THE RIVER MAITLAND AGAIN GOES ON
' THE ANNUAL SPRING RAMPAGE
'The extreme mild weather of the
past week naused the river Maitland
te rise gradually and it looked for a
while that the flood menace Would be
averted this year. But the heavy all
night rain of last Saturday shattered
that hope and by Sunday evening
had raised the waters of the river to
alarming heights, the peak being
reached about three o'clock Monday
morning, being somewhat higher than
it has been for some years.
In the upper branch of the river,
north of the town, the ice broke and
for sorne time threatened the C. P. R.
bridge by jamming against it until the
ice was practically as high as the brid-
ge itself. While no damage has been
teported the trains and out of town
have been crossing the structure very
slow until such time as they are as-
sured it is still in a safe condition.
On the lower branch and in Lower
Winghein the water was very bigh.
The gravel road reading to Belgrave
was closed to traffic, with the water
running two to three feet across the
road. The water reaching the, Yoeng
Garage at the south end of Josephine
street, In Lower Wingham the flood
had reached such heights as to again
•enter the homes near the river, and
at its peak was running over the road
north of the Turnberry Agricultural
Society grotiods, about 200 yards from
the river bed. To do this it means
that the river must rise about twelve
to fourteen feet.
However, with the ice broken tns
and the river now clear it has grad-
ually receded and with a little colder
weather being assured the worst for
this year is now over.
On the C. N. R, between Wingham
and .Whitechurch the swollen waters
caused a small washout, but not en-
ough to stop 'the traffic but make it
necessary for the- train to go very
slowly in crossing.

SPECIAL WEED, SEED AND
FERTILIZER MEETINGS
• For Farmers of •Belgrave and
Wingham Districts
A meeting dealing with weeds, seed.
and fertilizers will be held in the
Town Hall, •Wingham, Saturday af-
ternoon, March 1st, at 2 p.m. and one
in Foresters' Hall, Belgrave;
day afternoon, March 5th, at 2 p.m.
The weed menace is one of the
most serious problems facing the
farmer to -day. The Weed Act now
in effect in the Province was made
necessary due to the increasing num-
ber of weeds and the widespread loss
they were causing. Through these
meetings, we hope to make „everyone
more familiar with the clauses*ol the
-Act and to point out the necessity oE
united action on the part of every
farmer. This goes in hand with better
seed grain and modern eeed cleaning
practices. The s-ubject of commercial
fertilizers concerns almost every far-
mer, but there are many poifits in
selection of fertilizers which are not
well Understood. Many' high analysis,
high priced fertilizers iney not rettern
any greater profit than dne of low-
er price. We must know what a fer-
tilizer contains, what each crop need,
the nature of the fertilization require-
ments for different soil types. These
with other factors are essential before
we can be sure that the right kind
of fertilizer is being sown.
Three subjects, weeds; seed and fer-
tilizers will be discussed in detail and
will be under the direction of the On-
tario Dept. of Agriculture. Chilton,
assisted by Mr. • C. •E. Toole, New-

FINE FARIVI 'HOUSE BURNED
Abont 8 o'clock Tuesday afternoon
of last week, while he was in Gorrie,
Harris Spotton was informed that his
house at Orange Hill was on fire. By
the tirite he and neighbors artived on
the scene the main part of the house
and the contents were doomed, but
they contrived to save the kitchen,
which was of stone, also the -wood-
shed. This house, when in its prime,
was considered one of the best in the
district. The origin of the fire is un-
known. When Harris left for Gorrie
he left a block in ,the stove, as was
his custom, so it is assumed this in
some way caused the disaster, We un-
derstand insurance was carried in the

KINCARDINE SENIORS APPLY KALSOMINE
TO WINGHAM AND WIN THE GROUP
The sailoes from Kincardine were
more at hone in the water -covered,,
ice ,in \gingham Arena on Wednes-
day night, than the local boys, and
went home with two brooms to the
masthead. A splendid crowd turned
out foe the fray, but not even the
music of the band nor the chatter and
exertions of the fair rooter brigade,
could hold the battlers in check.
'When play started small pools of
water dotted the ice here and. there,
a condition that became worse as the
play progressed, and made good hoc-
key an impossibility:- The players in-
variably over -skated the puck, while
accurate passing or shooting was im-
possible.
For two periods the boys battled
through the heavy going unable to
find an opening, with peehaps a little
advantage to the visitors. 'In the third
period our boys forced the play, arid
only the excellent „work of Ross in
goal saved the situation. In one of
the sudden rushes to the Wingham
goal McDonald got the puck, and on
a long side shot slipped one past Mc-
Gee. About ten minutes afterwards
Brick made a lumbering charge down
the centre, passed the puck and in a
scrimmage in front "of the goal just
shoved the puck in. From that time
on they loafed and played to kill
time.
Rocher handled the game with im-
partiality, handing out penalties when
deserved, but was busier watching
offsides.
The locals donned new suits for
his affair. The sweaters are black
with a wide white band edged viiith a
narrow black stripe; and the stock-
ings are a regulation black and white
