These meetings were under the direction of the Ontario Dept. of Ag- riculture, Clinton, and were so arrang- ed as to cover the entire county. In all 825 farmers attended .these meet- ing making an average of 55 at, each of the following centres:— Clinton, Blyth, Dungannon, Auburn, Walton, Brussels, Wingharn, Fordwich, Wrox- eter, Belgrave, Varna, Hensel], Zar- ich, Crediton and Seaforth. Subjects dealing with Better Seed were discussed. The results 'of the seed drill survey made in the Prov- ince of Ontario would indicate that more care was necessary in prepara- tion of grain for seedin.g . In that sur- vey it was found that 34% of the seed being sown graded. rejected. This can be improved upon at little or no expense and methods of improvement' were recommended. The matter of standard varieties of grain was dealt with and farmers were strongly ad- vised to sow only reliable hone grown varieties that had yielded well under test, Control measures for smuts of cereal crops were given and methods outlined which. would check these dis- eases in such crops. The.weed sit- uation and the weed act were under discussion. Farmers throughout the county are realizing the necessity of co-operation and are ready to lend their support in making this Act now effective .and hence of greater value. Soil fertility touching on drainage, Crop ,rotations, fertilizers and lime, proved a very timely and interesting subject. Drainage forms the building stone of allsoil fertility work. Crop rotations play a large part in controll- ing weeds and disease and maintain- ing soil fertility, The'subject of coni. mercial fertilizer concerns almost ev- ery. fanner. Tonnage of fertilizer ap- plications is increasing annually and information relating - to comnmercial fertilizers proved of interest to all fainters' atcndting these meetings. The subjects of. Tetter Seed, Stan- darcl varieties, Stout control measures and the Weed Act were dealt with by NIT'. C. [.,. Toole, of Newmarket. Dis- cnssions int Soil Fertility problems were c' dealt with by G.

Each countryside will have' an Or- ganization of ,snow fighter's, ready like a city fire department to go out on short notice day or night, if the Plans outlined in a report to the AIn- „ea'icttit Road Builders' Association are carried out, . "Success depends on catching the snow before it is too deep or peeked solid by traffic," the: report explains. "Work should proceed on a definite Plan and' each man .know his duties. The important roads should"be open- ed up first. At the beginning of the snow season equipment should be placed at strategic points for snow, removal." Prevention of drifts is the greet- est reatest part of the program of snow - fighting. Engineers find that any- thing that causes a reduction in the velocity of the air carrying the snow will cause drifts, and recommend. variousmeasures from cutting weeds along the edge of the road to chang- ing the location of the road itself, if topographic features nearby cause the snow to pile up unavoidably on the highway. Temporat'y snow fences to make the snow drift in harmless places are found very efficient. if carefully plac- ed, the committee finds, and their use supplemented by scraping with. high speed trucks equipped with straight blade ploughs will keep traffice mov- ing through the winter, WILD CANARIES. Domestic Birds Sprang From a Spe- cies of Finch. Domestic canaries have been alter- ed to such an extent by hundredsof years of selective, breeding that their wild progenitors cannot, be positively identified. Their early history as cage -birds is obscure. It is generally supposed, however, that they sprang from a„.species of finch still found in. the wild state in the Canary Is- lands, as well as Madeira, off, the northwestern coast of Africa,. The wild birds in the Canary Is- lands are grayish brown, sometimes varied with brighter hues, but they never have the beautiful -plumage so common in the domestic varieties. According- to the usual story, sped - mens of these wild birds were cap- tured in the sixteenth century and domesticated : in Italy, whence they were ” taken to other parts: of the world. Canaries breed freely with the European goldfinch and certain other species, a fact which leads some authorities to believe that the domestic canary is the product of in- terbreeding and not the descendant of any one species. In the United States the common American gold- finch or thistle bird is sometimes called a "wild canary". This species, of course, is not :a canary at all, ELEPHANTS. Moving Ear Provides a Thermostat For the Body.. Those who enjoy the elephant acts. under the big top and visit the zoo on holidays have no doubt noticed that roost elephants continually wave their ears. The reason for this appar- ently unnecessary >motion ' has long been one of nature's mysteries. But now this has yielded to scientific study. The pachyderm wiggles his ears to keep cool. Researches made by Prof. Richard Hesse of the University of Bonn, Ger- many, showthat the mowing ear pro- vides a thermostat for the elephant's" body. Much blood circulates through the delicate membrane of their ears and is cooled by the moving air. The hotter it is the more rapidly the ears wiggle, Thug the waving elephant ear may be ` said to have the same duty as the panting of a dog, which draws cool rair over the plentiful blood supply of ; the tongue and mouth to take. away the 'excessive body heat. Where Husbands Do the Cooking. Husbands are the cooks and wives. the fishers and hunters in Barotse, a province. of • northern Africa. A1 - though there is a well -organized modern Government, the natives still observe some curious customs. It is no unusual eight to see a wo- man wandering in a stream and car- rying a big fish baeket. When she re- turns home,the husband does ' the cooking. .Then the wife sits down alone to dine, because, owing to hie superior 'strength, a man might be. tempted, to take the choicest pieces before the woman gets her share, An- other unwritten law le that when triplets are born, two of the babies Must be killed for good luck.
