This varied experience of almost three-quarters of a million owners has directed and aided General Motors of Canada, Lirnited, n the improvement of all its cars. This has aided in the determination of body styles, types and appointments. It has increased factors of safety, utility and comfort. By interpreting the needs and wishes of +his owner public throughout constant experiment and developinent, General Motors is able to build cars of well completeness 'And thus a vast and far-flung owner exper- ience makes ifs contribution to the out- standing values in General Motors cars.

The idea •of the round -up is to have the children medically examin- ed. Those who, at that time, are found to be in need of medical care sent to their doctor and their dentist for treatment in order that when they start school in the autumn they will be physically fit. Parents should not wait until the child is ready to go to school to have this done. However, if they neglect- ed this point, it is better to attend to it now than to wait until school op- ens. One of the commonest and most serious mistakes that parents make is to allotr an abnorMal condition to persist with the idea that the child will grow out of it, or that he is too young to have treatment. The child who cannot see without glasses is obviously handicapped un- til he has been fitted with proper glasses. The child who has a run- ning ear is almost surely on his way to deafness, which is a serious handi- cap, unless his ear is properly fitted. Children do not grow out of such conditions. • Not only are diseased tonsils and teeth a handicap to the child, but they are dangerous in that they poison the body and are, it is believed, very of- ten the cause of heart and kidney dis- ease in later life. No child should be handicapped by conditions which can be corrected by proper treatrnent. There should be no delay in securing treatment simp- ly because of the mistaken idea that the defects are not serious, or that the child is too young for treatment or that he will grow out ;of the de- fects.

MY NEIGHBOR'S YARD My neighbor has a larkspur' bed, Where white and blue and orchid blooms, Step daintily with lightsome tread, Like ladies in reception rooms, Whose guests are gathered for a ball, And soon the music will begin. The morning-glories climb the wall In round -eyed wonder at the din The ,bees are making in their ears. Beneath the overhanging eaves, The gracious roses—lovely dears— Have scattered fragrant scarlet leaves. No wonder that any neighbor stays In her own yard these summer days! Nancy Richey Ranson, in Good Housekeeping, Hospitality To be really' hospitable is a gift, which not everyone possesses. Are there not homes to which you go, that you feel so truly welcome? And what a comfortable, pleasant, sensa- tion it is. Sometitiles people are thoroughly welcome, but the host or hostess has not the gift of making one fed it, Hospitality must be sincere. Some- times, I think, there is too nirieli ef18- 41ai hospitality. 'Lip -hospitality' so to .8pea1t, Viet casual 'do come and see me sometime' is to be avoided. It rarely means much. No one should invite a person to their honte, unless t ey really ineau it, and truly want That is one of the tenets of my creed, to which 1 honestly try to live up to. When anyone is invited to our home, they may be sure we want them. We have considerable company, but try to avoid casual vis- itors in whom. we are not specially interested. There are some people, women 'es- pecially, whose idea o fhospitality is `Food.' Her first thought, when any company is coming, is `what can I give them to eat'. Haven't you been in homes, where just as soon as yon g• th o rn, e hostess immediately rushes off to get you something to eat? It always makes nee cross, when I have only a short time to spend with n friend, to have them spend most ;of that time in the kitchen, getting me a cup of tea. Now, I like good things to eat, just as well as the next ane, but I prefer less food and more •time with my friends. Most of ns like to give our fiends something to eat when they call. I suppose it is a continuation of the old idea cf sharing our bread and salt, with a friend. In order to do this easily, we should try to have some- thing in the house that is easy to get and quickly assembled. In the warm weather, it is very easy to serve a cool drink quickly. Have syrups ready, or even the bottled drinks. Do remember though, that it is not grac- ious licispitality to spend your time in the kitchen, 'instead of with your guest. Leaf Lettuce This is the season of leaf lettuc and how sweet and tender it is. Y have become so accustome4 to hea lettuce, that we rather miss its del cious crispness. So many people g out to the garden and cut their let tuce just before they are ready t use it. Possibly the sun is shinin brightly, and the lettuce is incline to be droopy and wilted instead o crisp. Lettuce should be washed covered tightly, and left in a coo place for a few hours, and it will ge much crisper. It may be wrappe in a damp cloth, or put in a covers tin. A lard or honey pail makes good lettuce container, Add Radishes Even the crispest leaf lettuce lacks that crunchy taste- of head lettuce Radishes, cut very thinly, and added to the salad supply this to a surpris- ing degree. At first, I used to add radishes, just to special salads but now I use them in a]rnost all salads with leaf lettuce, as they seem to un- obtrusively improve each salad. Spring Ambrosia Peel oranges, being sure to remove all the bitter white skin, cut in very thin slices with a sharpnenife. Place e slice of orange on a serving plate. Cover with sliced strawberries. Then sprinkle with sugar and shredded co- coanut. Repeat this, until the serv- ing is sufficiently large. Have the top layer cocoanut and garnish with a whole strawberry. Place in a cool place until thoroughly chilled. Shrimp Salad 2 cups shrimps diced 1?-: cups shredded pineapple cup diced celeryv 2 teaspoons lemon juice 2 tablespoons mayonnaise Toss together the shrimp, celery and pineapple. Moisten with lemon juice and mayonnaise. Serve on a bed of lettuce.

Such heat -lov- ing plants as the cucumber, melon, pepper and tomato showed the most substantial increases in yield. Haldimand County had a .Sheep Dipping Week early in June. In ad- dition to the dipping of sheep, fif- teen demonstrations in drenching of internal parasties were held. At these 15 points, 3069 sheep were dipped and about. 80 per cent. of these were treated for internal parasites. • Reports submitted by agricultural representatives show that practically all 'grains, including: fall wheat and spring grains, will be above average in yield. Old meadows are somewhat disappointing and yields of hay from them will not be as large as was an- tidepated. To counteract this, how- ever alfalfa gives promise of 'being above the average. New Weeds Appear The three weeds that stand out as the most troublesome are sow •thistle, coach grass and Canada thistle, al- , though each district has its own par- ticular pests. Sow thistle is partic- ularly bad in Ontario and the Prairie Provinces, where rich soil and mois- ture are favorable to its growth. In- spectors in ,Ontario are receiving le - ports on the prevalence of milkweed which may have to be added to the noxious list. Another that is attract- ing attention is elecampane, a coarse growing plant with rather attractive flowers which is seen on the road- sides and along fence rows. Fruit Crop Prospects P, W. Hodgetts, director of the Fruit Branch, states that while the bloom was ;extremely heavy every- where. in the province this year, this does not necessarily mewl a heavy ctop. Since the date of the bloom, reports on certain fruits have 'been received, indicating a light crop. For instance, sour cherries in most sec - ions have suffered , quite severely from frost injury at blossoin time and many large orchards lboth east and west will not have 15 per cent. of a set, Sweet cherries, on the other hand, ere a good crop.

Failure to render necessary assistance at the right time has resulted in loss and every calf and pig that dies makes it just that much more difficult for those that live to profit on the year's operation. The sooner young pigs get out in the sun the less danger of loss at three to five weeks of age. Cod liver oil may be fed to pigs as welill as chickens to ward off trouble. Canadian Cattle to Britain Canadian cattle evidently are find- ing a good market in Great Britain. While the number exported so far this year has been comparatively small, enough cattle have been ship- ped to prove that under present cir- cumstances this affords a good out - In a recent conference with fruit and vegetable growers in the Kingsville - Leamington area, Honourable Thos. L. Kennedy pointed out specific cases where losses had been sustained be- cause proper containers had not been used in sending fruit and vegetables West. Proper packing is also im- portant, he emphasized, and the ap- pearance of the packed product plays an important part in sales. He re- ferred to products brought into On- tario and selling to better advantage than Ontario -grown products of equal worth, simply because a the stylc of packing. 1.• Roosts For Young Birds Teaching chicks to roost at an ear- ly age tends to promote feather growth and helps materially in carry, j ing the chicks over the critical. let for Canadian fat cattle and stock per- ers.
