Weekly Crop Report Orchards in Dundas County are looking particularly well and pros- pects are for a good crop in well- ' handled orchards. A large number lofold orchards are being trimmed up and put in shape and will be 'sprayed this season for the first time in several years. Blossom time will be later this year owing to the backward season. Ihirhain County reports that orchardists in the Port Hope district purchased a carload of ammonia sulphate to supply their requirements this year. Fall wheat has never looked better than at the 1 present time, according to a report from I ialdiniand, but sweet clover, has suffered badly from heaving. In the Muskoka and Parry Sound dis- trict it is reported, that a much larg- er acreage of new lands has been cleared than usual, in fact more land than' has been cleared altogether in the past five years. Northumberland County. reports 1,000 acres of tom- atoes will be contracted at a con- tract price of 25c a bushel as com- pared with 3,000 acres at 50c a bu- shel in 1980.

Fertilizers have shown marked results in several ways: First of all in more and eralier gr.:wth, in im- plored quality of grass, less growth of weeds and increased resistance to drought. Pastures may be improved in sev- eral ways. An application of manure or commercial fertilizers is, perhaps,. the easiest r neth'.d of restoring old permanent pastures. Another meth- od is to reseed and disk or harrow. The most thorough practice is to break up the old pasture, build up the fertility and seed to 'a good pas- ture mixture. When the intention is to pasture meadows after one or two hay craps are removed (and this is general practice), seed of suitable pasture grasses should be included in the seeding. I Hints For Homebodies Written for The Advance -Times By jesie Alen Brown An Acquired Taste Did you know that a taste for maple syrup was acquired by one? I thought everyone liked it, just naturally, but it appears I am mis- taken. There are three Englishw o- men in the Bridge Club of which I am a member, and when someone mentioned maple syrup there was a regular groan went up from the Englishwomen. It appears they all had the same experience. The first spring they were in Canada, every- one tried to give them a treat, and wherever they went they were given maple syrup. It was fairly forced down them, in large, generous quan- tities. The consequence is that they shudder at the thought of it. The moral is: Go easy with your maple syrup with non -Canadians. Canadian Voices These same Englishwomen make me fairly green with envy every time I hear them speak, because their speaking voices are so lovely. They all speak nicely, but they might be graded, nice, nicer and nic- est. And • the "nicest" speaks so beautifully, that it is like listening to sweet music to hear her speak. It is most unfortunate, albeit, very true, that the majority of Canadian voices are so flat and uninteresting. The down Easterners, especially the Nova Scotians are the exception to this rule. Most of them have lovely COMFORT for COLICKY BABIES THROUGH ,CASTORIA'S GENTLE REGULATION The best way to prevent colic, doctors say, is to avoid gas in stomach and bowels by keeping the entire intestinal tract open, free from waste. But remember this: a tiny baby's tender little organ cannot stand harsh treatment. They must be gently urged. This is just' the time Castoria can help most. Castoria, you know, is made specially for babies and children. It is a pure vegetable preparation, perfectly harmless. It contains no harsh drugs, no wreaks. For years it has helped smothers through tnring times with colicky babies and children suffering with digestive, upsets, colds and fever. Keep genuine Castoria on hand, with the name: CAS TO RIA sfaraking voices. There is a 'shade;of difference even in the different 10- q calities. Halifax 'people speak very similarly and have a most plea,inu l accent. Lunenburg people speak !quits: differently andit is possible tag distinguish the Lunenburg accent . even though they have not lived there for some years. When 1 wvas in Halifax ever so many told me 1 slake very like Mrs. So -and -So, ;whose home had been in Guelph. A I had lived most of my life within forty miles of Guelph, 1 came to the c':.nclusion that there must be a Wellington accent. When I hear some of the appall- ing accents of our teachers, it makes any heart ache for the pupils who are under them. Voice culture could very properly be taught in the 'schools, but then I suppose there would be an outcry of `another frill.' Sugar We frequently hear of the great dietary changes there have been, ev- en in our time. One of the greatest changes is the .amazing consumption of sugar. A century ago, 8.8 pounds a person was the amount used, now the average' is 110 .pounds a person. Not all of that amount is used in ' the home as a certain amount of it is used in the manufacture of cand- ies, soft drinks, canned goods, con- densed milk and so on, but eventual- ly this food finds its way to some- one's 'tummy. These figures are fur American consumption, but our di- etary habits are about the same, and Canadian figures will be found to be very similar. Sugar (white) is a clean food, eas- ily assimilated, produces a large am- ount of energy, is germ proof, un- adulterated, and completely digested, leaving no residue. Therein lies one of its drawbacks. We need bulk and residue. It contains neither miner- als nor 'vitamins, and there is a real danger of too much of our energy comes from sugar.

A great part of the 3% bone -meal attraction of this particular cake is 1% salt the Lavishness of the icing. Here is 1% cod liver oil the recipe. 2 egg whites 1 cup water 2 cups granulated sugar 4 teaspoon cream of tartar Mix the ingredients in the top of the double boiler and cook over hot water beating with a Dover beater until the icing is of the right consis- tency to spread. This icing is often called Seven Minute Icing, because you are supposed to beat it for '7 minutes. Conditions may differ but I have never seen it cooked in seven minutes. It took much Ionger to cook this icing until it was firm en- ough to stand in peaks. If you wanted to spread it on smoothly, it need not be cooked quite so long. Spreading • the icing with peaks makes it more attractive looking. Vanilla or other flavoring should be added just before spreading, The cream of tartar strengthens the cells of the egg whites and helps it to hold its shape. This icing will not run, holds its shape, is firm on the outside and stays soft inside. Have your cake cold before spreading, To snake this cake I use any 2 egg recipe and use one whole egg and 2 egg yolks instead of the usual 2 eggs, This leaves 2 egg whites for the icing. Here is a very satisfact- ory recipe for a plain cake, cup butter 1 cup sugar 1 egg 2 egg yolks cup milk 11 dips flour 2:1 teapsoons baking powder teapsoon salt teapsoon vanilla Cream the butter and sugar.

When Iiquid milk can be had the milk powder is omitted. Weather permitting the chicks are • allowed on the ground as soon as they get used to their quarters, say by a week or ten days, and a little scratch grain is then added to the ration to keep thein busy. The brooder house is set in a Clo- ver field and is shifted weekly so that fresh geen feed may always be available and the ground clean.

It measured Gia inches in circumference the nar- row way and 7' inches the long way. Curiously the pullet did not do any special cackling about its ac- complishment.— Kincardine Review - Reporter. H.
