A Remarkable Potato Yield Mr. Joseph Stewart reports an in- teresting result from a late planting of potatoes at the Benmiller Nurser- ies. A bit of ground not larger than 1.2 feet by 12 feet was planted on August 7th. As will be remember- ed, August was very dry and there was practically no rain until the third week in September. The plot was pot artificially watered, but was well cultivated. Late in October, eleven weeks after planting, over ten bushels of a good sanaPle of potatoes were gathered. If our arithmetic is not at fault, this figures out at the rate of about 3,000 bushels to the acre. The potatoes were of the Irish Cobbler variety.---Goderich 111 in VancouTer. Mrs, Harry ,Guttridge, of Vancou- ver, is very ill and her recovery is doubtful. Her maiden name was Miss Bessie Stoneman and she is a daugh- ten of the late John Stoneman. Mr. and Mrs. Guttridge after their mar- riage, lived in Mitchell for some years before going to Vancouver.— Mitchell Advocate, Disastrous Experiment !Mose Robins, clothing merchant and exporter of fish, a few days ago sought to find out just how much Lake Huron's finest trout would bring on the New York :market, so he made a test shipment and now has the in- formation, to his sorrow. The fish, the finest caught this year, netted him just 21/2 cents a pound. He ship- ped 110 pounds and the commission house allowed him 10 cents a pound. or $11.00. But here are the deduc- tions: Commission, $1.65; express, $4.23; duty, $1.65; cartage, 25 cents; exchange and discount on cheque, 30 cents, or $8.08 all told, netting $2.92 for 100 pounds of fish. This, of course, does not allow anything for the labor of packing, to say nothing about the fishermen. Mr. Robins es- tablished, however, that it doesn't pay to ship fish to New York at the pres- ent time.—Goderich Star. Sold Exhibits Mr, Eph. Snell was another Huron stockman who exhibitedat the Royal. He took nine of his Leicesters and succeeded in obtaining several prizes. He also sold his stock to a breeder from e United -States and some of the animals will be exhibited at the Pennsylvania State Fair. Recently Mr. Snell made a sale of a number of animals to the Quebec Government. —Clinton News -Record.

Let Your Sons Do A Little Housework Our sons are the husbands of to- morrow. As their mothers have edu- cated them, so they will behave to- ward their future. wives. Therefore, if this education is correct, the re- sults will be beneficial to more than one generation. Only yesterday the association be- tween son and housework would have Leen ridiculous. Dven the smallest service in the household was consid- ered degacling to masculinity. The husband who did not dee-61 it below his masculine dignity to lend the wife a helping hand about the house was delinitelST looked upon as hen- pecl,ed. But times change and our modes change along with them. The war has taught many a man how useful it i to know how to handle pots and pans. Under the prevailing economic conditions, a little culinary knowledge is a boon not only to the bachelor but also to the husband. Illness or the absence of his wife, and especially profiessional occupatiOns, often oblige him .to provide for himself. Would it not be better then, to start in time and give your growing - up son an idea of how to behave at the kitchen range, and in the hun- dred little emergencies of which the job of the housewife is made up? It need not be a course in domestic sci- ence. but our efforts in this direction should ..be persistent and systematic. And why shouldn't the son occas- ionally make hised or tidy up his room on a Sunday morning, when the family is hurrying to get ready for the picnic? Households with servants are scarce nowadays and ev- en the people who can afforo them don't know how much longer they will be able, to. Independence in the. hom6 — this shoulcl he the slogan for our sons. The modern woman. especially if she pursues her own professional career, does not want a parasite who ex- pects to be waited upon all the time, but a responsible collaboratm. If you bring up your sons in this spirit, they will not consider it degrading to help mother or sister, and later the wife, in her household duties. Start early by giving the young- ster some easy little tasks to perform and you will thus create a .habit that. will help to overcome the obstinacy and sauciness of the older boy. The latter, can often be influenced by ap- pealing to his chivalry. After all, mother and sister are women, and a real man should never accept menial services from them. ' We need practical husbands who can understand and appreciate the duties and .burdens of their wives. Peru's most important agricultural crop is cotton. The total potato acreage of the United States this year is estimated at 3.223,000 acres, and the total crop at. 3'8,000,000 bushels,. December is the harvest month of such widely separated countries as Burma in Asia and Argentina in South America. Crops upon hundreds of thousands of acres were saved last year through the campaigns against the pale west- ern cutworm. Canada has achieved rapid 'pro- gress in recent years in exports of patent leather. The English alsike crop is always small and insignificant.. If supplies were available, says the .Comrrnercial Intelligence Journal, one imPprter states that he would purchase from .Canada exclusively. Beauty Parlors for Dairy Cows An important' step in clean milk production is to clip the udders, hips and flanks -of the cows, thus making the daily lirushing much easier and more effective. Clipping of the tail, head, neck and shoulders adds to the appearance of the cows, and aids in getting. rid of lice, which will multi- ply quickly at this time if not prat-mi.- ly eradicated. A good wet or pow- der shampoo repeated in ten dayr time will do the trick, .
