CANADTAN FLAX For AEROPLANE • Word has been received at Ottawa that Colonel Wayland of the Canad- ian Expeditionary Forces has been requested by the War Office to imm- ediatelyproceed -to Canada to super- vise the distribution of fibre flax seed which 11 is anticipated will be urgen-• tly required in order to supply the manufacturing needs for aeroplanes in the near future.

Col. Wayland has been empowered to off- er suitable terms to farmers sowing 'this seed.

The Late Robert Brown In the death of Robert J. Brown on Sunday last, the community of Blyth, re- ceives a severe loss in one of their most energetic and progressive agriculturists, as well as a highly esteemed and much re- spected citizen He had been seriously ill for some weeks and for some days prior to his death, almost all hope of his recov ery was abandoned While his death wars not unexpected nevertheless the news was received with profound sadness through- out this section of the county. The late Robert Brown was born in the Township of Cartwright. Durham County and carne to Morris with his parents in 1591 and had resided on the homestead lot 11, con. 10 until the time of his de- mise.

IIe was married 23 years ago to Miss Alice Johnston, who with a family -of three, namely William, Harvey and Edna survive. Besides his family he leaves three brothers and two sisters, Messrs John, Morris; Isaac H„ Blyth; Charles of Deadwood, S., D.; Mrs, Wm Newcombe, North Battleford, Sask.; Mrs, Richard Scott, Blyth; all of whom have the sympathy of a wide circle of friends in their bereavement.
