~; BHIIKEN DOWN IN HEALTH average householder sees the growing cost of living making serious in-roads into his pocket-book, he might well ask, can noth- ing be done, is there no substitute for some of the staple articles of the diet that will help keep the family expense account down? This is a burning problem today, one that earnest, painstaking, far-seeing men and women are studying; In the `lakes and rivers, of Ontario there are vast quantities of sh, _a natural asset referred to in governmental publications, but ap- parently not realized. by the public at large. Whitesh, salmon trout, herring--.- these are the best known varieties, and they make delectable eating. But picker- el, pike burbot, carp, perch, catsh and eels are also good for food when properly cooked. Compared with other meats, sh cannot be said to be one of the staple ar- ticles of diet on the tables .of this Prov- In these daysiof high prices, when th IJIDICB U1 IIICIJ IJII IJIJU VLILIIUD ~\IL IIILID I.

The 0:- ganization 'of Resources Committee, ap- pointed by the Legislature to devise ways and means to assist in meeting the prob- lems presented by the war, views with much concern the steady depletion in the world's food supply. So many countries are at war, so many men out of produc-- tion, and withal there is so much waste, that ere conditions in this direction get better they are sure [to get worse. Every citizen can help at this time. If we eat more sh we consume less meat .of other kinds. Beef and mutton and pork will go farther. Canada will have more to snip overseas, and besides, if we eat more sh, the cost of handling will be materially re- duced.

There should be no hesitancy on the part of the people of On- tario in taking _up this question and co- operating 'with those who are endeavoring to help the Allies win the war by con- serving our energy, which can. be done as well in the matter._of food conservation as in other ways equally important. , named Tiny, Tay and Floss. ;' they had a .place in the party during this , historic visit is uncertain.

On this `approach "to Richmond, which was partly through a swa.mp, his grateful sol- Idlers placed `split cedar planks over the slough, forming a causeway for his pass- age over. This was devotion only equalled by that of Sir Walter Raleigh, who threw his cloak in the mud for Queen Bess of England to pass over. Next day the Duke started for By-Town (now Ottawa city), down the Goodwood River, but was taken suddenly ill and died in an old log stable on the way, on August 25th, 1819, a year and one month after his appointment. The writer paid a visit to the town of Rich- imond in 1879 and had the privilege of I. meeting Mrs. Sergt. White, at. whose house the Duke stayed over'night' and where his remains were brought back next day. Mrs. White said that during the ev- ening the` Duke complained of a slight ill- ness, and refrained from playing with a favorite pup, saying, `Fido, I am too ill to {play with you tonight. Mrs. White also laid out the remains,_and she said she had never seen a more beautiful corpse in her life. ernor-General till the appointment of Lord Dalhousie, the Duke's successor. It will be remembered it was Sir Peregrine Mait- land and Lady Sarah who received Sir John Franklin, at Toronto, on the latter s visit in 1825. Numerous townships in Iarleton, Perth and Renfrew, as well as Simcoe, are named in honor of the various titles of the Duke of Richmond oand his daughter, Lady Sarah Maitland.

We pray that in.the eventide of his life he may still realize the presence of Him who com- forts and sustains in times of trials and afflictions.

Before the war is over some countries will be'in want for food. ,Nobody can foresee what will happen, but the plain fact is staring us in the face that a little patriotic co-operation by the peo- ple of Ontario may mean that the ex- portable .surplus of our foodstuffs may reach countries and ll months that would otherwise languish with hunger. It surely is not too much to ask at this time. Fish -is recommended by expert dietitians as a most desirable article of food, high in pro- teins, easily digested, one of the best to use during the summer months, and it can be made economical as well.

In Prince Edward 3. fair .crop is promised, but everywhere else is from a half crop to almost none at all. W. H. Gibson, the big apple grower in Newcastle district, counts on `a 50 per cent. crop: at Whitby demonstration orchard the same is looked for; Lambton, Norfolk, Brant, Col- lingwood and Toronto to Hamilton dis- tricts are all light. _ York county has very few early apples_ with good show of fall apples, while in Peel the reverse is the case.
