I`! `Leave In fact, the acute weed situation has been brought about by the advent of the-auto. In days of ho_rse transportatiomcattle and sheep in particular roamed the highways and destroy- ed most of the weeds. These days, of course, are now practically passed, although there are still some isolated sections, away from the highways, where cattle and sheep still r n at large and the roadsides are particularly fr e from weeds. _I~O0~o~o~o JOOO1 {`OONPIOvI~ M L `WOO -IO E34 Toron E "I"`: 9W9/7| bfor Estock J.

The provincial highways have been pretty well cleaned up, the county `fairly well, but there are miles ofsideroads in the town- ships literally running wild with weeds; in Bar- rie the town itself has not yet cut all its weeds on its own vacant property.

We asked a farmer at the market last Satur- . clay how the new Noxiousweed Act was work-- ing out. -lt isn't, he replied tersely, meaning, presumably, that it isn't working out. `He ex- plained that this and the few weeks following constitute the critical time, for the weeds are going to seed. With the harvest on it is the bus- iest time of the yearfor the farmer and help is` scarce. Thequestion t erefore was, who is going to cut the weeds an when? There was no use cutting th_em between hay and harvest, for they would only grow again, although perhaps not to the same extent, depending of course on the weed. ,,- _.-_I!_-..l - __-_.. -...- A...-I WESTERN CROP PREDICTED OUR PARKING PROBLEM \ `RADIO lN'FA_.B.NOR1_'l'_l - , - Role of Wllfeekly Newspaper A `Speaking of the visit of the Canadian" Weekly Press to_ Edmonton. the Bulletin said: the weekly newspaperis one of the important institutions of V Canadax `Because Canada is a country where cities ' I are few. and dailies correspondinglytfew, the eld for the weekly paper is large. and its opportunities for serving and inuencing"-The social," political and ii business condi`tion~s are '_in keeping.

Advertisingexperts have long since `come to the conclusion that the soundest advertising is lnewspaper advertising. What newspaper advertis- ing cannot sell nothing else will. Whitby Gazette and Chro_nic1e-The County of Simcoe has decided to abandon the policy of patch- work road building-'~.-a little here and a little there -and from now on only permanent work will be undertaken. Modern power machinery is to be pur- { chased. andthe Roads Commission will concentrate ' on stretches of three, -ve and even ten miles, and ' build a real road-and be done with it. We venture to predict that while the county will have totspend l a lot of money. in the end it will save, because for every dollar expended there will be something-to show`.

When is Mid-' land s-'band going to blossom forth again?" The death of Hal. B. Donly of Simcoe on Tuesday of this week removed one who for many years held a prominent place in Canadian lnewspaperdom. The Simcoe Reformer under his editorship made a name for itself as one of the foremost weeklies of the Dominion, a` place that it s-till holds under the direction of its pre- sent owner, Mr. Pearce. Among his fellow newspapermen Mr. Donly was held in high and cordial regard and he was`. twice honored with thepresidency of the Canadian Press Associa- tion, a worthy recognition of the man and his work. - - A lawyer who appeared in a court room in white ducks was recently refused_ permission to -address the Bench and a reporter in shirt s1eev- ' es was chased from ,a court room and now com-. es the news from Meaford that the Mayor of that town presided over the last council meet-` ing attired ina red blazer. This news issufficient * to shock the county councillors of Simcoe and York into insensibility. But there is a redeem- ing feature to the trend of the times-_few wo-g men are yet installed in the seats of the mighty. The Midland Free Press says: `Whi1e the County of S,,imcoe would lose a Dominion-wide attraction by the closing of Camp Borden, there is no doubt a more suitable grounds can now be secured to meet the new conditions. The Free Press neglects to state, however,.just what isunsuitable about the Camp Borden grounds `and what are the new conditions that necessi-. tate the scrapping of such a valuable property. AvEuropean who has lived seventeen years in Canada recently gave evidence through an interpreter in a Northern Ontario court. It is truly remarkable how many Canadians of for-. eign birth whose `English fails them in a law court and even more remarkable how sudden- ly it returns to them after the case is over. The Midland "woman who backed her car out of the garage and knocked over a _ladder on w=hich her husband was standing cleaning the upper half of a window was indeed adding I insult to injury. Lack ofbforethought was sure- ly shown, because she might have been incap- acitated from doing the dishes.

With favorable weather from now on, _We_s-~ tern Canada should reap a record harvest this year. Such was the opinion expressedto the editor of The Examiner by representative men last week as he was returning from the Pacific Coast and this opinion was borne out by per- sonal observation. In Alberta and Saskatchew- a-n particularly the crops looked in splendid shape. Weatlier conditions generally were good and little rust was reported. Manitoba also had the appearance `of a heavy yield though. evi- j dences were not lacking of an over abundance ` of rain. Some sections of the prairies have been hit by storms and hail, as is the case every year, yet competent estimators are confidently pre- dicting a total yield of five hundred million bushels of wheat. If this is realized it will be considerable of an advance over the previous high for all time, which was 474,000,000 bush- els in 1923. With a heavy yield this might be expected as the area seeded" is some two mil- lion acres greater than last year. i In Aihnvfn nlnnn H uyno Crnnin cl-C-Ar` 431:0 ..--_ v-vau`Uv.IIIUOVlll In the morning his mother call-' ed him as usual, but got no an- swer.

Thequestron was dealt with 111 a recent 15- sue of The Street Cleaner a municipal publi- cation issued in New York. Apparently they have parking problems in New York also, for the publication says: When the parking area was opened and the time limit placed on parking in the street, some interesting facts came to light. It was found that most of the con- gestion on the streets had been due to the all day parking of cars by merchants, em- ployees and professional men. The time limit eliminated 90percent. of the parking trouble. The Examiner patrolled two blocks last.Sat- urday afternoon during a tie`-up. It wasdue to lack of familiarity of strangers with the parallel parking law. This is well observed by citizens, but the parking limit is not. The same survey revealed that a large proportion of cars on Dunlop and Elizabeth streets belonged to_ peo- ple who are-in the habit of parking on the main thoroughfaresfor unreasonable lengths of time-some practically all day, thus actually making it `harder for visitors and others to do business with them.
