Page Eight THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, THURSDAY, JUNE 14th, 1928 Keep an eye on your "Spare" WHAT'S the good of a "spare" if it won't take you home when you need it? Just because it hasn't been on the road much is no guarantee that it is fit for work. The rain may have run inside and rusted the rim. The dust may have crept in. The tire may have picked up nail ends or flints when you used it last, and a few more miles will force them through the casing. It may not be inflated up to its correct running pressure. Drop in for a free inspection of your tires, including the spare. You are never far away from a & DOMINION TIRE DEPOT W. J.

Ontario, their Lordships lear the end of the lengthy judgment lay: "It may be that new laws will ham-ier the freedom of the Roman Cath-ilics in their denominational schools. Phey may conceivably .lie or have been subjected to injustice of the kind that they can submit to the Governor-Gen-eral-in-Council and through him to the Parliament of Canada." The Judical Committee of the Privy Council to-day dismissed the appeal of the Roman Catholic School Trustees of Tiny Township, Ontario, from the adverse decisions in the Canadian Courts on their claims against the Province of Ontario. Representing all Ontario Separate Schools, the appellants had contended that certain sections of the Ontario Educational Act were ultra vires, that Roman Catholics had a right to establish Separate H. S. and Collegiates, that Roman Catholic School supporters were not bound to contribute to the upkeep of undenominational high schools and collegiates, and that they were entitled to share on the basis of the average of attendance in public grants to schools. (62) Quebec.--When the 1928 shipping season opened here April 22, the Canadian Pacific St. Lawrence fleet supplied fifty per cent, of the steamers that docked with S.S. Montclare. Montroyal and Melita. The three ships carried "in rOund figures 2300 immigrants aboard mostly of British stock and destined to farms in the West. International Advertising Convention and Exposition to be held at Detroit, July 8-12, is already attracting wide notice and will contain under one roof everything relating to organized advertising in every phase. Advertising men from overseas will attend and bookings are being made on Canadian Pacific liners from Great Britain and Europe well ahead of time in view of the large demand for travel that will arise. Sixty-five miles of salmon fishing in the Cains River, New Brunswick, were enjoyed recently by five anglers from Chicago and the U. S. Middle West and by a party of New York newspapermen,. including \V. McGeehan. internationally known New York Herald-Tribune sports writer. Both parties were staying for about a fortnight in the care of Harry Allen, well known New Brunswick guide. They travelled Canadian Pacific to their fishing destination. Okanagan. -- Word is received from Washington that the Okanagan project, during the last year, had a higher per acre yield of apples and a consequent higher acre return to the grower, than any government irrigation project in the United States. The local project, with 3.567 acres in apples, has a yield of 35,1 12,750 pounds, or 9,852 pounds to the acre, a yield which brought the growers a return of $1,030,854, or the high record price of $289 an acre. On the Yakima project the average yield was <. fii)2 pounds to the acre or at the rate of $246.16 per acre.

Ottawa. -- The Department of Agriculture has issued a report showing how the Canadian "Moth" plane is combatting wheat rust-- how the Canadian Air Force, the Federal Department of Agriculture and the pathological plant of the Manitoba Agricultural College at Winnipeg are uniting to fight the enemy. The report says: "The work consists mainly in the exposure of slides at different altitudes and at different locations. These aeroplane exposures attempt to collect from altitudes of from 1,000 to 5,000 feet the date of i'ne earliest appearance of rust scores, the region over which they firsi appear, the rate at which the spore content of the air increases over various regions, the visibility of spores caught at these higher altitudes and the relation of certain environmental and climatic factors to the rate of development and spread of rust. Tightly stoppered bottles are used, containing wooden paddles to which are attached microscopic slides lightly .smeared with vaseline. These slides are exposed for 15 minutes at varying altitudes; the slides replaced in the bottles and then re-Government laboia- ■)TJ W in AGENCY FROST & WOOD FARM IMPLEMENTS C. T.

They have found tbat^dvertising pays. ■But some of them would be more progressive if they'd advertise consistently. They advertise when business is good, of course. But they decrease their advertising or eliminate it altogether when business is not so good. This is just the opposite of what should be the case. The time to vertise more than ever is when business is not so good. That's the way to make it good again--to advertise. John Wannamaker made millions as a retail mechant. Of newspaper advertising he said: "'When the times are hard and the people are not buying is the very time that advertising should be heaviest. You want to get the people in to see what, you have to sell, and you must advertise to do that. Wlhen the times are good they will come largely of their accord, but I believe in advertising all the time. I never stop advertising."
