Celery was poor as a direct result of the season. 3 The cabbage display was good as‘it always is in the north country and was better than usual from one point of view. The exhibit did not contain so many of the overâ€"grown early cabâ€" bages, as in former years but was made up of the medium and later varieties in splendid solid heads. Parsnips owing to the season were much smaller and not so well formed. The beets were mixed. The winâ€" ners were excellent articles but quite a number of the exhibits were not worthy of a place. Turnips were poor both in shape and colouring which was mostly due Lettuee was generally better, it was larger than usual and at the same time tender and, well headed in the headed varieties.

Some of the asters were very fine but as a collection were not up to the mark of the last two years. they agreed that at the show in the King Edward Hotel there was no finer Dahlias exhibited than that exâ€" hibited by Mrs. Cronsberry. The cut flowers were exceptionally good and contained one of outstandâ€" ing beauty. That was a vase of Dahlias exhibited by Mrs. Cronsberry in which there was a golden yellow bloom of large size and perfect conâ€" formation. There were quite a numâ€" ber of people who are accustomed to seeing the very best in flowers who would walk around the hall but alâ€" ways come back to this flower. It was pointed out to Hon. Mr. Ferguâ€" son and his Secretary, Mr. Grant and The sweet peas too were a magntâ€" ficent show, large and beautifully coloured. ‘ Vegetables shown were of splendid quality in most eases although not up to the standard of last year which was due to the season. As the Hon. Howard Ferguson pointed out in his address to the members, this same condition existed all over the country and is not peculiar to Iroquois Falls. the old reliable horticultural show at [roquois Falls was also a good sueâ€" cess this year, as in past years. The Following report of the Iraquois Falls event is from this week‘s issue of The Broke Hustler:=â€" The Horticultural ~Society Exhibiâ€" tion on Thursday, September 9th, was good considerimg the season, in fact it was excellent except for one feaâ€" ture and that is there were not nearly as many exhibitors as in the past few years There are several reasons to account for itâ€"some of the largest garderiers of the town have movy ed aâ€" way but the chief reason seems to be that a great many former exhibitors who always put in large exhibits, spend their evenings in cars instead of in the gardens with the result that a large number have dropped out of the exhibition altogether. Timmins had a really: wonderful horticultural show on Labour Day,â€" a show as remarkable for the quality as for the number of the exhibits. People in the district were delighted with the show here, and all will be pleased and interested to know that FINE HORTIGULTURAL sHOW it iRopudis The North‘s" Town Beautiful Shows Quality in Its Flower Show.

Mr. Weston was on submarines operating along the Belgian coasts during the war. He has had a very wide experience in Morse signalling and also in semaâ€" phore work. He carries the British war medal, Victory, also the Mons Star. and the Oak Leaf, emblem for mention in despatches. He was reâ€" commended for the Croix de Guerre. For the better training of the Sea Cadets, Mr. Harry Nichols has turned the leadership over to Mr. Weston, Mr. Nichols finding that he will have enough to do to train the Sea Cadets Bugle Band. It is understood that Mr. Cyril T. Rossa, exâ€"service Navy man, is also going to assist in the Sea Cadets training.~ Accordingly the Sea Cadets will have four trainers who have ‘‘smelt the powder in the great war,‘‘ viz:â€"Messrs Weston, Cooke, Rossa and Nichols The latâ€" ter desceribes the Iour as, ‘‘all good salt fish from the briny." PBoys wishing to join up with the Sea Cadets, should apply to Mr. Wesâ€" ton;, No. 6 Union Coarl Cottage, opposite Eplett‘s dairy, Moneta, or to: Mr. Harry Nichols, 51 Fifth avenue. With the skilled and exâ€" perienced trainers now available, the Sea Cadets in Timmins should go aâ€" head rapidly and with much pleasure and advantage=to the boyvs. ACQUISITION TO THE LOCAL \/ SEA CADETS ORGANIZATION According to the Jewish history the Rosh Hashana marks the anniâ€" versary of the creation of the world, 5686 years ago, the present Rosh Hashana thus starting the beginning of the year 5687. The Jewish penple last week observed the opening of the new year by holidays, the synagogue being crowded for several services and the, people taking reflection and thoughtful‘ consideration on the imâ€" portance of the special season observâ€" ed. Kindly greetings were given one to another, and the Gentiles were not debarred from the pleasant feeling and the agreeable greetings with which the Jews open their new year. You can‘t keep as fit just fiddling around. In ,-’j\mmns. as elsewhere throughâ€" out thetworld, the‘ Jewish people are ob%ervmo the holiday season, which began w1th Rosh Hashana, or ~New Year‘s Day, on the evening of Wedâ€" nesday, Sept. 8th, and will end with the Shemnm Atzerethâ€"the feast of Conclusionâ€"on the evening of Sept. 30th. The onions sets were fine, clean and well exhibited but the seed onions were small and of not much account. Rhubarbh was past its best of course at this time ‘but showed an improveâ€" ment in quality over last year Swiss chard and other vegetables of this class were better than for the last year or two as they were a more reasonable size instead of being the size of shrubs. The baby contest caused a lot of excitement.â€" Dr. Young, Dr. Elliot and Miss Whitely ‘had charge of it and they were certainly healthy speâ€" cimens put up for medical examinaâ€" tion. Anyone of them could have won a prize any place else th'm Iroâ€" quois Falls. The only remark left to make about the h.xl)y show is that Dr. Dales is aceused of cowardice in taking his holidays while the show was on. JEWISH PEOPLE OBSERVE ‘BEGINNING OF NEW YEAR to the season. Carrots on the other hand. were an exceptionally fine display. Potatoes exhmbited were large and while there were one or two good exâ€" hibits, the majority of them were seabby. _ There is only one way to overcome scabâ€"the seed must. be soaked in formaldehyde mixture to kill the spores and they must be planted in ground which ‘has not already grown seabby potatoes as the spores of seab will remain in the ground for six or seven years and affect the seed which in itself is perfectly free. Tomatoes were poorer than last year which was easy to understand with the wet cold season when they should be getting their best growth.
