Accordingly, he presented at the ofice of.the Marconi Wireless Teleâ€" graph Company, Limited of London, yesterday a cheque for $1,000 on the Bankers‘® Trust Company, signed by himself and made out to the orâ€" der of the Radio Corporation of America. ‘ ENDORSE BUDGET At a caucus held April 19th the Progressive party unanimously enâ€" dorsed the Budget. REPORT PROGRESSIVES While the Government did not go as fdr in tariff reductions in some directions as the Western group had recommended, the cuts on automoâ€" biles were greater than expected, and there is great jubilation among Progressives as a result. $3,000,000 SUIT FOR PICTURE RIGHTS With the claim that the value of ber dramatic and motion picture rights in her play, "Abie‘s Irish Rose," is more ‘than _ $3,000,000 and that she has been damaged to the extent of $3,000,000 through plagerism in the motion picture, ‘The Cohens and the Kellys," Anne Nichols last week began suit in Fedâ€" eral Court in New York for $3,000, 000 damages and an injunction against the Universal Pictures Corâ€" poration of the United States, Carl Laemmle and Harry Pollard. Miss Nichols in her complaint charges that prior to November 17, 1924, she composed and wrote "Abie‘s Irish Rose," copyrighting the same, with the result that she became sole owner and proprietor of all dramatic and picture rights for a period of 28 years. She charges that while the Uniâ€" versal Corporation claims to have made the motion picture erititled ‘The Cohens and the Kellys" from a play by Aaron Hoffman entitled "Two Blocks Away," practically the whole motion picture is constructed cround her play. Barleyâ€"Malting, 62¢ to Buckwheatâ€"No. 2, 72¢ 64c b BACKWARD SPRING HOLDS UP SEEDING OPERATIONS Up to last Wednesday and Thurs day last week there was only one topic of conversation along the conâ€" cession lines in Ontario. Every perâ€" sop, young and old, complained about the backwardness of the seaâ€" son. Most farmers were prepared to start seeding three weeks ago, but, with frost every night, and snow piled along the fences, even in Cenâ€" tral~ Ontario, nothing, can be done but wait. A year ago ing operaâ€" tions were in full s from the Ottawa River to Lake|Huron. "Roads are practically impassable in Bruce County," writes W. K. Ridâ€" dell, Walkerton, in the Ontario Govâ€" ernment report, issued last week. "With about half the highways bare and the remainder buried up to five feet in snow, there is neither wheelâ€" ing nor sleighing." Down in the othâ€" er end of the Province, however, there is no decision; it is a case of sleighs or nothing. "It will be two to three weeks before all the snow is gone.". writes F. Larose, Plantagenet, of conditions in Presâ€" cott and Russell. "Meanwhile the cheese factories have opened, and some old farmers say that this is the first time in their experience that they have brought their milk cn sleighs to the factories. Condition of Crops Farmers are not worrying much about wintering wheat and clover in the eastern half of the Province. These crops are still protected by snow, but in Central Ontario and in the Southwestern Peninsula there is a different story. Cold, biting winds, which dry out the soil, followed by serious frosts every night, are probâ€" «bly causing considerable losses, though the damage will not be apâ€" parent until after growth has startâ€" ed. Outside the Niagara District no growth is noted, which is one fayâ€" orable factor. W. P. Macdonald, Lambton, states that rain would be welcome, as the wheat fields have become very dry. S. B. Stothers, in Huron County, believes that the present severe weather added to the fact that much of the wheat deâ€" veloped very little "top" last fall, will résult in some rather thin fields this summer. Baring a few acres of oats sown in isolated parts of Western Ontario and a litle rolling of meadows, no work is reported this spring. Even «praying. has been held up by the backward weather, it being imposâ€" sible.to get the heavy machines into the sodden Niagara orchards in many cases. Where drought reduced the yield of spring grains and hay last sumâ€" mer, some anxiety is being felt reâ€" carding the feed supply. "The late spring." writes. Mr. Macdonald of Lambton, is drawing heavily on the feed supplies, and much alfalfa hay bas had to be purchased ." In other parts of the Province here seems to be plenty of feed, hay being particuâ€" larly abundant in Eastern Ontario. All kinds of live stock seems to be in good demand at the spring aucâ€" tion sales. Spring hog litters are large, but the mortality is high. The lamb crop is exceptionally good. Eggs are not hatching well. Until very recently hatches of over 50 per cent. were rare. LAD MEETS HIS WATERLOO TRYING TO EAT 96 EGGS James _ Macaskill, a _ Kentville, N.S., youth with a large appetite, met his Waterloo when he attemptâ€" ed to eat eight dozen eggs on a wager. Macaskill consumed forty eggs but it took him an hour to do it, and he was forced to stop halfâ€" way through the meal. His backers urged him to eat softâ€"boilef@ eggs. pointing out that all recordâ€"breakers ate them soft. But James liked them fried. Macaskill achieved local fame during the winter when, as a memâ€" ber of a snowplow crew, he ate seventeen plates of beans and four loaves of bread at one sitting. Items of Interest to the _ Agriculturist Roads Are Bloc No Work Done Feed Supplies Planting More â€"Alfaifa Alfalfs seems to be the most popâ€" ular crop in the Province. From end to end farmers are discussing it, tures is unprecedented. One seedsâ€" man in Baden, Waterloo County, to date has sold 140 bushels of alfalfa sales for the season amounted to 40 bushels. Many farmers are sowing this crop on top of their wheat. FOOTâ€"ANDâ€"MOUTH DISEASE CHECKED BY SLAUGHTERING No effective preventive of footâ€" andâ€"mouth disease among animals has yet been discovered, and the slaughter of affected animals is still regarded as the best way of dealing with an outbreak of the disâ€" ease, so Lieut.â€"Col. Walter E. Gainâ€" ness, Minister of Agriculture, told a questioner in the House of Com:â€" mons in London, England, last week. ‘The Minister said the Reâ€" search Committee on the footâ€"andâ€" mouth disease was preparing a proâ€" gress report, which would be ready in due time. «in the winter time, the cluster of bees breaks up when the temperâ€" ature outside goes up around 45 deâ€" grees. This lowers the temperature of the cluster, and more stores have to be consumed to raise it again. The outside temperature, however, this winter was never high enough to allow the bees to get out and clean up the hive. In the North Country, on the other hand, the steady cold keeps the bees clusterâ€" ed together all the time, little stores are consumed, and â€" consequently there is but a small accumulation of waste." ONTARIO BEES FOUND WINTER SEVERE Ontario bees, like the househoider with a hungry furnace, have found the past winter more severe than usual. Losses have been heavy and large quantities of stores have been fed. It will be some time before the average colony will have recovered and be in a position to take full adâ€" vantage of the new honey flow. "There has been no real fly since October," explained W. A. Weir, Secretaryâ€"Treasurer, Ontario Honey Producers‘ Coâ€"Operative, "and as a result much waste has accumulated in the hive, and in many cases disease has followed. In older Onâ€" tario," Mr. Weir continued," where the weather fluctuates considerably FARM BINDER NOW NEARLY CENTURY OLD In North Amerf;a the first reapâ€" ers to attract attention were the McCormick and the Hussey. In 1831 Cyrus McCormick was givâ€" ing demonstrations with his reaper, Hussey brought out his machine, but without much success. In 1833 which employed the now familiar waveâ€"egee knife for the first time. Other early makes were the Burâ€" well, manufactured at Newcastle by E. A. Massey, and the Manny. The first reaper used in Ontario was probably a Hussey, imported into Hamilton Township by Daniel Mcâ€" Kyes in 1843. It was hard to draw, apt to choke in damp grain, and had to be driven at considerable speed. The MoCormick, which was used in the harvest of 1846 in the same disâ€" trict, worked more easily, but broke down frequently. With these early machines the grain was raked off the platform by hand. The first selfâ€" rakers were heavy and unsatisfacâ€" tory, but by 1850 the Woods selfâ€" rake reaper ,a fairly efficient maâ€" chine had been developed.
