Its value lies usually in the smallness of the portion that is ladled out for culinary use. Bu anyone possessing . a fine large clump of horseradish in his back garden is liable to wake up some fine morning and find it gone, lock, stock and barrel, or, as one might say, roots, stalk and flower. The midnight marauders who help themselves to horseradish roots do it thoroughly, and there are said to be quite a few instances where gardens have been pilfered of this pungent weed. Today you have it. but tomorrow you will probably find a gaping hole where the horse- radish grew yesterday. The greatest blessing right now in Western Canada would be pro- litic rain. The hazard of the farm- ing industry is a good deal great- er than the average city man sup- poses. | Lake Ontario is about as high now as it will be, Then, according to past experience, it will com- mence to recede, SUCCESSORS TO THOS MILIER & SONS Special Saturday Morning -.

TREASURE They who carry treasure Underneath the heart Are weighed in a measure And gently set apart.
