There is a demand for certified seed potatoes in the county, although indications point to a reduction in the use of tertilizer. . York county reports that there is no surface drainage, the land soak- ing. in all moisture. Many farmers are still hauling water for their stock and thus a good rain will be very helpful in stimulating the flow of water from the wells, ! The general report for the whole province indicates that all wheat and seedings of alfalfa and clovers are in much better condition than at this time last year, deu to the cover- ing of snow remaining on the crops longer than in most years. Large supplies of feeder cattle are on hand. In most parts of the province eggs have reached the lowest values in many years. Indications are that the yield of maple syrup will be be- low previous years, Plenty of farm labor is available, there being suf- ficient local help in practically every county to supply the demahd, ' COUNTY SELLS ITS DEBENTURES Price of 102.31 Paid by Mil- ner-Ross Co. of Toronto for $40,000 Issue pi It was learned this morning that the County of Ontario had dispos- ed of debentures to the amount of $40,000 to Milner-Ross Co., of To- ronto for the record price of 102.- 31.

The great work of the Army was to try to bring happiness to others, the Ensign said, and he quoted a message sent by the general to every corps in the world on the oc- casion of one of the Army's anni- versaries, the message reading sim- ply "Others." The social work of the Salvation Army was not its only work, al- though it was perhaps the most im- portant branch. The world-wide or- ganization did a great service in locating missing people, sometimes succeeding when all other attempts failed." "In our work, we ask no one what hig religion is." the speak- er commented. "Ono might term the Army 'The Army of bridge builders,' for we try to bridge the causes of unhap- piness," the speaker proceeded. People who were down and out, were reclaimed and put back on the road to decent citizenship, while much was done in the way of pri- son work, women's social work, and in many other activities. Link in Great Chain The Oshawa corps was just one link in a chain that reached all around the world, the speaker said.

One constable is in hos- pital with a broken leg and body and facial injuries, while another is suffering severely from shock. Shortly after midnight eorge Fields reported his motorcar stol- en. Motorcycle Officer John Arno spotted the car, travelling at a high speed on Paradise Road and the driver, seeing the officer, attempt- ed to swerve into the entrance of McMaster University, but instead turned the vehicle into 4 boggy lane.

The city will have to be entirely rebuilt, With Marines and National Guard troops retaining martial law, all the available man power was mobilized to fight the flames and take the aead and injured from the ruined residence sections. It was impossible to place an accurate estimate on the number of dead, but between five hundred and one thousand persons are be- lieved to have been killed and two thousand wounded . in the shocks, eleven of which occurred in a short space of two minutes before noon yesterday. So far as is known, there is not habitable building left in the once beautiful Central American city, second in size in the repub- lie, Both the British and United States legations are in ruins.

Orders have been issued to shoot looters on sight, Many bodies are buried beneath crumbled stone walls and probably many have been killed in the flames. A com- plete check will not be possible until the blaze has been quelled and the rescued squads dig through the debris, There is a possibility that mountain villages, from which all communication has been dislocated, may also have suffered.

However, the drop this | year is not as marked as it was a| year ago. The total collections for the year were $2943839.09, while those of a year ago totalled $5,529,- 200.99. This Indicates that there was a falling off of $2,535,36190 in the collections this year as conrpared with last year. The total collections for the month of March 1931 show a total of $325,- 146.18. This total was made up of import duties to the amount of $287, 990.95; excisé dutics amounting to $37,010. 98. Sundry duties amounted to $111.25 and exvice duties $27.00. As time passes the signs of the approach of spring multiply with leaps and bounds. It has becn rather hard this year to forecast the weather that the peop'e of this dection of the proviice may roa- sonably expect to experience With a more than ordinacily mild win- ter, that was characterized hy a great deal of mild weather, it is not the easiest thing to say that the weather from .now on will be much the same as it has been in other years. Last year for exam- ple, gave us a fine warm Easter that was a real pleasure. This year, however, Kaster comes a ljt- tle earlier and may not live up to the standard set last year, In any event those who are in a po- sition to be affected by the vagar- les of atmospheric conditions are taking an optimistic viewpout. The most noticeable of th: steps that are heing taken in prepara- tion for spring and warm weather, is the removal of the snow fences that are erected each fall along the provincial highways in order to keep the roads reasonably open for vehicular traffic. The provin- clal highways must be fairly well assured that there will be no re- currence of the blizzard of the Removal of Snow Fences Taken As Sign of Spring, Consus res 439,644.69 eighth of March, otherwise they would not throw. the travelling public at the mercy of the , ele- ments and a possible tie up. Another sure sign of the re- turn of the warmer weather is the advent of sucker fishing, which has proved a magnetic force in the lives of the" youth along the lake front for years. While there are not as many suckers running now as in years past there are still enough to keep many men and boys from beds these cold nights in the hope of netting at least a fow of the finny tribe. Before passing from the sub- ject of sucker fishing, it is inter esting to note that sucker fishing has heen prohibited in the counties of Victoria, Peterboro, Durham and Northumberland and the wa- ters of the Trent River during April and May by special regula- tions enacted by the province. However, all other parts of the province are free as regards suck- er fishing, the only restrictions he- ing that the use of artificial lights for the taking of. fish is partieu- larly prohibited. Nets uged in the catching of suckers must not ex- ceed in size six feet square and six feet in diameter without a license, Several local fishing enthusiasts are now preparing to try their luck in catching pike. Trolls, poles and reels are being brought forth from attic store rooms while lines are be- ing tested to determine their strength, Although pike is regarded by many as a game fish, it has never received the protection which strict game Fishing Enthusiasts Are Preparing to 1ry Their Luck In Catching Pike laws have afforded trout and bass, For this reason possibly the fish are not as plentiful as they were at one time. A favorite spot for fishing pike is Whitby: harbor and last year a num- ber of good-sized fish were taken from its waters. But the catches are few and small in size when com- pared to those which were secured at the harbor over 20 years ago. ) $515,681,51 for March | year 1929-1930 is as follows: With this total for the month of March may be compared the total of 1930.

K. Creighton, reserv- ed judgment for one week, when William Frederick, 732 Albert Street was given a new trial on a charge o selling liquor. On June 29, 1929, Frederick had been 'convicted on the charge by the late Major A. F, Hind, then police magistrate, The case was wpealed by D. A. J. Swanson, de- fence counsel, and came before the appelate - division at Osgoode Hall, which ordered the new trial. William Ferguson, the key witness for the Crown, was largely respon- sible for the protraction:of the case this morning. Ferguson was very hazy when it came to remembering incidents which occurred on June 19, 1929, the day on which he was ar- rested for having alcohol in his pos- session. Ferguson, it was alleged, had purchased the alcohol from Frederick, and when the latier was tried before Magisteate Hind, he had admitted in court that the liquor had been obtained at the house of the accused.

West and north of the Mattawa and French , Rivers, including Manitoulin Island, hunting deer with dogs will be banned, and scuth and east of these rivers dogs will be allowed to run with deer as the regulations now pro- vide, "This is the chief rrovision iu the amendments," said Hon, V McCrea.

B. J. McCormick, wharfinger. Indications point to a busy season at this port this year. An increased freight service will bo given Oshawa this yoar by the. Tree Line Navagation Co., it was announced yesterday by Norman Moore, freight traffic representhe tive of the company, who was in the city inepecting the warehouse and other property of the company. Mr. Moore promised to nitify Col. Me« Cormick within a few days, as to the date when the first Tree Line ship would call at Oshawa. An fn- dieation of the faith that this come pany has in the recovery of business is shown by the fact that they have given a ten months' contract to all. thelr masters and engineers, im place of hiring them on a monthly basis as was tho case last year, The steamer Vally Camp is ex+ pected to arive in Oshawa as soon as Welland Canal navigation opens, This ship delivered a load of conlat Port Colbourn yesterday, and 1s Yee turning to Ashtabula, Ohio, where it will take on a cargo for Oshawa. | As soon as it can get through the Welland Canal it will clear for this port. . Welland Canal navigation is exe pected to open by April 15, and it may open before that date. This is the first season in the memory of the oldest mariners when every one of the Great Lakes has been free of ice and ready for navigation by April 1, and the official opening of navigation may be considerably earlier than usual, The Oshawa port authorities, it is expected will carry out the time- honored tradition of presenting ® new hat to the master of the first ship to enter the harbor. The mayor is expected to make the presenta tion, Channel buoys will be placed i% the harbor as soon as the public works department's boat Conere« tia, has been fitter out, according to a letter received by Col. McCormick from Hon. H. Stewart, minister of public works. This boat may reach Oshawa some time this week. : The engineers of the department have sounded the harbor and report d uniform depth of 14 feet. This is 214 feet less than the depth last, year, but this is entirely due to a lower water level of the lake, and all harbors on Lake Ontario are in the same position.
