better and more profit able methods tthan many have followed a demonstration woodlot sign has been placed on the pro perty near the road a well stocked woodlot composed of valuable trees is recognized generally as a very valuable asset to a v farm the owner has a con venient supply of fuel and timber that may be secured without making a cash outlay many farmers are short ot fuel because they or previous owners have destroyed all the woodland on the farm by pastur ing and cutting scattered woodland also has a beneficial effect on crops and living conditions in a district they are effective windbreaks that protect the wheat and clover during the winter and the grain crops from the hot drying winds of summer mr petersons woodlot has not been pastured for fourteen years and as a result of this protection there are plenty of saplings 10 15 high that will fill the space left when the large trees are removed these saplings guarantee another crop of trees and they were secured by cooperating with nature pastur ed woodlots present an entirely different picture the stock brouse off the seedlings injure the sap lings and the roots of the large trees it means the gradual deter ioration and the eventual disappear ance of a small woodlot the woodlot is largely hardwood with sugar maple and beech pre dominating there aro also valuable white ash white pine and bass- wood and these will provide lum ber for special purposes poplar and ironwood make up a small per centage of the stand but they are considered weeds when compared to the more valuable maple white ash and white pine sufficient wood for the farm house is cut annually single large trees or small groups of large trees are cut by this method no large openings are made the beech ironwood and poplar are cut as much as possible as it is desired to have a larger percentage of the more valuable ash and maple opening up of the crown gives the small sap lings a better chance later they will bo thlnnedand the maple and ash will be favoured over the beech and ironwood a woodlot is healthier if there is thick growth of trees and shrubs around the border evergreens aro better than deciduous trees as they

fact that potatoes was a main topic discussed at these two meetings there were 55 at the goodwood meeting and 80 at tho sandford meeting ontario county growers are fortunate in having a representa tive on the new marketing board in the person of mr howard harper oi goodwood mr harper very care fully and clearly explained the workings of the new potato marketing scheme and also pointed out some of the many difficulties encountered in getting the new plan i of marketing working smoothly and i efficiently he solicited the co operation of ontario county potato growers in giving the new plan of marketing a fair trial as he was convinced that it would ultimately mean a great deal to ontario grow ers in recovering a market that had been gradually slipping away to maritime growers mr harper brought out a peck sample of maritime stock and a pecksamplo of ontario stock just to illustrate the superiority and attractiveness of the eastern pota toes compared with ontario pota toes as they have been put on the market no further argument was needed as to why the consumer usually preferred the special grade even though the price difference was quite large under the new plan of putting up superior grades of potatoes in clean new sacks a re newed demand for ontario grown potatoes was already being worked up mr craig chief inspector for the district was also at the goodwood meeting and took pains to explain the grades of potatoes and methods of inspection and grading miss brae spent the wekeend with miss evelyn reesor mr ernie davis spent a few days this last week with his brother

village at the present time there may be none at all in another month or so of course one bone of contention was the provision that the doctors had to pay the costs of medical prescrip tions with five cents out of every 25 cents received dr luke teskey con tended that the druggists were be ing given about 100 per cent of the cost of their service while the doctors would still be receiving only 50 per cent dr routley pointed out that they did not have to prescribe another subject of discussion was the fact that tho list of householi remedies supplied free of charge by the new regulations have been cut to 15 while the previous govern ment supplied 32 this was ex plained by the fact that it is per- missable to prescribe special diet etc for patients who require it dr routley explained that the scheme is not perfect but it saved the doctors from having to fight with their own municipalities for payment of medical relief services he stated that there can bo re visions made after the government and the doctors find how it is work ing out he said that each muni cipality would be allotted the amount of the number of patients receiving care by doctors multiplied by 25 cents this total will then be divided up among the doctors pro rata mrs cornelius dike 90 years old lived in scarboro and uxbridge townships measles are very prevalent in the community thus making school
