"But I doubt," remarked Mr. .1. D. Clarke, one of our visitors, "if the spectators got as much fun and excitement as we had in a contest waged all afternoon and evening on the exhibition grounds, some 40 years ago." He told us that the teams were made up of stalwarts from Sin?- hami)ton and Flesherton. The visit- ing team arrived with a band and their players, determined to bu rid of all impe<iiments to victory, came on the field arrayed in lights. Neither of the teams used gloves, wire masks or chest protectors. Indeed, the fielding visitors had a decided aver- ."Uon to even handling the ball. Hardly a catch was made by them. They preferre<i to watch the direc- tion in which the sphere was hit and then sprint after it with the utmost agility. As, however, there was little ffrass on the fiield, and the weather had been dry, many long distance chase.s were indulged in and there were home runs galore. It was be- lieved the game would last from ',i p.m. to 6 and a sumptuous joint re- past had been arranged at Munshaw's for the last hour, but the war went on until darkness came, and "eats" -.vere out of the question until the phenomenal scores were toted up, nftcr some ."even innings had been nlayed. Mr. Clark's recollection is that the Flesherton boys batted out 74 runs, or stole bases while the tight- ligged visitors chased the ball. The visitors had to be contented with .•:ome .3.5 runs. All agreed that each > idc had had real runs for their money and as for the spectators they had more side-splitting hilarity than had been enjoyed in the old town for many a day.

Sow Thistle is found in every County and District in On- tario, in fact, in almost every Town- ship. This weed known as the Yel- low Peril is a real menace to the Agricultural industry in Ontario. For years farmers generally ditl not know the weed Sow Thistle, did not know its life history and habit of growth, and therefore, did not realize its im- portance until it had become well established. Sow Thistle is perennial in nature. It spreads rapidly by roots and the seeds are carried long distances by the wind. The stems are from 1 to 5 feet in height, with few leaves and filled with a bitter, milky juice The flowers are bright yellow about IVl- inches across and are fouftd clos- ed in bright sunlight. Hay fields known to be infested with Sow Thistle should be cut on the greenside and plowed immediate- ly after the hay has been removed. If the weather is hot and dry, allow the plowed land to dry out for two weeks then cultivate thoroughly as a Summer fallow and sow Fall Wheat or plow again in the fall and sow barley or mixed grain the following soring. Such crops as sweet clover and late sown buckwheat are excellent foi controlling this weed. A bare sum- mer fallow is also excellent for con- trolling all kinds of weeds. Early summer plowing and the baking or drying process in the hot dry weath- er after plowing destroys many of the roots and where this system is consistently followed in the rotation, sow thistle can be kept under con- trol. Many fartners have found early oats to be preferable to late oats for controlling .Sow Thistle. Due to the spreading habits of Sow Thistle, this weed is classified as noxious under the Ontario Weed C^ontrol Act which states that ali noxious weeds under the Act must be cut down and destroyed. Weed Inspectors are vigorously enforcing the Weed Act as far as sow thistle is concerned and are doing every- thing possible to protect the clean farms against the inroads of the world's worst weed. NOTICE TO CREDITORS Mr. J. D. Clarke of Weston is on a yearly visit to Flesherton. Mr. Clark has just returned from a trip through New England, where he had the opportunity, as an old new.spaper- man, to note the trend of events, social and political, more particularly in the progressive city of Boston and lation in dc Tending or opposing any change:* in the laws of the United States. Judging the situation by the platforms of the two great parties over the border Mr. Clarke said that there seemed to be very little differ- ence between them in so far as thsir proposals to deal with the manufact- ure and trade in intoxicating liquors. Both parties favor the withdrawal of the 18th Amendment to the constitu- tion. This was the program of the Democrats in 11)28, but Hoover got many vote.i because he strongly fav- ored the "dry" law and in some States Smith profited by taking the repeal side. Now, Hoover has changed his view, and has become pretty much as "wet" as Roosevelt consents to be lated. What effect these manoeuvers of the candidates will have on their fortunes remains to be seen. But there seems no reason to doubt thai no matter which candidate triumphs, the United States is in for a new ex- the charming centres of Greater Bos ton, which provide homes for many | periment in liquor legislation, and the IN THE MATTER of the Estate of MARIA K.

Interviewed by The .Advance as tc the business outlook over the border Mr. Clarke said he found that the trade depression has been very great in every line of business, and lack of smployment has greatly curtailed the spending power of the people. Bi't there is now a more hopeful spirit prevailing, though it is not manifested to any extent in the retail stores. As in Canada, so over the border, all are hoping, but few express confid- ence, that times will be much better until the harvest is gathered and prices for primary products are such as to provide a fair return for the grower. "I was interested," Mr. Clarke said, "to learn from first hand the views of shrewd New Englandors, with regard to the causes of the de- pression. I was told there was a growing revolt in New England â€" even in the big centres of population â€" ag- ainst the view that high tariffs were invariably protectors of industry. And, indeed, Massachusetts has been hardest hit by the removal of many of her cotton and woollen mills to the South, where the mill owners have obtained labor (white as well as col- ored) for considerably less than what New Englanders regard as living wages. This, in turn, has re-acted on mill owners who remain in New Eng- land, but find it hard sledding to meet the lower prices of products of South- ern mills. Some of the Northern men may, by-and-by, be looking for a tariff in the north to keep out pro- ducts of cheap Southern labor! New F^nglaridcr.^ take a like view with regard to trade improvement omens as the great British statesman, Gladstone. When Chancellor of the Exchequer, he was wont to declare to thc'IBritish Parliament that the sign on which he relied as an indica- tion that the tide had turned was the market for chemicals. Whenever the chemical works got busy, he knew that better times were at hand, for there are few industrialists who art • not customers of the makers of these compounds. It is significant, there- fore, to find the chemical producers decidedly optimistic with regard to the products of their business." As the Presidential election does not take place until the first Tuesday in November there is not, as yet, much stir in the constituencies. But this year, Mr. Clarke stated, the con- test for the Chief Magistrate's chair promises to be exceedingly brisk. For example, being regarded, generally, as a Republican State, Massachusetts is now held by many as likely to prove pivotal in the present contest. The State went Democratic four years ago when Al. Smith got the popular vote, and in the last fight for Governor, Mr. Ely, the Democrat, had a major- ity of 15,000. Now, the Republicans nre declaring that Roosevelt will not get the Smith vote, and that both he and Governor Ely (up for re-election) will go under. It will be a bonnie fight, in any case, aa the Democrats leclare they are stronger and their opponents weaker, than when the last great struggle was fought. The tariff question will undoubtedly L'ul a figure in the contest, Mr. Clarke further .'^aid, but extreme protection- ism no longer charms the masses and Hoover's promises in the last election and in the intervening years, are being worked to the hilt against him. There is a big differenoe in his position when ho was really, untried as a national leader. Ex-President Coolidgc has promised the Republican bo.s.^es to lend a hand to keep the old flag lying, but charm he ever so loudly, the New Hampshire man \s without the strength of a virile ex- President, and there are many new elector.^, who know not .Joseph, who haTC suffered through tlie lack of employment, and who laugh at renew- ed promises â€" proved so impotent in the last four years â€" that the high tax advocates alone fill the dinner pails.

As in Canada, there has always been a good deal of politics in the opposition to laws for the restricting of the intoxicating liquor traffic, and wherever it has been possible to find communities lax in the administration of the law, there have been hostile critics ready and willing to magnify the difficulties incident to law enforce- ment. Declarations have been re-it- erated that the law is difficult to en- force and flagrantly violated. There- fore, they say, it should be repealed. In many parts, these carping criti- cisms have been so persistently main- tained that Mr. Clarke believes that their makers have come to believe them, however ill-founded, to be al- ways true. Mr. Clarke said that it was his experience that the present prohibitory law has been much less productive of drunkenness and law- lesness than was the license law that preceded it. Mr. Clarke was in Bos- ton in 1910. At that time intoxicat- ing liquors were freely sold in dozens of street corner saloons. Drunken men and women were common spec- tacles in the crowded streets and lawlessness was evident on many hands. In the last six years he has visited the city every summer and found the streets, with greatly augmented crowds of residents and visitors; has obser\'ed an entire ab- sence of drunken men or women and no open evidence of traffic in intoxi- cants or of disorder among as fine looking a populace as he had ever seen in either the new or old world. He believes that Boston is no excep- tion to the rule in the centres of Unit- ed States population, and that what- ever may be the causes of lawlessness in some portions of the Republic they cannot fairly be attributed to the law curtailinc;' the liquor traffic. Ont must admit, he added, that there 'is opposition by many people to the en- deavor by law to keep down the evils incident to the sale and consumption of intoxicants, hence, probably, the lax enforcement of the law. But it cs evident also that a great deal of the clamor for the re-establishment of the traffic, as a legitimate business, is raised by the interests that hope to profit by the change to old-time con- ditions, with all their demoralizing influences. Meanwhle, the "wet"' band wagon is undoubtedly forging to the front. Experience and science unite to give the apple a high place as a food, even though they cannot support its claim as a preventative of 11 health to the extent of endorsing "an apple a day keeps the doctor away. It may surprise many people to learn that a very large percentage of what they consider solid food is water. Most fruits and vegetables are over ninety percent water, pota- toes, when boiled, are three-quarters water, and meats run well over fifty per cent, it is not surprising to learn that a ripe apple contains more than 80 per cent water. The apple, along with other fruits, has many virtues. It has a defin- ite nutritive value. The young ap- ple contains a large amount of starch which, as the apple ripens, is convert- ed into sugars, so that by the time the apple is fully ripened there is little or no starch. The sugars formed are readily digested, and they give the fruit its nutritive value. The unripe fruit may be irritating, but the ripe fruit acts as a mild lax- ative. The whole apple should be eaten as the skin is of value in as- sisting elimination, and it is said that the best flavor of the apple is to be found right under the skin. The apple, like most fruits, is alk- aline or base-forming. The blood is alkaline, and this alkalinity must be maintained in order that the blood may perform its function of carrying wash carbon dioxide to the lungs, where it picks up oxygen in exchange. If alkalinity is reduced below a cer- tain point, we haVe the condition known as "acidosis." The actual eating of a ripe apple is not only a pleasure, but good for the teeth. Biting into and chewing the firm flesh of the apple brings the teeth into use, cleanses the teeth and stimulates the gums. Too many of our foods do not give the teeth any- thing to do, and disuse means decay. Fruits are an abundant source of vitamins and minerals. They are classed as protective foods, because they supply those essential substances which are apt not to be provided in the diet. They have this great ad- vantage: they can be eaten in their natural state and their vitamins are thus undamaged by heat. Then, too, there is no loss in potency after sev- eral months' storage. The apple is a good food. It is nutritive, an abundant source of vit- amins, acts as a mild laxative and is of value in maintaining the alkalinity of the blood. To these qualities is added anattractive flavor. No won- der the apple is popular. Usually a farmer reaps what he sows, but not so with Irwin Griffin of Arbuckle, California. He plant- ed several acres of garden peas and turned over the care of the crop to a farm hand. The other day Grif- fin harvested his crop which brought him 102 bags â€" of barley. All we said waters may be diverted from their natural course and further notice is hereby given that the right of the said owner or owners to^ use the same as appurtenant to the sadd lands, was. thereby expropriated. AND TAKE NOTICE that a plan can say is that Farmer Griffin does- and description of the saiki lands n't know his onions.

Under favorable weather conditions it is possible to kill couch grass roots com- pletely by two or three days' exposure but with the presence of moisture they will retain their vitality for some time. It is difficult to kill couch grass roots under humid conditions, and plowing undt^- couch grass sod is of comparatively little use in destroy- ing it, even when plowed as deep as 15 inches. The spread of the plant is through the root system artO the only effective way of eliminating it is to work the roots up where the sun can get at them and burn or dry the vitality out of them.
