THURSTON, r. J. THURSTON, • - Editor A:,soa. Editor THE KLTIXE AM) THE POT The Owen Sound Sun-Times is tak- ing a "holier than thou" attitude on the finding: of the coroner's jury in the death of Mrs. Mary Reid, who died from injuries in a motor accident ne«r Rock Mills, the latter part ol July. They claim that the jury er- red in brinjrinK in a verdict placing no blame on the part of the driver. The lady admitted that she was going nearly 50 miles an hour at the time. The jury knew of the condition of the road at this point of the accident be- .sides from the fact that vision was not the best goinj; up the hill to set- over the other side. This lady had been driving since 1914 and never had an accident before, and could be considered a careful driver. .M this time she may not have been driving so carefully but could .'he be condemn- ed for a moment's lapse? The evid- ence showed that she had kept tho car on the road for considerable dist- ance before it hit the tree, and that she had u.sed the brakes unwisely This is not a crimirkal offence. The lady who died was her own mother and nn doubt she has suffered many hours of remorse for what had occurred and if she con.«idered that she was to blame for the accident her punishment was enough for any person. What good could be accomplished in bring- ing in a different verdict? But no doubt the editor of the Sun-Times would close his eyes to the humane element in the case. Apparently the same time they condone the speed of that is rampant throughout tho coun- try, but with one hand they condemn other people speeding while at the same time they condone th speed of the Sun-Times driver in bringing his papers to this post office for delivery every day in the week. Sometime."! he is forced to make the trip here. 32 miles, in 40 minutes, at the same time delivering papers at the variou.<! post offices on the route.

She was the daugh- ter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Donald McLcod and was born on the farm now owned by her brother, Donald -McLeod, of Ceylon. She was born on Nov. 14, 1855, and wa.s married on Feb. bth, 1875. A family of eleven children were bom to them of whom nine are now living, five sons and four daughters â€" Chi-istena (.Mrs. F. P.

One son, Colin, died in 1890 and one daughter, Janet Etta, died in 1901. She is also survived by her husband and 18 ! grandchildren. I She had not been in very good I health for some time, but was able to I be up and around until a few days pre' ! vious to her death. She had been i. life-long i-esident of this community and her interests, for the most part, were centred around her home, her many fine trait.s of character being manifested throughout the years, ."^ht was of a kind and (luiet disposition, which made her many warm friends. Last February she and her husband celebrated their diamond wedding anniversary. j The funeral was held on .Monday afternoon from her late residence and was largely attended by sympathetic friends and neighl)ors, who came to pay their last tribute o"C respect to one who held the highest esteem and re- spect of the community. Rev. J. W. lohiiston preached a comforting ser- mon to the bereaved ones and was assisted by Rev. N. McDonald, who lead the scripture lesson and offered church and community. She was ono who always took a keen interest in all food work and was ever ready to lend a helping hand at any time. An ad- dress wa.s read by Miss Anna Mc- Eachern and the presentation of a beautiful set of dishes was made by Mr. D. K. McKinnon. Both Mr. and Mrs. Ivawrence thanked all kindly in a few well-chosen words and invited all to visit them. All joined in singlnn "For They are Jolly Good Fellows," after which a bountiful lunch was served. Mrs. A. B. McAithur is spending a couple of weeks with her sister, Mrs. Frank, at Caledon. Mrs. Archie McKinnon of Montana is visiting friends here. Mr. and Mrs. Donald McArthur of Haileybury and Mr. and Mrs. Stewart Thompson of Mt. Albert visited on Sunday at Wilfred Wason's.

We have heard of it as far west a.s lot 20, con. 21, Rgremont, the -ome of Stanley Harrison, where it did! severe damage to vehicles, imple-l monts, fences and trees. The next building struck was the house lately burned down on John Ahkorn'.s farm, on which rebuilding had commenced, four men having worked a week. New joists had all been placed and the first floor laid, bond timber and strip-i ping being put in the old brick work. The huri-icane knocked down much of the wall, breaking some new joists and flooring and blew down the wind- mill and fruit trees, also maple trees that had (iO years of growth. It also levelled 20 acres of timber on Wm. Aldcorn's farm, all the trees around the house, also wrecking the wood shed, blowing off the chimney.^ and nicst of the windows. It kept on its cour-e and struck the Hardy home at Swinton corners causing terrible hav oc. The large barn was unroofed and almost demolished. Had it not been full of ci'op it would have gone cntiiel.v. The wood shed at tho house wa.: demolished, chimney off th..' house, nmny windows broken, shingles rip))cd (iffâ€" a sight that cannot be described by pen. Tons of gtraw and grain were carrie<l away and rails and tubs were picked up thiee miles away. Four geese were killed and one is missing. The storm kept on through the woods along the rear end of the farm for a mile and a (luarter, hitting .Archie Ferguson's house and barn, wrecking them completely and strew- ing his possessions in many directions. This aged couple, well over 70 years, were away at the funeral of a nephew, .Me.x Ferguson, in London and one can imagine their ^orrow on coming home to find it destroyed. Mr. Gordon Mc- Kinnon's barn, hen house and othei outbuilding were wrecked and fowl were carried through the air without using their wings. Next we hear of it at Wm. Scott's, on the Hopeville line, with the barn wrecked. . While every farm In the path of the hurricane, al)out ten miles long, suffered losses, the chief sufferers are Hardy brothers, Archie Fergu.son and Gordon McKinnon in this district. Many others had fences and timber blown down. Timber can be marketed in logs and wood, so it will not be u dead loss. Sunday a steady stream of cars passed along the roads viewing the ruins, and many also came on Monday. There was much sympathy ex- proBsed for those stricken. Could not each one of those sight.seers more effectively express their sorrow with a few dollars or days' work to assist in making repairs. This loss should, and will, we believe, be borne by a great many people. Perhaps it will- be the turn of someone else in the next storm. One very brotherly and Christian act, we noted, was Mr. Robt, Acheson of Proton Station and his two sons coming out early Monday morning to assist Archie Ferguson to coirtnence repairs, Monday after- noon James Hardy bgan to move hi.s crop from the wrecked barn to the barn on John Corbett's farm. A numl)er of the neighbors assisted.

Bring Results work should be undertaken with a view to preventing the ripening of the current year's seed as well as fighting a weakened root. Heat, sunlight and dry Weather will assist greatly in the control of weeds at this time. Experiments have proven and it has been the experience of many farmers throughout the prov- ince that the roots even of our most persistent weeds cannot stand heat and dryness when brought to the surface. For tho control of annual, winter annual and biennial weeds through cultivation of the stubble is recom- mended immediately after the crop has been removed, using the disc or cultivator. By following this method seeds are brought near the surface where they sprout and may be killed by further cultivation. When this plan is followed anl the soil is stirred up at regular intervals, millions of young plants will be killed and those which sprout late in the fall will be destroped by early iflrosts Many farmers skim plow immediately after the crop has been removed then har- row and cultivate at regular intei'- vals until freeze up. By plowing shallow weed seeds are kept near the surface where they sprout and are kille<l by cultivation. .An abundance of moisture together with the methods outlined above will assist greatly in controlling such weeds as Wild Mustard, Stinkweed, Ragweed, Worm Seed Mustard, False Flax, Foxtail, Lamb's Quarters, Pig- weed Shepherd's Purse, etc. TAKE OUT THE WEEDS Although modern seed cleaning machinery will do a great deal to take out weed seeds from grass and clover seed it will not make perfect separa- tion in all cases. In fields for seed weeds should be taken out in the summer so as to make possible high grades and best prices. Such weeds as mustaad, daises, bladder campion, white cockle, and others classed as noxious should be removed during the summer so as to keep them out oi seed crops and, what is just as im- portant, keep them from seeding themselves down again.
