THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE Wednesday, March 10, 1937 PROTON STATION «*â- â€¢ Even the traditional blusters of the month of March have been mild so far, and what do you think we saw yesterday? Not a March lion, but a real blood-thirsty mosquito, however the insect may catch cold yet, Mr. Thomas Wyville visited last week with friends in the city. Mrs. McNalty is visiting with her •daughter at Swinton Park. We are pleased to welcome home Mr. Alexander Stewart, who has been for several months at the home of hia daughter in the Bethel neighborhood. Mr. and Mrs. W. G. Prosser of Lakeview spent the week end at Mr. E. G. Acheson's. Mr. Wm. Halliday of Saugeen Junc- tion has rented the farm east of this village, formerly owned by the late Edward Rutherford. The Semi-Pro. hockey game at Flesherton on Monday night, between the Flesherton and Proton Station teams brought the McDougall trophy within sight of the Proton team when they won in a 5 â€" 3 score. The Pl'o- ton Bears are ably assisted this year by Dundalk players, and much credit is due to them for the success of the games.

CARE IN FERTIUZERS CENTRE LINE The crows arrived back to these parts with the first of March. March did not come in like a lion, but has given us a little colder weath- er and some snow for sleighing which is very welcome as there is lots of work to do that can be done much easier with the sleighs. Rev. Mr. Bushell is giving us a ser. ies of wonderful talks on Christ's dilemmas or times when Christ had to make a choice. These talks are well worth hearing. He hag given four now, there are two more Sundays yet. Rev. Mr. Mills and Mrs. Jack Hock- ley of Markdale visited with the lat- ter's sister, Mrs. Wm. Little and fam- ily one day recently. Miss Evelyn Little has returned home after spending a couple of weekg at the home of Mr. Fred Irwin, Flesh- erton. Our sick ones are not doing as well as we would like to .see.

Mr. Joseph Little of Maxwell spent Sunday with his parents. Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Little. Visitors at the home of Robt.

FEVERSHAM Every farmer hopes to obtain the best possible results from the fertil- izer which he will buy this spring. The results depend of course on good drainage of the land, the quantity of humus in the soil that will hold mois- ture, the suitability of the fertilizer for the crop on which it is to be used and the placement of the fertilizer when it is applied. Experiments disclose that the prop- er placement of fertilizer ig about as important as the plant food content of the fertilizer itself and that when broadcast much waste of plant food is bound to occur. Realization of this fact is becoming more general every day and farmers are advised to study the fertilizer placement question with a view to obtaining better results. Information regardin<r this may be obtained from Dominion Experiment- al Farms and the Agricultural Coll- eges. It's like old times to hear again "I love coffee. T lovp tea." now known as the Organ Grinder's Swing.

Many old friends and neighbors were present to pay the last tribute of re- spect to one who was held in the highest esteem by all who knew her. Service was conducted at the house, by Rev. H. E. Wright, pastor of Priceville United Church, who after reading the 23rd Psalm and a part of 1 Cor. 15, spoke from the text, "Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his."

THE LATE THOMAS NICHOL KIMBERLEY We are grieved to report the death of the infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Carruthera, which took place at their home on Wednesday morning at 2 o'clock.

Everything that skill and kindness could do was done for him. Rev. McAuslan conducted a ser- vice at the home, also a service was held at Goring Church, the home church of Mrs. Carruthers. Inter- ment took place at the Goring Cem- etei-y. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved parents and brother, Keith. "" ************ **** * **** *********** * *****' t *** * **' t* i Live Stock Report Monday's cattle market was active and prices steady to a shade higher on all classes of good killing cattle. Choice heavy steers brought from $7.00 to $7..50, with a few tops at slightly higher prices, while those of medium to good quality ranged from $6.00 to $7.00. In the butcher section, there was a good demand for choice handy weight steers and heif- ers at from $15.75 to $6.25; fair to good from $5.25 to $5.75: common $•1.50 to $5.00. Choice baby beeves sold at from $7.00 to $8.00. while those of medium quality brought from $5.50 to $6.50. The cow trade was strong, choice fat cowa selling from $4.25 to $4.50. with a few for kosher purposes Up to $5.00; medium to good cows $8.50 to $4.00; common to medium $2.50 to $3.00; canners and cutters $1.75 to $2.25. Milch cows and spring- ers were very slow of sale, excepting for a few of the best, which brought from $45.00 to $60.00. Bulls held steady, choice butcher bulla from $4.- 25 to $4.75; heavy bulls and bolognas $3,150 to $3.7B. Monday's supply of 1500 lambs met with a good trade, those of choice quality selling at $10.00, with others at slightly lower prices accordingly. All classes of sheep held steady, choice from $5.00 to $5.50. The calf mark- et was stronger, choice calves selling at from $9.00 to $9.50, with a few tops at $10.00; fair to good from $7.- 50 to $8.50; common and medium $5.- 00 to $6.50. Although supplies of hogs were not very heavy, the market was slow and prices lower, due to the fact that .'iales of Canadian bacon in the Old Country are being on a lower level also packers coolers are carying heavy supplies, for which there does not seem to bo the nece.'<sary outlet. Mon j day's hogs sold on the basis of from $8.00 to $8.10 for truck deliveries and the prospects for the balance of the week do not look vei-y promising, so far as any recovery in price is con- i cerned. This community was shocked and saddened when it became known that Mr. Thos. Nichol had passed away so suddenly, due to heart trouble. In the late Mr. TThomas Nichol, this district loses one of its most ac- tive workers, one, who with the sue. cess of this county, always uppermost in his mind, gave unstintingly of his time and energy, that it might pros- per. He was one of the best known men in this township. For many years he was a member of the town- ship council, served as reeve, and some time later was the foreman in charge of construction when the county roads were built a few years ago, having had charge of the road building from Hanover to Sing- hampton, and other roads for the county and township. He also was an agent in the Grey and Bruce Fire Insurance Co. He was a member of the masonic order and a member of the Cemetery Board. He was ,1 member of St. Andrew's Presby- terian Church, and was always at church on Sunday, and the day be- fore he died he attended church ser- vice, morning and evening. He was an elder in the church and represen- tative elder for Prceviile congrega- tion to Presbytery; he was a director in Agricultural Society and last year was president. For years he served! on the managing board and in the choir, and was trustee of the church; Ife was al.so a Sunday School Super- intendent for a number of years. He will be greatly missed in the church and neighborhood where he was ever ready to lend a helping hand. He was of a cheerful and pleasant disposition and had a smile and hand- shake for every one he'd meet. The funeral was held on Wednes- day afternoon under masonic aus- pices, after a short service at the house, a public .service was held in St. Andrew's Prpsbyterian Church, and wa.s one of the largest seen in Priceville. People came from far and near to pay their last tribute of respect to one who had spent his en- tire life in their midst, and was held in the highest esteem by all who knew him. The church was filled to over- 1 flowing and many were unable to gain admittance. The «rv!ce was conducted by Rev. T. 0. Miller of Markdale and Rev. Mr. Stewart of .St. Davids; a former pastor here, preaching a comforting message and referrinfj to the many fine qualities of the deceased, of his keen interest in the affairs of the church and com- munity and the pleasant two years he had during his pastorate working with Mr. Nichol, to him the loss was a personal one and he offered sym- pathy to the immediate family and relatives in their sudden bereave- ment. The hymns used were "God is our Refuge and our Guide" and "Unto the hills around do I lift up my longing eyes." The pall-bearers were personal friends of the deceased and family: .Messrs Peter M"uir, Colin McLean, Hector McLean, Angus Hooper, John Stothart, Wesley Amott. Interment was made in McNeill's Cemetery. At the close of the ser- vice at the graveside, the members of Flesherton Masonic Lodge conducted the last rites of the order, assisted by members from Markdale, Dundalk, Durham and other places. Friends from a distance who at- tended the funeral were: Rev. Walter Nichol, Plymouth, Mich.; Misses Ena Rebecca and Gretta Nichol of Lon- don. Mr. and Mrs. W. Lcgette and (laughter of Buffalo; Mr. and Mrs. Winters. Rev. and Mrs. Bennett; Dr. .McNichol and Miss Monica Lambert of Toronto; Mr. and Mrs. Jackson; Mr. and Mrs. McAllister and other friends from Collingwood; Rev. and Mis. R. G. Stewart of St. Davids, also friends from Stayner, Owes Sound. Maxwell, Mclntyre, Badjeros, Mr. and Mrs. Neil Norman, Dundalk, Swinton Park, Durham and Markdale, The casket was banked with many beautiful floral offerings, which bore silent messages of love, among them being remembrances from the neigh- bors and many friends, St. Aiidi'ew's Presbyterian Church, Cemetery Board, Prince Arthur Lodge No. 333 and the Grey and Bruce Fire Insurance Co. Deepest sympathy is expressed for the sorrowing wife and family, sis- ters and brothers, friends and rela- tives, in their time of sorrow. The W, M.

Pinder Flesherton Bakery NO RESPECT FOR "LIMIT" Ontario's speed limit of 35 miles an hour On the open road is more hon- ored in the breach than in the observ- ance, but the Ontario Motor League feels that the law is the law, and the speed limit must be so regarded. There is, however, a definite sentiment in favor of a change to a law which would be respected by the average run of drivers, and action in the Legislature to make such a change is fairly certain to be taken. The general manager of the Ontario Safe- ty League, H. G. Fester, is on record as believing that "a maximum speed limit of 50 miles an hour surrounded with suitable restrictions would meet every useful requirement, and if vig- orously enforced, would have the sup- port of i)o':'o of the motoring public" Meanwhile, here are the open-country speeds in the other provinces of the Dominion: Prince Edward Island, "Careful and prudent"; Nova Scotia, â- 'reasonable and proper (40); New Brunswick. 40; Quebec. 30; Manitoba, "Careful and prudent"; Saskatchew- an, when passing, 35; Alberta 30; British Columbia, 30, or at rates pres- cribed by highway signs. , To the man who has to work hard from morning until night, the week end is a great institution. ♦•»»l 9****** * ******4 *** * * ** * * * ** * I I 1 1 1 1 > < < « I 1 1 1 1 1 I >» The Woman's Association of the United Church.
