T. L. Kennedy, Minister of Agriculture. Under the plan, Ontario cheese factories, now totalling 774, will be reduced close to 150. This is to be accomplished by a process of am- algamations and elimination. Some 20 new storage plants are to be created in a movement tow- ard better grading necessary In building up the export business. Every encouragement is tq be of- fered farmers to ensure increased production. According to Col. Kennedy, the plan will be carried out quietly, but energetically. It carries the endorsa- tion of the entire Ontario Cabinet, and is announced after a full year of consideration by the department in conjunction with the Ontario Marketing Board. On Co-operative Basis The plan in brief as outlined by Col. Kennedy is to place the manu- vacture and sale of cheese and but- ter on a huze co-operative basis, re- duce the overhead by the elimina- tion of small cheese factories, in- * crease the volume of milk produc- tion, create central storage houses and build up a selling organization. "Such a scheme has never before "heen attempted in the history ot this province," said Col. Kennedy when interviewed at Parliament "Buildings yesterday. "In -England 'there is a market for Ontario chedle which in the matter of vol- ume we have never been able to satisfy. We propose to fill that market as well as the domestic market by a plan which in my opinion will revoldtionize the entire dairy industry." There are 774 cheese factories in Ontario, The greater proportion are small in size with a limited output. The Govenment's plan calls for an amalgamation of many plants until there are about 150 large cheese factories in operation. By amalga- mating their resources, it is hoped, the farmers will produce butter and theese at three cents per pound less than heretofore. The next move in the five-year plan is to stimulate production, a purely pro- vincial matter, in the opinion of pl. Kennedy. An increased pro- duction per cow 'means so much more profit for the farmer and if the plans works out successfully in ts essentials, the farmers will (Continued on page 3) LORD PLUMER DIES London, July 16. -- Field Marshall Lord Plumer, one of the greatest of British soldiers, com- mander- of the Fifth Corps at the opening of the great war, and lai er of the second army which ja- cluded the early Canadian divi- sions, died today, after a lengthy period of ill-health. .

Evidence for Accused When the court opened in the afternoon, A. C., Hall, counsel for Dr. Kaiser, called Detective-Ser geant Flintoff to the stand, who testified he had viewed the scene of the accident and was of lhe 'eonclusion that the impact of the McKinley car hitting the curb had broken the wheel, but the damage to the skirt must have resulted from the collision of tre cars, Dr. Kaiser on Stand Dr. Kaiser, who next took the stand asserted that he was re. turning home with V. B. Woo l- ruff as a passenger. They had come down Church Street at a speed not greater than ten miles an hour. On coming to tne in- tersection of Bond Street, he looked both left and right ard saw no car approaching.

They supported the attitude of Mr. De Valera that this was a legal question while the newspapermen were told the Free State considered it unfair that Southern Ireland should be required to pay this sumof $15,- 000,000 annually to Great Brit- ain, while Northern Ireland was not obligated to any such pay- ment, Manion To Meet Party Ottawa, July 16.--Hon, R.

They had hikes, went swimming in the pool; and brought the day to an end with games and a camp fire For a good number it was the first time they had been under canvas and it was a real experi- ence which will be carried in memory for many years to come. Everything was as it should be. with the work being divided up among the boys, which gave them a chance to show their interest in the camp. Usually It was a tirea bunch of boys who retired at night, but it was not a case of overwork as the open air and strenuous play took its accustom- ed toll, Camp Fire Night The real treat of the camp period was held on Thursday night, the Jast night in camp, when 'members of the Kiwanis Club and their friends went out taking with them a plentiful sup- ply of weaners and buns. A big fire was built and everyone ga'h- ered around for a wonderful ev- ening.

Bowling Club Will Have To Dissolve If Payment of Taxes Insisted Upon If the attitude of the Public Utilities Commission of asking the Oshawa Bowling Club to pay the taxes levied against the prop- erty leased by the club, or vacat- ing the premises is persisted in, then the bowling club will gim- ply have to dissolve, That was the reaction of the club members last night as they discussed the situation as revealed at Thurs- day night's meeting of the com- miseion. The members felt that, under present comditions, with the membership cut in half dur- ing the last two years, and the fees reduced, there was nothing that could be done about it, ex- cept to zo out of business, if the taxes had to .be paid by the club. In that evem{, one wnrominent bowler inform The Times this morning, the loch bowlers would have to join the Whitby or Bow- oo manville clubs and get their bowling in that way. For some years the bowling club, even on its lease of $1.00 per year,has just been able to keep its. head above water. In the last year or two, it has lost, in membership, on ac- count of conditions. The member- ship fee, previously $15.00 a year, was this year cut to $10,00 in an effort to retain membership, but even at that rate there are heavily fewer members than before, and' it is, according to The Times, in- formed, absolutely impossible for the club to continue if taxes of any amount have to be paid. The matter was the subject of much discussion around the club- house amd greens last night, and the above expresses the concensus of opinion of the bowlers who were on hande Dredge Arrives UNIQUE RECORD THOMAS L.

Yester- day afternoon he went down to the Shelter and gave a de- lightful entertainmeait for the children, and left them not only the rabbit, which he asked them to call "Joe" after himself, but also a gen-. erous supply of candies. The children were delighted with the entertainment.

Last night, the tug Sai- vage arrived from Toronto for thé] third time this week, owned by the R. Huffman Construction Company, of Toronto, which has the dredging contract, and which is now ready to start work On two previous trips, the tug brought a large amount of equipment which is essential to a project of 'this kind. The amount of money which has been set aside for the "dredging operations this year is $12,500, this being voted by parliament to extend the Oshawa harbor so as to provide greater facilities for docking and wharfage space. The new cement dock was built last vear, but it still lies some 200 feet from the edge of the water. This intervening land will have to be dredged out under the present contract so as to make it available for shipping. Unfortun- ately, little manual labor is involved in work of this kind, so that it will not be a substantial employment factor. It is understood that when the dredging is completed the new whartage will be used for the land ine and storage of fuel supplies which will leave the nresent coal areas free for the handling of other tvnes of freight. FARMERS FLOCK TO THE CAPITAL Are Presenting Their Views to Government on Trade Matters Today (By Canadian Press) Ottawa, July 16. -- By specizl train and motor car, farmers came to Ottawa today to present their views on trade and ecu- nomic matters to the govern- ment. Before making any representa- tions, however, a great mass meeting was held in the coliseum, at which views of the agricultur- ists were whipped into shape. Tue majority of the delegates came from Ontario, some from' Quebec and the west was. represented by a delegation. Prominent members of the On tario co-operative farm move- ment present included R. J. Scott, president of the U.F.0.; W. A. Amos, president of Coopera- tive; J. J. Morrison, secretary of the U.F.0.; W. C.

In view of the ract that the heavy rain last Sunday afternoon kept many pco- ple from making a tour of the gardens selected then, it has been decided to adopt almost the same list of five beauty spots, and citi- zens are invited to visit them to- morrow, The first on the list is the beauti- ful garden of Mr. and Mrs, F, W. Cowan, on Simcoe. Street South, where there are to be found won- derful roses, many fine trees and shrubs, perennial borders with a mass of bloom, and exceptionally fine terraces and lawns, The next garden on the list is that of John Roe, 42 Brock Street West, who was the first prize win- ner in last year's garden compcti- tion. From these, the pilgrimage will go to the garden of ex-mayor Ernie Marks, who has a beautiful showing of bloom ready for visi- tors. The last on the list takes the party out to Harmony, to the home of Mr, and Mrs, F. L. Mason, where the horticultural pilgrims will not only see a fine showing of flowers, but will also have the opportunity of admiring an exceptionally good vegetable garden. In addition to these Oshawa gardens being open for imspec- tion, an invitation has been ex- tended to Oshawa Horticulturists to visit some of the beauty spots of Bowmanville.

The meeting had been called for 7.30 p.m. but when that hour came only six of the fifteen members of the council were on hand. At eight o'clock, there had so, since there was no quordmm, it was impossible to transact any busi- ness. The faithful six went into the committee room, however, and waited some time longer, but no other aldermen appeared, so the meeting was definitely called off, after an interesting discussion on matters entirely foreign to city council work, and centring largely on the merits and demerits of the reckless driving charge against Dr. T. E. Kaiser. The six alderraen who were pres- ent were Ald. L. S. Hyman, chair man of the committee, Ald, Bunker, Ald. Stevens, Ald, Harman, Ald. Caunt and Ald. Ferguson. Those who failed to put in an appearance were Mayor Hawkes, Aldermen Boddy, Jackson, Cawker, Clark, Kirby, Morris, Babe, and Crandall, In view of the failure of the meeting to materialize, it was agreed by those who were present that the matter under consideration, the recommendations of the central advisory relief committee for the appointment of a central emergency relief organization, would be dis= cussed by council, in committee of the whole, at Monday night's coun= cil meeting, when, it was hoped, it would be possible to make a definite decision. The fecling of those who were present was that all the mem= bers of the council had made up their minds as to how they intended to vote, and therefore any drawn-out discussion would be a waste of time. This, however, may not prove to be the case on Monday night, as ther® are some members of council who wish to have the details ironed out betore making a defiite decision as to whether or not gelief in Oshawa will be handled by one central ore ganization, on which both the city council and the citizens' advisory relief committee would be repre sented. It might be said, ig fairness to the council members, that this has been a particularly heavy week for meetingd, as various committees have been meeting every night tnis week, and the absent aldermen doubtless found that they had other pressing matters which demanded their attention last night and pre- vented them attending the mceting of the council, Toronto Autoist Hurt.
