The council thought he should lay A complaint against the owner of the dog or dogs ‘that disturbed him thusly. His reply +o this was that there were so many dogs running around town that it was impossible to know who owned them or whether they had owners at all. Chisf of Police Stromberg when asked for his opinion told the Cobalt council that he thought that the only way that anything could be done was to pass a byâ€"law requiring that all dogs be tied up. It would then be possible to know who owned the dogs creating the disturbance. The Advance has never been in favour of strict confineâ€" ment for dogs. It is a form of cruelty for dogs are animals that need a cerâ€" tain amount of freedom to be happy and healthy. However, it does appear that dog owners sometimes seem to. completely disregard the rights and comfort of others. The number of dogs alliowed to pester the public here in Timmins during the past winter was a disgrace to the dog owners and a nuisance to the public. The owners of dogs did not appear to appreciate th> freedom given their dogs. When they found the dogs were leniently treated, they appeared to simply turn thom loose by the scores to be a curse and4 a nuisance to the general public. A man that cannot control a dog so that it is not a menace or an annoyâ€" ance to the public should not keep dog. Even a dog owner has no license to create a public nuisance. A dog that cannot be kept under some sort cf control should be quietly despatched to the happy hunting grounds for dogs.

FRASER AT TORONTO LAST FRIDAY One of the Best Known of Ontario Teachers. Visited Timmins on Several Occasions and Had Many Friends Here. Hosts of friends in the North Land will regret to learn of the death at Toronto last week of Mr. Charles G. Fraser, for many years principal of the Manning avenue school in Toronto, and also for many years secretary of the Ontario Teachers‘ Federation. The late Mr. Fraser visited Timmins on all the occasions when the teachers from Old Ontario toured the North. On those visits here he made remarkâ€" ably large number of friends in addiâ€" tion to the several former pupils of his resident in the district,. He was a man of very genial and humorous disposiâ€" tion with a large fund of apt strories and gentle wit and on the tours of the North the teachers very rightly conâ€" sidered him as the life of the party. He kept the party in continued good humour and his talent and geniality were so outstanding that the "old genâ€" tleman with the grey beard" was noted by all. There was a general disopsition to seek his acquaintance and he was alâ€" ways ready to be friendly with all. Literally scores here sought his acâ€" quaraintance when the teachers were here on their tours and he was easily he most popular of the visiting teachâ€" ers. The humour and wit Ch:a.s.‘| G. Fraser helped to popularize the teachers‘ tours in this North. The| parties of teachers who came here each summer for a number of years felt that without Mr. Fraser the tours! would not be half as pleasant or nearly so much worth while. The late Chas. G. Fraser was seized with a sudden heart attack last week just as he was returning home. He was almost at the door of his residence when he collapsed. He succumbed beâ€" fore medical aid could reach him. Friends and neighbours who noticed him stumble hurried to his assistance. He was picked up and carried into his home and a doctor hastily summoned. On the arrival of the doctor it was fcund that the genial Chas. G. Fraser had passed from this life that he had taken so genially and had done so much to make pleasant and happy for others. The late Chas. G. Fraser was one of the best known school teachers in Onâ€" tario, having been actively engaged in the profession for cnly a few months short of fifty years. For thirtyâ€"four years he was on the staff of the Toâ€" ronto public schools. For a long term of years he was principal of Manning avenue school, that school some years ago being named "Fraser School" in honour of its principal and his excelâ€" ient service to the schools of Toronto. When Wr. Fraser went to Manning avenue school there _ were only 500 pupils there, but last year when he retired the number had grown to over 1500. The late Chas. G. Fraser was born in St. Andrew‘s, Quebec, 67 years ago. He received his early education at Shakeâ€" speare and Millbank, Ont., later going to Stratford, where at the age of 16 years he took charge of his first counâ€" try school. He taught at New Hamâ€" burg, Kitchener and Stratford, before going to Toronto. He was a member for many years of the Methodist church and a worker in the Sunday Sschool. He was a very ardent advoâ€" cate of sports as a means of developâ€" ing the character as well as the bodies of pupils. Always loyal to British inâ€" stitutions, he was persistent and able in his efforts to inculceate the principles of good citizenship in the pupils that came under his care. The value of such 2 man as Chas. G. Fraser to the country can not be easily overestiâ€" mated. The late Mr. FPraser is surâ€" vived by a widow, five sons and two daughters, as well as by three sisters, to all of whom there will go out deep sympathy in the loss that all who knew the late Chas. G. Fraser will realize as a great one. THIRTEENTH CONVENTION KIWANIS INTERNATIONAL BDooklets and other material in reâ€" gard to the thirteenth annual convenâ€" tion of the Kiwanis International navs been received by the local Kiwanis club. The convention this year is to be held at Milwaulee, Wisconsin, from Juns 23rd to June 27th. One illustratâ€" ed booklet gives a very attractive deâ€" scription of the convention town and its history. Milwaukee was originally an Indian village famed for its climate and beautiful scenery. It stcod on the west shore of Lake Michigan near the mouth of three rivers. It was known as "Mahnâ€"auauâ€"kie"‘ or "Good Lands." wWith the advent of the white man th2 village became a thriving trading post. From this trading post with its quaint Indian name developed the present metropolis of Milwaukee will its population of nearly 700,000. Reâ€" ference is made in the booklet to Milâ€" vwaukce‘s industriss, its fine buildings and its many charms. The convenâ€" tion will be held in the noted Milwauâ€" kee auditorium which not only has every facility for conventions but also has a regular staff of employees whose trained snd experienced services are at the disposal of every organization usinz the building. The programme for the convention includes a Sunday avening religious musicale, addresses from outstanding speakers from Canâ€" ada and the United States, business secsions, district dinners, receptions, feature entertainments, golf, Allâ€"Kiâ€" wanis Night, etc. All Kiwanis are inâ€" vited, and it would appeer that any lattending will have a very happy and profitable time. NORTH WAS ADAPTED 10 THE PRODUGTION OF HAY Owing to High Lime Content of Soil, Etc., Hay Good Crop. The Best Hay Mixtures for the North Mr. S. Ballantine, superintendent of the Dominion Experimental Station at Kapuskasing, writes The Advance this week as follows:â€" Owing to the high lime content or the soil and the comparatively large amount of rainfall which occurs durâ€" ing the growing season, Northern Onâ€" tario is particularly weil adapted to the production of hay crops. At the Dominion Experimental ‘Staâ€" tion, Kapuskasing, Ontario, an experiâ€" ment has been conducted for a number of years in order to compare the reâ€" sults from timothy, orchard grass, and meadow fescue grown alone and in mixtures, and when these grases are sown alone and in combination with red clover, alsike clover, and red and alsike clover. It was found that reasonably good. yields of hay may be obtained from the various mixtures under test. On the average, however, timothy is apâ€" parently quite superior to either meaâ€" dow fescue or orchard grass, particuâ€" larly the latter, both when grown alone and in the various mixtures. The mixtures containing red and alsike clover have given the largest yield, followed by those containing both red clover alone, and alsizke alone. The mixtures where no clover is used have given the lowest yields. Timothy 10 pounds and red clover 8 pounds has given a yield of 2.01 tons of cured hay per acre; timothy 8 and alsike 6 pounds 1.99 tons; timothy 6, red clover 8, alsike 2 and orchard grass 10 pounds 1.91; and the standard mixâ€" ture of timothy 8, red clover 8 and alsike 2 pounds 1.86. From these results it would appear as though in the formulating of hay mixâ€" tures, some consideration should D: given to the purpose of the crop and also the nature of the soil on which it is to be grown. For example, if the soil is of such a nature that alsike weuld be better adapted than red cloâ€" ver, it can be used without materially reducing the yield. Under average conditicns, however, a mixture conâ€" taining both should take care of soil variation and be the most satisfactory generally. On Friday evening this week (toâ€" morrow night) an invitation dance will be given under the auspices of the Golden Beaver Lodge, A. F. A. M., in the Masonic hall, Timmins. Tommy Stephens and his orchestra will furâ€" nish the music for the occasion. lt P lt PP 44 4 *A *A Bâ€"4 ND new Smocks in bright cretonnes and plain colours. 48# e e e O oo n Oe PE CE BE OOR t e P L AP C P AP P l BP m l BP L l l ult eP eP e ®. t ol l stt ult ut l > lt oi ol o o t i ‘ ~MW En S s T Wsxmmaxmmxmxxm:sssxswusuxmams T * * L * L C o 4 4 5 . 3 OY‘S Wash Suits, ages 2 to 6,, short and long trousers.
