According to the evidence in the case tried by Magistrate Atkinson, Nelson had instigated a near riot at Kirkland Lake‘s new ball park on May 18th, when several truck loads of workers had been conveyed to the grounds. A number of the transients under the leadership of the alien agitators had refused to do a day‘s work for a week‘s free board, though some of them hat been fed for months before. NOt conâ€" tent with refusing to work themselves they attempted to interfere with men who had decency enough to go to work Kirkland Lake, on behalf of Nelson, it is understood that the case at Haileyâ€" bury will be fought by Lawyer McDonâ€" ald, of Toronto, who uppeared in Timâ€" mins some years ago for men connectâ€" ed with similar cases here. Also it is reported that Nelson has a brother in Winnipeg who is a lawyer and that he will also give assistnce in the defence. Nelson in the meantime is out on bail of $700.00 awaiting the trial of the apâ€" peal case. Before he was convicted on Lloyd Nelson, who has been working with the alien agitators at KCirkland Lake for some time has appealed his conviction by Magistrate Atkinson on a charge of intimidation,. The appeal will come before Judge Hayward at Same distinctive, modern lines and same long 112â€"inch wheelbase as the Ford Vâ€"8. 50â€"horsepower engine is completely cushioned in rubber.

After that he apparently followed the maâ€" gistrate‘s suggestion in regard to securâ€" ing a lawyer, and it was not long until he was out on bail, with an appeal enâ€" tered against the conviction registered by the magistrate. effect that they heard Nelson harangnâ€" ing the crowd and counselling the pullâ€" ing of single men from the trucks. Nelson admitted talking to the crowd, but denied urging vioience. The same sort of evidence was given by three of his aides, but the evidence of the police you assume leadership of a crowd like tha:t that you are incurring heavy reâ€" sponsibility," the magistrate told Nelâ€" son. Magistrate Atkinson found Nelâ€" son guilty of the charge against him and sentenced him to pay a fine of $100 and costs, or three months in jail with hard labour. As soon as sentence was pronounced, Nelson expressed his disâ€" satisfaction. He asked the court if he could speak for an appeal. The maâ€" gistrate told him that was his privilege, but advised him to secure counsel as the entering Oof an appeal entailed attitude and tactics might have caused very serious trouble. "You know when The seed may be sown almost any time except during our driest periods, preferably early in spring or, failing that, midâ€"August to September. Someâ€" times good results are obtained in sowâ€" ing just before freezeâ€"up and instances are known where excellent results have been secured by broadcasting the seed on top of the first fall of snow and letâ€" ting it get washed into the soil during the winter and early spring. The seed is simply sowed broadcast and raked in with a fine rake. After thfs a good rolling is very desirable, followed by a good watering i#f possible. Bow the seed at the rate of four to six bushels per acre of Kentucky Blue, to which may be added one to two pounds of White Dutch Clover, and sometimes one bushel of Timothy is added to give results for the first year. Eventually the Kentucky Blue is the only occupant of the land. For those who have small:lawns I may say that an area 50 x 100 feet, or 5000 square feet, requires about one peck of Kentucky Blue and about one handful of White Dutch Clover. _ _ No doubt many of you who are golfâ€" ers have noticed the beautiful turfs on The Making and Care of Lawns â€"and Kinds of Grasses to Use has no excuse for any failure.> The clays are not so easily handled; they areâ€"liable to bake or â€"pack too tightly and, without some improvement, are not ideal soils for a lawn. They can be improved, however, by various means. One way of doing this, where the land is wet, is to underdrain. Anâ€" other is to apply a liberal quantity of sand or peat, say, two inches, and have this spaded in and thoroughly incorporâ€" ated with the top five inches of soil. I» there is a great deal of grading up to be done the best practice wouid be to use only a good loam for the top four or five inches. The sand, especially if they are very light, will require some improvement also. ~The safest is a topâ€" dressing of good soil as in the case of the clay but, failing this, the incorâ€" poration of peat or plenty of wellâ€"rotâ€" ted msnure will add greatly to the soil conditions. (By M. B. Devis) Lawns are frequently spoken of as our outdoor carpets and I don‘t suppose there is a single person who has not often admired a wellâ€"kept lawn. Probably no other single factor has any greater influence on the appearâ€" ance of a property than the condition of the lawn, so that I feel quite justiâ€" fied in taking up your time for a brief discussion on its making and care. Urilike any horticultural projects we are not very often able to choose the site of a lawn. Generally that is decided by other factors, such ‘as the street, the paths and the house. This, of course, makes the choice of soil a matter alâ€" most impossible. We nearly always have to take just what we find and atâ€" tempt to improve it as best as we can. Kinds of Soil Roughly we may divide our soils into three classesâ€"heavy clay, solls, loamy soils and sandy soils The loamy soil need not give us much worry, its physiâ€" cal texture is ideal and its plant food requirements are easily met. The man who has a nice loamy soil on which to create a lawn is indeed fortunate and If a good loam is used, little fertilizer will be required at the commencement but if in doubt a good complete ferâ€" tilizer is made up as follows:â€"4 parts sulphate of, ammonia, 3 parts acid phosphate, or steamed bone meal, and 1â€"part muriate of potash. Apply this at â€"the rate of 300 pounds per acre, Or 1 ounce ber square yard of lawn. Work well into the soil by raking. This ferâ€" tilizer may be used a couple of times during the growing season, applying it during wet weather, or at any time where plenty of water is available. Kinds of Grasses to Use â€"‘The standard lawn grass mixture is one consisting of Kentucky Blue Grass and White Dutch Clover. This gives, for general purposes, the most satisfacâ€" tory lawn. Where the owner cannot or will not give constant attention to cutting and topâ€"dressing there is other. grass to equal Kentucky Blug. It will withstand more drought, more careless cutting and abuse than any grass I know. In addition, it will make a very fine lawn when good treatment is accorded.

Article by an Expert on How to Have a Good Lawn and Keep it so. SI NP 8 C OS A A CSE W ELT 6 The question of g'rading or develling is a local and personal problem and I would only add the cautionary remark, to assure yourself that the top soil or the raw subâ€"soil left on top. See to it that the top soil, if it is of any use, is laid to one side to be spread over the gradedâ€"up area after grading Ooperaâ€" tions are completed. as follows:â€" Experimental Farm, OttaÂ¥tva, and reads last week he made lawns. At the article is by M. B. Davis, of the Central to to The Advance an article on the ing and Care of Lawns" that may be value to readers of The Advance. reference he gve of ‘This The Making and Care of Lawns When John F. Clark, lecturer for the Weeds in a lawn is probably the most difficult problem we have to face. The abundance of weeds which appear durâ€" ing the first sgason of a new lawn are mostly annuals and need not cause much worry. ‘They soon disappear with the frequent cuttings which prevent further seeding. Two weeds, namely, dandelions and plantain, however, do cause much trouble. YÂ¥ do not know of any suggested remedy for plantains except spudding, which, while it is a very labourious task, is at present the only remedy available. For the control of dandelions, a spray consisting of twentyâ€"five per cent. solution of sulâ€" phate of iron is frequently recommendâ€" ed and, if continued for a rew years, may result in the partial control of this week. The frequency of application is every two weeks for a twelve-week period. ‘This method of control â€" is worth a trial anywhere. If it fails, reâ€" sort to spudding which is certain to give results if practised assiduously. Bometimes lawns are troubled with the thymeâ€"leaved speedwell, which can only be eradicated by removal of that porâ€" tion of the sod affected, followed by a reseeding of that particular area. As many weeds do not like an acid soil, in which most lawn grasses will flourish, tilizer mixture previously referred to. ‘This, accompanied by top dressings of peat muck or any acid peat material will soon create an acid condition unsuitâ€" applications already mentioned. Where irrigation or watering can be practised the lawn can always be maintained in s green, vigorous condition. One hksavy soaking once a week is far superior to a light sprinkling every night. Ifwinter killing occurs, making the lawn patchy, this may be quickly reâ€" medied by loosening the soil of the killâ€" Brewery Creek, but doubtless each loâ€" cality has its own native bents which would do as well. We now come to the question of lawn maintenance, which we can briefly disâ€" cuss under the headings of weeds, rollâ€" ing, fertilizers and watering. ed with this : | - g the creeping bents are some of our finest grasses, which give us our most beautiful turfs, but only at the cost of continual work and attention. This is known as Agrostis stolonifera and the best strains are Washington, Metropolitan and Virginia. They are not propagated by seed but by stolons or the stems of the plant. They rcot at every internode and the chopped up stems are simply broadcast over the ground rather thickly and covered with bwo or three inches of soil. Sometimes the whole plants are lifted and run through a chopper and occasionally, where money is no object, the whole plant without being chopped up is used. In from six to eight weeks, if plenty of material is used, a good lawn is estabâ€" lished. An applitation of about â€"100 bushels of the cut stems to every 15,000 square feet of lawn is required for a f levelling down, and rollings during the summer will keep it in good condition. Rolling when the ground is dry or hard is of little avail; it should be practised after a rain or a heavy We have already discussed the kind 0f fertilizer to be used. It only reâ€" mains to point out that, if a good lawn is to be maintained, plant food is necesâ€" sary in some form. Probably a couple of times a season will suffice for the Now the secret of getting a good turf with these creeping bents is a daily cutting and lots of water. If not cut almost daily they grow rapidly and some of the stalks do not root, then after.a few cuttings a thick mat of unrooted ‘stalks is formed. ‘These turn brown or yellow after a time and the lawn has a sick look. You must cut continuously and also very close and water plentifully. If you are willing to do this you can create a fine, velvet carpet which will be the envy of all your neighbours. ‘Sometimes, where water is not availâ€" able and where the owners do not care to ‘cut so ofter, the native bents are used. ~These never form such a fine turf, but they are very nice. The best improvement in weed control may be obtained by refraining from the use of manure or lime,. Instead use the ferâ€" able to many weeds. A wellâ€"kept lawn needs some rolling. In early spring, before the lawn gets covered with sifted loam and rolled. Teck township council has made forâ€" mal protest against the poor telephone service which Kirkland Lake thinks it enjoys, or otherwise. ~At a recent meetâ€" ing of council, one of the councillors longed for the Bell Telephone Co. serâ€" vice. "The Bell system is upâ€"toâ€"date" he said.. "I‘d certainly like to get betâ€" ter service and rates here," remarked another .councillor. . The township soliâ€" citor, L. A. Lillico, informed the counâ€" cil that the Ontario Railway and Muniâ€" cipalâ€" Board had authority to rule on rates and other matters pertaining to public utilities like.the telephone Serâ€" vice. . Councillor Walter Little thought that if other places got better service than Kirkland Lake then scmething shouldâ€"be .done about it.. Timmins is not one of the places getting better serâ€" vice than Kirkland Lake.: For a time here the service improved a little but it seems to be going back again now to the decomposed ‘state. : One~of the improvements the Kirkland â€" Lake peoâ€" ple ~suggest â€"is the replacing of the "ring" type ‘of ~phone with the autoâ€" matic‘ phone. If.â€"Kirkland Lake will take ‘a tip from Timmins, it â€"will first insist on better ‘general service on â€"the phone.. Timmins has the newer type of phones that do not require ringing. With â€"good service these are fine, but they have their disadvantages.: The old "ring‘"‘ type was designed for poor serâ€" vice so that the harassed telepnone user could ‘get some of the illâ€"humour out of his system by making: that old bell buzz again when he could not get cenâ€" tral for minutes at a time. After a discussion on the poor telephone serâ€" vice in Kirkland Lake, the Teck townâ€" ship council decided:to meet some reâ€" presentatives of the telephone campany and talkâ€"over the: matter. â€" It is to be hoped that the Teck council will not be as completely bambozzled by the telephone representatives as occurred in one instance in Timmins. . KIRKLAND LAKE COMPLATINS OF ~TELEPHONE Frequently we get requests for inâ€" formation on the control of white grubs and worms. There is now available a very good solution for the control of these pests. Take two ounces of corâ€" rosive sublimate (mercuric bichloride) and add it to twenty gallons of water. Sprinkle the lawn with this mixture, giving a good application. Two or three minutes after a piece has been watered the worms will start coming to the surface, when a further sprink!â€" ing may be given, which will quickly cause their death. ‘The dead or parâ€" alysed worms may then be raked up and destroyed. FRAUDS ON LIEF GIVING TROUBLE NOW TO HAILEYBURY Relief "frauds" are giving the Halleyâ€" bury authorities some trouble. Some days ago a case was cited in which a family on relief had spent $40 in cash. and in another instance a man got quantity of provisions "with no ot.her claim to residence than three months in jaill" Two other families were cut off when the heads of the households failed to show up for work.. .« .. .?.........zv........??....:......“.....?.:?{.. ootesGeaGecte ~ dgsâ€"zs _ m Sittings of the Supreme Court for the districts of Temiskaming and Cochâ€" rane have been announced for next fall.
