municipalities was collected by the province through the federal income offices the amount returned to the town treasurer et stoutfville and the town ships surrounding was nil as they collected nothing this cumbersome system is to be discontinued and the province retains the full amount of income tax collected this will save considerable- bookkeeping in the provincial treasurers office in return for retaining the municipal income tax the province will pay the entire cost of old age pensions and mothers allowances now borne by the municipalities a considerable saving to them at present the dominion pays 75 per cent of the cost of oldage pensions the province 15 per cent and the municipality 10 per cent mothers allowances costs are borne entirely by the province and the municipality on a 5050 basis municipalities will carry on as at present until the legislation has been passed and thereafter the necessary adjustments will be made by the province the necessary legislation for the changed system will be made at the present session of the legislature xo fewer than 935 municipalities in ontario will benefit by the change and stoutfville and every township about us will benefit now that the entire cost has been shifted from the municipalities to the province old age pensions and mothers allow ances boards are nsked to play the gamo fairly as ever so as not to place too great a burden on the pro vincial treasury when the mothers allowances act was changed last year to include widows with only one child the additional cost was about 4 million dollars for the 2600 extra

large in comparison with that of a city daily it is often remarkable how far the news pub lished in such a journal travels and how much it accomplishes illus trating this we read last week a story in the kincardine news on the farm of duncan mcgregor a farmer of the kincardine vicinity a horse kicked his brotherinlaw and the story was reported in the news a reader in alberta received his copy of the kincardine paper and read of the accident when visiting a neighbor whose name was mcgregor he asked if he were per chance any relation to the duncan mcgregor of kincardine of whom ho had lately read it turned out that the two mcgregors were brothers and had not heard from each other tor thirtyseven years correspon dence was commenced and now the two brothers thanks to the old home paper are in communication again there is no worthy institution that needs your support and assistance more than your old home paper the local journal that is your commun itys best advertisement and tho link

ground is hard she scratches harder it its dry she digs deeper if she strikes a rock she works around it but al ways she digs up worms and turns them into hardboiled profits did you ever know of a hen starving waiting for worms to dig themselves to the surface did you ever hear one cackle because times were hard not on your life she saves her breath for digging and her cackle for eggs yes sir a

and pyjama cloth do not miss this sale the w h shaw store iocxox joe30i one of the most spectacular features of the news of the past week was the anouncement that the plant breeders at ottawa had been sussessful in growing several kinds of perennial wheat as many wonders have already come from those same plant breeders at the central experimental farm and as they are always conservative in their statement it may be taken for grandted that they have been successful in their now venture and that they have at least made a start towards achieving a goal which will possibly benefit canada as much ap their earlymaturing wheat have al ready done the perennial wheat would be sown once like a grass and would bear crops of wheat year after year it is stated that the wheat will not be good for bread making but that wont matter much for there is usually plenty of wheat in tho world without the new kinds but perennial wheat offers a new weapon in tho war against drought and soil drifting on the prairies if a perennial wheat can he grown in place of a grass it may stop drift ing and in time will restore fertility to the soil if it yields a crop of grain at the same time that is a pure gain
