Res. 82-W FOR.SALE BY SHEPPARD AND GILL LUMBER (30., Limited ALL PRICES GOING DOWN GENERALLY Speaking, a business man is averse to having his stationery changed from the accepted form. For ten, twenty, or more years it has conformed to a rigid standard, and usually, he feels it should be kept so. 11 But consider this: If the business itself was conducted on a basis of 1910 merchandising policies would the custom- ers of 1930 patronize that business? Attmctively fl Business stationery and printed forms are an integral part of every going concern. When a customer or business associate reads a message or invoice from an indifferently printed or constructed p_iece of stationery the impression is not good. PROTECT your family by making your Summer home draught-proof, dust- proof and fire-safe. The new Ivory coloured Gyproc, that does not burn will render you this service at small cost. 11 Next time you require printing think over it a while. It’s worth a lot of thought.

Clemons, agricultural represen tative in North Wellington, estimates that West Luther Township alone will have about 4,000 acres of summer fa]- low. “Nothing has improved our crop yield so much and reduced our weeds Imore than July plowing," he declares. "‘Some have found however, that when a great deal of work is put on a clay field, it runs badly in the spring and becomes wet and soggy, remaining so until it becomes hard on top and pro- duces a later crop than one would exâ€" pect. I This may be overcome to a great extent by duck footing in’ the 'fall with a cultivator and some far- lmers are planning on ridging with a ,plow. Ridging summer fallows with a 'plow is highly reccommended in clay iareas.” A considerable reduuction in the seed crop of alsike and red clover is officially forecast for 1930. Onario is expected to produce not more than 70,000 bushels of alsike or about one- third of the 1929 production. An in- creased acreage of alfalfa is being Lheld for seed in Ontario. There was practically no carry-over of alfalfa seed and owing to the extent to which \this year’s crop was winter killed it tis expected there will be a good de- mand for alfalfa seed during the com- ing season. So far this season ten field meet- ings have been held in Kent, Essex, Elgin, Middlesex, Welland, Oxford, ’Waterloo and Wellington. Further ‘meetings are planned as the later crops reach maturity. At each meet- ing the crops are inspected and a gen- ;eral discussion opened on the subject iof fertilizers, led by soil fertility ex- }perts from the O.A.C. Testing Fertilizers A new method of bringing the On- tario Agricultral College into contact with farmers is the practice of hold~ ing evening meetings on field demon- strations with fertilizers. These dem- onstrations, of which several hundred were laid out on a variety of crops throughout the province, consist of plots of half-acre or acre size, on which difl’erent combinations of fertilizing elements are compared with unfertiliz- ed plots and with one another under practical farming conditions. This work has been made possible by co- operation of the college, county repre- sentatives, farmer demonstrators and fertilizer interests. It Takes Brains “It takes more brains to be a farâ€" mer than to be a high court judge,” asserted J. Lockie Wilson at a recent gathering of provincial fair judges. .“There never was a greater need for coâ€"operation between the scientist and the farmer than to-day. The most scientific business at the present time is farming,” he added. I NEWS AND INFORMATION FOR THE BUSY FARMER IOHO =o=oa Reduction in Alsike THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILiLK ONTAng ‘ Dairying in‘the North ‘ In 1917, the Ontario Government [demonstrated its interest in the dairy industry of the North Country by es- tablishing a creamery at New Liscard. IThis creamery was opened in March 'of that year and until the end of Dec- lember of the same year, drawing 'cream from as far north as Cochrane and east and west on the Transcontn- Iental, manufactured 40,000 pounds of butter. This was the only creamery ‘along the T. & N. O. at that time, but lsince then, four other creameries have ,been located in the District of Temis- 1kaming and more in the district of Cochrane. Last year, namely, 1929, the butter output of the districts of ‘Temiskaming and Cochrane, was well lover one million pounds. This is conâ€" 'crete evidence of the progress the dairy industry has made in this part of Northern Ontario. This year all creameries report increased produc- tion over last year. The Barrie unior Fair of 1929 was one of the outstanding features of the Barrie Fall Fair. With 50 Junior exhibitors with 227 entries, including live stock, poultry, field crops of vari- ous kinds, a very creditable showing nrize list and the addition of a Junior Girl’s Section, it is expected that the Fair will reach 150 to 250 Juniors as exhibitors. From the present pros- pects it is expected that there will be over 80 entries of live stock alone, to accomodate which the Barrie Kiwanis Club is building a modern live stock building 135 feet in length by 25 feet in width. The competition will also be heavy in poultry, potatoes and crop products, while a special feature of the indoor exhibit will be 70 displays of home Garden produce. The Junior Fair is demonstrating more forcibly each year its value as an encouraging factor in Agricultural improvement. It is not to be con- fused with School Fairs but is rather a connecting link between School Fair and Fall Fair, appealing chiefly ’to those between 14 and 20 ears. Al'- readv numerous incidents have been observed of the purchase of purebred stock and registered seed grain and potatoes; and other evidences of in- creased interest and enthusiasm in farming by the young people as a direct result of the Junior Fair. Oak Ridges“ and District are still suffering from lack of rain. Late poâ€" tatoes and root crops are likely to be a: failure, and wells’ are beginning to feel the effects 6f the continued droughtf Thuugh rain has fallen all arofnd, Oak Ridges still remains dry.

In the meantime he and his family will live in one of Mr. Gardner’s houses on the west side of Yonge Street. A very successful Masquerade Dance ‘was held on Safcurday last, at the Pavilion of Percy Ash, Wilcox Lake. ’Costumes were very good and over ithirty dollars was given in prizes.
