A meeting that should prove of interest to the farmers in the district was announced for Wed- nesday, Feb. 14th, in the Township Hall, when representatives of the Canadian Soya Bean Organization will be pleased to discuss the growing of Soya Beans under contract with them. Ninety-six similar meetings have been arranged throughout the Province. The culture of these beans promises to become popular with farmers, as the time for cultivation will not seriously'interfere with other field culture, being planted in May and harvested the end of August or early September. Already they are grown quite extensively around Chatham and Milton, a mill being erected that extracts the oil from the beans which has :been used success- fully as a paint oil. The same pro- cedure will be possible in this diS- trict if enough farmersbecome inter- ested in the project. â€"The Nicest Valentineâ€" "The nicest valentine to give One’s friends, is not of lace an verses; It’s not a. valentine folks buy With well filled purses.

David Marsha“ of British Guiana, former minister here of the Presbyterian Church, tells of the ter- rible conditions existing in that part of the world to-day. The country was swept by a terrific storm and lightning and rain spread desolation throughout the land. For nearly two {hundred miles the water stretches some places four, five and six feet in depth. The only mode of travel in many places is by boat. crops have been destroyed and thousands of sheep, cattle and other animals have been drowned; All the schools in the country are closed and although pres ent conditions are terrible it is th aftermath which is most feared. Rc‘. Marshall says “present conditions :11“ bad but when the water subsides an thousands of dead animals are ex posed to the tropical heat you ca imagine what life will be here.” Th inevitable aftermath of such cm ditions is much sickness, dis-ease an. death among the people. Miss Jessie Wark of Unionvillc spent Sunday at her home here. Mr. and Mrs. Bob McLeod! of Claremont visited on Sunday at. Mr. W. Bone’s. The annual dedication and worship service in the Carrville community will be held in the Church Friday eve- ning, Feb. 9th at 8 o’qlock.

ALL STAR HOCKEY GAME AT THE RINK NEXT TUESDAY ' NIGHT MOTHER AND DAUGHTER BANQUET VELLORE HEARD AT THE COUNCIL MEETING MONDAY NIGHT Reeve Greene announced that he had taken up with the T.T.C. the mat- ter of better heating of radial cars, and he hoped passengers were now able to ride with more comfort. There were a number of complaints about the poor heating of the cars. Councillor Wes Middleton, chair- man of the Relief Committee, com- plained that the members were not very faithful in attendance. He sug- gested that the committee be made smaller if the members did not-take more interest. At th last meeting only two members and the chairman showed up. The Reeve suggested that post card notices be sent to the members. THAT CITY ADVICE i Acton Free Presszâ€"A city paper! gave an article the other day, head-1 ed, “What Our Farmers Must Do To, Prosper.” No editor of a weekly. newspaper who meets the farmers daily would attempt any such article. I The average farmer has tried most- every method known to exist, and is in rather a poor frame of mind for! city advice on running his business. 3 Reeve Greene expressed his apprec- iation of the co-operation of the 3oard of Education in reducing ex- penditures last year and stated he looked forward to a continuance of that fine co-operation in 1934. The members ‘discussed the improve ment of the clerk’s office. The plasâ€" ter on the west wall is badly cracked and does not present a very inviting appearance. It was thought for a. small cost it could be greatly im- proved. Councillor Middleton will secure prices for replaster'mg the wall. ' The relief problem is still a major one for the council and there was con- siderable discussion of the subject by the members. Through the efforts of the council :1 number of men have been. given employment on the dif- ferent highway jobs but there are utill many men who need work. The photograph of Richmond Hill year now adorns council chamber. Council declined membership in the Ontario Municipal Association. In answer to a. question by counâ€" cillor Neal, clerk A. J. Hume stated that only commercial users of water were permitted to buy their own meters. Councillor Neal said he ask- ed the question because he had heard that some were permitted to buy their own meters and thus avoid the ser- vice charge. The clerk explained that there were no domestic users allowed to do this. The usual annual additions to the fire equipment of 100 feet of hose and two pair rubber boots were made by the council. ' The attention of the M.O.H. was Lirected to the case of a party selling milk in the village contrary to the 'illage regulations. RAISE More PULLETS From Every 10 3 Chicks FATHER AND SON BANQUET MR.
