The Children’s Aid Society of York County proposes to hold its Memâ€" bership Drive and first annual tag day on October 17th. The Society was officially incor- porated under its new Charter on January 16th, 1935. Its purposes and objects are to protect children from cruelty and neglect on the part of the parents, guardians, or others; to care for and control neglected chil- dren; to improve the home life of children; to secure foster homes for children who have no homes, or pro- per homes of their own, and to dis- charge the functions of a Children’s Aid Society under the Children’s Protection Act. 452 children are under the care and supervision of the Sbciety in foster homes. If they are to be guided and helped to become citizens of whom York County may justifi- ably be proud, the Society needs the interest and support of every citi- zen of York County. The homes of 335 children are also under superviâ€" sion because of reported neglect. The Society is trying to protect these children by improving their home conditions. 121 cases under the Un- married Parents Act also require much time in the effort to secure settlement from the father of the child, and to help the mother plan for her baby and herself. . The Children’s Aid Society of Yer-k County is the only County-wide so- cial organization, working exclus- ively for the welfare of the children of York County. They are our children, and as such, surely they Since the reorganization of the So- ciety, efforts have been made to un- derstand the personality of the chilâ€" dren under care; to keep in touch with them in order that they may be helped to become happy, Useful, well adjusted individuals. Foster homes have a large part to play in the work of the Society. In their choice have been considered the op- portunities they offer for the physi- cal, mental and spiritual developâ€" ment of the children involved. Ef- forts have been made to safeguard the health of the children through physical and dental examinations, and corrective treatment when neces- sary. Thought is given, also, to edu- cational and recreatiqnal opportuniâ€" ties for the children for whom the Society is responsible. GHILDREN‘S AID SOCIETY TAG DAY SAT’Y, OCT. 17th The first alfalfa crop was practi- cally a failure as far as seed was concerned but the second crop which is now being harvested is more pro- mising. United States also offers a ready market for alfalfa seed and if the yield is at all good should pro- vide a profitable crop for the farm- ers who have it. The red clover seed crop through- out this district was very short and a small crop although there is the occasional farmer who reports a fair yield. Farmers are receiving in the neigh- borhood of $1.00 per bushel for their wheat which this year was a good crop. The wheat situation in Can- ada is much improved and Europe has been buying in large quantities. Italy recently purchased two million bushels and experts estimate now that this year Canada’s wheat carry- over will be wiped out and our grain stock reduced to normal. About the average amount of fall wheat has been sown in townships in this dis- trict and the recent rains have brought it on quickly. A survey of the district shows that the barley crop of this year was not as good as» two years ago owing to the severe drought although The reciprocity pact entered into by the federal government follow- ing the last general election has brought many advantages to the Canadian farmer, one of which is the greatly improved price for al- sike. By the reciprocity pact the duty on alsike going into the USA. was reduced from $4.80 to $2.40 per bushel with the result that to-day there is a steady demand in the States for Canadian seed for the first time in six years. Alsike throughout York County was a good crop this year and farmers have been receiving from $6.50 to $8.00 per bushel for their seed. Alsike and Wheat Two of Besrt Paying Crops in this District.
