Minimum quantities for each are established. Fertilizer constituent materials are standardized and subject to minimum percentages of plant food substances. Every fertilizer must be labelled to show the brand names and gua-ran-‘ teed analysis. An exchange urges farmers to be wary of certain unscrupuIOus persons who are offering miracle seeds for sale at this time of year. The gen,- eral practice is to take ordinary seed, apply an pxtravagant name, such as Bonanza, Bountiful, 01- Miracle, and offer it for sale at an exhorbitant ‘price. It may even 'be represented as coming from a mysterious source, with only a limited quantity avail- able. Strange to say, these salesmen find farmers who accept the story of big- yields and pay good money for ordinary seed, only to find later, 'that they have been duped. Since 1892 Rochester, New York, has developed through purchase and exchange the largest collection of lilacs in the worldâ€"over 1000 shrubs, representing 384 species. At the height of their beauty each year, a week is set apart by the city to cele- brate the Lila; Festival, a fete which draws nearly 100,000 visitors from all over the country. RICHMON D HILL, ONTAR H A Suffolk ewe, rising three years of age and owned by Charles Ander- son, Oro, has set some sért of a record‘ for prolificity, Two years ago, she gave birth to twins, a yegr ago to triplets, and just recently to trip- letsâ€"a total of eight lambs. The ewe was raiSed by Delno Jermey, Hawkestone, and was sired! by a ram supplied to Oro Sh-eep Club by the Dominion Department of Agricul- ture. Ontario‘s surplus of three million for 1937-38, after charging relief costs to ordinary account is another worth-while achievement which Pre- mier Mitchell Heplburn can add to the already impressive financial re- cord of his administration. True the surplus is smaller than the nine mil- lions reported last year, but taxes have been reduced and many ex- penditures taken- over from, munici- palities. ‘ The farmer is getting the break on the hog market, for which he has waited a long time, says the Allis- ton Herald, in their interesting- live stock column. A farmer selling a lot of eight hogs which a few years ago would have sold! for a total of about $60 brought the vendor $163. Aurora Jubilee Juniors were elim- inated in the final game for the On- 'tario Junior C provincial champion- ship [by Orangeville last Monday ev- ening.

Pussyuwillows are now in 'bloom and are in much demand. Grass on lawns is turning green and while Because the odd County Councillor Starts shouting don’t get the impres- sion all members of County Coun- cils think ‘the same. Many members of County Council agree with the suggestion to abolish the County spoke of government. ‘ “County Councils are a Joke” says a. member of the Legislature speak- ing this week. All expensive joke, adds the taxpayer. General News & Views WAY BACK IN Rnc'f npw: pf‘ H19 wnnk- “(Tmmtvj‘ Best news cf the week: “County Councils.Likely to be Abolished.” “Bluff and hearty men,” says a psychologist, “are leaders.” And just at present they boss the world with- out using the hearty part.

A margin of 25,- 000,000! is something to be reckoned with. The C.P.R. s-tatiOn in the/village of Weston was destroyed about 4 o’clock Saturday morning by a fire . which is supposed to have been caus- ied by lightning. Books, papers and contents all consumed. By hard WOrk ‘the freight sheds were saved. The Victoria Square Rifle Club is still doing business at the old stand. As the end of the season is draw- ing- towards its close there is keen I competition among the members for the highest average score through- out the whole season, and notwith- standdng that most of the members are old-timers, it is a very trying time on their nerves. The follow- ing are the scores for March let iand 28th: R. Agar '94, W. Scott 85, l R. Frisby 79, T. Read! 78, C. P.7Read 77; W. “Mustard 96, R. Agani84, W. Scott 82, T. Read 74, C. P. Read 66. EUROPEAN STRENGTH France is taking a very realistic view of the present European line- up when her newspapers point out that Germany and! Italy combined- now have almost three times the population, and therefore three times the mobilization strength of Frame. Germany and Austria combined have 72,000,000 people, Italy 42,000,000, and France 42,000,000. Add Brit- ain’s 47,000,000 to France’s total and Citizens of this place are natur- ally disappointed because the pro- posed biil‘l to bring water from the artesian wells in the vicinity of Le- monville was lost in a committee of the Ontario Legislature. to replace one of the baf‘nrs burned a few months ago. There was a large crowd present, and the werk was completed by 5.30 o’clock. Mr. Rumlble purposes erecting another larger barn later in! the season. From our Issue of April 2nd, 1908 Mr. John Tyndall and family who have resided at Carrville for a num- ber of years past have moved onto the Powell farm at the end of Rich- mond Street, which they recently purchased from the Storey estate. Probably the first “raising” of the season in this section of' country took pl‘ace on the farm of Mr. Henry Rumble, lot 21, 3rd con. Vaughan, last Friday when the frame work of a barn 40x72 was erected. This is Eggs will scarcely be so plentiful for Easter Sund'ay as they would‘ have had the warm weather of March continued through the fore part of April. The Thomhil] Public Library Board‘ met on Wednesday evening, when the best of satisfaction was manifested with the progress made thus far. The total number of volumes have now reached 577, and others are to be added from time to time as the fund‘s come in. These with the daily Mr. John Brown had a successful sale yesterday and was well pleased with the result. Messrs. Eckardt and Prentice wielded the gavel by turns, and got through a large list quite early in the evening. Implements sold well, and cattle brought good figures. One cow was carried along until the price reached $54. Mr. W. H. Pugsley with the county engineer and several others went on Wedmesday to lay out an extension of the Toronto Street Railway line as far east as Highland Creek.
