Mr. Kern ton sent the bird to The Advance office for us to fathom out what it was. \Ve asked quit." a number in town what. they thought it was and a bald headed eagle to a vulture. It was finally decided that the strach was a Turkey Buzzard, a ‘and short legs with feet like a tur-, ' the bird species of the vulture tribe. It had, a bald head with dark feathers on the neck. dark feathered body and‘ wings, the latter lighter underneath ‘ key‘s, not with talons like the eagle or hawk families.

The bird had a wing spread of five feet and dild not weigh more than a pound and a half. It is not vcly often that these birds are seen so far north, it created considerable interest when shown about townâ€"Flesherton Ad'- vance. HORSES 0N FARMS Are horses in danger of .being completely displaced on farms in Canada? asks the Windsor Border Cities Star. Ever since the advent of automobiles. truck and tractors, certain individuals have been venb- ally discarding these animals from the scene, saying that their day is past. To be perfectly fair to old Dobbin, let us see just what has happened‘ since the turn of the century, so that we can therefrom predict what i may happen in the future. In 1901, before the West was com- pletely opened up, and before cars, trucks or tractors were being pur- chased, there were 1,577,493 horses in Canada. according to figures pub- lished by The Halifax Herald. But with the growing demand! in the West, by 1921i there were no fewer than 3,451,752. By 1931, the num- ber had declined to 3,113,909. Recent statistics by the Ontario Department of Agriculture, give a clear picture of the trend in Ontario. In 1901, there were 620,343 horses in the province. By 1911 the num- ber was 737,916. The maximum was reached in 1915 with 779.1311. but by Week-End Specials Just wrecked â€"Maple Leaf Truck â€"Parts reasonable I . . . 1935 V8 Motor, completely rebuilt . . . . . . . . . . $59-50 mal'ltlme provmce. per farm rest- 13 Plate National Batteries . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $4.75 dent, than 30 years ago. $1.00 Allowance on Old Battery From these Statistics, it would All size retread tires, 20,000 mile guarantee $4.65 up Good Used Tires, all sizes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $2.25 COMPLETE STOCK OF Re-built Fuel Pumps, Carburetors Windshield Wipers, Generators and Starters 100 CARS WANTED For Wrecking at once YORK AUTO PARTS 6189 Yonge St. Newtonbrook Zone 8-218 IF IT’S FOR CAR OR TRUCK WE HAVE IT TONY SAVES YOU MONEY _ 1921 there were only 694.237. In 1931 there was a further decrease to 578,157, while last year there were 560.711. The fact remains, in spite of the decline in recent years, there are only 60,000 1955 horses in Ontario than at the turn of the century, in spite of the thousands of motor cars, trucks and tractors which are in use. i In the meantime, horses have prac-l itically disappeared from the streets of large cities. If thiis is taken into consideration, there are probably as many horses on the farms of On- tario today, if not more, than back in 1901. In Nova Scotia, there are almost 20,000 fewer horses than in 1911. But there are also 90,000 fewer farm dwellers, so that actually more horses work on the farms of the seem that the disappearance of the horse from the Ontario farm largely a myth. is You can tell which of two women who gets maddest when both appear in public wearing identical hats.

Heavy rains during the last two days of July and since over pract'callv the> entire province arrile in time to‘ prevent permanent damage to latecrops from occurring. but were only of limited benefit to early springi grains, a considerable percentage of which were either cut or ready for harvesting at. the end of July. Threshing results from fall wheat are quite good this season. For the province as a whole the preliminary forecast of yield is placed at 30.5 els per acre in 1938 and 26.0 bushels in 1937. The acreage harvested this year amounting to 735.000 acres as against 742.100 in 1938. shows a slight reduction. but total production is up considerably on account of the increased yield per acre. This year's crop amounting to 22,382,100 bushels compares with 19,805,800 bushels last year, and with the exception of the year 1925 is the largest since 1915. , The quality of the crop is excellent but the current farm price is c0n- siderably lower than that obtained in 1938 or during the preceding sevâ€" eral years. The harvesting of spring grains was under way in all sections of Old Ontario at the end of July and' the greater proportion of barley and early oats have now been cut. Yields per acre in the crop district designatâ€" ed Western Ontario which includes Bruce, Huron, Perth, Waterloo, Sim- coe, etc, will be very satisfactory, but in most of the remaining coun_ ties of Old Ontario the outturn will be below average. In Lincoln, Haldi- manrd, Durham, Hastings, Northum- berland, Peterborough, Frontenac, Grenville and Renfrew the average yield of spring grains will be con- siderably under normal. The stand of spring grains throughout North- ern Ontario is quite good with the exception of Algoma, Sudlbury and Timiskaming, where crops vary widely in appearance. The condition figures. for the entire province as reported by crop correspondents at August lst showed the prospect for spring grain yields at about ten per cent. below average. Recent down- pours w'll be very beneficial to late oat fields. 1 Potatoes, roots. corn and buckâ€" iyheiat were retarded by a lack of precipitation dur'ng July and were in below average condition at the end of the month. Plentifrl supplies of moisture during the last ten days have greatly improved the outlook for these crops and have helped to ‘revive pastures which were in very poor condition in Southern, Central, and Eastern Ontario. ‘ MAN BITES A DENTIST , There is a newspaper axiom that lit is not news if a dog bites a man. ‘ gbut is news if a man bites a dog. 1A Midâ€"West American made the inews columns, rightly so, the other day when he bit a dentist because lthe teeth the dentist supplied him {with did not fit. 1 That is one way of making an “impression” on the dentist and no doubt the practitioner both felt it as ,‘well as had ocular evidence of it. Only the wearer can really tell if ithe dentures fit or not, and he finds ‘if difficult to accept the dentist’s is socially superior. She is the one iword that in time they will be all, iright. The dentist may insist that the lateral incisors dove-tail into the [corresponding positions, but when jthe whole system of works literally ifalls down itangled up with objects of masticaâ€" ition. the unhappy patient may have :to offer convincing evidence of it. ‘ The wearer in this case adopted i a drastic but condign method of de- ‘monstration. and one that is not to be advocated as the accepted prac-' tice. An "impression" of that kind, however. on the fleshy part of the dentist‘s darb. should certainly bring- ' Cedar Posts 5 inch 25c., 6 inch 300. on the job and gets; THURSDAY.
