WEDNESDAY, JUNES, 1931 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE FARMING HAS ADVANTAGES OVER LIVING IN CITY The family which possesses a piece of land and will work it so thai it will poduce the things they must have to sustain life, is vastly better off than the general run of population of tho towns and cities, even though they might be out of unemployment now. It has been a long, hard pull lately tor the farmers, but they are not without something with which to pull, ns is the unhappy condition of the un- employed in the cities. And that is the reason why the people of the agricultural districts are the most substantial citizens of Canada. Producing their living from the soil with the work of Mother Nat- ure, the farmers are as near to com- plete independence as it is possible to attain. Farming is one occupation in which the individual may still engage on his own account, and thus provide a home and employment with the reason- able assurance of some returns for himself and family. Listowel Banner A majority of the Women's Insti- tutes in Ontario are holding summer meetings, which will be addressed by lecturers from tho department. Well informed as to institute aims, methods and accomlishments, they will dis- cuss with the officers and members i ways and means of making the local branch's activities more effective.

There are in the body certain im- portant glands which produce secret- ions which control, in large measure, many important functions of the body. It is in the blood stream that these in- ternal secretions are circulated. It is obvious that the blood, which forms about one-twentieth of the body weight, is a most important part of th" body. The blood itself is subject to cer- tain diseases, such as the anaemias, which alter its composition and inter- <Vrr with the carrying-out of its nor- mal functions associated with the nutrition of the body and removal of wastes. In the minds of many people, there is the idea that when they feel miser- able or run-down, particularly if this occurs in the spring of the year, that belief. The composition otf the blood does not change unless there is actual disease of the blood itself, and it is not to such cases that we refer. Pimples, boils or other skin condit- ions are not due to poor blood, nor are they the result of nature's trying to rid the blood of its impurities. In many of these cases, there is a story of neglect of all these habits of life which must receive attention i!' the body is to be kept in a state of health. It is much easier to blame the con- dition of poor blood than on lack of erercise, fresh air, cleanliness of the body, or overeating. It is because so many people neglect these impor- tant matters during the winter that we hear more complaints of poor blood in the spring than at any other season c the year. It is not through medicines that the body is ki-pt healthy; it is through a proper manner of living. Exercise in the open air daily, sleeping in room with the window open, keeping the body clean by regular bathing, moderate use of food in a balanced diet, securing regular elimination by the formation of regular habits these are the habits of life which make for health, physical fitness and freedom from the ill effects which Arrangements now complete for the )i<y u r u ricmc 'MfZi ^^ mMk Q\JQ & A^JLAA^* JULY 1st, 1931 Lever's Grove, FLESHERTON Full program of field sports Horseshoe Pitching Tournament Torn Hamilton Concert Party, entirely new Large polished Dance Platform Dory's Radio Orchestra and other new attractions SOMETHING DOING ALL THE TIME R.

APPROVED CHICKS IN DEMAND A heavy demand for approved chicks is reported this spring, with the result that many of the approved hatcheries have orders booked which are taxing their capacity. May chicks mean No- vember checks, and that slogan is one which seems to have taken hold of the farmer's fancy. A review of the egg market in Can- ada during recent years shows that the higher prices prevail during the late fall and early winter months be- fore the flush of general production comes in. That is why the farmer who buys approved chicks early in the sea- The Weed Menace A. R. G. Smith, Western Ontario Weed Controll Supervisor, and Chas. Galbraith of O. A.

Despite strenuous ef- forts exerted last summer, they point out, the sow thistle is not un- der control. It continued to spread during the growing season of 1930, and is now in every township in On- tario.

TWO REASONS On ( . reason thp city newspaper man cnp "print all the news that is fit to orint" is because he does not have to live in close daily association with his victims as does the country paperman. Another reason is he has no oppor- tunity for close-up views of results of prying 'into intimate personal affairs and laying them bare to public gaze. It is no excuse to say the public de- mnnds such things. All of us want to know lots of things that are none of our business. Printer Journalist.

It is very gratifying to note- th e increase in the number of British films being shown in Canadian the- atres. This move on the part of the distributors is long overdue, as Can- adians are getting pretty tired of seeing and hearng so much Amert- .an stuff which glorifies the United States and her flag.
