The people <>f the village were treated to a close view of an airplane on Monday afternoon, when a plane from Camp Borden circled over the village about 11 o'clock. It made a landing in Mr. Ern.

Many of the highways have the usual prolific crops along the sides of the road. Some of the farms throughout the countiry have crops of weeds which will soon be ripening and spreading their seeds to the four winds.

New lights are also being procured for the church. Mr. Clinton Henning spent Sunday vith his mother in Markdale.

OP THE (gattabiutt JHebiral Amroriatum CBAMT TLEMIHC. M.D. ~ ASSOCIATE SCCRFTAITY SUMMER CARE F THE BABY VICTORIA CORNERS There are certain conditions which occur during the hot weather, which are apt to cause upsets and disease among the babies. For this reason, it is necessary that special attention be given to certain points in order to keep tffe baby healthy and com-' fortable, and to protect him from disease the summer months. When the weather is hot, a bath, morning and night, is desirable. In addition, the Tery hot day is made more comfortable for the baby if he is given a cool plunge in the middle of the day. Many babies have a very uncomfort- able time during the warm weather because they are over-clothed. Not only are they made uncomfortable, but their sleep is disturbed, they per- spire and then they become chilled. The baby should be dressed according to the temperature, not to tfie time of year. A diaper alone, or a diaper and a thin sleeveless shirt, are suffic- ient clothing on a really hot summer day. During the summer, the baby be- comes thirsty more oftfcn, and so wants more water. Unsweetened boiled water should be offered to him at least once between each feeding. Thirst is very distressing, and as the baby cannot ask for a drink, he de- pends upon you to offer it to him. Just because he refuses it once, do not forget that he may become thirsty later on. Hndreds of babies die every summer from what is popularly known as "summer complaint Summer dia- rrhoea. The best way to prevent this loss of We to preVent the diarrhoea, diarrhoea. Breast-fed babiee very seldom con- tract thi~ Disease, and breast-feeding is therefore, the first and important tant point in prevention. Raw milk should not be given to ehildren. Pas- teurized milk shouRl be bought, or Ihe milk should be pastenrized at home. Failing either of these, the mHk should be boiled. Young child- ren annot resist the effects of milk containing large numbers of germs from barn yaw] contamination. If diarrhoea does occur parents should never forget that it is a very serious and often fatal condition un- less properly treated. There are I those who think they know how to , treat this condition although they :have had no training, and the results i of what they do are seen in the num- ber of babies they bury. If the child has diarrhoea, all feed- ings should be stopped. Let the child have as much unsweetened water as he will take, and give no medicine. Place the child under the doctor's care. To seme, this may seem an unnec- essary fu?s about what is a fairly common disease. To their objections we would answer that the hundreds of babies who now die of summer diarrhoea do so because the necessary attention was not given them. Deaths from this cause can be pre- vented by following the advice given in this article. SUMMER HOMES FOR HOGS The hog does not require an expen- sive home. Not only that, but best results are actually obtained from tho cheaper equipment. Two or three cabins and a box stall for the far'-cw- ing sow will supply the necessary housing in the case af a farmer who grows a few hogs. Experiments have proved successful with cabins con- structed of strong though relatively light material and provided with hinged sides for free passage of air in the summer season. They are built on runners so as to be t-asilj shifted frm place to place. The A- shaped cabin is subject to damage by the pressure of the hogs from out- side. The upright cabin with the peaked roof will last for years. A circular is available at your local agricultural office giving spe?ifica- tions for a suitable summer home, when tightened up and properly pro- tected, makes an all-year hog house. Three hundred students of Went- worth County recently visited and ' made a tour of inspection of the O.A. C., Guelph, as a result of which they . obtained much worthwhile inform*. ! tion. It is hoped that other counties may follow the lead set by Wentworth. Mr. and Mr*. Les Brook? and fain-] ily and Mr. Jack Greaves of Toronto visited ut Milton Bannons on their way homo from the Phillips reunion. Mr. and Mrs. Cha>. Moore attended ;i:i- graduation exeivi-.s nt the Laf- ayctto General Hospital, Buffalo, N. Y. on Wednesday eve. when thoir eldest daughter, Margaret, and Mary Nixon, formerly of this br 'g received their diplonas. They rpent the rest of tho week at Smithville. 1 "i i Beamish visited her friend, Myrtle Moore for a fow d-iy.; last week. Jns. Lot'khart held a very success- ful auction sale last Tuesday. Mr. Jas. Vause has started the erection of a house on the foundation where Mr. Lockhart's hou.se was burn- ed a couple of weeks ago.
