M.D. ASSOCIATE SECRETARY PACIFIERS OK COMFORTS The pacifier or comfort is one of the few things for which not one good j word can he .<aid. It is undesirable from every point of view. To begin with, this article is mis- named, because it does not pacify the baby. It does the very reverse. The constant -.sucking of the comfort makes the child irritable and tends to up.--.ft him. True, it may stop hi* crying ior the time being, but it does so simply because he has succeeded in (retting what he wants. The reason he cries for his comfort k> because he has been given the habit of having one That does not mean it is good for him. It simply in- dicates that he has required the bad habit of having something in his mouth, just as some older people want to chew gum constantly. The pacifier docs actual harm. It causes a deformity to the mouth, t-ommnnly seen in projecting teeth. The bones of the baby'.! body are rather solt and so they are easily moulded by pressure. Thi; constant Bucking of the ttmfort forces the bones around the mouth into an ab- normal shape and destroys the natural formation of that part. The pacifier may and frequently is the means whereby d: ieaso germs gain entrance into the child's body. It is impossible to keep a comfort clean. No mother would think of using nip- ples t>n a feeding bottle for her baby unless they had been boiled. Neither shoud slio think of placing a comfort in the baby's mouth unless it had been boiled each time it had camo into con- tact with soim'thir.g, and tnat w not pKu-tiiv.hlf. What a.-Uially happens is that the comfort is constantly moist and it cor.ift;' into cont: f * with many articles even if it hangs from the child's neck. The result is that it is continually soiled by the many ob- jects which it touches, and so it fre- quently picks up the germs ol disea.-o and these are later transferred by it to the baby'.; mouth. There is no reason why a child should be constantly sucking at some- thing. The comfort does not help to keep the baby healthy or to make him happy The child who is irritable has something wron^c with him which needs to be properly dealt with, an'l ihe way to do this is certainly not by slicking a comfort into his :nouth. Babies do ru>t need a comfort any more than they need to be rocked to sleep or to wear long clothes. We have learned to let Ihe baby go to sleep quietly by himself and to clothe him -.-o that he may kick and exercise. In the same way, let us discard the comfort which in addition to being useless is harmful. W. M. S. Meeting The \V. M. S. of the United church met on Wednesday last with Mrs. .1 A. Heard in the chair and i j iir!iteen members present. A hymn was :-ung and the Lord'.; Prayer repeated in unison, after whbh Mrs. W. I. Henry read the scripture lesson and Mrs. Frank L)un<>mi read the devot- ionnl leaflet. The hymn, "See how (Treat a flame aspires" was sung and Mi.i. W. J. Scott gave a resume of the Study Book mentioning Kagawa nf Japan and the Kingdom of God movement. Mrs. Scott then took the chair and minutes of last meeting were read and adopted. Arrangements v.-c-rc made for the Sectional Confereiuc to be held in Pricevillc en Tuesday. Octohe; 1 2nd at 2:30 p.m. and 7:30. i'eas will be served at six o'clock and a charge of 25c made. It K hoped that those who have cars will vr,hi:i ULI- to use them to convey dalegatc.i ' the meeting. Mrs. McRae, 3rd V*. P. of the Dominion Board will he present, and possibly Miss Hawkcn, ! who hps snr^t From" vears among the foreigners in the west. It is [expected that this will be a meeting of grat inspiration so we hope for j si large attendance. Phone your name to Mrs. S.-ott.

A prominent Caleclon farmer r.p- pciired in Brampton police court charged wiih allowing hn cattle to run af large on I'.ie King's Highway. No. 10. When he explained how he was partly irresponsible ;for their being at large, Magistrate Bull dis- missed the case with costs. Fergus now boasts a real hunt club. ' Faps Undermanned * ^ Taking the statement of the north Simcoe district agricultural represent- ative that seventy-five per cent of the farms in the country are undermann- ed, as a subject, the Kimcoc Reformer makes interesting, comment. It say-.-. "he has touched upon one of the most serious phases of the present acute situation, one link in a vicious circle that is causing widespread distress. The farmer, receiving discouragingly low prices for his produce cannot af- ford to hire men. Therefore there are unemployed who must l>e supported by the community in which they live. Thus increases taxation and reduces purchasing power, thereby again con- tributing to low prices for farm pro- ducts. Something is radically wrong with our system of livinjr when far- mers have not the man-power to har- vest their crops, when in many cases they prefer to leave them in the field because the returns are so small, while at the samr time thousand; of men, women and little children in the jitics have not sufficient sustenance to keep them alive. It is difficult to put otie's finger on a constructive suggestion to solve this problem, but it is certain that our leaders should be devoting their thought to it, be- cause it Ik * at the root of the exist- ing depression." FINK ROOT CUOI' _ Roots in the different field plot experiments at O. A. C. are look iny; particularly well and have been visited by many members of the com- mercial seed trade. A visit would well repay any farmers particularly interested in this crop. Incidently the demand this autumn by farmers for material for co-operative experi- 1 ments over Ontario has been greater | up to this time tflian during 1930. Much admiration has been expressed for the fine stand of soy beans at the Collet'c. HOW ARE TRAMPS MADE? A tramp was asked how he decided which way he would tramp and his answer was, "I always turn my back to the wind." That was what made him a tramp. He never had the cour- age to go courageously on in its teeth, or he would have ceased to he a tramp and have bevome a man. Alas! many people with plenty of money in their pockets are only tramps who turn thwr backs to the wind and thus lose the real joy and achievement of life. PEDIGREED COCKERELS The quality of the male -bird is more important for success in breed- ing poultry for production than any other single factor. This is a prin- cijiie which has been - accepted fo. many years, and each succeeding yeai in pedigree breeding work shows more conclusively that it M sound. It it largely through the male bird that th< benefits of high power blood lines developed through specialized breed- ing are passed along to the advantage oi farm flocks generally. Heretofore the cost of pedigreed male birds has been such as to place them beyond the reach of the average farn'.i'r. By arrangement with breed- er.; thlj year, however, a supply of cockerels of really fine duality are brim: made available at a cost not to exceed $5 per bird. The federal Department of Agriculture is assum- ng one-third of this cost and is pay- ng Iran.- portaton charges to dis- .ribution points. The bulk of the supply of these birds comes from R. O. P. breeders in the several prov- inc'-s. "KAVY APPLE CROP Eastern Canada will have 'an in- crease of from 20 to 30 per cen;. in it.) apple crop over last year, while i decrease of 22 per cent is indicated for British Columbia. The total crop this year is expected to amount to :i. 000,000 barrels, as compared with 3,400,000 barrels last year, and 3,200, 000 barrels for the five-year average. Present indications ar^ that apples will run average or better in size and weather condition-.* have been su'.'h that color should be good. Capita creates opportunity! Send The Advance to a friend.

Ariesnesia Fair Largest In Grey The hall exhibit at the Artenu-sia School Fair on Thursday last was very extensive and the tables were well filled with flowers, vegetables, collec- tions, manual work, etc. Some of the sections were well filled, as -for instance thsre were 43 entries of beets, 67 of Carrots, 34 of potatoes and in other classes there were two dozen entries, making the task of the judges extremely difficult. Mr. T. T. S. Cooper, County Representative, stated that the Artemesia school fair vas the largest and best held up to that time. Ceylon school won the prize for the school parade, with five other schools in competition.
