WHEN TO APPLY LIME A test of the soil should be made to make sure that it requires lime. II the soil proves to be acid then the answer to the question when to applj lime might be "when you have time.' Lime is for the benefit of all crops in rotation, but particularly of benefit to legumes. The best time is possibly prize to P. J.

Radley On Friday James Earnest Radley of Osprey Township passed away at the home- stead, Collingwood Gravel Road, on Tuesday of last week, May 3rd, after having been Buffering 1 from heart trouble all his life.

Mr. Stewart Thihaudeau, principal of the Flfsherton High School, pre- sided as chairman, and in his address stated that every pupil in the Flesh- erton school was given a chance in public speaking with class-room in- struction and with school contests Tie also stated that Miss Macphail's idea in sponsoring the contests wat to bring out self expression in the student with essays and public speaking. Mr. Hamilton of Hanovei High School also gave a brief ad- dres? on the work that Miss Macphail was doing for the riding. students of hei and satisfactory practice. Lime is not a fertilizer, but simply neutral- izes the acidity of the soil, and should be thoroughly worked into the soil during the preparation of the seed bed to become efficient. It is pool business to farm land that is lacking in lime and strongly acid in reaction. The productive power of the soil is reduced when it becomes acid. Cor- recting this condition with the use of ground limestone increases the effi- ciency of the manures and fertilizer.' applied, and therefore contributes tc the cutting down of costs of croj. j production. THE GREAT CANADIAN VALUE THESE REASONS }' make it wiser than ever TO CHOOSE THIS SIX TODAY! Chevrolet pioneered the six-cylinder engine in the low priced field because 4 this is the one type of power plant that strikes a perfect balance of smooth perjo, tnanct and maximum economy. It is necessary to have six cylinders to get multi-cylinder smoothnc'ss. Drivers of sixes never want less; and anything more than six cylinders means a sacrifice of economy! The Chevrolet Six costs less to operate than any other full-size car. Naturally, more than six cylinders would mean greater expense for gasoline, oil and upkeep. * The 1932 Chevrolet Six is a proved car. It repre- sents the fullest development of the basic multi- lylinder principle which lus resulted in highest satis- faction to more than 2,000,000 Chevrolet Six owners. * The Chevrolet Six is the lowc-.t priced car com- bining Silent Syncro-Mesh shift and I'rce Wheeling. 5 Ilodics by I'isher are exclusive on Chevrolet i:i the lowest price field.

NEW CHEVROLET SIX i r He was married to Miss Elizabeth Coutts, 38 years ago, who along with 10 children, survive.

Yearly, (Sadie) Toronto; Mrs. Oman Bowes (Ann) Concord; Mrs. Cyril Brillinger (Mild- red) Richmond Hill; Mrs. Wm. Mc- Donald (Nellie) Toronto; Mrs. Chas. Fisher (Ida) of Toronto. The eldest daughter, Myrtle, died on March 17, 1917. The late Mr. Radley spent most of his life here, farming the homestead, which his father had cleared out of the 'solid bush at the fcime Grey County was opened up. Owing to poor health he kept a hotel at Ceylon for five years and also spent five years in York County, returning to his farm near Maxwell in 1925. He chen received an appointment of Road Superintendent of Osprey township. He was an affectionate husband and father, a kind neighbor with a genial disposition and his home registered hospitality for all.. Now death has ended that fine virtue, but the mem- ory of association will long continue He was a member of I.O.F. and Orange Lodges and an adherent of the United church. His father helped build the ffTst Maxwell Primitive Methodist church. The funeral was held on Friday afternoon and hi* pastor, Rev. Pope. preached a comforting message at the service held in the Maxwell Unit- ...1 Church, from Luke 11:9 "Ask and it shall be given you." The church was filled with sympathetic friends. who came to pay their respect to the memory of one who held the esteem :\nd regard of the community. Inter- uent took place in the Maxwell Unit- (1 Cemetery, with the T.O.F. lodges from Fleshcrton and Maxwell offic- iating at the grave. The floral tributes consisted of pillow from the family; spray, grand- biUlren; wreaths, Foresters, T. Bern- rose, Willard Coutts, Jacob Corbett \ndifw Pallister, Ella Robinson, C Rolls and Austin Brillintrer. The pallbearers were .lack Magee John fcnwick, Chas. Hewn. Chas Hi-'ilU', Oo. Ross, Levi Pnllister. The sympathy of the community is extended to the wife and family in their sorrow. Still, .still with Thee, when purple morning breaketh, When the bird wak'pth and the shadows flee; Fairer than morning, lovelier than daylight, Dawns the sweet consciousness, 1 nm with Thee! These are trying times for the small town weekly and many of them are finding it dificult to keep going. The editor and publisher of the Deseronto Post has just announced the sale of the plant and the suspension of the publication of the newspaper. Mr Harry Moore, who bought the Post about a dozen years ago, is one ol the best news and short story writers in Ontario and besides is a first-class printer. Deseronto is a town of near- ly 2000 population. The Post was the only printing and newspaper of- fice there. ALMOST HIT BY MKTKOR PRODUC1.D IN CANADA CII-M D. McTavish & Son FLESHERTON, Ont. In the Harriston Review office win- dow may he seen the remains of a small meteor which hit the cement roadway just north of town one even- ing about a month ago, says that paper. Charlie Manser of Harriston wan walking towards town that ovon- inir when he saw a litrht nnd hoard n hissing noise . Looking up he was surprised to soe a burning meteoi with n tnil about four or five feet Ions of fire and sparks, pass over his head. It hit the cement n short distance past him and the molten mass flattened out like sheets of thin paper. He went to gather these U|> but found them too hot, so waited until they roolod off sufficiently. He then gathered them in his hand and in ord- "r to carry them move conveniently, t-o crushed them between his hands. When he got home, they were cemont- "d together hut ho and his fatlu-r worked thorn apart somewhat in order to sec bettor what the strange sul>- stnn.-e was like. It looks like a big wedire of tinfoil and is alxnit the same weight nnd qnito shiny. As n ruli these meteors explode before reaching the earth or sink into the ground nnd become a hard mass thnt it is impossible to cut them with n hnck FIUV or even drill them, so this one is much out of the ordinary. Flving has been resumed nt Camp Rorden, the usual complement of men heinfr stationed there and the people who live in proximity to the Camp have conr-lu-ded that in this ramp is to le rrn< 4 entrate<! tho entire aviation force of the country.
