Editor Aasoc Editor EDITORIAL NOTES The Canadian National Exhibition cloiied on Saturday with a reduction in attendance from lust year. Thi. ehow was the best in history, having special attractions enjoyed by no otl-^r fair in the world . The educational features of the fair were equal ti those of former years. * * • In another column we print some helpful instructions to exhibitors oi vegetables that should be useful in selecting exhibits for the fall fair.s which commence soon. These instruc- tions were supplied by the Depart- ment of Agriculture to aid in the im- provtmcnt of voKetable exhibits. * * * Owing to the drought and grass- hopper scourge in the AVest, Canada's production of wheat will be the low- est yield since 1924. All grain pro- duction is below the average, but in thi.« district the quality is of the high- est, according to those who have al- ready threshed. • * • • There is liltcly to be a loosening ot beer regulations in Ontario. If this is done the government will be leav- ing the narrow road of government control, to where the liquor and beei forces will be controlling it. The lure of more money from a larget .-iale of beer is a golden bauble dangl- ir^- before the government. • • • Shudders attacked the spinal verte- brae of our older citizens on Tuesday mornini; v.hen they wakened up to find a heavy frost on vegetation and roofs of buildings. This v.as our first taste of what is in store for us very shortly. Last week we v^ere treated to temperatures of 85 to 'JO; Tue.V,ay night it was below the freezing point, when ice was formed on vessels standing out of doors. * • * Objection to sponsoring and I'.d- vc-rtising of bond issues by Canadian chartered banks was voiced by mem- bers of the Canadian Investment Bankers' Association appearing be- fore the Macmillan commission on banking at Toronto. Claim is madi. that the banks should handle only gilt-edged securities, such as Domin- ion, Provincial or municipal bonds and give longer term notes to far- mers. * * * Agitation is still continuing to have a thorough investigation into the man- agement of affairs in Kingston Pen- itentiary. The letters of Dr. 0. J. C. Withrow in the Toronto uiobe have opened the eyes of the people of On- tario to inhuman treatment accorded to prisoneis and the appaling con- ditions in effect at that in.«titution. while men have sinned against the laws of God and man,â€" that is why they are there â€" it should not bt that they w-ould be used worse than beasts when incarcerated. Flesherton Now Meets Kimberley In Ball Finals DKFKATKI) DINDALK IN TWO STRAIGHT GAMES 18-8 AND 10-6! FIRST GA.MK WITH KI.MBKRLEY ON FRIDAY FOR CENTRE LEA(;i E TITLE; FLESHETON TEAM IMPROVED. AriER LOSING FIRST FOUR GAMES A .Western couple were wed in the air. His wife plan.< to keep hot husband there. Flesherton baseball team eliminat- ed Dundalk in the second straight game 10-C this Tuesday afternoon and have qualified to meet Kimberley this Friday afternoon in the valley village. The reversal in form ol the local team has been marvelouj as they lost the first four games they played this year and have won th( last six, the last two from Dundalk in the play-offs after losing both tc them in the regular schedule. Bol Phillips pitched a fine game and had errorless ball played behind him- He retired in the eighth inning in favoj of Darragh in order to save his wing for F'riday's rodeo with Kimberley. Th^ Dundalk team is composed mostly of old players, who have seen better days, only two or three ol them being under 'M years of age. and youth must be served. Cecil McTavish is the only player on the Flesherton team with experience in former campaigns, the other lads have come along this summer and how they have come! When they meet, Kimberley will be lucky to get away with their shoes on if the boyt play the same kind of ball as they played Tuesday. Bett.!. Beaid came out of his slump with a vengeance in this game securing th: ee hits at four times at bat. His work behind the bat was also real good. Previous to the start of the game Dundalk lodged a protest on the playing of Darragh, claiming he was not eligible, but as many of the play- ers wished E'lesherton success in the finals with Kimberley, it is not thought that the protest will be fol- lowed up. Following is the l)ox score: Dundalk AB R H O A E Claridge, 1st b .... 5 1 1 C 1 McAlister, s.s 5 2 111 C. Thor^pson rf.. 502 100 Douglas, c f 5 12 10 Montgomery, c .... 5 119 4 1 M.

He held the score down with two on bases and the next two batt- ers grounded for easy outs. Doug- las secured the lone hit in the ninth. Ken Bett'j hit a home run into right field in the fourth bringing Btaro in ahead of him. Flesherton's big inning came in the third when six runs were counted Beard hit a single, Wauchope singled, Betts singled scoring Beard, Huctwith out at first, Wauchope and Betts scored on crrorj at third base, Mc- Tavish walked, Darragh walked, i-'hillips hit for three bases, scoring McTavish and Darragh, Sled hit fly to left field for an out, Phillips scor- ing, Dargavel fanned for the third out. Mel. Thompson was taken out of the box when Betts hit hi.; home run in the fourth and Flesherton only got two runs from Mountain in the next four and two thirds innings, those being counted by Phillips and Huctwith. To show that Flesherton made their hits count can be seen by the fact that Dundalk left nine men stranded on the paths and only three •jf the Flesherton team were left on. Phillips had one strike-out, Thonip- â- ;on throe and Mountain five. In the first inning Dundalk had the bases loaded and none out v.'ien Dougla.^ flied to left field, Claridge scoring after the catch, Montgomery was out Darragh to Betts and M. Thompson made the third out McTavish to Betts. The next time Phillips was in trouble was in the eighth inning when three runs scored before Darragh relieved him with one down. Lock- hart then walked leaving two on Ixises, Claridge out /McTavish to Betts and McAlister out Darragh to Fencing Time This is the right time to build your wire fence.

The game was a parade of base hits, Dundalk collecting twenty off Phillips anc. Flesherton nineteen from Douglas and Lockhart, but Flesherton had the better defensive play, which won the game 18-8. Phillips had a bad time in the second inning when Dun- dalk collected four runs, but after that bore down in the pinches and only allowed four runs in the next six frames. He had excellent sup- port from his team mates and he also turned in some nice fielding, one catch especially being above the average, when he caught a hard drive from iM'el Thompson's bat with two on and two out. On two occasions with the bases loaded and one down Phillips retired the side without a score being made. It is interesting to note that in the three games be- tween these two clubs the score in each ha;; been the same, 18-8, bul Dundalk won the other two.

The threshers' expenses are so high and the price of threshing has dropped considerably, and some of the cus- tomers want it for still lower. "We have no organization of thresh, ermen around here, but we do have price cutters and all of the dirt which goes with them. Much as I value my customers very few have any sympathy for me in the bad years. They are aUvays wanting cuts in prices. They argue that in the 'bad years they cannot afford to pay the regular price, and in the good years the increase in volume of business should warrant a decrease in the price. If they drop any lower I am quitting."
