Legard-ha.s received a letter from his brother, Ed., at Glenside, Sask, which paints a very dark picture of conditions as they exist there this year. We are privileged to glean from it the following: We are having hard times. You see, in 1930 we were completely hailed out, in 1931 and 1932 very poor prices, and in 1933 lost our whole crop with rrasshoppers. There is nothing but Russian thistle. We have to buy all our feed and seed. The Government is helping a little, but very little. The municipality is doing its best. The L^levators are loaded to capacity, and dozens of horses are dying â€" starving to death. We haven't lost any yet, but we took 12 head of horses 125 miles to a big pasture, 6 miles square. It took 4 days to go, as the horses had to pick their living as they went. There were 61 in our bunch, 1000 in the pasture all told. It snowed about two feet deep up there, then thawed then froze and formed a glare of ice all over the pasture, and they could get nothing to eat, so we had to go again and take them 25 miles furthei north and put them out with farmers to feed for the winter. We just got word they will have to give them cats and one dollar per head per month more, as they are not doing well. One of our nearest neighbors has lost 4 and 3 more are up in slings; another, a twelve-year-old mare, a good one, got so weak he had to kill her. Another man lost 7, another 11, another neighbor lost one horse and two dandy Belgrian colts, the best colts I have seen for a long time; nearly every farmer has lost 2, 3, artd 4. It is alarming, and all this cheap grain in the elevators, especially wheat. Our Provincial Government is doing all it can, but the Dominion Govei-nment can look out at next election unless the two old parties join hands against the C.C.F., as they did in Calgary and McKenzie, the C.C.F. will floor them like rats. . We are all sick and tired of those two old parties. I might say one old party, for they are as one. There were a few cars of vegetables sent here; we got 2 citrons, two small pumpkins, 6 carrots, two cabbages 1 turnip. So you see a car for two tow^ns did not go very far, but we were glad to get even that much. We have plenty of potatoes, but most people haven't any. Our Frank has not one. he has five of a family, 3 boys and 2 girls, and is nearly grey now. My hair is white. We went to a Christmas school concert and put our poneys in the feed room as there wasn't any room, anywhere else. We did not know there was a well in there and when the boys went to get them, the best one, a I'eal nice little mare about 1100 pounds, was in a 16-foot well and 4 feet of water. It was a bitter cold night and she was dead when we got her out. She was as pretty as a picture and as round as a barrel. She was good to ride, drive or work, and we sure miss her. We have one driver and work team and 3 colts at home, 16 head of cattle. 9 sheep, 2 sows and a Tamsworth boar which stands three and a half feet high. It sure takes a lot to feed all this stuff. We buy pressed wheat straw at $4.00 per ton. oats 36c bushel and wheat 6Cc bushel. It is like throwing mon- ey in a well. We have had very cold weather in December, as low as 42 below, but January is warm, thawing the last week, sloughs full of water. The snow is in drifts, neither sleighing nor wagoning. Edgar has ju-st gone with the wagon for another load of pressed wheat straw. We used to think wheat straw was no good to feed, now we are glad to get it. There is not a stack of any descriiition in the coun- try. We used to l.vve four or five left after burning a lot. I think if times get better we will pull out and pei-haps go back to On- tario some place for the rest of oui days. This is a young man's coun- try not for the aged. There is some- thing about this country that draws I think it is the hustle and bustle In Ontario there seems to be always time for leisure. I would see them hanging around tovm talking aniv lounging around; here it is up and go, not so this year, though as there is very little to do. but when we haii four or five thousand bushels of wheat to get out, 6 or 7 miles from town it was "get there." HOCKEY FLESHERTON PUBLIC SCHOOL DEFEATS VANDEL^UR LADS Vandeleur public school hackey team made a good showing of themselves: in Flesherton on Saturday afternoon but due to lack of experience, as this is their first year in the game, lost out to the local public school 7-4. Van- deleur residents have erected a fine open-air rink and some good hockey players are expected in the future The lads on Saturday afternoon lack- ed ability to "lift" the puck, which was partially due to the heavy ice, and this was the main cause of them losing the game. In the first period Flesherton scor- 3(1 four goals with Vandeleur failing to beat .Archibald. Banks scored two with Leave! and Henry each getting one. In the second period Leavell made two nice lone rushes and near the last of the period Henrv hatted in another to put the scora '-"- . .1. Fitz- Simmons talljying fbr the visitors. Ben Leavell was the star of the game with the next honors being divided between Tom Banks and Bill Henry In the future these boys will likely make the grade to the town team it they keep U'p their good work. H Fitzsimmons showed up the best foi the visitors. In the third period Flesherton fad- ad and the visitors counted thret gvals, H. Fitzsimmons, Bowles and Tfeylor each counting one. making the final score 7-4.

ONE MAN TOWN The doctor has closed up the clinic and Williamsburg has suffered as a result. Where cafes and restaurants appeared on every corner, only one remains open, the others digging in for the winter with shades drawn. Hotels remain open only to keep the fires up. Stores are supplying only the natives; the popular shoe storfe is open, but bare of customers; not even the street corners sport any activity, the streets being almost de- serted. Dr. Locke is taking a month's holidays. â€" Brockville Recorder. •Ne^*******^:-:-^:"^:":":- •<~I"^<~l~x~^♦>♦^•^•^•I">•^•^•>•^•>^^•^<>•>•>•>•^•^^^* A COMPLETE STOCK OF MEN'S Overalls, Pants and Workshirts I f Remember we sell Turpentine, Raw Oil, Machine Oil I and British American Coal Oil.

NORTH END DEFEATS SOUTH END 7-6 Last Wednesday night a wide open, breath taking, hockey game was played in the local arena, 'the north end and the south end of Flesherton being the contestants, and resulted ir the former's victory. There wert many hard body checks handed out and sticks were carried high with the result that many arguments arose. In the second period the boys were beginning to get hot under the collars and the fists were almost beginning to fly when Referee Boyd cooled things down a bit by giving two play- ers a trip to the cooler for three minutes. After this things ran much smoother and the lads got off some neat combination plays.. The north end had the advantage over their opponents by having five of the senior team on their side, while the south end team had only two, the rest being juniors. It is hoped that another game will take place between these teams, as good hockey is displayed, along with many breath-taking clashes. The following is the line up: North End â€" Goal. M. Sled; de- fence, E. Johnson, McCutcheon; centre, B. Patton; wings. Sled, Cairns; .^ubs., McKillop, F. Patton. South End â€" Goal, Ferris; defence .\kitt, Gibson; centre. Best; wings. Phillips, Dargavel; subs., Welton, Smith, Stuart.
