It has been found by an investigating committee that garbage was being dumped in nearly a score of places in the town, other than the authorized dumping grounds. It was estiâ€" mated that a collection system could be operâ€" ated for about $3.00 per house per year and it is proposed to put the system into effect by the new The council also passed a public health byâ€"| law at the request of the Medical Officer of Health, subject to the approval of the provinâ€" cial department of public health. The byâ€"law, among other things, requires the inspection of dairies and the provision of pure drinking water and contains clauses against the sale of conâ€" taminated food. It is also provided that all resâ€" taurants and eating houses provide wash rooms and toilets for the accommodation of the pubâ€" lic. Plumbing and drainage is to be inspected while the reporting and controlling of comâ€" municable diseases is also provided for under the new byâ€"law. â€" The action of the Council and the Board of Health of the town of Preston indicates apâ€" preciation of the vital importance of safeâ€" guarding the public health by the maintenance of healthful conditions in the community.

H.â€"Price, Attorney General of Onâ€" tario, is being commended for ~his vigorous campaign against fraudulent brokerage and bucketâ€"shop gambling. It is an unfortunate fact that those who are persuaded to invest their funds in wildâ€"cat schemes are, for the most part, comparatively poor people. As a reâ€" sult their savings of a lifeâ€"time have disappearâ€" ed. Recently there has been anâ€"invasion of Canada by unscrupulous promoters from across the line where in various states the authorities have been making it too uncomfortable for them. The Attorneyâ€"General will have the endorsation of citizens generally in proceeding vigorously against those who seek to profit at the expense of the public. | SEEK TO PROFIT AT PUBLIC EXPENSE | [ F Addressing the members of the Women‘s Canadian Club at Galt the other day, Hon. W. Finlayson, Minister of Lands and Forests for Ontario, said that the lumbering industry in Ontariy in years gone by, worked on the prinâ€" ciple that the timber resources of the province were inexhaustible. Extravagance in use was followed by carelessness in handling and vast areas were destroyed by fire. It not only deâ€" stroyed the standing timber but also thwarted the efforts of nature in effecting natural proâ€" duction, fire destroying the seed. Toâ€"day, howâ€" ever, there is a growing appreciation of the importance of the conservation of our forest wealth, while the reforestration policy of the government encourages the setting out of areas on farms which cannot be used for agricultpral | CONSERVING OUR TIMBER WEALTH purposes, with trees which are supplied by the government at the rate of 3,500 a year.

No registration can be issued by the registrar unless the applicaâ€" tion for registration is accompanied by a certiâ€" ficate. This certificate is defined in the law as a certificate of an insurance company authorâ€" ized to transact automobile public liability inâ€" surance in the state, stating that it has issued to the applicant for registration of a motor: vehicle or trailer a motor vehicle liability policy which covers such metor vehicle or trailer as provided by law, and runs for a period at least coâ€"terminous with that of the registration applied for or has issued a binder pending the issue of such policy, or the said application must be accompanied by a certificate of a surety company to the effett that it has issued a bond or binder covering the same requirements of the law, or it must be accompanied by a certifiâ€" cate of the division of highways stating that cash or security has been deposited with that ‘division as required by law.

The disâ€" position in Ontario has been to wait and obâ€" serve the effectiveness of the law in that state. It would not be surprising to see a similar law enacted here: Cases have arisen from time to time which have led to a discussion of the best means of protecting the public who through no fault of their own are killed or injured and canâ€" not collect damages owing to the inability of the defendants to pay.

Trelle is still deve} oping it on his farm near Wembley, Alta. ‘The wheat king has at last reâ€" vealed the history and hopes of his new "mystery wheat" which, it is claimed, equals the best wheat now known and hag the great advantage of ripening some 15 to 13 days earlier. On the farm of the wheat wizard | standsâ€"~one plot of the "nrnt.oryl wheat" which," although it looks dead ripe and ready to be cut, had been left standing. From this plot, ‘Trelle hopes to develop a wheat that will harden in the.straw and reduce its moisturé content sufâ€" ficiently to permit of first class marâ€" keting. This grain ripens early and thereby almost eliminates the danâ€" gor from frost that would seriously damage ‘Marquis just before it is ready to cut. Some heads of the "mystery wheat" on being examined, were found dead ripe, untouched by recent frosts and a light snow, and so hard that when bitten the kernels literally snapped. The straw was as stiff as bristle and stood erect up to the drooping head. ‘‘Trelle intends to leave the wheat stand to see if it will combat the heavy frosts and snow.
