Systematic thrift is undoubtedly a virtue, and if instilled in a child, should pay dividends in later years. And the children should be given every encouragement by teachers and parents In several Ontario towns the Boards of Education are considering discontinuing the Penny Bank, because it is felt the institution is not of sufficient importance to justify the cost of supplies. Nonâ€"swimmers are warned never to venâ€" ture into deep water, and swimmers should beâ€" ware of water holes and undertows. Those who like boating are also warned to be ever careful of changing winds, and above all, to learn how to properly manage a canoe. to participate. Some people are apt to regard motor acciâ€" dents as the cause of most of the deaths, but while the automobile continues to lead the list of fatal accidents, it must be borne in mind that drownings are limited almost to four months in the year. There are figures to show that the swimmer, the nonâ€"swimmer and the boater are exposed to greater danger than the motorist, when one considers that there are thousands more people riding in cars during a whole year than there are people on or in the water. Acâ€" cording to figures issued by the Ontario Safety‘ League, of a total of 512 fatal accidents i"i Ontario in 1934, swimming, boating and diving fatalities numbered 298. ‘ With warm weather here but a short time, many drowning accidents have been reported at various points in Ontario. It is therefore timely to warn bathers and boaters once again of the danger of drowning. As regards the question of pasteurization of milk, arguments for and against, some of which had merit, were given by the supporters and opponents. Now that the byâ€"law has been passed the dairy farmers will no doubt coâ€" operate with the Board of Health in giving the consumers of milk, cream and butter, the best product possible, produced under the most saniâ€" tary conditions. Mayor H. E. Ratz, in supporting the byâ€" law, agreed with Dr. Wm. Geiger, chairman of the Board of Health, that the new regulations calling for more sanitary dairy farms, periodical inspection of herds, and more care in handling of milk, would not create undue hardships for the farmer, Dr. Wm. Geiger voiced his approval of the manner in which the council had disâ€" cussed the byâ€"law pro and con and assured those members at first opposed to some clauses that their fears would be groundless and nothing but‘ good would result. ‘ The Waterloo milk byâ€"law, which caused considerable heated discussions in the last two council meetings, was finally passed after being given its third reading on Tuesday night. Former Mayor W. W. Frickey led the fight for the farmers opposed to the byâ€"law, declaring it was unfair to the small dairy farmer and playâ€" ed into the hands of the large creamery conâ€" cerns. At the final reading, Mr. Frickey, after being assured that the health authorities would deal fairly with the farmers in enforcing the byâ€"law, voted in favor, thus making it unaniâ€" mous. | President Wm. Uffelman and the executive members of the Board of Trade, at a recent meeting, heartily endorsed the campaign. This body which has as one of its duties the creating of better business and social relationships beâ€" tween town and country, Joins with the merâ€" chants in extending a cordial invitation to the people outside the town to pay Waterloo a visit, do their shopping here and get acquainted with the business men. Waterloo has attractive places of business, with upâ€"toâ€"date store fronts and an excellent assortment of merchandise at the lowest possible prices. Thousands of shoppers will visit Waterloo during the Comâ€" munity Weeks and with the coâ€"operation of all, the event should be a real successâ€"the merâ€" chants will be satisfied and the public made‘ happy. Saturday, June 8th, to Saturday, July 18th, are the five weeks chosen for the Waterloo Community Campaign. The merchants have been planning this event for some time. They have gone to considerable expense in adverâ€" tising and the offering of prizes to induce the people of the surrounding country to visit and shop in Waterlooâ€"‘"The Best Town in Canada".

The premier and his wife are to be congratulated on the lead they have given the province in this worthwhile work. & e | Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn of Ontario has thousands of admirers throughout the province, and he also has thousands who fail to see eye to eye with him in anything he does. Whether admirer, supporter, or absolutely opâ€" posed, every citizen should give the Premier credit for the able manner in which he has led the province in the Adoptâ€"Aâ€"Baby Week by himâ€" self adopting a boy and girl into his own home.{ Wilfred S. Haney, exâ€"crown attorney of Lambton, recently dismissed by the Hepburn Government, has announced that he would be a candidate in the forthcoming Federal election to oppose Ross W. Gray, Liberal sitting memâ€" ber. When men cease to be faithful to their God, he who expects to find them so to each other will be much disappointed.â€"Bishop Horne. it is to provide fun and pleasure, particularly for children. j Oh? We wonder what Peter will say when he discovers that his fond father stands for the enforcement of an amusement tax that threatâ€" ens to exterminate companies whose business Peter Hepburn, the premier‘s newlyâ€" adopted son, is only two years old, yet the Toronto Globe has gazed into the mystic crystal and sees him growing up to be a staunch Liberal â€""because he has a mind of his own." ‘ Surely the time has not arrived that when a man dies and his pockets are empty his body must go to the medical schools to be disâ€" sected. The new act is not likely to go into effect because public opinion is strongly against it. People in Quebec have every reason to proâ€" test against the new act passed by the Quebec Legislature providing that the bodies of indiâ€" gent patients shall be available to the hospitals for the purpose of dissection in the interests of science. \ Credit is something that no individual or nation can afford to have injured. It is teamâ€" mate to honesty and reputation for fair dealing. Canada‘s credit in England has been damaged. That may be regarded as the most serious thing that has ever happened in the financial history of this province. The Timesâ€"Review of Fort Erie, Ontario, makes the following comment: This statement of the Times may be reâ€" garded as expressing an English opinion of Canada‘s credit that is not at all complimentary. And the Times points out also that Canada‘s high credit to a large extent has been due to a low rate of money current almost everywhere, owing to depression in international finance and trade, "and not to the intangible quality that goes to the making of credit." ". .. . Certain events in the Dominion in the past few months have administered someâ€" thing of a shock to investors and others. The financial embarrassment of a number of municiâ€" palities and provinces, the mismanagement of the finances of Montreal . . .. and last but not least, the action of the Ontario Government in passing legislation repudiating the contracts of the state Hydroâ€"Electric Commission, have dealt a blow to Canadian credit." Judging by the following editorial comment of the London Times (England), some investors do not approve, the action of the Ontario Government. It says: There has been much discussion in the public press as to whether the Ontario Governâ€" ment was wise in repudiating Hydro power conâ€" tracts with Quebec, thus affecting the public credit of Canada. The status of the compulsory pasteurizaâ€" tion question in Simcoe remains more or less indefinite as a result of developments at the last two Town Council meetings. There is a resoâ€" lution now on council‘s minutes calling for a plebiscite on the issue at the next municipal election. While The Reformer believes that the duty of making a decision on the subject rests properly with the Town Council, acting in conâ€" junction with the Board of Health, nevertheless it is somewhat gratifying to know that action will be taken one way or another before the end of 1935. We have no doubt that a majority of citizens will endorse the proposal to make 100 per cent. pasteurization effective in Simcoe. Under present conditions, including the lack of, supervision of herds supplying milk for local consumption, the health of a percentage of chilâ€" dren and adults in the town is being endangered by the use of raw milk, | In view of the lively discussion in Waterloo on the question of compuilsory pasteurization of milk, the following editorial by the Simcoe Reformer will be of interest to readers: [I MILK PASTEURIZATION INDIGENT HOSPITAL PATIENTS ANOTHER YOUNG LIBERAL EDITORIAL NOTES CANADA‘S CREDIT THE WATERLOO CHRONICLE Our libraries have too much dead wood, books we do not care to read. lacking in beauty but occupying valuâ€" Able space.

St. Thomas. â€"The employres of the Canadian Canners plant at Aylimer near here on May 30th received one of the unpleasantest sutprises when their pet black squirrel, which they were accustomed to feed tidbits to daily, suddenly went berserk in the office And after running up several persons its started to knaw the hand and wrist of John Winder. Shortly afterwards it bit two more persons. Coroner Sinclair ordered the animal to be destroyed after he had dressed the wounds of the bitten persons. Excess Baggage:â€" SQUIRREL GOES MAD, ATTACKING 3 PERSONS The question is, of course, easily answered. Any farmer desiring to take on additional help may apply to his township relief officer, who will then direct him to some suitable person who. is on relief. Upon offerâ€" ing the relief recipient employment and having such an offer refusedâ€" providing the terms of employment may be considered reasonable, the farmer should notify the relief officer who may then strike off the offender‘s name from the list of relief recipients. 0 Linwood, May 31, 1935 ‘"The Minister of Public Welfare has appealed to the farmers of Ontario to employ those on relief," continues "Taxpayer‘" in his letter of last week, "but how can the farmer employ the unemployed in their own township if he does not know who they are?" __ It is the duty of the Relief Officer in each district to cuefull{ investiâ€" gate every family on relief, and that there are certain persons who will take advantage of the "dole" in order to live at leisure, is proven by the fact that arrests have been made in a few cases for this offense. Such ‘shirkers are, however, distinctâ€" ly in the minority, and it would seem the fairer course to leave such investigation to the proper officials, and to refrain from publishing the names of all those on relief. T en en e an o n ce t be those on the relief lists "who believe that the world owes them a living", and that more ambitious persons are being burdened with the expense of providing for such unâ€" known laggards.

In the past five years Canada‘s poâ€" sition in regard to timothy seed supâ€" ply has been changed from that of a heavy importer to that of a large producer, with production, in 1934, amounting to almost enough for Canâ€" adian needs. This is particularly forâ€" tunate at the present time when there are only small supplies availâ€" able for importation from other counâ€" tries, owing to their greatly reduced production as a result of drought in 1934. An excellent program of demonâ€" strations is being arranged for the ladies, and there will be interesting exhibits in other departments of the College, relating to plant diseases, insect and weed pests, fertilizers, farm machinery, honey and dairy products, etc. ’l-‘.rm and. Home Week at the Ontario Agricultural College ‘ Information, Inspiration and Recreâ€" ation will feature the Farm and Home Week program at the O.A., June 17th to 21st, and the many thousands of farm folks who vist the College at that time will be sure to find the usual hearty welcome.

The rooms are comfortable, the meals good and the cost very low.

Provision will be made for playing softball and horseshoes late in the afternoons, and there will be evenâ€" ing entertainments of music and draâ€" matics. Weeders Possibly one of the most satisfacâ€" tory implementg for the control of weeds in a growing grain crop is what is known as the finger weeder. This implement consists of a series of long slender teeth which form a very light harrow. ‘The fAngerweeder may be used l0 advaplage on anpual weeds, shortly after germination, both before and after the grain crop has emerged and until the crop is some two to four inches high. Early Sweet Corn Early eweet corn brings the best price, hence the importance of plantâ€" Ing as soon as possible. Successional sowings made at intervals of ten days in the eame field are a good way to get early corn. Should the first planting succeed the gecond or third plentings may be hoed out, or if the first plantings be killed by frost the third or fourth planting may develop unbampered. KITCHENER â€" ONTARIO News and Information For the Farmer Purnished by the Ontario Department of Agricuiture Timothy Seed Production l "Honey is one of Ontario‘s large cash crope. In 1934 production was approximately 12,000,000 pounds. Of this total roughly 2,250,000 pounds were exported to Great Britain and Holland and another 1,500,000 pounds sold outside Ontario but within Canâ€" ada. The balance, somewhat over 8,000,000 pounds, is consumed within The Kitchener school will again be dirécted by Bishop C. F. Derstine and the teaching staff will also have with them, Miss Iva Leichty, school »secretary, Miss Una Cressman, memory work supervisor; Miss Araâ€" belle Snyder, Miss Lioy Hertzberger, Miss Grace Cressman, Miss Helen Ernst, and Miss Lenora Thoman. An enrolment of over 500 persons is _expected this year. "Some years ago Ontario supplied all Canada with Honey and marketâ€" ing problema were less difficult. Now _ Woestern Canada â€" produces enough for its own needs and is lookâ€" ing for other markets. Orgeanization for export has become eseential. Disâ€" organized and competitive offerings abroad are. fatal to regulated shipâ€" ments or fair prices." ‘Latest overseas bide are reported to be 35s per long hundredweight which, with ‘bare costs off alone and allowing nothing for commissions, means lese than 5c per pound to the producer at shipping station as comâ€" pared with the 8%c and 9¢ obtained two years ago through their own voluntary Export Association." Kitchener.â€"A writ was issued at the court house, Kitchener, last week, against Daniel Hibner, in conâ€" nection with the death of John R. Williams, who was killed in a highâ€" way mishap recently. Mrs. Ada Louise Williams is suing for the sum of $5,000 on behalf of herself and the three surviving children of the deceased. ‘Crops ure easily estimated but are subject to fluctuations as to seasonal conditions.
