EE Agricultural Fairs Annual Convention Reported by R. D. Woon -The Annual Convention of the On- tario Association of Agricultural So- cieties was held in the King Edward Hotel, Toronto, Feb. 13-14, The President, Mr. Wilfred Walker, pre- siding, The President's Address. Agriculture is vital to a nation's, welfare in peace time. In war time it is the very life blood of our fight for freedom. We cannot, and dare not neglect our duties if we are to gain that freedom. We represent 307 active societies, ~~ Think of what we could accomplish if each did all that was possible. Let us be ready to do our task whether it be great or small, do it well. J. A.

Revise your Prize Lists; cut out the expensive made cakes, pies, ete, and substitute the cheaper made, wholesome foods. Do the same in the clothing exhibits, such as embroidered tea towels, ete. A written report from each judge on his or hér work is of much benefit to all concerned. P. M. Dewan, Minister of Agriculture. Analyze your past activities and work-out the- best suited. Make the Fair Grounds attractive. Encourage home beautification. The good Highways will either draw the crowds to your fair--or away. See that you make use of them. Britain needs beef, bacon, cheese. Keep up the quality and there will al- ways be a market. Better pasture is needed. More alfalfa and clover crops. Use fertilizer. Crop improvement is very necessary. Dr. J. E. For each worker engaged. in farm- ing in Canada, there is 77 acres of im- proved land; U.S.A. 50 acres; Britain 30 acres, Denmark 15 and Italy 5.2. The farmers will be most effected by after war period. We must prepare now for that time. B= Lattimer. Col, George Drew. We should be conscious of what is going on and be ready to do our part, Let us not forget what the people of England are doing. Could we stand up to it if we were in their place?

SPAT 22 the beginning of a home-and-home series, with goals to count, The de- ciding game will be played this com- ing Saturday morning at Lindsay: Both teams were in excellent form and they put up a magnificent fight, producing a game of hockey which was well worth seeing. Their com- bination plays and fast breaking spurts simply amazed the onlooking rooters, Wilson for Port Perry, as- sisted by Healey, managed to get the first counter, but it was not 'long unitl Terry Junkin broke into the open and flipped one by: Taylor, tieing up the score 1-1. This evened things up, and, rush after rush was organized by both sides only to be broken up before they could reach the op- posing goal. Finally, nearing the end of the period, Carnegie broke loose, passed the puck over to Healey who quickly picked up the pass and whip- ped the puck into the Lindsay net. Port were again in the lead 2-1, 2nd Period--"* ti After their well carned rest, both teams came back on the ice as strong as ever. Shot after shot was pounded at the Port goal, but Taylor gracious- ly picked them off right and left. Lindsay just couldn't get -it by him. In this period Johnson was dished out the first penalty of the game and again Port battled hard and finally bettered their leall by another goal. Green and Brigden also received penalties for Lindsay this period. The score was now 3-1 in favour of Port. Third Period-- From the beginning of this period Lindsay tried 'their best to overtake the 2 goal lead but it looked like a Port victory. Just then when things were going so smoothly, Junkin broke loosé and chalked up 2 counters for Lindsay in a matter of seconds. This tied the score 3-3. Neither team were able to break this tie so when the game starts next Saturday both teams will be on an even basis.

Ld CAS Myrtle Station Pan Cakes and syrup enticed a fair number on Thursday night to the sup- per in the church basement but not as many as was expected, The pan cakes were of the usual high grade of - de- liciousness, but several of those who really can demonstrate how pan cakes should be eaten in quantity were con- spicuous by their absence, #nd the cooks were able to keep, as it were, one jump ahead of the tonsumers. However, it was noticed that some others are in a fair way to become close contestants of the above /men- tioned absentees, and pi pan cake supper is held it may be cooks. The program which followed opened with community singing. Mr. Prentice and Mrs. A, Walker, Whitby, assisted with the entertainment.
