neglected chili rescued from unworthy par ents through the different stages of reconstruction and pmceof eventually in a foster home in a great many cases legally adopted is indeed great satisfaction to one engaged m social o work as is well known it is the object of the society to keep ramules to gether ha their own homes if at all possible as after all oils is the na tural environment for any ciuld be a home ever so hunrase if the par ents have the natural love of a par ent for their child and the right sense of duty chat is home and the proper place for the cnlld as a result of my frequent investi gations and visits in various homes throughout the oourrnes of peel and halton i have assisted many fami nes in improving their home condi tions frequently all that is necessary is a visit froin a iwutrn party with helpful advice and a warning during the year it has been neces sary to have four 9mdren made permanent wards of tbe society three of whom nave since been plan ed in

been cared for in the home during the year mng a total of 6387 days shelter provided- v twelve wards nave been placed in foster homes during the year i find it exceedingly difficult to place child ren in free foster homes as the ma jority of applications are for paying boarders ih cases wnore shelters become overcrowded it is frequently necessary to board cnodtren in private homes while awaiting adoption but in our own case so long as there is ample axmamrnodatlon this would not be practicable thirteen wards have been released from the care of the society eight having attained their majority two married two legally adopted and one released by request during the past fall it was my uvewiui to be present at the marri age of one of our former wards it was g lu to note the good will ton want held towards the society who bad been her guardian for a of years variation from this happy event i was summoned to appear at the divorce proceedings of the par ents of one chad who had previously been made a ward due to the im proper behaviour of tbe mother throubh a charge having been laid under see 315 oftbe orlmmal code corrupting enfldrtny- the mother a w of three children was put on and the man involved was given a beavy fine or tbe option of a gaol sen in all fiftyfour cases were bandied to court one of the most interesting phases of the work is visiting wards in fas ter homes in most eases well cared for and contented only in rare cases is it found necessary to remove a child in an one hundred and strteen visits have been made to wards tus nlreelf taung consider able time when you consider that they are sp over two counties adoption act tbe work under the legal adoption act is a most pleasant featpre of the actlvttles of onudvens aid officer to see a twiyli cnlld

recent address by w r reea superintendent of the ontario experimental farm at ridgvtowh in it he favored the rearing rather than the purchase of feeder cattle a type of cow that will make a cream

locality clean seed and thrift the practice of thirft was applied to all farm operations and lothc production in garden and otherwise of many home necessities the automobile was not condemned as a

imported the need of fundamental research in agriculture was discussed by prof w r oraham of oac who show ed now laboratory findings had been translated into farm practice with highly beneficial results at the oa c it was learned that turkeys hatched and brooded in tbe laboratory soon fell victims to disease when fed let tuce with particles of soil adhering but when the lettuce was washed clean there was no illeffects out of- this simple finding grew che practice of feeding young poultry in clean troughs every nignt the final outcome was that poultry have been reared in large numbers

made as tbe result of research conducted by him wbile on leave of absence and taking postgraduate work at cornell university the process is now recognized as being of great value to the honey industry and dr dyce is deserving of cbrnmendatlon for having applied for patents in both tbe united states and canada and for turning these over to cornell university for the united states and to o a c for panada stated briefly the process is one of pasteurizing the honey at tain definite temperature to pre vent fermentation and then cooling it raptdfy to avoid loss of flavor ten per cent of previously processed honey after it la copied this acts as a star ter which promotes rapid granulation so that within a few days at a lower temperature the whole mass takes on a fine smooth uniform semisolid
