"Wednesday, May 21st, 1924 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE MR. AND MRS. A. S. MADILL HONORED ON GOLDEN WEDDING Family And Friends Paid Their Respects On Fifty Years Of Marriage Sauk Star of May 16 Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Stuart Ma- dill, 42 Hawthorne avenue, celebrated their golden weddinj? Wednesday and on this very special occasion a family reunion was held. The relatives pres- ent at the family dinner were Mr. and Mrs. Fred Walton and family, Mr. and Mrs.. A. W. Madill and family, Mr. Sam Madill, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Taylor and family, Mr. and Mrs. ,1. W. Mc- Donad and family, Mrs. Ralph Weeks and son, Emerson, of Mactier, Mr. Basil Carruthers (a grandson), of Eugenia, Mr. and Mrs. Alex. Holley and Mrs. H. J. Weeks. The only members of the family who were un- able to be present were Mrs. A. Car- ruthers of Eugenia, Mr. John Madill of Port Arthur, and Mr. Ben Madill of Glenside, Sask., As a token of re- membrance from their family, a purse •was presented to the hapny couple, and also a framed marriage certificate with th epicture of Mr. and Mrs. Ma- dill taken 50 years ago, and the pic- ture of them taken recently, on either side. The following lett«r accomp- anied the gifts: Dear Father and Mother: We have gathered here today to celebrate with you the 50th anniver- sary of your wedding. It is with re- gret that some members of the family are unable to be present. However, we know their hearts are with us and they join with us when we say: 'There never was better father and mother than ours.' You have fought the fight with the pioneers of this country in hewing out the old homestead and yet you have given to us the education and opportunities such as few families have been able to obtain under those conditions. Your first thought has always been for your children and may God grant that we may be wor- thy of that love and devotion. We beg you to accept this token from us as a mark of remembrance and pray that you may both be spared to enjoy continued good health and prosperity and that we may be able to celebrate more anniversaries of your wedding day. Singned on behalf of the family, EDNA M.

We have every reason to believe that you have lived happily together for the past 50 years, a pleasure very few ever live to accomplish. It is no surprise to us to understand why you have always got along so well, one with the other, knowing you as we do, we realize that with such kind and loving dispositions as fortune has been so knd to bestow upon you both, that you could scarcely have lived other than happy. No doubt you have already receiv- ed many hearty congratulations and we have pleasure in adding the heart- iest congratulations of your friends and neighbors to. those already receiv- ed and would ask you to accept these small gifts as a remembrance of this great occasion and sincerely trust you may both be spared for many years to add to your enviable record.

Until recently the leaf spot of strawberry has been considered to be the most serious leaf disease of the cultlyated strawberry. During the past threS or four years a leaf disease has ^een observed In straw- berry plantations, and which seems to be generally distributed through the southern and eastern parts of the Province. This disease from Its ap- pearance can be appropriately called "leaf scorch." Considering the fun- gus responsible for the disease, it can be designated "mollisiose." Dr. R. E. Stone, of the Department of Botany, Ontario Agricultural College, thus describes the disease and treat- ment: Symptoms of the Disease. In the spring. May and June, the strawberry leaves become covered with small. Irregular, purplish spots. The spots enlarge and ooalesoe until the wiiole leaf may become involved. When the spots have become quite large they turn aahy brown or dirty grev in the center and then small fruiting Bi>eck6 or aoervulae appear. In these acerrulae hyallns, two-celled Bporeg appear. These spores serve to spread the disease to other leaves and plants. lAler, In July and Ati^uat, the ^ntlrS leaves dry up and the dis- eased plants take on a scorched appearance as though burned over with Are. It is not uncommon to' see whole beds present this appearance and it becomes difficult to distinguish the plants suffering from leaf scorch froni those severely Injured by drouth and white grub injury. Vairletles Susceptible to the Disease. Not alj varieties are equally sus- ceptibly to the disease. The most susceptible seems to be Clyde follow- ed by Glen Mary, Havexland, Senator Dunlop, New Williams in the order given here. Control. w Control measures have not been worked out. From field observations the following procedure would seem to be desirable: Clean cultivation. Removal and destruction of all dead leaves In spring. Spraying with Bordeaux mixture. In sotting out raspberries, blacli- berrles, dewberries, and strawberries, young plants which grow the preced- ing season are generally used, except when they are planted In the au- tumn. In that case plants of the current seas on's gr owth^e used. Ontario Variegated and Grlinm Alfalfas. Octarlo Variegated la not a Qrlmm alfalfa. The seed of the former was obtaiued from Lorralhe in 1871 and has been grown In Welland County for the last half century. The Grimm variety was brought from Baden, Germany, by Kulshelm Grimm and was sown in Carver County, Minne- sota, in 1858, where this typo of al- falfa hiis been grown since that time, riotb varietiea liavo variegated flow- era and are slmilafr In somo charac- teriHiic^s.

There was some excitement last Saturday in Orton over a cattle stampede. ' It seems Mr. Peter Mc- Laren was delivering 7 or 8 head of fat cattle to Norman Deering who in- tended to ship them with some others to Toronto, but when the cattle were almost to the yards something fright- ened them and they stampeded. All though quite an army of men tried to round them up they could do nothing with them as they went clean wild and at last report they are still in the swamp. â€" Grand Valley Star.
