WED., MARCH 17th 1926 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE THOUGHTS ON SOLID COMFORT A GOOD THIRD OF OUR TIME IS SPENT IN BED, SO WHY NOT HAVE SOLID COMFORT WHILE THERE? Why use a Mattress and Spring that will not stand up under the wear of years? A good spring costs a little more, but look at the extra comfort you have in being ab^e o sleep while vou are in bed. The very Mattress you need is a WAY SAGLESS SPRING, which will not sag under any conditions and is guaran- teed for 25 years. Surely that ought to be long en- ough. It does not matter if the two persons sleeping on it are of unequal weight, as it adjusts itself. Our regular price on this spring is $10.00; look at page 346 of catalogue and see what it costs to order that way. Now to match this Spring we have different lines of mattresses from $12.00 up we would recommend to go with this spring. We also have a good line of Arm Chairs andf Rockers to sit in comfort in for a couple of hours be- fore going to bed, ranging from $8.00 up. Call and look these lines over. Don't be afraid you will offend us if you do not buy, for we know you cannot beat them anywhere. • Thos. W.

McTavish bulged the twine when he beat White on a wicked drive, but while Markdale were outplayed for the next twenty minutes, the lo- cals could not repeat.

Tiie coll- egiate team were superior in every department of the game, displayed a good brand of hockey to the satis- faction of the large crowd on hand. Markle and Grant of the Greys were in the lineup and both were very effective, Markle scoring three goals on hJs night's play. Grant was given great protection in front of the nets and had nothing but long shots to handle, which he easily turned as- ide. Rolston netted two goals, while Legate scored the sixth. Sullivaan was the most prominent man on the Markdale team, display' ing some good stickhandling, and was unlucky in not getting a goal.

The W^lkerton Herald and Times repoits the following little amusing incident in a very charateristic way:| That the Absent Minded Beggar whom Kipling raved so much about! hadn't the markpt cornered on this failing is evident by the way a Walk- 1 tonian broke out in the West Ward on Friday last. Having pur- chased an aged horse that day, the owner tied the plug in the stable next to the stall occupied by his .Jer- sey cow, and when milking time came around, what does the local do but grab his pail and run directly to the horse. Seating himself under the nag ho was preparing to do hJs stuff, when he suddenly came) to and realized that he was in the wrong pew. Sensing the ridiculousness of the situation he was about to rise and betake himself hence, when on stand- ing up he behqid his young daughter peering his way and as perplexed as Alice in Wonderland at what she saw. The news soon got to the household and the man, though strictly temper- ate, was directly under a cloud of suspicion and on arriving in with the milk had to do more explaining than if he had been caught red-handed with a cork screw and a bottle of moonshine. Some one has said that your sins will find you out, and men have doubtless been convicted on less conclusive circumstantial evidence than this, but here was an instance where absent-mindedness and a sani- tary breath formed a combination that was responsible for a most em- barassing situation.

TENDERS WANTED The Proton Juniors played an ex- citing game of hockey at the local rink here on Wednesday night last, and defeated the local team in an overtime battle by the score of 4 â€" 3 Both teams played good hockey in spots and there was little to choose between them, with Watson and White being the outstanding stars of the teams. The two outfits put up real battles and are able to put on a real entertainment.

HILL & Co., Limited' '"•-rkHs'? la msisfBiasfaHnsBsasBBSBBB ilfiM" •KgiaiaaiaBfsrfvgi^iiP'" In many sections of Canada, alf- alfa is becoming- an important farm crop but unfortunately this is not the case in the Maritime Provin- ces. The farmers in these provin- ces are qirite aware of the merits of this crop, but with rare exceptions, any attempts to grow it have met with complete or partial failure. How ever, experimental work with alfalfa, at the Fredericton Experimental Sta- tion, has demonstrated that it can be grown successfully if conditions are made favorable to its develop- ment. While -Alfalfa prefers a rich clay loam soil, it will do well on most dettp .soils, provided they are well drained and reasonably free of weeds as well as being in a good state of fertility. Sour soils must f i avoided but this condition can be corrected by a lib- oral application of lime. When sel- ecting seed, care should be taken to secure a hardy variety. Grimms and Ontario variegated are the two best varieties for Maritime conditions. Where Alfalfa is being gro>vn in a field for the first time, the inocul- ation of the seed should be done â€" any farmer wishing to have seed inocul- ated for a trial, may secure free of charge, enough nitro culture, from the Central Experimental Farm, Ott- awa, to treat one bushel of seed. The rate of seed sown per acre may vary from fifteen to twenty pounds an acre, but the latter rate should apply to beginners as it will insure a thicker stand of plants. Nurse crops may be issed, such as barley or wheat, if •sown lightly, but we find it much better to sow alfalfa about the middle "f June without a nurse crop. If the latter method is followed, the plants grow much stronger and develop a root system more capable of resist- ing heaving the following spring. Pasturing newly seeded alfalfa is almost sure to prove disastrous. It should be clipped high with a mower and the clippings allowed to remain on the ground. The following spring it is well to roll the field if there is evidence of heaving, in order that tho roots may become firmly est-ab- lishcd in tho soil and not be killed by drying winds. Alfalfa should be cut when one- tenth in bloom. Two crops may be cut at this stage during the sum- mer. Only in rare instances can a third crop bo harvested under Mari- timo conditions, as tho growing sea- son is not sufficiently long to pci-mit of Rufficit-nt growth to go into the wintf-r, and winter-killing is almost K-ire to follow. AftfT each crop ''-^ ?q tpVnri off.
