Apples That Keep "Georgian Buy apples have an ex- cellent reputation for keeping quality . I believe this reputation to be founded on actual facts of the case. Some of the most reliable apple buyers and handlers in the Province inform me that Georgian Bay apples are a safer pioposition for storage purposes than apples from almost any other part of Ontario. The reasons arc, 1 think becauNi) the Georgian Bay district oiijoj s a moderately cool summer -t i-mi, and apples ripou thereat comparatively low temperatures. Tho district has a short fall season, and applrs ripen > close to winter that they do not begin tojbritak down until late in the sonson. - Prol.J. W. Crow, Ontario Agricul- tural College, at Guelph.

The day is past when a newspaper can thrive in every biilc hamlet. The latest newspaper in this aecnon of Ontario to give up the ghost was the Midland Timer, and this after a three yer's struggle.
