After all would it not be better to build a bridge across the pier and do aiway with surveying and building a new roadway % We. notice that before June and not Inter than September the road will be closed. Well, what would fee the cost of a bridge when bath ways are taken into account ? Tis it right or wrong to go fishing 0n Sunday ?

Tim Buck may lia-ve brought back some of the King of the Oanni- bal Island ideas from Rlussie, but put- ting -them into practice in this coun- try is a thing of a different color.

Who was that Tom Marks of 50 years ago who forecast what ’this town and its inhabitants would he in thir- teen years from that dia-te 1888, that wa!s probably the Mark Brothers who travelled the country at that period with -a Vaudeville troupe and would do -a week's turn. They had two very -accomplished women, pianist and: vo- -oallist, the latter famed -as the three- voiced vocalistâ€"-soprano, alto and tenor, and gave a fine rendering of souks in this line. Tom Marks, as we knew him, was- the yo-unger broth- er of this family -and. the Osha-wa citizen of (that name is a brother, hut we did hot, know that Tom was a nrotihet, or the -on of a prophet, but from the names in this prophetical ef- fusion he has got -them on his- list, even d-o-wn to Shiner Hill*. This song of that period had a counter -part in “The Babies on our Block.” You doubtless remember it. There were many no-etical -geniuses in those days, Tom' Marks passed -away a few years -ago somewhere in the Ottawa region. M'r. John Elliott, of London, Out., -writes to the local paper acceasionailly atn-d those letters are always interest- ing. and we -are glad to receive and read them. He mentions- -a number of the old school students of this town when he was- principle here.

German war veteran and Hope Township farm hand!, left Ills place of employ- ment four months -ago to visit -a den- tist in, Toronto and has- vanished. ITe left the farm of Miss Hannah "Noble on January 27-th last with about $100 in his pocket to have h-is teeth fixed. Shell shock suffered when he was fighting with the German -army on the ISomme is suggested as- the mo-s-t likely reason for his disapcearamce. He speaks good English, is 5 feet 8 inches in height, weighing 155 lbs., clean shaven, dark brown hair, blue eyes, and of medium build. GETTING RID OF INSECT PESTS are glad to hear about, especially from yio-ur olid neighbors of -long, long -ago. For instance, we are always glad to- hear from E. White, and! his fishing and his. other trips throughout the country -and: there are many other's who could db the -same only they don’t. Why not, try it and let us hear from you. All plaints -are prey of -some insect or disease. -Do not let these pests- take the joy out of gardening. Take their eradication as -a matter of -course. There is no one insecticide spray that can fee put on plants that will kill every inlseot and disease. It ia necessary to keep a close watch on growing plants and when the plant shows signs of being -eaten, or is wilt- ing or drooping, or ha-s curling leaves, then investigate and apply a, remedy. Wherever leaves- have been eaten the culprit i's a chewing insect and the remedy is arsenate of lead spray- ed over the entire plant. As- the -in- sect continues to eait it will also eat the poison -and die. When a leaf curl's and shows a sickly color it is usually -caused' by plant lice called aphids: Those in- sects have elongated* 1 mou-tfes that au-efe the juice from the plant. The remedy is to cover the -insect’s body with an oil emulsion or a mixture of Blackleaf 40. When a plant is off-color, that is, when its leaves are a sickly green, and there is no sign of eating or chewing insects, the trouble may be due to inseots at the roots or to a disease. If the plant has maggots around the roots, water -with corro- sive sublimate (bichloride of mer- cury) in solution at the rate of 1 ounce to 10 or 15 gallons of water. A half cupful to each plant is usually sufficient. 0G£ there is no sign of worms them the plant may have the wilt disease. There is no remedy except to destroy the plant to keep - the disease from spreading. Wherever possible buy wilt resistant seeds. Scales, unless very numerous, do not kill plants. They -only retard" their growth. Before the leaves come -out in the spring it is a good. plan, to spray all -trees and shrubs with win- ter strength Bordeaux mixture. This chemical can be purchased- at any garden supply store and the direc- tions -are on the container. This- spray will kill scale and insect eggs. lElvergtretenis with brown: , needllea may be infested with red spider. Spray with an oil emulsion, one pound of ground gibe to 10 gallons of water to which wettafole sulphur has been, -added at one pound to- 10 gallons of water. ' A strong stream of water will also- help to get ridl of -them, -Learn to hand-pick bugs -and worms whenever found, and collect, them in a can partly filled with kero- sene. Eu courage birds- because they will eliminate more pests than spray guns. Substantial Price Reductions GOODYEAR TIRES Come in now for New Low Summer Prices LUNN HARDWARE Orono, Ontario
