Rimmington. 14-11-18 Peterboro, April 20.--One hundred and sixty men and women, representing the leaders of both political parties, and outstanding figures in the religious and business walks ol Peterboro, gathered at a citizens-inner at the Empress Hotel last ight, to honour Senator Iva Campbell Fallis, on her appointment to the Senate. The affair had been planned for sotane month®, but had been postponed owing to illness of Senator Fallis. The program was arranged by a committee appointed by Mayor George MacdonaJld with representatives from the Peterboro Business and Professional Women's OluD, organizers of the plan to fete Senator Fallis, who is the first Conservative woman to occupy a seat in the Reirl Chamber. Mayor Macdonald, toastmaster. called on E. A. Peck, one-time ex-M.P., and veteran member of the Conservative party, to propose the toast 'Our Guest." J. J. Duffis, M.P., l__ tfrs. W. R. Morris, member of the Peterboro Board of Education, supported the toast with brief spe'e<" Takes Men to Task The rjeady wit which has made Senator Fallis one of the outstanding women speakers in the Dominion was manifest as she, replying to the toast, took the male sex to task for waiting 1900 years before giving women the franchise. "I consider it a great compliment, said Senator Fallis, "that so many friends representing both political parties, and all walks of life, have gathered here to-night to greet More Leaders Needed Potatoes for Seed All growers of seed, whether _ Senator Fallis sketches the evolution of women in politics from early times up until the present day, describing the feminist movement which reached its peak when women were admitted to the Senate. She expressed regret that even yet there is- nothing even slightly resembling portionate number of women holding political office, or leading in church and business affairs. "There is always plenty of room for women on the list of taxpayers." commented the speaker. rapped those men who still maintain that woman's place is -_ . home, and who claim that women are stealing the jobs in industry and in the commercial world. "Women entered industry when they were forced to decide between work or tion," declared Senator Fallis. The old theory that women should not take jobs would be rational if every woman had a comfortable home and an income she added. "It is a pleasure for a woman to know to-day that her career is determined by her ability alone, and not by custom or environment," she declared. In her talk she outlined the duifi how the members, wnos« »vra is featured by a judicial attitude and a complete lack of partisanship, look after the minority or sectional rights of all people, thus assuring every section of Canada that no legislation will be pushed through which might i>e beneficial to one section, but detrimental to another. Vision Essential Individuals as well as political members' need a greater knowledge of the problems besetting each province, and every true Canadian should ,have a vision of Canada as a single POTATOES FOR SALE--Quantity of; national unit, she said. Continuing, ' Senator Fallis contended that to do other kind of seed, should endeavour to produce seed of superior quality by starting with the most suitable varieties and strain, and selecting 8he very best seed for their own plantings. In the production of seed potatoes, there is much room f( provement, and all too frequently bruised, damaged, small off-type, or otherwise inferior left-over potatoes are planted, particularly if prices have been alluring. Actual selection of superior strains of potatoes is apparently not receiving the attention that is so fundamental to success and yet the seed potato growers may be producers of really high quality cattle and other live stock, and would not for a moment think of using the same tactics in their breeding program. Why thenj. not apply similar care and prin ciples to the production of high quality seed potatoes. The Seed Potato Certification Service has been advocating such a system for many years with varying cess. It is true, that diseases have been controlled, or methods for their control practised, but that is not the whole sfoTT. An effort should be made by every seed potato grower, through selection, to produe stock, which in addition to being more or less free from serious diseases, is also apparently disease resistant. Good seed should be true to type, high yielding, and of good appearance. That is to say. tuber shape, colour of skin and eye characters should all be consid- \ ered and an effort made to cull not conforming to a certain set i dard of excellence. In other words, seed selection. The tuber unit method of planting, of which much has been written, is one big step leading toward such an end and growers would be well advised to practice every means by which the quality of seed may be improved.

The Dominion Horticulturalist recommends early sowing coupled with the use of early maturing good varieties. The sowing should be made just early enough to have stocky well grown plants in bloom and ready for planting out at the sign of settled J weather. .Soils unduly rich in nitrogen tend to promote rank wood growth and a small amount of fruit. Low nitrogen, high phosphoric acid and a medium amount of potash are essential to good results. Because of their mineral content Canadian fish foods are health builders as well as strength builders.
