Bran The Late Charles Harnden Charles Harnden passed suddenly away, from heart disease, on Tuesday, April 27th, 1937, at the home of Mr. Archie Chapman. Cramahe Township, where he had been staying for some time. He was in his 76th year, and had been in poor health late years. He is survived by a sister living in Rochester, N.Y., and a number of nephews and nieces in various places in the county. The funeral service was held at the home of his nephew, Mr..Walter Harnden, a nephew. East Colborne, and was conducted by the Rev. A. Armstrong, of Hilton. A large number ot friends were present. The pallbearers were all old friends and neighbours, John Wright, John Cooney, Geo. W. Gummer, Herbert McDonald, Frank Chapman, Keith Stimers. The floral tributes were beautiful. Iriterment took place beside his late brother and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln Harnden, in the family plot in Salem Cemetery. Mrs. W. R. Workman Laid to Rest Tuesday person of Orpha Workman, wife of Walter R. Workman, of this town, passed to her higher reward on Saturday, April 17th, 1937, after a few months' illness, death being due to a stroke which she suffered early in January. A patient at the Union Hospital for some time following her attack, she made good recovery and was able to return home. About three weeks ago, however, she weakened again and gradually sank, the end cording peacefully on the above date. Mrs. Workman, whose maiden name was Orpha Bellamy, was born August 1st, 1870. at Colborne. Ont., where she was educated and spent the early days of her life. She was married February 25th, 1892, to Mr. Workman and came west as a bride, and together they cheerfully took up duties on a homestead in the Forbisher district. A few years later they came to the Oxbow1 district and eventually made their home on the Souris River, south of town. About nine years ago they moved to Oxbow, where deceased lived up to the time of her passing. Only the pioneer residents will recall the genuine hospitality which reigned in the Workman home during the early days, and the fine part played by Mrs. Workman in extending a hearty welcome to all who entered her home. There were many hardships in those early days, and trying were the times, but through it all she retained a buoyant and cheery manner, never allowing the cares of her home or the outside world to disturb her tranquility and poise. She home-loving woman, somewhat retiring, but with many fine qualities which radiated her being, and the community is the poorer for her removal from the district. The funeral was held on Tuesday from St. Paul's Chinch, and despite the inclement w^Hj^l m Corn Borer Control During the past season, the European corn borer was injuriously abundant in several- districts, and in effort to prevent a repetition of this outbreak in 1937, every grower raising either sweet or fodder corn should make a determined effort to put the recommended control methods - into The remedy in this case is cheap and simple. The corn borer passes the winter in corn refuse lying in the field or stored in buildings. In June of the following year the moths emerge and lay their eggs on the lower surfaces of the new corn leaves. These eggs hatch in a few days when the young borers bore their way into the plant and feed within both stalk and cob. Control is brought about in the autumn and early spring by completely destroying all corn refuse and contained borers, lying in the field or stored in buildings. The following clean up suggestions should be carried out: (1) Cut all corn as low as possible in order to remove the bulk of the borers with the stalk. (2) Feed completely or burn, all stalks before May 20th--of the following years. (3) Uproot and burn all sweet corn stocks which cannot be conveniently ploughed under, as soon as they have dried out. (4) Plough down all infested stubble and corn refuse in the garden and field before May 20th so carefully that it is all completely.covered. (5) Burn all corn refuse remaining about the farm before May 20th. As corn borer moths readily fly from one farm to the next, community action in control is most important. Make every effort to induce neighbouring growers to put control practices into operation and clean up all corn refuse before Mav 20th. bait has given the 1 for the appel effective person, and which . trol for many yearg and jg made up -^.^ <. ..uisance by giving : vvitn the following ingredients--bran, or otherwise terrifying the, 20 pounds; moiasses, one quart; Paris j.

"There the weary be at rest." and he pointed out how, when the halo of the N'ew Testament teaching about Christ and the life hereafter is thrown around the Old Testament text, it gleams as a precious gem.
