Rait ways have arranged reduced fare* and special train service for the lie, according to C. P. Riddell, Chairman of the Canadian Passenger Association. These fares are based oa single fare and one quarter for the. round trip covering the entire period of each exhibition and allow for « generous return limit. In addition tc these fares covering the entire period of each exhibition, there will also be special low fares for specific dated, to accommodate those who have only* two or three days at their disposal;. These fares will be in effect for the following exhibitions: Toronto, Aug-£3 to September 7; Quebec, August 3r to September 7.; London, September 9 to 14; Ottawa, August 19 to 24, andj will apply from many points within; a considerable radius of each exhfflJ tion centre. With these long and short limit fares in effect from many sta-tions throughout the various territorl-ties to such important centres as To-: ronto, Quebec, London and Ottawa, it is anticipated that these exhibitions will attract a host of visitors travelling over both railways during the respective periods. Waiting for the King Canadian: trndergraduafeiJ who go to the Old Country In their fcummer vacations enjoy many unusual sights and meetings but the group shown above, encountered its biggest thrill when the froyal automobile was stopped and the King and Queen chatted With them about Canada, This party is one of many from Canadian universities that visited Great Britain this year under the auspices of the Overseas Education league by the Canadian Pacific" liner Empress of Britain. They visited England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales and saw many famous schools and colleges in the British Isles, In addition to the sightseeing features that are a part of every Old Country tour* The group was viewing Buck' Ingham Palace from the Mali when Their Majesties set out for, a'drive. They stopped the cap and chatted with the Canadian; students for 10 or 15 minutes. YES, It's True That the Colborne Express is owned by an individual. . It is his property and he must pay the bills and assume all responsibilities. On the other hand, it is also true that somehow or other the public looks upon the community newspaper as being partly their property. The community expects its public institutions to be defended, to be favorably reported, to be kept in good report throughout the dstrict and the Province. Churches, societies and organizations look for and expect their activities to be reported in their home paper. And the home paper does all these things--likes to do them. This being so, it is only human that the owner of, and those who are employed at, the local newspaper office should expect that all these various interests would return the compliment ■through giving it printing orders. If all the printing requirements of this district were to be printed in Colborne, The Express would have to more than double its present staff.

A musical ride will be put on by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The -event is under the patronage of His Excellency the Governor-General and Canadian and American society folks are expected in large numbers. Enjoying a short stay at the Banff Springs Hotel on his way to taking up his post in London, His Excellency T. Matsudaira, Japanese Ambassador to Great Britain, stated to an interviewer, "I prefer just to enjoy myself and to forget for a few hours that there are more arduous duties than the contemplation of this lovely place." Addressing a gathering of the Rotary Club of Victoria at the Empress Hotel, recently, Premier Joseph A. Lyons, of Australia, pointed to the British Empire as a great force for peace and urged Canada to cultivate a more favorable trade with his own country. Last year, he said, Australia bought from Canada ?18,000,00O worth of goods, while Canada bought from Australia only $6,-000,000 worth. The Algonquin Hotel, St. An-drews-by-the-Sea, New Brunswick, opened for the summer season at the end of June, and is now the centre of much holiday activity. Their Excellencies the Governor-General and Lady Bessbo-rough were among the guests and the famous Katy's Cove bathing beach is again as in former years very popular with the children and the younger set. With the increasing popularity of vacation trips oh the Great Lakes, the Canadian Pacific has expanded its Great Lakes-steamship service to include calls at Port Arthur on westbound voyages as well as eastbound. These ships have been outfitted with deck sports, including quoits, shuffleboard and deck golf. Dancing and music bring pleasure to the evening hours. The schedule makes it possible to take an enjoyable week's trip going either way with overnight stops at both ends, Port McNicoll and Fort William. The Maritimes are again this year attracting a large number of tourists from Canada and the United States. Across the Bay of Fundy there is a very pleasant trip from Saint John to Digby where the Pines Hotel is ^p/-a{o^ and from Boston to Yar-1 mouth with its well know,n Lakeside Inn, there are regular sailings. Also the Cornwallis Inn at Kentville is a first-class centre for trips to the famous Evangeline Country around Grand Pre. August is the peak month at the Banff Springs Hotel when between August 26-31 golf amateurs of the world will compete in the historic Prince of Wales Trophy and the Willingdon Cup. The course, a mile above sea-level and set in the midst of some of the most glorious scenery on the continent, is the locale of the play. CARE OF THE GROWING FLOCK Management, feeding and hygiene are the chief considerations in ?ucessful handling of a growing flock of poultry. Under "management" come numerous factors of great importance. Wheie chicks are placed in a brooder house they should not be overcrowded. A 10x12-foot colonly house will accommodate a maximum of 300 chicks. Larger numbers are dangerous from the standpoint of physical com-i fort and disease. Sufficient hopper s-pace should be available so that all the chicks may feed comfortably. This requirement will generally be .satisfied by one incl* per chick, at the start, with a gradual increase they become larger. During the whole of the rearing period, when practicable, the birds should have access ho free range of as good quality as can be made available. When the pullets begin to lay, they should be taken into the laying houses in order to avoid difficulty in teaching them to use the nests and so that their feeding may be adjusted to take care of the increased demands of egg production. In so far as feeding is concerned, in view of the importance of the growth period upon the eventual production of the pullets, the use of cheap feeds is poor economy.

Lakehurst Agricultural Society This society has recently purchased the imported Percheron stallion "Jas-mire" from G. A. Peddon of Strath- For many years the Lakehurst Society has consistently followed a policy of maintaining pure bred bulls for the use of its members. This progressive work, covering a period of years, has resulted in a uniformly high standard of feeder cattle, for which market channels are open. The district is well known to cattle buyers. Apparently a similar policy is now being adopted to serve horse interests VERNONVILLE August 20th, 1935 i Toronto on Hamilton, CONTROLLING MUSTARD In an experiment conducted on Central Experimental Farm, mustard was controlled in the following manner. Buckwheat, which is a fast growing smother crop was seeded about June 15. The mustard seed lying the first IV2 inches of soil germinated about the same time as the buckwheat but the mustard seedlings were soon killed by the faster growing ither crop. After harvesting the buckwheat, the land was not cultivat-3d or disturbed in any way. The fol-owing spring oats were seeded on he buckwheat stubble, directly with the seed drill, with no previous culti-ation. Some mustard came up in the grain but the infestation was so small that the plants were hand pulled with little difficulty and the yield of grain vas nigher than on the adjoining plots eeeled in the^rdinary way. No organization of a similar nature rings together more countries than the World's Poultry Association does it the World Poultry Congress which ire the teriennial meetings of the Association. Canada takes an important part in the spreading of scientific and practical poultry knowledge and will be represented at the next congress which will be held in Berlin, Germany, in 1936. The dairy industry has become the most important branch of agriculture in the United States, notwithstanding the fact that production is almost entirely for domestic consumption, the exports of dairy products being comparatively insignificant. Dairying was the most important branch of agriculture in the United States to suffer from the depression. Mrs. C. B. Turk w Thursday last. Mrs. Jack Rushtc visiting relatives here.

We read with interest that a statesman advises us to relinquish the gold, standard and accept humanity standard. It sounds O.K., but we are of the opinion there will be a lot of disqualifying and resigning' among the powers that be before the thing is fairly under way.
