P. Riddell, Chairman of the Canadian Passenger Association. These fares are based on single fare and one quarter for the round trip covering the entire period of each exhibition and allow for generous return limit. In addition to these fares covering the entire period of each exhibition, there will also be special low fares for specific dates 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-23 to September 7; Quebec, August 31 to September 7.; London, September 9 to 14; Ottawa, August 19 to 24, and will apply from many points within a considerable radius of each exhibition centre. With these long and short limit fares in effect from many stations throughout the various territori-ties to such important centres as Toronto, 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 undergraduate* who go to the Old Country in their Summer vacations enjoy many unusual sights and meetings but the group shown above, encountered its biggest thrill when the royal 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 sight-seeing features that are a part of every Old Country tour. The group was viewing Buckingham Palace from the Mall when Their Majesties set out for a drive. They stopped the car 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.

Cattle Bloating in Ontario Reports of cattle and horses in the St. Thomas district suffering from bloating with some cases ending fatally were investigated recently by Professor R. G. Knox Of the Department of Animal Husbandry, O.A.C.. Guelph. and Dr. McTntosh, Ontario Veterinary College, Guelph, accompanied by F. S. Thomas, agricultural representative for Elgin County. The bloating of the cattle, Professor Knox stated is probably due to a change of diet, cattle that were on dry feed being turned on lush pastuer. The condition that has caused cattle to! chew bones and wood meal also has i some bearing on th» bloating, he j stated. Dr. Mcintosh said that the chewing of bones and wood occurs as a result) of deficiencies in the diet, and in this j particular instance phosporus is the j deficient one. The animals most fre-i quently affected are young, milking cows. The condition usually manifests itself in the spring when cattle are first turned out to grass at the conclusion of a long stable-feeding period, i Hays and grains grown in years of 1 diought such as recurred last year are | quite deficient in phosphorus and con-j sequently animals nay crave for this j element,-he said. Dr. .McTntosh advised local farmers who have reported cattle with lepra ,--ed appetites, to correct the condition [by the addition of bran, oi^ cake, or - bean rneal to the grain rations, j CASTLETON August 27th, 1935 Eric Terry has been ill for a few days.
