Or- An Enactment of the Legislature Le- galizes the Purchase of the Pota- toes by the, County. The Ontario Legislature recently passed an amendment to Section $U¥ of the Municipal Act which appar- ently makes the purchase of the seed potatoes by the county of Fron- tenac Council in 1917 quite legal and the loss can be legally, through this amendment, paid out of the county treasury, it is understood. The case has been the subject of Inspector William McCammon, of Kingston and Exley of Napanee bad a Hvely time on Tuesday afternoon at Napanee, . They were on the trail of liquor smugglers and awaited the arrival of the G. T. R. train from the east, expecting that their quarry, two men and a woman would get off. However, only one of the men came from the train. In his possession were five suitcases, for which an automobile was waiting, but the in- spectors managed to direct the cases to another auto which they had em- (Canadian Press Despatch.) progressive : Ottawa; April 30.--The discontin- der now.

Dr, Spankie and others refused tu allow the money dropped in the transac- tion to be taken from the county treasury. The matter was handed over to the county solicitors, Nickle, Farrell and Day, aid three suits for the recovery of the money were en- tered and will be heard at the sit- tings of the Supreme Court on May 19th, The actions. which were brought against the townghips of Pittsburg, Storrington and Portiand would involve over a& thousand dol- lars. The amendment to the Municipal Act was inspired locally, and it reads that all municipalities have power to purchase supplies of vegetables, seeds, seed roots and tubers to aid production, This amendement "shall be deemed to have been in force on, from and after the 12th day of April, 1917." This was the date that the Frontenac deal came off. The next move in the game is /be- ing anviously awaited as there will undoubtedly 'be an attempt to carry out the intention of the original suits, in spite of this assistance from the Ontario Legislature. | Letters to the Editor | How to Re-Forest. Kingston, April 28.---(To the Editor): That was a brilliant lec- ture last night on forest conserva- tion, and if it had been given forty years 'ago and put into practice in Frontenac county it would have meant thousands of dollars. Now our timber is practically atl gone, except scrub "and Jack pine. Springs and creeks are dry. What is the remedy? is asked on all sides. On a recent visit to the county of Welland. 1 was surprised to see large areas of bush, and learned that they had a systam of re~fores- tration which might "well be applied in Frontenac, viz.,, tp draw leaves that drop in the fall to the land in October from hard wood trees, as such are all propagated from seed. I was shown a plot of three acres that had been stocked. from two hard maple trees that grow near. Our sons don't need a college edu- cation to start a sugar bush or any other kind of a bush; simply gather and scatter the leaves and nature will do the rest. / this is just the beginning. Cattle, horses and sheep must be kept off the land so planted or the work will be useless, as they will eat the tender leaves as fast as the young trees show above the ground, In the township of Crowsland and Wainfleet, twelve miles from' Niagara, they have a system of ex- empting from - taxation all 'land where tree seeds have been sown and stock excluded. My friend that 1 visited had forty acres so exempt: ed. ~--GEORGE HUNTER, J.P. TO MAKE IMPROVEMENTS. To Union Baptist Church=--May Erect Parsonage.

A much respected ploneer resident of Cedar Valley passed away, on April 24th, in the person of Anthony Rod- gers, Deceased had been in failing health for some time and gradually Toes lapsed into unconsciousness followed by death on Thursday afternoon. The late Mr. Rogers was born near Har- lem, eighty-four years ago, and while still a baby his father moved to Port- land 'and became the first settler on the farm that has been in the hands of the family ever since and where deceased died. Mr. Rodgers had al- ways been a very active man in the affairs of the county and much im- provement is due to his energy. He was always ready to lead a helping hand in anything that conduced to a neighbor's comfort, and the genuine regret felt at his passing speaks the esteem held for him. Many spirit- ual offerings covered the casket and gave silent testimony of respect and love. The funeral, which was largely attended, proceeded to the Church of the Holy Martyrs, Philipsville, on Saturday,where solemn réquiem mass was sung for the repose of the soul, after which the libera was chanted and the remains then laid to rest in the family plot A| beside those of his wife, who predeceased him by four years. Two sons, Richard, a farmer of Cedar Valley, and William, on the home- stead, and two daughters, Mrs. Jennie Hart, Retland, Alta., and Mrs. T. J. Pelow, Kingston, survive to mourn his loss. The bearers were Messrs. J. C. Allen, Andrew Lyons, William Ripley, J. E. Sullivan, James Rolph, Edward O'Meara. ° 242k dda > SATISF ACTION GUARANT EED ONTARIO CREEDS.

I believe that by careful selec- tion of our chickens I can double the output of the flock. 5. I believe that by introducing alfalfa on our faFm that we can keep twice as many domestic animals as at present. 6. I believe that by keeping twice as many animals we will be able to grow much larger crops of alfalfa and other things. 7. 1 believe that by planting shade trees, growing flowers, shrubs, and keeping a tidy homestead that we will be better contented and happier in every way, and our farm will in- crease in value. 8: 1 believe not in luck, but in pluck. 9. 1 believe that farming is a most honorable calling, and having deecid- ed to stay on the farm, it is my duty to make the best use of my time, now in school, that I may be the better |} farmer in the days that are to come. 10, I believe in working when I work and playing when I play, and in giving and receiving a square deal in every act of life, Girls' Oreed 1.

I believe that I could study real hard at my grammar ahd geography and arithmetic spelling if 1 could do cooking or with the other girls in the afternoon. 8. I don't want to go to town and leave my father and mother and my brothers and sisters behind while 1 live in the, city; for I know I will miss them all, and the trees and the creek and the green grass and the woods and everything, but, oh! I don't want to stay at home and do nothing but wash dishes and carry ter and do the chores, and grow d like auntie. I want to faugh and love afd live.
