The Brockville Recorder calls at- tention to the dangerous and un- wholesome practice of burning leaves on public streets. This time of year it is & popular pastime with children. The element of denger in so doing is also present. it cagnot be obviated so long as the practice is permitted. There also is the effect on the atmos- phere of the smoke from the burning leaves. It i anything but invigorat- ing. In this country we get, in the natural course of events, a long, cold winter. These delightful autumn ev- enings are a great boon to the public, but unfortunately are too often mar- red by the smoke-filled air. The dead leaves are a good and powerful fer- tiliser. This view is discussed in a trenchant letter to the London Adver- tiser by a weli-knowm farmer of the Niagara district, and is worthy of publication. He says: : "Now that the ground around the trees is being carpeted with falling leaves, would you let me call the at- tention of those who have garden plots to the great value of these as fertilizers? In the past it has been a #00 'common practice to collect them in héaps and burn them instead. of storing them on thé beds for future fallen leaves of each autumn are, apart from decaying trunks and branches, nature's systematized and almost only material contribution to the fertility of the forest soil, which gives strength and size and grace to the trees. The department of agricul- ture at Washington has givem it out as a scientific fact that as a fertilizer they are better than barpyard man- ure. To show that they are equally valuable in our gardens, I have this year beea making some experiments. Previously I bad mtilized them as a winter cover for strawberries, and then in the spring dug them:in, with the result of having berries of large size; but, Ite in March last, they were placed to the depth of six tches over the beds in which 'were to be grown sunflowers, asters, melons and beans, and were well dug in. No other fertiliser was applied beyond waste liquids from the kitchen. The soil was & sandy loam, and care was ta- ken to have surface cultivation, and 10 provide, throughout the summer, amplp moisture. The result was a re- velstion. The sunflowers grow to éle- ven and twelve feet in height and their flowers were all ten to twelve inches across. The asters were two and & halt and three feet high, and their flowers were ail four to tive and a half inches in diameter, snd in their perfect shape ware Hke chrysan- other funeral! If you make en- quirtes you will find that he died in his bed also. Ome would think--In fact, he is taught from his earliest | years--that bed is the safest place | for you: "Now I lay me down to | sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep," and 'Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, bless the bed that I lie on!" . That's all very well as far as it goes, but the stupendous fact asserts itself that the Spare Bed hath kill- ed more folks _since last January than the automobiles, and 'got away with it, There's ole Abner Teeple, He came down from the far west this fall to see his folks and incidental- ly visit the township show and meet up with his acquaintances. He safe- ly ran the gauntlet of a thousamd- mile trip, he dodged steam, gasoline and electricity and he wasnt so awful spry on his feet, either, but today he is dead---yes, sir, ole Ab- ner he's gone. He sleeps his last long sleep In a clump of briars and choke-cherry trees in the left hamd corner of the Rock Chapel burying ground as you go in. I saw Abner lying so peaceful in his coffin and there wasn't a scratch onto him! Nevertheless, I hold that an inquest should have been held and the verdict should have read like this: "We find that the subject under discussion snuffed out in Hezekiah | Teeple's spare bed and that the said spare bed had not been slep' in since his grandmother, the esteemed Missus Sevenpiper (Jim's wife) died in it on the eighteenth of last Feb ruary.
