Haycock, the former leader of the Patrons of Industry in the Ontario legislature, who lives on a farm near the village of Adolphus- town, makes a specialty of raising onions. Mr. Haycoek, who is seventy- five years of age, when speaking to a representative of the Whig at his home, stated that he delighted to work in his garden. Mr. Haycock sald that some years ago when peel- ing an onion the thought came to him if he could only raise an onion the size and shape of a baseball there would certainly be a good market for them. After some years of experi- menting he has been able to grow an onion that looks like a baseball, and is an excellent seller. The onion has proven such a success that two years ago Mr. Haycock sold $191 worth of seed and also sold a great quantity for commercial use. Mr. Haycock has called his new onion "Progres- sive." Mr. Haycock"s garden, which is THE DAILY BRITISH Joseph L. Haycock Makes a Specialty and Raspberry Bushes--Dry as His Land Is Irrigated. located close to his residence, is well arranged. There are four hun- dred raspberry bushes which last year produced 1883 boxes of berries. The strawberries are still a very uncertain quantity on account of the severe frost. Mr. Haycock has a large plot of potatoes which are do- ing very well considering the frost of last month. The Haycock farm is located on the Bay of Quinte, and in places the bank of the river is elevated for a distance of thirty feet Mr. Hay- cock informed the Whig that a few years ago when every person in the province was complaining of the dry weather he bought a great length of pipe and was able to force water up from the bay to irrigate his berry bushes and other produce which were in, need of moisture. At the present time he is arranging to place a new wind-mill in order and it can be used for supplying water to the crop during the dry weather. LETTERS To The Editor Facial Defopmities. Kingston, June 2.-- (To the Edi- tor) : Broadcasting by radio, is be- coming a wonderful public educator, hut it still has to take second place to the newspaper. More people read the newspapers than have radios yet, besides the newspaper record is more complete and lasting than the radio record. I have just been reading a broad- casted lecture by Martin Dewey, D. D.S.M.D.,, New York, under above heading and published in "Oral Health" I thought it so good that I would broadcast it to the par- ents of children through the Radio of the British Whig, provided, of course, that the editor is willing to spare the space. I will condense a bit (although the subject needs en- larging), and dispense with quota- tion marks. The doctor commences: The other day I saw a man selling false-faces, and the though came to me that a great many people were go- ing through life wearing faces which did not belong to them. Nearly every child is born with a normal face. Many a fond mother boasts as to the beauty of her child. She thinks her baby is the most beautiful creation in the world; and there are many beautiful babies. - The great differ- ence between the number of beauti- ful babies and the number of hand- some adults is because somewhere, during the process of growth and development the beautiful baby is forced, for some reason or other, to assume a face that nature never in- tended it should wear. Mother's beautiful angel becomes lost in a group of homely faces that have not had a chance to develop properly, because the proper atten- tion and care was not given to the child during the growing period. Practically every child has a normal face up to the time the deciduous teeth, or baby teeth, are developed. In other words, inheritance tends to produce a normal face, but certain environments tend to produce de- formities. By environments, we mean those conditions with which the in- dividual, or the human family as » whole, have some control. The majority of facial deformities are associated with malposition or maldevelopment, of the teeth. What is the cause? The answer is 80 per cent. of these developed deformities are the result of civilisation; because civilization is controlled by organiz- pd society, and organized society has brought about conditions which are detrimental to the normal develop ment of the teeth. We might change the word "civilization" as being the causé of maloeclusion to the word "disuge," because the type of food the a youngster eats is so prepared that it is unnecessary for the child to masticate its food: con- sequently, about the time the de- ciduous teeth have erupted, the lack of use has brought about a meloe- clusion of the teeth and an unde- velopment of the face and jaw, which produces a very noticeable de- formity later in lite. Another evil effect of disuse, or rather, lack of use, which has a bearing upon facial deformities, is because of improper food, and the téeth are not properly cleansed, and, consequently, decay early and are often extracted before lack of development of the bony structure supporting the teeth, and, in turn, again produce facial de- formities. the |' you see when you meet a person is the front teeth. Mouth-breathing and nursing bottles also produce facial deformities. If the child is allowed to such on rubber niples he fools himself and he fools his parents by developing a facial deformity. Individuals with protruding teeth and deformed jaws, that almost des- troy every resemblance to the human face, could have been successfully treated during the period of growth. Foods and habits are the controlling factors in facial deformities. The teeth have various functions to perform and it is only when they occupy their normal position that we can expect the child to develop a normal face. Orthodontia is the science which has for its subject the correction of maloeclusion of the teeth. The amount of benefit that can be done by this science is only limited by the age at which the treatment is begun. If your child js not as beagyti- ful as you think it should be, or it you notice the face becoming less pleasing, remember that orthodontic treatment is able to correct this mal- development and give your child the face that nature intended it should have. With apologies to Doctor Deway, I rémain, Yours truly, 8. A. AYKROYD. ------ A SCARCITY OF FISH IN BAY OF QUINTE Fishermen Report Unusual Condition -- An Increase Expected Later in Season. Fishermen wiio reside on the shore from Collin's Bay up as far as Adol- phustown report that the fishing-so far this season is the worst in years. When lsked by a Whig representa- tive if they could give any reason for the bad season they stated that the fish did not appear to be in the waters of the Bay of Quinte. It is certainly a very serious thing for these men who make a business of fishing. An evidence of how bad the fishing is this season is told by Some fishermen who live near the village of Bath. It has been a com- mon occurrence this spring for tHe men to only obtain from four to forty white fish and trout in a net which had been in the water for a period of four days. Under ordinary conditions it was usual for the same fishermen to obtain & mess of fish that would be worth in the neighbor- hood of $60. A cateh this spring has only brought about from #3 to $5 after the fishermen had gone to just as much trouble as they would have done for the $50 haul. One fisherman stated that he found upon taking up 2,500 yards of net that there were only four fish, which was certainly very discourag- ing, The fishermen have done every- thing in their power to get fish but they all agree that they are not in the waters. the season advances the fish may in- crease in number and it is certainly to_be. hoped so. . Mr. Lewis, Bath, who buys from the fishermen, told a Whig man that 80 far this season business his beén #0 light that the m | EFFICIENT | HOUSEKEEPING By Laura A. Kirkman.
