Public Invited to Discuss pure Milk DO you enjoy a good Debate? A live topic in the every-day conversation of this Town and district is the question of assuring pure dairy products from govern- ment tested cows. The "farmer who has milk, cream and butter to § sell, as well as those of us who buy their products, are equally inter- ested. Do you believe all milk should be pasteurised, or is it only a fad, or even a scheme by which some- body hopes to profit? These are matters of such vita impor tance to the whole commun: ity that a debate in which all the arguments will be brought out is being arranged by a committee of the Literary Society, of which Mrs M. EF. Cook is convenor. The debate will be held in the Town Hall next Friday evening at eight o 'clock, and will be oper to everybody. The leaders have been chosen because of knowledge of their subject and because they can put up a good argument. Come and ask questions. A Musical Programme. A nice little programme is being oy arranged to make the evening ¢ pleasant one. You will find it ver; enjoyable. Some singing, some playing, all just the way you like it -- good music, but not too "classical." And then you want to be sure that the milk and butter you use and give to your children is pure and good, and how it can be kept so. We don't want to tell you the details of the programme, but to surprise you with its working out Don't you think that's a good idea and adds. to the interest? . The Question.

On account of the deep snow, bush work is being held up, and teams are having a most difficult time, getting anything out. And it still keeps on storming and snowing. All in all, we have and are still having one of the rawest winters we can remember. There should be one thing to comfort us, since one wice man has said: Much snow produces much clover seed. We do not know where that fellow got his information. But in any case, we hope 'he hit it right Mr H. Grrunewald returned from an eight day visit to Winnipeg.

On the south side of buildings is most preferable. Make sure also to have a wind-break from the west. It is a fact that light t built hot- beds are better than perman- "nt ones as we have seen them, built of concrete or brick. To make frames, anything will do, bwo or three inch lumber is wonder- rql; but inch boards will answer as well even slabs or logs can be made The size of your hot-bed depends on | he size of windows you have at hand. | in our own case, we take in the early days of April, as many storm- windows from our house as we think we will need, and this answers the purpose very nicely. i If you have found a suitable place, 4 is wise to take about a foot of soil sut, and fill this wanure. Put up your frame, which and give slope to the south, to give rain a chance to run off quickly. After tramping down the manure as much as possible, you can cover the 'rame with windows.

Leaving at 8.00 -a.m. Wednesday, Supt. Blain, Miss Kennedy and Prov. Jonstable Hake, proceeded to the Franklin Towertond on a team.

Upon arrival at the Franklin home, prior reports regarding this, were ful- ly justified, as such was found to be Six of the eight children, ranging rom three months to ten years, were at home, the other two being boys of twelve and fourteen were working for farmers some four or five miles away. Each child was studiously taken in charge by Miss Kennedy, and given a shorough washing and put into clean that purpose. © After the general clean-up was over, the party returned to Dryden ar- riving at 2.00 p.m. The Girl twins, aged four months were examined by Dr Dingwall, who advised their being placed in the Dryden Red Cross Hosp. to be taken care of and nourished. It was learned from Mrs Franklin that the goat she was depending upon for milk, had gone dry about one week before, and the twins since that time sugar, and Arrouroot biscuits. The same afternoon, Supt. Blain ap- neared before Magistrate Pronger with Mrs Franklin and children, and asked for the custody of the children. Evi- dence as to the home life conditions, and surrounting circumstances was tnlen from the different witnesses and Mrs Franklin, all of which went to tell of the temptations, ete. which a widow- ad mother and family has to sometimes munity.
