‘_v 7 The success can be attributed to l, the fact that the leadership was ne- 1 ver in better hands than in those of , John Carew, the broad-shouldered, affable and energetic lumber king; I the popular and enterprising presid- ent. He devoted considerable time V to the interests of the fair, and during the past month he has super- vised the many improvements made to the various buildings and looked after the hundred and one little things that had to be attended to. Vice-President J os. Hickson, J. A. Williamson, B. L. McLean, Mayor Begg, E. Hopkins and the other di- j rectors, whose increasing endeavors ‘ have been crowned with a success that is merely prophetic of the still greater townships that awaited the Lindsay Central Fair, are also de- serving of commendation. Lindsay’s Central exhibition this year has triumphed over one big obstacle, that of bad weather. It has achieved a success despite the‘ uniavorable weather of Saturday,‘ and the entire directorate deserve praise. The fair is getting bigger‘ and better every year and no doubt added improvements will be made for the annual event in 1911. The big iair is over, and it is op- 'portune to extend congratulations to the management. '58 a suggestion might it not be a good idea to either hold the fair one teak earlier or at least change the days from Thursday, Friday and Saturday, to Wednesday, Thursday 3nd Friday. During the last three or four years it has rained on Sat- urday, spoiling the attendance, and also the program at the fair. one or the best. It may not w w the same class as Toronto and Ot- tawa, but it outdistances a very large number of the “ lesser lights.” Every department was up to the usual standard of efficiency, the edu- cational, agricultural and amuse- ment features harmonizing, with the result that the fair was an “ un- Qualified success.” . n. ‘7‘. “ " The Lindsay Central Fair this an unqualified success de- spite the inclemency of the weather." The remark was made by Presid- ent John Carew to a Warder report- er; an unqualified success. The Lindsay Central stands prominently in the midst of the var- ious {all fairs in the province. as mm of the best.

Good bananas are teen cents a: dozen. scarce at two cents Canada-'8 lean fruit ; s are plentiful at fife teen cents a: dozen. Good apples are scarce at two cents apiece. It is Canada’s lean fruit year, and the ex. port trade is a heavy drain on the supply of “ extra selects,” but even in an ad season the apple should be more plentiful than now. The rea- son for its scarcity is suggested by the articles published on apple culti- ivation. It is somewhat startling to read that the imsprayed crew pro- duces fruit which is 50 per cent. culls, while only one apple in a hund- red is so classified when the trees are properly treated. Ontario has been prodigal with its Torchards. The apple is as fine and as healthy a fruit as nature provid- es, but the wormy. stunted, and 4A -._- 451-‘35 Goodbanana es, but the wormy, stunted, and dried up specimens in Peterboro this year are not worthy the mane of ap- ple. Most 'of the orchards of the Province have been let run wild. No attention has been paid to their cul- tivation. -Old trees have not been replaced by young ones. And any- one may see the result by looking in the average apple barrel at the aver- age grocery store. - ' 7- -....a “by D-V"_d Spr'aying, soil cultivation, and: pruning will do 'wouders with an ap- i ple orchard. Sometimes the hogs‘ will help too. There is a species of green fly which lays its eggs under the skin of the growing fruit. These eggs develop into worms, which-tun- nel in the juicy flesh until the apple ‘ falls. It is all a wonderful provis- ion oi nature for the propagation of the species, for the worm thus un-l consciously calls gravity to its aid? in order that it may crawl from the apple into the earth, and there reo‘ main during the winter as pupae un- til spring, when it is transformed in- to green flies. Thus, in nature’s ceaseless round, the pest is perpet- uated, unless, indeed, the farmer gathers up his wormy apples, or keeps a hog or two in the orchard to eat them as soon as they fall. An intelligent campaign against apple destroyers would cut the price of Ontario’s apples in half. And the consumer would get sound fruit » instead of worms for his mane.â€" ' Peterboro Times. 11‘ S MAJESTY THE APPLE “Some Conditions in"Brita.in,” is the title of an excellent address de- livered recently by Mr. P. D. Ross, of the OttawaJournal, who was present at the Imperial ~Press Con- terence in London, Eng. The address was delivered before the Empire Club of Canada at Toronto? and one par- ticularly striking part of the address was the remarks in regard to the conditions existing in the poorer .parts 01 Lyndon, in the slums. This part of his address is well worth printing, and is as follows: The Press Conference saw the great industries, the great Waterways, the great mills, the great educational in- ‘ stitutions. I want to hurry to speak “of another matter -the reverse side of the pictureâ€"the question of paup- ers. and the unemployed, and of drink and of the slums. The first thing. itseanstome, wehave to maths. in discussing s. question like that. is, that it is a. comparat- ive questionâ€"that no man is justified g; Jpokins on one side of the shield REVERSE SIDE OF THE PICTURE mgg‘mve suits. 013““ mung side 01 he shield. dons 0! human distress are coupon- save in two ways. comparative as regards the conditions Which sur- round than. and comparative u‘ re- gurds eaom which are being made to oVercome them.

Considerable numbers of men seemed to be idle. and a. good many of them looked un- derfed and useless, but London is a very big city.

Any- one considering only such a. portion of the people, might well feel dis- pirited about the condition. But, anyone who would consider only the side to the case would be fool- ish. I. would not minimize the dis- tress and the evil and the hopeless- ness of tens of thousands of people in the great centres of British popu- lation. But I would reflect that there are enormously greater masses of sterling human stuff alongside ‘them ; and I would remember that 'these centres are the most densely populated spots of the globe. All the above is in striking con- trast to the observations made by Dr. Macdonald, of The Globe, who also attended the Imperial Press Conference, and who printed his ob- e Globe.
