Fourteen farmers on the Island had their herds treated by Dr. Stevenson last March with Cooper's Warble Fly The . remaining two ers themselves in April and. May at 4 week intervals. From what' can be learned of the results from last week's visit the treatments have been very successful, although a few late warbles may still be appearing in the back of the cattle. Where such is the case these should be destroyed. It is hoped that next year the farmers on the island will be 100 per cent. for treatment. If this is the case the Department of Agricul "ture will probably be willing to co- operate fully in making a complete clean-up of this particular area., ° Those participating are Clarence Fralick, Russell Hood, Geo.

" What might have been a serious on 'Monday, when one of his good cows accidently fell into an old unused well, and went down about twelve feet with head up, and remained there most of the day before they finally got her out. Many willing men were on hand; but it was necessary to call in a passing gravel truck to raise the cow by the aid of a block and tackle. Apparently none the worse for her experiences, thought a bit stiffened up, the cow "mooed" to her companions as soon as she saw them. But to-day she is not so well. We hope she gets better again. We experienced the effects of a very wild windstorm here on Sunday after- noon, followed by a much needed rain and a little hail. = Fortunately the wind did not do much serious damage in this community.

A A ee GIRLS' SOFTBALL NOTES On the night of Saturday, June 10, the Blackstock girls' team visited our own "Red Sox" for the first game of the schedule, The season was form- ally opened by a team composed of M. Letcher, pitcher, B. Chapman, catcher, and F. Shepherd at bat, The winner of this battle royal being rather difficult to pick, the girls set- tled down in earnest. Seven hard innings completed the game--the score being 22-12 in favour of Port. The same evening, Brooklin played at Scugog and, after a tough game, defeated their team 26-20, Nothing daunted, Scugog visited Blackstock on Monday, June 12, and defeated them 20-6. A rather tough score, but the Blackstock girls proved themselves good sports and put up a real fight. On Tuesday, June 13, the Port team visited Brooklin, Oh! what a fall was there, my countrymen! It waswone of these touch-and-go games -- both on their toes' and ready to go. The Port girls led Brooklin right up to the last inning when Brooklin crept up and the game ended 22-21 in their favour. It sure is tough to be beaten by just one run! But, are we down- hearted? With that historic battle at Mount Albert to inspire us to noble efforts? I should say not! Anyway, it just goes to show what pep and en- thusiasm the girls put into their games. Just wait till Brooklin visits Port! And here's the schedule. Come on, everybody, turn out! + A thrill in every game! The Schedule 24--Blackstock at Brooklin. Port Perry at Scugog.
