The Annual Flower & Vegetable :iShow, under the auspices of the Wesâ€" ‘ on Horticultural Society, was held on Friday, Sept. 13, on the Fair grounds. â€"Exhibits were of an exceptionally high ‘order and the entries in all classes â€"were numerous. In the juvenile secâ€" ‘tion the vegetables grown from the s¢eds donated by the society last .afiring were excellent. One hundred â€"and thirtyâ€"three pupils of the Weston pablic and ‘separate schools signed for and received these seeds, and two _ hundred and seventyâ€"five entries were made in the different classes. Several _entries were recorded in the two specâ€" _ials, one going to the community garâ€" den workers and the other for the ‘home producers. In the general proâ€" ficiency class for the community workers four prizes were awarded. In this class the value of concentration, ~cultivation and weed eradication was very clearly demonstrated. In all _cases the plots receiving the most care ~during the entire season showed to adâ€" vantage, not only in appearance, but in quality and quantity of produce reâ€" ceived. Mr. Dockray of Toronto and Miss Yates of Port Credit acted as: judges on flowers and Mr. Long of the Rennie Seed Gardens on vegeâ€" tables. Considering the weather conâ€" «ditions of the few days prior to the exâ€" "hibition, the flowers in the senior deâ€" partments were exceedingly fresh. The artistic arrangement of the different _bouquets and the graceful designs used on the decorated table were equal to previous years. Miss Blackâ€" lock‘s annual display of fall perenâ€" nials was one of educational value along the line of fall blooms. Many people discovered that it was possible by careful planning of space and arâ€" rangement to have a perennial border, which would be a source of pleasure 4rom early spring till late fall. It was only a little camp fire, but it blackened .that beautiful spot; It was but a little match that burned the farmer‘s lot; It was only a cigarette, so the tourâ€" ists say; Another special feature Of the Exâ€" hibition was the display of flowers and vegetables put up for display only by Mrs. Adam. The arrangement of this was exceptionally fine and added maâ€" terially to the exhibit. WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 183TH &wa.s only & little spark, but you * and I had to pay. PUT IT OUTâ€"PUT IT OUT. HORTICULTURAL EXHILBIT AT WESTON FAIR GROUNDS WESTON LITTLE THINGS U. S. Forest. Service, PRICES \ The garden party under the ausâ€" pices of the young people connected with the Tomlinson Methodist Church held on Saturday last on the grounds of Mr. A. H. Parker, was a great sucâ€" cess. After the rainy days preceding the sun came out and the weather was ideal and very favorable. The work was well divided and carried out with great enthusiasm by the young folk. The gate was opened at four o‘clock and everything was in order for the reception of the guests. Mrs. W. Rowâ€" bottom, the secretary of the A. B. Class, and Mr. A. H. Parker, teacher of the A. B. C., took turns at the gate, and by the look of the tray were haulâ€" ing in the dimes. The first booth visâ€" ited was the cafeteria, where refreshâ€" ments were being served by Mrs. Walâ€" ter Handley, Mrs. James H. Allen, Miss Lucy Parker and Miss Edith Webb, and they were kept busy servâ€" ing out the eats. The next booth was the fish pond, and the fishing was good and was enjoyed by the kiddies especially. This was presidedâ€"over by Miss F. Adamson, Miss D. Webb, asâ€" sisted by Mr. J. West. Next booth along the Midway was another reâ€" freshment place, hot corn on the cob and (red) hot dogsâ€"were being served by Miss Allen and Mr. G. A. Crowâ€" hurst, which alsoâ€"received a fair share of patronage. The next booth was occupied on one side by the dealers of fancy goods made by the young ladies and offered for sale by Miss M. Reid and Miss A. Elford, who cleared out all their stock in good time with the best of reslts._On the other side were the vendors of candy and ice cream, and here the business was brisk. Miss M. Harris, Miss M. Rowbottom, Mrs. W. J. Tomlinson and Mr. J. A. Hewitt were in charge. In front this booth was a table of plants and cut flowers, looked after by Miss W. Crowhurst, who endeavored to have everybody tagged with a bouquet (and she did it too). Further on Mr. Wesley Crowâ€" hurst was stationed with the Aires Ball Amusement, who received a good share of nickels and did not have to give out many prizes. Arjoining this was the "Old Aunt Sal" game and this was the centre of attraction, as everyâ€" body wished to try their skill n throwâ€" ing the balls, and many were the skhouts of iaughter as the balls were thrown, ofttimes very wide of the tarâ€" get.â€" This was under the care of Mr. Kenneth Parker. The total proceeds of the afternoon and evening amountâ€" ed to $130.59. After meeting expenses the young people expect to havey nearâ€" ly $100 for patriotic purposes. In the evening the grounds were illuminated with many electric lights, put up by Mr. A. Crowhurst, which gave a very pleasing effect to the grounds and booths. A musical program was proâ€" vided by the committee, Miss W. and Mr. A. Crowhurst. Solos were renâ€" dered in good style by Miss Taylor, and Miss Attwell, Toronto; violin soâ€" los by Miss Ellins, Lambton Mills; cello solo by Mr. Paul Haun, Toronto; recitations by Miss Quinn, Toronto, and Miss A. Reid, Lambton Road. Mr. Crowhurst presided and introducâ€" ed the performers. A very pleasant time was spent by all. Once on a time an oak tree stood Serene, and brave, and high; It reared its strength within the wood, Uplifted the sky. But hands of men, with axe and saw, Brought low its giant pride, And with a groan of zr@g : = it fell to earth, and died. Out of its timber human hands Fashioned two things apart; Out of the oak they tore and rent The centre of its heart. And from one part a cradle grew, And by the hearth it stood; And mother love was centred there And all heaven saidâ€"‘twas good. But from another part was made A. bar for a saloon, And over it men spent their years, And bartered life‘s great boon. The soul that in the cradle grew Nourished by mother‘s blood, Over the bar its heaven lost, And broke the heart of God! Rey. Mr. Paul, Chairman of Toronto West District, was out at the Tomâ€" linson Methodist Church last Wednesâ€" day evening and presided over _ the official board meeting. Arrangements were made as to finding a suitable supply for the work and it was arâ€" ranged that a united service be held on Sunday afternoon. A special proâ€" gram will be given by the school. Mr. G. Rowbottom was appointed treasâ€" urer. 1073 Fordson tractors have been purchased and distributed in the varâ€" ious sections this year under the diâ€" rection â€"of the Canada Food Board.

Owing to the two rooms of the public school being held in the high school building, the salary of the high school caretaker was increased $12.50 per month on account of the additionâ€" al work involved. This amount is to be charged to the public school acâ€" counts.s All outstanding bills were passed for payment and the meeting adjourned. It wasâ€"decided that no tuition fees would be charged this year for chilâ€" dren of the returned soldiers attendâ€" ing either the public or high school. The secretary was instructed to write the clerk of Toronto to the effect that city children would be charged the same rate of entrance fee to attend Weston â€"Righ school as nonâ€"resident pupils were charged. The, board of management were emâ€" powered to engage a school nurse to inspect the pupils of the public school. The appointment of Miss M. McFarâ€" lane as primary and first book teachâ€" er in the Weston public school _ was confirmed. The report of the finance committee,for 1918 and 1919 was adopted. Trustees Prof. Wade, D. Campbell, Jas. Cameron and J. R. Dennis were appointed a committee to deal with the matter of an agricultural course being taken up in the high school and to report later. WESTON BOARD OF The Weston Board of Education met on September â€"3rd in the council chamber with the following membersâ€" present: Messrs. Banks, Campbell, Caâ€" mron, Flynn, Goulding, Harris, Hearn, Rowntree, Wade,. Rev. Jones, and J. R. Dennis in the chair. The minutes of the previous meetâ€" ing were read and confirmed.

This land will yield $85,000 in produce. This represents about oneâ€"fifth of the total acreage under garden cultivation in Toronto this year. , _ WAR RECIPES Buckwheat Gems Wheatless Rolls â€"_ _ possibly live up to that obligation is by going withâ€" out in order that our soldiers may have. For the money we waste is not money at allâ€"it is equipment, clothing, shot and shell that are urâ€" gently needed in France. By denying ourselves, thereâ€" fore, we enable Canada to procure to the fullest extent the materials and labor which she and our Allies need for the successful prosecution of the war. __ What happens when we fail to saverP A pull on labor by the Governâ€" ment in one direction and a pull on labor by the people in the opposite direction. "Either the civilian popuâ€" ‘ lation must go short of many things to which it is accustomed in times of peace or our armies must go short of munitions and other things indispensable to them." NOW the only way we can For the sake of your country and the boys "over there," spend cautiously. Think of what Lord Kitchener has said, and ask yourself first, "Is this something I really need or can I do without it?" At the last meeting of the Etobiâ€" coke council instructions were given to have all the necessary arrangeâ€" ments made to hold a tax sale in Etobicoke. It was pointed out that there is over $9000.00 due to the township from this source. If you are in arrears, now is the time to pay up. It will save you a lot of money and bother if you do so at once.* It was decided at this meeting also that the tax collectior would be continâ€" xed as usual th‘s year. It was noted that if the tixes \vere collected by the treasure?,then the township would pay out the extra in postage. Etobi= coke is a large township to cover, and it is impossible for one man to deliver all the notices. Efforts are being made to have the Hydro lights extended to the different parts of the township. Several applications were passed on with the recommendation that they be installed as soon as it is possible to do so. Mr. Streight gave to the township the deed for the small strip of land of his corner at the old homestead. This makes it possible for the street to have a good turn at this point, it also eliminates a dangerous corner. With the railway tracks so close, it was hard to make the turn. Now it will be much easier. A grant of $25 was given to the Long Branch rateâ€" payers for their annual fall fair. The matter of the appointing of a constaâ€" ble for the district was out of the jurisdiction of the council. . Allâ€"felt that it was an unnecessary expense to appoint another road commissionâ€" er when the present representative was giving such good service. Appliâ€" cation was made to Lt.â€"Governor to have the boundary line on the Burnâ€" hamthorpe Road and Dundas Street defined. There. has been a lot of controversy . over tlgfs corner. This will settle the whole} mater and give the town improvemex}xt sociy a chance to hav it kept as it should pz _ _ Gold is being mined at a depth of more than 3,000 feet in South Africa, and it is believed that the shafts can be sunk 3,000 feet deeper. Among the winners at the Toronto Exhibition were John Gardhouse & Sons. They had 11 head at the show and won five first, T second, three fourth and two fifth prizes. Also they won the junior herd, breeders‘ herd and herd of four calves. This was a most remarkable showing for our fellow townsman. J. M. Gardhouse also brought great honor to the town in the winning of the Weston Shield. This is one of the greatest prizes in the horse world. His boys made a name for themselyes in the judging competitions, There were many other very fine wins that place the product of this part of the county on a very high pinacle. Published under the authority of the Minister of Finance of Canada WESTON TO THE FRONT ETOBICOKE COUNCIL WHETHER it be food, coal, wool, steel, leather, labor or transportation, the result in all cases is the same. Whoever competes with the nation by freely satisfying his own desires, selfishly approâ€" priates to his own use that which is so urgently required for our fighting men in France. y Hundreds of millions of dollars are of no use to the country if goods and services can be secured only to the extent of eighty millions of dollars. So we must do everyâ€" thing in our power to release both goods and labor for the purposes for which Canada needs them. * 5 2nd and 3rdâ€"Best two animals of one cow.
