They deciared violence would not be countenanced by the organization, and that so far as they knew no mail trains had been interfered with. L. M. Hawver, president of the District Council, speaking of responâ€" sibility for the strike, said the rank and file had demanded a strike, deâ€" spite the wishes of their Grand Lodge President, and that the men were determined to remain on strike until their demands for eightyâ€"five cents an hour for mechanics and sixty cents for helpers had been granted. Reports are coming in from all over the County. of. York. relative . to the big yields and pigger prices being paid for the alsike seed and it looks as though the farmers who were forâ€" tunate enough last year to seed down largely with this crop will reap a goldâ€" en harvest. From nine acres of alâ€" sike one farmer near Hagerman‘s Corâ€" ners in Markham Township will get about seventy bushels, for which he has been offered at least $21 a bushel. Another man has threshed enough to bring him in $2000 and has some more to thresh. As high as $22 is being paid, the highest price by long odds ever quoted on a Canadian market. With hogs at $22 and up, who would not be a tiller of the soil? » wHO WOULD NOT BE Use the water in which potatoes have been boiled to freshen a silk dress.

HUMBER RIVER MARRIAGES A CANADIAN FARMER DEATHS WHEAT COMMISSION Crommabnes at by BW Weture Many an active farmer, man of business and professional gentleman, interested in progressive agriculture and improved methods of farming have visited the splendidly equipped farm of Mr. Gordon Gooderham durâ€" ing the past ten years. No more inâ€" terested company ever assembled there than the one which was attractâ€" ed on Wednesday by the announceâ€" ment ‘of a demonstration of : Ford tractors and implements by the Motor Sales and Machinery Co. of Port Credâ€" it.. No fewer than 30 motors conâ€" veyed. visitors from a distance who joined with the nearby farmers in folâ€" lowing the tests. On Mr. Gooderâ€" ham‘s farm are two Fordson tractors, one in use during the past two years and one usedâ€"since lastâ€"spring, both working perfectly. The field in which the test was made had not been plowed for 14 years. This, with the long dry weather, made the soil very hard, but in spite of these conâ€" ditions, the implements demonstrated without a hitch. Ten acres were plowâ€" ed, part of which were also cultivated and passed over by the seeder. The implements demonstrated . were the Amsco seeding and fertilizing drill, Roderick dise harrow, No. T. Oliver traco packer or pulverizer, No. 7 Oliâ€" ver adjustable gang plow. : During the day the representatives of the Motor Sales Machinery Co: of Port Credit, who arranged the demâ€" onstration and paid all the cost, was asked by the Cleveland Tractor repreâ€" sentative, who had already appeared on the ground without appointment, if he would agree to a demonstration of Cleveland tractors. Consent was given. Those present decided that the Fordson eclipsed the Cleveland under same load and soil conditions. The complete Fordson unit costs $46 less than the Cleveland tractor alone. Mr. Gooderham permitted his 10 year old son to drive the Fordson tractor in the contest with the Cleveland tracâ€" tor and won out. His own words were; "One feature I like about Fordson tractors is that even a child can operâ€" ate them." Mr. Garnbham, of Port Credit, served refreshments and did such a thriving business that his stock was completely exhausted. Great praise is given to the Motor Sales and Machiney Co. for the inforâ€" mation furnished. Mrs. Robert Agnew, of Acton, 84 years of age, fell and fractured her left thigh while out calling on a neighâ€" bor. Another demonstration will take place on the farm of Manning Dohâ€" erty on Second Line East, on Monâ€" day next. At the conclusion of the test one Amso seeder was sold to Mr. Gooderâ€" ham, and many good prospects reâ€" ceived from other interested farmers. s 3 Bo TRACTOR DEMONSTRATION Afternoon and Evening Saturday, August 16th BIG DRAWING CONTESTâ€"1st Prize, one new Touring Chevrolet Car, 1919 Model, with all improvements.
