It, is not too early to begin planningr'ffi"‘ the #all exhibit, and we would ask the people of Weston to encourage these“ boys and girls by visiting the gardens during the evenings when they are at work, encouraging them with a word of commendation on the results they. have achieved, and we are confident in stating this fact: The fall exhibit for 1925 will be equal to that # any "Lord, quench this furious flame, Arise, run, help; put out the flame." A yvisit to the community gardens in the various sections of the: town wills prove beth a delight and ~matter of, community interest in the progress beâ€" ‘irg made by the juvenile members of. our. Horticultural Society. Thes new gardens situated on Rosemount Ave., under the direct supervision . of, Mr. Pollett, are| of particular interest, as ,.this garden is a new venture, one hewn out of virgin soil, growing vegetables and thus become a producer and asâ€" set to the. community.

The bell was manufactured by Manâ€" erly and Company, (the West Troy, N.Y., and on the south side the folâ€" lowing inscription is inscribed: Manerly & Co., West Troy, N.Y., 1907 Weston Ont., Council, 1907,.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 22, 1925 HENRY DRAYTON PLANS CAMPAIGN IGOKE GONGIL REGULAR MEETING An carly morning visit, especially on the first threeâ€"named highways, will provide another interesting picture and. recently developed commodity, that of the city merchant and dweller going forth with‘ truck or motor car to seâ€" cure supplies of fresh fruit and vegeâ€" tables for the carrying on of his city trade, that of providing the housewife with the necessary supplies for the maintenance. of her. family. These markets having sprung up along the various highways, have answered two purposes, that of supplying the needs of the public, and that of creating a means of a market for their produce, and in this way providing better fruits at cheaper prices for the consumer at higher prices for the producer. Etobidoke, with its large lake frontâ€" age, forms the last Ink between the city and the Lake Shore line of many miles, partiecularly adapted to the deâ€" mands of the summer tourst, also serves as a distributing centre with its highway markets for the fruits and food commodities: ofâ€" many of her sduthern population of urban dwellers and those of the adjacent townships situated in a like manner. Thus the opening of the culvert conâ€" necting Queen . St. and Brown‘s Line will beâ€"one of service to a large maâ€" jority, help out the economic problems and provide ‘cheaper facilities for the handling of perishable foodstuffs and placing them in the homes at reasonâ€" able rates to the consumer, owing to the lessened market costs for the proâ€" ducer. the East and West, write The Cleveâ€" land and . Buffalo Transit Company, Cleveland, Ohio, e Encouraged with the success of the Bacon Hog Fair held in Flamboro Township in 1923, and three held in 1924 in the various centres, it has been decided by the committee to inâ€" crease the number this year to eight. Dates have been set as follows:â€"â€" Almonte, Sept. 16; Woodstock, Sept. 23; Millgrove, Oct. 6; Kitchener, Oct. 8; Stirling, Oct. 13; Colborne, Ort. 15; Stayner, Oct. 21; Milton, Oct. 27. The annual field day of the Boys‘ Pig Clubs Daily can be seen auto trucks, horse drawn or vehicles drawing, along these roads, loads of livestock, fruits, vegeâ€" tables, grain, milk, ete., the product of the farming communities and urban centres which they serve. s is to 29th. Colborne this week to complete the plans for the fair to be held there, at which at least 70 farmers were in atâ€" tendance. "One strong feature, we have found, is that the judges give their reasons to the crowd," said Mr. Pearsall. "People are interested not only in seeing which pig went up, but exactly why. Another is that all the market classes are sold and graded right on the grounds. This year we are trying a new scheme of sellingâ€" by sealed tender, the pigs going to the highest bidder and being loaded that same evening. At Woodstock for the first time the hog fair is to be held in eonjunction with the regular fall fair. The fair authorities have turnâ€" ed over one day to the bacon hog, toâ€" gether with the regular prize money, bringing the prize list up to $550. At Milton the Boys‘ Pig Clubs of Halton County are joining in. Elsewhere the plan followed will be substantially the same as employed last year at Stayâ€" nea, Milton and Flamboro." These highways all lead out into the most fertile sections of the province, covering industrial centres, agriculturâ€" al, dairy, gardening and fruit comntunâ€" fties. * 3 Display Real Interest Typical of the interest displayed in these fairs was the meeting held at Saturday afternoon was another noâ€" table day in the progress of Etobiâ€" coke Township, when Reeve T. A. C. Tier officially opened for traffic the culvert connecting Queen Street with Brown‘s Line. This completed the 5th highway leading into Toronto, Toronâ€" toâ€"Hamilton Highway, Queen St., Dunâ€" das St., Malton and Albion Road all having been converted into paved thorâ€" oughfares leading direct from the varâ€" ious districts into the heart of the great metropoliss with its markets, its warehouses and shipping facilities for distribution to outside points, and eapabilities for the handling of all kinds of produce.
