Busii Fires In Ontario

(By The Canadian Press)

The fierce glow of bush fires to- night lit the skies in a dozen arcas of central and eastern Oah- BCIRI. and clouds of gray smoke billowed above flames whichslash- co through valuable stands oi green timber.

'I‘ired, grimy firefighters raised their faces to the moire-darkened heavens in an effort to spot blue- black rainclouds which would spell an end to their struggle against the leaping yellow flames and the stiff wind which drove the crack- ling fire through tinder-dry un- derbrush-but in most sections they looked in vain.

Local showers fell in the Port Arthur district in northwestern Ontario and rain- was forecast for New Brunswick. Elsewhere no end oi the three-week-long dry spell was 1n sight. -

Bulldozers were praised forthel part in the fight against a 5.000- acrc bush fire 1n the Mississauga forest 60 miles north of Blind River. Ont. Thomas E. Cassldy. chief forest ranger at Blind River. said that the big blaze in his territory had riot once crossedba furrow ripped up by the lg "cats." Cassldy said the Mississauga fire . lng "held" at the Wenebagon River but still is out of control. Another Algoma district outbreak is reported at Spragge.

Half a. dozen big blazes were out of control in the Parry Sound district where 454 men fought 31 fires 1n all. Two large fires in Mriichedash township were being “held" and five others were under control.

‘Ikvwnstiip roads around 'I‘im- mlns, Ont. were open-ed to per- mit berry pickers to go into the bitsh but five townships remained closed. Rangers continued to Da- trol roads leading into the five forbidden townships and they had orders to charge anyone who tried to evade them.

in the last week of unrestricted travel in the Tlmmins district. l7 fires were started. Blueberry pick- ers and fishermen were believed rcsiaonsibla for almost all the out- hrcuks. Since the ban was im- posed Aug. 2 there have been no new fires in the district.

six new fires have broken out in the Sudburv district of north- ern Ontario since Wednesday 8nd about 20 others are belniZ P111191" led.

The use oi ocmane uABl fertilizers as a supple- ment to barnyard manure plays an important role in any soil building program. but from the standpoint oi establishing humus 811d Organic matter in our light sandy soils. livestock residues are becoming more and more essential. Farmers were urged to keep an open eye on these farms where livestock was looked upon as a source of replenishment of those scil maintaining ingredients re- quiring crop production. In any stable soil building program. the speaker pointed out, the use of barnyard manure was most essen- tial in providing a. home for the countless number oi bacteria and organisms. and at the same time render the soil capable of holding a greater percentage oi moisture. and better constituted to with- stand long periods oi drought.

Mr. S. C. Wright. Agricultural Representative. Provincial Depart- ment of Agriculture. scored a ma- ture Guernsey cow. and pointed out the desirable and undesirable features looked for in dairy tyrpe cattle. The speaker further point- ed out in contrast. those features desired in the beef breed. A dis- cussion followed in which a num- ber of farmers took an active part.

Swine Production

Mr. H. W. Clay. Senior livestock Fieldman. Dominion Production Service. stressed the need of out- door management in any building program. The speaker emphasized the need of range and pasturage in keeping brood sows in n healthy condition. pointing out the importance of sunlight in providing vitamin D. and the pro- vislon oi minerals by sods for iii- suring a healthy litter. Some of the best breeding stock in Canada is produced in this province which also has a reputation of produc- ing the highest percentage of grade hogs marketed throughout the Dominion. Farmers were urg- ed to exercise greater care in the weighing of hogs before shipping 1n order to realize the greatest possible returns.

Successful Field 0r. Bonnell Gives" liay Al Alliston Eloquent Sermon At m

104th Anniversary

I On Sunday afternoon. Aug. 4th. a very large congr aticn was ‘present at St. Dav d’s United Church, Georgetown. when the Rev. Dr. J. Sutherland Bonnell of Fifth Avenue PresbyterianChurcb. ‘New York, was the preacher. 8t ‘David's. which is commemorating its One hundred and fourth anni- ,versary, was delighted to welcome visitors from far and near who .had come to sit at the feet of this ‘widely-known minister.

The service was characterized by hearty congregational singing ‘and deep devo on and was geri- erously favored by two helpful solos by Mrs. Hubley oi Boston.

Dr. Bonnell took as his theme the words addressed by the Mes- ter to the rich young rider: “One thing thou laekest." Aa many fine qualities in him were overshad- owed by love oi gold so all so often it is some one sin which mars man-y a life. ‘Hie preacher urged all to have the courage to say "p0" to the temptations to participate in social drinking and gave grave warning as to the tel‘- rible nemesis which follows pro- miscuous sexual relations. Therm! to deal with a bad past was. by divine grace. to get a worthy fut- ure out of it. ‘

Tribute was paid to the fine contribution which was being riiad-c by the rural communities and small tovms to the exacting demands of great cities and an appeal was made to “hold the line" of moral and spiritual val- ues. Next Sunday there will be a special service at Si. David's at 11 tam, and 7.30 cm. (AIITJ With the Rev. s. .1. Boyce preaching in the morning and the Rev. D. M. Sinclair. former overseas naval chaplain. delivering the sennon in the evening.
