Peat in Canada

The experimental work conducted
by the Canadian Government in re-
gard to the manufacture of peat
proved so successful that there are
now two private concerns producing
peat, one at Alfred, Ontario, and the
other at Farnham, Quebec. 1t is
said that the peat manufactured by
the Canadian Government and used
by privatae persons Is satisfactory
for CRATES and also good for cooking.
The government commission, which
was sent to various European peal
using countries reported that the
most successful way to treat the peat
was to let the sun and wind evapo-
rate the moisture. After the govern
ment had shown the practicability oil

a salable price it was left to private
enterprise to continue the work. The

SUBMITS POLICEMEN
Mayor Engages Newark Officer

SUMMIT, April S.--There will be no
more kidnapping" cases in this place
Il Mayor Francis II. Bergen can pre-
vent them. The Mayor believes that
an ounce OF instruction for the Sum-
NIT police officers on how to handle
their arms is worth many a dismissal
from the force, so he has arranged
for shooting classes" in which Sum-
mits officers will learn to protect
themselves.
The Mayor requested Major Charles
II. Grant, of this place. to act as in
structor for the men, but the major
is too busy, so he has made arrange
ments with Captain William Fl.
STICKY, commander of the mounted
police force of Newark, to give the
necessary instructions. Target prac-
tise will be taken up soon in one of
the armories of Newark. Captain
STICKY has obtained the permission of
Chief of Police Michael T. Long, of
Newark, for the use of the arms in
the armories.

FARMERS SHORT COURSE
TO Be HELD HERE
Agricultural Extension Division win
Conduct ! One Week
Course.

information has reached ua thru O..
Neraal, instructor Of agkic "a
the local public schools that az axm-3
ers, Short Course is being arranged,
and at this time is a cure thing for
Marshall county. The time has as
yet not been decided upon, but it is
desired that it be held the first part
of March. This course is conducted
by the Agricultural Extension Diyi-
sion, which furnishes all supplies and
instructors. The only requirements on
the town are that in locality where
no short course has been held in,
former years a petition must be sign
ed by rs men and 40 women, the town
must provide rooms for each line of
work, stables and feed for live stock,
drayage and supplies. These expenses
have already been met by an appro-
priation Of SIS from the local Com
mercial club, in addition to this the
farmers clubs may contribute when
called upon.
The course extends over period of
five days during which various phases
of community interests are covered.
Not all phases can be touched upon in
SO limited a time, so the time is spent
in studying subjects closely related to
farming and farm home making.
Arrangements have been made for
rooms and Mr.. Neraal has been sue
cessful in obtaining some very good
quarters. The Court Room will be
used as the general assembly hall; a
room in the basement of the court
house will be used for Domestic Sci
ence or Home Economics. The City
Hall will be made into a Grain and
Corn Judging room and the Warren
Auto company's garage will be turn
ed into stock judging pavilion.
A great deal Of interest ought to be
manifested in course Of this nature,
it will be five days Of enjoyment as
well as Of education. All exhibits
are brought from the College Of Ag-
riculture and thus of high order.
The course is open to all men and wo-
men who can attend and it is to be
hoped that many will avail them
selves Of this opportunity.
