Aberystwyth Rural Council
Aberystwyth Rural Council VACANT SURVEYORSHIP. Monday, Mr. William James presiding. On the proposition of the Chairman, the Council adopted a vote of sympathy with the relatives of Mr. Morgan Edwards, road surveyor for the southern district. The Chairman said Mr. Edwards had rendered good service and the members had often been instructed by his racy reports.—Mr. Daniel Jenkins seconded the proposition, which was agreed to unanimously, the members upstanding.—On the Council pro- c-eding to consider procedure relative to the vacancy, the Clerk said originally there were four districts and four surveyors; subsequently reduced to three.—Mr. A. Williams proposed that thre surveyors should be continued.—Mr. David James, Penllwyn, proposed that two surveyors should carry on the work.—Mr. David James, Penrllyncoch, said that would not result in.- any financial gain, while its effect on the efficiency of the work would be questionable.— Mr. R. Ll Lewis said it would he practically impossible for the presen t. officials to tackle further work.—The proposal of Mr. David James as to two surveyors was withdrawn, and the Council decided to adveitise the vacancy, applications to -be made by the next meeting. It was decided to support the appeal for exemption of two roadmn who had been called up—Mr. R. TJ. Lewis said it was now prac- tically impossible to replace men. Mr. D. Davies. surveyor, had been unable to fill np 0!1 vi-anw in his district in the past twelve months. The Clerk said he had received the draft agreement relating to Borth Water supply from Mr. R.

HINTS FOR ALLOTMENTI HOLDERS.I
HINTS FOR ALLOTMENT I HOLDERS. By SPADE-WORKER. KEEP THE PESTS IN CHECK. This is the season at which the various pests of the allotment are most troublesome. For the moment the cabbage root fly is particularly prevalent. You plant out a. healthy lot of seedling cabbages, or sprouts, or savoys, expecting them to make rapid progress, and in the course of a week or two you find that some of them are losing their leaves and wilting; if the affected plants arc taken up it will be seen that the roots are attacked by the small grubs of the cabbage root fly. Various means of prevent- ing damage by this pest have been de- scribed in this column, but the simplest plan of all is to obtain a 3in. square of cardboard, with a slit reading to the centre, and press it flat on the soil, the btem of the plant in the slit. Even with- out using tar or other stuff, this will pre- vent the fly laying eggs near the roots. If the leaves of parsnips and celery show brown patches, pinch them off and burn them there are small leaf-mining maggots within the disfigured parts, and if not de- stroyed they quickly ruin the whole leaf. Attention to this detail now will save trouble later on. PLANTING WINTER GREENS. Success in gardening depends very largely upon the observance of small details, and it is because of this that the professional excels the amateur. Take, for example, the pLtiltillg of gieens, which is now being done on all allotments. The. incorrect way is I shown in the accompanying sketch. Having made a hole with the dibber, so many amateurs put in the seedling and press the soil closely round the stem of the plant, thus leaving the roots in space. I How Not to Plant Greene. I The correct way is to press the soil to the roots by inserting the dibber in a slanting I direction. This rule holds good in all plant- ing—make the soil firm about the roots. and leave it comparatively loose near the surface. The dry weather has made the planting of greens rather difficult. The best plan is to soak them with water the day before transplanting, and when replant- ing to dip the roots in a puddle of clay and water. If possible, take advantage of showery weatner for planting greens; then they become established at once. SPRAYING POTATOES. The work of spraying can only be done conveniently by means of a spraying machine, which is carried across the shoul- ders, beii:g commonly used. Burgundy mixture is made with copper sulphate, washing soda and water, and the approxi- mate quantity requiiei for spraying a 10- rod plot is lb. sulphate of copper, lib. washing soda, and eight gallons of water. The copper s ulpha to is first dissolved in one gallon of water in a wooden vessel capable of holding fight gallons. The soda is dis- solved in one g;iion of water in another vessel, and thU solution is added to the first-named, th? in xture being stirred vigo- rously. Six gallons of water are then added. It is as w !l to remember that the copper sulphate solution is poisonous. Spray the lower as w^i! "S the upper leaf surface of the potatoes. There is no needtto spray eirly varieties, for they are ready to dig before the disease is to be feared. PRIZE-WINNING HINT. Here is a iwfal sug^est:on from Mr. Holies, to whom a prize of "Garden Work for Every Dav" is awarded. It brings to n' tice a simple contrivance by means of which marrows and other plants can be kept moist without trouble. A bucket of water and an old stocking only are re- I An Automatic Watering Pot. I quired. The bucket is placed on a higher level than the plant, and the stocking is I suspended over the side. If the end of the stocking is kept in the water, and the water level is higher than the other end of the stocking, a continual drip of water will be maintained. I PRIZE COMPETITION FOR ALLOT- MENT HOLDERS. I Every week two prizes are offered for the bt.t allotment hint or recipe. The prizes consist of useful gardening books. All en- tries for this competition must lie addressed "Spadeworker," care of Editor of this paper. ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. .W. G.—If these fertilisers in the dry form come in contact with foliage they are likely to injure it, but when used in such a dilute form there is no danger. A. J. C.—You can make gord use of potato haulm (providing it is not diseased) by burying it in the soil whenever any trenching or deep digging is done. Or yeti can dig a hole 18in. deit) and several feet square, and put the potato haulm and all other green garden refuse in the hole. If household slops and soapsids are thrown in, and an occasional sprinkling of soot and salt is given, there wiil in a few inctitli.s be a valuable compost heap which can be used in winter instead of manure.

Aberystwyth Food Committee.
Aberystwyth Food Com- mittee. PRESERVING BUTTER. Aberystwyth Food Committee met on Monday, Mr. David James, Penrhyncoch, presiding. The Executive Officer (Mr. James Hughes) read a letter from the Divisional Food Officer stating that it had been decided to permit farmers to preserve butter ior winter use either for orders, or individual customers, or for genera! sale. It was, however, necessmy to have a permit from the Local Food Committee.—Mr. D. W. Lewis inquired whether a farmer who preberved butter now would get the present price when the butter was sold in winter?—Mr. LI. Lewis took it that the winter price would operate in winter, the probability being that it. would be higher than the present price.—Mr. T. Jones said he knew farmers who were selling butter at Is. 6d. a pound, and that was done last winter.—In reply to Mr. J. Bunce Morgan, Mrs Evans, Talybont said the local retail price was 2s. 2d.—On the proposition of Mr. David Jones it was decided to notify farmers by advertise- ment of the necessity of obtaining permits to preserve butter.

He invited the Committee to take proceedings. —The Committee decided to ask the seller to attend 'the next meeting to be censured if the charge was substantiated. The Executive Officer said the District Auditor expressed his approval of the manner in which the accounts were kept. The total expenditure was E154 14s. 4J,d., £81 14s. lOd. of which would be repaid by the local food authorities.—Mr. R. 1.1. Lewis asked if the Auditor was satisfied with the low total spent? (Laughter).—Mr. James Hughes: Possibly he would be inclined to approve of a little more. (Laughter). The sum named included salaries, advertisements, station- ery, etc.—The Chairman: Possibly the Auditor might feel inclined to increase the fees of members. (Laughter).

He-b wenhieithio dim gellir dywedyd fod y wlad i gyd yn gofidio o golli Arglwydd Rhon- dda, a chaed tystiolaeth gyflawn o hynny oddiwrth bob plaid a dosbarth fel ei gilydd. Cydnebydd pawb ua bu neb o'n blaenwyr yn fwy llwyddiannys nag efe. Gwyddai ef pan ymgymerodd a'r gwaith o ddogni ein bwyd, a gwyddem ninnau i gyd, ei fod yn ymgymryd a'r gwaith mwyaf anodd posibl a bod pob Dognydd Bwyd yn y gwledydd craill wedi methu'n druenus a'r bob! yn anfoddog o'r herwydd. Eithr arall a fu hanes Arglwydd Rhondda, a thrwy ddefnyddio ei allu di- hafal, ei gydymdeimlad a'r werin-bobl, a'i sel dros gyfiawnder i bawb, llwyddodd v tu hwnt i bob disgwyiiad, a gwelsom ninnau'r cymylau oedd yn cyllym grynhoi flwyddyn a rhagor yn ol yn graddol chwalu dracliefn. Cadwodd y wlad rhag dioddefaint newyn, a liviiny trwy ymroi i ddisgyblu'r bobl i gynhilo ymliob rhyw fodd. Bu farw a'i waith mwyaf wedi ei gyf- lawni a'i holl gynliunion yn mynd rhagddynt i yn esmwyth a di-drwst, ac nid yw' n, n fod cenedl gyfan yn uno mewn teyrnged iddo. Syl- weddola pawb yn awr faint y perygl a tu'r wlad ynddo y llynedd, a gwyddom i gyd mai trwy iafur drud Arglwydd Rhondda y mae cvstal arnom heddyw ag y mae. Fe'i citddwyd ddydd Sadwrn yn erw dawel Llanwern, ond fe erys y coffa am dano yn annwyl yn y u lad am flynyddau lawer, a'i enw yn amlwg dros fyth yn hanes ei wlad. DYGWYL RHYDDID. Diwrnod mawr yr Unol Daleithau yw Dvg- wy1 Rhyddid ar y pedwerydd dydd o Orffennaf, ac fe'i dathlwyd eleni gyda mwy o frwdfrydedd nag arfer. Yn wir yr odd baneri yn chwifio hyd yn oed yn y mwyaf f o drefi Prydain Fawr, a phawb yn dang s llawenydd vn y ffaith fod pobl rydd yr America yn ryd-ymladd a ni dros hawliau rhyddid a .iliyfiawnder ar feysydd Ewrop heddyw. Oyhoeddwyd yn swyddogol, yr wythnos ddiweddaf, fod y Taleithau eisoes wedi anfon i Ffrainc dros filiwn o filwyr. Anfonwyd ym mis Mehefin yn unig yn agos iawn i dri chan mi,iwn a dywedir fod y niftf- yn graddol gynliyddu bob mis o'r newydd. Pan gofiwn fod y nwyafrif o'r mil- wyr Americanaidd yn Ffrainc v edi tidthio, ar gyfartaledd, ryw bedair mil o filltiroedd cyn cyrt-aedd yno, a bod pob portbladd ar arfordir America yn dair mil o filltiroedd oddiwrth y porthladd agosaf yn Ffrainc, nid ;'l1.odd yw i ni Sylwerldoli pa mor fawr yw'n y vodraeth dros lwybrau'r mor, er cymaint yw ymyrraeth y suddlongau. Bu adeg pan oedd pvjnder llorgau yn achosi pryder nid bychan i'r Cynghreiriaid, ac eto i gyd yr ydyin wedi llwyddo, trwy ddygn weithio a dyfalbarhad, i gludo'r holl fil- wyr hyn drosodd heb deim.o'r eflaith onid ych- ydig iawn mewn cyfeiriadau eraill. Mae dylan- wad y Taleithau, erbyn hyn, i'w deimlo yn amlwg iawn yn y meysydd brwydro yn Ffrainc a'r gelyn wedi cael cylleusterau i wybod mai gwag i gyd oedd y sylwadau ffrostgar a wnaed yn eu cylch yn Senedd yr Almaen beth amser yn ol. PENBLETH YR ALMAEN. Y mae'n wybyddus erbyn hyn fod yr araith a wnaed yn y Reichstag yr wythnos o'r blaen, yn awgrymu y posiblrwydd i'r rhyfel barhau am flwyddyn eto ac y buasai'n rhaid wrth ryw ychydig o gyflafareddu cyn y gellid gobeithio am heddwch gwirioneddol, wedi cael sel cymer- adwyaeth y Caiser cyn ei thraddodi. Mae'n amlwg, felly, fod biaenwvr yr Almaen mewn cryn benbleth ynghylch y dyfodol, ac inai'r llanw Americanaidd sy'n gyfrifol i raddau hel- aeth am y penbleth hwnnw. Cwestiwn mawr y swyddogion milwrol yn y wlad honno yw pen- derfynu p'run fydd oreu: mentro eu cwbl yn awr ar unwaith mewn ymosodiad, neu ynteu grynhoi eu holl adnoddau a chryfhau eu ham- ddiffynfeydd ar gvfer. nerth cvnhyddol y Cynghreiriaid yn y dyfodol. Mae methiant Awstria yn erbyn yr Eidal wedi cymysgu llawer ar eu cynllunion, a cheir pob arwyddion hefyd nad yw eu gwaith yn Rwsia eto yn agos wedi ei orffen a bod cryn lawer o bervgl yn eu bygwth yn y dyfodol. Nid yw'n syn yn y byd, felly, fod yr Almaen yn oedi ar v meysydd gor- llewillol, eithr mae'n ddtgon dichonadwy, ac lud yw mewn unrhyw ffordd yn annhebyg, y cychwynnir ymosodiad arall eto ar fyrder. Mae'r oediad, o'r hyn Heiaf, o help mawr i ni, a diau fod ein harweinwyr milwrol yn man- teisio'n briodo] arno i gryfhau tin llinellau am- ddiffyn ac i gwblhau y trefniadau angen- rheidiol. Y GALW AM FILWYR. Cafwyd gweld yn bur amlwg oddiwrth y dra- fodaeth a fu yn y Senedd yr wythnos ddi- weddaf fod y sefyllfa filwrol yn dal o hyd yn bur amheus a bod galw mawr am ddynion i chwyddo'n rhengoedd. Ar ol ymosodiadau trymion yr Almaen, ddechreu'r haf, penderfyn- odd y Llywodraeth i alw deng mil ar hugain o b.ith y gweithwyr amaethyddol. Galwyd am nifer arbennig o bob sir, ac mewn amryw ach- osion aed a nifer sylweddol o'r ffermydd cyn diwedd Mehefin. Mae'n liysbys i bawb am y cyffro a achoswyd trwy'r wlad oblegyd hyn, ac fel canlyniad addawodd yr awdurdodau i ddi- ddymu'r rhybuddion a anfonwyd i'r gweithwyr amaethyddol ar ol y chweched ar hugain o Fehefin. Wrth gwrs anhawster mawr yr am- aethwyr yw dwyn y cynhaeafau i ddiogelwch, ond dywed yr awdurdodau drachefn fod y mater yn gwestiwn o ddewis rhwng dau ddrwg: rhwng y perygl o golli llawer o'r cyn- haeaf a'r perygl o golii tir a dvnion ar y meysydd brwydro. Mae'n wir i'r Llywodraeth ym Mehefin, 1917, benderfynu nad oedd y sawl oedd y pryd hwnnw yn defnyddio eu holl amser ar amaethyddiaeth i'w galw i fyny heb ganiatad y Pwyllgorau Amaethyddol Sirol, eithr dywed yr awdurdodau yn awr fod yr amgylch- iadau yn wahanol iawn a bod yn rhaid i'r fy(ldin wrth y dynion hynny sy'n ddigon cryf a iach o gorff i gyfarfod a gofynion bywyd milwr. Mae'r Llywodraeth vn awr wedi rhoi addewid nad oes rhagor i'w galw i fyny nes bo'r cynhaeaf drosodd.

JAberystwyth District Education…
Aberystwyth District Education Committee. SINGULAR LETTER FROM THE SANITARY COMMITTEE. Aberystwyth District Education Committee met on Monday; present Mr. Percy Wilkinson, chairman; the Rev. T Mason Jones, Messrs. R. J. R. Loxdale, Henry Bonsall, Dr. James, Peter Jones, Robert Ellis, Captain Doughton, William Evans, Jenkin E Evans, Richard Evans, T. J. Morgan Miss Tremaine, C. M. Williams, Richard J Evans, and D. C. Roberts; Jenkin James, direc-r tor; G. Dickens Lewis, architect; and D. A. Lloyd and Alban Lewis, attendance officers. The percentage of attendance for June in, Aberystwyth Borough Division was 93.1, last year corresponding month, 94.6; winner of banner, Alexandra-road Girls, 95.9; North Rheidol Division (Group 2), 88.6, last year 87.8; (Group 3), 86.3, last year, 80.4; winners of banner, Aberffrwd, 92.5, and Borth Council, 91.8. South Rheidol Division (Group 4), 88.3, last year '87.1; (Group 5), 90.0, last year 88.9; winners of banner, Gors, 94.5, and Llanilar, 96.6.—The Rev. T. Mason Jones said that one headmaster had adopted a plan of helping attendance by presenting a banner to the class with the best attendance, which caused children to take all interest in the matter and to enquire of absent children why they did not attend.—The Chair- man thought that anything that created esprit de corps a good thing. He not-fed that lf;st week during the hay harvest the attendance was better than usual, which did not look as if children were called on to help in the hay harvest.—It was pointed out that the return was for the month ot June.—The Chairman hoped the attendance officers would not be satisfied with attendances of 80 and 82; 90 was the lowest attendance the Committee could do with. The Director read a letter from Aberystwyth Rural Sanitary Committee saying the CoiIl- mittee was quite prepared to have all schools within its area disinfected once a year on con. dition that the Education Committee bore expense.—The Chairman said the Rural Council was the sanitary authority, and if there was any danger of infection he thought it the Coin* mittee's duty to take steps to stop it.—Mr. C. M. Williams thought if the Committee was not legally bound to disinfect schools it was morally bound to do it. Aberystwyth Council under- took that work as well as other things without requiring the Education Committee to repay, though Aberystwyth now paid 1;2,500 to the education rates of the county. The Rural Council did not seem prepared to find water for the schools or to disinfect, though it oug:lt to do it in the interest of the health of its own district. Schools were closed owing to ness, and the Rural Council took no action.- It was agreed to ask Mr. Evan Evans, clerk to the County Council (who was present) to advise on the legal aspect of the question. Mr. C. M. Williams brought up the reP°5i of Aberystwyth Managers .which recommended that Penparke Church School should be writtOO to with reference to the unsatisfactory condj' tion of the offices, and the report was adopted* Mr. Jenkin E. Evans brought up the report Talybont District Managers, which stated tha there had been no wat3r at Rhydypennau Sclio<> for a fortnight.—The report was adopted. j Mr. Loxdale brought up the report 0 Group 5 Managers which stated that f1* parents were ordered to attend regard to irregular attendance, but on*? one attended, and it was resolved that the five parents should be written to that their children attended regularly next m°n' proceedings would be taken. It was agreed 0 write to Chancery Council Schcol calling atteo, tion to the very unsatisfactory report of t» cleanliness of the school and offices.—The repo was adopted. The Chairman said he had now to go otws through*Smithfield-road and found that b«twee I half-past one and two numerous footb» matches were going on in the street. It w quite an unpleasant experience to walk throug the street. He thought that there should some control.-Mr. O. M. Willltm though that applied more particularly to Mondays a suggested that Mr. Saer should be asked ts s it on Mondays—The Chairman thought it about the same on Tuesdays. As a matter f law football should not be allowed on the i—The Director said the fact-%as there w 270 boys in the school and the playground too small. _—————————
