1N MEMORIAM MRS JOSEPH MATHESON.

There passed peacefully away at her home Oysterbed Bridge. on May 4th 1928 Mrs. Joseph Matheson aged 71 years. Deceased had always en- Joyed excellent. health, until within n. few months previous to her- death but. her condition was not considered serious till a few weeks before the end came. All that medical skill and tender nursing could do, was of no avail and on above mentioned date. her gentle spirit winged its home

the community looses altruly Christ- ian woman. A kind neighbour, a true friend, and in times oi’ sick- ness and trouble a ministering angel. In times of necessity. "Aunt Cas- ic" as she was familiarly called was even ready and willing to ren- der first. aid, in her cheerful and unassuming manner. It can be truly said_ol' her “she pened her mouth with wldsom. and in her heart was the law of kind- ness. Her children also rise up and call her blessed. In the home, she is most sadly missed where she was a kind and loving wife, and a wise and lender mother. and one who "looked well to the ways of her household." Besides her many relatives and friends, she leaves to mourn, her TGlTOWlIlB husband and five daugh- 'ers. two sons having predeceased herlier little son Roland who died infancy, and "Fred" adopted son who gave his life in the Greaa. War. The daughters are viz. Mrs. Milton Rnckham .Wheat.ley River, Mrs. Iohn A. MacDonald Bradalbane, Misses Eva. and Hazel at home, ind Miss Cora R. N. who arrived from Sask. to nurse her mother, in her last illness. Her surviving broth- ?rs are Messrs. Benj and Charles Matheson, Oysterbed Bridge and the only surviving sister is lVliss Suss- anna. Matheson, Milton. The funeral which took place May 6th was largely attended. Ser- vice at the house and grave was conducted by Rev. R..- H. Stavert. The pallbearers were all nephews

TURNIPB T0 GROW‘

Sir.—In a recent issue oi your paper knowing that “The Guardian covers the Island like the Dew". I pointed out. to the farmers that Haszard Improved turnips were tho most desirable to grow ‘for export. My conclusion was based on experi- ence as defined in lzhat letter. It took segeral years for our farmers to detennlne the proper potato t0 grow and to realize what the con- sumer demanded. It was with a. view to shortening this period of uncer- tainty that my experience regard- ing turnips was published. ‘

The Minister oi Agriculture with his apparently limited knowledge o! marketing, advises otherwise, but. he might well suggest to the farm- ers that they grow something other than turnips on land not suitable for Haszard Impro'ved, somethlnl; they could make a profit on. Thele certainly is no market for anything

Ward fllsht- in turnips other than the best. Mrs. Matheson was wide and 1 um‘ sir, em, - favourably known. In her passing J, STANLEY WEDLOCK.

MRS. JOHN McEACHERN.

There passed away at Newport on April 28, after a. short illness. Mary Anne, beloved wife of the late John McEachem, in the 85th year of her life. Despite medical aid and the untlrlng efforts of her devoted fam- ily and kind friends. she peacefully passed away to her heavenly home, there to enjoy the fruits of a long and well spent. life. She was attend- ed during her illness by her pastor. Rev. C. J. McDonald, who adminis- tered to her the last. rites of the Holy Catholic Church. Mrs. Mc- Eachern was a mother and woman in every sense of the words. Her ﬁrst: care was her home and family. and the way she performed the du- tiesathat devolve upon a wife and mother is plainly shown to those mourning for her that prudent counsel and dutiful care have not been in vain. She always observed the rules of her faith with the greatest care and this coupled with her great purity of heart. her un- selfishness and piety left an examplc worthy of imitation. Her memory will be long cherished by all who had the pleasure of her acquaintance. her kindness, charity, and generosi- ty will not soon be forgotten. A large concourse of people came t( see her mortal remains and to assist at. the Requiem High Mass sung i7 St. George's church on Wcdnerdn, May 2nd, by Rev. C. J. McDonald after which she was laid to rest in the family plot. She leaves to mourn two daughters, Mrs. Peter McAskill. Newport. and Mrs. »Wm. Campbell New Brunswick; also three sons, Dr Jack, of Winnipeg, Hughie at home. and Mike, of Denver, Col, who ar- rived home i.n time for the funeral. May her soul rest in peace.
