Thea Locknow- ]?e yrie'-Institn-te-i -De-eta-844e On Ah '!2nd and 23rd
has new entered on its third year.
Few instituti9ns of this this kind can
show a• more prosperous record than
the v1echaeics institute in this village.
'It has now considerably over one
hundred members, a first-class library.
and a comfortable reading room. The
directors have spared no pains to make
this institution meet the wants of are
iotE IIi;Ient pu.blic.• The greatest care.
has been exercised in procuring the
choicest literature for the library . auel-
reading room. Books on history,
biography, travels, fiction, etc., writ~en
by the best authors have been care-
fully selected. Oonuois,eurs pro-
nounce the selection one cif the hest in
the province, The reading rooni is
courfortalrly fitted up, and with its
choice current literature of , daily
paper:; illustrated papers, magazines,
etc., invites the public to conte in and
spend a part of the long winter even-'
ings reading that whicheducates and
.refines. I t is • earnestly hoped . the
people of Lucknow and 'surrounding
country will take advantage of this
of October we held an Institute m'''eting
at Holyrood which was well attended.
I will not go into detail as I • have
seen a fairly good account of the meet-
ing in the SENTINEL ; hut, thinking it
would bu of interest to your readers to
know who are faking an interest in the
work of our Institute, Igive the names
of all those that joined the Institue at
Holyrood, and while all the director;
-lent a helping handl inust thank Mr.
Henry Thompson in hi. untiring efforts
in urging farmers to become members
of the Institute. if our Institue did
nothing more ths,n to bring the farmers
togethe,,r• once in a while to discuss
matters pertaining to their occupation,
and discuss their grievances one„ to
another, it would accomplish •a •good,
work ; but I am certain that if the
farmers are true to themselves and live
up to the objects of the Institute that
we will yet. see a 'grand work done by
the Institute. Then, let us lend a
helping hand to those who are .willing•
to give some tlieir tiine in furthering;

appointed wood inspector he appointed.
who will furnish to every farmer a
certificate of the number of feet con-
tained in his lead of wood, for which
to receive payment, and also the
quality of the wood, whether No. 1
hest, Ni'. 2, or No. 3. All honest
farmers will • willingly agree to this:
They will merely have to get their pay
for the wood delivered, and need not
be at the trouble of piling it without
extra pay, but duinp it down as'quickly
as they can, leaving• the purchaser to
look after his purchase. At least ten
cents should he charged extra; and the
the load to know he has got fair play.
