LE OareAniksr, says Thomas Mc-
Greevy and his family are in New
York, and will probably not return to
Canada any more, his capital being_
invested in the United States, That's
corning ,the Eno dodge to perfection,
and adding insult to injury. He not
only purloins the hard' ,earned,pennies
of the pubic, but brazenly and cruelly
invests them in - a foreign state.
Possiblyhe had an eye to business
previous to the recent investigation.,
THE Ontario Bureau of Industries
has issued, ia crop bulletin, which,
briefly summarized, makes the follow-
ing forecast :—Fall wheat, a very fine
yield, estimated to reach 20,800,000
bushels, as compared with 14,300,000
last year. Spring wheat above he
average ; yield, 9,000,000 bushels, as
against 7,600,000 last year. Barley a
good crop. •Oats good. Peas excep-
tionally good. Hay and , clover
unusually light. Small fruits an
abundant yield. •

near Inverhuron, in Bruce Township.
There he as known as Boss Gray,
and there he carried on extensive

two hundred acres, and built a great
