La Grippe
Dr. Bryce, secretary' of the Provin-
cial Board of Health, has issued a
circular to. the public explaining the
cause, origin, pathology, general symp-
toms and measures for the limitation
of La Grippe. ` The three forms of the
disease are : (a) Nervous—character-
ized by great depression and severe
pains in the head, spine and muscles;
(b) Catarrhal --marked by congestion
o f mucous membrane of nose, " throat
.a rid chest ; (c) Gastric— especially
s een in children and marked by vomit-
ing, diarrhoea, etc. Isolation as far
as possible, clean and well ventilated
houses, avoidance of exposure, fatigue,
unwholesome food and excessive use
of alcoholic liquors are the best pre-
ventatives. The, disease is infectious
fromerson to person and the greatest
care in. the use of , handkerchiefs,
and towels, etc., is necessary.

village will be held on Sunday next,
when °Conductor W. K. Snider will
preach both morning and evening
Conductor Snider is a powerful preach-
er and on his. two former visits to
Lucknow thechurch was crowded to
the doors.
Lively Times •
The splendid sleighing of. the past
week has created a general boom in
business and large quantities of grain,
wood, saw logs, etc. are being brought
into the village. There is nothing
like .good sleighing to make things
lively and if the weather 'only contin-
ues.favorable for a month or so longer
the villageand surrounding conntry
will be greatly benefitted.
Increased Representatives
The county of Bruce will have an
increased representation of three at
the opening session of her County
Council on Tuesday, Jan. 26th. This,
increase is..due to Saugeen having 500
municipal voters,, which entitles her
to a deputy -reeve, whilst Huron and
Kincardine townsips' contain`lrnough
voters .(1000) for municipal purposes
to send a second deputy -reeve as their
contingent to swell the numbers in the
County Parliament.
Interesting to Farmers
A novel ease of interest to farmers
was tried at Flesherton recently before
Judge . Creasor. According • tt the
ruling any person purchasing agricul-
tural machinery and paying for it
with anything but cash or notes is
responsible to the firm should the
agent become' a defaulter. The judge
held that the agent must be paid the
wherewith to settle with the employ-
ers. Thus the giving . of horses; • etc.,
in part payment for machinery is a
risky transaction unless the agent is
known to be reliable. •
Tug -of --War-- .. ...
Mr. R. McLennan, of Chicago, was
in the village this week trying to
arrange for a grand tug-of-war tourna-
ment to be held in . the ' Caledonian
Half here some time during the latter
part of January or the early part of
,February. It is intended. to . have
teams from Kincardine, Ripley, Kin -
tail, Wingham, Lucknow' and Kinloss
•td take part in the contest, and for
which three large money purses will
be offered. The draw will be conduct-
ed similar to the great international
contests recently held in Nev, York,
and Chicago.
Died in Goderich
His many friends in this vicinity
will be sorry to learn of the death of
Mr. • Wm. McLean which took place
at Goderich On Saturday last. Mr.
McLean was one of the most extensive
and widely- known cattle buyers in
this part of the Province, and by his
straight -forward and upright dealings
was universally respected, and his
death will be a greatloss to the farm-
ing community generally. He was
originally a man of strong constitu-
tion, but for some years past he suf.'
fered a great deal with. Bright's
'disease and which finally terminated
in his death. The funeral took place
on Tuesday last and was very largely
attended.. -
Plant Catalogue "'
Yesterday we received the most
handsome catalogue of seeds, bulbs,
plants, etc., ever sent out in America,
from the well-known Canadian firm of.
The , Steele Bros. Co., Toronto, The
immense business success of this enter-
prising ,house is wonderful. They
attribute it to the high grade^of seeds
they supply—coupled with business
energy and care. For '92 they offer
Campbell's white chaff wheat, az great
yielder, Early Gothland, and Golden
Giant oats, three new Ootatoes, and
the wonderful Prizetaker onion, beside
an endless array of novelties in flowers,
Stanley's Wash Tub, Spider Lilies,
Air Plant, Sword Fern, etc. They
make a special offer to mail two Chin-
ese Sacred Lilies (to plant in water
now), value 40c., and their grand new
catalogue, with 477 illustrations, value
20c., all foo only 25c. Farmers, gard-
eners and -amateurs should ail tend
for them at once.
—The Liberals of East Bruce are
endeavoring to have the Hon. Wilfrid
Laurier address a meeting at Walker-
ton doming the present month in the
interests of Mr. Truax.
Sudden Death
press that. Mrs. Chambers, of Loc-
halsh, wife of Mr. Hugh Chambers,
Deputy -Reeve of Ashfield, died very
suddenly on Wednesday evening last.
The sympathy of the whole community
will go out to ' Mr. Chambers in •his
sudden and severe bereavement.
The Wardenship •
To far as we can learn some eight
or ten candidates have already
definately announced themselves as in
the field for ,the W`ardenship of the
county of Bruce, and the chances are
favorable for a big fight for the honor.
In Huron county the name of Mr.
Joseph Griffin, the worthy reeve of
Ashfield, is -prominently mentioned as
the coming Warden, and his many
friends in this section would be
pleased to see him elected to that
offiee.
Died From Typhoid
Ernest Melcolmson, of Goderich;`
and brother of lawyer P. Malcolmson,
.of this village, died' in Goderich on
Saturday last, from typhoid fever,
after an illnese of'some three weeks.
Deceased returned from Buffalo suffer-
ing from typhoid, and so severe was
the attack that from the first but
little `Nhope was entertained for his
recovery. He was a young man highly
esteemed and his death is universally
regretted by all who knew him.

of last .week at noon, whereby a fine
young ,man named Wm: Hood, aged
25 years, lost his leg. Ho was a
brakesman on the Grand Trunk, and
slipped. on the icy rail whilst uncoup-

over his left :eg near the thigh, of
course, crushing it to a pulp. With
great presence of mind he dragged

came up. He was immediately - --
removed to the residence of Mr.
Cochrane, the section foreman, • where

Arton, of Paisley, and Sinclair, of

man sank under the injury, and died

spoken of, and belonged to a very

THE TIME •FOE POSH RAISING.
The Live Stock Journal again calls
the attention of the 'farmers to the
wisdom of getting their pork ready for
the market at some period of the year
other than during October, November.
and December months. In a bulletin
issued . by the Guelph Experiment
Station in March of the present year,
it is stated that at the commencement
of the experiment, June 17th, 1890,
prime animals brought $5.25 per one
hundred pounds live weight, that at
the close of the experimental proper,.
October 8th, they were worth . $4.60,
and at the close of the after -experi-
ment, November 17th, they were sold
for $4.10 per hundred. The difference,,
therefore, between the market value.
on June 17th and October 8th, respect-
ively, was 35c. perhundred, and the
difference m the sams on June 19th,.
