COUNTY ROAD SYSTEM
In conneotion with the proposed
County road system, the mileage will to
430 miles, apportioned in and on the
boundary lines of the township as
follows :—
Ashfiald....30 miles Morrie 28 miles
Colborne...20 miles Stanley 26 miles
Godorigh. , .25 miles Stephen80 miles
Grey 82 miles Tnok'Smith28 miles.

iiowlek....36 miles Usborne.. •28 miles
Bullett.....40 miles E Waw'neh20miles
McKillop,30 miles W Wa'nsh 20 miles
For sheersntellectual capaoity it is
doubtful if Mr, McKay leas a peer in the
legislature. It he so chooses he can
make a great career for himself in this
province and again make the Liberal
party as powerful as it was in the days
of Mowat. He need not look for an
immediate call to power, but there is as
good work to be done in opposition as
oan be done in office, Upon the whole
the Whitney government has been pro-
gressive and public-spirited, but there
are loose joints in its armour, and it
will beall the better for the vigilant
criticism of a strong and energetic op-
position.—Toronto News.

LOCAL NEWS.
Mr. A. Wright's town dray has been
purchased and is now run by Mr. Porter,
formerly of Lindon.
Mr. R. Elliott, proprietor of the TIDIES,
expects to tate up his residence in
Wingham early in Maroh,
We are pleased to hear of the oon.
tinned success in the west of a former
Winghimite, Mr. Jos. Young, of Plum
Creek,
The T srnberry Boundary LinecLiter-
ary Society have secured from Mr. A.
Ross a very handsome library of ohoioe
books.
The following roads are to form the
trunk lines of the proposed system:
Lake shore, from Bayfield to Amber:ey
northern gravel road, from Dunlop,
via Darlow to Luoknow Carlow, via
Manchester to Whiteohnrch; London
road, from the southerly boundary of
Usborne, northerly via Clinton, Blyth.
and Wingham; to the boundary of
Heron and Bruce in Turnberry, North
gravel road from Seaforth to Wroxeter
and easterly along con. 8 and 9 Howlett,
to the east boundary line. Huron road
from Goderioh to Dublin, Township
boundary line from Btyth corporation,
eastward to the east boundary of Mo-
Killop. That in the interval the reeves
of the respective townships will con-
sider the matter of designating spur
lines to make out the balance of the
mileage in their respective munioipal-
ities. That the representatives of the
incorporated towns and villages will
consider the matter of designating the
leading streets therein, with a view of
co-operating herein.
The Montreal Star, in common with
many other outside newspapers, express-
es wonder and surprise at those men
who mix, politics with municipal matters
and says: —
Of. all stupidities, about the greatest
is that of running municipal elections on
party lines. Issues which have nothing
whatever to do with the capacity of 'a
man to make a good alderman or a wor-
thy mayor, decide -who shall be elected
to these positions; and the citizens who
belong to one of the political pieties are
confronted at the City Hall by the spec-
teole of a hostile government in office.
More than that, municipal patronage is
distributed with a view to affecting Pro-
vincial and Federal elections; and the
laying of a street pavement is made to
play a part in the seating or a Govern-
ment at Ottawa.

Itis safe to remember that fowls must
have fresh air to breathe or their combs
will turn pale and their strength and
productiveness will be diminished. If
the roosts are at the back of the pen and
the windows in front, plenty of sir can

Give them plenty of corn once a day
and a mash made of equal parts 6t
ground oats, cornmeal and wheat bran
and half a part of beef serape, mixed
with milk twioe a day. This will make
them fat in ten days or two weeks if
they are healthy and free from lice.
When you build nestsmake them
large enough to be comfortable, but not
deep enough so that the hens will break
the eggs therein by jumping down upon
them when about to lay. It is advisable
to place the nests where the hens can
reach them without overexerting them.

provide a slanting board with cleats mi-

PICKING FRUIT.
It Should Not Re Allowed to Get Ter
Ripe on the Tree.
Many growers do not know the prop.
er time to pick fruit—that is, the stage
of maturity that puts it on the market
in good couditicn. Very often one
sees fine large pears and peaches that
`are rotting when the packages are
opened because the fruit has been al.
lowed to get too ripe on the tree be-
fore picking..
Sometimes when the early market Is
slack there is a demand for immature
fruit for cooking purposes: -
The Early Apples.
The first early summer apples i1mT"
be profitably picked when they get
big enough for cooking. This wm
be when the seeds are still whits
and before the fruit shows signs
of coloring. The market is Owen
looking forward to the earliest apples.
Dessert and winter apples should not
be picked until well colored. Those
that stay on the tree late are bolter�
flavored than those picked early. Win-
ter apples will usually keep better W
allowed to ripen in the cool weather�
of the fall. The ease with which .sows
fruit separates from the twig by a nip
sidewise gives a good idea of maturity
Apples should not be separated frame
the twig by a straight pull, but by a
twist upward or sidewise.
Peaches For Market.
Peaches are picked for market wheat
they show the clear, bright colors.;
They should not be punched to test;
maturity. The experienced picker base
a way of rolling the flat of his hand;
over the ridge of a peach, and the feell
means the same to him as grain in 'Milll
sack does to the miller's hand.— W. NJ

hinty or forty chicks as soon as they are

from a dry goods box four feet lenge;
three feet wide and three feet high.
The front and bottom are removed.
Two strips are nailed perpendicular as
the front corner, projecting a foot be-
low the bottom of the box. This raises
the front and gives the roof the neces-
sary pitch when facing a downhill go -

We move this coop twice a week,
and it is always clean and fresh. The
open front and bottom seem a little'
risky, considering the possibility of
wandering cats, rats: or weasels. But
we are willing to run some risks if
we can fill our own and customers•,

stock. This one plat has enabled u&

Aid to Fruit Growers.
Perhaps the greatest aid to success- •
ful fruit production today is co-opera-
tion. Many small lots Of good fruit
are sacrificed In the wholesale market
of our large cities because they aro'
lost sight of in the great bulk of stuff;
arriving. Large consignments receive
consideration that is scarcely worth
while to give to a few odd boxes or
packages. It would be a great advan-
tage in shipping if the growers at one
point could co-operate' and send their
fruit not as small individual consign-
ments, but as car lots. Commis -slow
merchants are glad to come to the;
growers and buy at the:railroad if they
can buy from a company, society or
exchange, but they haF a not the time'
to hunt up growers to buy small lots-;
An association' of growers can employl
an age±tt to keep in telegraphic toue.ht
with market prices, while few individ-
ual growers can. An association can'
secure uniform grades of fruit and caul
do a large business under a known,
brand. Baskets and fertilizers can be'
obtained by shipping associations at
wholesale prices. Cars, rates and con
cessions can be obtained from the rail -4
roads by an association that no single• see
individual could hope to receive.• --
