Inspector Tom's Report
The total receipts from all t onraes
were $105,237, and the expenditures
$81,994, Government grants, $10,859.
There were 132 in the Inspectorate at
the end of 1907, 12 held first class ose-
tifioates, 58 bend seconds and 71 thirds.
In 1907 there were 35 men teaching at
an average salary of $506, and 94
women at an average of $112. There
were 58 man receiving au average of
$380 in 1897, and 75 women getting an
average of $261. The 24 regular teaoh-
ere is the urban sohoole at the close
of 1907 were all retained for 1908, but
36 of the 107 rural divisions changed
teaohers. New ! school 53otious were
formed at Belgt�frve and Centralia, and
substantial schools erected in eaoh vil-
lage. Most of; the school sections have
a neglected and untidy appearance.
Any school that provides and main-
tains a school garden,.meeting the pre-
scribed requirements, is entitled to an
initial grant of $100 and a subsequent
annual grant of $20 to be expended in
oaring for such gardens. The Trus-
tees cannot make a better investment
for their section than to provide a suit-
able Library. The Model Sohool4"have
done good work, the Modelites being a
credit to themselves and the County.
Inspector Robb's Report.
Of 89 teachers in the rural sohoole 23
are males and 66 females, or 3 to I.
This is a decrease of 4 males. In the
rural schools the male teacher will
soon disappear. As the urban schools
always employ female assistants, with
a male principal, there is neither in-
crease or diminution in these schools.
In the rural sohools there was 1 first
class, 38 second, and 50 third class teach-
ers employed. One third of the rural
sofiools changed teachers daring the
year. The average salaries paid rural
teachers in 1907 was $68.50 higher
than in 1906. The rural salaries for
1908 will show a decrease of about $35.
The present system of apportioning
the government grants does not help
those who really need help. For in-
stance, a school section in Tuokeramith
whose equalized assessed valve is
grant
$251,160, $132, While the weceived in akest school
section in MoKillop, assessed at $100,985'
received $27. The. same system is in
force for 1908. Daring the year 3 ex-
cellent briok schools were ereoted in
Union No. 11, Morris, McKillop and
Grey; S. S. No. 7 and No. 10 m.oKiliop.
They are a credit to the sections,
which are not strong. Two other new
Sohool houses should have been built
but tie the seotions are wealthy and
the people have built splendid residen-
ces, the ordinary taxes are so fiigh
that the trasteea say the people are
too poor to build new school houses.
Tho No. of pupils Enrolled Iu 1906 was
5357, in 1907 5077-a decrease bf about
800. The entire decrease for this In-
spectorate in 17 years ie 2153.

Roads and Bridges.
The Chairman of the R. & B. commit-
tee, reported that the Council had met
at the Holmesville bridge, and exam-
ined the same, together with the local-
ity of the proposed new bridge. The
committee recommended some repairs
to the old bridge, in case a new one is
not built this summer, and that the
new bridge, wheu built, be on the site
of the old. The engineer was author-
ized to sell the timber of the old Rath -
well bridge, in Stanley, but that no
further action be taken. Tnat no ac-
tion be taken towards the building of
a bridge over the Maitland, in West
Wawanosh: That no action be taken
in reference to Davvar's bridge, Stanley,
it never being legally a county bridge.
That all bridges requiring it, be baint-
ed. That the bridge built by Tucker -
smith and Stanley, be assumed by the
oonnty. That Rapson's bridge on the
base line between Hallett and Goderioh
township be taken over. That the
Eintail bridge be built this year, if
necessary.
Finance Committee.
The Finance Committee reported
that the total equalization amounted
to $42,501.400; the Treasurer's estlmat-
ed expenditnra amounts to $81,062 and
estimated receipts $8 809, leaving a bal-
ance of $72,252 to be provided for,
which will require a rate of 16.10 mills
on the dollar to be raised on the equal•
ized valve of all the property in the
county liable to'taxation.

Live Stock and Crops.
Lire stock furnishes the best and most
convenient means of marketing many
farm crops and byproducts. Without
live stock farmers in the corn and al-
falfa sections could not market their
crops. The cotton seed produced In
Mississippi contains more than $5,000,-
000 worth of fertilizer material, all of
which could be kept on the farm by,
feeding the meal and bulls to cattle. -

Synopsis of Canadian Northwest
Homestead Regulations.
Wingham General Hospital
During the spring of 1007 there were
purchased in the states of Maine, Ver-
mont, Massachusetts, Kentucky, Wis-
consin, North Dakota, Kansas and Col-
orado 2,778 packets of so called "com-
ing am en mission" vegetable seeds by the bureau
of plant industry. In the tests made
(Under Government inspection) the germination of many kinds of seed
was surprisingly low. The average
germination of 135 samples of carrot
seed tested was 45.4 per cent, of 141
samples of onion seed 45 per cent, of
331 samples of cabbage seed 40.8 per
cent, of 47 samples of pepper seed 33.7
For further information, per cent, of 35 samples of salsify seed,
27 natedpet cent, while of 69 samples of

.
Box 223, Wingham Ont. According to a Canadian fruit grow-
er, wood ashes make a good fertilizer
for currants with barnyard manure.
There is little danger of giving the
currant plantation too much fertilizer.
Unfortunately it is usually the other
way, this fruit being often very much
neglected.
As to the time required for peas to
become ready for use after planting
Country Gentleman says: On our own
grounds, for example, Nott's Excelsior,
a standard variety of peas, was ready
for picking in 1006 at sixty-five days
from planting, while in 1907, on the
same ground, we had to wait eighty-
three days for the first mess, This
should indicate how unsafe any exact
statement is. ..
One good sowing of parsley Is suffi-
cient for the season.
The garden soil should be allowed to
dry out well, so that it 1s mw'

flowing soggy ground will require
more labor in obtaluing a good, smooth
