Luoknow, January 20th, 1897 FREE SAMPLES FOR FARMERS. E1oo. Sidney Fisher hes instructed that the distribution to farmers of 3 lb. bags of grain sarcples shall Fe continued this year, and Director Sanders has requested the SENTINEL to so inform its many thousands of farm- er readers. The object in view in this distribu- tion is to add to the prothictiver,ess and improve. the quality of these important agricultural . prod acts throughout the country by placing within reach of every farmer pure seed of the most, vigorous and pro- ductive sorts, This work has, in the past, met with much appreciatian and a considerable degree of succees. Ow- ing to the large number of applica- tions .now received it is not practic- able to send more than one sample to each applicant. But with this limi- tation it ie hoped that the stock availeble will be sufficient to permit of every farmer, who so desires, shar- ing in the benefits of this useful branch of the vrork of the experi- mental farms. • The distribution consists of some of the most promising sorts of oats, barley, spring wheat, peas, field corn and potatoes. Requette for sample& may be tent to the Central Experi niental Farm, Ottawa, at any time. before March 1, but after that date the lists Will be closed so that the applicetions then on hand may be filed before seeding beiins. All com- munications will be sent free of post - Nei It issdesirable that each appli- cent should name the variety which ie desires to teat, also .one or two al- ternative sorts, in case the stock of the sort chosen should be exhausted ; while no promise can be made that the variety asked for will be sent, the wishes of correspondent:, will be attend 41 to as far as practicable. The samples of grain will be sent early, but potatoes cannot be distributed until the &auger of injury in transit, by frost, is ovcm•. FIFTY PER CENT. DECLARED LOYAL ORANGE LODGE NTO.428.

Death of Mr. Barbour There died at the residence of his len Mr. Archie Barbour in this village, on Saturday last, Mr. Robert Barbour, ar old and respected resident of this sectien. Deceased had reached the ripe old age of 73 years, and his funeral on Monday last, despite the stormy weather was largely attended The remains were interred in the St. Helens cemetery. Big Dividonds In Lake of tho Woods Property The Directors of the Gulden Gate Miaing Campany, of the Lake of the Woods district, met on the 22nd inst., and at it a dividend of 50 per cent. on paid up stock was declared. This is the first of the more recently, sorganized companies to pay a div- idenp and its success will doubtless encourage mining in thu Lake of the Woods. The capitalization of the com- pany is e300,000 but of this only about $200,000 worth of stook has been sold. ' The profit was made, n in actual mining, but in the develop- ment and sale of a property. About six months ago the company started work on 208 P location. A good deal of ore was taken out and a por- tion of it treated at the reduction works at Rat Portage, a brick of $2,000 being the result. This location was recently sold to Mr. Laycock, of London, England. The purchase money was used to buy three other claims, McA 46, on Splice Point, D 233 and L 1. After paying for these pro perties and expenses, enough was left to make the 50 per cent. dividend. — Toronto Globe. . - A FORMER LUCKNOINiTE Toronto, Jan. 23rd, 1897.

C. T. 13. in the Broadway Hall of this cit z on the evening of the 15th, at which I had the extreme pleasure of witnessieg the triumph of Miss Kato Murdoch in carrying off the medal in competition with some of Toronto's amateurs elocutionists. Her Many Lucknow friends will epilireciate this honor, as I do, when they learn the facts. Miss Murdoch attended the meeting entirely unpre- pared and without any intention of competing, until persuaded by some of her friends. She complied more from the wish to please them than for any personal aggrandizement. After the judging committee had awarded Miss Murdoch the medal, the chairman in his presentation speech complimented her very highly on her achievement. Mr. Editor, I am sure that the citi- zen& of Lucknow will feel this an honor which touches themselves, and be pleased to acid Miss Murdoch's name to the roll of those who have done honor to their native town when abroad. Card of Thanks I bog leave to take this opportunity ot thanking the friends whose prompt, kind and energetic assistance enabled me to put out the fire which caught in my house on • Wednesday morning, thereby averting what might have been to me a serious loss. Grateful! r yours, C. STEWART. Horses Wanted Mr. B. Aubry, the noted Montreal horse -buyer, will be at the McGarry House, on Saturday, January 30th., 1897, to buy good sound horses.

W. lodges in Canada. Each one of these will send a deligate to the Grand Lodge of Can- ada, which will meet in Toronto on Feb. 19.th next It is anticipated that there will be a seperation of this lodge Jrom the Supreme Lodge of the United States, which at present has jurisdict- ion over the entire American continent. The death rate in the United States has been so much greater, relatively, than in Canada, that the Grand Lodge here has been paying out more than it would epay were it a separrte body, hence the anticipation of a separ- ation. All the lodges have been not- ified of the extreme importance of the ooming convention. Passed Away There passed away at his residence in this village, on Monday morning last, an old pioneer of this part of the province in the person of Mr. John Mallough, from blood poisoning, the resu't of a small scratch on the leg, received some two weeks ago. De- ceased was in the 78th year of his age, and nearly half a century ago settled in the township of West Wawanosh, and hewed out for himself a home among the then almost unbroken forest. He was a man of itidustrious habits and had accumulated a large share of this world's goods, and at his deaeh was reputed to be among the wealthiest men in this part of the country. Some ten :or:twelve years ago he removed with his family to Lucknow, where he has since lived a quiet retired life, en- joying the fruits and comforts of his frugality and industry. He leaves a widow and grown up family of sons and daughters to mourn his loss.

Rutherford, which occurred on the llth inst., the managemeht of the Detroit college of medicine re- ceived numerous applications for the vacant position. However the studeets made short work of the matter by unanimously declaring in favor of his brother, Dr. H. Rutherford, of this place—even going so far as to say that they would not attend lectures if any other appointmebt was made. The result was that Dr Rutherford secured the position for this year, and we congratulate our friend on being placed in absolute control of the fitest veterinery college in the United States. He has reached the top round of the ladder of veterinery fame. Two years ago the doctor graduated with honors and carried away the gold medal from the college he now manages. Since thst time he has lectured on various subjects,for which he has twice received honarary scientific degrees and dip- lomas from duly chartered colleges.— eikayne Review.
