As a NEw ERA. representative was re-
turning from Goderich on Friday; he oyer -
took a farmer who was walking home, and
who resides not a great distance from the
county town. After other; conversation,
the inquiry was made "where you make
your market ?"
"In: Clinton,' every time," replied' the
farmer.
'"Residing so near-Goderieh, how is it
you go to Clinton Y" was asked.
"Well;" he continued, "I can always do
better in Clinton ; I've tried both places
and find Clinton five, cents a. bushel -bet-
ter, and that's the' inducement, Besides,
I can send my smallest boy there witb..a;
load and I can' rely on his getting '.the
highest' price and full:weight.• That's
why,I go to Clinton. And I'd 'a been
better off if I'd gone to Clinton -more."
The experience of this farmer, in years.
past, ae have no doubt, is the experience.
of scores of others.

INcIPns1'r Finn.—One day this week.
a circumstance" occurred at McLaren's
Hotel, which was fortunate in being 'ac-
companied by DO serious results. A lady
who; had been out in the rain took off her
circular, and throwing itover a- chair near.
a stove in a sitting room, went into an-
other part of the house for a few moments.
During her absence the circular took fire,
and thepresence of something burning
ledto an investigation, when the room
was found'tobe in a blaze, the chair and
circular being entirely destroyed. The
fire was rut out before it succeeded in
doing fe, her damage.
SOME bh ns.--This.has:been an unusual.
year for the production of honey and the
increase of bees, the Messrs. 'Ridont, in
this town, being able to surpass .anything
in the "bee line” in this neigliLorhood.:
They started the year with six hives,
which have increased duringthe year:; to,
nearly forty.; This increaseissomething
marvellous, and might not •again occur.
for years. Of course all this large number
have not been honey -producers this year,
but they have, nevertheless, taken about
one thousand pounds of honey from the
hives. Should the bees, weather the
winter all right; they will next yearpro-
duce most likely over,, ten thousand
pounds of honey.
