In fall wheat the prospects aro that the total produce will fall below the average, and the production per acre will also fall somewhat below the average. Tho average of spring wheat bas also diuhiuished, but while taking the Pro- vince as a whole, the spring wheat crop is not altogether satisfactory.. The pro- ductioa will be in slight excess of 1502. The barley crop will no a little late, and will be quite a bit under the average in quantity, but unless unfavorable weather occurs during July it will be fully up to or above the averago in qual- ity. The yield of oats is expected to be above the averago weather permitting.

(Dundas Banner) The Toronto Empire keeps boasting of the increase in exports.and tries to make the farmers believe, in spite of the evi- dence of their own senses, that they aro well off and should be contented, and that the country is in a state of bounding prosperity. The exports may double, yet if the farmers get only a little over half for their produce what they got be- fore it does not prove that they are pros- perous. According to the Empire's way of arguing, 82,000,000 worth of wheat exported at 50 cents a bushel would not only sound bigger but would prove greater prosperity than 51,000,000 worth at 81 a bushel. The fact is that it is not simply the volume of exports that ono must judge by, but the value. All the figures in the world will not convince the farmers that they are prosperous with wheat at 65 cents a bushel and barley at 40 cents.•` 0. Toulperauce--Messrs.

Malone, of Torouto, in his animal address said that during the year 160 aspirants and affiliates bad been received into the Tem- pters. The report of the Deputy -Grand Master, E. E. Sheppard, of Torouto, showed that the preceptories in the Province of Quebec are iu good working order. Those in New 13runswick were much stronger and more prosperous. The preceptories in Nova Scotia bad not been so aggressive because I they rau away, throwing they felt they had been neglected by the Sovereign Great Priory and did not enter- tain too high a respect for that body. At Port Arthur, Wiuoipeg and Victoria., B. C., the deputy grand master had met with a good reception. and he spoke hope- fully of these preceptories. The following officers of the • Grand Priory were elected.: Grand Master, E. E. Shepard, Torouto ; deputy grand, R. W. Crookshauk, St. John, N. B.; grand than• celor, D.

The boy, who was about fifteen years of age, was driving a team at a manure bee on the farm of Mr. John McLeod, just across the road from bis owu home. He had taken a load of manure lo the field and while returning with the empty wagou dowu a little in- cline, one of the loose boards of the box slipped forward and struck against the horses: This frightened the animals and the boy between the front wheel and the bolster of the wagon. The back of his head was badly crushed, and one of his arms which was caught iu the hounds was broken in five different places,-aud death resulted iu a few minutes utter the accident. Mr. Mc- Leod, the lather of the unfortunate boy, was in Algoma et the time and only reach- ed home a few inotneuts before the funer- al started on its sad niissiou to the Kinloss cemetery ou Saturday uftornoou, The parents and Mende have the sympathy cf of all iu their rad bereavement.

Jennie has been writing for Primary (3rd Class) examination. The papers for 3rd and 2nd's were very easy this year, es- pecially the Algebra and Arithmetic, which were not as difficult as the Public School Leaving, in our estimation. Alex. McLeod was in Mount Forest on the 12th to see "King William.” Attend- ing to business is only of minor import- ance with the "Dr." when his "would like to be bettar half" was going. Wonder if his "spread" was called into requisition during the journey. "Dr." says he oat run the whole show now himself un- molested since that pedagogue went away.

She was quite uuassumiugin her manner, never boasted of what she had done at school, but when the examination was ever Willa Frith's Dante stood well at the top. A The sad event occurred about 11 o'clock. Mr. James Frith, who is a bee faucier cif more than local reputation, was extracting seine honey from one of the hives, while his daughter Willa was picking berries in a gurden near by. All the bees were on the wing and more or lees angered, when one of them. flew into the girl's face. Willa was fighting it off with her hand, when her father called to her to run iuto the house. In a moment the be.e had stung her ou the right temple near the eye, and Willa, ter- ribly frightened and screaming, ran into the moth. As she passed her mother she said: "Olh, ma, I'm stung, and I cannot live." These were the last words the poor child uttered. Throwing herself down on a sofa she wits seized with convulsions, and in fifteen minutes elle was dead. She was in her 15th year. 41/11•04111100111/1111,11111111141110~1111 • A POOR MAN indeed is he whose blood is poor, who• has lost his appetite and his flesh and seems to be in a rapid de. cline 1 but SCOTT'S ULSION Of Pure Norwegian Cod Liver 011 and Hypophosphites can make it rich again by restoring appetite, flesh and rich blood, and so giving him energy and perfect physical life, Cures Coughs, Colds, Consumption, Scrofula and Bronchitis.
