AT the, opening of the new smeltzer ley Premier Tics at Midland, George Drummond pointed out, that Canada is wising over 800,000 tons net of iron year- ly, and up to the present she has only been producing 100,000 tons yearly. The r7.isadvautage iron -making in Ontario labors under is the want of coal, but the heir deposits are so good that the indus- try is likely- to develop here to the extent of the local market. It is to Nova Scotia, and Iater to British Columbia, where they have the coal and the iron together, that we must look for our ex- port iron and steel trade, which is full of promise. TETE Bruce county house of refuge const, as it now stands, $28,457.10. De- ducting the government grant of $4000 mud the premium of $1160 on the sale of debentures, the net cost to the county `would be $23,297.16. As to the cost of maintenance, during the year 1899 there 'was pain out for supplies the sum of C.3, 7 38. i 5. For the first eleven months of 1900, that is up to November 30th, this sum. amounted to $2,611.63. It may 'be estimated, for the sake of a calcula- tiou, that the cost during the present month of December will be $500. So that the total cost for supplies during 1899 and:1900 will each the sum of 46,850.38 or a yearly average of $3425.19. Dividing this by 62, we get the weekly average cost to be $65.86.

Jimmy had lived in Manitoba for 18' years and during that time tasted liquor only four times till within three mouths of his death, since which time it was given him by the doc- tor's advice. That was a long draught for poor old Jimmy.—Tho first child born in Culross is said to have been I, Angus McKiggan who was born on the 4th con., in Feb: 1855. --The first oat- r, meal made in Culross was made by Jno. Campbell on lot 8, con 6. The oats were toasted in a sugar kettle, ground , in Brown's hill and sifted through a sieve made of deer skin with the hair shaved off and turned over a white ash ism.
