lesson.
Even back in the long ago Staffa
was significant enough a village to
be named on certain mays.
And in its heyday in the 70’s and
80’s, one of the most important
personages was the doctor, Archi
bald MacTavish.
His rank we place above that of
the rector or the minister because
his services could not so easily be dis
pensed with as that of those worth
ies, and this not alone because he
held “fate and physic” in his hands.
His years outstanding with the
people gave him precedence as the
general, and as it were, official, as
sociate, adviser, comforter and their
friend; of the preacher, the tavern
keeper, the weaver, the miller, the
cobbler, the ne’er-do-well; of all
ranks and ages, high and low, sick
and well, rich and poor,
We might add we believe there
were no rich.
The doctor, consequently, was the
best known person in the locality,
and was admired even by all to whom
he administered many an unpalat
able prescription or compounded a
cathartic.
He never gave much study to pro
blems in high fnance, and, although
he graduated from Victoria College
in the 60’s with highest honors as a
practitioner a system of single or
double entry book-keeping gave him
little concern. If some suffering in
dividual came to the office to have
say a couple of teeth extracted, and
did not pay at the time, but came
some time later to settle the bill, it
would be characteristic for the doc
tor to deal with the matter in the
following manner: “You say it was
two teeth. Oh, yes, I remember now.
The first one came hard, very hard.
That one will cost you twenty-five
•cents. The second one didn’t give us
much trouble, it came easy, making
the charge fifteen cents. Therefore,
I figure forty cents will straighten
things between you and me.”
Every now and then, and not at
rare long intervals, something oc
curred to dampen the ardor of the
village medical practitioner.
We would illustrate as an illus
tration an incident that befell our
man who received a telegram word
ed: ‘‘Come quick doc. wife very sick.’
But now let the doctor tell the
story as it was told to us.

ially fortunate in this respect. Among
other skilled workmen came Thomas
Gidley who settled on lot 21, conces
sion one, Township of Stephen and
now forming a large portion of the
site of the village. He cleared a
goodly portion of land and was quite
a successful farmer. But as he had
been a cabinet maker in England and
seeing the great need for household
furniture in this new land where
tables, benches and bedsteads were
nearly all made by hand he decided
to start a chair factory. In England
he served an apprenticeship of seven
years and became a master workman
He brought his tools with him and
many of them are in the possession
of his grandson in Exeter.
His factory, though built about 80
years ago, is still standing and is
now the home of the Huron Lumber
.Company’s planing mill. Though
’ P” | built on Main Street he was not sat-
' UD y hgfied with the situation and built
J nearer the centre of the village, in
F” j what is now known as the Oddfel-
‘ lows’ Block.■on „. . ,I The father of three sons, Richard,
I Samuel and Charles, all were taken
’into the business. From the begin
ning they found it difficult to sup
ply the demand for household furni
ture. With old world training behind
them they built their furniture for
durability as well as beauty.
But time brings its changes. When
the founder of the business, Thomas
Gidley, died in the old farmhouse
that is still standing as plumb and
stately as when built three-quarters
of a century ago, he left the farm to
Richard and the factory and busi
ness to Charles and Samuel. Of the
four families who lived in Exeter
there is only one descendant here.
Samuel’s son Harry who still fills
orders for fancy articles in wood
work from customers as far away as
Toronto, Montreal and Winnipeg.
It is a delight to visit this quiet
gentlemanly workman and his good
wife, Mrs. Gidley, in the fine old
mansion, erected by his uncle Charles
when Exeter was very young but to
day it looks as though it might stand
for a century longer. It stands in a
spacious lot in a grove of pine and
honey-locust trees. The first Cana
dian Premier to visit Exeter was the
Hon. Alexander McKenzie and while
here he was the guest of Chas. Gidley
in his home.
The home is full of furniture
manufactured by the former Gidley
firm and are good samples of their
workmanship. One kitchen chair of
light weight shows no signs of wear
in the 70 or 80 years of its exist
ence.
One day a New York banker with
an almost continental reputation
and his wife offered $150 for six old-
fashioned cushioned parlor chairs,
backs of which were decorated with
a hand carved bunch of grapes. Af
ter their return home to New York
the Arts and Crafts Guild held an
exhibition of furniture and this set
Of chairs was awarded the red rib
bon by the judges.
Mr. Gidley has a coffee-table, the
legs and top of which are made of
beautiful surly maple that he sal
vaged from a pile of lumber that was
about to be cut up for fuel. The
trimmings of the legs and the inlaid
portions of the top are black walnut

furnaces, boilers and pipes with loss
amounting to $1,003,208. “Electrical

625 fires which involved a loss of
$2,394,278.
One of the strongest arguments in
favour of safety advanced by the As
sociation is supported by government
figures which show that 1,5 09 fires,
causing a loss of $551,655 occurred
from lightning in buildings which
were not rodded, while only 25, in

caused by lightning in buildings

were extinguished, destroyed pro

Among some of the other contri
butory causes to the 44,104 fires in
Canada last year and practically all
of which are listed as “preventable”
were: portable lamps, lanterns and
open lights, hot grease, friction, fire
works, steam and hot water pipes.
“From a study of these causes,”
the Association commented, “it can
be seen that it would be a relatively
easy matter to reduce fire losses in

CANADIAN PIG INDUSTRY
SECOND ONIA TO WHEAT
Pig production in Canada long ago
passed the limits of farm consump
tion, and more than sixty years ago
advanced beyond that point where
Canadian consumers could absorb
the supply of pork products, said A.
W. Peterson, Chief, Live Stock and
Poultry Production Service, Domin
ion Department of Agriculture, in a
recent address. To-day, not less
than 45 per cent, of the pork pro
ducts passing through inspected
packing houses in Canada finds a
market in Great Britain, so that the
houeswife, not only in Canadian
cities and towns, hut in London,
Glasgow, Manchester and other large
centres in Great Britain, dictates the
nature of the product, and, by so do
ing, the manner of its production as
well,

for the sale of the products of the
Canadian bacon pig—one, explained
Mr. Peterson, the domestic market
in Canada, and the other in Great
Britain where about 1,000,000,000
lb. of bacon are consumed each year.
What is quality on the British mar
ket is quality on the Canadian mar
ket, the same kind of pig fortunately
being required to produce the best
product for both. Although the fin
ished product may take a different
physical form anil carry a different
cure, back of it all, however, is the
Pig.
The most important bacon pro
duct of the British trade is the Wilt
shire side, a name derived from a
product of special excellence produc
ed at one time only in the. County of
Wiltshire, England, but which has
since become the standard and style
of the best British bacon. The Wilt
shire side is nothing more or less
than the complete side of a pig from
.which has been removed in the pro
cess of manufacture the head, the
feet, the backbone and the shoulder
blade.
The trade in this product sets very
definite limitations as to the weight
of the side, its appearance and con
formation, and the proportion of lean
meat to fat. Litale or no manipula
tion nor trimming during the process
of converting the pig into a Wilt
shire side is possible beyond that
mentioned. No fat can be removed
if the pig was overfinished; no
length can be added if the pig was
too short; and no weight can be re
moved if’the pig was too heavy. As
the pig is, so is the Wiltshire side.
It can be made only from a special
type of pig—the bacon pig, which is
the goal of modern Canadian pig
raising for export,

GROWERS OF FJRU1T
HOLD HURON PICNIC
The bringing of entertainment
from the city to the farm was cited
as one remedy for the depopulation
of rural Ontario by R. J. Reachman,
M.P., in his address at the first an
nual picnic of Huron County Fruit
Growers’ association at the farm of
George Laithwaite, near Goderich.
The picnic was a gala affair with
more than 1,000 from as far north
as Owen Sound and west to Kitchener
in attendance, while the picnic was
at its height. The arrangements
were in charge of Mrs. D. A. Smith,
the only woman president of a fruit
growers’ association in Canada.
During the afternoon a tour of the
Laithwaite orchards was made and
Prof. J. E. Howitt, of the O.A.C. gave
talks on spraying, pruning, cultiva
ting, etc. Arjournment was taken
to the maple bush and a talk was
given by W. H. Porter, London, on
reforestation an’d conservation.
■George Wilson, commissioner of
fruit marketing, told a large gath
ering in the evening that the public
taste for apples has concentrated on
a few stajple varieties and he urged
growers to get rid of the lesser
known varieties by top-working or
destruction.
Other speakers were Warden Ro
bert Turner, Reeve Wilmot Haacke,
Ian McLeod, former agricultural re
presentative; L. E. Cardiff, Conserv
ative candidate in North Huron and
George Laithwaite.

“Is that you, doc?”
“Yes, I’ve arrived.”

Dr. McTavish in his profession was
evidently skilful, earnest, confident,
and successful. In cases that were
difficult and complacated, many a
person’s life was spared because with
the doctor defeat was out of the
question till he had exhausted all his
knowledge and skill.
The doctor enjoyed mingling with
the folks and liked to be present, if
only for a few minutes, where games
of skill were under way; or present
at a tea, meeting, picnic, social, fair,
plowing match, sawin;
ing, any place where
assembled.
We recall one cold
ter night, hearing the
ing aloud to himself, say: “Ugh! It’s
an awful night. Oh, dear dear me. 1
hope I’m not wanted till morning!”
It was only a few minutes later
when hurried raps came to the door
and the doctor was ordered in haste
to attend the sick.
He lit the lantern to light the way
to harness the horse, but in opening
the office door a gust of wind extin
guished the light. The lantern was
relit and again blown out. This hap
pened three times, then the lantern
was pitched against a stone wall and
old Jack, the horse, was harnessed in
the dark. Then the doctor started
his errand of mercy in the face of
darkness, snow and blizzard.
In those days, when money was
scarce, the time of reckoning for pro

year; but in many instances it was
the reckoning that avaiieth nothing.
