Smith, Manager 41-0 NEW CASH CREAM STATION We have learned in our twenty-two years experience that it is more satisfactory to the Producer and also to the Buyer of cream to sell his cream direct to a cream station, where he can see it weighed and tested and receive payment for same when delivered. than it is to ship cream to a distant creamery and await returns, We have rented a store, for a year, from E. MERKLEY & SON, WINGHAM 4 Corner of Victoria and Josephine Streets, and will buy cream TUESDAYS AND FRIDAYS Beginning Friday, August 31st. • Evenings Included. We have engaged an expert cream tester to buy cream for us at Wingham and other towns nearby. We were the first creamery in Western Ontario to open Cash Cream Stations, WE LEAD — OTHERS FOLLOW. We will pay as high a price as the market will warrant and give sou a fair test and honest weight, We furnish cans to our patrons but we will pay 1 cent a pound more for butter fat to patrons delivering cream to us in their own cans. Ask your banker as to our etanding. SAFETY FIRST All we ask for is a Trial. Mr, Merkley will give you a cream tan any time you call at his garage, WELLINGTON CO. CREAMERY ARTHUR, ONT. A BUSY WIiFK Temperance Forces havo been Active And Many Fines lenpoeed wenbe The temperance organization of the county has been keeping (Imitable Pellow pretty busy lately. For ex- ample a diary lona few of his tlayb' work tho past week h interesting. Oa Saturday he was at It from 0 a.m, till after 10 p,m, He left op the C. P. R. and went to Blyth, made a search, then walked to Clinton, a dietanco of some twelve miles, served sumo papers, and took the G. T. It, baok to Goderich, then went out to Nile and back, Mon- day he executed a warrant, autoed 23 tulles and served papers attended court in Goderich twice and had five convictions, .Ouesday, attended two courts and had two convictions, trav- elled frgnt Goderich to McGaw, thence to Londeeboro', thence to Clinton and back to Goderich.

The temperance organization is evidently bent on seeiug that the law is enforc- ed. It is not safe to let onc'e friendliness extend. to entertaining with alcoholic beverages these days, as W. J. Powell found to his costs the past week. On Wednesday last there was a buach of bowlers in town from an outside point and a quartette enj.iyed Mr. Powell's hospitality at his home, On their way home per auto, the party were ditched and the ma thine badly damaged. This was the night many were on the road returning from the Red Cross Garden Party held at Saltford Heights, and some narrow escapes from collison with the bowlers' auto are reported. A fine of $50 and costs was imposed by Police Magistrate Kelly on Mr. Powell on Tuesday in connection with this case and the previous evening the bowling party paid a fine of $10 each. A second fine of $50 and costs was imposed on Mr. Powell on Tuesday, this time for entertaining a quartette of boat men in a aim,iliar way, Con- stable Pellow arrivinat the house as the party were enjoying a friendly glass on Monday morning. On Monday Cliff Levy, of Clinton. pleaded guilty to a violation of the Canadian 'Temperance Act and paid a fine of $50 and costs to Magistrate Kelly and yesterday afternoon Roy Graham, of Clinton, was before the magistrate on a charge of infraction of the C. T. A. Both these cases arose out of a seizure of a ten-gallon keg of whisky at 1YIcGaw station Ly Constable Pellow. In connection with this case there was a lot of detective work (loin. The Constable had a tip that whisky was to be delivered somewhere along the line of the C. P. R. He made five trips to McGaw before he caught the keg being unloaded, It was consigned to Wm. Singleson. Levy was on hand and claimed the whisky and brought friends to identify him but was unable to satisfy the express agent that the liquor was his, Graham also was on band. The caee agitinet Jables Burne, of Blyth, in which judgment was reserv- ed for a week, was dismissed, it being not proven that the liquor was brought into the county. Eche, case was before Police Magistrate Aadiows of Clinton, 'Under recent convictions for viola- tions of the Canada Temperance Act, which°is in force in Huron County, Silas Balkwill, of Blanchard Township was lined $50 and costa for unlawfully bringing liquor into the county, and Fred Bloomfield, of Exeter, was fined a similiar amount for the same offence. George Hirone, of Blyth, pleaded guilty before Magistrate Kelly, of Goderich, for bringing liquor in for other than personal use and was fined $50 in costs last Friday,—Goderich Star.
