Now that Parliament has prorogued the public have time to reflect upon the result of the West Huron election ehoages. Whatever their polities may be we hope the great majority a the people think more of collider than they do of party. We can therefore easily understand the incredalous items appearbig from time to time in the columns of the less marked Con- servative and well-known independent newspapers. There was a tone of an- noyance at the delay to the despatch of public Imeinees while some wild corn. jeetures of men who had lately beeu beaten in a by-election were being in- vestigated by a committee of the House, but soon this* thanged, The -first ery a "impossible" soon gave place to it must be aifted to the bot. tom." if, in the eourse of the Sifting, a widespread conspiracy to defeat the will of the electorate and elect mem- hers by machinery is unearthea it will not be well for the oilers or drivers of the implement in question. Sir Wile fred plated, the inquiry at once when the charges were made and no doubt felt in his mind satisfied that hie party in West Huron would eouse out with elean hands, What he thinks to -day is not reported. There are some men,however, whose thoughts one can imagine, unless the nearness of the inaehine has made their hearing dull and its oil iujored the sensitiveness of theirskine, Among those there are Messrs. Holmes and IcOilliesuldta, Mr. Holmes wears the letters 31.P. and parades them with priae, kahwing that they belong to Robert McLean. He also has $1000 indemnity and a few other things which. belong to the other "Bob," He is said to be a relous man and has perhaps heard a a book ealled the Bible. Will anyone with time on his hands drop him a post card asking him to read Exodus xx.. 15, and the ad - (boss of Ma. Robert McLean, elected member for West Huron at the last by-election and give his conscience rest. Don't let anyone say he has none till this is done. Then that other chap, a newspaper man ton -Dan -celebrated for his love of the Cameron clan. By the way there was a rani once of the same name, but he must be dead. Perhaps he laid down in his soft pen at Guelph and never charged anything in his whole sheep life, not even the mocking small boy or a stone fence. But the other Dan did. He had heard the song "A Cameroia never can yield" and shouting **Neither calla McGillice lady" be rushed right at the foe. He coarg- ed the stone walls of a post -office; he charged friend, nepotism, falsehood, treachery, etc.; he charged everything, even a dollar a .year for his paper and made Huron ring. But it was a mid- summer madness and was cured. It was a homeopathic cure too. Like cures like. The stone walls of a post office inade him mad. The stone walls of a breakwater cured him. Good old Dan lie down and when hungry take another bite from the Tarte! Dan the Middlesex ram! Dan with the good old Irish name. Both are quiet now - but we must not.grow poetic. Mean- time what can an editor do under the circumstances, wheo so many of the craft are groWing rich with parliamen- tary seats and stone breakwaters, and Klondike contracts. Would it be well to study millinery or dressniaking and then ask for a job On the canal? We shall think the matter over. NOTE AND COMMENT. Dr. Massey,. an Ohio playeacion, is treating cancel, seccessfully by diffus- ing salts of mereuta through the affect- ed tissue by electric action. Says Elec- tricity in a leading editorial in which Dr: Massey's method is described: "A method of destroying .eaneer germs by the aid of electricity has recently been rbscovered which it is claimed almost invariably proves successful provided the disease bas not gone too far. In, a paper read a short time ago before the 3.1edieal Association of Columbus.011io. by Dr. 0...Beam Massey, • this new method of treating .eancer was fully expiable& It consists in inserting in the body of the person afflicted nascent salts of mercury by electric • diffusion. This is said to be a most convenient means of destroying tuberculous de- posits in any part of body wept the brain, the lungs, and the abdomen. The details a the asethodof procedure are interesting as showing the import- ant part played by electrieity," The panted lies .on a large pad connected with the negative pole of a battery, and a tubidor gold .electrode Mled with mercury is inserted into the canceroas growth. The action of the commit re. aults in the formation of an ox,ychiors ide of memory whieh diffases intothe tissnes in all directions at the rate of :shout an inch in half an hour, depend- ing on the voltage of the current. The diseased tissues are thus absolutely destroyed, while the healthy ones be- yond are ouly slightly affected, "In coneluding," says the writer, "the author states that out of ten eases of carcinoma, .or calmer, operated • upon be aiteceeded in curing lune by the use of electricity as outlined above." A SLICK TRICK. Merchants, beware of an advertis- ing fakir who wants to contract for space in a number of frames usually put up in hotels, barber shops, etc. The Barrie Gazette says this is how he drew some $30 out of the merchants of that town:-" To eleven merchants he represented. that he woelcl put up 100 frames in hotels, barber shops and business places in Barrie and Allen- dale and stations of the G.T.R. be- tween Newmarket and Collingwood. To another he raised the number to 500. In pearly every case the young man asked $5 for a space, and so far as we could learn he did not succeed in getting the llve, but 12 merchants signed contracts for amounts varying from $2.50 to $4, nine paying. cash, two giving trade, and one argeemg to pay on Aug. 14. In order to put up 100 frames he woulcl have to get 100 printed cards for each of the 12 adver- tisers. Instead he got printed and paid for 310 cards, 20 for each of the 12 advertisers, and 50 extra for two of them. He then made up one frame and called upon, each advertiser, col- lected his money, and in some cases gave 17 or 18 cards, statingthat these were left, over after making up the frames. On Fridayhe left on south- bound train to work another town. He is a young mau about 35 years of age, stands about 5 feet 10 in., fair complexioned, light blue eyes and a smooth talker." onildren Cry for CAST RIA. Ilighway. Robbery. John Gallagher. son of a farmer liv- ing a short distauce from Parkhill, was waylaid and -robbed on Saturday night while ou his way home from the town, His assailants are said to be a young man who recently campleted a three- year term. in Kingston Penitentiary for rape, and a companion whose re- putation in the locality has never been eery good.Warrants will be sworn out for their arrest.

He was then thrown down and kicked about the body, and his packets turned in- side out. He had hist a dollar in his possession at the time, and this was taken. Gallagher 'offered no resis- tance, believing that if he had be would have received a more severe beating. The matter is now in the hands of High Constable McLeod. Winter Wheat. Results of Tests Made hy Ontario Partners Special Attraction. The Tuckett Conspany, the well known Tobacco Manufacturers, pro- pose to famish a special attraction. at the Toronto Industrial Exhibition to those who find delight in smoking the "weed" as well as to those who are in- terested in the cultivation of Tobacco. This .Company boasts that from the time the Tobacco leaves the growers' hands in Virginia it is under their care until it is transformed into the familiar plug of "T & B" Visitors to the Exhibition will find the hogaisead of reseleaf from their warehouse in the South and illustrations of the various processes through which it passes un- til it becomes the well known plug of Tobacco. • There will be on exhibition not only the familiar "T & B " and "Lily "but the most curious twists, rolls mad plugs made .for inhabitants of all parts of the world from the Eaquimaux of the Arc- tic circle to the maiees of the Trans- vaal. - • The object of the exhibit is to show if possible the actual history- of a leaf of Tobacco from the time it is grown instil it is skilfully packed into the well known packages of Out. Tobaccos or woven by Spaniards into the most inviting of cigars. No one attending the Exhibition should fail to inspect this very in- ersstdng Davis is a Detective. Eighty varieties of winter wheat have been grown in the Experimental Department of tbe Ontario Agricul- tural College for at least five years in saccession,. and the power to Withstand the cold weatber„ strength of straw, amount of- rust, Yield of grain, weight per measured bushel, etts, Of eaell va- riety have been carefitily determined each year, The results of these prac-; tieal held:experiments at the College form the basis for the selection of a few of the very best kinds for testing on thefarms throughout the Province. The co-operative .experiments of the poet few years thew .that those varie- ties which have given the best average results in the experiments -condoeteal, at the College for five years in soeees, sioa have nearly always given good satisfaction on the farms of the Pro- vince. . in the autumn of 1898, seven varie- ties of winter wheat were used for the co-operative tests. These were dated - ed into three sets with three varieties in each set; the Dawson's Golden Chaff being used in all the sets as a basis by .which the results o.f all the varieties could be compared with one another.. The past .Winter was exceptionally severe on the winter wheat crop throughout Ontario, consequently the number of complete tests is not .so large as usual, Reportsof successful, ly eonducted co-operative experiments with winter wheat were received from seventy-two experimenters before the 12th Inst., At which time we started to mak up the summary results in order to place the .information before - the wheat groweas at as early a date as possible. It is interesting to knew that these seventy-two good. reports ramie from no less that) twenty-seven eountiee and aistaicts in Ontario, in. eluding Essex in the "West, Carleton in the East, mid the District of Alp - mu in the North. As we sow about one millMn acres of Wheat in Ontario eaeh arduous, the results of the winter wheat experiments condactea on the different lams throughout the Pm. vince are of inestimable value to those interested in wheat growing. The following table gives the vane parative adeld Of steaw and grain per acre of the Varieties of winter wheat tested vu seventy-two forma in 1809: The -Winnipeg Free Press says: The theory, which gained a great deal of credence in the city, that Percy Davis, who was mainly instrumental in the ar- rest of 3. W. Anderson and the recov- ery of the stolen money belonging to the alolson's bank, was not a detective, but merely a confident who gave away his chum, is apparently exploded by the defmate statement which his so- licitor made to a Free Press reporter Friday, Aug. 18th. Mr. Whitla said there was no longer any necessity of shrouding Davis's connection in mys- tery and exhibited the basiness card of the Chicago agency for which Davis has been working up the-Molson's bank case. The name of the agency, which is incorporated, is the "Metropolitan Detective Agency," the head office of which is the United States Express building, Washington Street, Chicago. It is stated on good authority that the manner in which Davis was pat on to Anderson's trail was quite sim- ple. As will be remembered, the Pinkertons were first engaged upon the case, being retained by the bank, but this agency does its work 'on sal- ary, not for the reward, so that when the bank declieed tceemploy the men longer the chase was given up. At this time, however, the Pinkerton men strongly suspected Anderson, so it is said, and on their return to Chica- go one of them told of his suspicious to Mr.J. E. Fitzpatriek, one of the principals of the Metropolitan Detect- ive Agency, who put Davis to work on the case for the reward. Iii Keinoriain.

In the average yield of wiuter wheat per acre, the Dawson's Golden Chaff stood highest among 11 variee ties tested. over Ontario in the year 1893, among 9 varieties in eaels nt th- years 1804-, 1895, and 1806, and among '7 varieties in each of the years 1897, 1898, and 1890. 2, In the co-operative experiments for 1899, the Stewart's Champion, Bearded Winter Fife and Dawson's Golden Chola cause through the. wits - ter the best, and the Golden Drop the poorest. 3. The Early Red Clemson and Im- perial Amber were the first and the Bearded Winter Fife and Stewart's Champion were the last to mature in 1899. 4. Dawson's Golden Chaff and the Early Genesee ' Giant possessed the strongest straw anal the Bearded Winter Fife the weakest straw in the tests of this year. 5. Stewart's Champion :mil the Bearded "Winter Fife pronounced the longest and. the Golden Drop the short- est straw in 1899. 6, In the co-operative experiments of each of the past six years, the. Daw- son's Golden Chaff was one of theleast and the Early Genesee Giant was one of the most effected by rust. 7. In 1899, all varieties were prac- tically free from smut which is nearly always the case when no mad is sown with the wheat. 8. The Stewart's Champion and Dawson's Golden Chaff produced the plumpest and Imperial Amber and -Early Red Clawson the most shrun- ken grain in this year's tests. 9. The Stewart's Champion an.d Dawson's Golden Chaft were the most popular varieties and. the Golden Drop Was the least popular variety with the experiments in 1809. 10. During the past seveu years, the Dawson's Golden Chaff has been an exceedingly popular variety with the fanners who have been conducting these co-operative experimen ts through out Ontario.
