It is saki tbet certain members of the high* sthool board will also be asked to re- sign. The provincial auction sales which were held at Guelph and Ottawa, last year in February and March more than realized the expectations of all inter- ested. The sales this year will take place daring tbe month of February. A. change, however, has been made in the order of the sales. That at Ottawa will take place first, February- nth, and the Guelph one. February.26611. As only a, limited number' of animals will be sold at each :place, and as en- tries have been received for consider- able more than the number required, an opportunity will be given to select only the very best. Animals will be selected that are in the pink of condi- tion, and good iudividuals of the breed they represent. No unworthy animals will be accepted. Persons wishing to purchase can de- pend upon being able to choose from a lot of stock of individual merit and good breeding. The names of a large ntnnber of prominent breeders is a guarantee of, the quality of the stock offered. BREEDS REPRESENTED. The animals to be 'sold at Ottawa in- clude Shorthorns, Ayrshire% York- shires and Tamworths. At Guelph there will be only representatives of the Beef breeds and swine. Naturally Shorthorns predominate in numbers and of these, there are a great many excellent representatives. Such breed- ers as Eton. john Dryden, 0apt. T. E. Robson, Ilderton; A. W. Smith, Maple Lodge; R. Gibson, Delmore; A John- son Greenwood; J. T. Gibson, Den- field, R. & S. Nicholson, Sylvan; W. G. Sanders, Ste Thomast.A. & W. Whit law, Guelph; W. Smith, Columbus; E. Jeffs & Son, Bond Head; Jno. Bright, Myrtle, H.K. Fairbairn, Thedford; W. G. Ormiston, C/olumbus; F. G. Sibbalcl, Sietton West; A.. Moore, Greenwood; J. E. Meyer, Kossuth; and frilly seven- ty-five other breeders of Shorthorns, have stock entered. Among other breeds, J.G.Clark,Ottawa,and ROD. W. _Owens, Montebello, have enteeed Ayr- slnres; D. McCaw, Guelph, Galloways and swine; R. Reid & Co., Tamworths, Berkshires and A.yrshires; Jno. A. Richardson, South March, Holsteins. It will thus be seen that there will be not only a large number of animals to be disposed of but that they will be ell good representatives of the breeds, as every precaution will be taken to • secure this end. Buyers can attend the sales, with every confidence that they can there purchase what they re- quite, and they can • look over the stock in the budding before the sale begins, and at any titne until its close.
