Grainger, 5th line, adjoining 'Brussels, have met with splendid success in this season's crop. Wm. Brewer did 1.i day's threshing and the product registered as follows: -171 acres Fall wheat, over 500 bushels, or nearly 80 bushels to the acre. 12i acres barley returning over 600 bushels or nearly 50 bushels to acre; and 24 acres of oats, giving 1500 bushely; over 60 per acre. In all, there were over 2,000 bushels of fine grain It was a wonder- ful crop and shows what extra cultiva- tion will do. They have put in 20 acres of Fall wheat this season. About 200 rods of new and fixed over fence have been a small part of the improvements m: •Good luck to them, they deserve Another forward step in rural improv- ment was celebrated on Saturday, Sept. 25, by the opening of the fine new schoolhouse, No. 10, Morris, known as Ramsay's School. The enjoyable event was favored with very -pleasant weather and a large number of ratepayers, pupils, old boys and girls of the school and other friends and well-wishers assembled to give the new school a rousing start towards a long and ane- cessful history. The building is well situated on a corner lot which allows a good view to be obtained from all directions. It is built of red brick with concrete basement and the roof is sur- mounted by a fifty -dollar beifrey and flag pole. The outside dimensions are 48 by 27 feet. Mounting the concrete steps, the front door gives access to Ithe vestibule from which stairs lead on either side to the schoolroom landings above, while steps descend to the base - 1 meet at right and left. The cloak- rooms are situated at the bottom of the basement steps and contain shelves for holding the school lunches. From there, doors lead into the basement playroom the walls and floor of which are con- crete and the ceiling and other wood- work painted grey. This will make an excellent playroom on cold days and contains the Kelsey furnace. There is a separate c,)al room and a closet for the caretakers use. Upstairs the schoolroom is very bright and cheerful with its white walls. Georgia pine wainscoting and metallic eeiling painted in light, harmonizing tints. It is lighted by six large, aindows most of them on the North side and at the left of the pupils. From the picture mould- ing ars hung pictures of the royal family, the late Queen Victoria and Sir Wilfred Laurier and a picture of Sir R. L. Borden is being donated by a friend of the school. The blackboard is of Pi.ge slate and -a new teacher's desk is to replace the one nowtin. use. Above the vestibule and at a higher level than the schoolroom is the teacher's room the walls and ceilings also of Georgia pine and commanding a view of the school- room through a. wiridow. The stairs and all the other woodwork are beautifully finished and the windows, floors and all parts of the building are spotlessly clean, revealing the con- scientious work of the caretaker, Mr, Thos. Smith, whose services give the utmost satisfaction to the trustees - During the last few weeks a number of bees have been held for the purpose of levelling and grading the grounds and other necessary work and the greatest harmony and co-operation has prevailed throughout. Next year it is the inten- tion to put down concrete walks, seed the grounds and plant trees which will add greatly to the appearance and use- fulness of the property. The building contractor for the new building was Mr. George Haney of Bluevale and the trustees speak very warmly of the hon- orable and thorough way in which his part of the contract has been carried out. The brickwork and plastering was in charge -of Mr. John Adams, Wrox- eter, Mr. Fred McCracken of Brussels did the painting, decorat;ng and finish- ing and the furnace and tinsmithing were done by Wilton and Gillespie of Brussels. These men all gave the best of satistaction. The trustees who have had the supervision of the building work deserve a special word of com- mendation for their faithful services. Only those who have had charge of a similar undertaking can appreciate the amount of time and trouble the building of the new school involves. Mr. Anson Shaw is the veteran member of the school board having been in office near- ly twenty years, a striking tribute to his popularity and usefulness. The other members are D. Ramsay and P. Moffatt, and Chas. B. Forrest is Secre- tary -Treasurer. The teacher, Miss Bessie Moses is a general favorite with young and old and her work in the school is warmly praised by parents and trustees, in fact the latter admit- ted on Saturday that the main object in building the new school was to retain the services of Miss Moses and prevent her from yielding to the attractions of some other career to which she might be exposed. An enjoyable afternoon was spent by those present at the school opening. The leading event was a baseball match between the famous Jamestown girls and the married men of the section. Owipg to the respect, due to age, the young ladies allowed the men to win by a narrow margin, thescore being 18-14. There were races for the children and other sports and hot coffee and refresh- ments were served and greatly enjoyed by those present. The proceeds of the booth and a special collection go to the Red Cross and amounted to $28.40. LIVE. STOCK MAKnitTS Toronto, Union Stock Yards, Sept. 27—Not for many a day has :here been such a pronounced activity all over the market as was experienced this morn- ing. The offering was fairly large, but a cleanup of butcher cattle was effect- ed before noon at an advance of from 10 to 15c on Thursday's quotations. The 'only bit of dulness concerned can- ners, which were not only slow, but a trifle easier, packers hanging off with a view to getting a recession. Stockers and feeders were inclined to be quiet after the improved sales of last week, but several orders from distant points are in view. It wools' not .be surprising if thi, week local farmers were heard from. Prices• are holding firm, and if farmers are to make any decent return on their cattle butcher meat prices will not be lower this Winter. Lambs are active and 10 and 15e stronger. Sheep and calves were firm to strong, while hogs, if anything, were inclined to a dearer market, two decks selling at $t0.09 weighed off cars. The receipts for the morning were 207 cars, with 2,516 cattle, 133 calves, 1,569 hogs, 1.45a sheep and lambs, and 715 horses. Arrived Saturday, 96 cars, with 175 cattle, 13 calves, 942 hogs, 22 sheep and lambs, and 249 horses.
