THURSDAY, Oot, 1, 1908 THE CAMPAIGN The political campaign has now been On for two weeks and it is gettleg warn. ti e. locally, but in many places. partic- n'a:ly v:.hcrc the leaders have been ad- itrc•ebing meetings. In South ifuron one would hardly knew a campaign was on. Ti.,: candidates up to the present are [Waking a still hunt for votes. But far and wide throughout the countr; -wh?re the big men of the partite are speaking to largo audiences t. -e campaign 'veins to be growing very warm indeed. The big dallies are filled with accounts of speeches, lntervlewa : ed lettere bearing on pc•littcal matters. Premier Roblin of Mai,itoba and J. A.

There is not a Liberal in the country to -day who expects Laurier to win with the same majority, sixty-six. and very few of there think he will have over twenty-five. Why should not Conservatives think that Borden will be the next premier? Brodeur, to quiet a disturbance in a Liberal convention in Quebec, said: "I have to tell you, gentlemen, that the strife in the Liberal party must cease. for if the Opposition carries more than ten seats in Quebec, the Laurier Gov- ernment will be defeated." The people learned with surprise that the Premier of Canada and a Professional Decorator travel togeth- er, or, to he more exact, that the Dec- orator goes a day ahead, hence the lav- leb and gaudy display of hunting, ban- ners and devices. The Premier and the Decorator are a new combination in Canadian politica.—Clinton News Record. In October, when leaves and flowers are dying, when nature Is closing her eyes for her long sleep. it is only those of long experience who cry ; 'TMs Is the best time to start a garden." There Is always a setback to a garden start- ed in the spring, because it Is not long enough from lite time growth begins un- til the hour of bloom to give many plants their full chance to expand b: to. _ send - Ing forth their flowers. A plant must almost reach maturity before it blooms, which Indeed It only does that it may form seed, and thus perpetuate its.•lf to posterity. To start a garden early le often the secret of success. By pre- paring the beds and borders in the au- tunite digging their out about two feet deep, placing Inverted sod in the bot- tom, and finally filling them up with layers of manure, light soil and top dressing, much time le saved In the spring, when the lrreelatIble not-a-min- ulte-to-lose feeling is In the alr.

If in the opting these autumn -prepared beds re- quire extra mulching or fertilizing. it is a matter that is very easily attended to. When the beds and borders are made, the garden should he cleared of all surplus material. The roots of strong weeds should be lifted, and n light dressing o1 manure spread over the places that are destined to ba lawn the following spring.—The October De- lineator.

Crediton CIVIC HOLIDAY This village loyally celebrated civic holiday on Friday last when the mer- chants closed their places of business, and all the citizens enjoyed the bowl- inand baseball. g13OwLINO—The local bowling club had arranged for a tournament for a trophy, and about two o'clock the rinks arrived on the ground, seven in all, two from Dashwood, two from Ex- eter, one from Mt. Carmel and two local rinks. On the draw being made Mt. Carmel got a bye. In the first games the two Crediton rinks went under along with Edighoffer's rink of Dashwood. In the semi-final games Mt. Carmel was defeated and Hea- man'a rink of Exeter defeated. The finals were then played between Exe- ter and Dashwood rinks, the former winning by a good margin.

Tarnan's Exeter rink was (as the visitors stated) highly creditable to the Crediton howlers, being a beautiful sil- ver set, consisting of a half-dozen knives, forks, large and small spoons, a butter knife and sugar spoon, valued at 820. The Kant! being concluded all repaired to Hill's Hotel where after supper had been eaten, Mr. 8. Brown, President of the Crediton Club, in a neat speech presented the trophy to the winning rink.

BASEBALL—The baseball game be- tween the Irish Nine of Lucan and Crediton proved to be just as interest- ing and close as expected, the final re• stilt being 3 2 in favor of the visitors, although to the majority of (he play- ers and spectators a hit by Snell that let in Kerr and himself looked more like a fair ball than a foul as called by the umpire; and following ns it did a hit by Kerr that let in two, it would seem that the proper score should be 4.3 in favor of Crediton. The game was a most creditable one, after the second innings when a few errors oc- curred. Fabner and Snell were the battery for Crediton, and Gibson and Downing for Lucan.
