To -day we present to our readers a list
of the papers with which we club the
`fraises. We have placed the priees so low
that the only margin left goes to the 'sub-
scriber. We give two, and in several in-
stances three papers, for the prose of one.
Read the list carefully, consider your own
interests and take advantage of the offer
at once.
A. Splendid Fence.
Mr. Jas. Sanders, of Stephen, has just
made application for a patenton a very.
heat and s.tbstantial fence of his own idea.
It is ahead of other patent rail fences in
massy respects. It is more easily built,
costs less, is more satisfactory, and is
neater. Samples of the fence can; already
be seen on many farms • in this neighbor-
, Hood. Mr. Sanders will bepleased to have
X11 interested, call.
Where the Deer Go.
Farmers in the Muskoka territory re -
pop& terrible on slaughter on deer by
evolves each winter. Once the snow comes
these beasts play havoc with game.
Some inhabitants in that neighborhood
have on more .than one occasion found
from thirty to forty good-sized deer year-
ly killed by those ferocious beasts. The
government's' . grant of - $6 per head for
• eech wolf .slaughtered does not seem to
• have the,effect of inducing many to un-
dertake'the capture of these animals.

Our Markets.
When we notice the complaints of the
local press of neighboring towns concern-
ingthe low prices their buyers are offer-
ing for grain and produce, we realize ` a
deal of satisfaction in knowing that the
Exeter buyer's . aim to pay the highest
figures for cereals and in part. stake .their
reputation upon giving correct weights.
The:. complaints of the Journal make it
appear as though St. Marys business men
were bein§badly used at the hands of the
$rain merchants, in driving farmers away
from the town;
About Bonuses. '
The law passed at the last session of
