In the report of the recent fall fair of the South Huron Ag'l Society, the follow- ing errors appeared :—For aged Berkshire the first prize was awarded to R. Delbridge instead of P. DeUoursey, and in Singing Birds Jno, Hord's, name appeared as 1st instead of J.Down. If the Judges would be more particular in writing the numbers plainly and correctly these errors in the published list would not occur. The Sick. Dr. Lutz is progressing nicely and we expect to soon see him about. Mrs. Philip Lang, is seriously ill and but little hopes are entertained for her re- covery. We are sorry to report the continued ill- ness of Mr Pratt Fisher. He has been con- fined to the house for some time and is im- proving slowly. Humphrey Vosper, is very low with rheumatism. He is confined to his bed and every turn desired by him has to be aided by his attendants. Mr. John .Com was taken ill on Sung day and is now very low. He is now 81 years of age and his illness will go very hard with him.

Poison one germs arising from low, marshy land,or from decaying vegetable matter, are breath- ed into the lungs, taken up by the blood, and unless the vital livid is purified by the use of a good medicine like Hood's Sarsapar ilia, the unfortunate victim is soon over- powered. Even in the moreadyanoecl. cases, where the terrible fever prevails, this success ful medicine has effected remarkable cures. Those who are exposed to malarial or other, poisons should keep the blood pure by taking Hood's Sarsaparilla. RICHARD PICKARD &SON. FURS !
