ith, Carmel Presbyterian ' church,

May 4th. The speaker for the occa-
sion, Rev. D. C. McKerroll, of Toron-

which were extremely largely attend-
ed both morning and evening. The
large 'choir of the church rendered
excellent musical numbers, consist-
ing of anthems, quartettes, solos, etc.
at both services. In order to make
the anniversary the best possible the
services in . the afetaodist church
were withdrawn in the evening.

MEETING OF CUODISLBER
GROWERS IN BENSALL
On Wednesday • evening of last
week there was a largely attended
meeting in the Town Hall Ig connec-
tion with the new indastry here of
'Messrs. Libby, McNeil and Libby, of
Canada, Limited; Food Paocluets of
Chatham Oat The meeting was
mostly attended by the Partnere who
had contracted and given land for the
producing of cucumbers and 'pickles,
also a number from our village, who
were undertakieg to cultivatereuculn-
'bers. Our Reere, Mr, Owen Geiger,
not being present at the opening of
the meeting,' Mr. Burges, of Chat-
ham, took the chair, remarking as
he did, that they liked to aiive the
Reeve or Mayor Of any place where
they were holding meetings, to take
the chair if present.
Mr. Burgess gave a most interest-
ing address on the sowing of the seed
the preparation of the land 'lot it aud
the treatment while growing an4 af-
terwards in picking as the crop ma-
tured. He said the best time usually
to plant was the first of June or
perhaps a little sooner. and that it
was most important as in all crops
to have the land in good shape in the
way of good cultivation and fertniz-
iug and he thought the best results
were obtained from broad -casting the
fertilizer, He also said in picking,:
is was well to have two baskets or
receptacles, one for the small cucum-
bers, which were most valuable front
% of an inch to 1 inch, but larger
Ones could be' used all' right, but to
destroy the very large ones, which
absorbed altogether lob much sustens
anee. He explained how prorript pay-
ment was made from week to week
on presentation of the weight or
measure ticket and how important it
was to preserve such. In short, he
deatt very fully with all the aspects
of planting,, cultiyating and gather-
ing, a.nd gave instances Of where
many had made splendid returns.
aome as high as $125 'for a quarter of
an acre, but that was considerably
above the average OT what might
reasonably be expected. He showed,
however, that good results were al-
ways obtainable where care and good
culture were given and how profit-
able cucumber culture had proved in
Chatham. .
Mr. Burgess was followed by Mr.
M. Moore of Lambeth, or London.
as he is generally termed, being so
near that city, and Mr. Moore made
a splendid address, endorsing what
liaraliargees had said about the large
profits that were obtainable from cu-
cumber culture and pickles and that
there was a great market for the
same. He also stated that as sales-
man for the Swift Canadian
the Union Stock Yards, that he had
travelled very extensivelY over all
Canada, -the United States as well as,
largely throughout Europe and For-
eign countries and he knew lib land
or soil so'well adapted for eubtunber
culture as the counties of Haron*and
Middlesex and did not think the sun
shone an as fair an extent of country
, .
as these counties. 1t is a grand
,chance for the farmers and yillagers
and all who could do -so, tiaenter into
the planting andcultivating of cu-
cumbers and nothing was more im-
portant in obtaining good •results as
the free use of fertilizers: He in-
stanced h'o'w long -Germany saes -pap -
able of Parrying on tae late war, shut
off from outside markets, explaining
that it was due to the fact that they
had fertilized their lands most un-
sparingly, thus getting wonderful re-
sults. He paid a marked compliment
to the Press as being a great agency
of 'bringing manufacturers, and pro-
ducers together in the way of giving
publicity and information and com-
batting any thing that was wrong
andthat the Press kept the people
enlightened on what was going on
and in their interests. He gave
manyhints to the farmers and grow-
ers 'generally of the hest methods'to
follow to get large -results.
Mr. Aldridge was also present at the
meeting and received a number more
applications for seed and the speaker
mentiohea that there would be a
much larger acreage this year than
an' past year, and that they were
much encouraged by the splendid
patrona,ga they were receiving at
Heneall and Exeter where they had
opened business which they were
confident would keep on, extending
and become more and more profit-
able both to the Company and its
patrons.
The meeting of the Young People's
•
League on Monday night was a fine

address. Two fine solos were given
by Miss Slay, of Sarnia, a cornet solo
by Master Bruce lloggarth and piano

COMMTJNICATION
To The Exeter Times:
For the last two years the growers
of flowers have been encouraged to
grow them in full view of the streets,
because the children and others have
not picked the flowers. We trust
that this kindly disposition will con-
tinue, as it will encourage people to -
beautify their premises, thus giving
•pleasure to the public as well as the
owners. Therefore we trust the fol-
lowing incident is an -exception:
A. lady whose display of daffodils i•
exceeds possibly any other in town,
had it almost ruined Monday' night
iby two girls who picked almost every
one of the best blooms. iVfay we not
hope the season may pass without a
similar act occurring. Let no all
work together to improve this beaut-
iful little town, envying no one be-
cause he has succeeded in improving -
his premises, but rather, rejoicing
with him because of the • added,
.beauty.
A lover of flowers.
