The docket was quickly disposed of as follows :- Jewell et al. vs. Wilson -This was an action to recover the price of two carloads of apples sold by the plain- tiffs, Richard Jewell and son, of Col- borne Tp., to D. D, Wilson, apple dealer, of Seaforth. Judgment was entered for the plaintiff for $361.50 with costs of the action on the Coun- ty Court scale. The defendant's coun- terclaim will be tired at the next De- cember sittings of the Court with a jury. The Robt. Bell Engine Co. vs. Lowry -This was an action entered by the plaintiffs of Seaforth, against Robt. Lowry, a thresher and farmer in the township of Huron, Bruce county. It was alleged that the defendant, after agreeing to purchase a 22 -horsepower traction engine from the Company, refused to give the notes and settle- ment for the engine. The plaintiffs resold the engine and by so doing lost $452. Claims were entered for this amount and the interest on the same. The privilege of selling the defen- dant's land, charged as security when the engine was purchased, in order that the amount might be recovered, was asked ; also the costs of this action. The trial was postponed until June 28th, Simpson vs. Turner -The plaintiff, Mrs. Ann Simpson, is a Widow, living in Brucefield, and the defendants, Mrs. Eliza Turner and David Bell, are residents of Tuckersmith, and execu- tors of the will of the late R. J. Turn- er. In December, 1892, the late Mr. Turner gave a note to the plaintiff for $500 with interest at five per cent. No money has been paid on the note since December, 1903, itnd the plain- tiff asks for the payment of $500 and interest from that date. The defen- dants claim that any claim is barred by the statute of limitations. By the consent of counsel, this action was postponed till June 28th.

Forrester of Gode- rich Tp., to recover wages. The date of the trial is to be fixed. Clow To Destroy Wire Worms. HURON COUNTY COUNCIL,, This Council met last week in Gode- rich ; all the members were "'present except Deputy -Reeve Ilainstook, of Howick, who is i11, Warden A. J, Irwin presided.. Papers in regard to two children committed by Magistrate Andrews, of Clinton, to the care of the Children's Aid Society were received. The coup- ty will be at an expense of $2, per week each for these children, Jailor Griffin's report was presented. He reported one prisoner in the jail, serving a sentence on a charge of as- sault, The County Council expressed its sympathy to Joseph Hainstock and family, owing to Mr. Hainstock's serious illness for some time past, and hope that he may be spared and re- stored to health, and may again take his place at the council board; a copy of this resolution •to be sent to Mr. Hainstock by the clerk, The question of having the per diem allowance of county councillors in- creased from $3 to $5 was re -intro- duced by Councillors Smith and Wat- son, but the proposal was lost when put to a vote. , It was moved by Councillors Wat- son and Govenlock that the county grant to the collegiate institutes of Goderich, Clinton and Seaforth and the Wingham high school be increas- ed by $2,000, the amount of the in- creased grant to be apportioned to the different schools in accordance with the terms of the High School Act - carried, A prominent Nova Scotia agricultur- ist gives the following in "Farm and Dairy" :-Forty years ago there were a few wire worms in a corner of one of my fields. They gradually spread and drove us from ono acre to another un- til I was cleaned out of that field so far as a crop was concerned. I could not raise potatoes or grain on that land, as the wire worms would destroy the plants. I seeded this down to grass 30 years ago, never to touch it again, as it was so full of couch grass and wire worsts. At last I made the discovery how to destroy both the wire worms and the couch grass. So two years ago I plowed this piece of land and had po- tatoes on it last year. Not one pota- to plant was eaten nor did a spear of couch grass appear. The way to destroy wire worms is to plow the land as soon as the grass has been cut, The field should then be kept perfectly clean by cultivating and harrowing it oncea weak, The second year of this practice will kill every wire worm, it makes no differ- ence how thick they are. If the land is elear of couch grass, one will not need to harrow so often. One season is not sufficient time to kill the wire worms as they can exist an the dead rota of the grass ; but the second year fixes them all right. It is worthy of special mention that after spending over $2,000 worth of the hardeettkind of labor and .then to fail, that after the Mattoon I now fol- low, It mete we -only e.btnd $6 a year to kill the sonola grams arra bo clreala oat tlhewent*. I chow my fS Ms to��ole r *est pat% 0 s c aunty at Guelph Winter Fair. Re- peating the .motion to increase the ouneillors' allowance per diem from $3 to $a", It was recommended that it be not adopted. Regarding the re- quest from the 'Huron Rifle Assool- ation for a grant of $100, it was r e commended that the sum of $50 be granted ; that a. grant of $10 be made to agricultural societies holding spring shows., It was recommended that the council take charge of the two desti- tute children committed by the Olin- ton magistrate, and that they be plac- ed in a temporary shelter, The equalized assessment of the county is $12,501,400, and the treasur- er's estimated expenditure is $73,172;, 1.1 and the estimated receipts $9,420,01, leaving a balance of 503,752.10 to be provided for. This will require a rate of one and one-half mills on the dollar for the -present year.. In a communication from Andrew Porter, secretary of the Goderich Rural Telephone Company, permis- sion was asked by the Company to string its wires over county bridges in the townships of East and West... Wawanosh, Ashfield and Colborne. On motion of Councillors Munnings and Taylor the request was granted. It was decided to extend the priv- ilege granted to the Goderich Rural Telephone Co, to all municipal tele- phone systems. The council met on Thursday morn- ing, and after the adoption of the special committee's report adjourn- ment was made to allow the council to make arrangements for the enter- tainment of the councils of Bruce and Perth. The remainder of the day was devoted to the reception and enter- tainment of the visitors, concluding with a banquet in the evening. Councillors Anderson and Switzer introduced a motion Which would per- mit clerks of all municipalities to sub- mit a summarized statement of the contents of their assessment roll, in- stead of transmitting a full copy as required by the Assessment Act. It would be required of these clerks that a full copy of the roll be returned to the county clerk ,every third year. This motion was ost. The county sanitarium question was again considered in committee. The council signified its willingness to proceed with the establishment of such an institution. It recommended that the name of Dr, Smith, Reeve of Bayfield, be added to the committee. Dr. Bruce Smith will be asked to in- spect the proposed sites for the san- itarium. Plans and specifications and an estimate of the cost of the building will be prepared. As soon as the committee has .its report beady a special meeting of the council will be called to receive and consider the re- port. Three bylaws -to equalize the as- sessments of the several municipali- ties of the county; to raise the sum of $83,752.10 for general and other pur- poses, and to borrow money for county purposes -were read and passed. The county property committee re- ported that they had examined the jail and found everything clean and well kept. There was one inmate, serving a sentence of three months for assault. Everything was found in good order at the registry office. Everything was found neat and clean at the court house. The house of refuge committee in its quarterly visit to the house of refuge at Clinton found the building and equipment in first'class condition, The land is in a good state of cultiva- tion ; the growing crops are well ad- vanced. Entire satisfaction with the management was expressed and the committee considered that the insti- tution was economically and efficient- ly managed. The average cost per week is 92i<c for an average of ninety inmates. This is considered an extra 'good record on examination of the statistics of 1000 for Ontario, which place the rate for the county house of Northumberland and Durham Counties at $2,85 per week for an average of seventy inmates. Huron county's rate is the lowest in Ontario, At present there are eighty-five in- mates, all of whom appear to be clean, well 'fed and fairly well contented. Pemale'help is badly needed at the house of refuge. Assistance has been advertised for, but none has been obtained. Regarding the letter re- ceived from R, N. Dui!, of Bluevale, *eferring to the assault coni pitted by a° man now in jail upon Rebecca Munn, an imbecile, it was recommend- ed that she be left in the bands of the Reeve of Morris, in which township the village of Bluevale is partly situ- ated. The executive committee recons - mended that a grant of $26 be given the 1 urtn Poultry Aasoolation for their show to be held et Clinton t that $100 be granted towards the =Motet. arm of Miss ilagttes, blind Intllgant, In Alexandra hospital; that s prier, of 00 be oared tor the beet bred tantriiil i l roifn btr eiat'w lateter exhibitor of the A GENEROUS OFFER. J. W. McKibbon Will Refund Your Money if Parisian Sage Doesn't Banish Dandruff. Pretty strong talk, perhaps you'll say, but it's honest talk, every word of it, because if J. W. McKibben was not absolutely certain ; if ho did not know from actual results obtained he could not make such a generous offer. Parisian Sage, which can now be obtained in every town in Canada, is also guaranteed to stop falling hair and itching scalp. It is the ideal, delightful, rejuve- nating hair dressing that makes hair grow in abundance.

Some statistician who thinks the world ought to know about it, has de- vised a table which is intended to show the activity of New York. Here are certain extracts from it: - Every hour a fatal accident; every eight hours a divorce ; every ten hours a suicide ; every second two telephone calls ; every second 3,750 gallons of water are consumed ; every two sec- onds an arrest ; every thirty seconds an immigrant arrived ; every minute forty tons of coal are consumed ; every five minutes a child is born ; every six minutes a death; every thirteen minutes a marriage. A Cow Did It. Mathias Helfrich of Ironville, Pa., had an unusual accident happen to his automobile. He had gone on a fishing trip in his car, and while fishing left his car standing along the banks of the creek. After fishing some time, during which he walked some distance froth the car, he heard the horn blow several blasts. Thinking children were playing with it, Mr. Helfrich made an investigation, when he was surprised to find a cow chewing the bulb •of the horn, which emitted fre- quent grunts at this unsual treat- ment. He chased bossy away and found that a hole had been chewed in the bulb. Dropsy Given up by Doctor "1 had dropsy, and was told by my family physician that there was no chance for me. My family also gave the up. My limbs and body were swollen one-third larger than natural, water collected around my heart and I had to be propped up in bed to keep from smothering. I took Dr. Miles' I-Ieart Remedy until 1 was entirely cured. This was in 1902, and 1 ant now able to do any kind of work on my farm. My cure was certainly marvelous." L. TURLEY CURD, Wiltnore, I<y. Dr. Miles' Heart Remedy has been wonderfully successful in relieving heart trouble. Its tonic effect upon the heart nerves and lunacies is a great factor in assisting nature to overcome heart weakness. Price $1.00 sat your dreeehat.
