Mr. P. Keller, who lost his barn last
summer by lightning, has rebuilt,a lar-
ger and better structure.
Henry Lewis has secured a machine
agency in his home town, Arthur, and

ed by the town council not accepting a
petition asking for another vote on the
local option question.
WALTO N.
After a`brief illness of 10 days John
Mowbray, a worthy resident of this
locality was called to his reward on
Wednesday of last week. He was a
native of Lanarkshire, Scotland, com-
ing to Canada in 1850. In the year
1855 deceased was married to Miss
Susan !Muir, of Rogerville, Huron Co.,
and 30 years ago they moved to Mc-
Killop township, where he continuously
resided until 2 years ago when he sold
his farm to Wm. Robb and took up
residence in Walton. Mr. Mowbray
was in his 82nd year and the cause of
death was old age. He is survived by
his wife, three sons and a daughter.
The former are, Thomas, of New
Westminister, B. C.. James, of Winni-
peg, and Robert, of Toronto. Miss
Mary E. is at home. The subject of
this notice was a quiet, unassuming
man but few were better posted than
he as he was a great reader. He was
a Presbyterian in religion and a Con-
servative in politics and enjoyed the
friendship of many.
WE IT EC H URCH.
On Wednesday, October 16th, the re-
mains of the late Mrs. George1ic-
Cleneghan were laid to rest in Tees -
water cemetery. Six weeks of severe
illness were passed, after which she
fell asleep at the age of thirty-five
years. Her sickness was borne with
patience and christian resignation. Six
years ago as a young and beautiful
bride she left her father's home near
Teeswater and came to her husband's
home at Whitechurch. During these
years her cup of happiness was over-
flowing and she became a minister of
good cheer to the community. In her
removal from our neighborhood the
Presbyterian Church lost a devoted
follower. As a member of the choir
and of the missionary societies of the
church she found expression for her
faitb. The happy blending of whole-
some mirth with the earnest desire to
live a worthy life made her a general
favorite. Hundreds of her friends
gathered at her late residence to pay
their parting tribute of respect, and
sorrowfully joined in the funeral ser-
vice conducted by Revs. Bradley and
McEachern. The sympathy of many
friends is extended to the bereaved
husband.
GLENANNAN
There passed away on October 1st,
at Kamloops, B. C., a former well-
known resident of this place in the per-
♦ j son of Mrs. W. E. Graham. Deceased
was a daughter of Mrs. Anderson,form-
erly of Glenannan and was forty-one
years of age. For about twelve years
she resided at Colpoy's Bay, Ontario,
where her husband taught school.
About five years ago the family moved
to Saskatoon, Sask., where Mr. Gra-
ham was Principal of one of the city
schools. Here the deceased contracted
tuberculosis, and the family moved to
Kamloops, B. C. in the hope that the
change of climate may be beneficial.
For two years it seemed as if these
hopes would be realized, but, compli-
cations set in which resulted in death.
Besides the husband there is left to
mourn, one daughter and one son. The
deceased's mother, Mrs. Anderson, and
the eldest brother, Peter Anderson,
were the only relatives who were able
to attend the funeral. Tne funeral was
vary Iargely attended. Short services
were held at the home and also at the
cemetery by the officiating clergyman,
Rev. C. W. Corey. Mrs. Corey sang,
"Find in Christ Your Rest," a favour-
ite hymn of the deceased. The floral
tributes were numerous and very
beautiful.

CULROSS.
Patrick Kenny, of Holyrood, has
bought the Ballagh farm which is on the
sixth concession of Culross, one mile
west of Teeswater. This is one of the
finest hundred acre farms in Culross,
with fine buildings, a never -failing
spring, eight acres of fall wheat. In
order to become the possessor of this
fine property Mr. Kenny had to pay
eight thousand five hundred dollars.
Possession will be given March lst

KINLOSS.
On Wednesday evening, October 9th,
Wm. James Falconer of Kinloss passed
to his reward after an illness of less than
twenty-four hours. Born in Perthshire,
Scotland, eighty-seven years ago, he
crossed the ocean to establish a home
in Canada. Seven years were spent at
East Williams, Middlesex county, after
which he settled in the township of Kin-
loss, Bruce county, in the beginning of
seventy-eight, where the remainder of
his life was spent in comfort and con-
tentment. Mr. Falconer was a man
of large mould in body and mind. He
was a loyal member of Langside Pres-
byterian Church and one of its best
supporters. He was a Conservative in
politics. He never sought public office
but his gifts of mind and heart admir-
ably fitted him for such a sphere.
Straight as a soldier he presented a
handsome appearance in his old age.
Out of a family of seven children only
two survive the father, David and An-
na, whose privilege it was to minister
most thoughtfully to their respected
parent. His wife predeceased him seven
years. The passing of Mr. Falconer
marks the end of a strong and virtuous
man, a man of wholesome influence.
The sympathy is extended to the ber-
eaved son and daughter.

LUCRNO W.
John Joynt's apple evaporator was
burned to the ground Monday evening
between 5 and 7 o'clock. The fire
originated in one of the dry kilns. It
spread up the walls to the roof and
along the dry pine partitions with a
rapidity which nothing could check.
Only a slight wind was blowing, which
was all that saved the Woollen Mills
and perhaps many residences to the
west. As it was, dry stumps along the
river were set afire as far as twenty
rods away. To Mr. Joynt the loss is
about $3.000, with no insurance. To
the town the loss is very great also, as
the evaporator was one of the largest
of the kind in the Province and em-
ployed nearly forty hands. But to the
farmers around the loss is even great-
er, as there were thousands of bushels
of fruit ready to be brought in, and
high prices were being paid. This
fruit will now go to waste or have to
be drawn very long distances to other
factories.
FRUIT GROWING IN CANADA.
A year ago the Department of Agri-
culture at Ottawa, through the Branch
of the Dairy and Cold Storage Commis-
sioner, undertook an investigation of
the fruit -growing conditions throughout
Canada. The enquiry was intrusted to
Mr. Wm. H. Bunting, an extensive
fruit grower at St. Catherines, Ont.,
who secured as much information as
possible on the following points:-
1. The possibilities of an extension
of the fruit -growing industry of Canada
in the different localities visited.
2. The tendencies in the matters of
the planting and growing of different
kinds of fruit, and with regard to ap-
ples, the varieties which are being
most extensively planted in the differ-
ent districts.
3. The difficulties which are likely
to be encountered in the further deve-
lopment of the fruit -growing industry.
4. Methods of production and or-
chard management which have been
most successful in the different dis-
tricts, and the probabilities of over
production.
5. The conditions under which Bri-
tish Columbia, Ontario and Maritime
Province fruit is marketed in the prai-
rie Provinces as well as the character
and the effect of American competition.
The enquiry was concluded in due
time and the zeport has been printed
for general distribution. It contains a
large amount of detailed information
gathered in every province making it
an invaluable guide to persons who
desire to take up fruit -growing as an
industry.
In his general conclusions Mr. Bunt-
ing points out that while the growing
of fruit offers ample reward to the man
of energy, patience and perseverance,
there is perhaps no phase of agricul-
tural endeavour which requires to be
more closely studied and in which
a wider range of information is
more desirable and necessary. The
future of the industry he states, was
never brighter than it is to -day, the
prospects never more attractive nor
the field of extensive effort in all fruit -
growing provinces more inviting.
The report which contains eighty-four
printed pages and many illustrations is
available to ali who apply for it to the
Publications Branch of the Department
of Agriculture, Ottawa, Ont.
Church Membership in Canada.
Secretary C askey of the Laymen's
Missionary Movement has been making
a study of the total membership in the
Protestant Churches in Canada. At
the time of the Laymen's Congress
three and one-half years ago it was
estimated that there were 900,000
Church members in the Dominion.
This has increased in the three years,
so that the total to -day is undoubtedly
very close to 1,100,040, divided as fol-
lows: Anglicans, 188,000; Baptists,
135,00 Csngregationalists, 12,650;
Friends, 1,000; Lutheran, 100,000; Meth-
odist, 338,5 0; Presbyterian, 288,000;
other bodies (estimated), 10,000. Total,
1,073,150. The number of places of
worship, both self-sustaining and as-
sisted, is about as follows:-Augliean,
2,510; Baptists, 1,307; Christian, 74;
Congregational, 299; Friends, 32; Luth-
eran, 500; Methodist, 5,600; Presbyter-
ian, 4,422; other organizations (estimat-
ed), 250. Total, practically 15,000.

A Beautiful Picture.
We notice in this weeks issue of
The Family Herald and Weekly Star,
that the publishers have ✓secured, as a
premium picture for subscribers, an-
other beautiful subject, entitled "Moth-
er's Treasures," . companion to the
beautiful pictu ' ome Again," which
they gave las year. Family Herald
pictures are always good and it is said
that "Mother's Treasures" is the best
yet. It is truly wonderful what great
value one receives for one dollar a year
in The Family herald and Weekly Star,
it is a pa er no home in Canada should
be without. Every member of a fam-
ily will find some part of it interesting,
and alone well worth the year's sub-
scription. The premium picture, "Moth-
er's Treasures," is 23 by 29 inches, all
ready for framing, and alone weuld
sell in ltny art store at two dollars.
iThe Family Herald should do bigger
business than ever this season.
Foot -and -Mouth Disease.
The Hoard of Agriculture and Fisher-
ies, London, England, desire to call at-
tention to the fact that the employ-
ment, from time to time, in the news-
paper press and elsewhere, of the phrase
"Cattle Plague" in connection with the
recent outbreaks of Foot -and -Mouth
Disease in Great Britain has given rise
to considerab'e apprehension in Contin-
ental countries and is calculated to be
prejudicial to the interests of British
stockowners. The Board wish, there-
fore, specifically to state that no case
of Cattle Plague gu (Pests bovine, Rinder-
pest) has recently occurred in the United
Kingdom which has been absolutely free
from that disease since the year 1877.
that is more than thirty-five years past.
