On going to the stable to milk the ems, she had no sooner opened the door than the spectacle of an enormous owl, devouring an immense gander, tho boas or the barnyercl, procionted itself. Tho owl, ono of the great horned species, the largest known in this part or the oontinent, as is their nature, did not at. tempt to escape, but onetead made ready to do battle.

Goss:Aro- The Patrons of Industry held s meet- ing here on Thursday of last week for the purpose of booming their recently started binder twine and implement factory, Wonted at Brantford. About 200 were present, members of the Society and others, mostly farmers. Mr, Win - tore, of Reclgrnve, canopied the chair and called the meeting to order about 3 p. no. After stating the object of the meeting he proceeded to give a statement of some of the cloinee or the Order, and prefaced hie remarks by declaring that the patrons wore not opposed to tho inerohnnts, and was sorry that the first organizer ovho had visited this locality had given that impression. Tho pathos hall broken up the Balt combine, notwithstanding the Salt Association had tried to sell them a dry well, but fortnnately without success. The Graingers killed their well at Kin- cardine by bnyinv, elsewhere. They were 1.1000 attempting to break up the binder twine combine, it being a fast that all tho factories in Canada, exempt a email ono, were controlled by an A.ineri- oan syndicate. Sir. Pritchard, of How- beit, organizer of the Order, was then in- trodtwed. He said patrons were pledged to be non -partizan, and are neither Grit nor Tory, but were united together for the common good of the rumen, who have over seven -tenths of the wealth and numbers of the voters, and yet in the past lave no weight with the Govern. went, but they are beginning to be felt and will yet make themselves noore so in the future. In order to do this they must bo united, and he hoped to soo all the fermate united, e'er Ions!, with the Order, as they were Working Inc the good of the country and not to fill tho pockets of a few, Soma thought the fanners would not stink together, and we must look for 001110 failure in this respeet, as it is meth harder to unite 200,000 men in a, common object, than 15 or 20 men in a salt oombine. Farmers must overcome this by malting their meatingo interest. hog by discussing various subjects, such as feeding sheep or 810100, or the best method at raising turnips, eta. The most prosperous men aro those who are always ready to learn. It; iD said 11111 forms ore not paying more than la peo cant. If this is so 11 10 the farmers own fault, if properly fawned may be made to pity good interest cm money invested, Mr. Brooks, a farmer from tho vicinity of Brantford, and by the way a man of more than ordinary intelligence, was then introduced at the representative of the patrons Binder Twine Co. Ile lode°. rated the Maims of the Sooiety and ad- viSocl tho fawners to throw aside their party preorlioes and band together for their common good. The Association has come today.
