building, which was a ironic structure,
was being foot gutted by the flames, and
bhe wind blowing from the west, carried
the flying flaming shingles as thick as
flakes in a snow storm to the roof of tho
parsonage, where the two parties on the
roof were kept hard at work sweeping
them off and throwing water on, whish

0010-0111T.—The Morris 999005500 fs
working for the liquor party. He quiet-

you accordingly. What do honest tem-
perance folks think of this? Last time
the antis drove through here with a load
of whiskey, but Morris was sound. the
majorities being as follows :—No. 1, ma.
jority, 10 ; No. 2,18 ; No. 3, 71; No. 4,
63; No. 5, 62 ; total, 224. I think I see
some who were on the fence before getting
down, and saying, "Well, those fellows
will do anything, but we will vote. They
won't gain anything by trying to deceive
me." Temperance sentiment has not
gone back. People are not awake to the
foot that the enemy is not going about
roaring this time, but is doing it very
slyly. They say, "More liquor sold than
ever 4" They know it is false. Hero are
the figures:—For the year. 1883, 4,107
gallono; 1884, 4,039 gallons ; 1885, 8,874
gallons ; 1886, 8,659 gallons, I have not
got the figures for 1887. Judge Bose
gives the following figures to show that
drnnkennes has boon less. Taking Huron
and eight other counties the average in
1884, under licence, was 23 committals;
in 1884, half year of Scott Qat, 16 com-
mitels; in 1885, under Scott Act, 16 eom-
mitals. This shows that their stories are
all wrong, as blue books and judges all
deny. The majority for Scott Act in
Canada now is 44,658. But they "ay
Halton defeated it. Yos, by 107. West•

The blankest hour is just beforethe dawn.
Don't stay at home. Como out and voto,

7MIcFadden, Pr00ident of the Ihtst Huron

worth Farmers' Instituto at Hamilton.
A synopsis of his speech is given as fol.
!ewe :--Mr. MoPocklen spoke on the
b"eeding, eduoating mut training of the
driving horse. tuts acddress was replete
with valuable information on these points,
and wits attentively listened to. Educat-
ed driving horses, he said, were very
seam-, most of thein having been spoiled
in tee early stages of training. 1301 em
the colt i•: a year old he should be made
acquainted with the bit. He ought not
to be taught to back up until he has boon
driven in every other direction. The
colt must be made to understand that
when he hears the word "whoa" he is to
stop at Duce, and this word should never
bo used to a horse unless the driver is
p spared to make him atop short. Some
horses strike the hind and lore feet to-
gether, and to remade this the shoes
should he male to fit the hoof exactly,
and a little extra weight p'aeed on the
front part of the shoes of the fore feet
and the same on the roar part of the hind
foot shoes. A simple way to cure e, horse
of that most disagreeable of all habits,
baulking, wee to hitch them up with a.
g'od horse, put a chain round his body,
bring ft out under his legs and attach it
to the tongue of the rig. Then when ho
baulks he will hurt his back, and the re.
salt will be. he will s.:an discontinue it.
A horse clan be cured of "cribbing" by
fastening him to a stone wall and letting
him feed from the ground. If a horse
shows a disposition 10 run away when-
ever he gets an opportunity, tie a rope 1
with a noose around hie nose, have the
end of it within reach in the oonve • ante
and if ho attempts to start away pull the
rope and shut off his wind. He will not
go far. The lecturer explained points of ;
breeding, showed how to tell a horse's '
age by tbo teeth, and told his auditors
many things of interest, some of which
they already knew and some of which
they did not know.
