How LONG WILL A HORSE LIVE?—
"Faoaie," the browu driving mare own-
ed by James Evans, Brussels South, is
22 yeRls old but looks as if she were
good for a number of years yet. 'She
was raised by George Robb, St. Cather-
ines, formerly of town, and has always
had good care, present owner buying
her from Mr. Robb. A comparison of
"Fanny" with some other equines for
looks or trustworthiness will necessarily
be in favor of the former.

CLIMBING 'TREES AT 90 YEARS.—One
day last week THE POST witnessed a
sight not often on the program, It con-
sisted of the veterau George Crooks,
over 90 years of age, pruning trees in. D,
Ewan's garden. He was not attending
to business standing on the ground but
mounting a ladder bad, like Zaccbeus of
old, climbed tree and'with saw in hand
was lopping off the surplus limbs. Mr.
Crooks performed similar work for the
Misses Holmes, David Ross and others.
It may be a trifle risky but the incident
is worth chronicling as it is one in
Io,000 probably. Mr. Crooks is an
expert at the pruning job and a marvel
for his years.
