This information will il come m as as unpleasant surprise to cottage owners at the lake beacbes, who thought they were occupy- ing a sort of no.mau's-land where sites were free. While only a few were by the taxes, the Government took that view of it also, but itis evident that such an arrangement could not endure when the government strip along the lake be- came extensively occupied.

R. Somerville, the township has lost one of its best and most highly respected residents, and Huron County has lost another of that great bund of pioneers, who by their undaunted courage and • hard work made this county one of the gardens of Ontario. Tuesday previous to his death Mr. Scott suffered a slight stroke and gradually grew worse until Thursday morning, when he passed peacefully to the Great Beyond. Deceased was born at Eildrige, near Edinbnrougb, Scotland, in 1840. In 1871 he was united in marriage to Mies Elizabeth Elliott, of the same place and 2 yeses later they, with their infarct son, James, left to make a home for them- selves in Canada, arriving here on Dominion Day. Foe a- short time they resided in Seaforth and then moved to the 7th Con. of McKillop, where they lived until 1883, when Mr, Scott purchased a farm on the 13th Con. where he has resided for up- wards of 40 years. He was a fine type of the old Scotch pioneer race, in- dustrious, generous and kind ; a :true friend, a helpful and obliging neigh- bor, qualities and character which gained for him the respect and esteem of all who knew him.

' Mullins. (Montreal, -Sounding a note of'the strongest possible faith in, and optimism for, the future of the agri- culturalist in Western Canada, CoI- onel H. A. Mullins, prominent ranch- er of Poplar Point, Manitoba, who arrived in Montreal on Sunday, sub- mated to an interview yesterday. "The situation on the prairies is rapidly improving,' the Colonel de- clared, "and the Westerner is taking courage. Moreover, many of those who in recent years left the farm are returning. I consider the tide in Western Canada is beginning to turn _strongly from the eity to the farm once mare. The three prairie provinces especially have a tremen- dous future, and, if due consideration - Is given to their particular needs, the realization of that future cannot be long deferred.' Asked to mention some of the in- fluences which, in his opinion, would tend to Basten the Golden Age for Western Canada the Colonel unhesi- tatingly pleaded first for a better un- derstanding between East and West. "The Western farmer can also do a great deal to help himself," the Colonel added."I consistently advo- cate that all farmers out there should go in for raising livestock as well as other stuff, especially for raising high-grade stock, and that those now in that game should stick to it. They should also stop crowd- ing their shipments -and this ap- plies not only to livestock but to other products, such as grain -into three months o the or ao ofhe year. Then they won't find themselves forced to take low prices be- cause of the rush, and things will be bettor for the country, generally as well." Despite many recent setbacks, there is, the Colonel is convinced, a world market for good Western cat- tle. The demand from the United Kingdom he says, has been constant and heavy since the Lifting' of the embargo, though it has boon affected adversely b3` the recent elosffig of Liverpool, Glasgow and some otber ports on account of the outbreak of foot and mouth disease. Colonel eiullins is in an excellent position to speak with authority on the cattle situation, for he has been shipping cattle overseas steadily and intends to continue. Recently be shipped 148 head from Winnipeg to Montrone The train supplemented bY carscontaining 100 additional head from Toento left the We stern city at 10 p.m, on Wednesday via Canadian Pacific and arrived at the stock -yards here on Sunday morning, the Colonel following them up by a passenger train which left Winnipeg on Thursday night, The sbimnent is bound for Dundee via St. John, N.13, 'Pete Colonel paid a warm tri= bute to the Company for the manner in which it had handled his consign - merit "The shrinkage in weight wee tlnn8014113' light," he stated, "and not only did they make up this loss of weight In a few hours in the Ceti - adieu pacific yards here, but they are already heavier than they were In Winnipeg. This experience, and• .my temperate*. of these yards, has c0nvineed-tun that ranchers ` may shill their rattle via Canadian Peel - fie with cprtfidenne that they will be splendidly and rapidly handled." owes Quantity of Hand Towels to clear out at almost Man- ufacturers' Prices : 1 dozen regeler 50e at 35e 1 doz.
