Ile tbiu,krd the clerk for hie kin words and the council for hie eleetion Following, es he did, a long line 0 good wardens (and last yell is ;verde Was surelya popular cine) he felt b needed the sympathy of all the conn ell. He would do 'hid best. It w as ;melees to owe ecoliowy ; the new members would be held in check by :the old ones. Something be thought the council should take more interest in was ed- ucation. The county- was paying $85,000 a year, to the schools but i seemed that . the estimates for this were passed with lees thought than would be devoted to a emeli ditch. The rates continued to rise but the county took so little interest that the council did not even send a delegate to the Educational Convention in Toronto. As rvehy0i a knows in Huron Oeuney political considerations to the appointment of a warden are got rid of by the selection hi alternate years of a warden hem each of the parties. Reeve Johnston of Aehtleld raised the question if this eyeteeth of considering a man's politics could not be got away from. The proper eons 1452 ations were the mane qualifications for the office irrespective of his political stripe, and, further the system put such as he, who claimed to be inde- pendent, in a peculiar position. 1dr. Jobnstou's ideas found no support, however, The position of auditor of criminal justice accounts is one which bee us- ually gone to the runner up for the position of warden, but rival motions were made this year. one nominating Mr. Klopp for tbe position and the other Mr. Hanley, From the Liber- al table came complaints against the departure from the old agreement by which the office would go to the run- nel up for warden, to which Reeve Middleton replied that be thought aft- er the appointment of warden, all other appointments should be made by a democratic vote, and, in answer to further objections the answer came from the Conservative table that it was the Libei•ais who first broke faith in the !natter of the appointment of auditor of criminal al accounts. the appointment w cut toa vote and Mr. Hanley bad the major support, and, therefore he and the county clerk are the auditors of criminal justice accounts for the year 1925. By a change by which b idges on designated roads in the county sys- tem and boundary bridges were made part of the system in order to receive the Government grant, County En- gineer Patterson pointed out that they could come under the supervis- ion of the Good Roads Commission, and as the only roads left were town- ship roads, a road and bridge come mittee was no longer necessary. It could be retained but would only be a duplication. The advisability of retaining the committee was referred to the striking committee to look In- to and report. The strikingcommittee consisted of Messrs, Middleton, Neeb, McKib- ben., Beattie and Inglis, a motion for her appointment t defeating one for the appointment of Messrs Baeker, Hays, Geiger, McDonald and Beattie. Reeve !McQuaid raised the question of the appointment of rural repre- aentatives on the Collegiate Institute boards of the county. As the county paid about fifty per cent, of the up- eep he thought ft only right that the rural communities' should be re- presented on the boards, The War- den gave the information that Col- borne township had a representative on the G. 0. h board and Reeve Shun• ninge said it was working well. The trustee from Colborne was a valuable man and the people of the country were taking greater interest in the Collegiate. Wingham and Clinton representatives said the same system would probably be adopted anotber year in their ` 1 i Go le late s. happen- ed 7 It a e - g pp n ed Chat the roan whose tern! expired in Wingham this year was too good a man to drop. The Warden pointed Out the rural representative would need to be one who lived near the town in order to attend board meet- ings but there was no obstacle in the way of the appointment of men from the country. The electric, wiring fn the Court House is out of date and dangerous according.to a letter from the county clerk which brought the matter to the attention of the council. The wires are too small to carry the load put upon them and fusee frequently blow out. Insulation ie in some pia- cee worn off and the installation would net meet modern ideas of safe. ty. Above the court room, where were stored many. papers, exposed wired might some time start a fire which would prove costly, The building watt insured for 0)25,000 and would probably cost five or six times that to rebuild. It would cost from $500 to te1,000 for rewiring, 'Chia !natter will be looked into by A commibtee, Huron County is asked to compete ate with Middlesex ()aunty in eecue. ince legislabion which will • proteee .beep raisers from the change done CAR G F National Fertilizer and Tankage COMING To arrive about MarchI off a Special ri a. f Car c As I will be unable to tell on everyone I wish to nnlify the tannic that I nen palling Tankage, 60%, off carat $2.85P er cwt.

As the county pays for cuunty pupils out of money raised in part by levy on the towns and the bowns ply for their own pupile, it was felt the towns were not treated fairly, 13y the •chanue Gnderich` for instanee would receive back $1800. County Clerk Holman also pointed out that,in Ontario there were High School districts, taking in adjoining townshipe : in Huron et uuty the High School district included imly tbe town in which the school is located, which made the maintenance fell more largely on the town.

Fruit Invades Once Famous Apple District, By S. 8, Stotbers, Agl. Reproaentativa Agricultural eond'itione in Huron dur- ing 1924 have been decidedly on the mend. We have had good crops In 'the county; hr feet, we have seidom. had better, end p'rices! halve incireased quite materially. To be specific, not for 25 years have we reaped as 'good a wheat harvest as we had in 1924, On torp of this, the price is 25 :10 35cent5 per bushel better than last year. This in itself is a decided advantage to the farmers. With •reference to oats, bar- ley and bu'ek'wheft, of Nelda 'large quantl'tles are grewo in this county, a good crap' was harvested, in fact, close to a record one, and prices are improv- ed approximately 25 per cent. over lash year. The county also reaped a record crop of hay. The price ,has been rather dis- couraging, but this is not entirely a misfortune, as we conrider the con- tinued selling of hay a> one of the most ruinous of farm praetices, when conservation of sons fertility is, con- sidered. Barns and silos are "pressed dawn full and running over" w.th feed for live stock this winter. LIVE STOCK. As 4o live stock, sheep at present hold the center of the stage. Good prices have 'been maintained for sheep 'products during tee entire year, and a large number of farmers are turning their attention 4o. this !class of stock, which has been described as the "gol- den hoof". Hogs have also materially impeoved in price, compared with a year ago. However, tele high price of feed is making the farmer grumble at •tb.e ,c0mpara'tively lone value of hogs. With regard to ca'tt.e and horses, the situation is not se e'heerful. Cat. tle prices have not been good, and very few horses are ohanging hands. There have been, of course, a few horses taken out of the county during the past( year, but the industry seams to be in the "bottom: of the valley" "here, and 'has been for some years. Although the live stock business is in good shape in the county, and Is, of course„ the sheet anchor of agriculture here.Poultry, too, receives increases at- tenttion every year, and we hear glow- ing reports from some of those porches ing poultry of the improved quality from year to year. A few items with reference to the fruit situation in Huron will be timely. in 1924 there was .harvested a eery light crop of apples, pbssibly 10,000 or 15,000 barrels. No industry in the county has gone sie dor backward es the fruit industry. There are' acres and acres of orchards in tills county awaiting orchardists to look after them. Poor prices and lack of care seem :o have discouraged most farmers with a reference to this once important in- dustry. To hlustrtte the situation, re- ference may be made to the sale of Bnitish Columbia applets here during the past few years. Bnlltis'h Columbia apples shave been sold in our stores for some years, not in Marge quantities, it is true, but the very fact that they can be sold at ail indle4tes that some- ing is wrong with tree industry here. However, during the year there bane beet( indications of •renewed interest among -the farmerts in this business, New sprayers have been bought; some orchards have •been pruned' an ferti- lized, and are receiving attention which they have not been ,given for the last 20 or 25 years, lI 11ds work be One tlnuecl we feel set(Islied that improve, meet will he made aiQitg the lilies of eru(t growing. 1ifrcDreaiarysin ingg ,init bmea yx 0b0e31�slowly is il0 wly SP!•ENDID CONNECTIONS MME 3'OR SASKATOON AND EDMONTON BY THE VANCOUVER EXPRESS.

J.F.M. VETERAN PASTOR RECALLS LLS I STORM IN 1875 Reminiscences frons Rev, D. Rogere, Formerly of Huron County, Now Superannuated at St. Thomas. St. Thomas,, Jan. 16-A half century in the 'service of Gal is the enviable record of the Rev. David Rogers, of this city, who on Sunday last preached his fiftieth anniversary sermon• since entering the ministry of the, Methodist . Church of Canada. Mn. Rogers retired from the ministry about five and a half years ago and isnce then ha's been very active filling In and preaching special services practically every Sunday since his retirement. During the course of his ministry be 'has been in charge of congregations in many cities and towns in this part of Ontario, 'his first tclrurch being In Arthur. Of his experiences in Arthur Mr. Rogers staters "A vacancy had been created on Arthur mission of the Methodist church by the illness of the junior nreac'her and i' was deputed by the' chairman of Whitby district, Rev. Jahn Bredin, to go and supple the dis- abled minister's lack of service. My compliance was the commencement of a 'hall century of happy and contented ministerial labor. Recnlls Tie-up.

It snowed or . stormed almost every day that winter and the Tononto, Grey t4 Bruce trains did not get through from 'Orangeville to Teeswater until the first week of April, During my some 30 years in Huron and Bruce there was on•iy one winter that trains were block- ed on that road; that was in 3904, when we were 18 da aria days without hearing a whistle' or seeing a train. Withal we were nappy and healthful. "A4 that time Arthur was quite new, but very active, wen about 800 people. Our .congregations in this town quite filled the church and we had one ap- pointment in each of the four adioining townships—Maryborougllt, Peel, Luther and Garafraxa;" Remains Active. After serving as asslsitant pastor in London for four years, Mr. Rogers re- tired in St, Thomas 'soave five and a hailf years sago, 4vbere he previously spent, a pastorate.
