So much wet weather is barring the way for the putting is of a big Fall wheat crop this season, so a number of farmers say: No more harvesters are needed in the West as there was so much idle labor out there the supply ,already equals the demand: Aalsi raids now fill a leading place in connection with the great military af- fairs in Europe, Some of the crusaders do very daring stunts in this day of quick firing guns.

IN Kansas city the all night jitneys are called the "Owl" service. We know a few people who could qualify for such tasks if staying up half the night would fill the bill.

Soma of the School Board, in the larger centres have been perplexed over a certain style of teacher who is often absent through illness.

WE already have more students enrolled for the coming year than have ever entered at a Fall Term Opening in the history of the School. Our aim Is to enroll io o new Students during the School Year from September 19r5 to June 1916, and if successful in this—and we fully expect to be— we will share our profits by handing each stud':nt registered during the year, a check for . 10 per cent of the Tuition Paid. Our past record in fair dealing, coupled with the success of our ex -students and graduates, who, by the way, are our best advertisements, is going to enable us to reach our ideal of 100 New Students for Profit Sharing Year Write now and let us know when you are coming. The best time to enter is at our Fall opening—or as early after that date as possible. ADDRESS Edwin G. Matthews, Principal li LISTOWEL BUSINESS COLLEGE E William R Travers, ex -manager of the Farmers' B.snk, who bas now served over three years and a half of his six- year sentence in Portsmouth penitenti- ary, will, it is reported, be released next month, Fire which broke out late Monday night in the Lyman Lumber yards, Sault Ste. Marie, fauned by a high wind, spread rapidly and for a time threatened the city. The yards extend over three acres. The blaze is believed to have been caused by a firebug. Balzer Wieker, aged 65 years, one of the best-known residents of Normauby Township, died very suddenly at his home from an attack of heart -failure while visiting his sister, Mrs. Martin Bender, near Avton. He was the third member of the family to die suddenly in three weeks. His brother Frederick died suddenly three weeks ago Satur- day and his sister the next day. The Speakers' Patriotic League has decided to cancel all engagements of Prof. F. V. Riethdorf, the naturalized German pi ofessor of Woodstock College, who has been addressing meetings in the interests of the Allies, pending an investigation into the advisability of having a speaker of German birtb on the platform. The league has received many complaints urgiog that a German should not be engaged to address Cana- dians on the subject of loyalty Win.

A CHAT ABOUT BEES Following sketch ie taken from the Weekl'y Sun, Toronto :- This has proved to be a good honey year and 0. Mitchell's honey crop has proved to be a good one too, averag- ing well up to the average for the Province, if not slightly above it. Mr. Mitchell is a pioneer bee -keeper at what was once Moleeiv i•th, but is now a stop on a rural mail route and be has been there for forty years. A short time ago when that district was setved from the Listowel post office and given a daily mail service, Molesworth as a post ol;9ce disappear- ed from Ontario and through the centre of the little hamlet modern mall boxes cluster at every door. This year Mr. Mitchell hoe harvest. ed 6,000 pouiuis of einem: honey front less than 110 oolonlee, Spring ennnt, which nnutbee be inoi.'eaaed to 116, The past Spring was trot favorable to bene, even here, coldweather just at the wrong time seemed to stunt the bees and got these off to a poor, start, but even at that, the e oneY crop has turned out well. Last year was a blank year, said Mr, Mitchell 'tit as nd a w e worst in the forty-one years that I have been keep. ing beea here.. I had to pay $180 for sugar to feed the bees and even then 1 didn't feed enough, because it was 80 hard to get. I needed the sugar just after• the war started and when the scare was on. People buying it so fast then just because they were afraid there wouldn't be any soon for sale, that I couldn't get enough Inc my own needs. The result was some loss, but others in the district have Buffered from loss during the last Winter and Spring also. Mr. Mitchell has one of the finest work shops that could be desired, in which he spends his time with the bees. It is of such a size as to ahnoet qualify as a "honey factory," though of course it is out in the orchard under the trees that the actual work of honey manufacture goes on. Having a long conneotinn as a honey producer, Mr, Mitchell has no difficulty in securing sales for all the honey he can produeeand a great deal more if he had it. People come tn his place from all parts of the neighbor- hood driving as much as ten miles or move in order to lay in a stook of the nectar. Then in addition to this, there are hundreds of people from that corner of Ruron and Perth who have "gone West" and to other parts of the continent, and whn write back, ordering enure of this honey, Hundred pound orders nee common, while a number of 400 -pound ones were under way when The Sun visited the place last week. These orders go to Revelstoke and 'Victoria, B. 0., arid Edmonton, Alta., ete., and tine the re- sult of personal acquaintance with the producer. "I am told we use too much sugar," said Me. Mitchell, "I understand, and I believe it too, that the human stone• ash can not digest sugar, but that it goes to the liver and kidneys to he handled. The stomach can't handle it ; while it is claimed that, honey is digested in the stomach without any trouble, Then, honey has medicinal properties, anti is slightly laxative.

This year has been a fair average year for honey, but very much above the last three ones, and the bees ate now off the clover; working on golden rod and buckwheat. Years ago the yields need to be bet- ter, said the veteran, who remembers the days when basswood was plentiful enough to be the main standby for the bees. Then, there were large acres of partially cleared land which were in- fested with Canada Thistles, which served at least one good purpose - they formed a splendid banquet for the bees. Those were dAys when in 1883, Mr. Mitchell made 8108 from one colony of bees, by securing 812 pounds of honey.

CARTER'S, Agent Brussels THE AUTO.OILED WINDMILL WITH DUPLICATE DEARS RUNNINO IN OIL Every bearing is constantly flooded with oil. Two quarts of oil in the gear case of this 8 -foot auto -oiled windmill will keep the gear and every bearing flooded with oil for a year or more. The galvanized steel helmet covers the gears. keeps out rain, keeps out dust, keeps in oil. The mill needs oiling but once a year. There is a windmill, known the world over as"the windmill which runs when all others stand stili." This new windmill with gears and bearings flooded with axons in much less wind than that well known windmill. The two largo gears, which lift the load straight up, are each independent of the other and each is driven by its own pinion on the main shaft and must take its half of the load at all times. Theauto-oiledwindmih,withitaduplicate gears and two pitmen ltftine the load straight up, le un- breakable. Every 8 -foot mill is tested underapumpingload of 3000pounds on the pump rod, For the Inner sizes the load is proportionately greater. We know that every one of these windmills is. unbreakable. We watery the assertion that this Is the most nearly perfect, best made, best tested. best oiled, most nearly perpetual, automatic and self- sufficient of any machine of any kind ever made for farm work and the most nearly fool -proof. There is nofrictian an any part of the furl. Ing device when the mill is running and very littlewhemthe wheel is furled: nnntesessitit A small child ma easllyjfurl tide windmill or an automatic r gulator can take caro Of ft. One of these mills has been furled 15,990 Limes re one day by a man on our premises -more times than It would ordinarily be furled in 30 y ars on acrrlce. A band brake, of the automobile type, i9 Used, end it always holds. The gear case contains `two pairs of gears and the supply of oil. From this gear case the oil circulates to every bearing in a constant stream. It flows out through the friction washers in the hub of the wheel and is automatically returned to the gear case. Not a drop of oil can escape. It is used over and over. So long as there is any oil in the gear case the gears and every bearing will be flooded with oil. If you are tired of climbing a windmill tower; If you are tired of buying repairs and having them put on; or, if you are tired of waiting fora big wind, tet us fur- nish you an unbreakable, self -oiling, ever -going mill to go on any old tower. It goats but little and you will get the, difference between no water In a Tight wind and an abundance of water in almost no Wind. The flooding of all the working parts with oil, the perfect balance of the wheel and vane on the tower, the very small turntable on which the mill pivots and the outside furling device make this difference. Now there is no objection to a high tower. Have as high a tower as you need to get wind. You don't have to climb it. Your dealer can come once a year and put in oil, if needed, and inspect the mill. w Running water purifies itself --stagnant water. standing watercotlects and retatnelmpur. idea.
