A sanitary engineer from the de- partment of Public Health, Tornnto, was in Listowel and was inclined to attribute the cause of water con- temination to infection from cess- pools in the vicinity of the wells.

The vacantruuln h, s been splendidly equipped as a 01ienee room for the Uontitinetion class. Of the 122 teachers, 17 ,u•e men and 105 women. At the beginning of the ye.r there were 22 sten teaching in the Ls- spectm•ate. Of these the following have enlisted :—A. L. Posliff, princi- pet of 1Vinghom public school ; Nor- man Geddes, S. S. No. 8, 131111711, Rnbl. Hoover, S. S. No. '7, McKillop ; W. 11. Stafford, S. S. 4, Howlett Leslie Winch, Bluevale public school. We honor them in obeying the call of their country, The returns from the Township Clerks indicate such rt decrease in the population between 5 and 21 years of age as enlistment would account for, The School population on the other hand, obotv9 a slight increase, - the average attendance, however, shows a decrease of 100. This has been, owing partly to the prevalence of epidemic diseases in the entity part of the year when several schools were closed for two or three weeks and pertly to the need of all the help possible on the fauns. In most of the cases into which I inquired I found the need of such help very urgent. In other cases, of course it was made an excuse for avoidable ir•regulat' attendance. The grants paid by Ole government this year were on the same basis as those of last year and amounted to about the same sum. There was in addition a grant of $270 for school libraries purchased during the year, All the schools in the inspectorate now have libraries, with values ranging Grain Much Better Filled H. RICHARD, Dorchester, Ontario, says "I used Homestel(d Bone Black Feltilizer on four acres of oats hast Spring with very good results. The field consisted of tee acres of sod, half of which had been matured the pre• vious year, while in meadow, and we applied the fertilizer 200 pounds to the acre to the balance of the field. The growing crop showed much better geowth all through the season where the fertilizer was used than where it had been manurecl, and at the time of cuttiug the grain seemed touch better filled." GOOD FOR 25 PER CENT GRAiN GEORGE W. ADDY, Ethel, Ontario, says : "This is to certify that I purchased some Homestead Bone Black Fertili- zer last Spring from your agent, Mr. J. K.

A large n mitre • at the High Schools however, received their certificates in this way. The plan has its abuses but the purpose justifies it.
