COST HIM TWENTY -POUR. A young chap came down from Goderich on Thursday of last week "pretty well corned." He was so noticably so that a Samaritan at the station advised him not to go -up town, adding "It you do the cop will gather you in." However, he was The C. N.

The moral is : Don't the probabilities for the following come to Clinton with too console- day as well, So when arranging for • uous a load of booze,- either inside a picnic or other outing a glance at or in kegs. . • the bulletin today will give one an idea as to what may be expected in the ONE WAY OF MAKING MONEY. Way of weathem r toorrow. Wheth- Mr. -D. °enteren has for years ad- er thie chatige will have any material vocated the cultivating and- spraying of orchards as a means: to an end, the end being greater profit to: the orchardist. As the seasons , roll a- long and his • experience • widens he becomes more and more convinced of this. Last week he bought 1800 barrels and 4300 boxes of apples from Mr. C. J. Harris of Ingersoll, who has orchards: of his own and rents other. M. Harris ivas formerly in the Government eniploy and went about the country preaching the bettex care of orchards. What Ire preached he now outs into practice. He cultiv- ates his orchards and sprays them at proper. intervals. He also has his trees gone carefully over •early in the season and all the small and inferior apples picAd oft which is better for those which remain and brings a- bout an even crop. Mr. Cantelon says that in' all his long experience he hover saw such apples on ,trees. Over ninety per- cent will be No. 1. . Mr. Hartis will have all his boxed fruit individually wrapped and has brought over, a high -salaried Ameri- can expert to teach hib men how to do' it. The apples are carefully sel- ected wrapped and packed in tiers and will command the highest price going. They are chiefly intended for the cheice: .Onterio • market 'though some of 'them will be shipped west. For the Harris Stook it is needless to say,. the ;highest possible price was Paid and there has been • com- petition among the big dealers to MOVING INTO TOWN. Mr. W. Crich, the courier of R. 11. No, 5, who has been residing upon the- London Road a mile south, has decided to move into town and has rented Mr. John Snider's house On Huron street. The couriers ate find- ing that it is necessary, in order to save time and wear and tear of out- fit, to get as max the postal, centre as possible. LITTLE LOCALS. A meeting of the Local Option com- mittee was held; on) Tuesday eyeing when the working out of the law, was tally dieleussed Gratifying reportivere received from the ward committees regarding the benefits already re- sulting and it was .decided that every assistance should be given the local officers in having a Strict obser- vance ot the law. In order to make the enforcing 'of Local Option more effective it was decided to offer a reward or twenty-five dollars for in- formation which will lead to the convietion of anyone selling liqour Within the municipality. :11,LI:SPEAK WELL OF HY'DRO, The Hydro pole planters are now within three miles or Goderich and in a very shott time will have- 'com- pleted their work. Everybody says they are making a splendid job. .ds one good farmer said : "Survey the poles from an elevation and so straightly planted are they that they beam as but one pole." The tree -trimming gang ate busy on their portion of the work and are pushing it along as rapidly as pos- sible. Between tile Hydro wire and tree tops at least ten feet must in- tervene. Should they touch there would be trouble, The Bell Telephone people can learn not a little but much from the Hydro management in the matter of poles, planting, etc. Anything that has the length is apparently good enough for the Bell's, that is in pole A 'LITTLE CHANGE, News -Record to Jan. 1914 for 25c.

The :talk was very inter- esting and fall of humour. » His des- cription of the social life and habits of the people was illustrated by cos- tumes with which several of the young people of the congregation ar- rayed themselves. A special feature was the costumes worn and the man- ner of a native marriage ceremony. There was a good turnout and the theevening's program was niuch en- joyed.News-Record to Jan. • for 250, Miss Susie Acheson was in Gode- rich on Saturday last. - .

He pleaded not guilty, and the case was dlseniss- ed. It appears that a mistake 'was made, and that the accused hadi not had his car in the city on the date of the offence or for a month before that, yet he had to come 120 miles to plead to the charge. He had to bear this expense and loss or time because a policeman blundered and because no one .had gone to the trouble to find out if he liad really been in the city --Tuesday's Mail and Empire. The citizen referred to is Mr. A. J. McMurray. COSTS MUST BE MEI'. •• It is somewhat understood that the Centre Huron license board will ask the town council to set aside one hundred dollars to defray the ex- pense of . enforcing Local Option. ' This is a duty that devolves upon the municipalities which are expected effectupon the weather remains to be to recoup themselves out of the fin - seen, but looking at the matter from all points The News -Record is in- clined to the opinion that we'll just have to take it at it collies • as heretofore. • C.
