RETIRES AFTER 42 YEARS
Mr. T. G. Sloinan, who has been
with the Canadian National Railway
formerly the old Grand Trunk, for
the past forty-two years, has reached
the age limit and is being retiredon
pension this week, completing his
term on Tuesday evening, Mr, She
elan has been baggage man and shed
man and had -become so much a part
of the place that Clinton station will
hardly seem like Clinton station with-
out "Jake" to look after things., He
will now find more time to cultivate
his garden, which has always been a
source of pride to him, and can take
things easier during his declining
Years.
. .
Mr, John Quailb of,Seaforth is the
new man, who is already' in his new
post. Mr. Quaill will ramie his fam-
ily to Clinton and for the time being
will occupy the apartments above the
shoe and tailor _shops opposite the
poatoffice but in a few weeks will get
possession of the residence now occu-
pied by Mr. and lVfxs. 15. L. IvTittell.
THE TOWN HALL STAGE
The citizens of Clinton ...and com-
munity for some years have felt that
the town hall stage needed to be com-
pletely renovated. The members of
the local branch of the. Woman's In-
stitute, who have in the past proven
themselves,very publiceepirited, have
now taken up this work, with the per-
mission of the town council, who have
already laid a new floor and put in a
new ceiling.
As ie will necessarily cost the or-
ganization considerable financially;
pcssbily in the neighborhood of some
three hundred' dollars, they, would
greatly appreciate any financial help
which can be rendered them by pri-
vate contributions as well as through
the various societies and clubs of the
town and community.
'Surely this is one public matter in
which every true -hearted and loyal
citizen' who has the interests. and
credit of the town at heart, will con-
cur and assist to the extent of their
ability. -
The Woman's Institute is an or-
ganization which works exclusively
for the common good of the commun-
ity, It has Ito selfish ends, it's only
aim and end is ,service to the commun-
ity. -/
CROPS IN HURON COUNTY
Assistant District Representative G.
A. McCague, in reply to a question by
The News -Record as to the effect on
the crops of Huron County of the ex-
cessive rains we have, had recently,
gave us the.following little statement
regarding. conditions. It looks as if
Huron were not going to suffer.from
famine in this year of grace:
"In a normal year it 10 rather unus-
eat to find farmers cutting alfalfa
hay, wheat and barley'irz one locality
on the same day. This year the heavy
rain fall has interfered with Plans and
instead of having an intermission be-
tween haying and harvest both opera-
tions are being carried on at the same
time. -
The hay crop in general is good
and of fine spiality. The yield per
acre will not be high because of the
late start in the Spring. However, no
one is complaining about the yield
but it is"difficult to "make hay while
the Sun shines" if the sun fails to
shine and we get rain instead. There
has been considerable hay spoiled and
a latge percentage badly damaged by
the continual wet weather, Those
growing alfalfa alWays linve more
than one chance. It Can't rain all the
time and possibly the weather will
be more seasonable when the secoed
cutting of alfalfa, which promises' to
be heavy, is ready': -
The grain crops are all looking well.
Pields of fall wheat which looked little
better than half a crop last spring are
going to, give geed aVerage returns.
Comparing it with other Counties the
fall wheat in Huron ranks well. The
spring grains are possibly a little fur-
ther advanced than they are in Most
yeare. In predicting yields it would
be.safe to say that many barley fields
should run as high es 50 buehele per
acre, and oats 65 and 70 bushelper
acre... Considerieg the heavy reins
most of the grain is 'standing well, In
'the ceptral'and northern parts of the
country there is some damage done.
Oats have suffered most and 'with the
excessive moisture there is danger of
,
The bean growers in South Heron
were worried. by the wet' weather.
While the beano were showing a Yel-
lowish tinge a,&,ae weeks ago they' are
looking better now and the ;worst
must be over: Corn and root crepe
are making rapid greWth,
In going over „Heron, County et -the
present time it looks like g9od• year
to be farming and there. is' everV,
