OLD PORT COMING BACK Earliest port in the Kincardine districts Stoney Island, also called. Port Head, 'is coming into its own again, with the erection of a summer colony there. - In '1850,, when thispart of West - est Ontario was opened, boats, did 'a thriving trade, at Stoney. Island, three miles north of Kincardine, landing passengers and supplies there. A harbor, stores and other buildings flourished, bot in 1857 a storm carried away the worehousee on the island. This 'summer a pier has been built on the south side of the island, af- fording a landing place for small^ boats and fourcottageshave been built not far from the original set- tlement.

Making a Living from Worms Dew worm avenue is being sug- gested •as a new name for e.. street in Barrie, owing to the countless signs advertising 'the' sale of dew - worms. Like taking in tourists over- inight,, it is a profitable business, and there are said to' be 300 people who live on earth -worms during the summer months in Midland alone. People there who are cut obi relief during the summer make a living gathering and selling dew -worms to fishermen at a cent apiece or $1 per 100. A dealer there says he sells 10,000 a week, and figures there must be about ten times as many sold in that town. The pickers are paid 25e a hundred, -so they Make much more if they can sell them dir- ect to the trade instead of to deal- ers. The man who sells 10,000 a week has 16 people on his payroll, and they spend the hours other peo- ple are sleeping in gathering the worms. The pickers are mostly women, girls and boys. They must keep the worms two days, and, if they are then alive and full of ging- er, the dealer buys therm, puts them in clamp moss for two weeks, feeds them, and then sells then out. One active young lad, selling worms at the wharf, is reputed to make be- tween $500 and $000 a year. Just a Printer's Error What a difference one little lettet makes. The other day while read- ing a daily paper we came across this startling heading, 'I"Scalded, Child Wanders; Leads Hunt for Hours". Reading the article we learn- ed that a little lad near Glencoe had wandered away from home and was last seen near a cornfield ad- joining a bush a short distance from his home. We also learned that instead of the word "scalded", the unfortunate lad had merely been scolded. Yes, he was found a few hours later and everyone was happy except the malt who set the headinig for the article. We imagine he knows all about print- ers errors by this time, As an aet of courtesy we won't[mention the name of the paper. We make mis- takes ourselves.

Lord Tweedsmuir To Visit International Plowing Match, October 13th Governor-General Of Canada to be Guest of Honor at World's Largest Plowing Match, the International, Near Barrie, Thursday, October 13, Toronto, July 31:—An official visit by ilis l8xcellency,, Lord Tweedsmuir, Governor-General of Canada, to the International Plowing Thatch at Mine: sing, near Barrie, Ont., on Thursday, October i'3th, was announced today 'by J. A Carroll, Manager of this an- neal agricultural :event, the greatest glowing match not only in the Br= tisk Empire, but in the entire world. Last year the attendance was over 109,000 at the four day event and this record,' it' is expected, will to shatter- ed this year. The dates are October filth to lith inclusive. 'There is no doubt,"said ➢ir. Car- roll, "that the \invitation of the On- tario Plowmen's Association was ac- cepted by His I3xcellency because of his genuine interest in all phases of agriculture a n d particularly good Plowing ' and fine horses." Scotland, the birthplace of. Lord Tweedsmuir, is rich in plowing lore, and her sons, well -skilled in the art, have transplaatea a desire for good cultivation in every part of the Bri- tish 'Empire, particularly Canada, where for over 100 years .plowing matebes have been held. "While there may be 79 or more modern and powerfaL tractors in oper- ation on a limey day double that num- ber, about 1410 competitors, will use strong reliable and well-groomed hoe- ses, the cream of the plowing teams in Canada. "A Horse Show is a spe- cial feature of the Match" said Mr. Carroll. As His Excellency has expressed a desire to spend about three hours at Minesing, his hosts, the officers. of the Ontario Plowmen's Association are planning an interesting itinerary, which will permit an inspection of the nearby Forestry plantation, some of the good farms in the area, the tent- ed city, with its numerous exhibits er farnn implements and home conveni- ences, practical field demonstrations and other interesting features. We believe, said Mr. Carroll, "that His Excellency will watch the plowing contests with a knowing and keen In- terest, and should he decide to put his hand to the plow, thee is no doubt a furrow straight, balanced and well packed, will follow him across the field."

WE HOPE FOR THE BEST It is to be hoped the rumours com- ing out of the West about the grass- hopper plague are greatly exaggerat- ed.. They seem to be, judging from news dispatches, One would think these rumours were Behead by some - ono interested is boosting the price of wheat, but where this would bane - fit is hard to say,• Immediately after the news that the West was being, eaten up ,'ly grasshoppers game the reassuring news that the plague was hot nearly as bad as et first reported. We trust the West is not going through any more years of depression: and that the crops in that part of the country Bold tip to Spring expects tions. Westerners, especially in the drought areas, have put up with enough these past seven or eight. years and should have a respite. We would like to see a few good years in the West and have former residents of Ointerio come back home in thewinter sporting the coon"coats they used to wear in days gone by. —Durham Chronicle.
