It seems that the twin -motored aircraft was flying low and the top of a tree was taken off, throwing it out of control with the result that it skimmed the edge of the woods, a wing striking a large tree and breaking in two. About 200 feet from this tree it crashed. Bad flying weather was given as the cause of the erasb, !months. Born in Clinton, Huron Fire Sweeps Through Clinton.

The blaze was soon discovered as smoke seeped through to the outside. Both the fire bell and the fire siren were sounded to call the fire brigade. The fire had evidently been smouldering for some, time as when the door was opened the draught caused the blaze to sweep the entire store.

A regrettable feature of the fire is that it will be difficult to replenish the stock under present war conditions..

Mr, Snell spent abot a month in the West, visiting one of the larger cattle ranches in Saskatchewan, where he purchased the animals. They are of pure-bred stock. Mr. Snell made his headquarters while in the West at Moose Jaw, Sask. The crops in that district have been ex- ceptionally good this summer and when he left there about one-third of the wheat was still to be harvested. Altogether he purchased seven loads of cattle and disposed of two of them on the Winnipeg market. While at Winnipeg he met Rev. W. A. and Mrs. Donnelly, who wished to be remembered to their old Exeter friends. Mr. Snell will accommodate the .majority of the cattle in his own barn for feeding. — Exeter Times Ad- vocate.

Take the Chill Off Water for Live Stock Starey - coated, constipated cattle shivering hump -backed at icy ti•ouglis ou a bleak winter clay, are an object of sympathy and a standing advert- isement of shrunken profits, says W.

Half a pailful of tepid water has brought around many a horseafter an immersion or after a hard cold chive. Swine do poorly on iced drinks in winter time. They thrive best when penned in comfortable quarters and given tempered food and drink. While it may be inadvisable to accustom teams to Luke -warm water, if they are likely now and then to be proffered ice-cold beverages away from home and while moderation is probably advisable with all classes of stock, a heater in the drinking tank will not only avoid notch ice-, chopping but will contribute decided- ly to the health and comfort of the farmyard stock.

It has been necessary to provide for heavy emergency needs caused by the war and at thesante time,wherever possible, to '' oxserve labor, gasoline, rubber and steel, To effect a saving in materials, since August all new buses have been painted khaki green with few identification markings so that they may be sent to any part of the coun- try when need arises, Beginning November 15th, the De- partment of Munitions an dSupply lies ordered bus trips curtailed to 60 miles in one direction. Routes are to be revised to eliminate bus travel where railway accommodation is available. In places where bus travel is the only reasonable means of transportation service will be con- tinued. 1t is expected that this cur- tailment in service will result in substantial savings in gasoline and `rubber.

LONDON'S TRAMLINES Wrenched Up' to Build Tanks and Battleships Britain's old tram rails, tons of which are going into the melting -pot every day, will soon roll out of war factories all over the countt•y, in the shape of tanks, gnus and other arias. The eighty miles of trans rails abandoned in London since• trolley - buses have taken the place of trains are made of high grade steel. All over London they ars being wrecnh- ecl up from the roads and more than half the work has been completed. Since it began last year, some 16,000 tons o1 metal have been recovered, and one London borough alone has taken up more than 214. miles of track and sent it off to the scrap metal depots. Other materials taken up are being used to restore the roads. Old granite paving, for et, ample, is broken tip to make asphalt.. Apart from tram lines, railings and iron gates all over Britain are yield- ing a steady flow' of metal for a1'ms production. More than 200,000 tons of metal have been recovered, the equivalent in weight of about 12,500 Valentine tanks; or enough for the steel of thirteen 35,000 -ton battle- ships.
