She Was ' a member of the United 'Church, She leaves to mourn h'er loss, three daughters, Mrs. Harry '.Strang, Us- horne; Mrs. Geo.

Sproat of ISeadortk, •and' Mr. Wild Mes.4 Mre eY Oaldlwdl'1 .olf London, A ,very inteersting meeting was held here on Monday evening by officials inam 'th'e Beam 'Growers' Exchange of Chatham in +the •interest of the bean growers. Mr. !Geo. Ball and Ms. Thompson, prominent {bean 'growers the (Chatham 'district were present with Mr. Hralanes o'f {Chatham, the selling agent, and addressed the 'meet- ing. Mr. Holmes answered/ a great mealy utuestions and read the con- tract which he wished the growers to sign. There 'seems to be ,quite a war on between the bean exchange at Chatham and the new organization formed alt :Lon'dlan a couple of weeks ago of the bean dealers end bean growers of :Western Ontario. Each organization is trying to ger control of at least 75% of the bean growers in ;Western Ontario. As there is a duty of $1',815 a /bushel against foreign 'bea'ns coming into Canada and no more :beans grown in Ontario . than will supply the iCanaidian market, it looks tous that the farmers have it in their own hands to set the price. The .moment we 'became large export- ers of beans, then we have to take the world's price, but 'when we just grow enough for home consumption, the 'farmers through their ,sellin:g or- ganization should be able to set the price, and taking their 'food value into consideration they /should not be less than a dollar a bushel. This will no doubt be about the price set for a start by the new organization, There is no reason in the world why beans should be selling on the Hon- sall market for 40 cents a bushel and we believe the steps new being taken by either the organizations are on the right direction and bean growers in Ontario wilt receive •a price for the product showing a prdfit over the cost of production. Death of Mrs. George iAlair. — The death occurred on Wednesday after- noon last et her home here of Mrs. Geo. Alair, relict of the late George Alair of Stanley Twp. 'Mrs, Alair and her daughter Dora moved into the village about a year ago and she was well known in the district, She was 52 years of age and about a couple of weeks ago she was stricken with pneumonia.
