FLAX MILL AT CLINTON
Monday evening, Mr. J'. J. Mennen•
of Seaforth, addressed the Board of
Trade, as to -the building of a flax
mill here. He stated that his brother
F, F. Merrier, of Bayfield, had heard
that the Board of Trade here were en-
quiring about a flax mill and they had
spoken to several of the committee
appointed to look into the matter.
Mr, Meaner gave estimates of the
probable expenditures in running a
flax mill with an acreage of 250 acres
and the total expenses would reach
about $28,000 for the season. Mr.
Merner asked for exemption from
taxes, except school tax, and free wat-
er for steam ,iurposes. Mr. Merner
stated to the meeting that an option
had been secured on land in town.
'File Board of Trade are quite willing
to go to the council about these terms
as" soon as Mr. Merrier is willing to
go ahead. Mr. Meaner stated that it
would mean his brother moving to
town to manage the business and they
eepuld employ 18 men the whole
season.—Clinton New Era.
FLAX SEED FOR FREE
DISTRIBUTION
This season for the first time, sam-
ples of flax seed are being distributed
free to farmers, front the Central Div-
ision of the Experimental farm at Ot-
tawa. The samples contain about
two pounds of seed, enough to sow
about one -thirtieth of an acre. The
quantity of fibre flax seed availab!c
this season- is small and enough re-
quests have already been received
todispose of it all; but applications
for samples of flax for the production
of seed can be accepted for some lit-
tle time to come, though the number
will necessarily be limited. These
samples will be reserved chiefly for
farmers in districts where the cultiv-
ation of flax for seed has been found
profitable. The varieties available
are ordinary commercial Pretnose
one of the most popular sorts in
Western Canada, and a new selected
type, called Novelty which seems sup-
erior to Premost in productiveness
but is not quite so attractive in ap-
pearance, These free samples furn-
ish an opportunity to the farmer to
start the growing of a kind of flax
superior to the ordinary stock usually
sown. If carefully .propagated, the
second crop will, yield enough tosow
quite a large field. Good, pure flax
seed is usually hard, to obtain, and
the hest plan is for each farmer- to
produce his own, The variety of flee -
for fibre purposes which is being dis-
tributed is anew, selected strain nam-
ed Longstem which- has already, made
a name for itself as a singularly fine
variety. . Samples are not being sent
out this season to apy new districts
where the success of flax as`a fibre
plant is doubtful or where the indus-
try of flaxproductionis- not already'
established. It is -.expected that a

THE LATE CANNON CRAIG
It is with extreme regret we have
to announce the death of the Rev.
Cannon Craig D.O., rector of John.
the Evangelist, London, which occur -
in London on the 19th instant, fol-
lowing an illness of but two days.
Cannon Craig conducted the ser-
vices in his church on Sunday. the
14th instant.
Por two years from 1875 to 1877,
Me .Craig was the rector of St.
Thomas church in Seaforth, and dur-
ing his stay here endeared himself
to every member of his congregation
and to the' citizens generally.
Mr. Craig was a zealous church-
man, always active in his Masters
service, mild and gentle in his dis-
position, kind and affectionate and
sympathetic and ever zealous for the
spiritual and temporal welfare of the
people in his charge, •
Mr; Craig served for over forty
two years in the ministry and always
took an active interest in all matters
connected with the church. He was
seventy-four years of age at the time
of his death, He was a graduate of
Huron College, being ordained in 1872
and was for a short time curate at
Woodstock before coming to Sea -
forth. On leaving Seaforth he had
charge of Clinton, a church in Mon-
treal and Petrolia before going to
T.bndon. He was created Cannon in
1903 by the late Bishop Baldwin.

their daughter, Beatrice, to Lieut-
enant Arthur Pritchard Reid, Toronto
son of Mr. amid Mrs. j, H. Reid, Sea -
forth, The marriage will take piece
quietly on New Year's Day,
Corns cause much suffering, hit
Holloway's Corn Cure offers a
speedy, sure and satisfactory relief.
SCHOOLS CLOSE
The Collegiate Institute, Public
and Separate schools' closed on Fri-
day for the holidays.. Miss McPlter-
sonand Miss Pridham of the Colleg-
it,te staff left for their respective
homes -iii Witighant and Goderic''i..

onto and Ottawa. fie -fore closing the

did gifts. Mr. Ross was presented

ST. THOMAS' ENTERTAINMENT
St. Thomas' Sunday School held
their annual festival on Friday even-
ing. The school room was well filed.
After a supper at six o'clock, the
programme consisted of singing God
Save the King, and on the arrival of
Britannia, Rule Britannia, was sung as
a chorus. Then Canada appeared and
0, Canada was sung. Several chor-
uses -followed. There were addresses
by Mr. Neelip and Rev. T. H. Brown.
There were also recitations by child-
ren. The programme was much en-
joyed. Santa Claus presented the
gifts to the children.
WHAT CAUSED THE STORM
• The Seaforth News suggests that -it
was not the U.F.Q. that caused. the
big storm a' couple of weeks ago, be-
cause the farmers suffered as much
as others. The Seaforth News will at
least admit that the people of the pro-
vince declared by their votes that
henceforth the province must be Dry,
and shortly after the U. F. O. Gov-
ernment decided that henceforth the
province_ must he Raney. If this is
not enough to cause -a big storm, we
are willing to let the Seaford' News
have its own way- in the matter.—

receive or send sonic thoughts that form a veritable web of
memories and good wishes which emesh you and .. us, ,and
your friends, until the whole world is one in the joy of the
Christmas season.
With, best wishes for your happiness and prosperity through
the next year and all the other years of your life, we again
say: MERRY CHRISTMAS i
