LOOKING BACK TILL 4879 AT
WINGHAM
Mrs. T. L Jobb has kindly loaned
us a copy of The Wingham Advance,
dated, Thursday, March 6th, 1879. It
is an eight column sheet, four pages,
and the columns are about two feet
long. The paper was evidently
printed on an old Washington hand,
or should we say Armstrong Press.
It is indeed interesting to look over
the paper and note the 'changes which
ha-ve taken place since Wingham was
a village. Arnong the advertisers
we find theMaines of T. A. Mills, gen-
era.1 merchant, Geo. McKibbon, dry
goods and clothing, Philip leteKibbon,
general store; M. McKay, groceries;
Elliott and 'Talbot, grocers in the
Kent block; John Hanna, dry goods
and groceries; Geo, Elliott, groieries;
Strong's Drug Store; Thomas Leslie,
Merchant 'Tailor, W. T. Bray, drug-
gist; jarnes Currie, Wines and Liquors

F. J. Gosling, manager of the Con-
solidated Bank of Canada; E. Nichol, Minnie s

Mr. James Fleuty was the proprie,

columns of reading matter were all
that were then set up in the local off-

The markets of those days, are
interesting to compare with the,prices
of today. Flour, per barrel: $4.00,
Oatmeal per cwt., $2.00; Pot'kfoes 45
cents per bag, Eggs to cents per doz-

per ton, Cornmeal was $i.so per cwt.,
