O Building in Ontario
On the banksiof the Maitland Rive
at -Bluevale, in Huron County, stand
an old mill, which for years choppe
feed and ground grist for the farmer
of the surrounding district. Thes
days the product of the mill is take
away in wagon,- truck. and motor ca
but it was not so Many years ago tha
teams of oxen lined up at the mill to
receive the chopped grain. Some of
the older ones in the district recall the
time When 30 teams stood in line, wait

family were raised. it is one of t ie
beauty spots of the district and at-
tracts many visitors.
There were to brothers in the Leech
family, the sons of Richard and l3ar-
bara Leech, both natives of Ireland.
O In the year 1812 Mr. Leech arrived at
✓ Brockville and there set up business
s at his. trade, cabinet-making, When
the war of 1812 broke out, he went to
s the defense of his country, and at the
e conclusion of the war tobk part in
n establishing the military settlement
r, at Perth, which later became the
t county seat of Lanark. Richard Leech
died in 1847 and his wife to years lat-
er. They were survived by to sons, all
of whom made an honorable place for
themselves in various activities, 'Three
of the sons entered the ministiy and
the others made good in various lines
of industry and business..-•
One of these to sons was William
Henry, u millwright, and, with his
brother, Joseph, a farmer, builder of
the mills at Bluevale. The latter was
active in politics inthedistrict and
for 12 years held the office of presi-
dent of fhe North Huron Conserva-
tive Association. The other sons were
Richard, a merchant; Robert, cabinet-
maker, Edward, millwright and justice
of the peace; John, cheese maker and
merchant; James, carpenter and 'cab-
inet-maker and justice of the peace.
The other three, Nathaniel, George
and Webster, were "ministers.
The name of Leech remains a bright
spot in the early history of this sec-
tion and the name is always closely
associated with the early days. The
creamery which was recently destroy-
ed by fire in Bluevale was built by the
Leech brothers many years ago.
Charles Garniss is the present own-
er of the Bluevale mill.
On the opposite bank of the river
years ago stood a sawmill, which was
destroyed by fire many years ago and
never rebuilt
Thesemills were the first in the dis-
trict and were built by William Henry
and Joseph Leech in .1856. It is said
that this pair struck the first and last
blows on the buildings. The timbers
were cut from the surrounding section
and hewn by hand. The machinery
was brought, under great difficulty,
from Paris and Guelph by oxen. The
dam which was erected to supply
power for the mills withstood many
spring floods.. Fifteen ears ago, Eow-
ever, the old dam weht out withthe
high spring waters and was replaced
by a modern concrete structure.
So successful were their first milling
ventures that the Leech brothers later
built another rnill at Gorrie, at that
time called Leechville. y\
Behind the old milt at Dluevale,
stands a large white brick residence,
in, which many members of the Leech
SPREAD OF INDUSTRY
Kite of the significant facts, of the
present is the trend of industry away
from the large centres and • toward
Smaller cities and towns. this trend
seems likely, to prove the salvation
of the farmer, It is amply 'shown by
reliable statistics that under the con-
ditions which now prevail it is almost
impossible for a strictly • agricultural
comtnunity to be.prosperous. On the
other hand, whir a industrial plants
are found, in ahenear:by towns, the
farmer is afforded, a:batter. market'
with a consequent:irteyease in his in-
come. The rnanufactairer also finds
certain advantages in , operating in.
