LUCKNOW
Lucknew, Monday April 17
Lucknow citizens were greatly
shocked to hear of the death of Mrs.
'john. Bell, on Monday last. •The'`late
Mrs. Bell had gone to visit a daugh-
ter,. -Mrs. Fraser at Pine River and
from there had Tone on- a visit to a
sister and brother and while here fe1l.
and broke her hip, but was thought
to be getting along :;,nicely when
pneumonia set in and rapidly develop-
ed and in .a few days death relieved
her of her sufering. Mrs. Bell's maid-
en naive was Margaret McDonald, and
had lived all her life around Ripley.
Only a few years ago moved to Luck-
now with her husband who is town
engineer and although a very _quiet
retiring woman, had made many
friends who deeply regret her. sudden
passing. She was 74 years of age and
is survived by her husband, one son
and one daughter. The funeral was
held to Kincardine cemetery.
The death of one of Lucknow's old z11111111s111s111sIII1111111111L'III11111,11111111111111111111i
citizens occurred on Friday, when Jas. •
J. Taylor crossed the Great Divide,
after a few weeks illness. The late
Mr. Taylor was a resident just outside
theetown for many years, where he
had :become -widely known as a grow-
er of fruits and vegetables, andpure
bred poultry. He was a faithful mem-
ber of the Methodist Church -and was
seldom absent, from services and for
many years was a local preacher. He
is survived by his aged wife and one
brother here. The funeral was held
to Greenhill cemetery on Monday and
was largely attended.
Harold Agnew and James McCal-
lum, two young men of town procur-
ed some moonshine a week ago Satur-
day night and proceeded to have a
good time ` but their hilarity at that
hour was not conducive to sleep on
the part of those who lived near the
scene of the merriment, consequently
a charge was laid and they appeared
before Magistrate McNabb of Walk-
erton and pleaded guilty with the re-
sult that they paid a fine of eo.00 and
costs or 23.85 each. They both de-
clared that they got the liquor from
Fred Whitly another young man of.
town, who it seems was acting as
-middle man for the manufacturer and
who informed who the distiller was
so that another case will likely follow.
Wm. Smith; manager of the picture
show on whose premises the young
men left the balance of the fire water
which they could not consume was
called to answer a charge of having
liquor in a unlawful place, was found
not guilty as he did not know any-.
thing about it but was warned to keep
the doors locked in future.
Quite a reflection on the sky could
be seen in the direction of Langside
to -night and as far as can be learned
now it was Josh Dawson's barn,
Mr. Ed. Palmer, who some time ago
bought out L. R. Taylor's grocery
store here , has now bought D. R. Mc-
Intosh's dry goods. He will run both
stores until he can dispose of the
grocery store.

held in all the' churches yesterday.

Mobbed At Hanover
While Provincial Constable Blood

C. P. R. station at Hanover, shortly
after nine o'clock, on Friday night to
catch the train home he was beset up-
on by a crowd of, hoodlums who pelt-
ed him with rocks, mud and:eggs that
weren't noted for their freshness. Con-
stable Blood, who is a war veteran,
turned and faced the outfit, and pull-

them scatter into the darkness like a
flock of , sheep. The cop.then con-
tinued his way unmolested to the de-

passengers were getting off, the bona.-

Attempt to Dispose of Flax Fibre In
Europe.
Eu p
A isisted by, the Federal Department
of A'g'riculture, Ontario Flax Growers
have taken steps to test out` the Eur-
opean. market for fiber. Three car-
loads. of _ Ontario flax fibre are now'
on' board ship, and R. J. Hutchison,
the department's flax expert is now on
the way, to try out the possibilities
for trade under present conditions.
William Forrester, M. P., South
Perth, who,is closely in touch with
the flax industry in Western Ontario,
stated that Mr. `Hutchison will visit
Ireland, Scotland, Belguim, and Hol-
land,en-
consignments of fibre being s
to Belfast, Dundee, Antwerp and else-
where. The Ontario Association is
responsible financially for the venture
though the department is giving Mr.
Hutchinson's services.
The situation, course, so far as
-this province is concerned, is that the
market for its fibre is in a bad way,
and some growers. still have on hand
the 192o crop. Last year the acreage
was. reduced; to some 5,000 acres, and
the outlook is for a very small acreage
this -year. Canadian fibre has already
been introduced to tlie. European mar-
ket and received favorable comment
as to quality, but the countries men-
tioned produce a great deal of flax
themselves and there is still some
coming froiin Russia, which formerly
had a tremendous acreage. Growers
are faced with adverse economic con-
ditions, such as large linen stocks, and
also the fact that .manufacturers are
in some cases making use of substi-
tutes, such as cotton thread instead of
linen.'
The present venture will at least de-
termine what -the outlook is in these
countries, and what prices may be ex-
pected for the Ontario product.
