„
Already nearly one hondred chickens
from various flocks have been victims
of the epidemic. Perhaps the heaviest
loser is Martin Mikel, the well known
poultry fancier, who has lost practic-
ally the entire flock of his best show
stock, Mr. Mikel refused to put an
estimate on the birds lost so far.
He stated that post-mortem exam-
ination of the dead birds reveals the
fact' that their throats become choked
tip with a thick greyish matter, slight-
ly colored with dark red blood. • With-
out :warning they suddenly show signs
of heavy breathing and shortly after
enter the death struggle and topple
over,
The disease started in. a new bird
which Mr. Mike' had imported. The
bird had scarcely arrived and been
placed in the, pea before it showed
signs of the diSeaSe, and hi about an
hour later was dead. The next day
the disease had taken a grip on the
rest of the flock and was rapidlY
spreading, Only ten ok the flock are
left atid Mr, Migel &dares that with-
in 24 hours they will likely he gone.
• Other flocks thropghout the city
are aimilarily affected, arid the c'Adcita-
te is aprea mg with such rapidity that
the foeal Ponitry Association will
likely take the matter tip with the,
atilhorities at the Gnelph,Agriettltural
College with it view to finding some
vvay and means of docking it.

On this wonderful principle of "The
more you give, the more you get," In-
spector Bald of West Bruce figures
it out for Teeswater Public School
Board that by giving teachers the
inaximeni to get 40 per cent, grant on
• salaries', the Board would have $355.00
of a net gain by advancing the salaries
of the our teachers $650.00, Of course
the increase was made. How long will
these big school grants last? ,

The Canadian who travels eitlier iri

gratified to meet with, frequent assur-`

any country that participated in the
war. Here at `home everybody inay
not feel so-, sure about it, but in New
York and London they believed it to
be so, end they say it and appear .to
liketo talk- about it. They ascribe it
to the great natural resources of the
country, the resourcefulness of our
people, 'and the sensible manner in

Part 111 Of Voters' List -
The chief election officer of the
Leoislaturc has sent notices to all
uniciPal clerks to have part three
of voters' lists for 5922 printed and
posted up iu readiness for the gener-
al Provincial election which must
take place this year. The legislature
has thrown on municipalities the ex-
pense of printing the names of all
those who are entitled to vote at Parl-
iamentary elections and who are not
on the municipal lists. The assessors
secured this information when they
went around in Fcbritary and March
5922 and the clerks will be paid extra
for preparing the lists for the printers.
As married women were not on the
municipal lists last year this „will
mean a voters' list for the Parliament-
ary election of 5923 of all young men
and all women over 21, who are Brit-
ish subjects and,not on the Municipal
nits. This will also mean consider-
able extra work in printing offices,
The lists will be. nearly as large as the
preSe'lit mtmicipal lists, The old Sys-
tem. with enumerators just before it
general Provincial election will uot be
eecesasryit, filture.

much to interest juniors in agricul-

abie to show and win implies a knowl-
edge of griming things. To know
how to grow" things mean observ-
ation, study and industry.
