The low place along Mr. Galster's land has been filled in with clay, and a coat of gravel put on top. The walk will remain thus until next year, when the cement work will be done. This will give the ground plenty of time to settle. Not less than 25,000 men will, it is estimated, be required to harvest this year's wheat crop in the Cana- dian West. Where are the men to come from, asks the Weekly Sun, with all the available labor is sight ,actively employed in railway con- struction. The situation would be greatly relieved if both harvesting and threshing outfits could move freely from south to north follow- ing the ripening of grain. A snake in the grass or on the road is an unpleasant sight and makes the average person shudder, but when one is found in the kitc- hen curled up on the washstand and making itself quite at home. it is enough to make the hair of a person stand on end, especially a woman's. This was the ease in one of the homes in our village a few days ago. His snakeship was found in the kitchen. curled up beside the washbowl on the washstand, and seemed to be quite at home. It was, however, speedily despatched with the aid of a hay fork by one of the men, and the women folks have now quite recovered from their scare. That this section of Ontario is the garden of Canada has long been a settled fact., and a drive through the country at present time will prove it conclusively. The crops are all that can be expected, and the farmers are indeed in a happy frame of mind. As an instanee of the crops grown in this part, Mr. Wm. Dawson, of Stanley township, brought a stalk of spring wheat to this office a few days ago which measured over six feet in length, Another instance of the spiel growth this spring was shown to us on Monday. it being a rhubarb leaf, which me asnred three feet across. This grew on Matthew Westlake's farm also in Stanley, FOOTBALL On Thursday evening, Tune 25th, I1U' football team went over to Orediton for a friondlsr game and got rcvengP on the team of that place by defeating them by one i goal to none on their own grounds. The game. lasted one hour and was hara fo fight thron„,Thout. Neither side s needled in scoring in the first half. the Zurich lads scoring when only one minute of time to t play \vas left. Tho field upon which the game was played was partly ' covered with grass, about two feet High, but for this our boys would have made a. bigger score. Crediton has a good team but they are not fast enough for ear lads, The Zurich team lined up as follows; Forwards, Koehler, Johnston, Waren, Canier- ott, 'Holtzman ; Half -backs,- Shop-. pard, McLeod, McGavin.; Backs, Rennie, Gallintin ; Goal, Hunter, Sir.. "Gtr, Jarrott, as referee, gave satisfaction to • all. On July 2nd, • the junior team went to Hayfield, and played the juniors •of Bruce- field a game, which resulted in a tier 1 to 1. The boys putt up a good game, considering that one of their best men wets laid out at the•begin. ping of the second half.. Miss Brown of Orediton visited at J. Preeter's on Saturday and Sunday.

The boat is constructed of steel, is 16 feet long and is very neat in appearance. It is fitted out with a two horse power gasoline motor and when going at full speed can glide through the water at about •sight miles an hour. Mr. Hess will use it on the lake and also on the river at the ,Pinery." In reply to a question, The coun- try Gentleman recommends copper- as to drise awav rats. Pulverize and throw plentifully about where the rats •go ; also about their holes. it is supposed to make their feet sore. Freshly -slaked lime has the same effect. Somebody may find this suggestion worth trying, though, for our part, we have greatfaith in cement fioors and cats. .We have frequently been asked if Mr. Whitney's new pro- visions relating to school teachers'. salaries became lay. Yes, they were passed in the Hones on the 14th -of May, and there is one pro- visi.oi that should not be overlook- ed.. Teachers making engaemments must do so under the provisions of the act, and if they engage at a lower salary than the assessment of their section justifies, the In- spector- is compelled to suspend their certificate. This applies to teachers who nra,ke engagements for the balance of 'this year also. Clinton New Era, memorial is to be erected to the author of "The Maple Leaf." A simple one was at first desired, to be ere=cted in the school in Toronto in which he luta endeared himself to tunny pupils. The idea has taken hold now, and it is quits possible that a substantial monument may be erected in Queen's Park, Toron- to. Whether the plan is carried ont or not, Alexandrr Muir has already- built lreadybuilt for himself "a. monument more enduring, than brass." Cana- dians have written better poetry than "The Maple Leaf," but few of them have succeeded in estab- lishing themselves so in the hearts of tete nation, and especially of the nation's .ehildren.—Woodstock Ex- press, HENSi4LL.
