e cause of it. The warmth
would start the sap upwards when
a sudden cold spell would freeze it,
this causing the harm. It is report-
ed that the same cause has dam-
aged the Northern Spy trees in
some sections of the county but we
have heard of no damage being to
this apple tree in this part.
Mr. Daniel Smith of the Sauble
Line, is putting an addition to his
barn, which will make it one of the
largest barns in tke County. The
structure will be nearly 70x90 feet
with stone and brick stabling under
the whole barn. Mr, R. Jennion
has the contract for the carpenter "
work, and so far as THE HERALD
editor could see the work is being
done in a first cta.ss manner, being
a, credit, both to the owner and to
the inechanics.
While the modern system of
school work may be deficient in
some respects, and no doubt the
tendency is to take on shore work
and too many branches of study
for the pupil to master thoroughly
in the time tate average boy or girl 1
is allowed for schooling, yet there
is a fault on the part of parents
which is persistently left out of ac-
count in the argument of the critic.
The pupils, especially in the higher
grades. are allowed to spend the
nights during the Week in various
amusements which clistraot their
minds from school work, and the
loss of sleep incapaciaates then for
good work during school hours.
Mr. J. Pres er, wife and family,

Messrs. Snowden Bros., of the
Sauble Line, Stanley, had a big

were required to put up the timbers.
Last week we copied au article
taken from the Clinton New Era
stating that the new School Act
went into force at once. Inspector
Tom says that this is not correct,
that the new act does not go into
operation until the 1st of January
next. .;

A Winnipeg despatch says : The
wheat has passed another critical
week and the crop report of the
Canadian Northern shows that the
o-itlook is rosier than ever for a,
bumper yield throughout the West.
With three more weeks of favor-
ab'e weather the farmers will be
bnsy reaping the biggest crop in
the history, of the country.
The London Free Press of Tues-
day contained a map showing the
route of the proposeo electric rail-
way from G'oderioh to London. The
Iine follows the lake shore, touches
at Bayfield, Grand. Bend and maks
a long sweeping curve before
striking London. The campany
has obtained a charter and the line
will likely be built within a few
years, although the exact route has
not been decided on.
We would kindly ask our corres-
pondents to send us in the news
every week, be it much or little,
The country'newspapers depend
largely on their correspondents to
help to make the weekly paper in-
teresting to its readers, and al-
though we appreciate the efforts of
our news gatherers very much, we
would ask then to make their con-
tributions more regularly. If sup-
plies are needed we will be only to
pleased to furnish them.
Bogns Picture Agents—From the
correspondence received by the
Detective Department at Toronto
it appears that the Province is
being overt%in at present with
bogus picture agents. Several com-
plaints about these men come in
every day and the letters are from
every part of the Province, through
the small towns and the rural dis-
tricts appear to be the worst suf-
ferers. These agents are going a-
bout making the most amazing
offers. Some give away an enlarged
picture and only ask the buyer to
par for the frame. Others are
selling the potraits at about one.:
quarter the regular price in order
to introduce their work to the pub-
lic, and some offer even better
inducements. A11 of them, however
require a deposit. They ask at
least 50 cents, but are willing to
accept as much as ,n5 if the pur-
ohaser likes to give it to them.
Then they depart with a family
photograph and are never seen
amain. Occasionally they leave a
card with the address of the comp-
any representeit, and the detectives
have visited several of those firms.
The reply received, however, has
always been that the men are
frauds, and have not been commis-
sioned as.agents of the company.
The firms.. of course, refuse to be
responsible, and the peonle taken
n roust bear the loss, The Detec-
tive Department is therefore unab-
.o to do anything but advise every-
)ody to refuse to give deposits to
the picture dealers. If the porch as-
ers only paid when they received
the portraits they would soon end
the careers of the fakers.

quests have been made for enii„ ht -

horse racing is deolared illegal-, and
cancellation of Government grants

the penalty for infractions. Trials
