Many farmyards are troubled
with burdocks. The best way to
kill them as far as experience has
shown, is to cut the plant off an
inch, or so below the surface of the
ground, tirith a sharp spade, and
then place two or three teaspoon-
fuls of a; concentrated lye solution,
use three gallons of water to one
package of Gillett's lye. The ordin-
ary way of cutting off the weed
with a scythe leaves room for small
shoots to grow, which throw out
burrs that are very troublesome.
The gravel walk to the Fair
Ground is packing nicely, and it
will not be necessary to go to the
expense of laying down cement for
the present. There are a number
of board walks which are about
worn out, and if other cementing is
to be done this season, we would
strongly urge our trustees to get
all walks in town into good ahape
at once. The walk to the Fair
Ground can be cemented another
season if it is found necessary to
do so, but from present indications
the gravel walk will fill the bill.
A Peterborough medical man is
an authority for the statement that
the style of wearing short sleeves
is one of the worst for the followers
of the custom ever adopted. He
said "There's nothing that will
cause the hair on the arms, or, for
that matter on any „part of the
body, to grow as quickly as will ex-
posure to the sun and wind. In
hot climates savages, wear no hats
and their hair is most luxuriant.
The girls that are now wearing
short sleeves, simply to be in fash-
ion, will regret it in a couple of
years when they see long hair
growing on their arms."

Why is it that no one wants to
live in the country any more? Cities
are full of people who live "from
hand to mouth." and whose total
wealth is represented by the cloth-
ing they have on. Years go by and
those persons never have a home.
They lose that independence that a
proud owner of a farm has. If there
is one needed reform, it is to keep
people on farms and away from
cities.

An exchange states the fact that
you can read the proof of a news-
paper article three or four tines
and repeatedly pass over the same
error without seeing it. All news-
paper mon will tell you so. But
just as soon as the press is started
and the paper is printed in its com-
plete shape there stands the error
in front of you so big that you can't
see anything else. It is a strange
fact and is probably the reason
why it is so easy to edit a news-
paper after it is printed.
On Monday, while Mr. John
Howald was passing along the
Sauble Line with his threshing
machine, he left the outfit stand
on the road while he called on a
farmer. He had wound the lines
arorind the hub of the wheel, and
during his absence the horses start-
ed forward. The lines tightened
and turned the horses towards the
ditch, which is quite deep at that
point. with the result that the big
machine was turned upside down,
smashing it considerably.

Death last week removed another
of Crediton' s best known citizens
and one of Stephen's first settlers,
in the persti. of Mr. Tobias Fahner,
who passed to his reward on Mon-
day Aug. 24th, after an illness of
several months' duration. Mr.
Fahner was a native of Germany
and came to Canada when only
twelve years of age. He first settl-
ed in the township of Stephen and
has continouslr resided here ever
since. Deceased for many years
possessed a rugged and robust
constitution and was among those
who did much towards contributing
to the township's welfare and
beauty. During the winter deceas-
ed was stricken down with a stroke
of paralysis, the result of which
was the cause of very poor health
ever since, the greater part of the
time having to keep his bed. About
three weeks ago it was noticed by
his immediate friends that his con-
dition was changing for the worse
and sinking slowly death claimed
him, Besides asorrowing widow he
is survivor; by a grown-up family
of four sons and two daughters.
The funeral took place on Wednes-

On Sunday afternoon at about 5
o'clock, a cyclone -like storm passed
through this vicinity coming from
awesterly direction. Passing from
Con. 12, to Con, 11, it played havoc
with the trees and fences- An old
elm tree, which had withstood the
storms of years, was stripped of it
top, which was carried about ten
rods into W. Smith's field. Mr.
Smith's buildings also suffered
severely. The south barn doors
were torn open, the north, barn
doors torn off the hinges, and the
doors of the driving shed were also
blown off. The top of the straw
stack was blown off, the tower of
the windmill becoming matted
with the straw. The chimney on
the kitchen was also blown down,
Ponces and fruit trees were scatter-
ed in all directions.

resulted seriously.
