A farmer cannot compel a Town- ship Council to open a drain on the highway where his drains ernpty. If the ownor of the farm desires an outlet for his drain he should institute proceedings for the con- struction of a drain, under the pro- visions of the Ditches and Water Courses. Act, and in this way the rights and privileges of all parties can be properly adjusted, says the Municipal World.

Labor Day has come and gone, and the races held on the Fair Grounds were a great success. The attendance was large and the pro- gram was carried out in all its de- tails. When the matter of holding a celebration on that day was first proposed, many thought that it was too near the fall fair dates to interest the people, and then our sister village, Crediton, also step- ped in and announced a celebration for that day. But notwithstanding this the committee are satisfied with the day's turnout, and they have practically decided to hold a race mesting once every year, like- ly on May 24th, which will give the farmers a better chance to at- tend. The afternoon was full of excitement and all were satisfied that they got their money's worth. The program started shortly after one o'clook when the football match between Hensall and Zurich was played the Bayfield team being un- able to Dome down. The high wind prevailing at the time made foot- ball playing a hard task and neith- er side'showed to advantage. The score at the end of the last hall was 2 to 1 in favor of Hensall. The horse races were the main features of the day and they certainly were good ones., furnishing much excite- ment for the large crowd present by the close finishes and the spills which occurred at different times. Luckily none of the drivers were seriously- hurt. In the 2.30 class, Little Mack won the first and third heats, but was given 2nd place in the third heat on account of not keeping his position coming down the home stretch. The green class was well filled and the heats were well contested. Hefty Green is a coming race horse, as is also S. S., and they will likely be heard of again on some future occasion. The best time made in the races for the mile beat was 2.30, Geo. S. Hender- son of Seaforth was starter, and Win. White and D. Donvoan acted as judges. The Jubilee Brass Band furnished music for the occasion. The absence of a grat'icl stand was badly felt and ono should bo erect- ed before the fall fair comes along.

The cost of the investigation re- cently made by a Provincial auditor into the municipal affair of Gode- rich township has amounted to a, little over $600. A large automobile, owned by Mr. Lamb, of London. visited the Fair Grounds on Monday afternoon and went around the track a few times for the amusement of the er,pt'tn f:nre In Soiling Your pp es.— who sell their apples on the trues to dealers should be very careful in making an agreement. Irrespon sible buyers,and even some who are not considered so, take advant- age of technicalities to the very oxo Canadian Horticulturist gives & case in point. A farmer in Middle- sex county sold his apples at a price per barrel, the grower agreeing to do the picking. The buyer was to furnish the barrels and to do the packing. The price of apples de- clined, and the price of barrels, ad- vanced so rapidly, that the dealer Could get no profit out of his bar- gain, and the apples were left in hwere erescaught by frost.treess under the The growuntil er sued on his contract, proving that he had done his part to delivering the apples picked. The eourt held, however, that as they were sold at so much per barrel, the contract was not complete until the apples were placed in barrels and, conse- quently, the grower lost his suit., The general public are not aware of how large e, number of hien there are, who, practically, make a living by practices which must be considered fraudulent in connec- tion with the buying of apples. The true remedy. is the _formation of cooperative associations and the selling of the fruit, picked and packed ready for market, to thor- oughly reliable men, who will pay cash at the time of delivery or give security that will be recognized at the banks. Nothing else should be great Ioss of the fruit grower. The aecepted by the growers,
