The sportsmen of town have long looked forward. to this day, when they can again enjoy the freedom and excitement of "running a rabbit." Teach the children that birds and toads are valuable friends, and show them why they should . have our protection and care. A bird's nest should be something only to be looked at and admired by youth- ful eyes, and never to be regarded as a trophy to be carried off or destroyed. The annual meeting of the Upper Canada Bible Society of the Zurich branch will be held on Tuesday evening, Sept. 20th„ in the Evan- gelical Church, Zurich, at 8 o'clock p. m.

It is a waste of time and an in- jury to a plant or vine to sprinkle slightly every day with the water- ing pot. Surface, watering, if not thoroughly done, brings the roots to the top of the ground, and they are soon burnt or parched by the hot summer's sun. Give a thor- ough soaking, or do. not water at all.

R. Imperial Limited near Mission Junction, British Columbia. They compelled the engineer and fireman to cut the express and mail car from the train and run these off for some miles, then they plunder- ed the two cars at their leisure. They got away with about $5,000 or $6,000 from the express safe besides what they got in the regis- tered mail. This is the first time that a 0. P. R. train has been held up for twenty years. Those at breakfast in the Do- minion House on Tuesday morning were rudely disturbed by hearing wild •cries of distress sounding down the street. All rushed out and the cause of the noise was soon apparent. There in the middle of the street stood a cow with a rope around its neck, and on the other enol of the rope a boy was securely attached It seems that the cow had become stubborn and the lad fastened a rope to her, thinking to lead her more easily thus. They had managed to get down the road quite a distance, when the cow suddenly turned and made a dash for home, the boy during this time having managed to get his feet tangled in the rope. At every bound the cow made the boy let a yell out of him, and the slide did not end until the Dominion House was reached. Luckily the boy was unhurt. « DASHWOOD Special to Teta HERALD.

It was totally destroyed, but was partially cover- ed by insurance. If the dairy suffers from lack of labor and low prices, the. poultry yard is helping to make up for it. Eggs are dear enough and any old hen brings a good return. A great many chickens are being raised— far more than ever before. It. is stated upon good authority that 'one Canadian firm sold no less than ten thousand incubators during the present season. The poultry industry is a growing one, and worthy of the attention of every farmer in the land.
