Weemeat Mum, Tp. Clerk. Brucefield. At the request Of some of the leadingfarfners of Tuckersmith and Stanley a meeting was conven- ed. on Saturday Feb. 12th at Brucefield for the purpose of taking into consideration the propriety of establishing a Cheese Factory in the vicinity of the village, and from the large number in at- tendance and the interest manifested by all upon the subject under consideration the meeting was a decided success. . - Mr. R. Ferguson being called to the chair an- nounced the object, for which they were asserabl- :ed and pointed otit-eonse of the probable advanta- ges wising from the enterprise proposed, after which Mr. .T. Hiekeon Seatorth was called upon to address the meeting. - Mr. Hickson stated that he was willing to en- ter in the enterprise provided they were willing to. give him a liberal support and enter earnestly into the business, and that he had two prOposals to make them, either of which he was ready to eccept. First he Would give give for milk seven cents per gallon (of 10 lbs) and/procure his own conveyance. 2nd he would as their agent manu facture the eheese and draw the milk to the fac tory for three cents per lb, the meeting was di vided in its opinions respecting the edvantages of the several propositions, but a large mejority were in favour of the latter. Mr. Hickson fur- ther stated that should any prefer • his first proposition he would pay cash, at any time, to suit his customers. Mr. Hamilton of the township ofilibbert being a man of scientific enquiry, and having extensive experience in the business was unanimously called upon to give a synopsis of his practice in the manufactnre of cheese. This gentleman stated that the advantages to the farming Community arising frcim -the establishment of a factory needed no argument to enforce it at present; he would therefore give them some idea of the profits that they might expect provided they went unitedly to work in. the business. His own experience proved that reckoning milk at 7 rents per gallon (which is the general rate) a sum of from 35 to 40 dollars per cow, can be realized for the season. Further he had lately attended. a diary conven- tion, at Ingersoll, in which it was shewn that the average amount per 00W forthe seasonwas some- thing over 42 dollars, also it was shewn that in peci al cases when the farmers had. devoted them- selves entirely to thts business by extra attentions and green feeding an average of as high as 56 dollars have been realized. He also showed in replying to some remarks made that 7 cents per gall was the highest that could be paid by the manufacturer who had to incur the risk of sale. Mr. J. Elliott, McKillop, was next called upon. to give his opinion as to whether he considered it a profitable investment in the scheme proposed, if he considered it prefera.bleto the manufacture and of butter. In replying to these answers Mr. Elliott stated that he had. fairly tested the ques- tion, and although during.seasons in which butter had commanded higher figures than now he had no hesitation whatever in spying that the manu- facture of cheese was unpuestionably much more profitable in developing the resources of Canadian wealth which would certainly result with profit to themselves and a benefit to the county. After which a vote of thanks was heartily tendered Mr. Hamilton Mr. Elliott, and the chairman who having severly responded the meet- , , ing was declared to be closed. We would just remark thatthe prospects of a most extensive Factory at Brucefield, are of the most flattering kind, and we congratulate Mr. Hickson in his worthy enterprise, and wish him every success, and feel justified in saying that he will receive that liberal support andex- tensive patronage which he duly merits. -COM., -4t • OP' Tuckersmith Council.

The, programme con- sisted of recitations, and sireeing and all concern- ed perfoemed their parts agnirably. •The first part of the programme Was made:up of serious pieces after which the teacher invited Dr. (.:ansp- bell of Seaforth to address the audience which at this time must have numberocl 300 including old and young. • The Dr. took the platform and eave a short pithy address on the " Educational ins- titutions of Canada" beginning with the COMMA. • schools and ending with the 'Universities urging upon the youth around him to be loyal not only to their Queen and..eountry but also to the in- stitutions of their native land, and finally remind- • ed them that the present generation was fast passing awa,v ancl the day was conaing when the generation that was was rising up around hien would also pass away. He then urged them not to neglect the great object of their 'existence So that when they passed through the various insti- tutions ,of -Canada, they might at least graduate at the grand tiniversity above. The latter part of the programme was then proceeded with which was of a more humorous nature but each piece contained a good moral. At 10 o'clock the proceedings terminated by the whole company rising and singing the the national anthem. East Wawanosh; The Council met this day Feb. 8th 1870 pur- suant to adjournment.
