Himself and. horses can thresh ten bushels in two hours. He can do so now, while he is unable to plow, whioh is a great saving of time, betides the straw being more palatable to the stock. This is the way the Menonites in Manitoba thresh their grain so thee Mr. Farmer is not the in- ventor of the machine. it is reported that the Wingham Advance will shortly become the pro- perty of Mr. Watson of that town. Mr. Watson was formerly a cheese mann- t facturer but is also an active politician, and at the last general election in East Huron was one of the principal platform spe&kere. If he was making money in the cheese buainess he had. better have staid at it as he will not make much at the newapaper business. When the present proprietor of the Advance who is a practicel printer and newspaper , man can not make it profitable,- ' the prospects ate not the brightest for a person who -knows nothing at all about the busineas.

The annual meeting of the • East Huron Conservative Association was held in Campbell's hall, in Gorrie, on Wednesday afternoon of last waek, Mr. Jos. Leech, of Blnevale, occupying the chair. Owing to the terrible snow- storm and the drifted atate of the roads many delegates were unable to attend, consequently the attendance was nnich smaller than usual. The first butiness was the election of officers, which re- sulted as follows, each choice being unanimous StPresident,-,Joseph Leech, Bluevale ; Vice -President, S. Greer, Gorrie; Secretary -Treasurer, Mr. Mus- grove. The Municipal Vice -Presidents eelected were : Wroxeter, A. Patton; Howick, Hs, Perkins; iTurnberry, Robt. Evans; Wirigham, Mr. Watson; Blyth, P.

Hays, Coni t servative candidate for the ' comin local elections, has been in attendanc upon the two conventions in this towel. ship this week, and on each occasioA made a very brief address. When Mil. Hays becomes better known, personr ally, in Howick he will become ev4 more popular than was Dr. Holmes at the last election. An affable gentleman!, of dignified, scholarly address, he i makieg friends by the score, and in hi only too short speeches he showed hi self possessed of that natural oratory s rarely met with and -so electrifying iji its effects." , IIMIIIMIMIIMIMMMIMOMMMIMIIIIMI READY MONEY. ---For Cash I sha from now to the 12th day of January - which completes my. 16th year in Se forth—sell at a small advance on co all goods that you will find a list of o Page -8, with a view of making this t largest month's sales in the 16 year Facts speak for themselves, and do n require any blowing.
