Wno CAN BEAT IT. -Mr. Morris She -1 -
lard, of the Township of Beverly, County
of Wentworth writes to us as follows :
"I see tin: TUE ExPostron that tWo boys
in the Township of Grey drew :in 26
loadS of turnips, 30 bushels to the load,
in one day, so I thought I would leat it.
L. Diggon who worked for me twelve
years and who is now a station agent on
*he Canadian Pacific Railway, drew in
20 wagon, loads. of turnips,,30 bushels to -
the load, in one day, and the distance
he drew them was half a mile. I can
nositively say this is correct and I would
like to know- who can beat it."

both nulistantials and dainties, and were
lilted several times by those who seemed
to appreciate whit • was placed tefore
them. After diluter the chair i -was
taken by Rev. Mr, Howell, pastors and
-the agreeable manner in which he per-
formed the duties added not a, little to
the succees of the evening. An anpro-
