A WARNING TO SPRA,YERS.--AlIhOUgh ib is a subject that has often been referred to, the proper time for spraying fruit trees is a matter which- will bear repition. The cor- rect times are before or just after' the tree is in blossom, and not during the period it is in flower, as at this stage of development the labor is entirely lost. Not only this, but to prevent the wholesale slaughter of bees, an act has been passed imposing a fine for spraying while the trees are in blossom. It would be well, therefore, for persons to hear these facts in mind, both for their own good and for the good -of those engaged in the bee business. • AUCTIONEERS AND PEDLARS. —The follow- ing parties have obtained licensee from the county treasurer to act as auctioneers and pedlars-, in this. county: Auctioneers,s--- Thomas Gundry, John Gill, Thotnas:Brown, Edward Bossenbery, John Currie, Henry Brown, John Knox,- B.
