Every township In the (',runty contributed its quota. Again w'e point out that people do not Will a >1rney-making job. 1'hett' must be seine reason or combination of reasons for this de'c'line in the rural population. We wonder sometimes if our governments, our manufacturers, and city people in general, realize the seriousness of the situation. Let this continue for another, eighteen years at the same ratio us it has for the past eighteen, and there will he a serious feud shortage confronting us. Al- ready empty houses, and farms turned over to grass, point to a period when high wages will be more than absorb- ed by the higher cost of foodstuffs, and the co.ndition.of the working man will be worse than it is to -day. Be- fore it is too late, there should be a drastic stock -taking on the part of the people of this Province, otherwise we will be brought face to face with dur economic downfall. The story of Huron could be repeated of every county in the Province. What is wrong with agriculture?

Good Colt Sold. - A registered Clyde filly, ten months and three weeks old, aired by Mr. T. J. Berry's Clyde horse, "Commodore; was de- livered last week to Ackerman and Sons, Olkton, Mich. The colt was raised on Dr. Moir's farm, weighed 1130 pounds and was purchased by these American Clydesdale breeders for $400. This colt also had a most successful career in the show ring, having taken first at Exeter; first at Zurich and first and sweepstakes at Seaforth for the best draught horse any age, when about five months old. King Thomas Sold. -Mr. T. J. Berry has sold the noted Clydesdale stallion, King Thomas, to Mr. Isaac Eby, of Hanover. Ring Thomas 'was known from one end of the County of Huron to the other, and even be- yond as one of the greatest Clydes- dale stallions ever imported to this country. His success as a producer of good horses has been phenenominal as is evidenced by the fact that Mr. Berry has kept him for 13 seasons at his own stable, where he has made a pile of money for his owner, International Winner Sold-Intime, the International winning Percheron stallion which has been at the head of Me, H. C. Soldan's stud for some time, has been sold Sy his owner to Dr. Thompson, of Mount Brydges, and has been shipped to his new owner.

Mr, Soldan left this week for -the States, where he will purchase an- other horse to take the place of In - time.

So, it will be seen that Hensall gave no uncertain answer to the question and contributed largely to the great dry majority. Very ttkuch credit is due, not only to the voters, but also to the Committees and individuals; who worked so hard for what they were persuaded was nut only iq the inter- ests of the individual but also for the conlmnlilty and the Province as a whole, And is another long step for- ward in. the banishment of strung drink.We are pleased to note that the result of the voting is not staking any very,ruarked hard feelings, and we noticed by the press that the Sec- retary of the Provincial Committee of the Citizens' Liboety League, while dealing with 11 e defeat, takes all the comfort he can out of the vote, and while clime i:,g the Methodist church as being this rause of the defeat, does not bring :,ut rltIlin , accusation vgainst that church ur apply any Y schoolboy .
