night, There ,'a'•"ae'.. alar! ,a, gun-
boat which had a'ilvied from Eng-
land, with bluejac'i etse rifles and
Armrsbrong About noon one
day we got a proper scare. The town
bell was rung and. •a,.gamma was fir-
ed, and the reeson g}•yen was that a
suspicioia-looking„ veaeei was coining
in. Very blaoli~:-In coke was issuing
from her funnel and they were cer-
tain it was the Ferni'ans, for the Can-
adian vessels burnt wood in those
days. But all fears were allayed
when it was' learned that the vessel
was a United States revenue cutter
under the command of •General Sher-
man, commander-in-chief of the Am-
erican army. The vessel was fully
equipped, with uniformed even be-
longing to the naval service, and had.
the appearance of a regular war
ship.
We visited both boasts, The Ameri-
can boat was a beautiful boat and
everything was polished. General
Sherman was seated at the head of
the table having lunch with his of-
ficers and men, The British boat al-
so was well equipped and manned by
a hardy -looking lot of British sea -
]nen, 'who would no doubt have made
short work of tete Fenians had thed
got an opportunity. That night there
' was a 'banquet, in 'Godea'ich' and Col.
4, M. ,Ross told General Sherman a-
bout the raid that the Fenians had
made and about the young men who
had `been slain, and' warned him that
if they came again they would be
treated as murderers and hanged.
Sherman expressed sorrow for what
had happened and said that his miss
•sion was to. prevent any more raids
from being made and that they were
patrolling the lakes' and rivers so
that nothing of that' nature would
occur in the future.
kill the weeds by their shape. Nat-
ural reproduction has. conte in thick-
ly tirtou'gh the !bush and in the grass
land adjoining the woods. A pleas-
ing feature of the reproduction is the
large percentage of white ash. White
-ash wend is very valuable and is in
great demand by handle makers, im-
plement manufacturers and is also
used in the manufacture of skiis,
White ash will not'seed up in a thidk
bush as sugar :maple and beech do,
but if there is a seed tree near • an
opening there is generally a, great'
number of white ash • seedlings and
saplings growing.
Mr. Middleton practices selection
cutting. In 1929 he sold 200 trees
on the stump. The trees selected for
cutting were large mature trees scat-
tered through the bush. Their re-
moval is not noticed particularly and
saplings and small trees already
started will make a faster growth as
the keompetition of the larger trees
has been removed.
Mr. Noble Holland, of N,ullett
Township, decided that his 7=acre
woodlot was an asset that should be
protected. It was a second growth
maple stand with trees 8 inches to
14 inches in diameter. He was cut-
ting out the defective and dead'treas
for fuel wood. He also tapped 100
maple trees, which prodticed 30 gal-
lons of syrup annually.
The bush was pastured and the
stock were browsing off the .seedlings
each year soon after they germinat-
ed. In 1926 the stock was shut out
and planting in the openings com-
menced. Pines, spruce, walnut, white
ash and black locust have been plant-
ed, Natural reproduction has also
come in and along with the planted
trees make up a fine' young ,stand. A
berrypatch illustrates the difficulty
in securing natural reproduction or
successful planting in a thick 'berry
patch.
Mr. Holland intends to gradually
take out the large trees as they in,,,
terfere with the young trees beneath
them. He intends to improve, the
growing conditions in the natural
stand by cutting out the Weed species
(iron4lvood) crooked trees, defective
trees and trees too closely spaced.
Mr. W. J. Washington, of West
Wawanosh Township, has 18 acres
of hardwood bush' that was pastured
until 19215. It is a second growth
sugar maple, beech bush with trees
6 inches and 15 inches in diameter.
There were mapy large openings and
there are no trees under 6 inches in
diameter, showing that all natural re-
production .for 30 years has been
browsed off by the stock. ...Natural.,
reproduction has been slow coming
in under the trees and in the open
places that were grassed over since
cattle were fenced out. It is coming
in slowly but is not general. He has
planted red pine,, white pine, walnut,
butternut and red oak in the open)
places.
More farms in .Huron Cafiniy have
woodlots than many of, the Counties
of Western Ontario. There are still
sufficient seed trees of the more de-
sirable in most of them to seed them
up naturally. elf . there .fire revenue
producing woodlets 50 years hence,
foundations need to be laidnow by
protecting .the small seedlings that
come in • naturally, or by starting
plantations. ••
•Forestry' may be practised inten-
sively in farm woodlots as the ma-
terial removed in thinnings and Me.
provement cuttings makes fine fuel
wood that can be' used or sold by
the farmer. There will always be a
market for' logs;..and 'proximity t)
markets. Good roads and trucks will
tend to make timber grown on farm
woodlots very valuable. There. are
many fine young stands (2-8 inches
in diameter, 20-60 feet high) that
would be benefited by wise thinning.
You will be surprised at the new low pricings t
evident throughout our entire store. Not. only
prices outstandingly lower, but the :values you are g'
ting for these prices are in many cases down .:to pre-
war standards.
Recalls Interesting. Early Days

When he got up he was not feeling
.very well and father told him that,
the had better not come over to the
council meeting, but he insisted that
he was all right and over he v3ent.
They were discussing something that
morning and up he jumped to have
his say. He stood speechless for a
time and then scratched his head
and said, "I have lost my point," and
sat down, much to the amusement -
of the other members. The night he
slept with his :boots on was the last
night we were in 'Goderich, and how
he got them off when he got home I
never heard.
Some of the Old-time Members.
The county council at that time
had upwards of fifty members, as
Hurofl and Bruce were unite!, but
that was the last year of the union,
as the following year the Bruce mem-
bers met at Walkerton. The mem-
bers of that i council, I believe, were
a very able body of men, both physi-
cally and inentally. They were near-
ly all of British birth and pioneers.
The Warden was Robert.Gibbons, the
county clerk was Peter Adamson, and
the county treasurer was Col. A. M.
Ross. As I recollect some of the.
Bruce members were fine speakers
and 'I liked to listen to them. Quite
a few of them were (Highland Scotch
and could speak the Gaelic and sev-
eral of them were Syne singers. I
remember two of them quite dia-
tinctly. One -was John Gilles. He
was a fine big 'broad -shouldered man,
a bachelor, and he often pieked me
up and carried me and told me stor. •
i'es about what fine deer and fish they
had up in Bruce county county. He
afterwards was a member of Par-
liament for one of the Bruce rid-
ings, :but I never saw him again. An-
other very jolly member wag Thomas
Adair. He was a grain buyer in
Southampton and a very fun'e singer.
Both of these men were very close
friends oe my father and they were
frequently together. I remember a
fess of the Huron men, one of theme
being Thomas Gibson, of Wroxeter.
He was 'a fine singer and I- believe
the only member' of the council who
vii•as a total abstainer. Humphrey
Snell, of H'ullett, was a memlber, and
a fine 'bi'g jolly man he was. He in-
vited me to come up and visit his
boys, but •:I never saw them until we
had reaehed manhood.
