Popular Stallion.s
. Once upon a time, not long ago, in
turn-ing over some old books, I found
a small diary of my father's It cov-
ered the years 1886 to 1889 and the
things therein contained seethed to
indicate that life went on then as it
does now, but the pace was shower.
Things were- a bit less strenuous, and
so far as I could discern in his com-
ments, no one seemed to worry about
the coming of Hitler or any other dis-
turbing element likely to disrupt hu-
man affairs.
On August 21, 1886, my brother de-
cided to go into the drug business and
he was apprenticed to a druggist in
a neighboring town. Father provided
the clothes for ., this new adventure.
The prices seem shockingly moder-
ate. The following items give some
idea of costs:

Of course it is hard to judge of
quality, style and 'fit. The cloth in
those days was fairly substantial, but
so far as fit and style is Concerned.
Making allowances for all differences,
modern clothes have improved.
According to the agreement, he re-
ceived $40, $50 and $60 .per annum
'for his services as an apprentice. He
paid for his board, $2.50 per week. I
made inquiries from local druggists
as to the pay received by apprentices
today. It would vary, of course, whe-
ther_. it was in village, town or city,
but the rate ranged from $8 to $22
per week. Quite • a difference, int it,
from' the old days of 86 to 89 when
$5 per month was the maximum at
least in country towns?
Father was a school teacher and
lived on a 50 -acre farm. His tax bill
in 1888 was $12—$20 to $25 was• the
ordinary rate on a hundred acres. ,In
those days there were no income. tax-
es nor any income on which they
could be levied. Top-notch salaries
for school teachers was $400 and I
recall that father lost a' schoel -ane
year to another man who offered to
dp the work for $299.
The products sold on the farm were
relatively low as compared with to-
day. The following butter prices give

This was dairy butter and ' the
creamery butter of today is a much
superior product.
Eggs ranged in price from llc to
13c in the summer months and, moved
up in the fall to 15c and 16c. Here,
again, quality is a factor. These
were not graded. Much of the work
on the old farm was done by a neigh-
bor and the standard rate of pay for
a man and -team was $2 per day. The
diary records one curious incident—
a law suit in regard to the purchase
of a horse. The problem was as to
whether or not the vendor had guar-
anteed the horse.

BAY FIELD
Law suits in -hose days were lar -
ly on matters of boundary fences,
drainage and quarrels arising out of
purchase and sale of livestock and
farm products. Judged from the res
ords, the people seemed to be a bit
more contentious in those days than
they are now. Of course, 'boundary
lines are more clearly defined and
there is not now the same opportun-
ity for legal. tangles. • Apparently
father was foreman of the jury. He
kept the, record of the. verdict: "We,
the jury, empanelled to hear and de-
tide upon the case of Beck versus
Saundelt:•" •unanimously agree' that no
guarantee had been proved against the
•defendan.t."
There is one other item which in-
dicates the different tempo of the age.
At the bottom of one page I find these
lines:
"Who was the boy and what was
his name who held the basket which
contained the five loaves. and , two
small fishes?" '
I looked a long time at these lines.
Why was • father worrying 'about that
.problem in 1886? It seems, strangely
distant and remote now. It most
have seemed equally distant then;
But these, , pioneers of Ontario were
great theologians and perhaps the
question had a significance to them
which it does not hold today. . Still,.
one can vaguely sense the startled
look of surprise as the loaves and fish
swelled to commercial proportions
and were set forth to feed the multi-
tude.
They were church -goers. That I
know from memory, but it also crops
out here and there' in his diary and
some times it is recorded that he
preached; and in keeping with the
spirit of the times, he took many of,
his texts from the Old Testament—
for these were stern men, bard work-
ing, and their God'was not particular-
ly gentle in His views on the frailties
of men. The emphasis was on pun-
ishment and that -was reflected in the
things they thought, the sermons they
preached, and the texts on which they
based their sermons.
