BUILT IN. SEVENTIES The Queen's Hotel chaneed, hands this week, the new owner being Mr. Amos Corby, of London. The Queen's, is one of the • oldest andwidely knowi . hotels in Western, Ontario. It was. built by the late Thomas,. Stephens In the early sev- enties, following the fire which prac- tically destroyed the business section of the town.' The hotel was successfully run by Mr. Stephens and members of his family'until 1936, when on the deatb. (af Miss Grace .Stepaaene, it was pur- chased by .Mr. T. D. O'Neill, of Bale wie. When Me O'Neill took over the business in October, 1936, he made extensive alterations and improve- anents tia the interior of the building and conducted it until July of last year, when he +disposed of the pro- perty to Mr. J. O. Ward; of Toronto.. Just a month after Mr. Ward ac- quired the. property 'he ,passed away from, an acute .attack of appendicitis', and since then, the business has been carried on by Mrs. Ward, whose busi- ness ability and well known haseital- ity has made the hotel one of the' racist popular commercial and family stopping places in Huron. . Mr. Corby, the new proprietor,- is well known in this district, as well as to the commercial travellers who cover the district. He antends , to imake, further improvements to the in- terior and when these are completed he will have one of the largest. and most handsomely furnished hotels in Western Ontario. • An Appeal r To Farmers The farmers of the County of Hur- on 'itre being asked by 'the National War Finance Committee toelban the Governnaett, for the duration of the war, 10 per cent. of their pay cheques for milk, cream, eggs and other farm produce. Crops in this county are splendid and prices are reasonably good. The appeal for the 10 per cent. i there- fore receiairig a generous response. Payanent is made by giving the pro- ducers War . Savings Stamps instead otacash .for the 10 per. cent The stainpa are placed . in folders until 34 worth is collected., when they can be changed. -for certificates. , Every $4.00 certificate will be redeemed by,' the Government in .71/2 years by the pay - silent of $5.00, which means a 3 per cent ,liareetreent.

Creameries, • cheese factories and produce dealers will be supplied with the necessary stamps for the conveni- ence of their customers.. The plan has received the endorse - tion ,of the 'Huron County Federation of Agriculture, and Mr. A.

PRICES REALIZED WERE GOOD There seemed to be more than av- erage interest displayed in the ad- journed tax sale of Seaforth property held in the TOwn.Hall on Saturday last. There was a good attendance, and while biding was sometimes brisk and sometimes dragged, the interest was maintained until all the properties were finally disposed of. Pr,evioue to the sale, six properties were redeemed by the property own- ers. Of the balance, ten were sold and the town bid in the eighteen, which remelted. The former hospital property on Victoria Street, now a department house, was disposed of at the first tax sale, held a week previously, to Mr. W. -T. Teal,. for WM.17.

Case Settled Ten years of negotiation and litiga- tions in Huron County courts have ended with the handing down of a judgnient in the naw famous Hay Township drainage case, in which two farmers sued the municipality for wrongful distress and damages. They were William F. Alexander, who was awarded 3308, and Duncan Stewart, e he was awarded $76.44 anacosts by Judge J. L. Killoran, of Stratford, who heard voluminous evidence at Gode- rich in adjourned sessions extenning over a long period. It was all over a dramn. that,, was never built, but the project die go, so far that an- engineer was engaged to make a report, which was adopted by Hay Township Council and a by- law passed authorizing the assessment of costs against the lands affect- ed. Alexander refused to pay his share, and Stewart paid his under protest. Both took action to recover. Judge Killoran rules that the toy/male by- law is illegal and iavalid, and that the petitiOn'vr,s not suffieienity sign- ed. Just what effect the judgment will have on those farmers in the scheme who did pay is. moblematical. • Clinton Manager Goesto Goderich General regret is being felt and ex- pressed in 'Clinton over the trancrer to Goderich of H.

UNDER WAR MEASURES ACT Two Peel County farmers . were found guilty by Magistrate F. C. Mc- Donald, of Brampton, last week on charges under the War Measures Act. Both -farmers had been found guilty of using .creamery -owned cans to' ship cream to other than. the owners of the cans, of withholding creamery cans from the owners, and of placing a foreign 'substance in, the, erea,m. cans. The evidence showed that •Mr. Nor- man MacLeod,a farmer living near Snelgrove, had seven cans belonging to aix creaMeries, in addition to those required -for his regular shipments of cream, as follows: Grand Valley, Ac- ton (2), Erin, Palmerston, Orange- ville and Tottenham creameries, He had ateno time ever shipped cream to any of these. Mr. Arthur Ford, of R.R. No. 3, Caledon, had cans belonging to Tees - water, Orangeville, Streetsville and Mount rarestcreameries, and at no time had ever sold cream' to any of these. Water was found itt two cans on this farm. - These were two test cases of an Order issued last March uader the War Measures Act, to safeguard the supplies of tin and steel. ' Ln previous years many cans were put to impro- per uses on the farms, and creamer- ies were required to buy thousands of cane each year to replace them. Now no new cans are available, so it was necessary to compel all holders of creamery cans to return them to the Owners. Unless each creamery uses ondy its own cans, it is practically im- possible to .trace the cans and pre- vent losses. Creameries co-operated, and for a couple of months this spring and sum- mer held cream ean exchange a at many points throughout Ontario. To- day any farmer who has a can not belonging to the creamery where he sellshis cream, can batad, the empty can in at any creamery, or place it .on any creamery trudk, and it will be delivered to the owners. Under the War Measures Act, as, it stands, it is now an offence for any farmer to do any of the, following, with respect to creamery -owned cream (a) To hold, and fail to promptly return to• the owner any can not cur- rently being usedto transport cream to the owner of such can. (b) To use any such can to trans- port cream to any other than the owner of the can. ..... (c) To put anything except milk or cream Into such can.
