JAILER'S REPORT
Mr Dickson reported that there are at
present in the jail eight persons, one of
whom, an insane female, 88 years of age,
is awaiting transfer to the asylum; two of
the others prisoners are aged 70 and 74,
and totally unable to work.
REPORT 01' THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.
Concerning the applications of East,
West and South Huron Farmers' Institutes,
for a grant of $25, the committee recom-
mend that no grant be made. This re-
port was adopted, but emended at the last
minute, and the grant made as usual.
Conoerning the request of the 83rd Battal-
ion for a grant of 25o. per day to all the
mesabers, while performing the annual
drill, the committee recommend that no
srant be made, as it considers the Domin-
ion Government the proper party to make
the grant. In council an attempt was
m ide to carry a straight grant of $400 to
the volunteers, this failed, as did also an
attempt to carry a grant of 100 a day.
Goderich Horticultural Society made ap-
plication for a grant of IMO to assist in
making an exhibition of fruit at the Col-
ambian exhibition. The sum of $100 was
granted, with the understanding that the
fruit be taken from as many sections of the
county as possible, and labelled to how
where it comes from.
THE FINANCE COMMITTEE
recommended payment of a number of
accoun . In reference to the claim ofDon.
a1d-lW6Innfs, of Usborne, referred to this
comnlittee, the fsum of $100 was granted
him. t seems that in some way his horse
tumbled over Exeter bridge and was killed,
hence the olaim.
COUNTY WARDS.
On application -by the -reeves -of aauninf-
palities interested, the following persons
were made county wards, at the figures
speoified:-Sarah Williams, Brussels, at
$100 per year; Margaret McGuire, Ama-
belle McLean and Johanna McKay, Gode-
rich; at $72 each; Susannah Ransom and
Joseph Samson, of Stephen, $100 each;
William, Margaret and Robt. Currie, Ash-
field, at $60 each; James Barnes, West Wa.
wanosh, $100; Wesley H. Sutton, Exeter,
$72. This makes 21 wards the coanoil
has put on thie year, at an average cost of
$90 each.
Crops in Ontario.
A bulletin has been just issued by
the Ontario Bureau of Industries giv-
ing some interesting information re-
garding craps and live stock in Ontar-
io. A table showing the average tem-
perature and precipitation, the latter
including rain and snow as well, dis-
closes the fact that both April and May
were colder on the average in 1893
than in the previous year. Daring
every month, except March, the aver-
age temperature has been lower.
With respect to fall wheat the re-
turns for the province may be sum-
marized thus: acreage reduced by at
least one-quarter; growth backward;
general condition variable; prospects
on June lst net quite up to the aver-
age
The rye crop seems to have stood the
winter and spring better than fall
wheat, and to be in a promiaing con-
dition.
The total amount of grain for the
province will be small. The eontinued
raids of the late spring delayed the
sowingalf spring vehe it in most coun-
ties. The acerage will probablybe
about the same as last year. Sowing
barley was in progress .Tune lst. In
comparison with former years the acre-
age will likely be still further reduced.
10jaon well drained and high lands oats
were put in early and such had a vig-
orous apearance at the beginning of
the month. As far as it was possible
to report the returns' were' very favor-
able, in fact this crop was reported as
the most promising of the grain crops
on June 1st.
If favorable weather should continue
the hay cut will be one of the best in
recent years.
The promise for apples is not as great
as usual, more particular in the west-
ern half of the province, as the blos-
soming has been comparatively light,
especially among the winter sorts.
Prums appear 'to have Buttered more
than any other fruit; a larg5 nuinber
of treeshave died in the counties of
Grey and Simcoe during the winter.
Raspberries, *here not„laid. down, were
somewhat injured by the heavy end*,
yet taken altogether the reports re-
garding small fruits are encouraging.
Reports concerning bees are far from
satisfactory. The mortality is greater
than usual, ranging. from lab 1.00 per
Cent., And averaging ,ever per tent

respondents wrote. With regard to la-

This report was amended as follows: -Mo -

ferred to the Road and Bridge °emulates
to report at next meeting of council, and
that in the meantime the engineer prepare
a statement of the number and value of the
bridges costing municipalities, for the use
of such committee.

whether or not a house of refuge should be
erected in thief county. There will be no
meeting of the Council in December.
Soinam. -A very enjoyable time was
spent at a social at the residenee of
Mrs D. Sinclair Queen St., on Thurs-
day. evening of 'last week, under the
auspices of the Melville church Chris-
t,ain Endeavor Society. It was of a
literary character,and all present, with
a few exceptions. wore a badge to re-
present some anther or some work.
Most of the time was spent in trying
to guess ,what each one represented;
some splendid representatives were
presented. There was also a short
musical program.
