that the time has come when they must

Russetts Well Preserved
Mr. Win. Austin brought into TIIE
ADVANVI" Office A few choice russett
apples which were just as solid as the day
they were picked off the trees. It is re-
markable how this kind of apple has
been so well preserved throughout the
winter. They were too good to keep in a
newspaper office though and now all we
have is the pleasant recollections of them.

East Wawanosh, met with a rather ser.
ious accident while cultivating on Mon-

Irwin was thrown headlong to the ground
and the drill tumbled over on him, break-
ing both bones in his left arm above the
elbow and splintering a piece off one ol
the bones. Mr. Irwin was hurried to the
Wingbam Hospital where lie is doing a�
well as can be expected, however lie will
be unable to do much on his farm thi,,
summer. We understand that Mr. Rob.
ert Mason has been onpged to look after
the farm.
