This sale is genuine ; the reason of this big cut in prices is, we
have had a splendid season, far beyond our expectations ; we are pre-
paring for spring ; our store is too small, and we never carry over
goods from one season to another ; we want to reduce the stock ; we
are giving the people of Huron county a chance to buy seasonable
goods below reasonable prices at a time when they need them.
Store open every evening till 10 o'clock.

The first shipment of sugar beets from
this section to the Berlin sugar factory
went out ou Monday. It consisted of
three carloads.
On Sunday Captain Hogan and Lieut.
Allen, who have been for some time in
command of the S. A. local, corps, con-
ducted their "farewell" and to -day
were transferred to Goderich.
Our citizens are not after all faring too
badly for hard coal nor are they paying
famine prices as was some time since
prophesied. The price is $7.50 per ton.
Tho new post -office is being construct-
ed with the idea of having a clock in
the tower, and the council of next year
are expected to provide it.
The apple packing season is practic-
ally over and Mr, D, Cantolon estimates
that 100,000 barrels were shipped from
this county alone. His amount ran
over 23,000 barrels,
Curiosities of the season are con-
stantly presenting themselves, and now
the latest strange act is the fact that
this year's pullets are lying eggs -some-
thing unheard of before. The 1st of
February being considered an early date
for chicks of the previous year to com-
mence to lay.
Rev. Mr. Medd of Hensall, who has
been very ill at the home of his brother,
Mr. J. G. Medd, for the last couple of
weeks, is improving nicely, but will not
bo able to move to Hensall for consider-
able time,
Mr. D. Cantelon.shipped 860 barrels
of apples on the steamer Sicilian which
sailed from Quebec for Liverpool a week
ago, but on its way down the St.
Lawrence it ran aground and had to
return for repairs. The Sicilian has
again left port, but it is feared that
much of her cargo has been ruined.
Mr. J. Wood, of Goderich township
tells his experience in raising sugar
beets, and it is hardly probable that the
recital thereof will cause any one to
"break their neck" in the eagerness to
raise sugar beets. From 11 acres he
raised a little over 16 tons, the price
therefore being $$.50 per top ou the cars,
which makes a gross iucome of $56.
That looks like a large amount, but the
plowing, harrowing, planting, weeding,
pulling, cleaning and shipping took five
weeks of good hard labor,
-It is intended in due course to form
a joint stook company, with a capital of
$100,000, to take over the Goderich
Organ Company, and with a .new and
thoroughly up-to-date factory and plenty
of capital this institution will be one of
the most substantial mauufacturiug con-
cerns in the Province,
