Dairy Instructor Barr, of 'western
Ont Ir io, flays that the production of
ebec se is falling of about a half in the
western counties on account of the
dry weather.
---Peter Orerar, aged 78 years, whose
parents were the first white setticx's of
North Easthope Township, died on
Wednesday last, He had lived on the
same farm for 71 years.
---Mr. R. White, who has a pasture
farm near Montague, east of Smith's
Falls,. has a curiosity in a lamb with.
six well -formed Legs. He bas taken
especial care of it, nncl the lamb is the
largest in the flock.
-Among the American cities Bos-
ton leads with 50,282 Canadians Chi-
cago is second with 31,779 ; and then
follows Detroit with 28,941, Fall River
with 22,501, New York with 21,920,
Lowell with 19,159, and Buffalo with
17,242.
- There are more than 50,000 blind
persons in the United States. Ac-
cording to Dr. Park Lewis, two-fifths
of all existing blindness might have
been avoided had proper preventive
measures or curative remedies been
suitably employed.
-Lake Winnipeg is now depleted of
white -fish, the result of the commer-
cial onslaught of the past dozen years.
Even the fishing combine is with-
drawing its tugs. Soon all the lakes,
which once teemed with this valuable
food fish, will have seen the last of
thein.
•
- According to the Chicago Tribune
the number of homicides and deaths
by violence in the United States in
1005 was 9,212 as against 8,482 in 1904.
Suicides 9,082, as against 9,240 in 1904.
Killed on team railroads in 1905, 3,142;
injured, 15,904 ; killed on electric
and elevated railroads, 434 ; injured,
2,622.
-X despatch from Helena, Mont.,
says that the largest individual wool
clip ever grown on the American con-
tinent was shipped from Billings,
Montana, to.a, Boston wool flrm. The
clip weighed. 1,500,000 pounds, and 44
cars were required to carry it. The
owner refused an offer of 24c a pound
for the wool.
-A London township farmer nam-
ed Manning was brought into the of-
fice of Dr. Hugh Stevenson, London,
with a sewing needle stuck in his
throat. The needle had been dropped
accidentally in some apple sauce, of
which Manning partook; With the
aid of the X-ray it was found imbed-
ded well down in the throat, but with
much clifflculty was extracted.
-Grain has been harvested in fine
condition in most of the western
counties of Ontario, and the crop is
from fair to good. Oats in some parts
were short, owing to the dry weather.
Barley and wheat have been fully up
to the average, and are yielding well.
Pastures in Simcoe and Grey have
dried up. Those farmers who grew
corn largely have benefitted greatly
during this season.
- Eben James, of the Union Station,
Toronto, who has just returned from
a trip to Rochester, says that the crop
of apples there is very large. The On-
tario crop is now estimated at (35 per
cent., which is lower than last year,
and prices will rule very well for win-
ter apples. At the convention of Ap-
ple Growers, recently meeting in St.
Louis, U. S. A., the estimate for the
crop in the United States this year is
56,000,000 barrels, which is eight or
ten. millions . above the average
yield.
- For a child who is affected with
eczema you will find nothing more
soothing and harmless than this cos-
metic jelly, which is inexpensive and
inost easily made. Seven ounces of
rose water and thirty grains of gum
tragacanth ; let soak over night, strain
forcibly through fine muslin and add
one-half ounce of alcohol, one-half
Ounce of glycerine, and a pinch of
boric acid. This may be applied to
the entire body of the child, and when
the skiu is rough or the little face
smarting from the wind it will be
found the greatest comfort. You can
rise it yourself, too, to keep your
hands from chapping.
--The drilling of new oil wells in
Tilbury continued, there being now 31
complete outfits in operation. Sotno
of the wells ate reported to be yield-
ing 100 barrels of oil daily. Although
oil is of far more value than gas the
latter when produced in great quanti-
ties is valuable, one of the wells in Til-
bury field has 400 lbs, of rock pressure
and raised 80 lbs of gas in 60 seconds,
which tested with a mercury gauge,
ran 900,000 feet of gas in a day. An-
other well of the same company, was
open for 60 days, and produced 1,000,-
000 feet of gas in a day. The total
production of this company is 2,500,-
000 feet of gas. Other companies in
the field also reported plenty of gas.
Chatham only uses 21,000,000 feet of
gas per annum, while the wells of
these companies at the present time
are producing at the rate of 700,000,-
000 feet per annum.
Stomach Medicine Is Useless.
Impossible to 'cure catarrh in the
nose by dosing the stomach. Send
the healing vapor of Catarrltozone
after the germs and yon will at once
accomplish good, Any ease of catar-
rh is curable, all that's necessary is to
inhale Caatarrhozone---you stop hawk-
ing, nostrils at'e cleared, throat is
healed and freed of phlegm; every
vestige of the trouble is forever driven
from the system. If you want per-
manent cure for catarrh, throat trou-
ble or bronchitis, Catarrlsozone is a
stand-by. Two sizes, 2.5e and $1,00 at
all dealers.
Clinton.
The egg business, always .brisk in
the spring, is falling 'Ott considerably
now,
A carload of lambs went through
here to Buffalo on Wednesday, loaded
at Belgrave ; such a shipment is un-
usual, owing to the fact that lambs
aro scarce,
Home idea of the ilrouth experienc-
ed may be gathered from the fact that
in digging a grave the other day, Mr.
Orich found the earth dry and dusty
four feet down.
Mr.
0,
McKinnon, nnonr classical master
at the
Collegiate, is ill of typhoid
fever, but his condition is as favorable
as could be expected at this stage of
his illness, Still with the most rapid
recovery ho will not be able to resume
his duties until some weeks after the
opening of the 0. T.
There were three interments in
Clinton cemetery on Monday after-
noon of last week, and alt three funer-
als reaching there about the same
time, there must have been nearly
1500 people present. It is very rarely
indeed, that so many burials take
place there on the same day.
In this imrnediate vicinity there has
not been a good soaking rain for
many weeks, and the consequence is
that vegetation of all kinds is drying
up. Gardeners complain that veget-
ables are nothing like what they
should be; pastures are burnt up, and
stock is suffering in consequence. A
rain of several days' duration would
be most acceptably.
Dr. MoAsh returned last week from
London, England, where he spent
several months attending the great
hospitals in that greatest of cities.
While there he passed the examina-
tion which entitles hire to add to his
name the letters M. R. C. P. -Member
of the Royal Council of Physicians.
The Dr. will take a few days rest be-
fore locating again, but where that
will be, he has not yet decided.
On Wednesday of last week, as Mr.
Henry Fisher and wife were on their
way to Colborne in a covered buggy,
they encountered a separator and en-
gine on the Huron road, a couple of
miles west of town. One of the separ-
ator men took hold of the horse to
lead it by, when it threw hire over by
the fence, wheeled sharp around, and
upset the buggy. Mr. and Mrs. Fish-
er were both badly bruised and cut,
but fortunately had no bones broken.
The buggy was wrecked.
On Tuesday a well-filled train of ex-
cursionists from Berlin went to Gode-
rich to enjoy an outing at the lake.
That they were not all teetotallers was
evidenced by the fact that they took
half a carload of lager beer with thein
to satisfy their thirst. On the way
home some of the more jubilant ones
fired a large sky rocket through the
window of Mr. Lucas' parlor, adjoin-
ing the station. It set fire to the lace
curtain and would have caused a
disastrous fire had it not been noticed
promptly.

Health For Rundown Women.
From the experience of Mrs. Jno.
Panke, Saskatoon, nothing compares
with Ferrozone. "At times I was
confined to my bed and couldn't do
any work. I was run down in flesh,
lost strength, my appetite failed, my
color was pallid. Weary and cast -
down, it seemed I could'nt catch up.
Ferrozone started a new kind of life m
my blood, built me up, vitalized and
strengthened my nerves, and finally
cured my heart and stomach pains."
Ferrozone is a rebuilder that has
special virtue in feibale ailments.
Sold everywhere in 50c boxes ; try
Ferrozone.
Teeswater.

of 22 from 1003.
Miss Eva McRae, 3rd con., has re-
turned to %Vest Garafaxa to take
charge of the school from which she
had resigned at vacation. The school
board had failed to secure a teacher
and asked her to return for a short
time.
Mr. Duncan McKenzie, V. S. D., of
Chicago, is spending a irsonth's vaca-
tion with his parents on the 4th con.
Mr. McKenzie is a student in the Il-
linois Medical College, and has a posi-
tion on the staff of McKillop Veterin-
ary College, where' his duties com-
mence early in October.
After an absence of thirty years
from Teeswater Mr, John Dodd, now
of Dayton, Ohio, called upon old
friends here last week. He is a cousin
of Mr. J. E. Scott, 8th con., and hav-
ing walked out to Mr. Scott's faun he
said lte had great difficulty in re-
cognizing the country so great is the
change by clearing and improvement
since he last saw it.
One of the very early settlers of
Kinloss township passed away about
half past eleven o'clock Monday night
in the person of Mrs. Win. Falconer,
who lived with her son Win. on the
13th con., not far from Langside. Her
maiden name Wats Mary Lockheart
and she had. reached the advaneed age
of 78 years mid 6 months. Mrs, Fal-
eoner had been blind for the past
three years, having lost her sight by
the growth of cataracts on her eyes.
Being of it very industrious and active
disposition she felt the loss of her
right very lnueli and since suffering
that affliction she had been gradually
wasting away.

sels, now of Gladstone, Dian., does not
improve in health. Ile has beeu prac-
tically off work for about two years.
Sam. and Jas. l3eattie, of Barrie;
Robt. Beattie, of Winghaur ; and Jno,
Beattie, of Chesley, former residents,
were in town last week attending the
races. The first mentioned, plumps
the scale at :300 pounds. Itis chestnut
mare won lit money in the 2.22 pace
on Wednesday.
J. Anderson Coulter, of Ingersoll,
son of Mrs. M. A. Coulter, Seaforth,
formerly of Brussels, has been elected
to the position of Mayor of Ingersoll,
to succeed the late Mr. Boles,
who died a few weeks ago. Mr. Coul-

Robt. Thomson has arrived back to
town from a business trip to Winni-
peg and the Coast. He had an enjoy-
able and successful outing which will
yield good profits in the promotion of
his produce business, Alfred Baker
did not come home with Mr. Thomson
but stayed off at North Dakota to
visit relatives. Mr. Baker inved'i:ed in
some Winnipeg lots, and farm pro-
perty as well which we hope will yield
him good returns.
At the races on Wednesday of last
week, Dr. McKelvey's horse ran away
owing to the bridle coming off and the
miracle was that more serious damage
was not done. The runaway rig
caught Geo. Brown's buggy and gave
it a bad twist and threw Chas. Alder -
son's daughter down, breaking a rib
and doing other damage. Alex. Mc-
Kelvey, who was in charge of the
equine, was precipitated to the ground
but escaped without much injury.
The runaway struck the Judge's stand
when horse and buggy dissolved part-
nership.
