T. Holmes Whitechurch THE WINGHAM INGHAM AD 1' ANCE, T it +U RSDAY, SEPTEMBER ON, , 1909. r September Forecasts, Prof, Ricks gives the, following fore - oasts for September ;--- A The Moon is an the celestial equator on the god, within a few hours of perigee, hence decided barometric fluctuations, with probable thunder storms, will appear in many placesas early as the 2nd. During the 3rd, 4th and 5th, these disturbances will pass eastwardly over most parts of the country. Rising barometer and clear- ing, cooler weather will follow this period for several days. A regular storm period is central on the 10th, but we have calculated that the New Moon, or Moon's conjunction with Earth and Sun on the 14th, would retard the final culmination of this period. The magnetic crisis, occurring annually from about the 8th to the 15th of September, falls in this period, High temperature and low barometer may be expected by the 10th, and storms of notable character will organize and take up their east- ward march. These conditions will grow in magnitude and force during llth, 12th and possibly up to the 14th. If high barometer and change to cool- er follow immediately behind storms about 10th, llth and 12th, the New Moon on the 14th will lend its perturb- ing power to the reactionary period immediately following. On and about the 11th, the Earth passes a point in its orbit where Earth currents, auroral perturbations, and volcanic unrest, as a rule, appear in maximum intensity. This period, of course, is nearing the full force of the autumnal equinox, and storms peculiar to this season should not be allowed to surprise and overwhelm those who are naturally most exposed to their violence. A Reactionary Storm Period is ;central on the 15th, 16th and 17th. Should the storms of the, preceding period not subside before New Moon on 14th, threatening to stormy con- ditions will continue during the 15th to 17th, culminating on and touching the 16th in very positive and forceful disturbances. Within two or •three days of sunset on the 14th, seismic shakes will be most natural, and maximun tidal waves will visit many parts of the globe, especially in regions down toward, and beyond the equator. A Regular Storm Period is central on the 21st, the central day of the autumnal equinox. This period will bring prompt changes of temperature and barometric pressure as early as the loth in western parts of the country. B'y the 21st these conditions will bring on storms of rain, wind and thunder, and during the 21st to 23rd these storms will touch most parts of the country in their eastward sweep to the Atlantic. High barometer, stiff gales from the northwest, and change to very cool nights will most probably follow the storms of this period, bringing frosts to numerous localities in states to the northward. A. Reactionary Storm Period is central on the 20th, 27th and 28th. This period leads into the Mercury disturbance, which begins about the 27th and runs into October. The Moon is in perigee and on the celestial equator on the 29th, and in opposition with Earth and Sun on the 30th. This period promises some of the most de- cided equinoctial disturbances of this autumnal season, The Moon being nearest the Earth, on the equator and at Full Moon, so near the time when the Sun is centrally on the equator, in the nature of the ease we may expect violent perturbations of the atmos- phere, as well as great swells and tidal waves along the coasts and open seas. The crisis of this period promises to be retarded, so as to fall on and touch- ing the 29th and 30th. A very low reading of the barometer at this time, especially in all the regions adjacent to the Gulf and south Atlantic coasts, will be positive warning of violence and dange a Marked storm con- ditions will prevail over most sections of the country at this time, with promise of prolonged disturbances into the first few days of 'October. This really promises" to be the turning perjod, when summer conditions wilt give place to autumnal, and when tropical storms will make a last battle with boreal influences and be im• mediately followed by change to Much cooler weather and frosts over much of the country to the northward, From September 28th to October 4th, constitutes a very decided volcanic and seismic crisis. Kilted Nineteen Sheep. Mr. Jas. A. Goodall of Belesood had nineteen sheep kilIed,under one tree en his farm in East Gtarafraxa during an electric storm. They were insured in the Peel and Maryborough Fire In- surance Company and Mr. McEwing went down the next morning to ex- amine them. Ilse says he newer saw a ease like it. They were lying on the ground as thick as they could be plac- ed together and already were so far gone that the skins could not be taken off. The tree was very little shattered but a etreak,eould be seen from the very top down. Paralyzed By Lumbago, Manuallabor ar even light exercise is impossible with lumbago.

Combines and mergers are the order of the day. The daily papers of last week, informed the public that a mer- ger had been formed of the leading carriage factories in Canada. A, hold- ing company is being formed with ;a capital of $1,000,000, $2,000,000 pre- ferred and $2,000,000 common stock, with a bond issue as well, The prin- cipal object of the merger is to effect economies anion g the factories taken over. Fell Off Barn, A terrible accident happened in San- gegn which resulted in the death 'of David Wildfang on the 0th con. He was engaged in shingling McDonald's barn near the mountain and when they went to call him for dinner they found him lying on the ground ancon- seious, .Apparently he slid off the roof. His back was broken and he died on Saturday. Fle was about 00 years of age and leaves a wife and two children,—[Kincardine Review. Child Crushed To Death. A sad fatality took place • on August 21th, on the farm of Peter Kopa,s, about a mile from Listowel, on the townline, between :Jima and Wallace.. The farmer's children were playing on a large pile of logs, when the pile be. gan to move. The children hastened to get to safety, but one of theist, Ed- na, aged six years, wascaught under a heavy piece of timber. When her body was extricated she was dead, as she bad been terribly crushed by the log. Among The Hogs. A disease very much like cholera has been discovered among several hogs around Ottawa, 43 animals have been destroyed by order of the Chief Dominion Veterinarian, and five herds are under quarantine. The outbreak is attributed to the practice of feeding hogs on garbage. Reports gathered from the various meat -pack- ing centres of the United States show tuberculosis of bogs to be on the in- crease and causing heavier loss to raiser and packer alike than any other disease. Federal inspection at the slaughter houses of the country show two per cent. of the hogs slaughtered to be effected with tuberculosis. Have You Nervous Dyspepsia ?

A Bet Won. Missouri is a funny place. Last week a lad from the backwoods came further north and seeing a young lady playing a piano, ran tohisbrother, saying, "Oh, Bill, come and see this girl. She is knocking regular thunder out of a bureau." Two state senators were boasting of their qualifications' one day at Jefferson City. One said, "I am a minister ;" the other said, "I am a lawyer, and I'll bet $10 you don't know the Lord's prayer." The money went up, and the Missouri clergyman began, "Now I lay me down to sleep, etc." "It is your, money," said the lawyer, "I did not believe you knew it. I have not heard it all before in twenty years." Engineer Released. Cornelius Kennedy; the lean who was sentenced by Justice Riddell to eight months in the Wellington coun- ty jail for criminal negligence in re- gard to the wreck at Harriston last winter, was released two months be- fore his time was out, on August 20th. Kennedy was the engineer in charge of the train that took the track for Southampton instead of Owen Sound. There was a collision which caused the death of a man named Root of Palmerston. When he was convicted 2rnd sentenced a great deal of sympa- thy was expressed for him wherever the facts of the ease became known. A large number of petitions were sent in on his behalf. A Big Dairy Farm. Dairying is to be made the chief line on the Gunn farm near Beaverton, Ont.

As an illustration of his success he showed. The herald samples of last year's Golden Russets which were perfect in every respect, These apples were kept in a cellar on a wooden floor where the moisture was equivalent to the moisture of the apple. Mr. Wiederhold States that apples will not keep on a cement floor as the cement draws the moisture front the fruit. A Rough Passage. The Kincardine Review gives the following t—The Ring Edward en- countered a very heavy gale on Thurs- day night. She was corning down from Southampton when it became certain that she would have difficulty in making Kincardine harbor, so she turned about. The boat pitched and the waves washed over her, until some of the passengers were well nigh panic-strioken. She got back to Southampton safely, however, but some of the passengers took train from there rather than face the gale again, Among the Kincardine pas- sengers were Mise Alice Bissett, Miss Mamie McRae, Miss McCaskiit and Messrs,. Fleming and B. Wood. Died From Shouting. Arnold Brown, a young man 22 years of age went from Sherbrooke to Detroit recently, and on Aug. 22, he died at the hospital as the result of too much excitement over a game of baseball between the Tigers and the Washington team at the Ball Park. The young man, an ardent baseballiat was seized with a violent hemorrhage after attending a game a couple of days ago, and his death the physicians say, can only be ascribed to the vigor- ous manner in which, he used his lungs in "rooting" for the home team, thus bringing on the attack. Up to with- in a few moments of his death his in- terest in the game was unabated, and he continued to inquire eagerly for .the latest baseball scores. Shot The Horse. • Last Wednesday forenoon .a some- what tragic occurrence took place in the township of East Oarafraxa. Two farmers of the same surname, and quite nearly related, occupy ad- joining farms in the 12th con. On the forenoon of the day mentioned while a son of one of these farmers and the hired man were working at one end of the field, the greater part of which was in oats nearly ripe, a horse belonging to the other farmer jumped the fence into the field. The young man had a shotgun and let fiy at'the horse, apparently to frighten it. His aim, however, was too good, for he peppered the animal from the flank to the neck. One of the shots must have cut a main artery, for the animal bled to death inwardly in a short time. The young man went on with his work, and did not know of -the dis- astrous results of his shooting until he went home to dinner. The animal killed was a fine young horse.
