Enforcing The Law.
Me. James Bryan, Dornielon Gov
er•n:nent inepector of fruit, laid two
charges recently against two Kincar-
dine apple shippers for packing fruit
below the standard. Where have been
more convietious this year than here-
tofore. The government has made up
its mind to stamp out fraudulent
marking of apples and keep up the
standard,
A 'Serious Charge.
Mrs, Wilson of Brantford has laid Ji
charge, made in a signed statement,
against the John IT. Stratford hospital
of that city, She went to the institu-
tion to see her husband about four
days after he bad been taken there
with paralysis, Qn examining him
she says site found a handful of mag-
gots on his neck. The nurse partly
admits the story, but there is doubt as
to where the vermin carne from. The
hospital authorities think they were
in the man's flannel shirt, which had
been in a drawer all summer at his
home, and was put on hien jest before
removal to the hospital. The affair is
under investigation,
Capt. Bernier, of Arctic fame, spoke
recently before the Canadian Club of
Montreal, saying, amongst other
things, that the whole of the northern
archipelago has been annexed by hien
as the result of his trip, 4 territory of
not less than 500,000 eguare miles in
extent. He had left a slab on Mont-
ville Island announcing the formal
taking possession of the whole of this
archipelago.
He spoke of the tremendous value
of the fisheries in the north, saying if
Newfoundland came into the Canadi-
an federation, as she ought to do,
Canada would be able to control the
fish market of the world. What Can-
ada ought also to have was the Green-
land coast, now belonging to Den-
mark, which would secure the full
control of the northern fishing
grounds. He thought if the matter
was put before the British govern-
ment by Canada it might be easily ob-
tained by means of negotiations by
which Denmark would be offered
other land in the Pacific in exchange.
He also spoke of the value of Arctic
explorations as a means of forestall-
ing the weather, For instance he was
able to foretell a line open fall in Can-
ada this year, because he left the ice
300 miles further north than usual.

NOTICE,
The Annual Meeting of the Biuevale
(Ibeese and Butter Co., Limited, will
be held in the Foresters' Hall, Blue -
vale, on Friday, December 3rd, at 1.30
o'clock p. m., for the eleotiou of Direc-
tors and the transaction of any other
besiness that may be brought before
the meeting, By order..
JOHN BURGESS, Secretary.
Nor. ---Ladies are invited to attend.
A. lecture on "The separation and care
of cream," and other dairy interests,
will .be delivered by an instructor
from Agricultural College, Guelph,
Brantford Doctors In Arms.
At a recent meeting of the Brant
ford City Council, in discussion on
hospital affairs, Ald. Ward made the
statement tiara doctor bad spoken to
hint of unnecessary butchery at the
hospital with no other consideration
than that of profit. The remarks of
the alderman have'aroused the Medi-
cal Association to action, and in a let --
ter to the press, Ald. Ward was
charged with malicious slander and
was challenged to make good the
name of his medical informant, The
doctors may take legal action in the
matter. It was pointed out that over
30 per cent. of the operations at the
hospital are performed free. .
Honest John.
Mr. John Tolmie, M. P. for North
Bruce; has secured harbor grants for
all the harbors in his riding --Port El-
gin, Southampton, Lions Head and
Wiarton. Kincardine is consoled
with a public building grant this time,
but Mr. Tolmie has something hand-
some up his sleeves for his home town
next year. When asked why all these
grants are going to Grit ridings. Mr.
Tolmie just smiles and looks wise.
He does not want to tell until near
the next election, But the truth is
that Mr. Tolmie is fixing up his har-
bors for the new Canadian Navy.
He intends to build a dry dock at Kin-
cardine.
(Toronto News).
Mr. McBride has won an over-
whelming victory in British Columbia.
There is no doubt the Ottawa Govern-
ment was greatly interested in the
contest. It was eager to retrieve its
defeat in British Columbia a year ago,
and probably it was only under Fed-
eral persuasion that some of the Lib-
eral candidates were induced to enter
the contest. While defeated, they
will get consolation in the form of
high Federal appointments. The elec-
tion greatly enhances Mr. McBride's
personal prestige and indicates that
British Columbia is decisively opposed
to the Liberal party both at Ottawa
and at Victoria. As British Columbia
has gone, so will go the whole West
in the early future. When the crash
finally comes at Ottawa it will be as
complete as that which we have just
witnessed in the Pacific Province and
as was witnessed in Ontario five years
ago.
Meeting Of The Huron County
Council,
Tho Council of the Corporation of
the County of Huron will meet in the
Council Chamber, in the Town of
Goder•iclr, on Tuesday, the 7th day of

counts for settlement must be placed
with the Clerk on or before the above
date.

His Sight Restored.
R. B. Atkins of Fort William, aged
fifty-five, formerly of Owen Sound,
has been afflicted for years with cata-
ract in the right eye, which finally be-
came totally blind. Oculists refused
to operate for fear ~of affecting the
other eye, On Sunday, Mr. Atkins,
who is a blacksmith, was shaving,
preparatory to going to church, when
the electric fight bulb swung against
the eye ; when the shock was over Mr.
Atkins found that he could see. It
appears that the skin burst in the
centre and was drawn back to the
corner of the eye. Mr. Atkins went
thankfully to church and since has
gone about his duties.
Clinton.
The annual commencement enter-
tainment of the Collegiate will be
given in the town hall on Dec. Oth.
Walter Gordon Craig, Toronto's fav-
orite drantatic monologist, has been
secured for the evening and a treat is
in store for the friends of the= Col-
legiate.
While Mr. Will. Carter, engineer
for the Jackson Mfg. Co., was the
other day aseleting in removing the
fence in front of the former 'Unisons
Bank building he found a jack plane
under the capping of ono of the posts.
It had evidently been placed there and
forgotten when the fence was being
built about a teoro of years ago and
Was .just about as good as the day it
was covered up.
A number of Citizens disgusted with
the state of the principal streets have
requested It1r.W. G. Smyth to again
offer his services as a member of the
council, remembering that It was
while he was Chairman of the corm
nsIttee that Victoria street was n1a-
eadatnized and made a credit to the
town, It has kept in splendid state,
in just snail condition as all the high�
ways leading into town should be #n.
Protecting Sheep From Dogs.
Persons who have used bells on
sheep have claimed much of merit for
them. A good-sized bell for each 25
or 30 sheep in the flock, attached by a
good strap around the sheep's neck
will often protect the flock from dogs.
One of the greatest hindrances to suc-
cess in sheep -breeding is the wander-
ing cur, and any remedy that will pro-
vide against depredations of worth-
less dogs is an advantage to sheep -
breeders. A Maine correspondent of
Rural Life says—There is nothing bet-
ter to protect sheep from dogs than an
old fashioned goat. Those animals
have no fear of a dog and will bunt
the life out of one in five minutes.
Dogs fear them and if they once try
conclusions never want the second ex-
perience. Let every farmer add one
goat to his flock and we shall hear no
more about sheep -killing by dogs.
