A Garden's Test.
The Brussels Post gives the follow-
ing, as the experience of a citizen*
"During the past , season Edward
Garvin, of Brussels, who is quite a
gardener, made an experimental test
of planting potatoes in hills on the
level, 14 feet square were given to
each plot, the seed was planted on
May 22nd and the potatoes lifted Sept.
16. Early Empire State was the
variety. The following is the result
which will be of 'interest :—On • the
level 05 set grew, yielding 70 lbs. and
24 lbs. were under 14 inches. In the
hill 68 sets grew, returning 68 lbs.
with 14 lbs. ander 14 inches. The
demonstration is in favor of the level
planting as 104 lbs. of rotten potatoes
were taken from the hilts and 5 lbs.
from the level cultivation. Mr. Gar-
vin attributes the decay to the water
being retained in the hills,

Millinery Opening.
On Tuesday evening, many of the
ladies of WWingheen and vicinity took
advantage of the fine weather to in-
spect the millinery displays. Mrs.
Green and Mrs. Aley held no formal
opening, Miss Boyd's display was a
centre of attraction. Iler choice
stock, tastefully arranged was mach
admired, and litany ot'ders are already
booked for fall millinery. Space will
not allow of Nether reference, but
Miss Boyd still invites the ladies to
call and see her stock.
To Institute For Blind..
Mrs. Macdonald of town, teok her
little boy to Brantford on Wednesday
to the School for the Blind, Sonie
time ago, the boy was struck in one
eye by something thrown by another
boy, and the sight of the eye was de-
stroyed. The other eye is also very
seriously affected and the sight almost
gone. Boys cannot be too careful,
even in their play. Life-long injury
may be inflicted by rough play or
thoughtless acts. This is a lesson all
teachers should impress and enforce
in the schools.
Opportunity Offered.
The International Correspondence
Schools presents an opportunity for
young people and others to become
proficient in almost any branch they
may choose, J. W. MoKay, of Strat-
ford, a representative of these Schools
is now in town, and has on exhibition
in the store formerly occupied by W.
J. Greer, samples of work done by
pupils. Among them we note some
furniture designs, drawn by Wm.
Pierson, formerly of Wingham, now
with J. A. Cline of Stratford. All
branches are taught, even the langu-
ages. These are taught by means of a
gramaphone.
Waited On Mayor.
A deputation representing the
Churches of town waited upon Mayor
Vanstone on Monday with regard to
the show annoitncecl for Tuesday
night. Rev. Dr. Gundy was the
spokesman for the deputation and
held that the advertisements of the
show upon the bill -boards were in-
decent, and that under the Statutes
of the province, es well as By-laws of
the town, the show should be pro-
hibited; The Mayor did not see his
way clear legally to stop the show,
but promised to send a Constable to
the entertainment, and if there were
any indecent performances to prevent
anything further in that line.
Buggy Down Stream.
Last Saturday's deluge of rain raised
the Maitland considerably. On Suh-
day, George Coulter, in crossing the
river at Zetland, had quite an experi-
ence. As the bridge there is not in
use, it is necessary,to drive through
the river. When in the deep water,
the whifiletree broke, and the horse
struggled free from the vehicle, which
floated clown stream, The occupant
of the buggy, seeing no other way of
escape, grasped the horse's tail and
was pulled safe to shore. The current
was very strong and Mr. Coulter had a
narrow escape. The buggy was found
three-quarters of a mile down stream.
Another man escaped by standing on
the dashboard of ht`s buggy and hold-
ing on by the top of the vehicle. The
completion of the bridge will be a
boon to the public. Mr. Barber has
made good time with the cement work
so far, but was delayed this week by
the high water.
Extensive Stock Sale.
.A. large stock sale is announced to
take place an lot 14, con. 4, TurnberrY,

Heavy Rainstorm..
On Saturday last, some parts of
Ontario were drenched with a tre-
mendous down pour of rein. In Toron-
to the rainfall is estimated at nearly
two inches. According to the Toron-
to World's estimate considerably over
two million tons of water fell on the
seventeen square miles comprised in
the city limits. Near Lucknow, we
are informed that the rainfall measur-
ed 25 inches. As one inch rainfall
means 100 tons to the acre, 25 inches
indicates that 250 tons of water fell on
tut acre of ground in this part of
Huron county.

No Intoxication Allowed.
The public generally will approve of
the act of the C. P. R. in taking a
drunken engineer oft his engine. A
lean named Crowell, running on the
Regina division of the 0. P. R. was
intoxicated while in charge of his en-
gine. Had he been allowed to go out
in that state, an accident with loss of
life might have resulted. Crowell was
taken off his engine/and sentenced to
two years in the penitentiary. Rail-
ways have no choice ; as a matter of
safety to the public, and regard for
their own interests, they are obliged
to discountenance the drink habit.
Bountiful Harvest Recognized.
The Harvest Thanksgiving services,
held last Sunday in St. Paul's church
were successful. The congregations
were large ; in the evening, chairs had
to be placed in the aisle to accom
modate the people. The church was
beautifully decorated with grain, fruit
and flowers, arranged most tastefully.
The singing by the choir was excep-
tionally good. Rev. Mr. Fitzmorris
favored the congregation with a solo
in the morning, and Mr. F. Hill sang
one in the evening. Mr. Fitzmorris
preached morning and evening on the
subject of thanksgiving. The Rector
asked the congregation for a thank
offering of $100, and they responded
by placing $124.48 upon the plates;
this was the largest Harvest collec-
tions since Mr. Lowe's appointment to
the parish. The total collections for
the day were $155.00,
Annual Reunion.
The animal reunion of St, Paul's
congregation under the auspices of
the A. Y. P: A., was held on Monday
evening, at which there was a large
attendance. The Rector in his open-
ing remarks referred to the liberality
of the congregation, the kindly rela-
tions of the members to each other,
and the friendly spirit manifested
to, and by the sister churches. Be
hoped these pleasing conditions would
continue. After referring to the
abundant harvest, Rev. Wm. Lowe
then fnteodueed the program, which
comprised .addresses by Rev. Dr.
Smith of Teeswater, Rev, I!itztnaris
of Glencoe, and Postmaster Fisher,
interspersed with local 'and insttn-
metital selections by the young,:
people. The tables were then the
centre of attraction, and for a long

ingly busy' serving the refreshment

remarked that' the object of the gath-
ering was not to make money, but to

joyment, which object was fully ac-
complished itt the pleasant and sue -

Wesley Allenby Dead.
Man? indeed and sincere, were the
expressions of sorrow, w»en on Tues-
day morning the word was quickly
passed throttgh our town, that Wesley
D. Allenby had passed away. He had
been ill for the previous two weeks
with an attack of fever, and was ap-
parently doing as well as could be ex-
pected. On Sunday night hemorr-
hages set in, and 011 Monday night he
passed away. Deceased was one of
Wfngham's finest young men, up-
right, conscientious and industrious,
popular with his fellow -workmen and
esteemed by all who knew him. He
had been for several years a member
of the Methodist Chnroh, and was an
active efficer of the Epworth League,
being Missionary Vice -President. His
kindness to his aged parents (one of
whom died about three years ago) has
beers remarked by his fellow -towns-
men. What makes the case more sad,
is that Mrs. Allenby is very ill at the
present time, and the bereavement is
a sore trial for her, as well as for the
aged mother of deceased. The funeral
took place on Wednesday, the A. 0.P.
and C. O. P. paying their last tributes
of esteem to the deceased. An int-
pressive serviee wass conducted by
Rev. Dr. Gandy on the lawn. The
procession was a very solemn ode,
headed by the Citizens' B.u+d playing
the plead March. Deceased was in his
81st year. Among the floral evidenees
of esteem were wreaths from the Ip.
worth League, the Missionary eom-
ittittee, the A. O. P., the Footbtall Club,
and a beautiful emblem, "Gates Ajar"
from the employees of the Can, Fur.
Mfrs., hell factory, yvhere the deceased
had been for 14 years a faithful work.

to allow the ernitloyces to attend the
funeral. Sincere sympathy is felt for

Harvest Thanksgiving.
Last Sunday was an important day
in Wingltam Methodist Church, both
with the congregation and Sunday
School. L. connection with the
Harvest Thanksgiving services, the
Trustees made an appeal in aid of the
Building fund, and the amount re-
ceived for payment on the mortgage,
October Sth, will reduce the indebted-
ness on the church to $1,900 ; this in
so short a time since the erection of
the church is a remarkable showing.
The pastor's subject in the morning
was "God's Wagons". In the even-
ing Rev. D. Pevrie spoke oti—"The
Harvest—a witness to the Divine
Being", and showed that the harvest
was a witness ; 1st—To the existence
of Gad. 2nd—To His Goodness. 3rd
—To His Providence, which extends
to the minute details of life. Mr.
Perrie's sermon was appreciated by
the congregation. For both morning
and evening services, the Choir, *under
the painstaking leadership of J. A.
Morton, furnished a special and ex-
cellent, as well is appropriate pro-
gram of music, which was an enjoy-
able feature of the day. The printed
programs, prepared by Mr. Morton
were a pleasing departure froin the
usual routine, and many of these have
been sent by the members to friends
at a distance as souvenirs,
