Judge Bar- rett of Walkerton sentenced her to residence in St. Mary's Industrial School, Toronto, for an indefinite period. —Norfolk and Tilsonburg Tele- phone Association was formed re- cently, and the first steps wore taken towards organizing a co-operative as- sociation to build a telephone line from Tilsonburg to the fair grounds in Houghton Township, passing through the village of Mabee, Glen Meyer, and Frogmore. —Tine largest pin factory in the world is at Birmingham, Eng., says the Springfield Republican, and 37,- 000,000 pins are made there every working day of the year. There are so many pins made that every per- son in the world must lose a pin once in four clays in order to keep the sup- ply up to the demand. Anyone who has picked up pins in his wife's room will easily understand how the de- mand is created. Clinton. Fifteen crates of poultry were ship- ped one day last week. The Thresher ('o. Bay -law was car- ried by a vote of 38i to 10. A new smoke -stack will be erected at the Electric bight works ; it will be of iron, 70 feet high, and will cost $1500, Mrs, Chris, Anderson, of Wingham, who has been in the hospital here for several weeks was able to return home on Tuesday. Mrs. Anderson underwent an operation and is still very weak. We are sorry to record the death of Miss E. Challenger, which occurred at the home of her brother, Amos Chal- lenger. She had been suffering for • some time from cancer. Of the thirty-three teachers -in- - training at tbo Model school, only a few have yet secured situations though the season is getting along. - The majority of them will likely have to go outside the county, On Saturday night last Mrs. Geo. Sage passed from time into eternity after an illness of seven weeks borne with Christian fortitude and resigna- tion. She had long been a resident of this town and by a wide circle of friends very much esteemed. The other day as a couple of busi- ness men who had been out beyond Holmesville shooting, were driving home, they tnrned around in the bug- gy to admire. a girl who was fishing, without paying too much attention to their driving. A sudden jerk of the lines cramped the buggy, throwing both occupants out and the horse fall- ing on its back in the water. —The Galt Reporter says that one motor car on the Galt and Waterloo electric line recently hauled fourteen loaded cars, five of them carrying live stock, from Waterloo to Galt. Bas- ing its experience on what it has observed in Galt, the Reporter says electric lines could easily handle all the freight Stratford produces. SVe may he nearer the general introduc- tion of electric power on the trunk lines than people imagine. Not often does lightning do serious damage in October. The Kincardine Review, however, reports the follow- ing :—A. disastrous fire occurred on Friday morning on the 'McDuff farm north of Kincardine. Their barn was struck by lightning and it and its con- tents, including seven horses, were destroyed, There was only $300 in- surance on the place and the loss will be fully $2,500. Much sympathy is felt for the McDuff brothers who are hard-working, industrious young men and who were getting things in good shape when the discouraging set back occurred. - -After three years in the courts, Mrs. Hockley, whose husband was killed at a railway crossing near Stonffville, has again secured a ver- dict of $3,000 damages for herself and $1,000 for her child. This case has been once in the Supreme Court and twice in the Court of Appeal. Twenty judges have heard arguments concerning it, and in every court the widow has won. It is not yet known whether the railway will appeal to the Privy Council, but that it will do so is altogether likely. Railway com- panies have one rule to go by when they are beaten in a suit, they simply proceed to appeal to a higher court, in the hope that the plaintiff will either get tired or run out of money, and so give it up. In the ease before us the plaintiff seems to have been unusually tenacious, but even if the company were to pay up now, she would not be much ahead, after sho deduets ex- penses. It would almost seem that a special court ought to be created for trying cases against railway com- panies, a court whose judgment would be final, and the procedure inexpen- sive. No Poison In Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.

Its Fldrther Development Will likely Come From Europe, To Europe the farmers of the world May Some day be indebted for the evo- lution of an electric plow. 'fire Italian electrloal society has evolved an elec- trio plow which appy rontly Is gluing asuman, and herewith furnishese this journal a deocription of the machine. Of comae until recowly the matter ham been in the experimental stage, and on that account It was not amaured that the plow can be produced at a cost within the reach of the average farmer. However, from claims of the rapidity and enormous quantity of work turned off by the electrical im- Oen}ent, it is evident that some of our larger farms alight invest in such a machine, even at automobile prices. As is Well known to all farmers, the steam plow has proved a trifle heavy, and in districts where coal is not cheap, is costly. The Italian inventors believe they have solved the question of power and clumsiness by their ma- chine. Their system consists In two winches mounted on trucks, ono being at each aide of the field to be plowed. One of those winches and the plow itself is portrayed in the accompany- ing illustration. Tho plow used is of a type similiar to that employed in steam tilling. It is double balancing, and is carried in each direction from the winches by means of a steel rope or cable. Each of the winches is equip- ped with an induction motor, the. pow- er of which can be made to vary with the nature of the ground. A 20-horso power motor is used, with a speed of 55 yards per minute, and furrows are made to a depth of 10 inches. Using the same motor the speed can be re- duced and the depth of the furrow materially increased. Every winch is equipped with interchangeable gears, so that it is possible to run a plow at a varying rate of speed to suit the nature of the ground and the erop. Automatic devices break the current when the plow is at the end of tho run. At the same moment the opposite drum begins to work, carrying the plow back again. The trucks are equip- ped with steel wheels, and a small switch- board carrying all controlling apparatus necessary. It is claimed the steel plow is easy to handle, and can run through a field with a furrow 360 yards long in eight minutes. If it were possible to work without interruption at this speed and plow three furrows at a time, it would take only four TSH ELECTRIC PLOW AS OPERATED ITALIA& FIELn. hours to plow 21/2 acres of land. Tho average speed at which the machine can be run is about eight times as fast as animal traction, with greater depth to the furrow. The same truck can be used for other farm machinery, as saw, har- rows, etc. During the winter it is claimed the trucks will come in very useful for miscellaneous work about the farm. They are reported to be available forr threshing and pumping. In Germany, where considerable at- tention is given electrical devices on the farm, the evolution of an electric plow is reported to be meeting with some success. Louis J. Magee, who has long followed this lino of develop- ment in Germany closely, in a recent magazine article gives a full account of experimental work there. The Ger- man plow is constructed somewhat along the same general lines as the Italian, both being modeled after the English Fowler steam plow. The German type calls for a 30 to 35 -horse power motor. With the im- proved machine, furrows 1,500 feet long and 14 inches deep have been made. Working a three -share plow, about nine acres of land can be gone over thoroughly in a day. The cost of electricity ranged from 60 to 90 cents per acre. The estimated outlay for equipment of the German electric plow plant is $3,000. IN AN Dishorning Calves. The easiest and simplest way to re- move horns is to use caustic potash on the young calf just as the embryo horns are appearing. One can get the potash sticks at any drug store. The little tender button should be wet and a little potash rubbed on the moisten- ed surface of the horn points until sufficient caustic has been transferred to the moisture. It may be necessary to give more than one application, but the calf will not mind.—Professor C. S. Plumb in Rural New Yorker. Hog Notes. Hunger is the direct cause of many of the annoying practices and habits that young pigs fall into. Mature sires and dams are best and safest to breed from. A breeding sow should have plenty of nourishing food, such food as will cause a healthy growth without induc- ing the laying on of surplus fat, as a fat sow usually has difficulty in deliv- ering: Caked Udders. After all has been said concerning treatment of caked or inflamed udders I doubt if any single application will be more effective than gentle rubbing and working with the hands, not for a few minutes, but for a half hour at a time, writes H. E. Cook in National Stockman. Turpentine and lard, hot water, vaseline—all are good. But just test the effectiveness of each with and without manipulation. Sheep Husbandry. Sheep are the only animals that do not exhaust the land upon which they feed, but permanently improve it. The only way to keep a flock up to a high standard, to keep the standard raising higher all the time, is to cull and cull. Hogs Need Lots of Water. Be sure that there is plenty of water in the pasture. The pigs suffer if not given plentysot water on hot days. t--- Isard's The Leading Store (isard's More Room -- More Stook MORE BUSINESS We're Reaching Out After More Business We want your trade, and will have at least a share " of it, if LARGE STOCK, Goon VALUES and RIGHT PRICES go for anything.

Public meetings to discuss the question will be arranged as soon as the Councils deal with the petitions. en's eadaches" Late hours and anxious pursuits, with immoderate eating, weakness, nervousness, and overwork or worry, is responsible for the alarming increase of headache. Women are more subject to this ailment than men. Their delicate con- stitution and nervous temperament induces a condition of the system that sooner or later brings on the periodical attacks of headache. " PSYCHINE " is the remedy of all others for the complete cure of headache. It builds up the nervous system— restores vitality, cleanses the stomach from all bile, settles the nerves, starts the blood into the proper channels, and in most cases the attacks can be warded off by careful attention in following directions. Don't destroy the system by frequent use of dangerous powders, that give only temporary relief. Begin the " PSYCHINE " treatment now, and fortify the system against attacks. This is the only way to permanently dispose of periodical headaches. GREATEST OF ALL TONICS i (PRONOUNCED SI�KEEN) AU.
