EVANS, Manager's 11.1, i i 411.f fiihiii. al d I ti. wiuNil r NO bushels to the acre and sixty-one and a half pounds to the bushel. The variety is the Abundance and it has been true to the name. Mr. D. B. Calbick, a former business man of Clinton, and a native of Holmesville, had the good fortune to make a very profitable deal recently. A few years ago he bought a fruit farm at Winona, a short distance from Hamilton, paying $10,000 therefor. After making more than a good living off it he sold it a few days since at an advance of 100 per cent, and. could have realized even more than this from another party, had he not al- ready closed the deal. Though there are ninety-four in- mates in the House of Refuge, many of them at an extreme old age, there have been only three deaths in the past eight months. One interpreta- tion of this is that they receive the very best of care from Manager Mutch and his good wife, who give a personal attention to the unfortunates com- mitted to their keeping that is not any too frequently met with. The grounds are now looking their best, the flower -clad walks presenting a very pretty appearance. The farm is going to give a big yield this season. Of onions there will be ten or twelve tons and as the price is four cents a pound this will mean that a goodly sum will be realized, A. representa- tive of one of the big seed houses who looked over the plot the other day re- marked that he bad never seen such an abundant yield. The labor on this department of the farm has been done almost entirely by the inmates, under the close supervision of Mr. Mutch, Morris. Another of the pioneers of this section in the person of John Elston, passed away at his home on the 2nd line of Morris on Tuesday even- ing, Sept. 10. Deceased had not been in robust health for some time. He •WAs born in Lincolnshire, England, and came to Canada in 1850. In 1853 be purchased the homestead on the 2nd line of Morris and moved up to this country in 1860. Mr. Elston was .a good neighbor and he made a large circle of friends during his long resi- dence in Morris. He had always taken an active interest in the Wingham Fall Fair and had for many ' years been a director of the Society and at the time of his death was Honorary President. In religion he was a Methodist, and in politics a Liberal, Ilia wife died in 1877 and three child- ren died some years ago. Re is sur- vived by four sons and four daughters, viz :—.John Elston, Prince Albert, Sask ; Mrs. hiubbard, Wayne, Mich. ; Mrs. McKague, Coulter, Man, ; Roht. Elston, West Holm, North Dakota; Jas. Elston, Austin, Man. ; Wm. Elston and Misses Annie and Nellie, at home. The funeral took place on Thursday to Bluevale cemetery. HOWiCks The builders a are at work on Mr. I.

The lady now bears the name of Mrs. Stevens, and resides in Quebec. The only rule held by Miss Rose in the way of salting butter, was opposed by Mrs. Salkeld, n almely "putting salt in the butter- milk', Mrs. Salkeld always working the salt into the butter, after it is taken from the churn. One thing very. noticeable in the bulletin, was the advice to milkmaids to rub vase line on their hands while milking instead of the old plan of using milk. Mrs. Gavin Green brought a little gem of onion and cucumber pickles for the members to taste, and also gave them the recipe. Mrs. Beattie daughter of Mrs. Cox, demonstrated the making of tea -biscuits, for which she used sweet nr,iik diluted with water, adding butter and baking powder. They were baked in a gaso- line oven and were a delicious treat for the members' 5 o'.;lock tea. "How to keep Cool ?" and how to make corn cake and Johnnie cake were two questions placed in the Question Box. ".Flow to take out mildew?" was another, answered by Airs. John S. Bedford. Put the article in butter- milk and after soaking it for. a while, leave wet in the sun to dry. Then do the same the ..2nd time. 'after which the article can be thoroughly rinsed in cold water and hung out to dry. Mrs. Howe of Clinton was in attendance. Miss Skimings was able to attend and played the opening and closing hymns.

The bride was prettily gowned in a dress of cream messaline silk and carried a shower baguet of white roses and ferns. After the wedding supper and the usual toasts a very pleasant evening was spent in games and music. During the signing of the register, Miss Jessie Strachan sang very sweetly, "The Voice that breath- ed o'er Eden." Friends were present from Brussels, Wawanosh, Southern - ton, Wroxeter and other points. The gifts were numerous, beautiful and useful, Among them were several cheques, The groom's gift to the bride was a set of Western sable furs ; to Mrs. R. Wheeler and Miss J.
