Harvest Excursions
Harvest excursions to Manitoba. it
is expected, will begiu in the course of
two or three weeks. It was intimated
some two weeks ago that owing to the
great immigration to the West this
year, that there would be no excursions
this year, but it now appears that a
goodly number of bands will be required
to harvest the corn this year.

Italian Immigration
In the whole decade ending in 1880
only 120,000 Italians left the peninsula;
but in 1902 alone over 000.000 of them
abandoned the ancient land of their
ancestors. The increase has been steady
for 20 years, passing the half -million
mark in 1901. No check to the move-
ment is as yet perceptible, and the ques-
tion whether the annual emigration will
reach the million mark is already worth
attention. In spite or this loss of in-
habitants, Italy's total population in-
creases, for the masses are not giveu at
all to "race suicide." It should be not-
ed that out of the 600,000 emigrants last
year 252,000 came to United States. The
rest of the world, it appears, is nffeo ted
as well as America by the exodus.
CURIOUS FACTS
The average cost of a British soldier
is about $320 a year. Tho Swiss soldier
costs about $70 a year.
In Sculcoates workhouse, Hall, Eng-
land, there are sixteen inmates whose
united ages amount to 1,218 years.
The human jaw is very loosely sock-
eted in the skull, so that it is often dis-
located by the mere act of yawning.
When the last fragments of the ruined
campanile in Venice were removed,
thirty bottles of wine were found un-
broken in the custodian's room.
Probably the biggest machinery belt
over made is one recently made for a
copper mine power house at Anaconda,
Mont. It is 66 inches wide and 180 feet
long, weighs 3,600 lbs., took 360 hides to
make it and cost nearly $8,000.
Since public health became a• science,
at the beginning of the ,late Queen's
reign, the average life of a man in Eng-
land has boon increased by three years,
and that of a women by five years. To-
day there are more than 600,000 persons
living in Great Britain who, had they
been born before the science of public
health was known, would have died be-
fore they were a year old.

Mr. Leo Morris, a Now York business

In the States, are justly indignant at the

In 18S2, according to United:States im-
migration returns, 98,295 °Canadians
settled in the United States, In the
year ending June 30th last, according to
the same returns, only 1,058 Canadians

i,1ve Stook 11Iarkets.
Toronto, July 28. -There was a very
moderate day at the cattle market to -day
the run of 43 loads cousisting of 637 head
of cattle, 436 sheep, 321 hogs and 25
calves. The whole of the stook was sold
and the only preceptible effect of the
removal of Levack to the Junction was
the quickening of the market. The prices
were almost the same as on Friday, the
only striking advance being that in hogs
which took a jump from $5.85 to $6.25.
The sheep market was steady, with a
fair demand and a good run.
Good butchers' cattle were in good de-
mand aed at fairly good prices, from
$4.25 to $1.60. Oa account of the Juno -
tion yards there seemed a great disposi-
tion to buy this morning at fair prices,
although there was very little advance
and most of the sales- for export were
around $4.85 to $5.

Sam!. Beattie Makes a Record.
The Wiarton Canadian had the fol-
lowing reference to Mr. Saml. Beattie, a
brother of Messrs. Beattie Bros., of this
town :-"Mr, Sand. Beattie, the proprie-
tor of the Pacific hotel, during the hot
spell recently stated that he had a no-
tion to 'take a walk to Lions Head.' Do
you knots Sam? He is a big little fat
man, hardly six fent in his stockings and
did weigh close to three hundred pound's.
About two hundred will catch him now.
He took the walk. Toni Hurst heard
him make the remark as above and at
once offered a liberal bet that lie couldn't
Ido it. Sam. quickly covered the stake
and started out to cover the toad, on
Wednesday at noon with the thermome-
ter at 90. Lion's Head is twenty-two
long miles from Wiarton but Mr. Sam.
