Several farmers have, however, placed their farms in our hands for sale, so.that we hope to be able to spply the bulk of the demand for farms as heretofore. But as our sales exceedtd 1900 acres last spring we would request those in want of a cheap farm to apply early, as the spring time will now soon be, here. We ean grant Very reasonable terms•of payment for all our sales and a low rate of in erest, . If you wish to renew or change you mort- gage, or put a new mortgage on your farm, or send money away in payment of the interest or principal of your mortgage, we can guaran- tee you satisfaction and at a very trifling expense. We lend money on farmers' notes fer long pr short time, and can supply all demands on reasonable terms, Sale rates a specialty.

Seeing that hay is $14 per ton and potatoes 25 cents per bus., would advise farmers to feed potatoes to their horses and cows. Hay is 70e per 100 lbs., potatoes at 25c per bushel are 83c. per 200 lbs. and horses and cattle thrive well on potatoes and straw, better than on hay alone, then w4 not • feed the potatoes. • Yours truly..

The deceased lady was longer than usual in coming down from her room, and her son on going up stairs found her dead on the floor.. She had apparently fallen while comb- ing her hair ancl was quite cold when the family found her. Apoplexy was the cause of her death. She ,was just 70 years of age. • Strange. to say, she had often expressed the opinion that she would like to die at the age. of 70. It would appear that fortune does not favor the Roman Oatholics of . Walkerton in the effort to organize a Separate School. After years -of agitation the steps necesstary to organize were taken and it was expected that the first rate for Separate' School pur- poses, would be levied this year. The first of March was the last day for the statutory notice of application to be rated as Separate School supporters. The notice was handed in on that day, but ,to the Mayor and not the clerk as requiled by law. This not being legal notice, theassessor is rating all as before .and no tax for a Separate School can be c.):lected, unlesssome change is made When appeal is made to ther'Oourt of• Revision.
