farms to orchard, with the idea of in.
creasing the value of the property,and
reaping the profit, The scheme, how.
ever, is all on paper as yet, The com-
pany will operate both in Canada and
the United States.
The death took place Friday of an
old Goderich resident in the person of
James Watson, who for a great many
years was in the baking business in
Goderich. Mr. Watson was spier 90

Miss Kate, Miss Madge and Miss Tive
and Charles (New York) and George

on Sunday from the family residence,
Montreal street,.which, by the way, is
one of the old landmarks of Goderich.
The town of Goderich is making an
agitation for the erection of an armory
here, and at the meeting of the town
council a resolution was passed grant-
ing a site at Victoria Park to the Gov-
ernment for the purpose if the Govern-
went can be induced to erect a build-
ing. The mayor is going to Ottawa
in a few days to interview the Clover ns
moot on other matters,, and white
there will endeavor to forward the
proposal for the erection' of an armory
here. The park seems an ideal location
for the purpose, as there is ample room
for a good parade ground. Another
matter which the mayor will press up-
on the Government is the . straighter..
ing out of the face of the Government
dock at the harbor, this being a fea-
ture of the proposed plans for the im-
provement of Goderich Harbor. At
lresent the curve in the dock prevents
ong boats lying up close to the dock
near the elevator of the Western Can-
ada
Flour Mill Company.
