Tile Late John Gentles.
Native wit combined with unceasing
industry., and astutenose and ability
of nu mean order combated to make
.1 ohn Gentles t he s. cored or third
wealthiest citizen in Bruce county.
Ile had no adventitious aids in trans-
forming him from stable by in
Embro to the owner of vast poeses-
hems and to be accounted the shrewd-
est man of businees in the district.
Ile had no education beyond what he
pickod up himself in his pas-
sage through the world, yet he could
di'seourse in on the ques-
tions of the day and knew the day's
ecards of events all over -the world
better than home who had the advan-
tage 01 a liberal education. He sel-
dom made an error in grammar and
there was a vigoe and a terseness in
his language that compelled attens
Hon. But it was as a dealer that he
made his name and built his fortune.
Ile had a shvewd insight into human
nature and made a close study of the
men with whom he had to deal. He
could play with unerring skill upon
their fancies or their prejudices, their
virtues or their foibles. Ile was re-
sourcetua and persistent, and he sel-
dom made a mistake in "sizing up a
man" or in estimating the value of a
horse or a piece of propenty. He VMS
quick in judgment and insistent in ex-
acting "specific performance." He
had a keen scent for bargains and
was in tench with every one in this,
district, so much ao he :armed to
read men's inmost thoughts, A far-
mer could not think of selling his
farm and going west without Mr.
Gentles learning of it and he was
there at once to close up the tran-
saction. Ile had the reputation of
being 0 man ef his word and . all
knew _that the business would be a
cash 'transaction so far as he was
eoncerned and that it would be clos-
ed tsp expeditiously, for whatever he
d id he did well. So thoroeghly had
itt t he confidence of the farmers 1 hat
he was the go-between in all their
mport an t «immerciel t ransa,ct lens
and some times, too, he settled their
.
legal difficulties for th(tm - not ••th
oto cost it is true, but in the end it
was cheaper for them than the tedi-
ious and vexatious process of the .
court s. R rown had a horse In want-
ed l 8111; he knew that his next
door neighbor Jones wan ted to buy f
it ; he (lid not go to Jones ; he went f
to G
Mr. Int les. The chances are that
Jones had be en to him a:Scing to buy f
Brown's horse for 111111 ; Jr. aGentles:
made a deal a•nd ee:acted hie cements-
sion. When he went into the inAl ea -
tate businees the same process
brought him in returns in the same
way hut, of eourse, in larger pre -
portions. Brown wanted to go west;
he knew his mfghbor „Itnes wanted
to buy his farm. Jones knew Brown
wanted to sell his farm. Ilut they
did not meat to talk it over aad
Giar
rive at a coneluaion. No es' eaeh
went to John Gentles at :different
times. He bought and void, anti of-
ten without the use of any of his
own- money he made two .1 three, Lour
or five hundred dollars in tlie trans-
fer of the farm. Ile was "businesa"
front the ground up.; every thing he
- undertook he carried ottt ; he :made
bia profit out of the deal And when
13rown was ready to go west Mr.
Gentles helped him, load his car and
was there at the depot to see him off
with an offer to stake hint if be nettl-
ed more money. •
In the rough and tumble. scramble
for wealth he played the gaine in the
David liarum style. With his con-
temporaries - he wished to- win and he
usually did. But he was ever con-
siderate- of. the weak and the aged
and he would spend a lot of :time and
go to aelot of trouble to help a poor
unfortunate- who had got the worst of
it in the battle of life.
He was exceedingly' good to child-
ren of whom he was fond. Only the
day befove he was stricken; the writer.
saw hut stow away a little boy un-
der hie buggy seat to give him .
ride and when the seat beside him'
was vacant halted the little .lad
transferred. and he drove away with
his little charge. He. made -them eall
him "Jack" and refer: to- him as their
"pal." Driving out in the eountry be
would' I '• up his buggy with chile
dren. Everybody .knew him and • he
knew them.. Net only that hut he
knew every hotse on their farm and

He Died in 13Cis Prime
Death came last week to one of the
neer sacceesful bueiness men Of Tor-
onto. It canes at a time that, for one
with so megn Wean t a constit ut ion ,
should have been the prime of life.
The untimely ending was undoubtedly
hastened by too close appSication• to
business. Tins long hours spent in ea
office in the midst of the city's most
crowded center did not mark thy limit
of the day's work ; 'before coming
down in Ow morning and after return
home at night an active mind was al-
ways ele aling with the problems pre -
s, nted by a great industrial enterprise

This is a Short Year.
In Ontario, save in a few isolated
casee win re loyal storms have caused
heavy damage, t•he year's returns: from
the farm, promiee to be up to if not
beyond •the average.
In parts of North America the sit-
uation is yery different. In most of
Manitoba, and in large portions of
Saskatchewan and Alberta the situa-
tion ranges from partial to total fail-
ure. in the North Western States.
canditiens 'are quite as bad. There
the facts are plainly recognized and
hanks are already arranging to car-
ry their customers over for , another
year and wholesale anti retail mer-
chants are providing • for reasonable
extensions of credit. The facts in
regard to our west will also .have
to be reeogniz«I soener or later.
Theta, as well as in the North West-
ern States, there will of .neeessita have
to be a shortening up in new pur-
ehases and an extension of time in
paying for those already made. The
effect:, will not be confined to the
territories directly affected. The in-
eaence will extend over a much wid-
er area. in Canada, however, the in-
jury will be Mueli less serious than in
the United States because the year's
losses with us will he so largely . off -
:vet by tile inflows ,of neW capital. and
additioeal population, due :to the tithe
of immigration that has set n1. our
way. Still.there te bound to be.sonie
little shortening up in .general activ-
ity 111 Ontario cities as.. a result of .
the lessening in the purchasing power
of the wost, and this in turn • .will
have an effect on -the locat, &Mend'
for Ontario 'food stuffs; • • •
. .
The most immediate and preasing
lesson that • is borne .in• be the • ex-
isting •sitaatiot is the need of making
every poesible pound Worn fodder,
of seeing the last pound of hay 'and
of making:most of the' grain and loot
crops. There is an actual famine of
hay in all the -Western part of 'North
America ; this crop is,indeed, short
all over the •United States, and the
Canadian West is not likely this ytar
to have cheap oats and bailey for sale
to Ontario' feeders, The (Warfel:arm-
er witlj. coarse fodder this yeae stands
to do well ; the one who is short 011

Toronto Cattle Dealers Are
Tired.
Toronto tat -tie dealers have grown
weary of buying animalsthat have
been gorged by the drovers with meal
or grain before being offered for sale
.at the Western Cattle Market or the
Union Stock 'Vards,
Oceasionally - it is found that cattle
NO overfed are found dead in their
pens after a het night, and nearly al-
ways it is the .calts that the. gorged
animals are unfit to kill.
Therefore sieteen representative,
dealers have issued a (Omuta): letter
to the drovers, notifying them that
after Monday of thisweek they will
buy ea :dictate lambs, er calves that
leave been fed with meal or grain af-
ter their arrival here. For some time
past they have' refused to buy cattle
so :fed.
The circular says, in part
'That the practice of feeding gvain
ok mea to Seeep, lambs and calves
after arrival on the markets has tee
(some a salons detriment to trade.
"That the praetice as now carried
on is n. wrious disadvantage both to
the seller and buyer of live stock; •
"That it tis in the interest of ail
concerned.. that the .practiee should
cease, and in order to. make tide pos.
sible, the undersigned buytea diereby
give notice that on and after August
15, 1910, they will refuse 10 buy any
sheep, iambs, and calves that, after
arrival on market, have been given,
Iany other food than hay and: water."
, "There is no doubt that tide will
have the desired effect," said a Leattle
buyer to 'rite Star to -day. "When they
ilnd that We won't buy their meal or
grain -fed animals they'll take to feed-
ing them hay and water after . • their
arrival at the steak yards,
"Their sole reason for stuffing the
cattle with meal or grainisto lake
them weigh mere, and that, of eouree
means. a bigger peke. But it's not the
dollars we are caring about. ICS tile
condition of the cattle we buy, It is
no uncommon thing to go out in the
morning and find that two or three of
those .overfed cattle baits' died in. one
pen. :flailing a hot night. Too patch
meal or grain overheats the annuals,
and even if they don't die they are
not fit to kill. ,Atter theses are sIaugh-

Starting a Balky Horse.
A remedy width Will start a
balky horse ninety-nine times out of a
hundred is as .10.ows : When a -horse
balks—no 'matter how badly lie balks.
or bow ugly he LS—donot beet him ;
don't .throw sand in his ears ; don't
usts a tope on itie forelegs Or even
burn straw • under 11110. Quietly go
and pat 'WM on the head a• moment;
take a hammer or even pick up a
stone in the road ; telt ehts driver to
sit take hia lines, hold theft
quietly, while you lift up either front

on about hie .bueinease but the driver
must keephis lines taut arid not pull
or jerk h1111 back. : This neay make
some horsemen tintile, but a hones has
more common seems .than most people
are willing to give Ifni caedit foe.
The _secret of this, little trick. is shit -
ply diveraion. With kindness and
proper theatment a horse •can be driv-
en with a string.
-Another • method is as fellows :
Take a small rope and firmly attach
it to the hase's tail. Take a turn
on the doubletree or cross bar, giving
slack enough to tighten the traces. If
the horse refuses to pull, •tighten this
vepe until the draft 'comes on the
tail. No horse ever tau:ice to pullhy
his tail. When the horse starts the
tail -hold may be. relaxed until the
draft 1011115on' the trews • again.
Many balking horses' will aquae to
I start, and others will start Oft ell.

vivo is to pull on the tail rope until.
the dealt comes partly op the tall.
