R. 1, Petrone, advises us of the fact that she has a goose now laying, which is eonsidered a very rare thing, Mrs, Dempsey raised geese for many years and never before had one lay in the fall of the year. She tells us to put this one along with the raspberries and mushrooms. Perhaps that goose is not so silly after all. With a goose laying, it post- poned her big changes of gracing the table at Thanksgiving time. Now, if she can only keep that up until after Christmas she may get a reprieve for to continue her usefulness next spring. when all good geese are expected to do their duty in the way of reproduct- ion.—Alvinston Free Press. IT WAS ONLY A FOX NO BOUNTY AFTER ALL Ernest Greer of Glamis thought he had made $45 Sunday night when he ran down a large animal on the road to inverhuron Beach. However, he was disappointed to discover, when getting out of his car that it was only a fox. His lights picked it up in the centre Of the road but it could not dodge his speeding car. Another Glamis man, Earl Ferris, ran down a wolf in the Greenock swamp last week and be- lieves he will collect $45 bounty.--Wal- kerton Herald-Times.
