We notice that the windows of many of tor merchants are so enameled with frost 'hat it is almost impossible for goods to be tisplayed with any degree of profit or aa- santage. If those who slid it difficult by keeping the inside windows closed, to pre- vent the frost from gathering on the out- side panes, rub them once or twice a week with a rag dipped in glycerine. This will positively result satisfactorily, and is the only way in which the frost can he prevent- ed from gathering on show windows. School Trustees and the Ballot. The law gives the boards of school trus- tees the op ion of holding the election for trustees on the same day as municipal elec- tions and to vote lsy ballot. The boards which last year took advantage of . the change in the law speak strongly in its favor. Toronto has succeeded under the: new system, in Creating an interest in edu- cational matters which has not heen illunted from the rate -payers for years. We think Exeter would be acting in the interests of educationby adopting ths new method. It. is the only way that we know of to keep revived that warm- interest m our schools which in this year's election distinguished Exeter. 'Personal. Mr. Wm. Wilkins, of Sarnia, formerly of Exeter, spent a few days in town this week. -Miss McIntyre, 14 Goderich. who has been visiting Mrs. John Ross, during; the past two weeks, left for home yester- day. It was her desire to have gone it week ago, but was detained in consequence .of the snow blockade ; several others were in the same predicament. -Mr. It. Sanders, has returned from the old country, after an absence of several months ; we helieve he has not returned to Exeter as he left it, a single man, but is to be numbered with the benediets.--E. Sidney Smith, of St Marys, was in town last week.- -N. Dyer Hurdon has purchased a horse for twenty-five cents; we believe he will use it for tugging his toboggan to the top of the slide. N. D. IL is partial to anything that will save labor. Miss Carrie Templeton, of Exeter, joined hands in -matrimony with Mr. A. MI Petee- son, of Beaudoin, at the latter place, on Wednesday lest. -Mr. John Elliot left last week for Toronto, where he will go into the office of E..Blake,. and pursue his studies in the law profession. John is an apt stu- dent, and. we may expect something notable of him. -- To Our Country Readers. ..As one of the most attractive features of local.paper is its local news, we always smdavor to devote as much space as possible to items of interest which transpire in the country. In this respect our readers Can render great aid. If each one would kindly take notes of oecurrences, such as accidents, deaths, runaways and other matters of like hate/ est, which from time to time transpire in their neighborhoods and forward them to us, it would be of great aid in rendering the TIMES even more interesting: than it is now. It is not necessary that the diction be perfect. Let the correspondent tell his story in his own way, just as if he were speaking it. All we, want are the facts, and we can put them in shapefor publica- tion. Let nonelang back through dread that they cannot write correctly. Any per- son slim can write can furnish - local 'items. Enclose the item in an unsealed .envelope, and only a one cent: Stamp is required for postage. We will cheerfully furnish :to all who will apply fortnem, envelopes,' and stamps. We have already a latge corps of, correspondents of this kind who do , good service, hut we waist more ; and We trust that this rsmiuder will have the effect -of largely increaSing the list Correspondence such as we 'have indicated is of great service. to us, while .the correcting and preparation .of it will prove a pleasure tusd 'a benefit" to the sender. •S.4 11 Ag'1, sues,. lilse annual meeting of the 'Stephen tun' 'Osborne Agricultural Soe'y. was held in Exe er on Thursday last.

Owing to the blockade on all roads we were unable to secure the usual amount of district news. Several horke buyers from across the line have been in Exeter for some days ; they purehased four or five entire horses from dealers in this neighborhood, Mr. Thos. Evans, of Blesishera, lost his valuable entire Canadian horse "Brown Stout," a few days ago. Cause of death is said to be infiumuuttion, Estimated value, $600 The council met on Monaay evening. The mentheis are : Reeve, Dr. Rollins ; deputy -reeve, W. G. Bissett ; councillors, Jas. Pickard, D. Johns, and T. B. Carling. The latter is the only new member. The eclipses for 1887 consist of four, two of the sun end two of the moon. One of the latter will be visible here. Of the former one will be total across Russia and northern Asia, and the other annular in South Pa- cific. Mr, John Smallacombe has ' disposed of his building site on Main-st.-the remains of the recent fire -to the I. 0. 0. P. Soc'y, receiving therefor the sum of $700. It is the intention of the Odd -I allows to erect a hall thereon. The property was sold cheap. The harvesting of the ice crop has not as yet commenced, and we don't see any pros- pects of an early start. As the ice is about eighteen inches thick, and of good quality, now is the time to gather it. We may have a January thaw when the present program concludes. The town snowplow was put to work, on Saturday last, but could do little toward removing the mountainous drifts which had accumulated during the recent cuntiuned and severe snow -storms. The corporation snow -shovels had to be used to clear the walks. The South Hu ron Farm ers' Institute which was to have met at Exeter on Tuesday and Wednesday, has been indefinitely postponed, owing to the stormy weather which pre- vailed during the week and the impassable state of the roads. Several of the neighbor- ing farmers were on hand. A meeting of the Exeter Liberal Conserv- ative Association will be held in Fanson's hell on Friday evening next, 21st inst , at 730 p. rn., for the purpose of se- lecting delegates to attend convention at Ailsa Craig on Monday next. Let there be a full attendance. Snow -shoeing and tobogganing are at a standstill at present, owing to the recent ahnost continued snow storms. When the storm abates slides can be found almost any place along the main street, from the tops of the mountainous snow banks. It would be well for the club to coat these places with ice, in order that they may be in shape when favorable weather arrives. On Wednesday evening last, it number of young people spent a profitable as well as an enjoyable time, at the residence of Mr. T. Rowe. After spending part of the even- ing in readings, recitations and music, both vocal and instrumental, they returned, gratified and benefitted. Are ilot these exercises much more profitable than many of the questionable games often indulged in? At the annual meeting of fire company No. 2, the following officers were elected for the current year :-Captain, I. Hand- ford; let Lieut., Jas. Weekes ; 2nd Lieut., Win. Creech ; Secy-Treas., D. Spicer • 1st branch, W. Parsons ; 2nd branch, S. 'fiend - ford ; foreman of hose, Geo. Hill • ass. fore- man of hose, Ira Spicer. It was ciecided to hold a concert at an early date, of which due notice will be given. To give those people who live in stiles countries an idea of the sort of winter we (?) enjoy here, we might say that it has snowed every day, more or less, during the past six weeks ; and that not a single freight train, and rarely an express, has ar- rived atExeter for several days ; and that owing to the above state of affairs, the ma- jority of the citizens have run short of their supply of coal, while the yards of the deal- ers are enipty. The present winter is the longest and most severe that the people of Exeter have had to endure. How To Rtix A TowN.-Eitherrun a town With vim or justsell out and leave it. One of two things must be done: run your town forall it iieworth, or quit the whole thing --slide out and let nature take its course. Do you want trade? Bid for it.

Then :bury 'froinsight all spite, work no Mme for a few individuals or for selfish ends, hilt pull together for the common weal and mu- tual benefit. There are it great many of our subscrifiers in arrears. This is the time of the year to pay up, although e greet many ,seem to be ignorant of this foot. Every one who has the means should settle his small debts. If yoii lig your butcher the amount you owe bmw, your butcher can pay the baker and the baker the tailor, and the tailor Inc wife's millinery bill. One good deed wonla roll along and gather goodness as it pro- ceeciedi inducing general liquidation. It is a bad beginning of the new year to enter upon it with the draw -back of a swarm of little debts, like a swarm of Jersey mis- quitoee, taking all the comfort out of livieg. N.

One would almost imagine that we were living in a Bosky Mountain district instead of a populated country. At different points along the line of railway trains were snowed hi, and it was found very difficult to keep the locomotives from freezing. Business will soon have resumed its newel state of progressiveness. -- village council. 1 The council -met at the market house, Exeter, 17th, January, 1887. Dr. Rollins, reeve; W, 0.

I know that I cannot afford to seed with timothy without a good dressing of this mineral fertilizer." This was the remark of a shrewd, practical farm- er among a group of agriculturists who were discussing farm methods. The fact that phosphate is good for grass is well under- stood in New England, where it is meanly used on either turnips or grass. Thus used, phosphate is less likely to lead to texhaus- tion of the soil than when applied to grain crops, all of which are sold from •the farm. All good farmers sow grass seed with the grain to which they apply phosphate The grass thus gets at least a part of the beuefit. There is a still greater advantage from this method, in the fact that phosphate ensures a good catch of grass, which fills the ground and thus represses the growth of weeds. In many country places the district school in winter affords the only education- al advantages which the mass of young girls and boys can hope to enjoy. Parents and guardians during this season of com- parative leisure should visit the school in their neighborhood and learn for themselves the progress that children are making. It does not matter that greater advantages may hereefter be given the pupils now ast tencli,ig them. Nothing can snake good the time and opportunities lost in early life. It is a common mistake to suppose that less experience and teaching capacity aresrequir- ed for the best management of very young, pupils, and the country school is .too often left to the teachings of those withs.no ex- perience in teaching, and with knowledge only a little in advance of the most for- ward pupils. This economy in a matter- Of the greatest importance is of the penny- wise posmd-foolish kind that ends in poverty and loss. 41/.. Killed on the Track. B.ARRIE, Jan. 17. --Thomas Alford, aged fifty years, of Becton'was found dead on the railway track by the section men this morning, a short distance north of Tioga, on the Collingwood branch of the N. and N.

Both men were in good condition. Whin/re was rather fine and McAuliffe it trifle fat. Twenty.slx rounds were fought with more or less eveness at the start, anti it decided advantage for McAuliffe atthe close.In the twenty-eighth round McAuliffe made a rush at Gilmore and landed a savage left- hander under Use Canadian' e Chin, that floored him.
