The Ontario Department of Agricul-
tute has issuel a bulletin relative • to
the crops in the province. Fall wheat
will produce little less than the aver-
age, and spring wheat is reported as
not altogether satisfactory but the pro
duction will be in excess of 1892, Barl-
ey will be late, up to the average in
quality. •Oats are rank in straw, but
with favorable weather will be an im-
mense crop Corn is backward, but
prospects are exceedingly good. Pe,as
are "good in high lands, poor in low
lauds," and barring the bug will be a
satisfactory crop. •The potato bug is
present in such immense numbers as
to excite apprehension, otherwise the
tubers are making grand (growth.
Roots are COMiller, on well, and crops
in general are relented good on high
well drained fields, poor or total failure
on low and undrained lands.
Advice to leatherS.
The following advice is given to
bathers by the Royal Humane Society
of England:—Avoid bathing,- within
two or three hours aftel a meal. A-
void bathing when eehansted from fa-
tigue or any other causeAvoid bath-
ing altogether in the open air if after
beieg a short time ni the water it
causes a sense of chilliness with numb-
ness of the hands and feet. Bathe
when the body is warm, provided no
time is lost in getting into the water
Avoid chilling the body by sitting; or
standing, undressed on the banks or in
boats after having been in the water.
Avoid remaining too long in the wat.
er; leave the water immediately there
is the • slightest feeling of chilliness.
The vigorous and the strong may
bathe early in the morning on an
empty stollasch. The youtig and those
who are weak had better bathe two 01
three hours after d meal—the best time
for such is two or three hours after
breakfast, Those who are sobjected
to giddiness or faintness, and those
who suffer from palpitation or other
sebse of discomfort at the heart, Should
not bathe without fiest consulting their

Grand Bend.
• Dnoweenn.—An exceedingly sad
drowning a c cicle,nt happened, here on
Thursday last about noon, when Wm.
Phippin, aged about 20 years, and son
of Mr. Phippin'of Parkhill, met with
his death by drowning. It appears
he and several others were down on
the beech of the lake enjoying them-
selves, while others were bathing Some
of the parties who were bathing inyit
ecl him to accompany them, but he
said "No," stating at the same tinoe
that his parents did not wish him to go
in the water, °vying to the fact that
while in the water the day previous
he was taken with cramps, However
they persuaded hien to go in, tittle
thinking that their pleasure was to be
turned to grief. He had not been in
many minutes, and was just a shert
distance from the shore, When he be.
gan to struggle and call for help, but
before help could reech him he satils
beneath the wavee to rise no more
alive. It Was some time before the
body was recovered, owing to the lake
being so very rough. His remaies
were taken to Parkhill and there in-
terred. •
The followieg item appeared in the
London Daily A d viser:
"A jolly crowd of London boys struck
the Bend at the beginning of the week
aed they have already added such life
to the place and created such amuse-
ment that the stalwart oaks will weep
with the willows when the woods cease
to hear their joymie laughter. They
are located at "Kamp Misery," and
their names are 'Messrs. T. E Mara, W.
Mare, G. Forsythe, Tony Tillman, A,
E. Brown, W. M. Vanhatter and W. B.
Gilhuly (all of T. A. •Mara Company,
London). Their tents are ornamented
with placards, one over the dor „bear-
hig. the line from Dante, "All hope a-
bandon ye who enter here." Another
one heralds the fact that "Dr." Jerry
Woods. Surgeon dentist, is one of the
crowd, that he makes painful extract-
. . .
Ion of teeth a spetialtty, and that he
will inflict a lead filling while you wait.
It further states that his office hours
are from 12 p.m. to 3 am, a fact which
is no doubt greatly appreciated by
camping neighbors. Another bulletin
states that a housemaid is badly want.
ed, and that W. B. Gilhuly will run his
practiced eye over all references. Ap•
plicants 51111 please note that they will
fiot be allowed out more than eight aft-
