We are having beautiful weather at peeeeut, although it was fairly cold last•week wdthsoute heavy ftoets, but didn't do any damage to speak of. The wheat seeding was cowplsted last week on west farms and is growing splendidly. fphe out seeding is now under way and in the course of a couple of weeks the seed- thg will be finished by the mnjo, ily of farmers. The soil /lire been worked up in fine shape thio season and with fair weather ceuditioms should pro- duce a good crop. There hue been very little rainfall thislaet month or so. but an abuudauce of mosquitoes, which is said to be air indication of a good °rep, su guess there will be no lack of grain. Belfield is a pretty little town which should grow rapidly.

Preparations are being made for the betiding of a new sidewalk on the West aide ellfa't m 1 t street, On Sunday night John Schaefer had the misfortune to lose a valuable mare through blood poisoning.

We are pleased to repots that the latest reports she is doing as will as can be expected. Listowel A meeting of the subscribers of the 13e11Telephone company, for the pur- pose of discussing rates and eerviee, was held recently in the U. F. 0. Hall, Britton, with an attendance of about eighty phone users, who decid- ed by an unanimous vote, that unless the Bell company will provide better service and cheaper rates, they would have the phones taken out. Miss Edythe Peffeis, of Listowel, was awarded $175 by Judge Barron. at the June sitting of the County Com t, in her Hutt for $600, as compen- sation fnr injuries received when she was (Arnett by a horse and buggy own- ed by the defendant, James Fall's. The accident happened Dec. 27th, on )lain street, in front of the Arlington Hotel, resulting in Mies'! idlers receiv- ing a broken collar bone. Both part- ies claimed not to have seen the ap- proach of the other, and the judgment would appear to indicate that His Honor held that the responsibility was not all on one aide. Seaforth George Stogdill has sold his resi- dence on James street to Louis Hoegy, and intends removing with his family to Toronto about the first of the month.

Sone of this material was to have been spread as soon as the hay crop had been taken off, while the balance was ready (01 working as 80011 as the mill re -opened. Owing to the very inflammable nature of the material it was absolutely impossible to sae° any of the stacks, but the fire- men by a quick 10*1, good judgment acid good work, saved the huge frame ehede and crop, and the seed llouee, a large frazzle building on a brick found- ation, which was full of flax seed and tow, and which was situated not mote than ten feet from the end of the row of burning .stacks. The side of this building watt scorched and the win- dows were broken, but the contents were very little damaged, and the fact that it was saved at all points to a very efficient fire biigede, Fortun- ately there was very little wind at the titue or the result, no doubt, would have been much more serious, The ;tee to the company, It is stated, will be eomethin over $35.000. This is the seemed fire loss suffered by this company within a year, their mill having been destroyed jest before the opening of the season last Spring.

WAL.0ER, Olerk, Tip Burs. of Potatoes (F;xpetimentat Fau lis Note) A trouble which is widely distribut- ed and very prevalent in soueseasons, aid to which the name "Tip Burn" has been given, is to be found among our potato crops, The trouble takes the form of a gradual burning and drying Op of the leaves and planta, often commencing ata comparatively early stage in their growth and, in many (arses, if allowed 10 go on no- cheoked, slowly but surely involving the whole of the plants so that they die down a considerable time before the tubers are fully developed.

Nor has it ever proven so desttuctive as Late Blight, although evidence has been obtained that in 80580(18 then it 18 severe and no effort is made to check, a considerable reduetiott in the yield of marketable. lathers, and to the pre. mature death of the plants from Lhie 0111180, may result. Inreatigatcrs of this trouble are not yet In agreement es to the cause. The nbNervations of some have led to the belief that a period of hot, dry weath- er during the growing season enures tate leaves to throw off, moisture more tepidly than itean be furnished by the plant, the resell being the ap- pearanee of Tip Burn. This theory serene however Grebe disputed by the fact that the troo1 le is not found the riot regions of (.he Western States whets the temperature often becomes excessive and the air is especially dry. More 1ecent investigations lead to the belief that this burning of the leaves probably follows the depreda- tions of 'sucking insects.
