SUCCESSFUL U,F.O. GATHERING.
Last night was "Farmers' Night"
in Clinton when` a public meeting
was held in the town hall under the
auspices of the Clinton branch of the
U. F. 0. and Mrs. Glenn of Exeter,
representing the U. F. W.. 0.,.and
Mr. J. J. Morrison, Provincial . Sec-
retary of the United Farmers, spoke.
-'. There was a good attendance, the
hall being pretty well tfilled, many
townspeople also showing their in-
terest in the noyenlent by their at-
tendance. A number of women were
also present, although the great ma-
jority were men.
lVIrs. Glenn spoke of the need of
organization -among the women. She
said they needed to organize for the
sante reasons that men- had and also
for •"a few other reasons of their
own." She said women had been giv-
en the;franchise and they needed to:
study citizenship so as to he able to"
vote intelligently. She spoke of
the need of helps ' in regard` to the
work of women on the farms and ad-
s laundries, can-
neries,. community 1 u
vocateil x
Y ,
n the
kitchens, g
, ,
work of the women on the farms.
"You do not do your work as your
grandfathers did," she said, address-
ing the men, "why should women go
on doing their work in the hardest
way, as their grandmothers did?"
She thought that to lighten the work
of the farms and give time for self-
improvement and for some ,pleasure
would help anueh to solve the prob-
lem of keeping the young people on
the farm. .
Mr, Morrison on rising said he felt
it was a mixed audience he was ad-
dressing but said he was sure there
were many farmers present for while
the back seats were full there were
some empty ones in front and he
thought they ought to be filled. "Far -
meta have been occupying the back
benches long enough," he said. "They
ought to move up and take the front
ones."
"The rural people feel that they
have not gotten a fair deal, and they
have decided to get it in future. That.
is the reason behind the farmers'
movement," he said. "There is lit-
tle difference in people," he went on,
"They are all very much alike." The
farmer has been diffident owing to
the fact that he has lived much to
himself. The rural people are the
great moral force of tee eotmtry,
however, and as they are now as-
serting themselves good results will
follow.'
Mr. Morrison spoke of the opposi-
tion of. the farmers' movement be-
cause of its being a class organiza-
tion. He said there was no harm in
class consciousness; all classes of
people were proud of their wox'k and
all sorts of trades and, professions
organized. He is not in favor of
broadening out, however. "Keep your
organization as a close corporation,"
was his advice to the farmer's.
He spoke of the depopulation of the
rural sections and ascribed it to econ-
omic causes. -Ile said he was one of.
a family of 'seven and the only far-
mer arra that he had nine children
and only one a farmer and he doubt-
ed if he would farm long. He gave
figures to show that his farm cost
$100 per acre and that he couldn't
sell it for $65. Ile said that the rea-
son fanning was riot profitable • as
other lines of industry was because
farmers had not looked after the sell-
ing end of their business and he
caused some amusement by compar-
ing their methods of buying and sel-
ling to those of the Indian. He gave
asthe cure the lessening of the cost
of production and also the cost of
distribution, by lowering the tariff
and squeezing, the water out of wat-
ered stoic in railways and other cor-
porations. He said that the U. F. 0.
movement would benefit all the pee-
pie, that there were now over 60,000
members and that last year they had
done $19,500,000 worth of business in
their co-operative organizations,
- Mr. Morrison spoke of the advent of
women into politics and said he
thought it would be a good tiling for
the eountrY. Politics would then be
discussed around the fireside and
children would grow up -tore itelli-
gent. "Women cannot make a worse
mess of things than the men have
done, anyway," was his rather am-
biguous way of summing up the mat-
ter,

The speaker denounced the two-

in writing, Dec. 27th, to renew liis
subscription says. "We cannot do
without the People's Paper and
look forward to receiving 'rhe News -
Record every Tuesday as to a sweet
letter from hone. We had excellent
crops in this vicinity this year and
ideal weather conditions prevailed up li
to Dec, lith, when we had our first
snow storm, Nearly all the grain
was hauled to the elevators on
wheels. The thertxionieter has al-
ready registered 30 below but indi-
cations point to a fairly mild winter.
Wishing the The News -Record and
my old hone town a prosperous
New Year."
And Mrs, T. Campbell of Oakburn,
Man,, writing on Dec. 17tix says:
"We are having a little more snow
and frosty weather the past week
bet it has been very mild with just
enough snow to allow the sleighs to
slip along, but cars have been run-
ning tip to yesterday. Today more
snow has fallen and it is much cold-
er. Begins to look like winter."

ROBINS ABOUT,.
At time of writing, Tuesday morn-
ing, we are not only anticipating an
open wnter but are enjoying it. The
weather for the past week has beon
more like late March than late De-
cember and early January, and what
is more, robins are about. Did we
see any robins? no, but we can
vouch for the veracity of the people
who did, On Christmas Day Mrs. Liv-
ertnore, Sr,, saw a robin on the lawn
at, her home' and on Monday resi-
dents on Mary' Street saw one flit-
ing about among tho trees in front
of L. Creo's house, These may have
been fat old robins who didn't feel.
equal to the long flight south, of
course, but then ono• would think
they would have tried to get a bit
south of this had they been anticipat-
ing' such a winter as We often have
in this locality. However, we never
indulge in weather predictions. We
may have six feet ofsnow and plen-
ty of below -zero weather between

March, so pleoe
don't say we, >redieted a mild lsl WTn-
f,ex. Vet if you do we shad calmly

APPLES IN . ORCHARDS YET.
The frost and snow which Baine
early in the fall, before all the ap,•
pies could be picked, caught a num-
ber on the trees and no doubt many
barrels of, theme were wasted. 13ut
M r
M , Harry ar Y J. Thompson of Goderich
township showed us a few he had
picked from: the ground in his or-
chard .yesterday, which had had no
covering all this time, and which
were really not in bad condition. We
doubt not that Harry' •inns- a .better
sample in his cellar but we ate one
of these in the intervals of grinding
out copy yesterday efteroon, and it
wasn't a bad apple at all. Why
should anyone want to go south when
'one can shoo robins off the trees and
pick up apples from beneath them
