THE HURON E LefidbUr3r. FARMERS' ImiTUTE.-A meeting of the East Huron Farmers' Institute was held in lJones' hall, here, on Wednesday last The attendanee was not nearly ao large as it , should have been; and those who failed to 1 -be present missed a treat as the practical 1 &tense del nil ad s delivered were brim f of most useful information, which could not fail to be of profit to those who listened to them. The -chair was °coupled by the President, Mr. Thomas Strachan Reeife of Grey, and .an excellent chairmla he makes. A thoughtful and well prepared paper was read by Mr.. J. J. Irwin, of .McKillop. Major Shepherd, of Niagara, delivered an address on fruit culture and the planting of trees, in which he gave much useful informa- tion, which, if pat into practice by our farmers generally, would enable them to make much more profit out of their orchards than they do now. Mr. Gould, of Uxbridge, in North Ontario, delivered an addreas on corn for ensilage and the silo, and he suc- •eeeded in giving many new hints of practi- cal value on• this mach discussed subject, and proved by examples from his own por- sonal exwienoe, the advantages of growing • corn and feeding ensilage. ,Both these gen- tlemen are actively and successfully Len. gagedin the . lines in which they dealt, and, -consequently, their addresses were all the more valuable. The evening meeting was more largely attended, and an excellent musical programme was rendered, as well as further nseful addresses from Messrs. Shep- herd and Gould. On the previous day a very successful meeting was held at Ethel, in the township of Grey, and on the follow- ing day at Constance, in Hallett. ' Bluevale.

In the evening Mr.Gould spoke again, las subject being "Remedy for over produc- tion and low -prices" and so did Mr. Shep- pard who was just splendid when lecturing on '4 Three hiatorical days on Niagarariver." He described the battle of Queenston Heights,Beaver Dams and Lundy'sLane and told several very interesting anecdotes con- nected i with those historical event& The most interesting story was that of _brave Laura Sword, who slipped away from the picket guards and ran about fifteen miles, having to meet, or rather to avoid, hostile . Indians and Americans, on the way, to tell Fitzgibbon of the approach of the Americane and also their numbers and ability. Part of the manoeuvreing of thebattle of Queenston Heights occurred on Mr. Sheppard's farm. 'The addresses given on idonday were all good as they always are. In the after- noon about three dozen people were present and in the evening, although the audience was larger,it was still small.Thia is not as it should be. The speakers are men who have inade a success of the subject on which they speak and who are paid to explain, clearly, the reasons of their success, at, the Farmers' Institute meetings and farmers who do not .attend, stand in their own light. . .- NoTne.-One et Clayton Duff's Buff Cooh in hens laid an egg one day last week that measured sixand a quarter inches oneway ant. seven and three quarters inches the other.- -Owing to the very wet night many of those -invited to the Christian Endeavor "At Home" in the manse last Friday evening could not attend..
