fifteen were struck off by tke former and
sixteen by the latter, a net gain of nine
votes to eaoh party.—About fifty men are
now employed at the National- Iron Works,

the full benefit from the new industry.—The

every man and boy that can come ehould be
present. Come and hear them, their sing-

titude and truet in Christ. The deceased

have a good showing for their labor.—Messes James
Armstrong and Alberi Robertson returned home
from Manitoba last Friday. They speak very highly
of the prospecte for the farmers in the Prairie
Province. The harvest is in full swing and all that
is necessary is favorable weather for threshing and
hauling the grain to the elevators. Some of tbe
farmers are busy stacking their grain, others are
threshing it out of the stook. The quality of the
grain is good. The prioe af No, 1 le 66 cents. The
yield varies in some places that have thre3hed out.
One man threshed from a 70 acre field 2,108 bushels
No. 1 hard, another field of 40 acres netted 1,221
bushels. a fraction over aebushols to the acre, and
some will be 20 and 25, in odd cases. This was near
Boissevain. It te bard to give an accurate estimate,
as none have threshed out and in the stook gang
they thresh one day /or each man. In a gang of 6
or 7, with_ from 300 to 400 acres to thresh, will take
some time to go tonna. One lucky obap at Morden,
well !known to the resders of THE EXPOSITOR,
threshed 7,000 bushels of grain from about 220
acres. He had just finiehed threshing when these
gentlemen saw him. His name is 13J1) Johnston,
formerly of Varna, and for the last twenty years has
been a reeident of Morden. This crop will make
Manitoba boom. Winnipeg is a fine city and great
preparations are beiog made for the reception of the

THE FALL SHOW.—The annual fall show
of the Hay Branch Agricultural Society wee
held on the large and commodious grounds
of the soeiety in our village, on Wednesday
and Thursday of Net week. Zurich's show
is always a success, and deepite rather un-
favorable weather was quite as successful, if
not more so, this year than any previous
year, both as to exhibits and in point of at-
tendanoe. In the exhibition -building there
was a particularly good display in all de-
partments. This was exceptionally true of
vegetablea, a finer display of which it would
be impossible to find at any show. The
ladies wore not one whit behind, and the
pretty and useful thing; made by them at-
tracted a large share of attentien.
In fruit, too, there was a good
showing, despite the rather poor crop this
year, while there was a fine show of grain.
The weather Thursday morning was rather
discouraging, and ,plobably kept some at
home, bnt if so their absence could not be
noticed In tae large body of pleaeure seek -
era, while the outdoor exhibits did not show
any falling off, except in the swine depart-
ment, but if anything were larger and better
than usual. The afternoon was fine, how-
ever, and proved an ideal day for the show.
There was an excellent horse and cattle
show, and so uniformly good was the quality
of the animals that it often puzzled the
judges as to which animal was really the
most deserving of the red ticket. The
farmers' trotting race was an interesting
feature of the afternoon's programme, It.
was won by John Hey, with W. Witzel
second and Robert Elliott third. The baud
was there, too, and enlivened the proceedings
with- thier stirring music, Then there was
the merry-go-round and other things that
gave:every person an opportunity to have a-
goodaime, and they seemed to have it. as
every one was apparently sorry when dark-
ness began to creep en, announcing that
Zurich fair was a thing of the past for an-
other. year. The Hay society are to be con-
gratulated on the success of their fair, and
we trust that they will go on to still greater
successes. The list of successful prize win-
ners will be found on page 7 of this issue.
