are booming. There can
ion about that. Net in
„ ra..have there been the num-
0c103e of garden, field and
that, have been shown in the
Melfi in, this county this season.
Derv, this year crops of all Inn
xtde axe abundant, and the quality
s good. 'Perhaps that has something
"t do with the number and ,excellence
of the exhibits seen.
chaps the hard times ana scarcity
sof monelr •has something to do with it,
The ,opportunity of making an extra
aallhr, or two, which the Fall Fair
presents, is not to be passed up. Fer-
' haps that is why the best fruits of
garden and field are being looked up
and the best and next best stock is
being groomed and brought out. Per-
, haps it is.
And not in many years have the
Fall Fairs been as largely attended,
or as great an interest shown in their
• exhibits.
Perhaps the hard times and scarcity
of money has something to do with
that too. People haven't the money to
flit about the country 'this year as
they formed a habit' of doing in other
yeatt.
Perhaps, it is because people have
to seek their pleasure nearer home
and choose cheaper •ones, that the
Fall Fair has come into something
like its own again.
• Whatever the cause, there can be
no .question but that the Fall Fair is
an outstanding attraction this year.
The exhibits are there and the people
are there to examine,' to criticize or
admire them. That makes a fair. •
It might be added that the auto-
mobiles are there too, but that the
greater number of them are outside
the fence, not inside as in other years.
Perhaps the hard times and scarcity
pf money may have something to do
With that.
If it has, it is all to the good of
the community, not to mention the
fairs. It gives the owners an oppor=
tunity to examine exhibits at closer
range and to bump into and talk' to
old friends.
In other words, it makes the Fall
._) Fair a social centre, as well as an
educator and an exchange where the
best methods of agricult'iire and stock
breeding are bartered without charge.

With a team and racked wagon the

WAGONS WITHOUT
LIGHTS
The Expositor has more thhn .once
spoken of the danger and risk ethat
farriers and teamsters run by driving
buggies and wagons cie the roads and
highveays at night without carrying a
light of some 'kind.
Public attention is again drawn to
this carelessness by a fatal accident
'which happened en Tuesday evening
on the highway north of Mitchell,
where. a man was almost instantly
killed, when thecar in which he was
driving, crashed into the rear of a
wagon with a large flat rack on it,
which the police claim, was being
driven along the highway without .a
light or reflector on it.
The same evening a farmer driaing
a wagon along the Kippen road, had
the narrowest escape he will ever
!Mae from being smashed into, and
the driver of the car escaped being
ditched, and, possibly, serious injury,
by a margin he doesn't like to think
A week or awe ago, one horse of a
tethn woe killed an We" highway near
Exeter, and one reads every day in
the papers of similar accidents, all
caused by the same thing -driving at
night on d the highways without a
light.
We know at this seaeon of the year
when darknees comes so early and
there is considerable teaming to do,
the temptation, when there is only a
highway to cross, or a few rods to
go, is alsnost irrisistable. The diet -
awe is so short, why waste the time
in getting a light.
• It M this belief that a farmer has
that he won't be on the\ road long
enough to he the cause of an accident,
that is the cawe of the greater num-
ber of accidents of this kind, and it
is& very mistaken belief at that.

BRUCEFIELD
Flower Show. -The annual Flower
Show of the Brucefield Horticultural
Society held recently in the school
room of the church, proved to be one
of the best ever held by the Society.
The entries were more numerous than
in former years and the display of
flowers was of a much finer quality.
There was noticeable' a great improve-
ment else in the arrangement of the
plants and flowers on the part of the
exhibitors. This part of the show
was very favorably commented on by
Mr. William Hartry, of Seaforth, who
very ably acted as judge. The So-
cieLy gave prizes also for the best
kept school grounds and best display
of flowers by .the pupils. The prizes
were awarded as follows: First prize
to School Section No. 3, Tuckersmith,
teacher, Mies Mary McNaughton; 2nd
prize to School Section No. 2, Tuck-
ersmith, teacher, Miss Jean McKen-
zie. The display of flowers by S. S.
No. 3 was one of the features of the
show, being of a very high order, re-
flecting much credit upon both teach-
er and scholars. The list *of prize
winners are as follows: Display of
