SOMEWIYAT MIXED.—An ex- change: Sometimes after threshing cows turned into the barnyard at night, with access to a fresh straw stack, will pick at the chaff and eat enough to diminish their milk flow. It is this often, rather th to the diminished pasture, that lessees the milk yield at this season. We have known farmers to put a fence around the stack, so as to keep their cows from injering themselves at it, as a simple-minded person is said once to have put a fence around a very poor lot to keep Iris stock from grazing on it. A Goon PAPER.—For your family or your friend's family is the Mon- treal Witness, which is abreast with the news. It has been the uncom- promising foe of ecclesiasticism, of the drink traffic, and all forma of oppression, among which it counts protection. It has devoted itself much of late years to the promotion of reciprocity with the United States and has recently been filled with the contest against Jesuit aggression, on which battle -field it is, as might be expected, the foremost and most fearless champion. The question and answer departments of the Witness have grown into au institu- tion in the country, and the paper is well known as an old friend and instructor of the farmer, "Linden - bank" and "Rusticus" being still constant contributors. The children look for their special stories and for the puzzle department. The yearly subscription to the Daily Witness ia< $3.00 and to the Weekly Witness $1.00, which should' be addressed to the publishers, John Dougall & Son. • The Northern Messenger, leaned by the same publishers, is still the cheapest illustrated paper published, and is full of the beet of family reading as well as reading for the young. The subscription price is only 30 cents a year. Judge Doyle is as yet the juniur judge of the county of Hulot), in spite of his removal by an unreliable portion of the county press. 1-Iow do you stand on the label'?

I understand that some of the Bayfield people feel auuuyed at the reference by me to some wrong clu- ing by persons from the village at a social iu the township not long ago. Now, when I said the miscreant or miscreants came from Bayfield I had no idea of accusing the respect- able people of the village. But there are black sheep in every com- munity and Bayfield is not behind the tines in that respect, neither are they wanting in honest people by a large majority.
