-J. H. Laughton ok Stratford has
made arradgements to ship a carload of
turkeys to England on Nov. 28. The
feathers are all left on, the neck is brok-
en, and all blood rnns to the head, so
the turkey loses no weight. '
-The Inland Lakes Transportation
Company has been incorporated with a
capital of one million, to put a now line
of steel steamers on the route between
Georgian Bay and Lake Superior ports.
The head office is Collingwood.
-Very sad indeed is the case of
John Manu, an old fellow who has been
wandering through East Luther, East
and West Garafraxa for a number of
years. The old man is destitute and his
face is being eaten off by a cancer.
-Mr. Neil McGill, a native of Argyle -
shire, Scotland, who settled upon the
5th con. of Stanley in October 1850, last
Saturday celebrated the 75th anniver-
sary of his brithday. Ile is iu excellent
health and spirits and Iooks good for
many years to come.
-It takes thirty miles of wire to light
the town of Clinton. In installing the
incandescent system in Wesley church
i$ miles of wire was used; none of the
other churches require nearly so much.
There are about 2000 incandescent lights
in town in addition to the arcs.
-At a meeting of the Walkerton Oil
Co. held ou Tuesday evening, it was de-
cided to drill a test well and to com-
mence work at once. It is expected
that inside of a month drilling will be

pany will be fortunate enough to strike
gusher.
-Ann Jane Irwin, formerly of Mul-
mur, lies in the Orangeville gaol on the
charge of arson. She is charged with
setting fire to the barns of Isaac Bower
of Mono. She had action for breach of
promise of marriage against the latter
some time ago and also a suit for seduc-
tion. The case was settled out of court.
-The Chesley Enterprise points out
an area of 2000 acres where there are only
seven resident farmers, or an average.
of abort one farmer for 800 acres. If

ranohiug on a small scale.
-Tilbury North township a few years
ago abolished the old statute labor
system in two divisions (Nos. 7 and 9)
and purchased an improved road
machine from the commutation money
at 50o. pet day in these two divisions.
The experiment has proved so success-
ful that the township has practically
decided to abolish statute Iabor in the
entire township to take place probably
next year or the year following, with-
out the formality of a vote.
-Mr. W. K. Snider, agricultural sup-
perintendent of the Wiarton Beet Sugar
factory, ou Nov. 6th reported their
harvest in full swing, 60 per cent. of the
beets cared for. They were having no
trouble as to labor, having 3,500 acres
in the hands of 1,800 farmers, there -
being no individual large crops. Yields
have run as high as 15 to 20 tons per
acre, but on low, undraiued land, a few
cases as low as 7 or 8 tons. The chem-
ists' reports as to sugar contents(the all-
important factor) are most encouraging.
As to sugar contents and purity of juice,
the Wiarton district beets rank high.
-"So far as my observation extends,
writes Mr. F. C. Elford, secretary of
West Huron Farmers' Institute, to the
Weekly San, "people are to some extent
going out of dairying. They give as their
principal reason the scarcity of hired ,
help and consequent high wages, while
the high prices for stock is given as the
reason why so many in this section are '
giving up the cheese factory. Farmers
hero are realizing that one cow may lose `
what, the:other makes and are weeding
out the inferior ones. They are judging
not only from the pail but the Babcock '
test as well and as a rule the milk at
home or at the factory is consequently
testing higher."
Its a pity to have a good
Suit spoiled in the making.
The suits we make give en-
tire satisfaction. Give us
trial and be convinced.

Referendum Short Catechism.
5
(1). Is the referendum a prohibitory ,j
law?
No, but it is the means by which the
temperance people hope to secure a
prohibitory liquor law: "The Liquor
Act of 1902" is the law desired and a
desirable law; the referendum means
the method of securing this desirable
law.
(2). Why is "the Liquor Act of 1902"
a desirable law?
Because it prevents the sale of in-
toxicants for beverage purposes; it closes
bar -rooms and liquor shops and in this
way removes• the temptation from our
young men.
(3). What is the penalty for the first
conviction?
Not less than $200, and the second not
less than six mouths iu jail.
(4). Can this be enforced?
Iu civilized countries any law can be
enforced. The enforcement iu this case
is pat upon the AttorueyGeneral, who
is the chief law officer of the crown.
The inspector for the province as well
as the inspectors for ridings take orders
from him.
(5). How many votes are required to
bring this law into operation?
213,723.
(6). Can this vote be polled?
Yes, if temperance people will forget
their party prejudices and poll a united
vote.
