The central is to be in Dr. Bice's drug store, A pig which was being driven along near Nile caused an accident in the damaging of a buggy. The animal got in front of the horse, which bolt- ed, breaking the shafts, and, turning around, put back to the place from where it had just come, and by the time it got there had kicked itself clear of the buggy. A large number from this vicinity attended Jas, Aitcheson's very suc- cessful barn -raising on the old Well - wood place on Saturday last. A very exciting race took place, the captains tieing Charlie Took and Robt. Mc- Guire, the former side finishing first, About 300 people partook of a bounti- ful supper. When the building is completed, Mr, Aitcheson will have a very commodious barn. The residence of Thos. McCann was struck by lightning on Saturday, June 29th, in the storm that afternoon, The chimney was injured and the plaster and joists in four rooms were much damaged. Mr. McCann's sister was stunned and Mr, McCann, going into one of the rooms after the ac- cident, received somewhat of a shock. Other places in the neighborhood which were struck were Wm. An- drews', Mrs. McCabe's and Win. Mc- Allister's. On Sunday evening some young folks had a narrow escape from serious accident on the 4th con., West Wawa - nosh, near the village. A couple of rigs got racing and coming up behind another one there was a collision re- sulting in the upsetting of both into the ditches. The innocent parties un- fortunately were the ones to suffer the most. John McWhinney's buggy was badly damaged and he and Geo. Pent- land, who was with him, were badly scratched and shaken up, while the other fellow and his girl escaped with some torn dress goods. That is what comes of racing horses on Sunday evening. On Thursday evening, July 4th, there was a fairly good attendance of ratepayers in _Agricultural Hall to hear the promoters of the Ontario West Shore Electric Railway explain their scheme for a line from Goderich to Lucknow and along the lake shore to Amberley, and we are informed that there was a monster turn -out at a similar meeting on Friday night at Kintail. We believe the promoters of the railway will ask the township of West Wawanosh, or that part of it which will be benefitted by the rail- way,to pass a by-law guaranteeing the bonds of the company to the amount of $75,000, The three polling sub- divisions of Ashfield on the east will be asked to guarantee a like amount, and the other four sub -divisions of Ashfield will likely be asked to gua- rantee bonds to the amount of $125,- 000, There will of course be pro- visions in the by-law to safe -guard -the municipalities so that these bonds cannot be disposed of by the company, only as the building of the road pro. gresses. If the road proves itself a paying venture the municipalities will have all the benefits of the road with out a cent of cost, but if the road should prove a failure the municipali- ties will be secured by a first lien on the property of the railway com- pany. Council met as per adjournment ; members all present, Reeve Bailie in the chair. Treasurer's statement show- ed balance on hand of $407. Reeve re- ported that the Solicitors advice was that the township was not responsible re loss of G. Vint's horse. Mr. Wat- son was ordered to pay over to the Reeve the amount of subscription re Shannon's hill, on motion of Medd and Murray. The petition of G. Big- ley and others, re sidewalks at Dun- gannon was granted on motion of Murray and Thompson. The town- ship agreed to pay 40% of the cement sidewalks at Dungannon, on motion of Anderson and Thompson and by- law was drawn up for the same. G. Youngblutt and J. Arthur, of Man- chester, asked for assistance to pur- chase and build roadway to the sta- tion; $100 was granted, on motion of Medd and Thompson. The township rate was struck at 1 4-10 mills on the dollar. Cheques were issued to the amount of about $300. Council ad- journed to meet on Saturday, Aug, 10th, at 10 o'clock.

It le not one single thing that makes .1 co-operative creamery successful, but it Is the combined work of many essen- tial things, says State Dairy Inspector Wlukjer of Minnesota, The butter• shaker is generally considered the most Important factor for a suceessful creamery, but his importance is mainly that he is in a position to bring togeth• 'ec and harmonize the forces to bear on the Important place. The buttermaker has an unlimited amount of pressure behind his creamery business if hei REErraG A RECORD. goes to work and develops it right. Of course a buttermaker generally has his hands full in keeping his creamery pre- sentable, and lie should receive liberal assistance from all concerned, and those concerned mostly to that work are the farmers themselves. While there are many ways in which the farmer may give his assistance, I want to point to one especially that the farmer is even more Interested in than the buttermaker. This is the Improve- ment o1' the dairy herd so as to get a bigger yield from the number of cows already on hand. The farmer is the one who is benefited most and should feel most interested. Now, I want to call attention to one way In accomplish- ing this that is practical, and a way that every dairyman should use, and that is to keep such a record of each cow in the herd that will show at the end of the year what each individual cow has done. This at first thought would seem like something that would entail a great deal of work, and I will not deny but what it takes some extra work, but I think it safe to say that 'it will be the best paying work that you can do in connection with your dairy. The things necessary are a spring scale, pencil and memoranda book, all of which need not cost over $2, and the extra work necessary need not be over thirty minutes a month outside the time it takes to do the figuring, and that will depend on how quick you are to figure. The thing to do with this ap- paratus is to piaee it where you empty the milk after milking. Taking the milk from each cow, you first hang the pail on the sale, and with the pencil and book you hare handy you make a record of what the cow has given. You can repeat this for every milking if you wish, but for a beginning about four times a month will give you good results and show you where you have the cow that is stealing her board and where you have the one that is paying for it. In connection with this it is also nec- essary to have the milk from each cow tested about three times or more a year. With the number of pounds of milk and per cent of fat in mill., you have a basis to figure the value of your cow. The value of such a record is well expressed by Mr. Sly when he says, "If a farmer has two cows and loses $10 on one and gains $10 on the other, it does not take much of a mathe- maticlan to see that he did not make any money, but if he disposes of the cow that he lost $10 on he would be $10 ahead, besides saving extra time and labor required to care for the ex- tra cow." Tteep L'teaArlu Clean. It pays to be clean about the dairy. I1ilk pails, strainers, cans, as well as Separator and bottles, if used, should first be rinsed with cold water, washed with steam or boiling water with the 'aid of a scrubbing brush and placed in n clean, airy place to dry. Do not al- low any milk to accumulate to seams or corners. In the cleaning process use a cloth as little as possible, for unless frequently and thoroughly scalded it is sure to furnish a lodgment for number- less bacteria. raiaifying Pedigrees. The life of a breed depends upon the honesty of the men who make out the pedigrees, and there should be severe punishment for a man who de- liberately falsifies a pedigree or ser* tificate of breeding. It is due cattle breeders, however, to say that their transactions have been remarkably free from any tampering with pedl- grees.-l'3olsteln-Friesian Register, decile Cattle, A pet calf will become a gentle cow.
