The industries which promise the best results for the men who could locate at once with the necessary funds and ability, are: Grist 31111, Pulp, Sash and Door, Creamery, Cheese and Canning factories. 141a1•ket E: ;rdens and poultry farms would ,also receive great encouragement, while the market for vegetables, fowls and eggs is • unlimited. The district is one of the moat fer5ile in the' West and can't be surpassed for wheat, oats and barley. Na- tive fruit is abundant, game plentif al, and fishing famous. This is the best opportunity for a practical marl wiio may have a woolen mill plant and would like to move west to utilize the fleeces of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba sheep ranches. A factory doing general wood work and keeping a stock of building material in connection with a lumber yard could work up a considerable trade as well as secure a good many contracts, considering the rapid growth of the new town. A Roller Flour Mill that would do farmers' gristing and crushing is one of the most needed institutions in the district, since the town is in the heart of an excellent farming belt; without any competition. There is always a ready market for flour in supplying the lumber camps, navigators, and Indian' reservations along the rivers and lakes surrounding, while any surplus oan always be turned over to the city for exportation, Special advantages will bo offered to those who would be prepared to establish themselves among us, and for further particulars we beg correspondence with NETLEY IMPROVEMENT COMPANY, LTD. (Duly chartered, with a capitalization of $100,000.) bridges; recommended that the tender of Hill &. Co., of Mitchell, be accepted for the superstructure of Wingham bridge at $6,5$5. They found that an arch culvert would -be cheaper for 1 ' Fi teen Hall's bridge and will therefore aban- don the superstructure. In the mat- : ter of the Wroxeter bridge, it was reI V n - commended that the engineer and ir Messrs. Fraser and Musgrove view the = place and report at the Juno session. The coffer damming at the Wingham - bridge was left to the engineer to deal with. In the matter of the Holmes- ville bridge recommended that the Road and Bridge committee examine - the locality before the. June session -7. and report to the Council in June ; re- _ commended that Hill & Co., Mitchell, - have the use of the old wooden bridge at Wingham for purposes of erecting the new bridge ; recommended that the engineer make• the necessary agreements with the bridge con- tractors. After passing a by-law confirming the appointment of \V. McQuillan, of West Wawanosh, and W. S. McKer- •• crier, Wroxeter, as county auditors, the Council adjourned to meet on the first Tuesday in June. EASY TO MIX. City Office, 304 Kennedy St., WINNIPEG, MAN. .10.111 . SIU . OY 1. 1 w 1 i 1 11 1111111• What will appear very interesting - to many people - here is the article taken from a New York daily paper, giving a simple prescription, as formu- rated by a noted 'authority, who claims that hehas found a positive remedy to cure almost any case of backache or kidney or bladder de- rangement, in the following simple prescription, if taken before the stage = of Bright disease 1— Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half 0 ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce.;• '- Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Shake well in a bottle and = take in teaspoonful doses after each - meal and again at bedtime, A well-known druggist here at home, when asked regarding this pre- - scription,- stated that the ingredients -_ are all harmless, and can be obtained = at a small cost from any good pre- - scription pharmacy, or the t..ixture would be put up if asked to do so. He further stated that while this prescrip- tion is often prescribed in rheumatic — afflictions with splendid results, he could see no reason why it would not be a splendid remedy for kidney and urinary troubles and backache, as it has a peculiar action upon the kidney strncture, cleansing these most impor- tant organs and helping them to sift and filter from the blood the foul acids and waste matter which cause sick- ness and suffering.
