--Four carloads of oil have been
shipped from the gusher of Leaming-
ton, which was struck two weeks ago.
A. six-inch stream is now spurting up
73 feet in the air. As soon as possible
the stream will be placed under con-
trol, and from all indications the
gusher is practically inexhaustible.
Seventy-five barrels a day is not bad,
remarked one of the owners of the
well.
-The amount of sugar beets unload-
ed thus far this year at the Berlin
Sugar Factory exceeds last year by
2,000 tons. Last year the amount was
28 thousand tons, and so the total
will be 33,000 tons. Last year the out-
put of granulated sugar was 7,000,000
pounds. This year, with the increas-
ed crop of beets, the output will be
near 9,000,000 pounds. Farmers are
now making ariangelnents for next
year's acreage, and prospects are that
it will be much greater than last
year.
-W. J. Shibley, of Belleville bogus
ballot box fame, who decamped when
the investigation into the alleged elec-
tion irregularities began, is in Boston,
Mass. This information is conveyed
in a deed of assignment for the benefit
of his creditors, fyled with the county
court clerk of Fronteuac. The deed
was executed in Boston on December
11. The estate is not expected to pay
one cent on the dollar. The liabilities
are between $8,000 and $7,000, and the
assets, a team of horses and a few im-
plements and a house, mortgaged to
full value.
-Recent agricultural inventions in-
cluded a mowing machine, a grain

A process is patented for the manufac-

potassium. The milk is then e add

-The following case occupied the
attention of the recent Comity Court
held at Goderich :-Burton v. Locke -
ridge -an action on a promissory note;
and Burton v. Campbell -an action to
recover moneys amounting to $1,604,
arose out of the same circumstances.

W,laat r A7,:ttla Llie !k'FA' ,
Rev, Irl Hicks' .Almanac contains a
full outline of the weather furecitets,
prepared some months before the old
year ended. We condense them, for
the benefit of our readers :
By the 4th changes to wanner will
ba the order in western. parts, and rairl
and snow will visit wide extremes,
reaching°north and south, as the gen-
eral storm conditions advance east-
wardly to the Atlantic about the 4th
to Oth, Northwesterly winds and
much colder will set in. behind the
storm areas to the west and north and
push the west side of storms to the
Atlantic. •
The second storm period includes
the 0th to 13th, being central on the
11th. Decided change to warmer,
winds shifting to southerly and falling
barometer, will appear to the west-
ward abort the 10th. During the llth,
12th and 13th rains will visit southern
and central states, turning to snow in
the north and as storms retch sections
east of the Mississippi river. On the
llth, winter lightning and thunder
aro likely toward the south. Bliz-
zardous conditions and very cold will
appear with the rising barometer out
of the northwest progressively behind
these storms.
Tho third storm period is central on
the 16th, 17th and 18th, and is almost
sure to bring in a spell of threatening,
stormy weather that will run into the
storm period following. Hence, we
shall consider it in connection with,
and as a part • of the fourth storm
period (regular). This period is cen-
tral on tate 22nd. extending from the
20th to the 25th, The causes disturb-
ing this period are the regular Vulcan
influence, the Mercury equinox central
on the same day with the Vulcan
period, with full moon on the 21st, in
perigree on the 23rd, and on the equa-
tor on the 25th. In all reasonable
probability this period will bring the
worst storms and weather of the
month. Tho barometer will fall phe-
nomenally low, generally, the rains
will turn to destructive sleet over vast
regions, and the culmination of the
period will bring dangerous blizzards
out of the northwest, attended by ris-
ing barometer and extreme cold wave.
Let nothing divert your attention
from the possibilities of this period,
and the very great cold to follow.
This is one of the times when severe
cold will penetrate far into the south
and east.
The fifth storm period (reactionary)
is central on the 28th and 29th. Look
for cloudy, stormy, blizzardous wea-
ther about the 28th and 29th, the gen-
eral cold will relax, the barometer fall
and renewed storms of rain and snow
return to most parts. The month
promises to go out with high barome-
ter and clearing, cold weather prevail-
ing in most parts. Those who have
studied our works know that the
worst sleet storms, blizzards and cold
waves, as a rule, come at the culmina-
tion of the Mercury equinoxes in win-
ter. Hence, be prepared for at least
one such general visitation during the
Mercury period -17th to 29th, Take
no hazardous risks for yourself or
your livestock.
