Since then the matter has been very little talked of, and if it is the intention to celebrate the day in con- nection with their visit, is it not time some steps were taken toward that end? It has been stated the excursion will be run on Saturday, July 4th, returning the following Monday or Tuesday. Now, could not a suitable reception and celebration be held in Wingham on caber Saturday or Monday? I believe a large majority of the citizens would be at hearty sympathy with the movement.

At this time last year export cattle were selling in the local market as high as $6.25. To- day $5.25 was almost out of the question. The reason is that prices were low in Chicago yesterday and several of the local men sent their orders off for cattle in that market, as they wera able to do better than buying in the home market. It is probable that about 50 loads of cattle were so ordered. The general run of price for export was $4.75 to $1.90. Butchers' cattle were affected by the drop in export, but there was a good de- wand for butchers' cattle; and prices gen- erally were steady. For choice cattle, $4.50 to $4.75; was paid. ' The higher priced were really light export cattle. There was a good market tor short keep feeders at $4.60`to $4.90. Light stockers were steady and in fair demand. Sheep and lambs were a little easier, and prospects are lower. - Hogs are down. The best selects were quoted to -day at $5.90, light and thick fats at $5,60•to $5.76. These prices will probably be steady for this week. The total run for the day was 126 cars with 2,425 head of cattle, 8.47 sheep and lambs, 320 hogs and 120 calves. 0 • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • 0 Decorate the Home -Yard.

The Company's foreign trade is increasing by leaps and bounds,a car load being shipp- ed every day. Numerous letters are be• tug received from purchasers of the Com- pany's implements in England which go to show that the machines are very popular in the Mother Country and their business there is sure to increase. The following are fair samples of the many letters received by their English connections: Itchen Down F Itchen Abbas, Alersfor November - Dear Sirs,— I have given the 6 -ft. er purchased from bi Haig, Andover, a fat past harvest, and a its working. I u d three horses as the ground was a and the crops sheavy, but in ordiaa season I believe two horses would do it well. The wearing parts are particularly well constructed for durability, and the general construc- tion is so simple that it can be easily manipulated by men that have not had experience before. The weather was so bad before harvest that I could not give it a fair day's trial from morning till night, but I think the machine could be driven over 20 acres in a fair harvest day, with an average crop and fairly dry ground. I may mention that I cut a crop of Rivets wheat with the "Noxon" this year, straw 7 feet long, and if it would cut that I would not be afraid of anycrop handlec P in the its refusing to future, and I am thoroughly satisfied with my purchase.
