Band which is ever growing rs in popularity and which pro. 'vided some excellent programs both days of the fair. Both nights the town hall was packed for the showing of "It Pays to Advert a farcical comedy which has An outstanding success where 'it. has been: played.

The i Has 1 beer Orotid" diatric sivas boss ticular were outstanding minded one of. the old. days When orse and buggy were the most riste means of transporia- Coy except the railway, The farm- ers of the district must have fully fuherited the love for horses that thelr fathers had before them for they were just as slick and as neat as it 'would be possible to see any Lorse. The percherons also made a fine exhibit and this breed accord- ing to the number of entries 18 be- coming" more popular each suc- ceeding year. Cattle Like the horses the cattle pre- sented a fine appearance and were there in all their glory and in great' paumbers. Shorthorns and Holsteins seemed to be the most prominent in numbers and many of the latter breed which were on show are cows which have Domin- fon. records for milk and butter fat content, Of course Orono havy- ing a2 Creamery one would expect to see lots of cows "and there seemed to be enough present to provide both milk and butter for the whole of Durham County a good many times over. Sheep The sheep too were more num- erous than in previous years and the regular winners, A. Ayre of Hampton and Harold Skinner of Tyrone carried away a great num- ber of the ribbons, This is to be expected when they carry all the major honors in their respective classes at the Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto. However many other more recent addicts to the breeding of sheep were in evid- ence and put up stiff opposition and in fact re well rep- resented in the prize Mist. Swine Then there were the swine, Dur- ham County has always been a center for the betler quality of swine and is noted at the Toronto stockyards for the unusually large bumber of selects that arrive from this county, : science. This latter is used at fairs in describing There were plenty of to twenty class. and in this case the p. ere very evenly ' distributed, rom the eye of a mere onlooker they all look selects so the judges must have a real hard time decid- ing the merits of the entries.

Some in the poultly building were not con- tent to be just on show for their qualities but had to Jay an egg in the bargain to show that they were not only fine looking birds but also were good layers, Other Exhibits While the other exhibits at the fair were every bit as good as the livestock exhibits these were sb numerous that it weuld he folly to go into detail concerning them #80 we will have to mention them as we saw them In the building. First the grain and seeds. We did not know much about these but we saw lots of red tags on them and that represented first prizes and so they must have been good. The fruit, Well one would. expect a great display of fruit one of the greatest fruit growing centers of the Dominion but this had an beat we have ever seen. Apples weighing as much as a pound and a half a piece were a common sight and so many varieties that it would need an expert to sort them out and name them. Pears and plums were there in plenty too but apples were easily the main attraction in this section, Huge displays of flowers, vege- tables and plants were also feat- ured in the main bullding as were fine displays of Doriestic manus facture, ladies' work, decorative and constructive art, fine art and lastly but' certainly not the least, exhaustive exhibits of Domestic the name cakes, ples, home made bread, scones, and all those other things Which only farmers have the pleasure of living on. The farmer may bemoan the falling prices of certain commodities but they have it all over the town folk where cooking is concerned. THREE FIRES IN WEEK Pembroke.--~For the third time within a week a farmer of this district lost buildings and garner. ed crop by fire and the suspicion that a fire bug-is running ramp- ant is now general. A blaze which broke out on the farm of ex- Reeve Michael Heenan, destroyed four barns and caused a loss of $15,000. Two horses were burned to death. 2 | CHANGES ARE MADE IN'BUS SCHEDULES FOR WINTER MOS.

Of course there was plenty to talk about when Bowmanville romped home with more points than the other two entrants, Whitby and Port Perry, put together. What the result would have been had the Oshawa Collegiate entered is a matter for conjecture but without them Bowmanville proved to be easily the best of the three, A lot of the credit for Bowman- ville's win of the Basset Cup, em- blematic of the - District cham- pionship, was due the efforts of the Colmer boys. Between them they came home first in eleven different events out of 18 events in which a winner was proclaimed. Two events were relays and the Colmer boys were members of the teams, The girls also did remarkably well apd made a fine showing though not as fine as did the boys. A full report of the meet appears on another PRge of today's Times. PREFERENCE ON MANY PRODUCTS IS PROBABILITY (Continued from Page 1) trade between the sister dominions. Also With New Hon. Mr. Stevens also had some informal conversations with the New Zealand representatives in regard to trade with New Zealand. Prior to the Canadian general ' elections the Liberal government gave notice of under which the provisions of the Australian trade treaty were etxend- ed to New Zealand. This notice ex- pires Oct, 12. After that date New Zealand butter enters Canada under the British preferential rate, fixed in the new conservative government's emergency tariff schedule at eight cents a pound. The' extended Aus- tralian treaty had admitted New Zea- land butter to Canada at onc cent a pound, while the then existing Brit. ish preference was three cents a pound. New Zealand replied to Canada's increased butter tariff by increasing the duty on Canadian automobile parts, Zealand conversations, it is "stated; dre also proceeding with the utmost cordiality on both sides. In Canadian circles it is pointed out that while the British preferen- tial rate on butter was increased by the Bennett government, the general rate on imports fron Yofeign eoun- tries was also increased. Thus the spread in empire preference was maintained even though the British rate was increased. GAR DRIVEN BY UNKNOWN PERSON KILLED FAREWELL (Continved on on Page 3) was an old open model Chevrolet, He could not swear to it however. The evidence of her husband was corroborated in detail by Mrs, Jol- low. She said that the car which struck Farewell was travelling east at what she considered to bé a high rate of speed. Investigations which were made by the police following the accident, were described in detail by P, C. Frank Fawbert, of the city force, who although off duty, happened to be in the police station when sonmie- one called stating that there had been a serious accident on Bloor street, Constable Fawbert stated that he immediately motored to the scene accompanied by P. C, Hele. Arriving at the spot, the officers were told that a man and woman, with a wagon and team of horses, had been seen close by when Fare- well 'was struck. Having been told that She man had driven his team 'east, P, C. Fawbert testified that he and Constable Hele had then set out in pursuit and soon encountered Mr. and Mrs. Jollow. Juestioning Jollow, he was told Wi the car ich struck Farewell resembled an open" Chevrolet, Con- stable Fawbert stated. = The two of- ficers. then made a search of the vi- cinity to see if they could locate a car, answering this description, but were unguccesaful. It was not until the morning: he. learned that theft of his car, the constable said. Ny The finding of Miller's car on Clif= |: ford Roads the morning following the |. accident, was narrated b, vingial Constable "T, Mitchell. The left front fender was dented in, he said. A headlight rim which fitted the left headlight of Miller's. car, was submitted to the jury as an exhibit. James Sleemon, farmer residing on the base line road, testified that he had found the rim near the scene of the accident on the Monday follow- ing. A rim was missing from Miller's car when it was located Saturday, Provincial Constable Mitchell formed the jury.
