Tliisiiew pest lias been discovered in several orchards io the Niagara district, and tbe Ouiario government has taken prompt sti'p: to inform the public of the danger. Prof. Pauton of Guelph oollega has made a highly inter- ssting and instructive report on the insect, and eTerybody ia invited to atk for this at the Du partment of &gricaUure, Toronto. The farmers of Owen Sound dis- trict enjo} the advantage of having in their midst one oi the very best creameries that can be found in Can- ada. Just at present Messrs. Btruth- ers and McQuaker, the proprietors, are paying out $1000 per mouth to tbe farmers, and $300 for wages, teaming, etc. They cater largely to the Engliith market, but also supply tbe local trade. On several occaoious we have had the pleasure of examin- ing this thoroughly equipped factory, and behove it to be, not only an honor . to the place, but a very groat boon to the farmers. It is now most com« plelo iu every particular. Such a factory could and ought to be mains taiued iu this district. The facilities here are quite as good as thoso which the Owen Souud factory enjoys. If it could not bo started on the co opcrats ire plan, tome enterprising individual or individuals should undertake it. About 10 cents per quart is paid for cream at the Uwen Sound factory, and this is much more prolitablQ tliau making butter and selliog it at 10 or \fi cents per pound. IJie Twelfth at Harkdale burne and Laurel vioinity.with the lod|{e« in that district. The speaking wns in a beautiful ({rove, and the site had been excellenily srranK- ed, forming a natural amphitheatre where the platform was in view for everybody. On the platform we noted Dr. Spro'jle, Rev. G. R. Bell of Laurel,Rev. Mr. Graham, CountyChaplain.Shelburne, Dr. Oliver of Walters Falls, Rev. Messrs. SiiitpBOn and Hunter of ftfarkdale, and Rev. J. Mahan, Flesherton. Mr. John Lyons occupied the chair.and the Orango- m«n were welcomed by Mr. I. B. Lucas in a clever little speech. The speakers came in the foUowhig order : Rev. Mr. Bell, Presbyterian minister of Laurel ; Rev. J. B. Graham, Shelburne ; Rev. J. Mahan, Fleshertim ; Rev. Mr. Simpson, Markdale ; Rev. Mr. Murphy, Walters Falls. The proj{rani was interspersed with music b y Fleeherton, Dundalk, Shelburne and Durham bands and Laurel fife and drum band, and ended with God Save the Queen. The ladies of the Methodist church, Markdale, ft>d 600 people at dinner and took in 91G0. Fleshorton band and the U. P. B. A. headed the procession, as they ought to by order of merit. Our IT. P. B. A. were tliu neatest lot of men on the groiindH. Tluj whole domonstration was very free from rowdyism or drunkenness in any form, so much so that one of the speakon aommenCod upon it. The gathering was very orderly and spoke volumes for the Orangemen of East Grey. It was ths best demonstration in every sense that we have ever seen outside the city. The weathei was superbly ccx)l and the crowd thoroug'y enjoyed itself. And thuH has another twelfth of July passed away. Wareham DVAN CK ?5» 4Q00 Paopla Ctlcbrated the day In tb« nawar "Cornabut" Markdale saw the largent crowd of people on Monday tlmt has ever con- gregated 'within its borders, A very conservative estimate plncon the number of strangora who viuited that hospiliiblo villagu at 4000, and of the.iu about lOUU were Orangemen. There wore 27 Iodides present, and from early morning until afternoon a continuous Htreamof vehicles poured the crowd into its streets. The business places had been nicely decorated, and nine tine arches made the streets appear cool and shady, while the iMlssmic odors wafted on the air gave a somewhat medicinal character to the celebration. Five brass l)ands and 27 drums and as many tifes can make con- siderable noise, and on these oucasions there is nothing modest about them â€" they must work for all that is in thuin^ and they did it on Monday.
