Dept. of Highways Lays Dust on Connecting Link Calcium chloride was laid this Tuesday on the connecting link of the Provincial Highway through Flesh- erton, by the Department of Public Highways. This is not the usual practice of the department ,but has been done as an experiment as to the dust-laying qualities oii' this miner- al. The Department of Highways had practji'ally declined to do the work as t';e connecting link had not been taken over, but Dr. Jamieson, M. P. P., in being appealed to inter- ceded on the behalf of Flesherton, and secured the distribution. It is claim- ed that with the application of calci- um chloriile, the dust on the streets will be laid permanently for the re- mainder of the summer. The thanks of the Village of Flesherton is exten- ded to Dr. Jamieson for this act of mercy on his part, and for his inter- est in village afairs . AVhen the De- partment of Highways consented to lay the dust on the main highway, the village Council met in the town hall Friday evening last and decided to expend $100 by applying the same on Collingwood -â- â-  ' Durham streets at once, the laying oif the Calcium Chloitde mil also be done by W. J. Moore, provincial road foreman in this district. Asa Hill Died Monday From Terrible Injuries .A.sa Hill, R. R. No. 5, Markdale, (â- h'd at his homo on Monday morn- ing a.s the result of injuries which he I .?ceived when he fell in his barn at noon on Friday last. Mr. Hill, who was a bachelor? resided on his farm abgut three miles from Markdale, on what is known a.s the west back line, and on Friday, while workng in the barn something went wrong with the .small car whicli operates the hay fork, and Mr. Hill placed a ladder '."loni a scaffold to the car, which was up in the peak of the barn. Just what happened, whether the hi-ider sliiipod, or the scaffold gave way, is not known, but at any rate Mr. Hill was precipitated to the floor of the barn, a drop of about 35 feet. Two boards of the scaffold came down with him, indicating that there was a shifting of the boards. In his descent, he strurk his shoulder on a corner of the wagon, which was stand- ing on the floor, crushing it very badly, and one leg was broken dose to the thigh, the bone protruding right through the flesh. He also sustained internal injuries. Mr. William Byers, who happened to be in the barn at the time of the accident, ran to hi5 asistance, and at once telephoned to Markdale for medical assistance, Drs. Brown and Ego responding. The unfortunate man was removed into the house, and later Dr. H. G. Murray of Owen Sound was summonetl, and everything done to relieve the sufferer, but he relapsed into a state of unconsciousness early Saturday evening, and he passed a- way at 5 o'clock on Monday morning. Those who .attended him were of the opinion at the start that nothing could be done to save his life, so severe were the injuries received. It was the internal injuries and the teiTible shock which caused his death. Deceased .who was between 59 and 69 years of age resided on the farm with his mother, who is in her 89th year. He was considered upright and honest, and a very successful far- mer, and the news of his tragic death will be sincerely regretted by the en- tire community. The funeral will be held this Wed- nesday afternoon to the Markldale cemetery, service at the house at 2 o'clock. He is survived by two bro- thers, Silas, who lives near by, and William, of Orange Valley, and two sisters, Mrs. Piper of Ceylon, and Mrs. Love, Euphrasia.
