Fcnelon Falls, March 8th, 1893, The Fenclon Falls Gazette. Friday. April 2131:, 1893. The New Governorâ€"General. The Earl of Aberdeen has been appointed Governorâ€"General of Canada and is now on the ocean, but will spend about four months at Chicago or on his ranch in British Columbia, coming to Ottawa in September, on the departure of Lord Stanley. The World’s Fair. As the time for the opening of; the World’s Fair at Chicago approaches, more and more space is devoted to it in the public prints; but the comments of some of the papers are so unfavorable that it' what. they say be true, Chicago will be “ a goodplace to stay away from, ”’ during the next few. months. The election as mayor of the nominee of the liquor interest and the rowdy, clement, 7who has announced i“ running things wide open,” has given rise to a fear that not. only law. and or- der but common. decency will be but : faintly observed, and. that there will be ‘a saturnalia. of. drunkenness, gambling and every species ofimmorality through- out- the continuance of the fair. That. there will:be much to shock the feelings- of' staid and sober visitors is beyond a doubt, and'thcre is reason to believe that the great city will bc-ahotbcd of disease as well as of vice, as it will be :fillcd-with a soothing mass of humanity of variousnationalitics during the hot- test period of the year.. At present the weather is wretchedly cold, and- it is said that the natives of warm climates, who ought to be working at the exhibits of their respective countries, are all sick with In grippc or. bronchitis, except the Arabs, who fill themselves full of beer, which seems to keep them warm. The :Zulus, Egyptians, Japanese and other foreigners go shivering and growling in their native costumes; the disgusted mussulmans would turn Turk; if“ they weren’t already ofthat nationality;.and the unhappy Cingalesc from sunny Cey- lon haven’t had a single easy hour since they struck Chicago._ his intention of ' day, April 15th inst. The reeve, James Lithgow, Esq , was in the chair, and councillors Junkin, Mann and Robinson were present. . On motion of D. Robinson, seconded by Wm.

A LATE'SPRING.â€"-The winter: set in: so much earlier than usual and was SO: severe and unbroken that many expected: an early spring by way of offset, butwe‘ are having the very reverse; for as yet but little seeding has been done and: many farmers have hardly commenced: ' ploughing. we hope we: are not going- to have“ a-year without a summer,” as- they had in England.(or-something likc' it)a.a few» generationsago ;.but here we» are near the end of April, and there is. frostevery night and more or less snow. every three orvfour days.~ W. Canada’s Cheese at Chicago. The following was among the Globe’s; Ottawa correspondence on Monday last :; ‘A small special party from Ottawa went: down-to Perth yesterday in charge of.” Prof. Robertson to view the I cheeses. about to be shipped to Chicago, especi-- ally the big one. The huge- truck of“ oak and iron,_ with tires eight inches wide, was designed and. made by Mr.. W. Stanley, of Perth. This truck, 6,-« 500 pounds in weightg. is fitted. up to- bear:the exhibit. In the centre will be: the mam motli.cheesc,-. the largest ever: made. It weighs clcvcn- tons and re- quired 207,000 pounds of milk. It was: made at. the- Dominion experimental dairy station at Perth under Prof. Rob-~- rcrtson’s supervision by Mr. J. A. )Lud~‘ dock,,who will accompany the exhibit to» Chicago; It is being transported to. Chicago encased- inn mouldf of"stcel. boiler plate. While we were gazing at: the huge cheese, six feet high and nine- feet in diameter, an onlookcr, impressed with the size of it, exclaimed, ” My, it,‘ skippers get into that they'll be as big; as wood chucks." The. cheese is alreadv' sold to an enterprising English dealer iii provisions, Mr.- Lipton, who has 90‘ :storcs in LondOu, and intends shortly to. c'xtendhis business to .Canada. He‘ will get the cheese- at cost price, about. $4gOOO,‘ and intendsâ€"to cart itthrough. England-on. the- special truck. after it‘ leaves Chicago: as an. ad vertisemcntv for- his business. It will. also serve as a. good advertisement. for-Canadian cheese. A calculation shows that, according to. the consumption, per- head of cheese in Canada, an average family to consume this cheese would have to begin at the time of 'Adam and would be dining on the last crumbs when the Chicago ‘ World’s fair opens. The pyramid of Canadian products having this cheese- for a centre piece, will be crowned'with the smallest cheese ever manufactured. It is about the circumference of a half" dollar and three‘ qpartcrs of. an inch;
