No one can blame Mr. Jackctt, who cannot be expected to fur- nish water for nothing; but we agree with Mr. Kelly that itwill be a disgrace to FeneIOn Falls, as well as an injury, if it go abroad that a visitor to the village cannot get a cup of water with- out paying for it.

CLARK & SON. Commandant Booth, the head of the in Cheap. Sale is a. Success. _ . H Falls on Thursday of last Week, and delivered an address at night in the {Methodist church,which, though a very large building, was filled to its utmost capacity. The members of the Army in Fenelon Falls and its vicinity are more numerous than they were a year or two ago, but so many of them were unable to leave their employment that only about twenty were at. the station to receive the Commandant when he ar- rived by the afternoon train. As he walked up the main street at the head of his followers he was, of course, the “observed of all observers,” and he bowed slightly to every little knot of persons he passed on his way to the barracks, where he ate and slept during his stay in the village. He is a rather tall, very straight and well featured man in the prime of life, andshis plain dark uniform sets ofl‘ his good figure to advantage and gives him avery soldierly appearance. The address,.though earnest and well delivered, was somewhat of a disappointment, as there was scarcely anything in it that his audience had not heard or read before; but, as the Commandant observed, it was difficult for him to speak of an organization of which his father was the originator and with which he himself is so closely , identified. There was a collection at i attempted to be madeâ€"is opposite the McArthur House but on the other side of the street; and Mr.Jackett says that before he erected it, a month or so ago, he was under the impression, from a conversation he had with two members of the council, that they would favor a grant of $50 if the fountain were left unenclosed and free to all, but at their next meeting the council offered him $25, which he would not accept. Mr. Jackett has been unfairly treated by the farmers and townspeople who prom- ised to pay for the water and now refuse or neglect to do so, and we think the simplest way out of the trouble will be for the council to buy him out, if he will accept a fair sum, extend the sys tom, and assess those who benefit by it to the extent that is found nonessary.

The question as to whether the old Presbyterian church is to be purchased by the municipality appears to have been settled in the negative, as nota ‘word was said about it at the council meeting on Monday night, and in its place has arisen the question as to what is to be done about the supply of drink ing water brought down by Mr. Jackett from the spring at the head of Colboruc street. Owing to the fact that there ate very few wells south of Bond street, and that in some of those few the water is of an inf'criorquality, it was proposed some years ago that the council should do what Mr. Jackett has done, but a vast majority of the residents of the well watered region " kicked,” and said great deal worse) before they would submit to be taxed for what would be of no benefit to them; and, as the at- tempt to raise money by subscriptions met with but little success, the project fell through, and had water was drunk. or good water carried long distances, as before. But last year Mr. Jackett, who is of an enterprising and speculative turn of mind, figured out that he could make money by supplyith good drink- ing water to those who needed it, if the council Would give him permission to lay pipes underground alongr the side of Colbornc street. The required permis- sion having been given so readily and unconditionally that. many ratepayers found fault with the members of the council for their complnisancc, Mr. Jackett went to work and, in spite of all obstacles (including a lawsuit), brought his enterprise to a successful issue, and triumphantlyverifiva his pre~ diction that the water would run as freely in tvintt-r as in summer, and - a 1 er throuuh nd r l ' . . . . .

Fer some time past Cau- ndian cheese has been in very high repute upon the English market, but the very reverse is the case as regards Canadian butter;. and the difference is *a-ttribntable to the fact that the cheese is turned out of factories, where it is made in large quantities upon scientific from tens of thousands of farm-houses, the inmates of some- of which are too y- good article, while the inmates of others don’t know how. Of course, before butter can be profitably exported. it will have to be made of uniform quality in cream- crics (the number of which is rapidly increasing), but, unlike cheese. the quantity required for home consumption will probably always be made at home, as the necessary appliances are few and cheap and the maths operandi very simple; yet, from want of the knowl- edge imparted by the travelling dairy, farmers’ families all over the Dominion anoint their daily bread with barely palatable grease, instead of with butter fit to~set before a king, and that would not. cost a fraction of a cent more per pound. Go to the travelling dairy meet ing, where you will get a great deal of valuable information free of charge; if you don’t make use of'it afterwards it will be your own fault. l Village Court of Revision and Council Proceedings. â€"_â€".
