The members of the Ontario Agricul- tural and Experimental Union are pleas- ed to state that for 1907 they are pre- pared to distribute into every township of Ontario material for experiments with fodder crops, roots, grains, grasses, clo- vers and fertilizers. About 2,000 varie- ties of farm crops have been tested in the Experimental Department of the On- tario Agricultural College, Guelph, for at least five years in succession, These consist of varieties from nearly all parts of the world, some of which have done exceedingly well in the carefully con- ducted experiments at the college, and are now being distributed free of charge for co-operative experiments through- out Ontario. The following is the list of co-operative experiments in agriculture for 1907 : . EXPERIMENTS. (The ‘ figure after each variety incli- dates the number of plots to be sewn with that variety.)

Each person in Ontario who wishes to ' join in the work may choose any ONE of the experiments for 1907, and apply for the same. The material will be furnish- ed in the order in which theyapplica- tions are received until the supply is exhausted. It might be well for each applicant to make a second choice, for fear the first could not be granted. All material will be furnished entirely free of charge to each applicant, and the pr..- duce will, of course, become the proper- ty of the person who conducts the ex- periment. C. A. ZAVITZ, Director. Guelph, March, 1907. ' A Pure In Verulam. On Monday evening last a fire occur- red on Mr. Henry Sproule's farm near Red Rock, in Verulam. Mrs. Sproule had gone, with her children, to visit her father, Mr. Lancelot J unkin, two or three miles distant; and about 7 o'clock Mr. Sproule went to the barn to attend to the live stock, before going to fetch his family home. Unfortunately, he placed his lantern on the floor too close to one of the cows, which kicked it over, and some hay or straw caught fire. After stamping it all out, (as he thought,) he hitched up his team and started for his father-in-law's ; but the fire was not out and the barn was in flames a short time after Mr. Sproule-let't. Some neighbors assembled as quickly as possible; but not soon enought to do any good. The building which contained the vehicles and implements stood near the house and escaped destruction; but the barn and some sheds were burned, together with the whole of their contents, which included nil e cows, two calves, and a grain. We regret to learn that but little of the loss is covered by insurance. ‘ . p v ‘ Our New Rector. We clip the following from the Ux- bridge Journal of the 14th inst. : “ Friendsdn; town will regret to learn that Rev. W. H. A. French, the energetic pastor of St. Paul’s church, has accepted the incumbency of the Anglican church at Fenelon Falls. The change will take placeshortly after Easter. Not only has Rev. Mr. French been faithful to his du- ties as pastor, but he has been active in keeping the choir in a state of efficiency. The people of Fenelon Falls will find 'Mr.‘,Fr.ench an acquisition to their so- cial, musical and'fraternal circles." mm Powles’ Corner. (Correspondence of the Guzetta.) Mrs.. D; S; Milloy is moving out to Mariposa Station, where Mr. Milloy has boomstation agent for-sometime. Mr. J ohn-S. Brown will take the management of the farms for an indefinite period; It is with regret that we report thede- parture-of.‘l\irs.,hfilloy and family. They will be missed; not only amneighbors, but as faithful workers-in-th'e church. Mr. Eli Hill lost the-best'cowdnhis stableoneani‘ght last week; tlie~animal having get hung; income way not. easily; explained: ' Aibreak-up of the roads will’come very: soon,,and1 everyone. is, gladdenedby the: appearance of spring. A_mceting of the ratepayers of this school section will be held in the school- house here on the evening of Friday next, the 22nd inst. Evory ratepayer should attend, as there is some more trouble in the school, and it is within the bounds of possibility that two of the trustees and the teacher will be asked to resign. __‘_~--. _.._.-.~_. _. .. Kinmount. (Correspondence of the Gazette ) Mr. Edward McKenzie, of Beaverton, formerly a resident of this place, was here for a couple of days last week. Messrs. John Dunbar and Thos. Hardy are visiting, the former's parents here. Much sympathy is felt for Mr. and Mrs. Edward King in the loss of their youngest child, a little girl about two years old, who died on Thursday of last week On Wednesday, the filth inst, Mr. Isaac Lyle, of Kinmount, and Miss Young, of Burnt‘ River, were quietly married at the Parsonage, Rev. A. Cum- mcr officiating. Craig & Austin's mill commenced ope- rations on Monday of this week. . ._..........4..........__‘... ... GIVING UP BUSINESS.â€"â€"Mr. D. J. Collis, watchmaker and jeweller, has decided to discontinue his business in the Falls, and will close up about the middle of l April. CONCERT.â€"â€"-Tlle concert given in Two- mey's hall on \Vednesday evening, in aid of the building fund of St. John's church, Rosedale, was fairly well attended, a good many coming frOm that village and vicinity. The various numbers were Well rendered, and the tableaux were very .pretty, giving evidence of much care in preparation. SOLD AGAIN. â€"â€"Not long ago Mr. F. Mc- Dougall sold the “ Syndicate Farm," just outside the village, to M r. Johnston Patâ€" terson, who resold it, the other day, to Mr. John Aldous for $0,000. We “ mind the time " when less than half that sum would have bought it; but a whole lot of money has been spent upon it in im- provements since then. A BAD CUT.â€"â€"â€"On Wednesday afternoon Mr. James Robertson, recently a resi- dent of the Falls, cut his left foot badly with an axe, while working on the farm of his fatherâ€"in-law, Mr. E. Kendall, in Fenelon. The wound, which is deep and about two inches long, is just above the big toe. Dr. Wilson, to whom he was brought and who dressed the wound, says it will lay him up for sometime. PERSONALS.â€"-M rs. Dr. Gould left on Monday to spend a few days with rela- tives in Cambray ...... Mr. Harry Wilkin- son came home from Cornwall on Tuesâ€" day ...... Mr. Joe Ouilette is home again, the hockey season being over ...... Mr. J as. Dickson was away from home part of this week, doing some surveyingin the town- ship of Ops......Miss Nellie Worthington, of Uxbrirlge, has been visiting relatives at the Falls. BUIl.DING.â€"There will probabl y not be much building done in the village this season, but carpenters will be in demand in the surrounding country. The follow- ing farmers are preparing to build : Wm. Graham, Sturgeon Point, barn 50 x 100 ; W. A. Ellis, Bethel, barn 45 x 55 : D. Mc- Farland, Bethel, barn 50 x 60; John W. Junkin. Bethe], straw barn 45 x 50 ; John Knox, Bethel, horse stable 34 x 40 ; W. J. Thomas, Red Rock, born 45 x 00. ACCIDENT.â€"-â€"On Saturday last, Alma, the little daughter of Mr. Christopher Hodgson, of Burnt River, met, with a painful accident while on a visit to her grandâ€"parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Howie, at Fenelon Falls, by falling into a Small kettle of hot water that had been set .out to wash the floor with. Her right leg was badly scolded, in some parts so deeply that it will take quite awhile to heal completely. Dr. Wilson is in attendance. ST. JAMES' Cannonâ€"The Rev. A. J. Vale, curate of St. Paul‘s church, Lind- say, will take the services in St. James’ church, Fenelon Falls, and St. Peter’s, Vcrulam, on Sunday next, the 24th of March. Mr. Vale expects to leave in a short time to take up mission work in the far North-west, so this will probably be his last visit to this parish. On Easter Sunday the Rev. F. Barges, of‘Toronto, will~ conduct Communion service in St. James in the morning, and at St. Peter’s in the afternoon. K-ILLno Tunas Foxns.~â€"-The Lindsay Evening-Post of the 16th says: “ Yesterâ€" day was a goodday for fox hunting, al- though the uninitiated would be unlikely to think so, owing to the variable weath- er. Undeterrod by the blinding snow- falls at intervals, Jack Dickson whistled to his dogs after dinner and headed for RDutleyTs swamp, northwest of the town, and was joinedon the way by Messrs. McCabo and Tompkins, also of town. In, side of two hours the dogs routed‘out three foxes, which were killed in each instance after an exciting chase. If any of our readers feel sluggish and would like to limber up, we feel justified inad- visimg a fox hunt, on the strength-of, descriptions furnish by Joe Lytle and Jack Dickson." Aenxov VACANT.~- The Great-West Life Assurance Co. desiresvtosocure a live, active agent in Fenelon Falls and vicinity who can devote either his whole» or part of his time to workL Liberal terms-will.be given, to. suitable person who can secure a fair amount of business from this territory. The Great-West Life made in 1006 a. larger-increase in the amount of new insurance written, and also a. larger increase in the total insurance in force, than-any other Com~ puny operating in Canada., The lower premiums and higher guarantees, coupled with the very. satisfactory profits being paidtto policyholders, make it compar- ativelyeasy to secure business for this tr . ,up~to-date farm. . ‘ ' I 1 Company.

The present local team, most of whom are young boys, have been playing a good game lately, and, just to see what they could do in real fast company, arranged fora match with the “ old rcliables," who had on their lineâ€"up four of the old “terrors of the north," Deyman, Betcau, Gould and Gillette-some of the best hockeyists in Canada. The game was one of the fast, clean variety, and the youngsters showed up in a way that marks several of them terrors yet to come. Of course they were beaten, as they expected to be ; but the old timers didn't have a walk- over by any means, and had to Work for everything they got. The score at half time was a tie, 5-5, and at full time it was 11-8 in favor of the old reliables. District Notes. Mr. S. Nevison has resigned the posi- tion of chief constable of the town of Lindsay. The people of Omemoe and its vicinity are petitioning the Government to open Pigeon river for nay'lgation.

A black fox, one of the most valuable of the species, was recently killed in, Bryson‘s swamp, near Cambray station... For two days Messrs. B. B. Wailey and Fred Young had been on the animal's trail. It was finally shot with the aid of hounds belonging to M r. George Wellâ€" ington, of Lindsay. Mr. Wellington claimed the fox on the ground that it was through the exertions of his dogs hat the animal was captured. The mat- ter was finally settled by a division off the purchase price. The fur of the black. fox is in great demand, and a good skin' is valued at Shimâ€"Post.
