At their meeting on Friday evening last Corona Lodge of the Independent § Order of Oddfellows decided to ecle- brate Civic Holiday, as the Public Library, which has held celebrations on ' that day for a few years past, had come to the conclusion not to have any demon- stration this year, 'The Oddfellows' have already made arrangements for at- tractions for the day, and will add to and complete their plans between now and the date set, August 9th, which is also Lindsay‘s civic holiday. It is exâ€" pected the brethren of that town will run an excursion. The Lindsay band will be present. There will be baseball and football matches, water sports in- which Bloomfield, the famous trick canoeist, will participate, a street parade, and sports in the park. Messrs F. Ruther- ford and A. Fountain will run a hundred yards race for $10, the latter giving a handicap of ten yards to his opponent. The Oddfellows are pushing the celeâ€" bration arrangements energetically, and a big day on the 9th_of August may con- fidently be expected. _ Rural Telephone. The following letter from Mr. Sam. Suddaby, of Burnt River, who is the pie- neer in rural telephone lines in this neighborhood,- appeared in the last issue “There is nothing a. farmer can do that will pay as much in added conveniences as to have a telephone in his house. In helping out in cases of emergency, and in pure satisfaction in the knowledge that he has a means of instant communi- cation not only with his neighbors but with every part of the country, it is in- valuable. Our company was started by a gentleman here who got a notion that a telephonc would be agood thing, and canvassed until he. got a few subscrib- ers; then a meeting was called, and a few simple rules were adopted (no long and an application was made to the Gov- ernment of Ontario for a charter.- This can be got through the department of the Provincial Secretary, who will furnâ€" ish all fol-ms required. If there are ten or twelve who have the money and will put it into an enter- prise of that kind, it will ultimately pay a fair profit, and is more easily handled than a large company. We have seven directors, though I think live would be enough. Olliccrs are Secretary and Treasurer, and the President, who is chosen by the Board of Directors from among themselves; these form the ex- ecutive head of the company. The total cost of each telephone in- stalled would depend very largely upon the nature of the country, the cost of poles, labor etc.- ch' have only 19 tele- phones installed, and for that we have in lines and branches '35 miles of wire (metallic circuit), about 23 miles of poles and one switch-board, costing about $2,200, besides the telephones,- say $125 per phone. We expect to put in several more phones on the same lines, but you will understand that, in a more thickly populated part of the country, and when men get more awake to the advantages of telephone connection, the initial cost- per phone Would be much less. We have hardly had enough experience to enable me to give cost of maintenance. Shareholders paying cost of their own ’phones are charged six dollars per year, payable quarterly in advance. Phones are rented for twelve dollars per year ; casual messages 15 cents for conversa- tions of three minutes, if transferred to the Bell Telephone Company‘s lines ; if on our own lines, only 10 Cents for each conversation. These char es are to be collected by the person w 080 ’phone is being used by the “ caller " “and paid over to the secretary monthly.- . The most we have now on one circuit or party line is nine, but we could ac- commodate about twenty-five on ten or twelve miles of wire. I don't think it would be wise to put more than twenty- five‘ on one circuit,- on account of so much ringing, but, with good instru- ments such as we have made by the Can- adian Independent Telephone Company. of Toronto, I have no doubt the service would be all right with thirty or more. 7 Our business is increasing, though not exceedingly fast, but still it is satis factory. We haVe connection with the Bell Tele hone at Fcnelon Falls. We have goat service, and most courteous and gentlemanly treatment by the em- ployees and officials of the company: but, you know, the company Won‘t have the worst side of the bargain. In fact. the sooner the Government take up th< Lug-distanco telephone basiness, tlu better. The advantages to farmers of having telephone privileges seem to me so ob- vious and so many, that I do' not know where to begin. I could fill a page with instances which haVe actually oecurei‘ where money has been saved and suffer ing avoided, and’in some cases life saved by having a telephone, and‘ it surprises me that more do not take adwntage of line for six dollars per year, telephones cccurred on Monday and succeeded in putting otherwise would certainly have destroy- ed all the buildings on /.the farm _on ‘ for Toronto, where he intends to reside. the opportunity of getting a telephone when it can be had for $12 per year. said that we give shareholders who pay for their telephones the. use of the This is a mistake, and if we had to commence again, we would make no distinction ; ,we would put all'tho .’phones at a rate per year, and make‘ tlre‘rate such as would pay expenses. On part'y line's I think 512 would be sullicient, especially if telephones were equipped with push buttons, so that subscribers on any line could call anyone on that line without the aid of the “ central." If you had in- dividual lines, so that some one would .have to‘ attend every call, the rental , would have to be greater.” An instance of the usefulness of rural last in. Scarboro township, when farmers from all over' the neighborhood were summoned to a fire‘ by means of the ’phone. when the blaze Was first noticed, out a fire that which it occurred.- Stone Crusher at Work. The stone crusher and grader belong- ing to the County of Victoria, and which has lately been in operation in Ops town- ship, was brought here orrTuesday. It weighs about eight tons, is driven by a twenty horse power traction engine, and will crush ten or twelve cords of stone per day. It was started to work on the pile of stone on May streetâ€"about forty cordsâ€"stored by last year’s council while dredging was going on at the canal. After being crushed,- tho stone will be left where it is for future use, and the machine moved up to near the railway bridge, where the stone being taken by the dredge from the channel of rectifrom the scows and loaded into waggons direct from the crusher and hauled on to the streets. The piece of -zoad between the Brooks House and the (.‘r. T. R. station, and the road be- tween Mr. Jas. Dickson's residence and Louisa street will be attended to first, and other portions later. The council contemplates using part of the May of cement walks, and will probably comâ€" mence at the south end of the iron bridge and lay a section nearly as far as the Brooks House.
