This 1s the first silo in this neighborhood. â€"â€"Wednesday evening Messrs. Wm. Johnston, of Belleville, and O. Higman, of Ottawa, government electrician, visit- ed Lindsay for the purpose of testing the electric light, meters, etc., and as we go to press the tests are in progress. These tests are made every five years, unless a demand is made for a special test, in which case if the system is at fault the company bears the expense, but if found all right then the applicant pays the piper. We are indebted to the two capable oflicials mentioned above for a full and complete explanation of the system of testing, but as the language used was very technical, we are afraid if we attempted to put it in print our readers would know about as much as the reportersj present did when they left the room. One important point Mr, Johnston explained was that very frequently when consumers are swearing at the service rendered by the electric light company, and raising Cain over the ’phone because the lights are dim, the trouble lies in the fact that the burners are used up and should be renewed. In other words, ‘to sum up, if you don’t get good light. have the burner or glass bulb removed and a new one put 1;: its place. The glasses are always dim and smoky looking when the carbon is exhausted. £1131, 1 MAHOODâ€"BICK.â€"On the 8th, at the resi- dence of the bride’s father, Thos. Bick, Bobcaygeon, by the Rev. S.

Whichever plan is adopted the plants should receive great Wm-“ _ __ wuvr-vâ€" __- ‘ care, to prevent them from suflering in any we , which they are very apt to do if not ooked after, because in order to keep the plants stocky they need to be grown in exposed positions and not alâ€" lowed very much g3: room till they are put into their iting pots, Which would be about 10 inches in diemeter.
