Lane, of Oakwood, Mariposa, who has been visit- ing his industrious and respected tenant, Mr. John Congdon, near Trvone. We were glad to hear of Mr. Lane’s success in farming in Mariposa. For three years past he has raised about 40 bushels of fall wheat to the ante and this year he has had remarkable success with the “English Wonder" pea. He got four bushels of seed from Mr. Sculchrop. Port Hope. last spring which yielded him 45 bushels 5lbs of marketable peas which he sold at $1.70 per bushel or $611.15. Not a. bad record, eh 'l chommx GAMEâ€"Last week Mr. Holland shot a wildcat in his woods. On Thursday morning he sent it to the tax. idermist. While the section men were working up the track a few days ago they saw another. hit. Dennis killed a. raccoon near the railroad track one day last week. It is very seldom that either of these species of animals is seen in these parts. NOTES.â€"-â€"The farmers in this vicinity are hustling at present with their fall ploughing and root crop, as winter is seemingly near at hand. But the best of it all is to see the rivalry amongst the neighbor in order to know who has drawn the largest load of lumber from Howry Sons yard. So far Mn. Jno. Bates has beaten the record, taking nearly 4,000 feet. Next we would be pleased to hear from is the his: team, the gray and black. Trust Will 0. will give us the desired information.

Form- erly it was fixed in the form of a, pel- let to one of the legs of the flyer but if the messenger chance to loiter in a mud puddle to cool his feet the mes- sage suffered. The up- -to- date method is to place the message in a. quill and fix- ,lt securely to the central tail teeth bf- the bird. The message is usuallfir written in ink on tissue paper. ”be mm mm. thin: to “VIM-"r WE: WANT is a daily mail at M; . Horeb. Why can’t the people of Mt.

Il.‘he Champion Long-Distance Flyer o! the United States. The United States Government is about to establish a. pigeon messenger service between Goat Island and the Farallon Isles. They ought to be of value to the men on guard on the gull- circled islands, for during good weath- er a trained pigeon will fly successively over the same general route at a. speed of forty to fifty miles per hour. In fact. the remarkable speed of seventy miles per hour has been made. Moreover. the messenger can be relied on to reach home in all'kinds of weather. Pigeons trained for flying over the land have frequently made from 400 to 500 miles in one flight, and it is reasonable to suppose that they may be trained to fly about 400 miles over water. The ordinary flights should prove more re- liable over water than over land, be- cause the messenger cannot be tempted to loiter with other pigeons or to stop for food. . Will Upset the Cycle Trade. A change in cycle construction al- most as radical and revolutionary as the safety and pneumatic tire is about to be made. The Pope Manufacturing company will put out a chainless bicy- cle 11L xt year, and two of the models for 1897, one for men and one for wo- men, will be operated by.bevel gears instead of the usual chain and procket. Several of its experimental machines have been running about Hartford for a considerable time. It is said that one of the gears has been run 39,000 miles Without wear or readjustment, and that several of the more recently constructed ones have been tested over 2,000 miles of the roughest road without mishaps and without a sign of; wear on the gears or need of ad- justment. 7 While the Pope Manufacturing Com- pany does not see fit to announce at this time the exact form in which it will use the bevel gear, a, glance at the cut accompanying this article will give a fair idea of the thing. The usual crank'shaft carries instead of the ordinary large 'sprocket, a bevâ€" elled gear of suitable size, meshing with which is a smaller gear, the haft of which passes either through or over the right rear fork; the rear end of this shaft carries another small gear which meshes into a corresponding gear on the rear hub, instead of the usual rear sprocket. At each end this shaft is carried on ball bearings, which are arranged in such a. way that wear " n-ov- v- - AT THE FAIRâ€"Mr. Jas. Bushell. with his popular road horse, took‘ in the Bethany fair for the last one this season, and secured two red tickets to his credit. This makes six first prizes for him this season, never being beaten at Lindsay, Peterboru, Mill Brook, Omemee and Bethany. We may also mention that Mr. Busheil has refused in the neighbor- hood of $200 for his horse. This is the kind of horses to breed- SNOW FALLâ€"On Saturday night there fell about three inches of snow, making it; veg much like winter. 7 BLACKSMITH â€"M1: Richmd Morton intends leavhw here and going to Bethany.

Previous to this. he had Conducted a gen- eral store in Haliburton village. He was a most industerious merchant, and by too close application to busmess shattered his health. He leaves a wife and a family of seven children, among them Michael, the noted boy-singer of Toronto. Much swmathy is felt. for the bereaved family. Tne deceased was buried in the Halibut- ton cemetery on Friday, ing the 14th. inst, and did not. again awaken on earth. Death came shortly after four o’clock in the afternoon.

Darby, the subjecr. of illustration, is the champion long-distance flyer of the Unitgd States, having beaten all re- cords by making the journey from Pen- sacola, Fla... to Fall River, Mass., in twenty-six days. a long-winded President’s message to Congress could be readily transmitted. When the paper is tighthy rolled and put in the quill a red-hot needle is used to puncture the quill at both ends. The openings are tightly stitch- ed together with silk and usually seal- ing wax is put over the silk. Every homing pigeon bears an anklet of al- uminum. It is slipped over the foot when the bird is very young.

THE WATChMAN, LINDSAY‘ THURSDAY. OCTOBER 22ND, 1896. New Theory tr" Hurrah-nun. An English physician has discover- ed. that sunburn is produced by pene- trating light rays and not by heist at all. The face of a victir-‘o. of sunburn is not only swollen, but pitted. and at the bottom of each pit the micro- scope discloses a freckle. The phyâ€" sician who has made this interfisting discovery claims that sunstroke can be averted by wearing a hat and clothes of an orange hue. No remedy is found to be so satisfactory as the use of pig ments. A lady who Wore a blouse with red and white stripes had red stripes imprinted on her shoulders by the sun underneath the White, while the skin under the red atripes remain- ed normal in color.

Wheat has taken an upward bound; our gold and other mines are being opened up; and foreign capital is beginning to come in. There is a. much better outlook for every industry, farming among the rest. In Manitoba the farmers are jubilant; from 65 to 70 cents is being paid for wheat, and many‘expect to see the dollar notch reached. At Neepswa the other day as high as 93c was paid by rival firms. The Lindsay markets will no doubt soon feel the effects of this boom, and wheat will begin to come in with a rush. Fall wheat is now qoted here at 80c, fife 780, spring 75c and goose 63c. Oats have aqunced to 22c. Below is the corrected price list : A co anion should catch the foot and stea 'ly pull it. This amateur oper- ation is painful, but infallible. When the little cap slips to its place, then two splints of wood should be placed at either side of the knee and a tight ban- dage of cloth wrapped stiffly about itâ€" a handkerchief serving admirably. If it is necessary to walk home, the pain, as well as common sense, will teach to throw no weight on the injured limb. When home, he should have strong mas- sage and strips of adhesive plaster put around the knee, holding the trouble some bone pan in place.
