Mr. Neil Gray has all the timber dressed with mortice and tenon lying in wait for each other to form a combine about the time fashionable weddings are announced to the public. Mr. Pat Clancy secured euficient timber from Mr. Porter of Mauvers to erect a frame barn after seeding. He has also been fortunate in securing Mr. N eil Gray, who never fails to give satisfaction in every instance. This structure will be 70x55 hip roof and will have for its foundation a 9â€"foot wall, which will be finished in the most improved manner to receive cattle for beef and dairy purposes.

WOOD VILLE I notice an article in the Post correspondence from Woodville about our weigh scales. Well, if all Wood- ville business men were of the same mind, as the correspondent, they might as well close up business. I certainly think that a weigh scale at our station would be a veritable boon for our village. We are in the midst of one of the best stock raising districts in Ontario, and there is not a doubt that if proper accommodation was afforded this would be the shipping centre. It is true that there has not been much stock shipped from here of late years, owing in a great extent to the want of scales. Let the business men contri hate to the erection of a good reliable scales, then do everything in their power to get as much shipping as possible done here, and in return they will find that for every load brought in by the farmers of this community a share of the proceeds will be left with our merchants for the neccessaries of life and some of the luxuries as well, for there is no class of people who like to live and let live better than the farmer. In all probability the correepondent of the Post, like our old scales, is not properly balanced. Mr. J. K. Parkln is becoming a pro- fessed violinist). Mr. T. Chambers spent Sunday evening in the south ward. Mr. Fred Hore is aboub to erect a new barn. Miss L. Woolacobt spent: Sunday with Scugog friends.

Carter, another Menilla boy, and who for several years carried on a very successful tallorlng business here. is at present with us and renewing old acquaintances. His unusually robust appearance gives ample proof of the belief that handling lumber is a more healthful occupation than swinging the steel bar. Mr. Bert. Bail left the home of hi; early youth to seek thu fortune in the domains of Uncle Sam. in the vicinity of Lockport. May he nob seek in vain. This is the second Manllla boy who has gone across the line lately, but we have no doubt: that they will soon learn “there’s no place like home.” Mr. Duncan Carmichael is the victim of a very serious case of blood-poisoning which resulted from a slight scratch or; the hand by coming in contacb with a piece of brass.
