LINDSAY, ONT., THURSDAY, AUGUST 4th, 1904 10c rode in the procession which follow- ed the Sylvester, band to the market park. There the mayor read the fol- loWing address of welcome : To the Old Boys of the county of Victoria. I rejoice that it has fallen to my lot, during my occupancy of the po- sition. of mayor of the town of In’ndâ€" say, to have the pleasure of extmd- lug/to you in my official capacity, a right, royal, hearth welcome back to your old town and your old county._ On Hominy morning the regular and a doubleheader Special train' were heavily loaded with the homec‘omere. Mayor 800th and the alderman were in carriages at the station, and Permit me to say that no other act) of mine since occupying my position has afforded me as much pleasure as this present one. I can assure you that your old friends have watched with pride, tho‘sucocss that has comd to the Old Boys of Victoria county in all walks of life and in almost every quarter of the 310150. Where- uses but with . a heartiness and cor- diality that are :‘far more potent than ‘ effusiveness, were the" visitors received. The town was in gay at- tire, but transcending all adornment of motto and bunting must have been for the homecomers the spontaneous The advance-gum of the invasion arrived on Saturday night, and Kent- st owed urn-unusual aminaflon to the pregence of and greetings accorded to quite a sprinkling of former citizens of the town. and universal good-will and aflection with which they were greeted. 9 They came into that own and their. own received them. On Monday Lindsay was the host of an hostâ€"viz: the Victoria County Old Boys’ Association of Toronto, whose members for the first time made; 941‘ organized visit to the town. To the pride arising from the suc- cess and achievement of the men and women whomjt and this; coupty havd given to the provincial capital, Was on Monday added, for Lindsay, the gratification of looking into the fac- es of .and graSpi-ng in handclaSp, thin splendid multitude. And these pri-x vileges the town embraced in no half- hearted 4way. Without undue effusiveâ€" ever you have gone you have done credit to your old county. In sport. in commerce, in agriculture, in the halls of learning and on the battle fields of the Empire, you have taken a prominent and an' honorable po- sition, and in your sucCeeecs, we whq have stayed within the borders of the county, have rejoiced. You went from our. midst and you have taken part in the world's pro- ln other places; we trust that that on this you return, the many changes, the mung .improvemonts, the! evidences of prosperity and growth, will impress 'you that we. who have stayed at horns. have been doing our part to keep the old town and coun- ty in a iommout place unong tho towns and counties of our land.

It would be impossible for us here to get pienty of men to thm' with by changing works, as we have so much threshing to do. In Ontar- io when the farmer expects-the . men Mr. Gillis would not advise a man in Ontario to ball a good form and go to the Northwest ; neither would I; nor would I advise a man here wit!. a. good (an to cell and go to Ontario. I think, Mr. Gillis’ idea of the Northwest is vague. Probe}:- ly it he' had spent. at least six months here in place of the short space- ot-one marl: he would have retained with a dinerent impression.

Ithinkflthe far- mers of Ontario reckoned their cost: of thmehing from the stock to the putting of the grain in the sacks, they would find it equally as high as tothreah. hekmsalamb; herewo kill a beef and eat it too. Then shy! here are quite difierent. from what Hr. Gillis thinks they are.

I agree with Mr. Gillis as to the waste he refers to. in not having Im- plemwt sheds and not. hauling out the manure onto the fields. although several of our farmers draw direct (ram the stable to the field in the winter. A binder with us lasts sev- an! ”in longer thin three or four yearn. and even 3.: Ir. Gillis puts the life of a binder here (hm or {on years it cuts as macho during, that time as the average binder in On- eario does in ten years.

Now if he can do unar- a. good cash business and any credit they give the farmer, if they didn’t think him good for it, to be sure he wouldn’t get it.
