Somerville Fall Fair Prize CATTLE. SHEEP. List --Mr. Thos McMurchy, a prominent Nottawasaga farmer recently returned from the Northwest. where he spent two months in viewing the country, most of that time being spent at Indian Head. His report of that country may be sum- marized as follows :-So far as grain is concerned wheat is the farmers’ god; land is hard to plow, but barrows down as fine asdust; good drinking water is scarce; hired men are worked very hard in harvest time; farmers’ idea and hope of getting along are big; six hundred acre fields of wheat are common; wheat is 55 cents a bushel, patatoes ‘51 a bushel, hut- â€"About six o'clock Friday morning, F. J. Daly of Orillia, was aroused from his peaceful slumbers bv the breaking of glass in the window of his bedroom at the Daly house. Imagining someone had thrown a stone through the pane, he was on hie feet in a twinkling, with an angry glitter in his eye. He felled to find the stone, but what he did find was a plump full-sized partridge fluttering around the room in an apparently exhausted condi- tion. the bird having evidently been seek- ing refuge from a pursuer of some kind, probably a hawk. The fowl was captured and cared for, but died from the effects of its collision with the window four hours later. The next sale was set for Friday the 27th inst. BUYER WHITTON CLEARED THE BOARD HE GOT x409 CHEESE FOR 1': 5-8â€" NEXT SALE ON THE 27th. Cheese sold a trifle lower at Friday‘s sale. There were 1435 boxes on the board and Buyer Whitton got them all but the 40 boxes that salesman Clancy cf the Pine Grove factory refused to sell. The bidding began at Ill with Buyers Whitton, Fi'Z' geruld and Flavelle in their places. By Sixteenths it reached 113;: and three or four calls were refused. Buyer Fitzgerald moved an adjournment for one week and his mate Whitton discoursed plausibly on the depressed condition of the market as evidenced by sales at other places. Ad- journment was being seriously discussed when Mr. Lytle of the Watchman-Warden whose purchase at the preceding Board had caused quite a ripple and some wrath, entered. The bidding was again opened and the newcomer made it 7-16. The Well- man’s Corners man suddenly saw that the product was worth g and when his rival said 9-16 he saw that E was not too much to pay. At this price he cleared the Board with the exception named above.

Protect Your 0rd§‘"‘?§£~. Wherever forests have been cleared ofi, there should be some shelter provided, behind which the fruit trees may be pro- tected from winds that blow ofl the fruit before it is ripe. b‘uch sheltered places have generally a moist soil, as they have received a. larger proportion of the leaves that, as autumn frosts leo'sen them. are biown everywhere. soil, preventing the deep freezing that would injure tree roots, and keeping the soil moist, friable and fertile at all sea- sons.

There is very little manurial value in forest leaves, and that is mainly in the potash they contain.

District Notes For Dressing Fow'ls. -â€"A lad named Albert Finkley, of 14 Atkin-ave., Toronto. was Thursday after- noon almost worried and torn to death by a couple of dogs in a neighbors yard. The little fellow was playing with the annimals. when all at :nce they became vicious, and began to tear at him in earnest with their teeth and paws. When help came the boy was in a very alarming condition. having suffered greatly from his wounds, and from the loss of blood_ Dr. McConnell was hastily summoned, and was obliged to put about 20 stltchss in the many tears which the dogs had in- flicted on the lad’s temple, face and arms. Young Finkley is in a critical state. I â€"An Ottawa man has invented a self ‘ acting pump. intended for pasture fields. and it is said to be an article of positive utility. The difliculty of supplying water to live stock in many pistures is well un- derstood and where there is no spring many persons decline to send their horses out to grass in summer. The inventor claims to have overcome the difficulty by having his pump. a new automatic work- ing invention. set on a platform, upon which the animal must stand, and as each walks into the enclosure and steps upon the plank, fresh water is brought up from the well and falls into the drinking re ceptacle. â€"Mr. S. 0. Phillips, a leadlng pub- lisher of London. made the following statement, which is of interest to Cana- dians: “Many of our paper manufac- turers who have used the pulp on a large scale, state most emphatically that it is longer and stronger in fibre than the Scandinavian product, and fitted more for making reel newspaper for fast runnlng work than any other, and more than one of these gentlemen have stated that they would rather give $2. 50 per ton more for the Canadian than any other. | â€"Mrs. Emily Smith, an aged lady from Port Elgln, Ont., put up at the Belcham- bar house, Sarnia, Thursday, was assigned to a room and retired, but before doing so evidently blew out the gas. Friday morn- ing her body was found in bed, cold in death, with the gas turned three-quarters on and the room full of the deadly fumes. The woman was on her way to Duluth to visit a daughter and had left an order with the clerk to be called early to catch a boat. â€"The Canadian Export Furniture Company, with a capital of $3, 000, 000, has been formed, and will build a large factory at Montreal for the export trade. â€"The population of Ottawa is shown by the assessors’ returns to be 57,002, an increase of 1 616 over last year. -The Grand Trunk railway half- -yearly report shows a net: improvement of £29, 752 ter 30 cents 3 lb. and eggs 25 cents a. doz; long distances in Ontario are regarded as there out there, there are no thistlea, wild out: or potato bugs sh Indian Head, but they are in Manitoba and will surely push westward.
