“A ‘y‘fip‘em s flaily capacity of 2500 barrels of flour and 2500 barrels of oatmeal, and several hundred barrels of pot barley, split peas, and other cereals, also is capable of turning out over In 1884 the grinding capacuy ihe mill was 175 bands per day, and then it ran only part time. Now it has a capacity of 600 barrels of flow and 150 of rolled oats. besides pot =barley. rolled wheat, and a large chopping trade. It runs day and night, and its total output exceeds a milliou and a half dollars a year. In the spring of 1900 the old chop- million and a half dollars a year. In the spring of 1900 the old chop- ping, mill was burned and the power house injured. During the summer a fine new brick mill was built and equipped at a cost of $10,000. This is devoted to chopping and the manuiacture of pot barley. 'A large export trade is done in rolled oats. These go to Liver-poof, London, England. Glasgow, Hol- land, Denmark, and Germany, and small shipments have been favorably received in St. Petersburg and ChriStiana.

It grinds 30,000 bushels of Manitoba hard wheat per month, and its flour competes successfully with the high- est grades of that made by the Lake of the Woods mills at Keewatin and the Ogilvie Milling Co. at Mont- real. In 1884 when Mr. J. D Flaxelle ' took charge of the business an 85.- l 000 bushel elevator was erected on the north shore of the river. A very large export. grain trade is done. ‘ The combined mill and elevator staff total 100 hands. On June lst, 1910 a sale was ef- iected and a. merger formed taking in thirteen mills, among which was the I-‘lavelle Milling Co.

This build- ing is commonly known in town as the egg house, and when the number of eggs that are shipped from it an- nually are considered, that seems a very appropriate name. But there are clustering about the place de- partments of other farm produce in such quantities as to threaten the supremacy of the egg business. In 1884 eggs were nrsn nnnui cu. The original idea was to gixe work in summer to the stafl that worked on the grain in winter. They were then handled in the old storehouse, soon after burned. Then the first part of the present imposing four-story building was erected. The business grew rapidly, as did the production of eggs throughout the country. The first market Was the United States, but after a short time the McKinley tarifl shut that market; then arrangements were made for shipping to England. Since then markets for these products have been opened up in British Columbia and the Yukon. The eggs are gathered throughout the country and put into brine in large vats that occupy the basement of the building. In the fall they are packed and shipped. There are bran- ches at Port Perry, Alliston, Lon- don and (Ihatham. Altogether over a million and a quarter dozen were shipped last year, a quantity not surpassed by any Canadian firm. The firm hae not overlooked the advance and bright prospects of the dairying industry in Canada. Mr. W. Flax-elle is a regular buyer on the local cheese board. and while his buying is not such as to discourage buyers who come from a distance. yet he always has a keen lookout on the interests of the farmers. He is careful to see that their product is not sacrificed and more than once has placed them under heaVy obliga- ‘tions by coming to the rescue when bids were holding low. His firm neVer loses an opportunity to give the farmers every possible advantage. The Hen Product Butter and Cheese were first handled. cleanest GROCERY STORE IN VICTORIA COUNTY Brightest largesfi The llrm's operations in poultry probably appeal the most strongly to the popular interest. It. was chiefâ€" ly with this trade in mind that the splendid culd'storage plant was in- stalled. Fourteen years ago they made a shipment of turkeysvto England in the feathers. It was not a, success. Next year the plucked birds paid no better. The lack of proper cooling facilities rendered the two following shipments scarcely more encouraging Then only ice was used. During the year 1900 an up-to-date cold storage was installed. In a snug little white brick building a‘ powerful condensing engine throbs almost noiselessly at the impulse of the electric current from Fenelon Falls. and forces the ammonia-laden blasts along piping to the very gar- ret of the big building nearby; There heavy fans force the arctic air of that chamber down through traps till it traverses the stories beneath. and chills their contents like the breath of winter. In these the mer- cury hovers about. 26, but, in one chamber it falls to zero. In this the pipes themselves appear clad in an inch of hoar frost, as their chemical (ontents rob the air of its \varrxlth. In this chamber. silent, electricâ€"lit, lice cooled, and frigid, are stored the (owls that are to be kept in stockâ€"- still and stark, frozen solid. ’l‘hat is the acme of cold storage. In the oth- er chambers thousands of turkeys bang to-day. Thousands have been Shipped, and as many more must yet he killed. In 1900 Mr. Howard (“1911105. who had managed the Port Perry branch of the produce business, was. taken into partnership in that department, and the lirm was incorporated under the name of Flavelles Limited. In 1904 Flavelles Limited took over the coal, lime and cement busi- ness of Mr. Robert Bryans. and Mr. Andrew Robertson was appointed manager of this department. Messrs. J. D. and Wm. Flavelle are men of exceptional energy and busi- ness ability, and public spirited citi- zens. whose advice. on civic matters is as much appreciated by the town as are the. great benefits that arise from their extensive operations. And this, the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of their niagniiicient busi- ness enterprise, we tOgether with the entire citizenship of the town and county, congratulate the Flavelle Bros. on their splendid success, and wish them its duplicate many times in years to come.

The expenses of school inspectors, SteVens and Broderick caused a great I deal of animated discussion Thurs- J day afternoon at the COunty Council. The detailed statement furnished by‘ both men of their expenses during the past nine or ten months was the basis on which an allowance was SUggested to be granted. The estimate previously had been $20. and $10. per month, respectively, but it was seen that it would be insufficient. Mr Ste- Vens had been at the expense of $422.- 51 for the past 10} months, which which would amount to $482.87 in an entire year. Mr. Broderick's expenses was much lower, since his work was ‘not among such distant rural schools *He had an account for $133.94 for 93 months, which would mean $161.19 for the year. Mr. Kylie said the Government ex~ pects their officials to make a. detail- ed account of their expenses and to have them paid regularly. On every- thing over $1 avoucher is produced. He thought it might be apphed in this case. Mr. McLean said since Mr. Stevens’ inspections are rural it would pay to buy a horse and outfit for his travel- 1mg. Mr. Stevens thought it would be better to hire a horse than to own one, as part of the time he had to drive the horse unnecessarily to keep it m condition, or pay livery barn uD-keep. He thought it better to take the train and hires. horse at the nearest point. Mr. Jordan didn’t believe in a voucher plan for the report of expenâ€" ses. The keeping of a. horse was out of the question. Mr. McLean wished that the ses be kept as low as possible. It was suggested that Mr. Stevens be allowed $400 and Mr. Broderick $150 for expenses during the year. Mr. Stevens thought he Was being docked too much. He, however, did not want to graft, but thought the county should pay the legitimate ex- penses. He didn’t want to go on at a loss for the honor of being School Inspector. It was then suggested that Mr Ste. vens keep a detailed account until the end of the year, when the matter will come up at the January session. Friday Morning. The educational committee contin- ued its session of last evening and reâ€" viewed their intentiOn af. allowing Inspector Stevens $35 per month and Inspector Broderick $13. amonth. A detailed’ statement of the remainder of the Inspector's expenses for the rest of the year was suggested to be asked for in addition. A year ago the Inspector was alâ€" lowed $6 per school and $250 a year for expenses of travel". The expenses the past year have likely been considerably larger than they will" be in future, as is nearly always the case in a new order of things. It was estimated that Mr. Stevens would receive at the rate of $4.50 per school and Mr. Broderick $4 for his rural schools. This did not seem fair to both men, so the settle- ment will be left until the January session, and all details are at hand. The Councillors, seeing that an ex- Warden, in the person of Mr. Taylor Pal-kin, was present, insisted that he be heard.’ Taylor Parkin was pleased to come to see the new men and renew friend- shxp with the old. There had been trouble in his time, and thought it Scott’s Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil with hypo- phosphites can do just this. It strengthens the nerves, feeds famished tis- sues, and makes rich blood.

He would never forget his friendship with them all. and hoped to keep their good will. This welcome speech closed the new and caused an adjournment un- til 10 o’clock Saturday morning. A COMPROMISE. Mr. Mulligan compromised with the council for an allowance of about $80 to help pay for the cxpensks incurred by keepingâ€" an indigent at Omemee from January to June of this year. Chairman Callan called his com- mittee on Roads and Bridges togeth- er for the final meeting of that body COUNTY NOT INVOLVED. The trouble over the guarding of the bridge at Norland during logging time was reviewed. but when matters were explained the Council did not consider itself involved. Mr. Corned said that the railing on Brown's bridge had broken down in several places, and there was a danger of rigs sliding into the water in icy weather. Mr. Hahkins will at- tend to it. Another question to come up was the fiuestion of remunerating Mr John Black for the expense and trouble of transporting his machinery " around the lake some \26 miles, while he could by crossing the supposed unsafe bridge save 20 miles. But as the bridge is uncondemned the Council refused the first amount, although Mr. Graham argued the case quite vigorously. Mr. Black wanted $75, Mr. Graham agreed to accept $50, Mr. Southern suggested $25, and the latter was car- ried. Ontario county must pay its share.

It cost the county in the neighborhood of $100. It was found that the stone crusher for the county cost $146.64 in expense and made a revenue of some $40, pre- sumably the price obtained for 100 cords of stone crushed this year. Mr. Kylie, who is managing it. considered it a white elephant on the County's hands. Most of the repairs had been caused by rough handling last year.

The fact that Crippen had previousâ€" ly determined there was no hope from the Home Ofice, is believed to have 1 enabled him to bear up so well yester- . day when informed that Churchill had I decided against him. gnuu ., wife-slayer. This was the decision yesterday of the Home Oflice. After a thorough review and investigation of the case. Home Secretary Winston Churchill announced that Crippen must hang as previously sentenced, on Wednesday. When Crippen was informed early yes- terday that his last hepe was gone he beirayed no emotion. ‘ #. -12--J Al..- 'lu’vu uv yâ€"uv---_, Crippen, however, had realized ear- lier that. there was no hope of clem- ency from the Home Ofice. and on Sunday issued a lengthy statement, which took three columns in a. Sun- day paper, reiterating his innocence and declaring that if he had unlimit- ed means at his command, as had the crown, he would not have been convicted. Additional expert medical testimouy, he said, would have shown that the body found under the Hill- drop Crescent house was not that of his wife, Belle Elmore Crippen, the actress. Conscious of his innocence. he declared he had kept up hope until the failure of his appeal, which he had been convinced would reverse the judgment of the court. That had over- whelmed and crushed him, as he had haped till the last of still being able to build up a home with the woman (Miss Lene-ve), without whom life was not worth living.

Crippen declared, it would have been an unexpected mercy, the first shown him since his trial began. For the first time since he has been in custody, Dr. Crippen broke down completely late yesterday, the cause being a visit to the Pentonville jail by Miss Leneve. the girl for love of whom Ctippen killed his wife. The meeting between the two was pathetic in the extreme, and a drama- tic forerunner of their final'meeting toâ€"day. Miss Leneve was the first to weaken yesterday. She began to weep, and at sight of her tears, all attempts at self-control on the condemned man’s part, were abandoned, and he gave himself over to the first tears he has shed since his arrest.
