One or the most notable sales was that of a Jersey bull to a New Zealand man, who had the animal crated and shipped across the continent and the Pacific by express. The everâ€"growing demand for music in the community has left its mark on the fair. The piano, phonograph and other musical intrument dealers have had a record year for sales, and many people who are noky thinking about buying some instrument or other that they saw at the exhibition will: doubtâ€" less decide eventually to buy. In the automobile building, the busiâ€" ness done has been remarkable, and the number of cars sold exceeds that of any other year, ‘That it has been many times worth exhibiting is the genâ€" eral opinion of all those who showed cars at, the exhibition this year. Although the sales made in the Pure Eood building are mainly in the line of samples, customers~ buying darge quantities have been numerous, and it is understood some large wholesale orâ€" ders have been given. ‘The exhibitors in this building expect to feel more than anyone the beneficial results of their displays, when the fair is over and during the year to come. In the case of some of the bigger articles that are for sale, such as enâ€" gines, machines, etc., a strong list of "*prospects" has been obtained by the exhibitors and sales are bound to acâ€" crtue from a certain (percentage of these prospects. Although no exact figures can as yet be arrived at, it is. considered by those closely connected with the indusâ€" trial part of the Canadian National Exhibition that sales amounting to milâ€" lions of dollars have been made during the last fortnight as a direct result of exhibits at the great fair, and that many more will materialize as an inâ€" direct result of these same exhibits. = With the close of one of the greatest exhibitions ever held in the city of Toâ€" ronto there commences the usual sumâ€" ming up, We find that some good has been derived from this exhibition so far that as a result of the Fair there will be millions of dollars worth of goods sold. t Exhibition Has Been a Great Means to Presenting Goods â€" to Public Detailed work of the Etobicoke ITwp.

We have tried to be progressive, and at the same time to give the citizens thrifty, economical government. Further, L want to say that the manner in which the estimates have been submitted by Mr. Musson, our clerk and treasure, is most gratifying and only emphasizes the wisdom of our selection in that official. Mrs. Hervyey Coon _ and daughters? wish to thank all the friends for their| kind sympathy and help, and for the' flowers, during their )recent sad beâ€"l reavement, | The estimates are submitted by Asâ€" sessment Commissioner Harry Musson are as follows: High School levy, 11.43; Public School, 7.14; Public Library, 0.73; County levy, 5.2; town rate, 4.88. The Utilities Commission includes the High School debentures of 12 mills. With Mayor Elyun presiding and barely a quorum, the Weston Town Council struck the long deferred tax rate and by dint of strict economy and the elimination of all fads and frills, succeeding in getting the tax rate down to 42 mills, or a reduction of L »mill on the $. The result was not arrived at without considerable pruning, and the Mayor made it very clear that an era of economy must reign in relation to the town‘s finances. While some of the estimates are reâ€" duced, there is an appreciable increase in the high school rate, due to the big building program undertaken by the board during the year. The, major portion of this under existing arrangeâ€" ments is borne by the province.
