Ar- rangements have been made for cheap shipment of the beet, both by land and by water and, all told, the _ facts showed that there was no crop which would pay our farmers so well to grow. The deputation asked the council to appoint certain gentleman who would devote some time in the fall to going to the various farmers and having the beets tested both as to quantity per acre and as to the quality of the beet. This deputation also made a favorable impression. and a committee was appointed to have the matter thoroughly looked on the people of this part 0? Ontario.

A committee was appointed to confer with the hospital authorities and to report at the next sitting. In the afternoon a deputation. rep~ resenting the General and Marine Hospital, consisting of Rev. Mr. Ar- dill. Mr. Jas. McLauchlan and Dr. Cameron, waited on the council showing the claims that the hospital had on the county. The council was reminded of the good work done by this institution and that its work“ afl'ected not only the town but the; country as well. In other cities; wealthy individual donators helped such institutions by granting large: sums. But no such sums were being: brought forward in Owen Sound, and’ hence the greater need of councils; doing all in their power to keep this3 much-needed hospital in astate of: efficiency. Ministers had been noti-i fied of the hospital’s work from time to time, medical men had given liber-i“ ally, not only of their time, but of'1 their means as well; and now the;] h05pital authorities asked that their council pay 05 an indebtedness of: al-out four thousand dollars, which c still hung over the institution.
