May l7.â€"Fultons Mills a small hamlet a few miles north of Harriston is in deep grief to-night, the cause being a shooting accident. which has robbed I‘homas Burton. of his fourteen-year-old daughter, Pearl. Her brother Sam playfully it is said, picked up a loaded rifle and shot her in the mouth at close range. She died instantly The Coroner has been nonified by Chief Constable E. Johnston, of the case, and it is likely an inquest will be heard. The young nun!) who did the shooting is aged 16 He claims that he knew the rifle was loaded, and had forgotten. Immedi- sately after the accident he became . distracted with grief, and frantically rupbraided himself. The loss of their bright daughter is a severe blow to the parents who are lifelong residents here. There are fears that the broth- ‘er who did the shooting is irrespon- :sible.

Arrange- ments have been made so that freight rates from Ontario and the East will be paid on all exhibits that are re- turned to the original point of ship- ment. Auction sale system spreading. The auction system of marketing live stock advocated by Live Stock Com- missioner, Ottawa, seems to be gain- ing ground steadly and surely. This month at Calgary nearly four hund- red head of purebred cattle have gone under the hammer at the sale con- ducted bv the Territorial Breeders’ Associations. and several district sales are being established in Ontario. The Scugog Agricultural Society and the Port Perry Board of Trade are now arranging for an inportant sale to be held at Port Perry on June 16th 1904. These sales will be held at in- tervals. and if sufiicient encourage- ment is extended to them. they will probably be held monthly to sell by auction of all kinds of farm animals, including stockers, fat stock, dairy cows. pigs. etc. Several very promi- nent breeders of purebred stock are consigning excellent animals to the first sale. and persons desiring to contribute either purebreds, stockers, milch cows or pigs may obtain partid culars from the Secretary. Mr. J. H. Brown, Port Perry. A number of buyers from Toronto Stock Yards will be on hand. This will be a great convenience to the farmers and stock raisers of the district, bringing the buyers and sellers together for dis- posing of surplus stock. In England and Scotland nearly all stock is sold in this way in the market towns on stated days, which proves a great ad- vantage to the seller and convenience to the buyer. And the kittens purred as soft as they could. “And what do you do when children are bad? When they tease and pull ?” Each kitty looked sad. "Pooh !” said their mother. "That isn’t enough; You must use your claws when chil- dren are rough.” “And where are your claws? No. no. my dear, ” As she took up a paw. “See They’re hidden here. ” 1 Then all the kittens crowded about, To see their sharp little claws brought out. felt quite sure they never should need To use such a weaponâ€"oh no. indeed! But their wise mamma gave a pusy’s They “pshaw. "’ And boxed their ears with her softest paw. "Now ‘sptss’ as hard as you can,” she said ; But every kitten hung its head. “Sptss i” I say,” cried the mother cat; But they said. “O mamma. we can’t do that.” “Then go and play," said the fond mamma; ° What sweet little idiots kittens are!

Live Stock Commissioner, pointed out to the annual meeting of the Associa- tion of Fairs and Exhibitions the utter inemciency of many of the agri- cultural societies of Ontario. and uu-i folded a systematic plan of improve- ment. be was looked upon by many of the delegates as a dangerous icon. oclast. The fact that fairs which received government grants were in- tended to be educational seemed to be almost forgotten, and the proposal to arrange the fairs in convenient cir- cuits and send them expert judges who would give educational addresses in thering was considered impractic- able hy many. Still the project was taken up in an experimental way and the results have been so satisfactory that this year it 18 expected that about 170 agricultural societies in Ontario will arrange with the pro. vincial Department of Agriculture for the services of expert judges, iLast year 152 societies in that pro- vince were supplied with judges, while the other provinces and the Territories many of the fairs had ex- pert iudges furnished by the local and Dominion Departments of Agri- culture. The fruit crop. The replies to in- quiries by the Fruit Division at Ot- tawa concerning the injuries done by frost and mice indicate that the loss from these causes this year will be very serious indeed. The injuries from mice Will amount to 25 per cent of all nursery stock and young trees under {our years of age in Ontario and Quebec. The Maritime Provinces suffered to much less extent. Brit- ish Columbia escaped almost entirely. Little or no precaution was taken anywhere to prevent the ravages of mice. The damage by frost, though ex- ceedingly serious in Ontario and Quebec. will not effect to any great extent the amount of fruit put on the market this year, except in the case of plums and peaches. Apples and pears were seriously injured along the northern border of the fruit belt. The Bald win. Greening. Ontario. Spy end Blenheim have been killed in places where they are usually con: sidered hardy. Top-grafting only very slightly increases the hardiness of the variety. None of the large apple-producing sections were serious 1y injured. The Flemish Bounty Pears again proved one of the herdieet of good varieties. In both npple and peer orchnrds the trees anfiered much less from frost and more from mice when grown in eod or cover crop. Plums were killed in some of the‘ heavy plum-producing sections. and in all probability the buds are so ser- iously injured everywhere us to rend- er ; heevy crop this year improbable. The reports from the Essex peach district show s damsge spprosching that of 1899; 50 per cent of the, trees will be killed outright. The Nisgsrs district is not so severely injured. The Crswford type proved psrticnlsr- ly tender. 'Cberriee ere eleo injured severely in bud. Smell fruit. escaped with lees injury.
