Mr. W. Stockley, of Toi'onto, vis- ited with the Thompson family over Victoria Day. Could those people in the west take a drive along the “old con- cession” roads and view the beau- tiful orchards, seldom, if ever seen with heavier blossom, and the many various and different kind of trees, each seemingly vieing with the other for beauty and grandeur, we feel sure none could hesitate to admit that for beauty and splendor, old Ontario takes the lead. 1 ' i The excessively fine warm days following up the heavy deluge of rain, is producing an excellent growth. The hay crop is almost an assured heavy prop, and ev- erything is simply looking beau- tiful. .1 ' Mr. and Mrs. Pete Black are en- Joymg a visit from their daughter, whose home is now in Toronto. Mr. Thos. Lawrence, and young son. of Toronto, spent the holiday with the former’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Lawrence.

Mr. and Mrs. James Tucker were over to Belgrave last Week. to be present at the bedside of the latâ€" ter’s mother, who is seriously ill.

Henry is 'one of the many progressive [fur- mers W8 keep in and around the Corners. The excessive amount of rainfall is becoming quite serious with many farmers on low land. Quite a few farmers west of this locality are simply at a standstill, as it is practically impossible to work on the land. The big snow storm last Monday, followed by the very hard frost at night, did considerable damage. It was particularly hard on the al- falfa clover, which 'was beginning to make a fine showing. Quite unexpected came the news of the death of Mrs. W. E. McAlister, who passed away pn Thursday last, after a very brief illness. We extend our sympathy to the devoted, bereaved husband and relations. The Grangers of Varney ordered :1 our lcad of salt in the fall )51311 to sow on their mangold and tur- nip land, with the Heat in mind of drawing moisture. It‘s drawing it all right, for it has rained every day since we sowed it on our man- We set the pace for the “Royal iCompany of Corn Growers. Limit- ed,” by finishing sowing our :corn on May 27th. Not too bad for your humble Weather-cock. Judging from the small number of lambs to be seen, with here and there quite large flocks of sheep, We feel safe in saying this is an of! year for lambs in this part,‘ which will mean dear mutton if the; shortage is the same in other; places. The chief reason is that{ sheep were in poor condition in the fall, owing to shortness of fodder. 01d ground. Write us, mentioning this paper and we will send you a sample box free.
