The de- ceased lady, who was well known here. was about forty-five years of age. In March last, she was taken with appendicitis, and sent to the hospital. where an opera- tion was performed. She never recovered from its effects, but lingered on till Wednesday of last week, when her sufferings were ended by death. Besides her sor- rowing husband, two sons and one daughter survive, the youngest being nine years of age. Inter- ment took place in Toronto on Friday last, Sepember 6th. Bar two brohers, Hugh and George, of this place, attended the funeral. A Ibrother, Donald, in Alpena, Mich, and two sisters, Mrs. Wilcoxson and Mrs. Harbottle, of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., slso survive. The Toronto « Exhibition closed on Saturday night last. The total number in attendance, estimated 962.000. is the largest in its his- tory. but the million mark has not yet been reached. Considering the condition of the weather, it must be gratifying to the management to see the real interest the citizens of Toronto. and the inhabitants of Canada generally take in this great annual show. The total at- tendance in 1911 was 926,500, and the increase this year of 35,000 speaks well for the increasing interest. all, there are worse places than Durham.

As we said last week. the fair has passed the experimental stage, and now all that remains to be done is for the farmers to supply the horses. That there is money in horse rais- ing is an acknowledged fact, and as the present high prices are al- most certain to continue for afew yvrs, at least, the farmers‘ of this vicinity should take advant- age of the fact tht they have but to bring their barbs in, when they will find ready purchasers, who are willing to pay top prices for all animals offered. 0! course, the better class of horses will com- mand the better price, and it is to the farmer’s own interest that he bring in his animals in as goal condition as possible. i .It is well known that different kinds of grain growing side by side is apt to mix. This is espec- ially the case when two or three kinds of corn grow near to each other. On Monday last, Rev. Mr. McCausland brought us in an ear of corn on which were growing several grains of oats. A stalk of cats had been growing near the now, which is the probable cause of the cross fertilization. This is the first of the kind we remember seeing.

Dealing with the present day Kashmirs, one notices how, with the arts and the trade which Kashmir had in olden days, the businesslike and commercial qual- ities of the people have also de-} teriorated. Kashmir State once had a shawl trade of 91, 000 ,.000 00 a year. The use of imported European wool in India threatens the ex- tinction of what remains of the shawl industry in that country, and it is impossible for it to re- gain its lost position. In fact, it is only a matter of time when a fine Kashmir shawl will be a cur- losity. Save your Kashmir shawl. It may soon become as valuable as a fine old Turkish rug. W.
