Sarvis admitted he was at fault, and the McLaughlin con- tinued on its way little damaged. At the monthly meeting of the Centre Grey Baseball League, it was decided to allow Durham to enter if they so desired. Durham applied for entrance into the league some time ago.

On Thursday of last week, the Park Hotel and property, formerly known as the Temperance House, and owned by a hotel company, was sold to Mr. A. B. Ferris who has conducted the hotel for the past three years. The Park Hotel was built some '18 years ago and was named the Temperance House, be- ing a departure from the class of old hotels that sold “hard” refresh- ments, and was first run by Mr. W. W'. Trimble of Flesherton. Since that time, there have been four or five tenants, and for the past three years, has been efficiently run by Mr. Ferris. The building is three storeys high and is of brick construction throughout, and besides this, there is a large. barn on the, property, and we understand that the. purchase price, was $3.000 Mr. Ferris has already commenced the installation of water works and will add all eonviences that a hotel should have. making it one of the best in this part of Ontario.

This year we have noticed a num" her of articles in ditferent. papers in Grey County mentioning the success different black fox breeders have had in raising pups from their stock this year. Some very good records have been made, but we do not think any of them can surpass Mr. James Dargavel of Rock Mills who has been breeding foxes for a number of years past. Mr. Dar- gavel has 37 black fox pups this season and was fortunate in not los- ing one from any cause. Including this year's pups. Mr. Dargavel has 65 foxes including some. of the best stock there is in Ontario and is now in a position to realize on his in- vestment.
