The pictured likeness of Reeve Hunt, (Bentinck Township, Grey County) has appeared more than once in. weekly and daily papers, but our readers have not seen Mrs. Hunt’s picture in the press, nor will they today; Yet those who know her will bear out my state- ment and so will the reeve, that Mrs. Hunt is. an even better candi- date for the camera than her husâ€" band. Asked for her picture the other day, Mrs. Hunt said she was sorry that she had no snapshot at hand. We suspect she has. as little time as most farm women have for posing in any sense. ”We found Mrs. Hunt where she is usually to be found, in her own charming and orderly home on the Durham road a few farms west of Hutton Hill. We could not help remarking with pleasure the staunch cedar windbreaks where windbreaks are an advantage, and more unusual around farm houses, close-trimmed, carefully kept hedâ€" ges about the house. These seemed a keynote -to the whole place, a: farm home where live people were1 setting order and progress to team work. A purple clematis climbs the: verandah. On the south wall a splendid vine of Boston ivy aspires to the chimney. In the garden hobnobbing with lettuce and peas are rows of young spruces set there for special cultivation till they are old.enough to take their places and reinforce the wind- breaks. And so the visitor must be slow of perception who does not surmise that the Hunts must be partial to trees. PEN PICTURE OF BENTINCK’S FIRST lADY '. C. in London "Froe Press Durham, Ont. $33 Mrs. Hunt, \xliilc shmxing us 1101' ferns and bcgonias. had occasion to moxe some pieces of gleaming silver and pvrexwaro and remark- ed that these “are picsmitcd to herself and 111111 husband 1ast ynar 0n the Occasion 11f theii silwr wedding. It is roalh "(L \11 1‘3 than Since Margaret Cuff loit 1101' giil- hood homc, also in Boniinck. in take charge of her own household. but. this pleasant. energetic lady ? As a matter of fact, we believe “most farm women in our country still meet 'the expenses of their homes by their own work in keep- ing cows and hens, but very few nowadays churn except to supply their own tables, while not a few have the “cream man” bring their supply of butter on his rounds. Mrs. Hunt not only churns some 40 pounds of butter 3 week. but. she so feeds her cows, cares for her cream and mixes her butter that what she produces is something very delectable. Some day when dairy butter will be graded and prices ranged accordingly for qualities from “gilt-ei‘lged" down to "impossible”, Mrs. Hunt. and other dairy experts may have. something like adequate recompense for thein skilled handling of a butter spoon. In the meantime this busy woman has her own customers and she. also has the satisfaction of posses- sing her own crock of butter in the cool cellar, with its shelves of jars of maple syrup of her own clarify-‘ ing_ as well as the usual familiar fru1t of her own canmng. So our readers conclude that the first lady of the township plants trees and keeps a diary. She does. She also does all her own house- wark irreproachably, expects to raise about 100 chickens this year in her new brooder house, helps out in the fields in haying and harvest, sews, milks seven fine black cows and churns all her (‘- ream. When asked for some data abOut their tree planting, Mrs. Hunt was not at a loss for a moment. She turned to one of a number of well- bound book and quickly looked up the information. A dairy, if you please. Not the kind some of us have begun so bravely on New Year’s night and have given up before St. Valentine’s Day.

When it‘reached John Munn's farm on the 9th concession it struck with all its fury, completely de- molishing the bank barn.

Hotel On Fire » Tuesday morning, about five o‘clock, fire broke out in the Com- mercial Hotel at Mildmay. in a section of the building used as a summer kitchen. The damage is estimated at upwards of $2,000, partly covered by insurance. The guests made hurried exits, some of them by ropes from the windows of the rooms they were occupying. The prompt action of the firemen prevented extensive damage. Withâ€" in about five minutes after the alarm was sounded two streams of water were playing on the blaze. It appears that a fresh wood fire had been started in the summer kitchen. which is about 18 x 20 feet, and the pipes became over- heated. Smoke in a short time, was in other parts of the hotel. There is considerable damage. from that and water.â€"â€"Mildmay Gazette. Saturday Night Closing Meaford merchants have decided to close their stores at '10 o'clock Saturday evening. A petition was circulated and was signed by near- ly all the merchants in town. This is certainly right as the places of business have been open until nearly midnight. Shopping can be. done just. as well by ten o'clock as later and it gives the merchants and clerks a better chance. The. general tendency all over the. pro- vince is toward earlier c10sing. One big chain of general stores is now .closing at; 6 o‘clOck Saturday evening the. same as other days. In five years that will probably be general. In Toronto big stores close Saturday afternoon. The hard worked clerks are. being given consideration at last. â€" Mcal‘ord Mirror. Mrs. Beechie’s Narrow Escape During the heavy electrical storm about ten o‘clock Tuesday night.

For a few moments D PEN, met A BENTINCI’S FlllSl IADY c. M. .G. in London ‘Free Press The pictured likeness .of Reeve Hunt, (Bentinck Township, Grey Coanty) has appeared more than once in weekly and daily papers, but our readers have not seen Mrs. Hunt’s picture in the press, nor will they today.“ Yet those who know her will bear out my stateâ€" ment and so will the reeve, that Mrs. Hunt is an even better candi- date for the camera than her husâ€" band. Asked for her picture the other day, Mrs. Hunt said she was sorry that she had no snapshot at hand. We suspect she has. as little time as most farm women have for posing in any sense. “We found Mrs. Hunt where she is usually to be found, in her own charming and orderly home on the Durham road a few farms west of Hutton Hill. We could not help remarking with pleasure the staunch cedar windbreaks where windbreaks are an advantage, and more unusual around farm houses, close-trimmed, carefully kept hedâ€" ges about the house. These seemed a keynote 'to the whole place, a farm home where live people were setting order and progress to team work. A purple clematis climbs the. verandah. 0n the south wall a splendid vine of Boston ivy aspires to the chimney. In the. garden hobnobbing with lettuce and peas are rows of young spruces set there. for special cultivation till they are old.enough to take. their places and reinforce the windâ€" breaks. And so the visitor must be slow of perception who does not surmise that the Hunts must be. partial to trees. They are. Later. Mrs. Hunt went over the. field which they have ro~ forested with us.

This is an accurate, concise record of the chief happenings on the farm day by day for years together, all written in the one neat, clear hand. A history of interest and of un- doubted business value. So our readers conclude that the first lady of the township plants trees and keeps a diary. She does. She also does all her own house- work irreproachably, expects to raise about 100 chickens this year in her new brooder house. helps out in the fields in haying and harvest, sews, milks seven fine black cows and churns all her cream. As a matter of fact, we believe most farm women in our country still meet the expenses of their homes by their own work in keep- ing cows and hens, but very few nowadays churn except to supply their own tables, while not a few have the “cream man" bring their supply of butter on his rounds. Mrs. Hunt not only churns some 40 pounds of butter :1 week. but she so feeds her Cows, cares for her cream and mixes her butter that what she produces is something very delectable. Some. day when dairy butter will be. graded and prices ranged accordingly for qualities from "gilt-edged" down to "impossible”. Mrs. Hunt. and other dairy experts may have. something like adequate recompense for their, skilled handling of a butter spoon. In the. meantime this busy woman has her own customers and slm also has the satisfaction of posses- sing her own crock of butter in the cool cellar. with its shelves of jars of maple. svrup of her own clarify- ing as well as the. usual familiar fruit of her own canning. Mrs. Hunt. while showing us her ferns and begonias. had occasion to move some pieces 01‘ gleaming silver and pyrexwaro and remark- ed that these were prescnted to herself and her husband last year on the occasion of their silver wedding.
