Field’s farm. opposite the stand pipe, last Saturday evening. Mr. Field had been working in this house only a short time before the fire was discovered When returning to the house he saw smoke comihg from the roof and immediately sent in the alarm. Before the' fire brigade arrived all the chicks and equipment had been re: moved from the building.

Opinions vary as to its success. In some localities it appears to be advantageous. while in others the results do not seem to justify the ef- fort. However, the Palmerston business men have signiï¬ed their intention of giving the idea a thorough trial with the hape that it will bring more busi- "ness to Palmerston. .Starting on Wednesday.

Leapold Macaulay visited Walkerton and, in conference with the highway committee, discussed the matter of pav- ing of the five miles between Black Horse and the Teeswater gravel inter- section on King’s highway No. 9. The estimated cost is between $80,000 and! $90,000, of which Bruce County would‘ be asked to pay 20 per cent., which on an assessment of $4,000 would cost a ratepayer from- $2 to $2.50.
