With the idea of bringing buyers and sellers into touch with each oth- er. a number of breeders of pure bred cattle in Durham, Northumberland and adjacent counties last year form- ed the " Central Ontario Pure Bred Stock Association.” and started a series of annual auction sales. Their initial s-«le was fairly satisfactory, and they are now arranging for their second sale. which is to take place at Catnpbellctoft, on the 18th of March next, withJ. W. Martyn. of Canton, as President, and W. B. Campbell, of Campbellcroft, as Secretary, of the Association. There are many other counties ani districts which would find it beneficial to inaugurate sales of thr’s kind. and as a guide to breeders interesredin the subject. the rules governing the Central Ontario soles are given below : l. A committee of three will be appointed to inspect entries, value same. confer with contributors, and reserve the right to either withdraw from sale or accept the bid oflered. In many districts of Great Britain aucdpn sales of live stock have been held annually for years. Large num- bers of pure-bred animals for breed- ing purposes have been marketed in this way, besides a great many “ store” cattle and Other animals. In several provinces of the Dominion. Provincial sales have been established with satisfactory results, and have created a feeling in favor of county or district sales. There are hundreds of farmers throughout Canada who raise yearly from one to four good breeding males, and perhaps a few females. Many of these men under- stand the principles of stock breed- ing, and have from time to time bred noted show yard specimens. Yet the progress and profits of these men has been greatly hampered because of their inability to sell their surplus stock properly. In some years they have been able to sell; in other years they have bad to keep a number of animals longer than their means of feed warranted. On the other hand many farmers desire to obtain suit- able breeding males, but do not know where to buy what they require at a reasonable price. The cc st of travel- ling from place to place in search of suitable animals deters them from purchasing at all. 2. All nnimels must be registered in their respective herd books.

Bert Mockler had a heavy role in the play. but figured well throughout the whole affair During the intervals, Mr Norman McIntyre cheered the audience by his nimble touch on the piano, and so well did he manipulate the ma- chine that he put some of the travel- ling show specialists sadly in shade. Wes. Theobald, a hemp grower, under the title of Dietrich Dingle- hannes. made a. tvpical Dutchman. and kept the audience in good humor from his quaint speeches and pecul- iarly funny actions. Lauder Buchan made a capital “ nigger.” and an old maid. dead in love with anything in the shape of a man. was well represended by Miss Munro. She was bound to marry somebody, and even the portly Dutch- man to her was a “ dear. sweet man.” The stage was nicely decorated with new scenery, the property of the company, which. by the way, was artistically painted by Bert Mockler. who certainly shows considerable ability in painting scenery. Mr. Archie Beaten, of Pierson, Manitoba, who was born about a mile north of here over forty years ago, and left at the age of nine months with his parents for Paisley, visited here last week with his cousin, Mrs. J. C. Nichol. Mr. Beaten was over twenty years in the West and saw his birth place last week for the first time to his knowledge. He likes the Prairie Province well and from his robust appearance we imagine it agrees with him. To describe the plots and treasins. and thunder, and lightning, and all the thrilling incidents in connection with the play is beyond our ability. It must be seen to be appreciated, and to save us the trouble of further description we advise all to see for themselves when it’s next presented. ‘The Royal Stock Co. made their first appearance here on Friday even- ing of last week, and for a new company, giving their first public exhibition, they did excellent work in the Scout of the Philippines. We often listened to travelling concerns, “highly recommended by the city and country press.” that didn’t give half the real enjoyment of our own young people in this comedy. No need of that now.
