The prize list of the Ontario Proâ€" vincial Winter Fair, which will be held at tGuelph from December 5th to #%h, 19}4. has just been received. Atter a careful review of the rules and regulations as embodied in the prize list, we notice that the only important change is with referenee to the Dairy Test. In former years the test was started on Monday of the week of the Show and ended on Wednesday. This necessitated the closing of the Dairy Department to the public until the Fair was half over and owing to the large amount of clerical work inyolyvâ€" ed, the results of the test could not be B?sted earlier then Friday. The anagement has acted in the interest uf both exhibitors and yisitors by havâ€" ing the test begin on Saturday and end ow Monday. Visitors will have accese to the Dairy Department during the full time of the Show and the comâ€" plete results of the test ean be posted not later than Wednesday. Arrangeâ€" ments are being made to have indiâ€" yidaal results posted in front of each cow, so that complete information will be avyailable to visitors at the time they are examining the competing animals. A substantial increase has been made in the amount of the prizes, the offerâ€" ings for regular and special prizes making a total value of $8252,50. This amount is apportioned to the different departments as follows, â€"â€" Beet Cattle....... ........$1922.00 Dairy Cattle..............1240.00 Uheep,.............. .. .. 150200 fwine and Bacon Hogs....1526.00 Froality ...........:..:, .1447.90 _ PetStock and Dressed Poul . 565.00 I tound in most places a prevailing ignorance of Canada that is surprising. It is hard to drive them off the notion of 8 or 9 months winter. I was adâ€" vised to come over there and spend my ‘‘American‘‘ money, and I ralâ€" lied them on the use ot * American ‘ instead of Canadian. Still of recent Kears and since the South African war, nowledge is spreading of the colonics, and Canada is better known, and i needs to be. Our long distances they can‘t understand. _ A lady in Iverness wondered if I could deliver a parcel to her son in Manitoba!! An overcoat! I spent a week in Inverness the capiâ€" tal of the Highlands, and enjoyed the old historic associations of the place and the district near it. 5 miles away is Culloden Moor, the scene of the last fig ht for the Stuarts, and the last battle fought in Britain. â€" The tourists are so numerous here that the heather can hardly get growing so much of it puiled up as mementos. The churches are fine and maoy of them. _ Four Established Church, 6 United Free, 1 Free, 4 Episcopal, 1 R.C. Chapel, 1 Wesleyan Chapel. _ McTayish who came here from Y‘oodstock, Ont., is dead. Gayin Lang, of old Kirk fame, preaches here but is not popular. I did nos go to hear him." [We are again held up for space and must close here this week. Ed. I had the privilege of having dinner with the Duke‘s tactor in Dunrobin Castle and greatly admired the beauâ€" tiful grounds and other adornments with which wealth can surround itself. It is near Golspie, on the right, between the railway and the sea and surroundâ€" ed by large and finely woogaed grounds. It stands on a terrace about 80 feet above the level of the sea, which ripâ€" ples but a very short distance from its walls, The greater partof it is modern but some portions, including the old keep, were tounded as early as 1097. It is a noble looking building, worthy of the rank, position and great opuâ€" lence of its owner. Visitors are alâ€" ways made welcome to visit both the mansion and the policies when the family are nonâ€"resident, and generâ€" ally even when they are at home. There are several monuments about the grounds, one fine fullâ€"length statue of the second Duke standing at the side of the Public road. It will be seen from the abovo figâ€" ures that exhibitors who succeed in winning stock, will receive ample reâ€" ward for their efforts in direct cash returns. _ Besides this. exhibits at the Winter Fair bave attained a standard for quality which gives to exhibitors the maximum amount of adyertising value. Those who intend entering stock should now be giving particular attention to the fitting of their animals, As we intimated last week wa had an interesting interview with Mr. Geo. Tarnball, luelz‘ returned from Seotâ€" land, and we have pleasure in proâ€" ducing a few of his notes that may: prove of more than passing interest. **‘Seottish railway trayel is behind the times. To one used to the comforts ard conveniences of Canadian trains the changeis very unpleasant, not even a drink of water to be had, no conveniences, never a sight of conducâ€" tor, locked into narrow compartments, sitting knee to knee with fellow travelâ€" lers who may or may not be agreeable, often a most disagreeable experience for ladies especially. They have much to learn trom the new world. I was greatly struck to find them washing sheep whben I arrived, and they were astonished when I told them ours were cligped and the wool sold before I leit Canada. The climate, to one accustomed to sunny Canadian skies, is miserable, rain and more rain. At one time in my district considerâ€" able wheat used to be grown, but now oats is the principal crop, the wet seasons hindering ripening. THE PROVINCIAL WINTER FAIg.

Mrs Robertson. like ber husband, was an earnest loyal Christain, with a knowâ€" ledge of the Bible far beyond the averâ€" age. She could give a reason for the fath within her, and fortify that faith by abundant Seripture quotations. She was a spiendid neighbor, but more than all else, a good, kind mother, loyal and true, devoted to the welfare of her children, every one of whom has been an honor to her. The sickness, eancerous in its nature, which led to her death early Tuesday morning, Auguast 2, ran a long course, commencing semetime in the early part of the past winter. . The last three or four weeks of the disease was a period of most intense suffering, relieved only by the use of soothing remedies. The remains were placed in the Clayâ€" tonville cemetery, Rey, F. C. Hill, of Willis, having charge of the services. Four stalwart sons, a sonâ€"inâ€"law, Mr Kirk, and John Cushnie, to make the required numbers, were the pall bearers of the occasion. _ A beautifal picture it was, to see those men bearing with was, to see those men bearing with own hands the casket which contained all there was left to them of a once beâ€" lovyed mother.? In the year 1868. thirteen years after their marriage. Mrs Robertson, husband and children came to Brown county,. settling on a tract of land two miles north of where Willis now stands. This became her permanent home for the following thirtyâ€"six years, The struggle against adverse conditions who can know them? _ But father and mother were made of hercic stuffâ€"the storms were safely weathered so that at the passing of the husband and after some years ago, the surviving wife and children were left with sufficient means for a comfortable livelihood. "Margaret Weir was born May 30, 1833, near Edinburg, Scotland. _ In the year 1854 and at the age of 21 years she came to Canada, and ther formed the acquaintance of W. M. Robertson, later known as "The Old Stone Cutter" to whom she was married the following year. Of this union were born eight children five sons, Alexander, Adam. William, George and John, and three daughters, Jennie, Anmie and Bessie, ail having married except Bessie.

He there 3oined the SocietK of the Fraternal Order of Eagles who, when he was not able to care for himself, cared for him in eyery possible way,‘and sent him to the Sanatorium where he had the best medical advice, the best nursing and all the comforts of home, except the presence of loved ones, The Eagles watched over him and attended to his every want, and when the end came they, on August 14. laid him to rest in the Cemetery in Baker City, (Oregon. } 5 had * 4 During August we wish to draw your attention to the bargains we are offering in Millinery.

Donald was born in Glenelg in March 1874 and so was in his 3lst year, He went to Manitoba in 1892 and worked with a lumbering firm for a number of years. He then went with the same Co. to the Crow‘s Nest Pass and was foreman there for them for a time. He then went mining in British?}Columbia and finally drifted down to Bourne in Oregon where he worked in a mine until he was no longer able to work. ** Donald Kennedy died at Hot Lake Sanatorium on August 12."_ Such was the brief message wired to Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Kennedy announcing the death of ‘their son. Donald had been ill for about a year of diabetes but had imâ€" proved so much that he was able to assist in the work of the Sanatorinm, and intended to come home this fall. But chis was not to be for he was suddenly taken much worse and lasted but a day.
