Mount Forest and Fergus were present at the noon luncheon of Guelph Board of Trade on Thursday to talk over the question of a countyâ€" Provincial highway between Owen Sound and Hamilton. The people of the former town are behind the project, wishing to get better connections with Guelph and Hamilton, and promote trade along the line. The scheme was fully explained by the deputation from Mount Forest, though no figures were given. The route proposed is really what used to be the old Indian trail for teaming between Owen Sound and Hamilton, when Guelph was the chief stopping place. After hearing the depuâ€" tation a committe was appointed from the Guelph board to join with Durham, Arthur, Fergus, and other places in a meeting at Mount Forest to consider the question and prepare facts and figures for submission to the Ontario Goverument. The committee is composed of G. B. Ryan Chairman ; J. M. Taylor, J. W. Lyon, G. Powell, Hamiltan ; George W. Walker, D. M. Swanson, W. H. Burgess, S D.

SEE our STATIONERY WINDOW The enormous circulation of The Family Herald and Weekly Star should be still greater when this offer becomes known. The publishers of the Family Heraid and Weekly Star for several months back have been fighting hard against the necâ€" essity of increasing their subscription rates, but eventually had to come to it like most other papers. The increase, however. is a mere triieâ€"twentyâ€"five cents a year, making their new rate $1.25 â€"and with the year‘s subscription they will include a copy of this great War Map free of charge. This is certainly a generâ€" ous offer, and one that Canadians will appreciate. Many expected a much larger increase in the subscription price! of The Family Herald, and are surprised at the small extra amount charged. | " Canagdian homes will no longer have difficulty in following the Canadian troops in France â€" There has just been issued a map of the European War area that clearâ€" ily shows every point of interest that has been mentioned in despatches since the Canadian forces first landed in France. It has been made specially for the great Canadian Weekly, The Family Herald and Weekly Star, of Montreal and is a credit indeed to Canadian enterprise. It is a marvel of detail and yet not crowded. It is in four colors and about 2 1â€"3 x 3 1â€"4 feet and folded into a very neat cover, about 5 x 10 inches. The map is surâ€" rounded by a border of the regimental badges and coat of arms of nearly every battalion that left Canada, from Halifax to Vancouver. Every important point can be recognized at once. That portion of the map covering France is in a soft color with names of towns and battle scenes in black, easily recognizable. The Map is endorsed by returned military exâ€" perts as most complete and accurate in detail. The Map could not be produced, except in such large quantities as The Family Herald will use, at less than two dollars a copy, vet it can be had absolutely free with the Family Herald.

[ An amateur editor, doing emergency duty on a farm paper, is credited with some amusing answers to correspondents.

"No. ~Put the corn in the trough and let them help themselves." "My hair is beginning to fall out. What can I get to keep itin ?" "A paper bag." "Our old bull is chasing me around a forty acre field.

With wheat soaring in price and besides all needed for human food, its use for poultry food is condemned and a sub. stitute must be looked for. Mill feeds such as shorts and bran are easier to get and cheaper than the grain feeds, and the grain part of the ration may be oats, barâ€" ley, buckwheat, &c, when procurable at reasonable price.
