 Tha Standard. MARKDALE FEB. 28, 1884. CHEESE FACTORY. A meeting was held on Saturday last, in the Orange Hall, for the pur- pose of «lecting officers and other business in connection with the estab- lishment of Markdale cheese lactory. There was a large attendance of the farmers of the district, all of whom appeared enthusiastic on the factory question. Mr. Garrett, of Flesherton cheese factory, was present, and gave valuable information in reference to the management of the business. The â- following officers were elected: â€" Mr. B. Coleman, President; Directors â€" Messrs. John Boland, John Hutchin- son, John Whitby, Wm, Jackson, jr., Wm. McLoughry, H. McKee, Wm. Brown, Euphrasia, H. D. Irwin, Jas. Wright. The directors elected Mr. Thos. Boland as secretary. The busi- ness is to be managed on the same principle as that of the Flesherton factory, viz The patrons guarantee the milk of a given number of cows each, making in all not less than 200, to be delivered at the factory in good condition and pure, while the proprie- tors of the factory bind themselves to make a first-class article at a certain price per lb., the directors, or one of themselves whom they appoint for th« purpose, make sale of their product from time to time, as the mp,rket and other circumstances suit. Messrs. Elliott and Carson are now making vigorous efforts preparing for the erec- tion of the factory which they will Lave ready for operation by the Ist of May. NEW ELECTION. Owing to the death of A. W. Lauder, M. P, P., an election in East Grey will take place at au early day and considerable uneasiness is already dis- played in certain circles, as to who will be the lucky man to fill the vacancy. The feeling has been grow- ing for years in favor of a local man to represent the riding, but no one ever expected it to come about in the sad way in which it did. Mr. Lauder was, comparatively speaking, a young man, and bid fair for many years of active life, and though the probabilities were that be would not have been success- ful as a candidate for East Grey another term, owing to the increasing desire on the part of ratepayers to have a local man, yet he would have had no difficulty in securing a seat in the house. There are a number of aspirants, or those who are spoken of as probable candidates, in the Con- servative party, among whom are Messrs. W. J. McFarland, T. Kells, Dr. Christoe, N. McColeman, T. Mc- Kinney, J. Rorke, Thos. Gamey and on the Reform side we have heard the names of Messrs. Wrc. Brown, J. J. MiddletoD, and A. Gifford, mentioned. Each party will, however, have a meeting of their convention forthwith, after which things will present a more practical aspect.' lif'liat nre may Expect. Another wedding.

"How is your health " "Quite well, thank you." The question often comes formally, but sometimes doubtless, with anxious concern for our welfare, from a friend or acquaintance^ The true answer would be, in the great majority oi instances, to say, "No worse than usual." Very few, indeed, enjoy perfect health, the indispensable prerequisite to real success and 'happi- ness. This may, to many, appear a startling statement, while, on- the other hand, in view of the almost uni- vergal and constant violation of the physiological laws, by even the edu- cated, as well as the more illiterate, those who properly understand the re- lations of cause and effect with respect to the laws of health, rather regard it as a wonder, that so many are, after all, comparatively comfortable, and do not suffer more, though ihey are cer tainly far from the enjoyment of per- fect health. To be healthy, we must obey the health laws; but the great majority of the people live as if there were no law to be regarded, but the law of their own inclinations and convenience; they forget tbat to be healthy we must have, in due quantity, pure and proper food, pure water, pure air, cleanliness, sufficient exercise, rest, sleep the proper and healthy regula- tion of the feelings, especially the con- trol of the passions and propensities due regard to temperature, and the free circulation of the blood. First, then, as to proper food. Those articles that are impure in Iheir nature, highly concentrated, difficult to digest, or highly stimulating, should be discarded as unfit for human aliment. Among these may be men- tioned, pork, pastry, spicep. and tea and coffee, which many regard as af- fording nourishing food as well as drink. That prince of savengers, the hog, constitutes an important part of the food of millions. By nature, he is filthy, and by practice, he is abomin able. No filth is too reyolting for his omnivorous tastes, and no quantity excessive, so bng as it will permit him still to breathe and grunt. It is admitted that impure air, water, and surely impure food will breed impuri- ties in the human organism then why should they not in the organism of the hog The term, scrofulous, which is au important basis of filth diseases, is derived from the Latin, sciofa, a sow, because of the known condition of this animal's flesh. But while the flesh of a healthy hog, if such a term is admissible, and such an animal possible, might be tolerated, the process of fattening to which he is subjected, should cause oven the human stomach to revolt against re- ceiving this concentrated essence of all that is filthy. This scavenger, shut in his narrow pen, wallowing in his own filth, eating to the utmost re- pletion, inhaling an intolerable stench, feeding upon the foulest combinations of animal and vegetable refuse in all processes of decay, can no more haye healthy flesh than can man subjected to the same conditions maintain pure blood. A swill- barrel is a concentration of filth capable of producing more dysen- teries, diptherias, scarlatina, small-pox than all the boards of health in North America could control and yet it is considered proper food on which to feed the fattening hog, which is, in turn, to be eaten by the hungry mil- lions this filth, if fed to other ani- mals, would soon causf) disease and death, but the coarse, filthy appetite of the bog is never debauched, and he lives and grunts, though he is poisoned every hour of his life and when he becomes too loaded with filth to hve much longer, waen his feeder has grave fears that he cannot continue to endure these disease-producing pro- cesses, he kills him and places him upon the market as healthful food, or should nature forestall the butcher, and the hog die a natural death, it is not certain that the feeder's conscience would secure him a naturnl burial. Surely this cancerous, tuberculous, scrofulous, trichina-infected pork is a concentration of filth eminently cap able of transference to other organ- isms, and the production of human diseases. A healthy Bty-fed hog must certainly be considered an impossi- bdity; for though his organism is not sufficiently sensitive to ilevelop dangerous diseases the causeH thereof must certainly exist in a latent form to be developfid into actual disease in the more sensitive human organism. Late investigations in vegetable physiolo^ have proTjcd that evrai the plant may become impnre or poisoned by being plapted in filthy sdil, it hav- ing no power to reject the elements of impanty which happen to be mingled with its natnnl food, while the very sofejeet w« are diseasniiir fieriyoR all its im;^)rtanc»^m tftfe admowledged scientific iaotthat«m««b too must become poisoned and impure, if the impurities exist in the air breathed, the water drunk, or the food eaten. How important, therefore, must be the conclusion that pork, apait from its natural unfitness for food, is poisoned and filthy because of the habits and surrouudings of the hog I But how is it with the flesh of other animals None are so filthy in their habits, we are sure, as is this one, and if left to themselves, their flesh could not, by «ny means, compare in fonl- nesd with the justly despised pork but when we consider the processes of fattening to which our beef, mutton, turkey, duck, chicken, are subjected, we are compelled to ask ourselves if these supply pure food for .human beings. ©arespandatxca^ Notice. â€" We wish it distinctly understood that we do not hold ourselves responsible for the opinions expressed by our correspondents. To the Editor of the Standard. In reply to last week's issue of the Advance. Among the Kimberley items it is stated that Mr. D Holman is going to start a shoe shop in that place. This is not so. If you were to bunt Kim- berley from one end to the other, you couldn't get a place large enough to stick your head in, except the grist- mill, summit house, and we all know what that is like. (Probably Kimberley correspondent don't). Advance man wonders if "D." wants to get any more printing done on "Tick" or if he expects to use what he ordered last fall, when doing business in Maxwell, and which, he" says, has not yet been paid or called for. Well! well! Ad- vance, your memory must have failed you. or you would remember that I called for same three times and was not done, and had the money ready for you any time. So at last you promised to send it to me when done. You failed in doing so, and I never called for it again, and don't intend to now. But when yon ii'ail to me, as agreed, your pay will be remittal to you. Please grind d few more littlo fibs like this in your mill, which you are accustomed tg do, and then stop. Himself. Personals.

Owing to the inclemensy of the weather last Thursday the Musical and Literary entertainment, given under the auspices of the I. 0. O. F. here in the Town Hall, was poor'y patronized; the audience was sn^all, and maide it rather discouraging for those immediately connected with the entertain- ment, and also for those taki'ig part in the programme but all seemed fully determined to make the evening as enjoyable as possible, and each one rpndered his and her part with as much enthusiasm as if to a crowded house. Mr. A. S. VanDusen occupied the chair very creditably, bnt seemed a little bashful. Sone.s were welUrendered by Mrs. W. Trimble, Miss Christoe. Mis? M. Ilichard- Bon, Miss VanDuseu, and Mr. F. McDowell. Mr. Macphers-on. our jiopular banker, with song. "Uhcte Joe,"' brought down the house and was loudly eueoreil. Song, "Mortgaging the Farm," by Mr. MePherson and Mrs. W. W. Trimble aud Company, in character, was well rendered and duly appreciated by the audience. Recitations were well rendered by Miss Hopkins. Miss Ida Jimbv and Mis" Breeaze, of Chatsworth. Miss Hopkins still retains her reputation and ability as a reciter. Miss Jtniby, although her yoice is not strong, is very expressive. She recited "Death's Doom" exceedingly well Miss Breeaze re- cited "The Mother's Fool" very nicely. Head- ings were given by the Editor of tho Advance and J. Blackburn. Choice selections ol instrumental music were rendered by the Quartette, also by Messrs. McDowell, Mc- Kechnie and Vanzant. The Parks Bros, also dalighted the audience by their sweet music. On the whole the programme was well sus- tained, and no doubt if the weather had been at all favorable there would have been a crowded house. Dr. Campbell. Phrenologist, who visited this place about 16 years ago, and ij well known here to Lave a good knowledge of the science, lectured in the i'own Hall on Monday evening. Subject, Phrenology. At the Masonic social, on Friday evening, there was a good attendance, in fact the hall was well fiUed. The entertainment consisted chiefly in various games and social amuse- ments, together with an oyster supper, all of which was heartily entered into and very much enjoyed. Quite a number were present from Markdale. GOINO KORTH Toronto Departs Orangcville " Monnt Forest " Harristou " Teeswater Arr.
