Colts and calves were not numerous, but there was keen competition in mutton lambs and Barred Rock chickens. It has been remark- ed that it is a pity that the rulesof these fairs prohibit the exhibiting of `chickens which were not hatched from eggs supplied by the.Departrnent of Agriculture. There are many` birds to be found in good farm flocks in each neighborhood, not of this strain but showing strong utility points. Why not give them achance to show their merits before the judge? A keener interest - might be taken by children in poultry if the policy were broadened out so as to in- clude three or four of the best known utility breeds and allow the children to exhibit a limited number . from their home flock. There is of course the difficulty of coop- ing. which might be overcomeby each ex- hibitor furnishing his own coop. A prize could also be given for the best made coop. This is not a protest, merely a suggestion. The list of prize winners appears on page 15. Tuesday, September 25.--Lorne L.

Mrs. Thomas Allen, of the 7th concession of In- nisfil, passed away on Friday last. Her disease had baffled the best medical skill. and when at last its real nature was dis- closed in the ordeal of an operation, there wim not enough strength left to rally `from theshock. The funeral was held from the family residence on Monday afternoon, and. a very large concourse of people gathered , from near and far. `In deference to her at- tachment to the Presbyterian Church, the officiating clergyman, Rev. W. H. Adams, read the Scripture selections and the pray- ers from the Euchologion" of the Pres- byterian church, both in the home and at I the cemetery. giving an address from What is Your Life?"---which it seems was, by a strange coincidence_.,the text of the ser- mon preached at the funeral of the mother- in-law of Mrs. Allen, some twenty years ago. i In an (`H I AA 7 I,,, I.___ " iii; "AiiL}'I;';"ei;}i}:{' 39;};-_.'
