Col(lwater s Good Showing` The Goldwater team, whicl: did` this event in fast time, deserve spec- ial mention. The brigade is com- posed of young men, some of them still in their teens. That these youths can outdo veterans suggests previous faithful practice. Warden Presents Cup Warden Coombs, on behalf of the County, presented the cup to the Penetang brigade. He pointed out the necessity of capable remen in every community and lauded the courage of the remen in braving many risks.

Barr-ie made an exhibition run, but experienced difficulty in get- ting` the couplings tight enough. Several spectators were victims of a downpour wl;-ich didn t come from the passing clouds. Hose Reel Explained The home team showed skill in the coupling" contest and knocked down both semaphores without mishap. It should be explained that in the hose reel race eight men ride on the re reel, travelling at top speed, two jump off at the hydrant, attach hose and turn on the water, others jump oil at places were couplings must he made. Then the semaphore is knock- ed over with the stre-;am, the water turned off and a spare length of hose put in and another semaphore knocked down. Tn H-m ..m.nl:..~ .......;n..4.

Beautiful rockets, which soar- ed higlz, broke into balls of re, others which showered streams of pink and green, of red or purple, were shown in abundance. There was the sound of breaking` shells, whi1'ring` wheels, crackling re and booming bombs. Especially pretty was the great maple leaf, the union jack and the kaleidoscope shell.

I doubt if there are more than half a dozen people here who know their church history and what they stand for. The Baptists, for instance, don t stand for a certain mode of baptism, as is popularly supposed. The people for- get the points they are divided on, and what does it matter, for they `are all divided on something` which is away o on the edge of things. During` the course of his remarks, Dr. Cahoe said that there was little di`erence between Canadians and Americans. You see more mous- taches in Canada and people here let their hair grow long'er.

All the worry :1 man has is that he is doing his best. There are thousands who would like to be millionaires, but an honest man` is a thousand times bet- ter than a millionaire, unless the millionaire is an honest man.

Overcrowding' is respon- sible for heavy loss and cattle arrive at port of loading in a more or less exhausted, shrunken condition. Sev- eral hours rest is advisable at feed- ing points, where the exercise and opportunity to relax is possibly more important than the feeding; (2) Fat cattle lose more than those in a less forward condition; (3) Ocean shrink- age is comparatively light (under fair conditions as to wcather and attend- nnrn \ Which Pays Better, Sale in Canada. or Export? It is frequently stated that it pays just as well to sell in Canada as to export. In a `Q :-neral way this is true.` It should be remembered distinctly, Jiowcver, that for the classes of cattle required by Great Britain, the export trade ltas estab- lished or stabilized Canadian prices. In other words the British market has pulled up Canadian prices to the same level, costs of shipping con- sidered. This has been proven in two shipments made by the Domin- ion Experimental Farms during: this season. In a lot sent from Maritime farms local prices were increased thr0u_e'h the fact that steers were ex- ported from the locality. In ship- ments from Saskatchewan and Al- berta maximum appraised values at point of shipment, were, with the exception of one lot of yearlings, in- creased b_v from 2 to 52 cents per cwt. Quebec cattle of rather indif- ferent quality on export exactly equalled prices received at the farm for cattle of like quality. If the price of cattle in Canada is equal to not export prices, this benet directly due to the removal of the embargo. I l I I I `WAR AGAINST HAIR BOBBING!

Born at Tavistock fty-three years ago, the late Mr. Loth came to Bar- rie in 1907, and opened a shop on Dunlop street, where he plied his trade as harness maker until his fatal illness seized him. Although he had been in failing` luealth for some time, the deceased was able to continue at work until two weeks ago, when he was conned to bed. His condition rapidly grew worse, and on Saturday last he was re-' moved to Toronto for treatment. Previous to coming` to Barrie Mr. Loth resided at Guelph, Drayton and 'In_s;'ersol. Thirt_\'-one years ago he was married in Guelph. Mrs. Loth and two daughters, Misses Pearl and Dorothy, survive. His mother, Mrs. John Loth, of Tavistock, and six brothers, are also left to mourn.
