The officiating clergyman was the late Rev. Robert McIntyre, a pioneer Baptist minister who resided near Priceville, and preached at many places in the Townships of Glenelg and Bentinck. As there were no churches .at the time. the services were held gener- ally in the homes of private families and the pioneer clergyman made his way from place to place on foot or on horseback, as the conditions would permit. Mr. A. B. McLellan was in Toronto last Week, where he attended ,the annual meeting of the Massey-Harris Company. of which he is the local agent. M r.

The company, despite the high prieâ€" es charged for- implen'lents, had not paid an}? dividends in three years, and while the company is in good shape. no mention of any future div- idend was made at the meeting.

He more than implied lill‘iil. they had sadly misdireetml their co- operative activities by trying in merchandise other pri'niuels instead of their own, and he bluntly coun- selled them to mind their own busi- ness in the literal sense.

Publicity Through Printer’s Ink Is What .Made California’s Farmers Prosperous. No Business Can Prosper Without Proper Publicity. Here is a funny one. Mr. Sapiro admits that. Ontario apples are head and shoulders over the California apple as regards flavor and utility. But. California apples are sold in the East while Ontario and New York State apples rot on the grouml! What. is the reason? Newspaper ail- vertising‘. says Mr. Sapiro. Tl‘ieri’: is a lesson in this for the smallâ€"town business man of Ontario and also the Ontario farmer. The foliowing comment on Mr. Sapim's address is taken from The (Hobo of 'l‘uesday of this week : CALIF ORNIA’S LESSON T0 FARMERS AND OTHER BUSINESS MEN Mr. Aaron. Sapiro, the genius of the California ce-«'1perative move- ment admitted yesterday in an ad- dress to the Toronto Canadian Club that Ontario produced the best ap- 11105. the best cheese the best bacon and the best butter on the eontin enl. If these products had not establish- ed for themselxes themlace thex «in- semeil in the \xorhj’ls markets, he thought the reason could be found in the absence oi the methods which enabled California to ship eggs to \‘eu \ork «lelixer them eighteen days after they were laid, and get a premium of two to four cents a dozen. Confessing that California apples had not the flavor of Ontarioâ€" grown ones, he pointed to the sale of the former all over the continent, after paying 50 con-ts a box for carâ€" riage to Eastern points. 111 New York, the greatest apple- -growing State of the Union, 60 per cent. of the crop rotted on the ground or was fed to the hogs. 2085 1138 been won Dvn Sapiro is an. advr “‘ ink. “It is r -’ .“Selves that lucts in fit I" ' $2.00 a Year in Canada; $2.50 in a visité Thv annual \‘o-sti‘y meeting of Trinity (Shin-("h was lmld in the church on Monday night and was well attvndod (lvspito llw storm.
