New Liskeard police summoned a Haileybury man for speeding in the Creamery Town on Sept. 6th. _ The Ha.lleybmy gentleman, who is one of the town councillors of the Count) Town, was able to make affidavit that on the date of the alleged offence at New Liskeard, he was actually drivâ€" ing his car in Toronto in the Crusade. On receipt of the affidavit, the police recognuized that a mistdke had been made and accordingly withdrew the case. â€" The question, however, remains as to what would have happened in case the accused man had not been able to produce such conclusive proof, even though he protested that he had not been speeding and was not in New Liskeard on the date mentioned. ‘‘Last week just before going to press we received word that Mr. Gorâ€" don Leverre, of Dymond Township, had threshed during the week, 103 bushels of oats from one acre of land. Of course he had a field of oats, and measured one acre for a test, keeping the grain on this acre separate from the other. Also, we are told on good authority, that the oats weigheg 48 pounds to the measured bushel, whereâ€" as the standard is 34 pounds to the bushel. _ An explanation is needed here, otherwise someone might think we are exaggerating: The standard for grain was fixed under the oldâ€"time measure which was smaller than the measure now being used and called the Imperial measure. Under the old bushel measure the standard for wheat was 60 lbs. per bushel. When a farâ€" mer found that his wheat ran over the standard by one or two pounds he considered he had a good erop. The same grain measured by the Imperial measure would weigh 64 or 65 lhbs. However, the oats grown by Mr. Leâ€" verre are the heaviest we have known to grow in Temiskaming or anywhere _else, and go to show not only that we have had a very favourable season, but that we have the climate and the soil to grow the best quality of cereals either fine or coarse."‘ the matter beyond any question, but after being duly impressed by such exhibits people will forget and turn around and talk thoughtlessly like some of the ‘Southern newspapers. The fact that there are farms all through the North Land, within easy reach of a motor trip from every cenâ€" tre in this area, should make the matâ€" ter plain enough for all to see, but the facts apparently need to be impressed: by frequent examples quoted. Ths New Liskeard Speaker is constantly giving publicity to such concrete ilâ€" lustrations, and so doing a good work for the agricultural development of this North. Last week The Speaker had the following:â€" > THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO At Factoryâ€"Taxes Extra Pâ€"9288 Mrs. R.

During the fifâ€" teen years of its existence the Cobalt «YÂ¥ has given the town and district very helpful and advantageous serâ€" vice, and appears to be at the present time like Johnny Walker, ‘still going strong.‘‘ Next thing we expect to see is a sign readmo "Ye Olde Undertaking bhoppe * ’â€"B‘loxence (Alabama) Herâ€" ald. LINIMENT ‘«Considerable discussion took place regarding the organizing of a Curling Association for the Clubs along the T. N. 0. Railway. It was pointed out that the interest in curling has deâ€" veloped to such an extent in the North that the association embracing the C. P. R. Clubs and T. N. 0. Clubs had become too large for the holding of a joint bonspiel. This was made quite evident at the bonspiel held at Haileyâ€" bury last winter. In order to get the views of other Temiskaming and Cochâ€" rane District clubs the local Secretary was authorized to communicate with the northern clubs so that, if thought advisable, steps might be taken to jointly discuss the matter. We unâ€" derstand clubs have now been formed at Haileybury, Liskeard, Englehart, Kirkland Lake, Timmins, Schumacher, South Poreuptne, Iroquois Falls, Cochâ€" rane and Kapuskasing. Cobalt is reâ€" presented in the Haileybury Club and would doubtless enter a bonspiel as a Cobalt unit. The above list of clubs should make up a goodly number of rinks. ‘Those who intend curling this winter and especially those desirous of joining the celub as new members should. notify some member of the executive at as. early a date as posâ€" sible."‘‘ It may also be of interest here to note that the following were the offiâ€" cers elected by the New â€" Liskeard Curling Club for the ensuing year:â€" Hon. Pres., P. R. Craven; president, Elgin Binkley; viceâ€"president, A. E. Stephenson; secretaryâ€"treasure, T. C. Grills. â€" The meeting also decided that the fees for the ensuing year would be the same as last year, viz., $10 for new players and $15 ior old players. SIR WILFRID LAURIER IN 1912 OPENED COBALT At the annual meeting of the New Liskeard Curling Club the question of forming a Northern Ontario Curling Association was suggested. This is a question that will be of special interâ€" est to Timmins curlers, the enthusiâ€" asts here having on more than one ocâ€" casion last year suggested such a plan. The New Liskeard Curling Club is taking the first steps to carry through the plan and it is likely that all the other clubs along the T. N. O. will give hearty support and coâ€"operation and the plan accordingly may ‘be gotâ€" ten under way this coming season.
