Sep. 28th This year the energetic and experiencâ€" ed officers have everything in a forward state of preparation and at a recent meeting of the Board took a still further forward step, by arranging to supply a "long felt want," viz: seating the hill. Mr, J, W. Crawford for a rent considerâ€" ation to the Society, for a term of years is to erect seating accommodation on a part of the hill. This is to be covered, and, when completed, with our splendid natural advantages, we will have one of the best grand stands in the countryâ€" Many have wished for this, and would willingly bave paid a nominal fee for the privilege. Th above dates you will do well to re member. â€" They indicate the days on which a large number of South Grey farmers, their wives, sons and daughâ€" ters will meet in friendly contest (and conversation) for the numerous prizes offered by the South Grey Society. THE OXNTARIO ForestrY BUREAU.â€" Everyone who is interested in the progâ€" ress and material devolopment of Ontâ€" ario, and more especially every farmer, ought to read the annual report of the Bureau of Forestry for Ontario just isâ€" sued, Like its predecessors it is full of information on the subject of forest preservation and treeâ€"planting, and conâ€" tains an epitome of the latest practical conclusions and observations bearing on the forestry question. â€" ‘Ine seviousness of the situation in OQntario has been reâ€" cognized by the Provincial Goyernment which has lately appointed a commission to make a tour of the Province and ascertain the feasibility of replanting some of the waste lands with timber. The figures presented by this report, compiled from the returns of the Bureau of Industries, show the cxtent to which the denudation has been cartied in some ‘ of the trontier counties and the urgent need of some active measure to couuterâ€" act the evils which have resulted, The report deals briefly with the broader and more general aspects of the question inasmuch as the commission is now at work. _ It giyes some figures showing the extent to which the lumber supply is drawn from lands belonging to farmâ€" ers, partial statistics obtained from 1,500 l}uunher mills indicating that 365,> 000,000 feet, board measure, is cut every year from land under settlement, in adâ€" dition to other than pine timber. _ It is urged that farmers should look to the woodâ€"lot as a permanent source of revâ€" enue, and carefully guard such remains of the original forest as they possess from reckless destruction,. _ In view of the growing scarcity, and value of many kinds of timber they are recommended to plant their waste and unproductive lands with such kinds as are likely to be in demand in the tuture, and some inâ€" teresting and convincing facts showing the value of plantations on farms are given. The Iatest scientific experiments as to the value of trees as wirdbreaks in reserying the moisture of the adjacent Eelds are set forth at some length, Among other features of the report are papers on the study of nature in seoools, showing how Arbor Day might be made a much more useful institution than at present ; on the manufaeture of charâ€" } coal, by Alex. Kirkwood and on insects injurious to forest vegetation, by Dr, Brodie, a leadirg authority on entomâ€" viogical science. _A post card addressed toofir.

The provincial authorities are taking the matter ng‘.re Jas. Alliston a farm hand and one velyan, a medical student bave begn arrested on slight suspicion and more arrests are expected. Monday‘s pa%ers in startling headâ€" lines and lengthy description conveyâ€" ed the news of a foul murder near Galt. A Mrs. Orr, whose past record has not been of the best it seems, disappeared last Monday and it was supposed by many that she had eloped as she had done once before. Some thought suiâ€" cide, but the husband was not satisfied and got the neighbors to make a sysâ€" tematic search on Sunday last. An excavation plainly meant for a g::ve was found in a swamp near by, but no Durham Model School will reâ€"open on Sept, 2nd.
