P., of Indian Point. farm on Balsam Lake, was in town Saturday on his way to Peterborough to spend Sunday with his labor anl other friends. Mr. Carnegie dill not go hunting this fall, but had be taken the notion he need not have gone farther than his own barnyard. He said that since early fall four and sometimes half-a-dozen "deer have been feeding with his cattle, and as the farm is I'iso- l:ited,.and thepdogs were.~kept housed, the deer grew so tame that it would have been easy to capture the graceful animals'alive. They are still located on the stockfarm, which afiords them ample shelter.” ' m }’ Whata“~We” Means.

"-Puley &~Joy’s new mill at Kinmount is practically finished, and: the machinery for it is expected to arrive this week, but, of course, may be delayed a few days in transit. The mill is a sub stantial, well built structure 32x40 feet, covered with mice roofing, and cost a little over, rather than under. $4,000. The machineryâ€"rolls for grinding and plates for choppingâ€"is all of the very latest and best description, and will turn out 50 barrels offlour and 700 bags of chop in 24 hours. If no unforeseen delays occur, chopping will commence by the middle of Dcccmber,-and it is expected that the rolls will be in opera- tion on the first day of the 20th century.
