WSDNB8DAY, MARCH 23. 1927 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE BBMTINCK BABN BURNED. About eleven o'clock last Saturday niffht the fin« Urge bam of Mn. Alf . Noble'a, 2nd con^ Bentinck, went up in flamea. Mr*. Noble was in the barn, filling a tick with straw, when a young pig knocked the lantern over, and in an instant the straw was ablate. In the bam were con- sumed a horse belonging to Mr. Leuck and jome of Mn. Noble's stock which couU not be got out in time â€" a horse cow, two year-old heifers, two BO-lb. pigs. A load of hay and a number of implements also were destroyed â€" a mower, land roller, hoe drill, cul tivator, wagon, set sleighs, and a fan ning ntiU. We understand there was considerable insurance on bam and contents.â€" Durham Review. THOSE POISONED PIGS. The Herald mentioned last week the loss sustamed by R. A. Gillespie in a pig being poisoned by psris green placed in the feeding trough. AH his pen of ten pigs, which were a fine bunch ready for market, were more or lesd sick from the poison and another one died. The trough waa taken out of the pen and before it was cleaned the sheen had access to the trough and one ewe died. The Provincial constable was up from Orangeville enquiring into Mr. Gillespie's mis fortune but the mystery as to who placed the poison in the truogh is still unsolved. â€" Dundslk Herald.

The road to Flesherton waa opened for motor traffic last weelt. The snow had nearly all disappeared and our mail carrier, Mr. Heitman, has been running his truck. Mr. James and Master Herbie Eby motored over to Owen Sound and All- enford, returning home again on Monday. While driving here to Sunday uehool on Sunday morning Mr. Ed. Pedlar's horse ran away on account of the har- ness giving wsy coming down a hill on the sideline. The horse broke clear swsy from the buggy and pulled Burton Pedlar, who was driving, out over the dashboard and trailed him a considerable distance, but no one was severely hurt and the horse was csught atfer running a short distance. Mr. and Mrs. Forsyth have returned to their home in Owen Sound after a two weeks' visit with the latter's par- ents, Mr. and Mrs. Eby, here. Mr. Wm.

Canada's northern country ia stead- ily being opened up. Porsibilities in hunting, ranching, mining and other lines are coming into aight but it ia a truism that these can only be de- veloped with the aid of the native popoulation of Indians and Eskimos. For generations the natives have de- pended for a great part of their food and clothing upon the caribou. The wolf preys on this animal and does fur- ther damage by destroying the fur- bearers caught in the traps of the hunters. To check these losses and to protect the subsistence of the In dians and Eskimos the Dominion Gov- ernment in 1915 offered a twunty of $20 per head for each wolf killed in the Northwest Territories, the hunter being allowed after receiving the bounty to sell the pelt for what it would fetch. This brought down lit- tle if any increase in the number of wolves destroyed, and to get the situ- ation into liand the Northwest Terri- tories and Yukon Branch in the winter cf 1P22-23, and again in 1923-24, sent a wolf-hunting party into the caribou country east of Great Slave liSke, which resulted in the destruction in the two years of 320 wolvea, pelts thus obtained were sold at auc tion and the proceeds materially as- sisted in paying the cost of these ex- peditions.

At the sales held in 1926 and the one in January. 1927, pelts to the number of 964 were disposed cf for $18,864. Thus, al- thougii the hunter was encoui-aged, by the increased bounty of $30, to get more wolves, the Government ef fected a considerable saving as com- pared with the former bounty of $20, and the expansion of the market caused by the knowledge that such pelts can be secured in quantity will tend to further reduce the cost of combating the wolf menace.
