Thompson Items.

The population of this township, like that
of most other rural towns, is scattered over
its entire surface, and embraces most
forms Of industry common to ordinary
farming townships, such as dairying,
woo.growing and stock raising, together
with variety Of manufactures, employing
the energies Of the people at remunorative
prices.
There are five churches in this town,
which, in their several forms, maintain the
ordinances of religion, and exert good in

of the churches have good horse. e.sheds at.
