Farmers are done sowing oats, but no,
done replanting where the early potatoes
were frozen.
A large number of farmers in this sec
ton were very much disappointed at not
being able to procure fax seed.

home twenty bushels of oats for seed
leaving them in the wagon over night
In the morning but seventeen bushels
remained for sowing. Verify the bats
and ouls are a grand pest at this season
of the year.
The above named gentleman has on
his farm in this township young COW
with a we'll developed udder excepting
the teats which are absolutely non est.
1t is great curiosity to the natives but
a source of infinite disgust to her young
calf who is obliged to take his meals
away from home.

she told the other children to run out
and climb up on the house and examine
there. They took the ladder out with
them and as they did SO Mrs. d. jumped
down from the attic. She too went out
around the house and as she came back
heard Lee, the little boy, calling her.
She attempted to enter the room again
but was driven back by the fire that sud-

was cut of, and half distracted, the poor
woman started to run to Mr.. BARS, a

The charred remains of the unfortunate
boy were recovered and buried. The
family lost all their household furniture.
Mr.. Bair was around Mondry solicit
ing help for the unfortunate family, which
