break in the Magog dam illustrates the truthfulness of the adage that a chain is only as strong as its weakest link.The dam which holds back the immense storage of Lgke Memphremagog gives way, and the power at every other point on the river is weakened accordingly.The whole indicates the direct interest which the City of Sherbrooke and other power-holders have in the dam at the outlet of Lake Memphremagog, a dam which not only provides power for the Magog mills, but also ensures power for the many industries below.This interest is said to be recognized in a legal right which the city has to step in and repair and maintain the dam at Magog, if the interests at Magog fail to do so.Engineering ability of sufficient competence should be applied to the situation at Magog to make it impossible for a serious break to occur in this storage dam.Will Kaiser Please Say \u201cExcuse Me\u201d Do Not Forget the Hospital In these days when so patriotically and so properly supporting the various patriotic appeals connected with the war, there is a tendency td forget for the time being the old charities.Just now the Ladies\u2019 Committee of the Sherbrooke Hospital are calling for donations for the hospital counter at the Fair.It has been the custom of the public throughout the district to help this worthy undertaking.It is hoped that, in spite of the new calls, this year will not prove an exception.This worthy institution, since its reconstruction, is in a better position than ever to meet the requirements of the district in the matter of an up-to-date 'hospital.It is constantly filled I with patients, many of them unable to pay the regular charges.There is, therefore, greater need than ever for public support.This reminder is published feeling that to call public attention to the matter is all that is required to ensure the usual generous support for the Sherbrooke Hospital.University of Bishop\u2019s College Founded 1848.\tRoyal Charter 1853.LENP.IOXVIIJLE,

necessity of action in the Arabic case.The \"strict accountability\u201d and \"deliberately unfriendly\u201d warnings in the recent American notes are losing much of their force in the light of prospective developments.The facts relative to the sinking of the Arabic seem very clear.The Americans on board agree with the captain\u2019s report that the liner was sunk by torpedo without warning.It will not be difficult for Berlin, however, to deny that the boat was torpedoed and assert that she probably struck a mine.This will be enough to let Uncle Sam out.That the President will vigorously back up his warnings is not now-anticipated.Germany has been practically invjted to offer some excuse or explanation.The Kaiser\u2019s minions will not experience much difficulty in this.The general public is already viewing the Arabic case as closed.A Promising Year The reports from Bedford Fair tend to show that the war has in no degree interfered with the success of agricultural intfrests in Missis-quoi County.The harvest promises unusually well.And the fair itself, a pulse on agricultural conditions in any county, is well patronized, while the exhibits are satisfactory.Bumper crops are in order this year.When food will be so greatly needed, nature and the farmers are doing their best to' supply the demand, and this is particularly satisfying news.The world thankfully listens to the news from the harvesting fields, as it knows that the farmer alone can save the world at this time from absolute demoralization.The New School Books School of ihe

schools in Quebec Province has not been received with whole-hearted commendation.This is not a year when added expense of any kind is welcomed.The war has limited many incomes, the high cost of living has been felt by all, and among the poor any added expense in sending the children to school will make their attendance almost prohibitive.This year should have been allowed to pass without any unnecessary change in our school books.The word \u201cunnecessary\u201d is used advisedly, for most of the changes have not proved notable improvements over last year\u2019s text-books.They are \u201cchanges,\u201d but not, note-worthily, improvements.One need but to glance over them to see that the difference between last year\u2019s books and this year\u2019s is a mere difference between tweedle-dum and tweedle-dee, and rather in favor of tweedle-dum.It is said, though the lay mind can scarcely credit the discrimination, that Montreal need not make the changes in the text-books if educationalists prefer not.If this is true, if Montreal need not and we must, we are justified in asking why?The change most beneficial to our schools, in regard to text-hooks, would he standard and substantial books provided free to the children in our schools by the Board of Education.Changes in the nature of those authorized this year would not be so autocratically made if the Board paid the hills instead of the public.For, except in the advantage to the bookseller, the changes have little to recommend them.Sir Sam Hughes Canada\u2019s Minister of Militia will bring a brand new title home

(Montreal Trade Bulletin.) The Agricultural Department at Washington has upheld the Trade Bulletin in its contention that the, middleman is a necessity.This Department issued a statement last week which admits that every scheme that has been devised to bring the consumer and producer together in' order to dispense with the services of; middleman has failed and that he isj a necessity.The New York Packer of August 21et, has the following:\u2014After sever-; al years of experiment in trying to! devise some method of connecting the consumer with the producer, thus cutting the intermediate expense of dis-j tribution absorbed by the nalddleman, the Agricultural Department issued a statement this week that admits in substance that all th\u201d schemes that have been devised to effect this direct connection have failed in their pur pose and that the middleman is a no- ; c es Pity.It is a well known fact that the government at one time entertained the wish that th\u2019 parcel post would solve the problem.A trial Was made In a number of the larger market: | centers and every possible effort was i made by the Post Office Department ! to induce the consumer and the producer to get together, If there wasj ever any desire on the Part of the i producer to aid in making the scheme j a auccess he received practially no assistance from the consumer who' seems to prefer to pay the higher price for his foodstuffs at the corner grocery store and have it delivered ; at the residence on time and without ! trouble.The Post Office Department.! soon discovered while the consunur ' was doing considerable kicking about the high cost of living that when *t ! came to an actual test he didn\u2019t care t.a go to the trouble of reducing the j cost of living, and, furthermore, that bn as far as he had the natural right PAGE PRINTING 8 BINDING CO.3-5-7 ALBERT STREET, SHERBROOKE, QUE.Printing Loose Leaf Forms Ruling\tand Binders Blank Books\tPaper Boxes ONE OF THE MOST MODERN AND COMPLETE PLANTS IN CANADA PAGE PRINTING 8 BINDING CO.to buy where and from whom he saw fit there was no way of forcing him into a new scheme which ho didn\u2019t care to bother with.The last year the U.S.Agricultural Department, though its Bureau of Markets, has been trying to solve the question of distribution but experience this year in the cantaloupe and ' peach deals has undoubtedly taught the department that when there is an overproduction and that when more stuff is shipped into every market in the country than can be used, that it is just about as easy for one to lift himself by his boot strings as it is to hold prices up.TRENHOLM VILLE.The ice cream social held on the lawn of the Methodist Church under the auspices of the Young People\u2019s Society on Tuesday night was a de-cess.It being a fine warm night and a full moon, it drew out a large crowd and all enjoyed a good time, The Barnston Model School and the Way\u2019s Mills Consolidated School' will re-open on Tuesday.September 7th.with Miss Alice McCoy, graduate of Macdonald College, as principal of the former, and Miss Clernmner Converse , assistant, and Miss Flore, Paul.a.graduate of Macdonald, principal of latter, with Miss Grace Libby as assistant.Grades X.academy, the model and elementary grades will be taught.Tuition in the model dept., 80c.a month.Pupils from a distance can obtain board or rooms at reasonable rat us.\tB.E.Converse, chairman : N.Corey, Sec'y Treas.Barnston.August 13, 1915.with plenty of ice cream and cake, and a short programme wn* also' rendered in the church.Brocceda amounted to $19.50.The school in District No.5, Cleveland, reopens on Monday, Aug-, i, with Misr ust 30, for the fall term, Haael j.Bomrt juj tsacher, is 015 8602 SHERBROOKE DAILY RECORD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 28, 1915.SEE OUR IS At Huebeoind Sherlraoke Fairs BritishBuilt Write for Catalogue to Dept.R R.A, Lister 81 Co., Limited 4 St.Joseph SS.QUEBEC.Head Canadian Office, 58-60 Stewart St.TORONTO OPERATIONS AT LENNOXYUE EXPERIMENTAL FARM .~\"T ' Notes on Experiments in Forap Crops and Horticulture.Importance of Root Seed and Alfalfa Productoa Possibility of Home Grown Flower Seeds.HD ME FAipSW Questions of Interest Discussed by Breeders and Others Live Poultry WANTED ~ Chickens from 2 lbs.up are now the most desirable size, also 1,000 good fat hens wanted for our present market.Write us for prices.E.T» Poultry Farms, Ltd.Foster, que.- Kidney Troy blé?YODR HORSE CURED at Cougba.Glandsrs, brqken-wtsi, worms.skiii-Giseases.etc.Oood strong tonic for the blood.tones up tie horse and keeps it healthy.Price.50c.a bottle.ON 3-ALE EVERYWHERE.(Set all information from J.R.MORIN.Wh'l.- .'

rounding district will consider the j farm as their own and take full ad-! vantage of the facilities .provided for 'assisting them in all matters pertaining to agricultural production.Everything on the farm is looking well at the present time and the horticultural division in which the ladies especially take a keen interest is alone worth inspection.The following article gives some idea of what is being accomplished in the forage crops and horticultural departments, lit was written on the occasion of a ! recent visit by a Record representative and will be followed at a future I date with another article dealing with general farm crops.FORAGE CROP DEPARTMENT In the forage crop department, which is under the charge of Mr.St.Marie, experiments are being carried on with 15 varieties of turnips, 12 , varieties of mangels, 7 varieties of I carrots, 8 varieties of grasses, and two varieties of clovers and alfalfas.The turnips and mangels used in these experiments were grown in the season of 1914, stored in the root cellar and transferred in the spring of 1913 to the ground they at present occupy.Quite a large quantity ! of root seed has been harvested from theseijPoots.Every farmer should endeavor to grow some root seed on his farm in the coming year.While .the stafl is not yet prepared to give any result as to the germination test of the seed grown, they are fairly .confident it will prove satisfactory.CORN TEST3 Tests are being made with fourteen I varieties of silage corn to determine which varieties will prove the best suited to the conditions of this loc-|ality for silage purposes.Three Flint varieties of corn for seed purposes are also being tried out to determine their productivity, earliness of maturity and quality of grain.The area devoted to experiments in forage I crops and corn is three acres.NECESSITY OF ROOT SEED PRODUCTION.One of the main features of the ex-; periments in root seed production is j to encourage the people to go into ; this branch of the work on account of the coming shortage of root seed caused by the war in Belgium and Flanders, where a large amount of roots were being grown and large quantities of root seed were being produced.This source of supply upon which the American and Canadian people depended has been cut off through the devastation of these territories, and consequently they imust turn to home production.The results of all the tests will be j recorded this fall and published in i the Annual Reports of the Experi-| mental Farms, copies of which may I be procured by anyone upon making application to the Department of Agriculture at Ottawa.The records of the yield per acre of all varieties I may also be seen at the farm later on.This is the first attempt at the I^nnoxville station in this work as a start was only made to prepare the land in May last and the sowing of the seed took place the first week in June.EXPERIMENTS IN GRASSES Experimental work is being carried on with the different grasses to determine which grasses will best adapt themselves in combination with clover, or for hay production and for grazing purposes.ALFALFA GROWING Up to the present some difficulty has been experienced in growing alfalfa in this district and In fact throughout the Eastern Townships, and an attempt Is being made at the farm to grow It and to get, a strain that will winter successfully.From these strains which winter successfully some seed may be obtained which will prove much better suited to the district than commercial or imported seed.HORTICULTURAL DEPARTMENT This department is in charge of Mr.Ritchie.The area devoted to horticultural work is altogether 84 acres.Two large orchards were planted in the spring oi 1 '15, comprising an area of 24 acres in all.; One of these orchards contains 14 ! acres and is known as the variety orchard, the object of which is to test out different varieties of apple trees to determine which variety will be best suited to conditions in the Eastern Townships.One hundred and : thirty-four varieties have been planted, all of which up to the present have done well; a large number of ; these trees are new productions from : the Central Experimental Farm at ' Ottawa.None of these trees have I been tested at any other experimental station and it is hoped,to find certain individual trees among these which will prove more suitable to the conditions than the ordinary commercial varieties1 of apples heretofore planted in this locality, A number of varieties of grapes have been planted out to determine which will stand the winter here and prove their adaptability to the home gardens.The results of the experiments will : be given out at a later date.The cultural orchard has an area of ten acres.In this orchard a number of cultural experiments will be tried out with the same varieties of apples but with different methods of cultivation.The object of this experimentation is to find which orchard practice will he best suited to local conditions.A system of inter-croping will be practiced in certain plots to prove to the agriculturist that it is possible to grow crops to advantage in the orchard without materially injuring the trees.At present cover crops have been sown to ripen the wood of the voung trees planted in the spring of 1915 so that these trees will go into winter conditions with well ripened wood.For cover crops Essex rape has been used and up to the present has made splendid growth; rape being a gross feeder on moisture will check the wood growth of the trees and cause them to ripen up.In the cultural orchard a splendid crop of Marquis wheat was grown this season showing that other crops can be grown in the orchard without doing damage to the trees.FLOWER GARDENS Approximately two acres of land has been devoted to flower gardens and vegetable plots.The flowers which have been grown here this season are well adapted to beautifying the home surroundings.The object of.this work is to bring before the people the utility of these beautiful flowers in making their home surroundings more cheerful.A number of perennial flowers which wintered successfully and bloomed freely this season were allowed to go to seed, the object of which is to place before the people the possibility of growing flower seeds right here at home.The germination test of the seeds grown this season gave 100 per cent, germination.This goes to prove that home grown seed is without question far superior to any imported or cormnercial seeds and it is to be hoped from this little de-; monstration the people of the Townships will endeavor in the coming season to grow seeds of the various flowers to sow in their own gardens.Flower seed growing in the.Eastern Townships can without doubt be made quite a profitable .busin-ess.At a later date when all the seeds from all the flowers have been I harvested the superintendent of the farm plans to send out mixed packages of seed to those who make application for the same.Notice of j this distribution will be given in the j columns of the Record and it is hop-' ed that many who are interested in flower growing will take advantage ; of this great opportunity.VEGETABLE GARDENS A number of varieties of cabbage, cauliflower, beets and other vegetables have been tried out in the vegetable plots.Experiments were carried out for the control of the (The Record would direct the atten-j tion of the Fanners\u2019 Clubt to this : column.It is open for news In connection with the club collectively or individually.This will make a good medium, whereby the different dubs can leam of what is going on In like organizations throughout the Townships.Notices of meetings and reporte of the same will be publish-1 ed in this column.It Is open also to the free discussion of all matters p*r< taining *0 the farm.THE OOLT AND\u2019HIS KEEP.Editor Record.Dear Sir:\u2014Reading your interesting new column on Agriculture, 1 which you say is open to discussion, would you allow me to answer in a few words to an article entitled \u201cThe Colt Must Earn Its Keep.\u201d It is true that, at the present cost [ of feed, a colt at five years of age ! has cost its owner a nice sum, and jas near as I can figure, I dare say, j $200, properly kept, and counting the ' fee of the sire and lost time of the 'mother while nursing.In order to i earn that much, a colt would have to do more work than recommend-able for its proper development.A horse not being an adult before the age of five years, his bone tissue has not attained its density and hardness until that age, and if asked to draw heavy loads before that time there is danger for spavins, I Bene or Bog, and ringbones.If asked to use all the benefit of its feed in iworking, there is nothing left for helping the growth of the animal, which accounts a great deal for so many big-headed, small horses, and therefore horses that bring small prices.As for feeding, how many colts are fed as they ought to be?The most are wintered on straw, and never see grain until they are 4 years old, and.then are started very often on too much of it.It is nroved that a 11,000-lb- horse will do setter on 3 quarts of oats than it will on 4 quarts, because at that size the stomach has the capacity of digesting perfectly and easily that quantity.Whatever more is fed requires a certain effort of the system, which j is made at the expense of assimilation, which tires the stomach and wastes expensive grain.My opinion ; is that if the raising of horses for market does not pay, it is more due .to the improper way in which it is 1 done, than to the high cost of feed.Good horses are worth more money to-day than ever, if offered to the right buyer, and if does not cost any more to keep a good horse than it does for a poor one.If farmers used good sound mares as breeders, j and bred them to sound stallions of the same class, gave their mares a good rational care during pregnancy THE PREMIES CREAM SEPARATOR ALL BRITISH SjgaigLBSKlES Id.T.'-lA'-.K- Constructed entirely in the largest and best equipped separator factory in the British Empire.Highly finished throughout, efficient and built to last.It is easy to operate, and easy to clean, and once set up requires no further adjustment.See our exhibit at Quebec or Sherbrooke Fairs and Igpl nvestigate the machine for yourself.THE PREMIER CREAM SEPARATOR COMPANY Toronto, Ont., St.John, N.B., and 4 St.Joseph St.Quebec.2S37 A.$ Worth of SHERBROOKE FAIHIRIP TICKETS for a S This would be a $ well spent, and you could take four of your friends with you all for a $.Many $\u2019 are badly invested but in this instance you\u2019ld get more than a $\u2019 worth of pleasure.Every day from now till the night of 1st Sept, will be $ Day with us, but it would give us much pleasure to sell you a $ Strip on either of the real $ Days.Remember that these tickets, when detached from the $ Strip, are perfectly good.There\u2019s a $ Strip Ticket Agency in your town\u2014 look it up and get your $ worth.If you are not near an agent send me your $ (with return postage) and the tickets will be mailed to you at once.j.c.McConnell OPTICIAN 135 Wellington St.\tSherbrooke, Que.;

on the\u2019 farm to keep free of weeds is the permanent pasture.A man r.ry succeed in keeping his hoed crop clean, his hay and grain fields may be mo-, dels as far as freedom from noxious, weeds is concerned, but the permanent pasture may tell a different tale.Canadian thistles, milk weeds, flea-bane, ox-eye daisy, itn hawk weeds, rib grass, and rmny others are very often found in large quantities, in a' Pasture.Th : other day we passed a| farm where the pasture was Particularly bad with many weeds, but the owner was taking time by the fore- i lock, and, between the showers which1 prevented him from cultivating his : corn and root crop, he was running! the mower over the field and cutting j everything clean.As far as the pasture grass itself is concerned this, 0f j course, is not to be recommended, but most of the weeds in this particular Pasture were annuals, and those of course, would be killed by the cutting! as they they only produce from seed.| Then, too, all the perennials that were beginning to bloom, would be j cut ip time to prevent their seeding the whole going to insure a nrwch cleaner pasture another year.This practice of cutting is one to be re- ! commended, as a dirty pasture field i On Arms.Would Tingle and Itch.In One Great Mass, Used Cuti-cura.Rash Disappeared.So.Buxton, Ont.\u2014\u201cMy skin trouble started about seven years ago.My arras began to tingle and itch.A watery looking rash, very fine and close together, would break out every summer.It would itch and burn as the trouble progressed and it became worse -when I scratched it.It looked ashy and scaly and in one great mass.My arms were so disfigured I could not wear short sleeves.I could not help scratching it all the time.\u201cAt last I saw the advertisement of Cuti* cura Soap and Ointment.I used only two cakes of Soap and one box of Ointment and in less than six weeks the rash had all disappeared.\u201d (Signed) Mrs.Andrew John*, ston, May 29, 1914.Sample Each Free by Mall With 32-p.Skin Book on request.Address post-card \u201cCutic.ira, Dept.D, Boston, II.S.A.\u201d Sold throughout the world.¦u fhts are enjoyed by those in good health.The perfect digestion, clear system, and pure blood upon which sound health depends, will be given you by BEECHAlffS PILLS Largest Sale of Any Medicine in the World Sold everywhere.la bole., 25 ceata may mean seeding a large part of farm to bad weeds.The mo could profitably be used on mort our dirty pastures.I Ortea.p Rates on all Railroads TO .-.Canada\u2019s Great Eastern Exhibitlsn StierLsrooRe, Que.September 4 to lltti.

communication I confined myself to Brome county for the reason that I have every evidence at my command to back up my conten- 1 tions.It is not necessary to go to Kansas or Colorado or British Columbia or Russia for subject matter, it is Brome County and the Scott Act that we have to deal with.I jam reluctant to quote from newspapers, as \u201cpaper talk\u201d or \u201cdrummer's yarns\u201d have but little influence with the public, and can be manufactured for the occasion.I assert that I can prove that there is less liquor sold under license than under local option, that there is less evidence of it on the streets and in public generally than during local option, One of the leading W.C.T.U.ladies of Brome stated after the Scott Act had been repealed, as follows: \u201cI see a marked difference, loss disturbance, less indications of drunkenness and would regret to go back to those unpleasant times.\u2019\u2019 I quote from a reformed heavy drinker: \u201cIt was a good thing the Scott Act was repealed, it was simply free trade in whiskey\u2019\u2019; and from another now reformed: \u201cI took my, first drink from a bottle during Scott Act.\" I am of the opinion that newspaper contlroversies accomplish but little and am reluctant to occupy valuable space and was inclined to let the matter drop until a prominent clergyman approached me with the following: \u201cI was pleased to see your views in the Record,i they are mine exactly.There is a side to the question that some are inclined to forget which I well remember.\u2019\u2019 Many of the temperance agitators are inclined to quote from newspapers, statistics and other statements, As I am justified in following their example here follows:\t) \u201cPerhaps the President of the Dominion Alliance or the editor of the Pioneer will inform the public of Canada what a blessing prohibition has been to a little town called Commerce, situated a few miles south of Lethbridge, In case these gentlemen might not wish to take too much credit for the result of the operations of their pet hobby in that district we might say that the blessings might he summarized as follows: \u201cThe whole town council arrested.\u201cTwo Councillors fined in the aggregate $785 for selling liquor without a license.\u201cThe village constable fined $100._ \u201cCase against the rest still pending.\u201cThese are just a few of the benefits that have accrued to town of Commerce as the result of local option.The whole town has been corrupted, blind pigs flourish in every hole and corner, disorderly houses were abundant.The town council not only countenanced the illegal selling but actively took part In the business, the town was a veritable hell in the basement.\" That is what local option did for the town of Commerce.Can it be said that that is a better condition of affairs than the liquor trade regulated by Government license ?The two conditions are not comparable and should be a warning to all municipalities contemplating taking the advice of fanatics and fadists.Local option ruined the town of Commerce, from a well living community it.developed into a hotbed of corruption and vice.Mr.Lambly referred to the prohibition of vodka by the Russian Government.I wonder if Mr.Lambly has not heard {that tho prohibition ukase against all alcoholic liquors1 has been modified by the Russian government and permission to manufacture beer and wine has been granted, and the troops allowed to have their daily rations of beer, and the Russian army doctors recommend the couces- Church

The residents along the river road j from Melbourne to L'Avenir, have heard, and in some cases setn a large auto going towards Drummond ville, j about three nights a week passing I through this place, nearly midnight returning about dawn.It carries no ! lights and one person who saw it re-; turning in the morning, avers it car-! ried no number.The car usually contains four men.The question naturally arises.Why does the car carry no lights ?Why does it go at night ?Where does it start and where is its destination ?And what is its business ?The car made its midnight trip Monday night about the usual time.Are the authorities asleep ?This has been going on for over a month.RIVER ROAD RECONSTRUCTED Kirkdale, August, 28 \u2014(Special) \u2014 The river road in the municipality of Melbourne and Brompton Gore, north of Melbourne Village to the Ulverton Line, has just gone through a complete remodelling under the capable management of Lounclllor J.J.Weed.The road has been in a very had condition, full of stones and holes, the latter caused entirely by the autos.In its flat ditchless state covered with mud and water after heavy rains, nothing could he worse for either teamsters or pedestrians.The municipal council therefore instructed Mr.Weed to go ahead and make a good highway.Mr.Pd.Pox-: trader proved a most efficient man on the road machine, and despite the threats of a local \u2018medico\u2019 the work was carried through to a successful finish.EGAD WORK AT C0ATIC0QK Ciiairman of Committee Refused to Carry Out Resolution of tire Council MEN OF TOWN APPEALED TO TO DO MORE WORK\u2014 PATRIOTIC ASSOCIATION Coaticook, August 28 \u2014(Special)\u2014 A jitney automobile service was inaugurated in Coaticook on,Thursday, it was only for the day, however.The occasion was a patriotic tea, given by some of the ladies at the golf club house and in order to convey citizens to and from the club house, a jitney service was inaugurated.It did a good business, too.It was something new and the cause appealed.The result of the tea and automobile service was something over 825.00 in addition to the patriotic fund of the town.Every Business Is Year We give the biggest Dollar\u2019s worth for a Dollar Î RSTAFt CIXrrHINO HAUL.OSEMBLOOIVI THE STOKE TMAT SETS THE HACK AUTO KEN PEDDLER HAD HAKE COMPLAINT NO LICENCE APPEAL TO THE MEN Speaking of patriotic funds, it is thought and rightly too, that Coaticook has not done its part in donating to the patriotic fund proper.It is the men that are at fault in this connection.Most of the patriotic work in Coaticook has been done by the women and with the exception of the Belgian fund, the men have not taken much part in raising money.This fact has been brought to the attention of the town through a letter written by Sir Herbert Ames, the Honorary Secretary of the Pa-| triotic Society for the Dominion.It | is likely that as a result measures ! will be taken now to interest the men in this matter and secure such contribution for this fund, as it merits ! and as the people of Coaticook ! should pay.AIMU CO.w SUEZ CANAL LEADS PANAMA THRICE THE SHIPPING AND FOUR TIMES THE RECEIPTS OF AMERICAN WATERWAY.Waahdn^ton, Aug.28.\u2014The Suez «Canal passed «three and two-fifths as many Ships as used the, Panama Can-el lâfft year and the receivers tolls were tour and five-eights times t|e re eeipts of the Panama Canal during the first yearns operation of the latter.The Panama Canal was placed in tsoHjSOMrcial operation on Aug.15, 19i4.The first year\u2019s business closed ivUlr receipts from tolls of 85,216,-149, representing the passage oi 131?ocean-going vessels of a gross t lowing : Tobacco, Pipes, Cigars, Candy, etc.$364.6b Fixtures .16.38 $881.06 Book Debts .$412.87 Terms erf Sale : Cash.The store will be open for inspection, Wednesday, September 1st, 1915, and for all other information apply to ALLAIRE & LEBLANC.,\tCurators, No.87 Wellington Street, Sherbrooke, Que.J.P.JUTRAS, Auctioneer.INSOLVENT NOTICE In the matter of A.F.HAMEL, Merchant.Magog, Que.The undersigned will sell by Publia Auction at No.87 Wellington Street.Sherbrooke, Que., Thursday, Septembetl 2nd, 1915, at 2 o'clock p.m., the following : Stock of Furniture and Household Furnishing .$796.89 Fixtures .122.00 $918.89 Book Debts .$890.f Terms of Sale : Cash.The store will be open for inspectio-Wednesday, September l^t, 1915, ai for all other information apply to ALLAIRE & LEBLANC.Curator No.87 Wellington Street, Sherbrooke, Que.«L P.JUTRAS, Auctioneer.HARBOR AND TRUST NOT I hereby notify and forbid all peraonS agalnat harboring or trusting my hus* band on my account as I shall pay ne» bills of hie contracting (without my dal order) after this date.MRS.E.F.JACKMAN.Sutton, Que.August 27th.\t191g.r COOKSHIRE.Mr.Harvfiy and baby Jennie and Mrs.Jas.Neill have returned to their home In Granby after spending a few days with Mrs.A.McVetty.SAFETY FIRST Would not a deposit In a strong bank tn a neutral country be a good Insurance FOR YOU against possible loss from business do-pression at other unforeseen events 7 All checks taken at par.A P.c.interest guaranteed, 4 p.c.Mali us your deposits.ORLEANS TRUST GO.NEWPORT, VERMONT.J 41 \u2022«-\u2022.\u2019t Hudson Gar at a Bargain $750.00 to the man who eomei» first.C.H.WELSH, Waterloo, Que.PRESIDENT susfeifli NONE-SO-EnSV tdADE'lNCPvHROA ¦ jr Right on Wellington St, Run Your Cars in When Shoppino Sangsier\u2019s Oarage and Machine Shop 9 Albert St.Phan* "]
