“TOBACCO GROWING IN ONTARIO

The impetus given tobacco grovy-
ing in Ontario during the past three
years due to the increased demand
and prices paid has caused quite an
expansion in this line of farmin
Naturally many new growers have
come into the field and their tenr-
dency is to produce as large a crop
as possible. Howeyer, on account of
the shortage of labor the expansion
in acreage is necessarily limited and
a greater production of tobaeco will
depend largely upon each grower ob
taining larger yields from the saine
acreage than have formerly been
produced. Bulletin 41, Second Ser-

MIXED WEDDINGS.

An editor, who had been imbibing
too freely in hard cider, recently got
2 marriage notice and a sale bill
mixed up as follows

William, only son of Mr. and Mrs.
Josiah Smith, was disposed of at
public auction to Luey Anderson,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel
Anderson on my farm one mile east
of this place in the presence of sey-
eral guests, including the following,
to-wit: Two mules, 2 head of cattle.
Rey. Johnson tied the knot averaging
1,250 pounds on hoof. The beauti-
ful home of the bride was tastefully
decorated with Siwash clam spades,
a sulky rake, one set of double har-
ness nearly new, and just before the
ceremony was pronounced, Mendels-
sohn’s inspiring march was softly
given by one cow five years old, one
Jersey to be°fresh in April carrying
a bunch of flowers in her hand and
looking charming in her gown made
of light spring wagon, 6 boxes of ap-
ples, 3 rakes of hay, 1 grindstone,
mousseline de soi trimmed with about
a hundred bushels of spuds. The
groom is well known and has always
stood well in society circles of 12
Berkshire hogs, while the bride is ac-
complished and a talented teacher of
Poland Chinas, pedigree furnished if
desired. Among the many beautiful
