It^O^^O^^'O^O^Oi MARKDALE Mr. Bickerdilic's cigavctto bill liasj been supprcseed by the Bpcaker of lliO| llourcof Commons. There was aj delegation of ladies present from the 1 AV. C. T.U. at the time, nud thcirj looks of contempt for the Bpeakeij when he prouoiiiiccd his liat would | have made them good subjects to photograph. The Speaker lias earned llio contempt of more than the few disgusted ladies present. He did for the government what it did not dure do for itself. The thirty-third annual repot C of the I'jiitomological Society of Ontario lists 158 insects which are moro or loss injurious to farmers and frttit, (^'rowers. To the casual thinker it is almost a wonder that any tiling greciii is left growing above or under ground, but there arc natural parasites which l.eep many of tliem in check and the f.irmer and fruitgrower are last learn- ing to do tlio rest, so that things are u )t so bad as one might imagine from the immenso number ofenemies which', lire built to feed iipou those who till the soil. Few people know, that a man, bulk for bulk, is stronger than an ox, but ita|i- pears that such is Mie ea.se. The matter was tested not long since at a fair ill America, one of the attractions of which was a contest of a yoke of oxen against 'Jii equal weight of men. A drag was loaded wiih granite blocks, weighing in the aggregate 4,959 pounds. The yoke of moil tl'.at made tlio trial weighed 3,220 pounds and 20 men allowing KiO pounds to a man, were set against them. 'J'lie men look hold of the drag first and walk- ed oil' with it, covering a distance of Ho feet in tho space of two inimites. The oxen at their trial moved only 80 feet in the same length of time, and the men weie accordingly declared winuera. ^1 The Gamey cufc is to bo wotmd up this week and the people nro not Korry. Tho public's head isiichiiig m the vain endeavor lo unravel tlie con- llicting story and reconcile any theory that has been advanced. Wo believe that at the present moment the gen- eral opinion is that neither parly lias :uiy reason to crow over the position ill which ho finds himself, and thero| is a possibility that both of lliei principals may bo relegated to private! life. Tho facta may be clearer to th&{ judges sitting on tlie ca.se, and llieyl may be able to make a iiiiding, bull there are few people who have follow- j cd the case that could, from the' tiviJence.pronounco a clear judgement; based on proven facts. The perjury which lias figured in this ca.'?o is! Bomothing to make angola weep, and ' both of the principals appear to think I that liio spppression of "forgetting' of fdclB ia qi)itQ josiiflablo.
