The latest is from Mr. Andrew Gilchrist of Ceylon, who brought in last week a bunch of fall wheat measur- ing five feet in length. From all these evidences we may draw the conclusion that there will be a phenomenal growth of straw this year, whatever the yield of grain may be. Since writing the above Mr. Geo. Johnston of the Toronto line ha* handed us some whe»t four feet, six inches in length. And still they come ! Mr. Thomas Cooper, near Feversham, writes us of wheat four feet, one inch in length. We have received a booklet "Agricul- tural Temiscaming" published by the New Liskeard Board of Trade.

A Pretty Jane Wedding. A very pretty June wedding took placs ac tb« reakUnc* of Mi. CSutrles Bellamy of the suburbs on Wednesday afternoon of last week, when his fourth daughter, Frances Mary, was united in marriage to RdV. J. W. MUIer of Alberta, and whoa* parental home is at Jessopville. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. W. Coulter in absence at conference of the bride's pastor. Rev. Mr. Wellwood, in the presence of about sixty guests. The parlor was very handsomely decorated with flowers. Miss Laura Dunsmoor of Owen Sound, niece of the bride, acted as flower girl and carried a bouquet of pink daisies and white bridal roses. The bride looked exceedingly handsome in a dress of cream taffeta silk, trimmed with overjace and ruching and carried a bouquet of mixed roses and maidenhair fern. Her bridal veil was decorated with a wreath of orajge blossoms. The ceremony took place at 1 o'cleck, preceded with the Wedding March played by Miss Gertrude Bellamy, sister of the Oride. Just as the ceremony was about to begin a lengthy and nicely worded telegram was read from the bride's brother, Mr. Edgar Bellamy of Saskatoon, conveying hearty congratulation* to the bride and groom. After the oeremoi^ a choice wedding dinner was served. The bride's going away gown was of blue chiffon broadcloth with hat to match. The groom's gift to the bride was a gold watch with fob and to the flower girl a gold locket and chain. The happy couple left on the 4.30 train for Toronto, Buffalo and New Yo;k. Oo their return they will visit friends at Grand Valley, Tarbert. Jessopville and Shelbume. They leave about the 28th for Regina, and after spending a week with the bride's brother in Saskatoon they go to their future home in Banff, Alberta. Among the friends from a distance who attended the ceremony were : Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Miller, and Mr. and Mrs. Ben Miller, Jessopville ; Mr. and Mrs. Blair, Tarbert ; Mr. and Mrs. McVanel, Shelbume ; Mrs. E. E. Miller, Toronto ; Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Jones, Owen Sound ; Bfr. Fred Meredith, and Miss Georgina Hastie, Manitoulin Island ; Mr. and Mrs. N. G. Dunsmore, Owen Sound ; Mrs. (Rev.) Geo. Coulter. A JastifiaMe Hope Xh« Tucoolu Star Weakly gave an in- teraating report of the laying of Arte- maaia continuation school comer stone which may be considered very encourag- ing, having been written by a gentleman who would not be likely to engender hopes where such was not justified. Here is an excerpt from the article : " The purpose in the minds of the men who have been most active in promoting this action on the part of the people of Artemesia is to build and equip such a school as will naturaUy commend itself to the Provincial Government as a suitableâ€" and perhaps the first â€" place where there may be established one of thoee Agricultural High Schools which it is understood to be the intention of the Government to set up in various parts of the Province. Such an institution would work in harmony with the Guelph Agricultural College, and would do much to supplement its usefulne<e. Courage and foresight have been shown by the people of Artemesia in venturing so early into this field, but the wisdom of their action will probably be shown at an early day. From the remarks made by Hon. James Duff on the occasion, it seems fair to assume that the desires of the Flesher- t-r) people will be gradti&i , as, indeed they should be, net oLily because they have been first in the fieic with a f'.:ie building, but for the sounder reason that Che village is admirably situated to draw an attendance from a wide range of coun- try. At present the new bchool is called a Continuation School, or a Rural High School but it is hoped thai it will take on the character of an Agricultural High School, with one or more experts from Guelpn on the teaching staff â€" a direction which we may be sure education will take in the twentieth century."

Ma) Develop Eugenia Power Mr. Thomas McLauchlan, secretary of the Georgian Bay Power Company, was in town yesterday, accompanied by Mr. Robert.<<, a Cincinnatti engineer. The visit to this district was for the purpose of going over the ground at Eugenia Falls with a view to an early development of the power there. Mr. McLauchlan was in couaultatiou with Mr. W. P, Telford, president of the company, and the latter stated to the Sun representative that^he prospectsfor the power scheme were bright.
