It is time, however, that the public should be acquainted with th*^ actual condition of atfairs. The Col company of Brantford, have been indu.striously drilling away on the L>>ver farm, eafit back line, and on Friday evening last Mr. Coi brought The Advance a bottle of the balings which showed considerable petroleum in the mixture and smelled strongly of the qrude oil. He expected to hit it better within a few days, and was very much eldted at the prospect. The drill, accord- to his siaieraenr, was down 1300 feet. The Midland drill has bad eooj^idenble trouble with quicksand and is not yet down 200 feet. This i» a private enter- prise but the company holds a 'wge number of options.

In our huny last week we overlooked mentioning that Messrs.

On Thanksgiving day Dundalk citizena- and holiday visitors were treated to exhibitions of tlying with some additional thrills which were not <m the progiam- The first air visitor came from the south and passed over the towd at a height of about 4000 feet according bo the aviator's register. The clouds weie broken and patchy and the plane was often lost to view by the lower banging clouds. But there wa* enuut'U blue sky to get a good view and for the birdmaa to see those red s«nt:iiel gasoline pump*,, for he waa getting a little short of gas,, having made thj trip from Toronto.

Ue got up' oood speed but the machine crashed into a rail fence at 1 he end of the tieia and wis a c mplete wreck. The plane turi.ed a litlf somersault. The throng .of spectators were greatly relieved to see the aviator crawi out of the delris and find that he had no bonts broken. Ue hid a bad tut on the left eye and waa soon taken to D:'.
