November '26, 1924 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE AMy Heron Writes From Shackleton, Sask. Describes The Wheat Pool Which Is Now In Operation U. F. W J^Meeting On Thui-sday, November 13th the Holdfast U.F.W.O. club meeting, held at Mrs. Edgar Patterson's home on No Cattle On Highways Shackelton, Sask. Dear Friend: â€" 1 am sending you my subscrip- tion to the Advance which we look home paper. There is always some- forward to every week, as it is our thing in it for us and I thought I wuuld write you a few lines to let you know that we have not forgotten Flesherton and the East yet. We had rather a dry summer up, ,. , . ^, • , i here this year, but our crops were regarding cattle or other animals al- not too bad for all that. Our sum- "^ed to roam at will on the highway, mer-fallow turned out fourteen bush-!'- "^^r the ciicums ances there is els to the acre and our stubble land nothing for him to do but obey ord- ers. Formerly the fine for this off- ence was $2.00 per head, but in the future the fine will be $5.00 per head and costs. Besides being a nuisance to tratric, iinimals running at large are a real danger, and it is with the intention of eliminating this danger that the department has decided to enforce this regulation more strictly. Farmers throughout the Province, too, have lost quite a lot of money through having animals killed, and the enforcement of the law will help them more finnncially than they could gain by having their stock picking up a precarious livelihoo<l along the roadside. â€" Mt. Forest Confederate. most of the fanners have to sell in the fall after they thresh as they can't do without money. In the fall the wheat is always the lowest in price at any time of the year, and selling throuflrh the open market when he sells, is all that he gets f or ^ ",^^, 'jj^ concession, was very largely his wheat.

We belong to the wheat pool and get 81% cents per bushel when we sell at Shackle- ton station and we expect to get an- other payment in February or March and the final payment about July, so that we will Inave some money com- ing three time.s in a year. That will bv a good thing for the fanners, as Weill as for the business men. One thing with the wheat pool is that the farmer can sell as soon as he threshes ! or any time he likes in the year, and ; he gets the same price as the man who sells in the fall, winter or spring, so that makes it good for all the farmers.

The book represents years of effort, typographically and pictorially, it is a "maslerpiece." From cover to cover it is embellished with group pictures of championship teams fromm 1888 to 1924, in fact, the history of Can- ada's Great National Winter Sport is told in pictures. Old-timers will be interested in the handsome halftones of the teams who were prominent a generation ago^ while the younger enthusiasts will en- joy the reproductions of the more re- cent winners.

Mrs. John Spanhouse Is 100 Years Old Public Reception Given Her At Creemore Mrs. John Spanhouse, who has liv- ed under five sovereigns, celebrated her hundredth anniversary on Mon- day, November 10. A public reception in her honor was held in Allen's Hall, Creemore, and an address congratu- lating her on attaining her centenary was presentied. She was also made the recipient of a purse of gold. Mrs. Spanhouse was born a hun- dred years ago in York Mills. When eighteen, then Sarah Villier, she mar- ried John Spanhouse and occupied a farm near whre Unionville now is lo- cated. Seven girls and two boys were born there, the only surviving being Mrs. Robert Lougheed of Cal- gary, and Mrs. Wm. Veitch of Cree- more, with whom Mrs. Spanhouse new resides. In 1855 the family sold their prop- erty in York County and moved to the south line of Osprey Town^ip, in this county, near the present village of Badgeros. The journey was made by rail to Collingwood, all their ef- fects, including a team of horses, coming in a box car. Incidentally this was the first year of the opera- tion of the old Northern line from Toronto to Collingwood, and the team of horses above referred to were the first owned in that portion of Grey County to which they moved. Collingwood, 18 miles away, was the nearest source of supplies, and on more than one occasion Mrs. Span- house walked this distance when the horses were busy clearing the land. With the exception of a little rheu- matism Mrs. Spanhouse has never been sick in her long life and has never taken medicine. To-day, after passing the one hundredth milestone, she rises early and dresses, insists on making her own bed, eats well, reads some every day and takes an interest in the social happenings of the village. Three 'weeks ago she went to the poll and cast her vote, probably being the oldest voter in Ontario.

HILL & Co., Limited, Markdale I On lake Nemi, a few miles from Rome, the Emperor Tiberias had a picturesque barge, or floating palace of a size that surpassed any other vessel of ancient times. Magniflcent itself, it contained treasures of art from every comer of the Roman Em- pire and is believed still to contain most of them where it lies buried in the mud at the bottom of the lake. The Italian government now proposes to raise the barge or to get at it by draining the lake. It believes that there is a good chance of recovering objects for art that would make even the treasures of the tomb of TSitank- hamun appear insignificant.
