PRECAUTIONS NEEDsry.-- We inti- mated in our last letter, that the ab- tending doctor had good hopes of re» covery of the little ones afflicted with diphtheria, in this he has been disap- pointed. On Saturday last Mr. Bed- ford's little daughter succumbed to the disease and on Sunday a. m. Mr. Slumskie's also died. M r. P. Bellinger’s youngest child has likewise contracted the disease. It is high time for the Board of Health to take a more deeid- ed stand in the matter and prevent the mingli 1g of families. Quarantine the several families who are suffering, and place guardians to strictly watch the premises and supply the necessary wants of the inmates. We understand a prominent official visited the village on Thursday last by request. After having inspected the infected places he arrived at the extraordinary fact that the disease was brought to the place by a certain woman from Berlin. The said odieial then returned from whence he came, without, as far as your corres- pondent could learn, giving any relie to the sufferers.

Dr. McEachern was soon in attendance and found one tooth gone and several more together with the jaw bone smashed in. Thel eye ball was also found to be punctur- ed as by the call; of the shoe, but for- tunately not so as to damage the sight. The Dr. succeeded in tying the other teeth together and so adjusting the broken jaw that hopes are entertained that he will be saved from serious dis- figurement, and at the time of writing the little fellow is reported doing as well as could be expected.

Sipes, County President in the chair. He briefly explained to non-thr- rival of the speakers of the day and then called upon I. E. Bowman, M, P. for North Waterloo. Mr. Bowman " ter a few remarks of a general character said that farmers were not as prosper ous as formerly owing to the low mar- kets the world over. While every oth. er tie and professions was uniting to promote its own interests he thought it was not only right but the duty of farmers to unite and meet to discuss the questions tsfiet> ting their own interests. In order to succeed at farming now-a-days educa- tion, intelligence and training were ab.. solutely necessary. Young men were too prone to leave what they too often chose to call the drudgery of farm life and to go into the city to stand behind the desk or counter thinking to make an easier living. But they will find that the farmer possesses more indepen- dence, better health and more of the comforts of life than his brother in the city or town, Making money on the offer the finest range of ORGANS AND PIANOS.
