"Abendlied" by Schamann, and a mazurka by Zarzycki were her first numbers, the latter giving her an opportunity to display her mastery of her instrument, of which she did not fail to take advantage. She was reâ€" called, and responded with Hubay‘s ‘*Scene de la Csarda" in a very praceâ€" ful style. Miss Street was even more successful in her second number, "Calâ€" abrese," by Bazzini, when she was again compelied to respond to an enâ€" thusiastic encore, The Concert to be given in the Town Hall, Berlin, on Thursday evening, January 10th, promises to be a great success, The Waterloo list of subscribâ€" ers already numbers over 100 seats and the canvass in Berlin is meeting with like encouraging success. Emiâ€" nent artists have been engaged, includâ€" ing Mr, Harold Jarvis of Detroit, the famous tenor, and Miss Evelyn de Laâ€" tre Street, the noted violiniste. Mr. Harold Jarvis is too well known to reâ€" quire any mention here; of Miss Street‘s ability the Toronto Mail, in its issne of Dec. 15th, says : It is hoped that as early as possible in the coming year a branch willrbe extended a considerable way down king street and also one along William street and thereby get rid of what has been for several years a disgusting eye sore and a nuisance to the health of the residents of that locality. J. H. Wesn, Medical Health Officer. Waterloo, Dec. 31, 1894 The Board during the pa..;r. summer decided upon testing the milk supplied to the town at regvlar intervals with the result that in no instance has the amount of butter fat been below the Government standard. I desire again to urge on the Board the great necessity of diminishing the number of privy pits and the adoption as far as possible of dry eath closets, or connection with the system of sewerâ€" age as soon as practicable, The sysâ€" tem prevailing, which is almost univerâ€" sal, is fraught with the most serious danger to the public health. _ _ The citizens have reason to congratâ€" ulate themselves on having adopted a system of sewerage, the) trunk sewer being completed and the farm well: on the way to receive the sewage of the town. (Our Sanitary Inspector has been dilâ€" igent. â€" He has attended to the general surface cleaning, has made a house to house inspection, and «ttended to comâ€" plaints regarding nuisances. This toâ€" gether wich a more thorough cleaning up and the removal of garbage and other obnoxious substances in the early spring is no doubt in some measure reâ€" sponsible for this satisfactory report. There has been no epidemic of infecâ€" cious diseases durirg the year, One case of diphtheria and a few cases of mild typhoid have been reported. In cases of measles or scarlet fever the public should bear in mind that these are preventible diseases and the more thoroughly the Board of Health perâ€" form their duties and the stronger the support _ given _ the _ Board _ by the Council and the citizens the greater will be our freedom from this class of diseases in the future. _ _ The mortality rate of the town shows a decided improvement over that of 1X03, the number of deaths reported to the registrar being 20, or on the tasis of the last census less than 61 per thousand of the populationâ€"â€"probâ€" ably a lower death rate than that of any other town in the Province.

M 1 NEW PEA MBU KR GUsOo0 PRESTON A s acclamation __I do not wish to be understood that the country is perfect. There are many inconveniences which pioneer life offers; but taking all things into consideration We were somewhat amused of late to hear that our supply of food was rathâ€" er scant and that some times we had no flour or bread in the house. Weil I hope it will never come to that, and am glad to say that so far we bad all that was necessary. We bave a runâ€" ning supply of meat and a variety at that,ffas the bluffe are full of rabbits and now and then we are able to capâ€" ture & deer (4 so far in this neighborâ€" hood.) It is considered nothing great when a man goes eight miles for a load of wood, chops it, and then shoots enough rabbits to last him a week, in the same day; but in Waterloo,Co. when two hunters are out two days and sucâ€" ceed in getting 6 rabbits it has to .apâ€" pear in public print. The climate we believe is healthy alâ€" though it sometimes reaches the 45th d:gree below zero in winter,and in sumâ€" mer 95 to 100 degrees ; it is dry and clear. Our crops this year averaged 20 bush. to the acre on first breaking. The ranchmen have their cattle out all winter, and they must shift for themselves, but the Ontario people feed theirs for three or four weeks and have increased their flow of milk but are now out again. This is considered an open winter so far, The grass is very nutriâ€" tious which can be seen by the amount of work being done by a yoke of cattle which wholly live on it, and also by the fattened cattle which neither see stable nor feed, and dress from 700 to 1000 lbs. of beef. The soil is a black loam varying from 6 to 24 inches in depth with a heavyclay subsoil which is essenâ€" tial for retaining moisture and beneath that rock is struck quite frequently in digging welle‘. There is a fair supply of fuel here, (we got our supply 8 miles west of us) and also building logs and fence rails can be had if we gol5 miles west, | Each settler has a permit for so many. A permit costs 25cts.for which we get as follows : 1800 feet of buildâ€" ing logs,200 roof poles,1200 fence rails, 30 cords of dry wood. We have no coal worth while, nearer than 35 miles, distant where we can get them for $1.00 per load,but there are a few indications near by but as yet of no accreunt. In October we had the last rain, folâ€" lowed by a little snow which soon disâ€" appeared. A!l through the fall was fine as we were not hindered by tha frost _ from ploughing _ until the 14th of November, when we were suddenly stopped by a snow storm and since then the weather has been fair. The thermometer was down to 6 degrees below zero for a few days,but since then it has stood between zero and freezing, and several times above freezing. _ Old settlers say that the last summer was e dry summesr. _ In August we had a few rains and also in September beâ€" sides a snow storm which preceded by rain and hail lasted two days; this gave us some anxiety, as we had some oats on shock but coul1i take them in the third day after the snow seased. This snow again was good for fall ploughâ€" ing. ()wing to the many false reports which are beingrtumored broadcast over the country about this part of the Northwest via Didsbury. I desire to to give in plain English a more accurâ€" ate account of the condition of things as I have found them in the past nine months ‘On coming through Muskoka andNipp‘ssing we saw from 9 inches to 2 feet of snow covering the ground,and up as far as Port Arthur more or less snow was seen, and we were in rather low epirits as we were told that in Alâ€" berta suow was y t knee deep; however we found things quite different when we arrived, (April, 18th ) The snow was yone, farmers were done seeding in March already, and the atmosphere was delightful. _ We at once made ourâ€" selves at home, dug wells and cellars and such work that had to be doné,now and then we were interrupted by a rain‘ and in May we got a few days‘ rest on‘ account of a snow storm which gave us a coat of 4 inches. This had a very de sirable effect upon the land as it melted very rapidly and left the soil very melâ€" low., In June we had, on the average two good showers every week and also as many frosts, as they generally follow a rain ; but they did no serious injury to crops. A few potato patches were nipped hut as far as I know everybody got a fair crop. The longest we had no rain was three weeks so we had onâ€" ly onegood rain in July. DrEar Sin â€"A repoftt fs being circuâ€" lated to the effâ€"ct that the projected cheese factory in this place has fallen through. This is entirely false as the cheese maker Mr. White, is now residâ€" ing here with his family; has purchased the site and some of the material for the factory ; And will proceed with its erection early in the spring. If any farmers in this vietnity bave been deluded by the above report they may be reassured as a cheese factory here is now, practically an established thillz.

Her pupils surprised her at the close of the school term before Christmas and preâ€" sented her with an address expressive of their appreciation and accompanied it with a beautifully framed Christmas card and an elegant easy chair. Crossing over the woods and fields via & private road we soon found ourâ€" selves with Mr. George Israel the man who usually supplies the townsâ€"people with such excellent apples, but this year for the first time he is short. Thinkâ€" ing that there would be more money in pork than feeding cattle for export, he erected a large and model piggery which will hold & hundred pigs easy, a well and cistern are inside the building so when feeding he dos not need to go out for water. The prettiest lot of pigs you would wish to see were frisking about in the abundant straw in the stables, the thermometer registering zero outâ€" side yet the stable was nice and warm. We must class Mr.Israel as well as Mr. Wangeline two of our model farmers, as they never kick about hard times but if one thing don‘t pay they try ant?
