Poultry  Fencing  that  is 

Stronger  than  Seems  Necessary 

We  make  our  poultry  fencing  dose  enough  to  turn  small  fowl — 
then  we  make  it  extra  strong,  so  it  will  last  for  years  and  keep 
the  cattle  out.       The  hea\y,  hard  steel  top  and  bottom  wires 
hold  it  taut  and  prevent  it  from  sagging. 

POULTRY  FENCE 
SAVES  EXPENSE 


It  is  well  galvanized  so  as  to  protect  it  from  rust.     It  makes 
such  a  firm,  upstanding  fence  that  it  requ'res  less    than 
half  the  posts  needed  for  the  ordinary  poultry  fence,  and 
that  means  a  big  saving  to  you.     Write  for  particulars 
We  make  farm  and  ornamental  fences  and  gates  of 

exceptional   quality.    Agents  wanted  where  not  now  represented.

these  no-name,  no  reputation  substitutes  may  be  dangerous  to  your  health. 
Always  keep  it  in  the  house.

Mr.  John  R.  Childerhouse,  Orillia,  Ont.  writes  :  —  "When  in  Fort 
William,  last  summer,  I  was  taken  sick  with  diarrhoea,  and  became  so 
weak  and  suffered  such  great  pain,  I  had  to  quit  work.  Our  Manager 
advised  me  to  try  Dr.  Fowler's  Extract  of  Wild  Strawberry,  so  on  my 
way  home  I  bought  a  bottle,  and  after  taktng  four  doses  I  was  cured. 
We  always  keep  a  bottle  in  the  house.  We  have  also  used  it  for  our 
children,  and  find  it  an  excellent  remedy  for  summer  complaint."

THREE    GREAT 

MEDICINES 

Which  we  are  Authorized  Agents  for 
T.  T.  T.  T,,  FOUR  Ts. 

This  man  ellous  medicine  is  the  best,  quickest  and  safest  preparation 
ever  compounded  for  the  cure  of  coughs  and  colds.  During  the  last  five 
years  more  than  half  a  million  bottles  have  been  sold  in  Ontario,  and  have 
clearly  proven  that  Four  Ts  cure  a  cough  in  24  hours,  and  breaks  up  a 
bad  cold  in  two  days  If  you  have  a  chronic  hacking  cough  try  the  Four 
T's.  Cures  coughs,  colds,  bronchitis,  asthma,  and  all  throat  and  lung 
affections.     Price  25c.  per  bottle 

Merrill's  Wizard  Lightning 

So  named  because  it  cures  pain  inside  or  out  of  man  or  beast  in  five 
minutes.  Composed  of  gums  and  oils  of  remarkable  power.  No  need  to 
use  mustard  or  belladonna  plasters,  as  Merrill's  Wizard  Lightning  produces 
the  effect  of  either  in  a  few  minutes  Try  it  for  neuralgia,  toothache, 
colic  or  cramps,  female  padns,  lumbago,  chilblains,  gas  on  the  stomach,  or 
indigestion.  Many  a  person  has  saved  a  veterinary  bill  by  giving  sick  horses 
or  cattle  half  a  bottle  of  Wizard  Lightning,  followed  by  a  pint  of  raw  oil. 
Price  25  c.  per  bottle 

Merrill's  System  Tonic 

This  great  medical  triumph  hcis  been  used  by  a  great  many  people  in 
and  about  here,  who  all  praise  it  in  the  highest  terms.  System  Tonic 
purifies  the  blood,  builds  up  the  system,  strengthens  the  nerves  and  cures 
constipation.  It  cures  a  vast  range  of  diseases,  for  90  per  cent,  of  ordinary 
diseases  hinge  on  one  of  four  great  causes  mentioned  above  as  being  cured 
by  System  Tonic.  Try  it  as  a  permanent  cure  for  dyspepsia,  rheumatism, 
skin  diseases,  liver  trouble,  etc.  Take  it  when  you  are  weak,  pale  and 
nervous.  It  will  surely  cure  you  Each  fifty-cent  bottle  contains  fifty 
pleasant-to-take  doses.  Also  in  tablet  form.  Price,  50  cents  per  box  of 
50  tablets. 

We  recommend  these  preparations  to  our  customers,  as  we  know  the 
manufacture  to  be  one  of  the  most  successful  druggists  in  Toronto.  Sold  at 
all  drug  and  general  stores.

What's  in  a  Name? 


There  is  an  endosement  in  every  name  that  was  ever 
inscribed  on  our  rolls — an  endorsemant  of  this  school, 
its  character,  its  principles,  its  performance.  They  are 
names  of  men  at  the  head  of  our  bigges.  financial 
institutions ;  names  of  men  whom  you  know,  or  know 
of.  by  reputation.  True  we  did  not  make  these  men 
what  they  are  to-day.  But  we  are  proud  to  say  that  we 
helped  to  lay  the  foundation  for  their  making,  and  we 
are  prouder  of  their  loyal  allegiance  to  their  old  school, 
to  which  they  turn  in  confidence  for  all  office  help 
which  they  may  require.  Can  you  afford  to  ignore  the 
weight  and  cumulative  strength  of  endorsement  in 
these  names  ?  You  will  find  them  in  our  handsomely 
illustrated  prospectus.     Write  for  it  to-day.

JUST  ONCE! 

If  you  have  any 
sore  place — ulcer, 
eczema,  burn,  cut 
or  cold  sore,  be 
well  advised!  Try 
Zam-Buk. 

Druggists  sell  more  Zam-Buk  than  any 
other  salve. 

Their  profit  on  it  is  no  greater  than  on 
others— is  less  than  on  many.  Do  you  think 
Zam-Buk  would  be  so  much  more  widely 
used  than  any  other  salve  if  it  were  not  so 
much  better? 

Sentiment  and  advertising  might  make 
first  sales,  but  only  QUALITY  can  pro- 
duce repeat  orders. 

More  and  more  Zam-Buk  is  being  sold 
every  month,  because  the  quality  is  there. 

How  about  the  children's  sores  and  skin 
troubles?  Don't  you  think  they  deserve 
the  best  remedy^  you  can  get? 

That's  Zam-Buk.

ANDREW  KERNIGHAN 

(Khan's  Father)       Aged  90  years 

The  bearer  of  this  well-knov.'n  name  is  one  of  thetown- 
ship  oldest  pioneers.  He  has  passed  his  nineteeth  mile 
stone  sound  and  hearty,  and  there  is  nothing  to  prevent 
him  hvidg  to  enter  the  centenarian  class 

H?  has  lived  a  quiet  and  uneventful  life  on  the  farm 
where  he  has  resided  continuously  for  seventy-six  years. 
He  is  a  link  bmding  the  far  past  and  the  frequant 
presen'. 

Mr.  Kernighan  distinctly  remembers  the  meeting 
called  to  organize  an  Agricultural  Society  in  Beverly  and 
has  seen  the  annual  event  increase  in  importance  every 
year.  The  old  pioneers  grow  fewer  every  year  and  the 
subject  of  this  sketch  finds  himself  much  alone. 

His  old  neighbours  and  comrades  crossed  the  dark 
valley  long  ago  and  one  does  not  make  many  new 
acquaiatences  when  one  is  past  ninety. 

He  is  spending  his  last  years  serei.ely  proud  of  the 
country  that  he  helped  to  build  and  assured  that  it  is  one 
.of   he  finest  lands  in  all  the  earth.

JOHN  CO>X^  IE  one  of  tSe  first  cirectors  of  tSe  Fair. 

^/k.  John  Cowie  wes  a  native  of  Haddingtdh,  Scotland.  When  quite  a  young  man, 
he  like  many  of  our  fore  fathers,  became  ambitious  to  make  a  home  in  distant  America 
and  sailed  with  his  partner  in  life  across  the  Atlantic,  settling  near  Hamilton  in  what  is 
now  know  &s  Taplejrtown.  After  a  few  years  he  took  possession  of  the  two  hundred 
acres  now  known  as  "Mellow  Lees  Farm,"  and  occupied  by  his  son  William,  on  the 
Ninth  Concession  of  Beverly. 

Like  the  early  pioneers  he  shared  the  hardships  and  privations  of  early  settlers,  yet 
they  had  their  joys  as  well  as  sorrows.  A  family  of  four  daughters  and  one  son  blessed 
their'home,  and  years  of  prosperity  came  to  reward  hira  for  his  perseverance. 

He  took  an  acrive  part  in  local  affairs  and  during  his  active  years  was  never  absent 
^from  the  Annual  World's  Fair. 

In  religion  he  was  a  staunch  Presbyterian  and  in   1 890  died  at  a  ripe  old  age. 

Sailed  for  this  country  in   1834;  died  in   1890.

JOHN  IRA  FLATT,  Ex-M.L.A. 


The  name  of  John  Ira  Flatt  is  one  of  the  best  known  in  Western 
Canada  in  connection  with  the  limber  trade.  He  was  born  in  the  town- 
ship of  Bast  Flamboro,  and  up  to  the  age  of  sixteen  he  attended  the 
common  school  at  Waterdown,  and  then  for  four  years  ,  ore  he  worked 
steadily  on  his  father's  farm.  The  succeeding  ten  years  he  worked  for 
himself  on  a  rented  farm  and  to  t  is  he  added  the  lumber  business  in 
1865.  Six  years  later  he  formed  a  partnership  with  the  late  Robert 
Thompson  of  Lynden,  with  whom  he  operated  for  five  years,  and  then 
a  dissolution  takinp  place,  the  firm  of  Flatt  &  Bradley,  one  of  the 
most  noted  in  the  at  mis  ot  the  lumber  trade,  was  formed.  For  sixteen 
years  they  carried  on  ihe  tms'ness  with  great  success,  enlarging  the  original 
field  of  every  towtish  p  hioui;d  Hamilton  until  to-day  Mr.  Flatt.  at  the 
head  of  the  firm  of  J  &  W.  Flati  in  which  his  sons  Jacob,  William  and

'  always  commanding  the  highest 
prices  in  Quebec,  Liverpool,  Lon- 
don, Gl;  a^ow  and  all  the  great

brief,  if  may  be  said  that,  west 
of  Toronto,  no  house  in  Canada 
carries  on  lumbering  operations 
so  extensively,  or  enjoys  a  better 
reputation  than  the  firm  of  J.  & 
W.  Flatt.  In  public  affairs  Mr, 
Flatt  has  always  borne  his  part 
worthily  and  well.  In  i860  he 
was  elected  a  member  of  the 
West  Flamboro  Council  in  which 
he  served  for  seven  years  con-

THOMAS  McQueen,   19th  President  World's  Fair.  Rockton 

Thomas  McQueen,  son  of  the  late  James  McQueen,  was  bom  near  Kirk- 
wall, on  lot  19.  con.  7,  township  of  Beverly,  in  the  year  1838.  When  he 
had  reached  the  age  of  2 1  he  set  out  for  the  gold  diggings  in  California,  and 
his  indomnitable  perseverance  and  pluck  gained  for  him  the  great  object  for 
which  he  set  out,  and  it'is  said  he  came  back  laden  with  gold'nuggets.  The  tales 
of  the  wild  west  told  in  his  inimitable  style  have  caused  roars  of  laughter  or 
struck  the  listeners  dumb  with  horror  and  dismay.  In  1867  he  bought  the 
farm  known  as  the  John  Mulholland  farm,  on  which  he  has  lived  ever  since- 
He  wields  great  influence  in  the  tovraship,  being  very  ix>pular  with  all 
parties.  He  was  elected  councillor  in  1870,  served  for  the  next  seven 
years  deputy  reeve  and  then  was  placed  in  the  highest  seat  in  municipail 
affairs  in  1  8  78.  In  1 880  he  was  elected  a  director  of  the  Beverly  Agricultural 
Society,  and  was  re-elected  each  year  up  to  1886,  when  he  was  elected 
vice-president,  and  in  1887  became  president  and  has  every  year  since  been 
an  active  director.  After  leaving  Sheffield  in  1 896  he  went  to  Hamilton  and 
*ook  charge  of  the  Asylum  farm  there  for  about  thirteen  years  ahd  then  took 
a  trip  to  the  Pacific  Coast  and  saw  the  wonderful  changes  that  had  taken 
place  since  1 86 1  when  he  was  there  and  came  home  dowTi  through  the  great 
west,  and  is  now  living  in  the  historic  town  of  Dundas  trying  to  spend  the 
baJance  cf  his  time.

.  Mr.  W.  O.  Sealey,  Ex-MP.  for  Wentworth, 
was  born  in  the  township  of  East  Flamboro,  on 
the  26th  of  January,  1 859.  He  attended  the 
Waterdown  public  and  high  schools  until  he 
was  -twelve  years  of  age.  He  then  worked  on 
the  farm  for  four  years,  and  at  the  age  of  sixteen 
he  bought  out  a  general  store  business  in  Water- 
down.  This  he  conducted  successfully  for  four 
years,  and  then,  selling  out,  began  farming  again. 
His  early  experience  in  agricultural  p)ersuits  gave 
him  a  knowledge  and  interest  which  have  been 
very  profitable.  Som.e  years  ago  he  became 
interested  in  the  lumber  business  and  in  this  he 
has  also  been  most  successful  as  have  been  all 
his  business  interests. 

He  early  took  an  active  interest  in  elections, 
both  municipal  and  political.  He  was  elected 
reeve  of  East  Flamboro  and  was  a  member  of 
the  county  council  of  Wentworth.  He  was  a 
strong  advocate  of  "goods  roads,"  "free  roads," 
"  free  markets,"  "  economical  management  of 
public  affairs  "  and  "  reduction  of  taxes."  He 
had  a  great  deal  to  do  vvith  abolishing  tolls  from 
four  of  the  leading  roads  of  the  country.  He 
was  instrumental  in  getting  the  county  council  to 
unite  with  other  county  councils- in  having  a 
petition  presented  to  the  Legislature  to  have 
market  fees  reduced,  which  jsetitions  were 
successfully .  He  also  took  an  active  pjurt 
against  the  unsatisfactory  ure  of  the  grain  tester 
and  against  the  unfair  practice  of  deducting  two 
W.   O.    SEALHY,    Ex-M  P.  pounds    of    the    weight     of    hogs    when   'the 

producer  w»s  selling.     He  has  always  taken  a  great  and  intelligent  interest  in  the  farmers,    fruit 

and  vegetables  growers,  and  this  pKjlicy  he  will  continue  to  develop. 

Mr.  Sealey  wais  first  chosen  as  candidate  for  the  House  of  Commons  in  June,  1900,  by 
the  Liderals  of  South  Wentworth  on  the  retirement  of  the  Hon.  Thomeis  Bain.  He,  however, 
was  defeated  by  Mr.  E.  D.  Smith,  as  owing  to  the  gerrymandar.  South  Wentworth  wis 
largely  Conservative.  On  the  readjustment  of  the  Wentworths  to  their  former  boundaries,  Mr. 
Sealey  received  the  nomination  to  contest  Wentworth  at  the  approaching  dominion  elections 
and  was  declared  elected  by  a  small  majority,  but  on  a  recount  an  inegularity  was  discoTered  on 
the  part  of  a  deputy  relurning  officer  by  mistake,  and  he  lost  the  election.  At  the  by-dection 
Tieldin  1905  he  suffered  defeat  by  a  small  majority,  Mr.  E.  D.  Smith  again  being  successful. 
At  the  Reform  Corivention  of  November,  1907,  Mr.  Sealey  received  an  enthusiastic  nominatioii 
and  on  the  26th  of  October,  1908,  he  was  elected  by  a  majority  of  346  over  Lieut-Col.  W.  H. 
Ptolemy,  the  Conservative  candidate. 

His  active  career  in  the  House  of  Commons  during  his  parliamentary  term  is  well-known  to 
most  people  in  Canada  and  his  efforts  along  aigricultural  lines,  as  well  as  matters  of  Trade  and 
'Commerce,  have  brought  excep>tionally  good  and  lasting  results. 

He  was  defeated  with  the  Government  on  September  21st,  191 1.

D.  DWYER 

One_orthe  best  known  men  in  the  County  of  Wentworth  is  D.  Dwyer, 
"^nose  genial  good  nature  has  won  for  him  hosts  of  friends.     For  fifty  years 
^le  has  lived  on  the  same  farm      Mr.  Dwyer  had  the  hardships  of  the  early 
pioneer  but  being  strong  in  body  and  determined  in  mHid,  he  saw  the  great 
•  change  from'the  log  cabin  to  the  beautiful  home  he  now  occupies.    He  has 
always  taken  a  keen  interest  in  the  public  affairs  of  the  community  in  which 
-ne_ lived.     He  became  a  director  of  the  World's  Fair  in  and  its  presi- 
dent in  1898.     He  has  been  a  Director  of  the  Beverly  Plowing  Match

along  with  R.   L.  Biggs,  Thos.  McQyeen,  the  late  Jas.  McCormack  and 
the  late  Wm.  Menzies  formed  a  committee  who  strove  to  interest  the"differ-

Toronto,  and  finally  succeeded  in  purchasing  the  Dundas  and  Waterloo

and  by  his  perseverance  aud  stick-to-it-ivBes3,  he  succeeded  in  getting 
his  goeds  oa  to  the  market,  and  by  putting  in  more  expensive  and  up 
to  date  machinery,  and  turning  out  a  first  class  product,  he  has  paihed 
his  goods  ahead  until  to-day  he  cannot  begin  to  fill  his  orders,  and 
his  special  lines  known  as  the  St.  George  Evaporated  Cream,  and 
The  Banner,  and  Princess  Milk,  are  known  in  every  town  and  city
