deeper impression <>n me than
anything 1 saw on the entire
trip.
From Niagara we went on to
Toronto, Canada, crossing the
Niagara river on one of the mag
mticient suspension bridges that
span the river above the falls.
We passed by the monument that
marks the grave of Maj. Isaac
Brock who was killed in the War
of 1812. Toronto is a wonderful
city of two hundred thousand
inhabitants. There are more
churches there than any city of
its size I have ever seen. The
Church of England is by far the
strongest of them all. Toronto
is noted for its institutions of
^ learning. Some thirty colleges I
J and collegiate institutes are located
there.
I had the pleasure of meeting
a number of distinguished men,
among them that I now remember
are Dr. Ilall and Chief .Jus
tice McLaren of the supreme
court. I was shown through Osgood
Hall, where the different
courts are held. They have all
the state reports in the library.
I of course looked at the S. C. reports.
There werefullv thrp? t.hmicnnrt
delegateB at the convention. It
was indeed a notable gathering
of representative men and women.
At the Metropolitan church I
eaw an organ which is played
both in front aud in the rear.
i Some of the delegates, for lack of
, * better name, called it an echo
organ. I was struck with the
clearness of the tone and the
reverberations.
From Toronto, we went by boat
down the St. Lawrence river to
Montreal. Before we got to Montreal,
we passed the great rapids
C rii t ' - -
a me ot. Lawrence (i torget the
oame.) Montreal ia a city of
about three hundred and fifty
thousand inhabitants. It is a
Catholic city largely and is noted
for the number of beautiful
cathedrals that adorn the city.
On the top of one of them they
have bronze figures of the twelve
Apostles.
We went from there to Quebec
which is quite a quaint city. The
place of most interest to us was
the "plains^ of Abraham" just
out side of the city limits, where
General Wolfe was killed and
General Montcalm was mortally
wounded. A granite monument
marks the spot where Wolfe gave
up his life in fighting the battles
of his country. The hill which
Wolfe and his men ascended in
reaching the Plains from the
river is very steep and is seventyfive
or a hundred feet high. It
/poks like it is an impossibility
* to climb it.
Returning to Quebec we went

built right along the brink of the
river. The streets of old Quebec
re very narrow and dirty. We
passed through a street leading
from the river up the hill to what
is now the principal city and
^ saw some children playing in the
narrow street?ten feet wide?
and we asked them the name of
i the stree^ They told us it was
UcallecbSous-le-Oap. As this name
suggests, Quebec is decidedly a
French city. So far as 1 know it
is the only walled city on the
^ continent. A Bronze kiblet on
the steep bank of the river marks
the sight where General Montgomery
of the United States we.?
killed in leading an attack on
the English in the War of 1812. |

Constables Back in Union.
Governor Hey ward today, alter
receiving a number of reports
from Union county, decided to
order the constables back in that
county. This action is taken be
cause ot the belief that the dispensary
law is not being enforc
ed since that county voted out
the dispensary. The policy of
Governor Ileyward was announced
several months ago in The
Record. As soon as a county
votes out the dispensary the constabularv
is withdrawn and the
county and town officials are given
an opportunity to entorce the
law. If it is found that the law
is not being enforced the constabulary
is sent back. This has
been done in several counties.?

Horse Notes.
a rule, the quick walker if
the sale horse.
Look at (lie disposition ol a
,t ..it: > *
.umiiwii as wen as ill Ills lor.11,
size, ped-gree, etc.
Load the team according to
iheir strength and use the whip as
little as possible.
Colts thai are led high and
grow fast, need more exercise than
those whose rations are limited.
The frog in a horse's foot should
touch the earlh at every step; it
is constructed tor that purpose.
Feed for strength atul muscle
rather than lat. Surplus tL'sh is
a hindrance to a horse that has to
work.
Do not expect a young horse
that is taking his first lesson in
work to do as much as a horse
well accustomed to it.
In selecting lor breeding, it is
well Jo remember that a horse
cannot transmit what ho does not
himself possess.
The market will be overstocked
with cheap horses as long as farmers
patronize stallions because
their service fee is low.
Good strong mares can raise a
good colt each year and still do
about as much farm work as geldings.
It is easy to figure that
they are more profitable.
There is a loss of available in
come in raising any kind of stock
which is devoid of good quality,
but this is especially true ol
horses.
In nearly all cases the commu
nity that raises good draft or car
riage horses will be found prosperous
and progressive.
A farm may be made much
better by farming it with teams
that are able to cultivate the crop
in the best possible manner.
The more gentle and quiet you
can keep colts from the time they
are foaled up to the time they are
old enough to work, the better
for them and for you.
Give the mares plenty of time
to eat their meals. It is poor
economy to take a horse from the
stable before he has had time to
finish his meals.
If you want horses that will be
ready sale at good prices, breed
the best of whatever strain vou
*/
fancy. There are always buyere
for good draft or carriage horses.
By breeding your grade draft
fillies to the same type of stallion
as their sire, in a short time you
will have a number of brood mares
uniform in size, contour, disposition
and color.
Both parents should be selected
so that the points of one may be
adapted to points of the other; for
although both may approach per
foction individually, the points
which characterize the one may
actually counteract tho other.
One advantacra n t lauol r?n

furm, with the tall colt, is that as
the mare need not he worked
hard during the winter she can
better suckle her colt while there
is more time for handling the colt .

To the overseers of the Public
{ ads of Lancaster County.
I atfain ask you all to warn out
our hands and work each of your
ert ions of t he public reads, as iiihov
lay8 as the law requires r until you
;et your road in good condition. I
vant to find that each section of road
n t lie county is worked good between
his and the last day of November.
Vs you all know you can't do much
food working the clay roads during
he \\ inter inotiths.
The grand jury held a meeting on
lie lir.-t Monday in September last
nid ir quested me to give notice to all
>f t lie overseers to put four days'
vork on each section of road by the
irst Monday in Oct. and for each of
on to make a report to me that day
\nd I did so. hut many of you failed
o work or to make any report. So I
iindly ask you all to read the report
if the grand jury at the last term of
lie court. You will see by that report
hat they want to have the roads
vorked better than they have ever
ieen in the past, or have the law enorced
against anv one who fails to
lischarge his duty. Let every one
lo his duty, and the law will not be
nforced against anyone, hut othervise,
they say it must he done.
i win* nonce merelore and govern
yourself accordingly.
