The first three years he purchased grain for Mr. Denne of Newmmket, latterly for Mr. McBride, King, Station.

Farmers have found out that they can dispose nf their grain at. King Station to better advantage than teaming it to Toronto- All of his trans- actions have been businesslike, honest and fair No doubt the market at King Station has lost a. good buyer.‘ Financially Mr. Brackin’s business has been a. success. He has purchased three hundred and twenty acres of valuable land west of Brandun and ha a comfor- table house erected, also 2i. large number of acres under cultivaiiun, ready for Spring crop.
