Available labour and local de~ mand for domestic apples probably prompts this interest. Early Cobblers will have a greater acreage in that county this year, while all blood-tested flocks have contracted for all the hatching eggs they can produce. Grey County has observed with gratification a substantial increase in hog prices. A steadily increasing inquiry for good seed grain from farmers is noted in Grey and Halton. Egg prices have More Economical Production Essential to Dairy BusineSS| “Dairy revenue has declined stead-I fly for the past few years and in my 0Pinion, more economical production of milk is the only solution to our present situation in the dairy bus- iness." said George H. Barr, director, Dairy Branch of the Department. “Several factors will serve towards lowering production costs,” he con- tinued, “but perhaps the most im- portant of these is improved breed- ing. Much can be accomplished in increasing production of milk per cow, through using only pure bred sires, with known milk production in their ancestry. A second important step towards more efficient production is that of cow testing, with a view of eliminating the poor cows, or ‘board- ersL’ A third essential is that of scientific feeding. A highâ€"producing herd must be fed balanced rations.” THURSDAY.

An upâ€"to-date power seed-cleaning plant is being installed in Alliston and will be in operation shortly. Lincoln is another county where cold, windy Weather has had a det- rimental effect on clover and wheat which have been exposed to the weather by heaving and thawing. In Middlesex less than the usual amount of concentrates have been bought for dairy cattle, with the result that milk production has not been quite up to standard, and some herds are not in as good condition as usual. This county has had an unusually large number of applications for T. B. testing with a view to having herds accredited. Good farm work horses are selling at excellent prices in Wentworth and many farmers there are still in need of extra horse power.

Throughout the reports from var- ious countries of recent date is opti- mism at the upward swing of hog prices and the feeling is expressed that the prices of all 'kinds of farm commodities will now follow suit. A grade Leicester ewe owned by John S. McGuire, Crookston, aged ten years, has given bh'th to and raised twenty-seven lambs. The small flock of six ewes of Mr. McGuire’s gave birth to fifteen lambs this spring but unfortu'rratelyrtwo were dead at birth. We believe this to be a record. A milk delivering company in Bosâ€" torr has bought 300 horses, to reduce delivery costs. A horse will start and stop at the driver’s command, and follow 'him from house to ’house, something an auto truck could not be taught to do. Horses are said to be coming back in all the larger cities. One big oil company in New York has issued an order to all its stations to install drinking fountains for horsâ€" es.

On Monday evening last about thirty members of Court Richmond, on invitation, paid a visit to Court Union, Thornhill. After the court‘ had been closed, the brethren repaired to the Queen’s Hotel where a sumpâ€"i tuous oyster supper awaited them. After doing justice to the bivalves a program of speeches and songs was carried out, and the brethren sep- arated all feeling that they had spent a very' pleasant evening. The soft weather of Saturday and Sunday caused a great deal of snow to disappear. Consequsetly ithe streams and ditches were full of water. The pond, known as Wilson’s, became so full that fears were en- tertained for the safety of the dam. A large number of our citizens did work of necessity on Sunday morning and afternoon in trying to prevent a washout there. The waters at one time did make a hole under the dam, but by the aid of peastraw and mud the structure was saved. Had the dam broken the foundation of Messrs. Innes’ Mill would have been in danger. We observe bv the Orillia Packet From Our Issue of March 17th, 1898 Mr. R. W. Glass has been ap- pointed leader of the band. We con- gratulate Reub. on his recent ap- pointment as to be leader of a band We observe by the Orillia Packet that Mr. C. H. Byam, who has been transferred as station agent on the Northern Railway from Atherley to Richmond Hill station, was before his departure presented with an easy chair by the Royal Templars of the latter place. Mrs. Byam was at the same time presented with an easel, and the gifts were accompanied with a lengthy and touching address. Mr. Byam replied on behalf of himself and his wife thanking the friends for their tokens of appreciation, and re- ferred to the kindness they had re- ceived during the past six years. Mr. and Mrs. Byam have been at Atherley for the past six years, and evidently are leaving behind them hosts lOf friends. Owing to continued ill-health, Mr. W. E. Brown of the High School staff has handed to the Board his resigâ€" nation. Mr. Brown has filled the position of assistant teacher with great ability for nearly three years. His departure will be felt in many ways and he will go attended by the Sincere‘g‘ood Wishes of all who know 'him.

WAY BACK IN THE LIBERAL FILES THIRTY’FIVE YEARS AGO THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO “We don’t knowâ€"that’s why we call it Joe." “I see, sir,” said the house agent, wi‘h an understanding smiIe. “You want to practice the simple life, I take it?” “So you call your canary Joe. Does that stand for Joseph or Josephine?” “Not at all,” said the other grimly. “I want to practice the sax.” “I want,” said the house hunter, “a small place in an isolated position. Somewhere at least five miles from any other house.” We are sorry to report that Mr. Clark Prentice is at present in the Western Hospital, Toronto. The funeral took place on Monday afternoon to Ebenezer cemetery, after interment, service was held in the church, conducted by Rev. D. A. Mac- Keracher. taking his text from Pro- verbs “The memory of the iust is blessed.” The funeral was largely attended and the floral tributes were n'nany. The hall bearers were relaâ€" tives and neighbors. Mrs. Susan Gibson and Miss Marâ€" garet Gibson visited the formers niece Mrs. Margaret Scott, Kingston Rd. Scarboro, on Saturday. Mrs. Scott is suffering from a severely sprained ankle. The community was shocked to hear of the sudden passing of Marietta Wood, beloved wife of Chris Lamor- eaux, at her home here Friday after- noon. She was the daughter of the late Mr.” and Mrs. Wm] Wood, and is survived by her husband, one son Ross, three sisters Mrs. Henry Mason, Agincourt. Mrs. L. Reesor, Scarboro Junction. Mrs. Baird.

The deal for Mr. Joseph Bales 200 acre farm at Lansing was completed on Tuesday. The price is $250,000. The place will be put on the market and sold in city lots. Arrangements have been made for installing a Ten Horse Power electric motor at the Trench Carriage Works. A deputation from Richmond Hill of six or seven-gentlemen headed by Mr. Wm. Pratt, visited a couple of churches in Newmarket on Wednes- d'ay evening to get some pointers on electric lighting. TWENTY YEARS AGO From Our Issue of March 20th, 1913 Good Friday, March let, 1913 Ten more lots have been sold in Roseview Gardens, on the Lawrence farm, within the last few days.

The Board adjourned. ‘ Mr. G. A. Clark of Newmarket, as- sistant District Representative, On- tario Department of Agriculture, was in this section on Wednesday relative to arrangements for Vaughan Town- ship Rural School Fair, 1913. His Honor Judge Morgan’s final decision is that the recent local option By-law in Aurora be quashed. The temperance party are not satisfied with the decision, and are appealing to a higher court. Instructions have been given to Mr. H. E. Irwin, K.C., who is acting for the temperance party to- immediately appeal. The appeal will be based upon the alle- gation that the judge exceeded his jurisdiction in declaring the by-law defeated, the temperance people claiming that his Honor could not tell how the votes were cast, but merely report that so many votes were cast improperly. MILLIKEN “Various methods of solving the problem are being followed, but~prob- ably effective pasteurization of the milk is the best protection for the consumer, and milk so treated ap- pears to retain its valuable food pro- perties practically unimpaired.” This quotation is from a recent publication of Sir George Newman, Chief Medical Officer of the Ministry of Health for England and Wales. Considering the source, we do not know of any endorsation of pasteur- ization which should mean more to each one of us, interested as we are in the protection of children and adults from the dangers of contamâ€" inated milk. It is unfortunate that milk, which is such a valuable food, may, if it becomes contaminated, be responsible for the spread of disease. It is more than fortunate that there is available a simple, practical means whereby this danger may be overcome and milk made safe. Pasteurization means the heating' of milk to a temperature which deâ€" stroys all disease germs that may have gained entrance to the milk. It is not a hit-or-miss process. The temperature and the length of time required are wellâ€"known and are set down in the milk laws defining pasâ€" teurization. It is also required by law that, after pasteurization, the milk be cooled and kept cool until delivered, after which it is the re- sponsibility of the householder to keep the milk cold until it is used. The purpose of pasteurization is to make milk safe. Together with pasteurization must go inspection. It is not to be thought that pasteur- ization is used to overcome uncleanâ€" liness in milking or in the handling STOVES and ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT H. P.

After all this his been done, the clean milk is then pasteurized to ensure its safety. There is no objection to heating foods. All of the animal foods and many others are subjected to heat be- fore being eaten. The cooking of foods is one of the most important safeguards which we possess against disease. There is, therefore, no in- heren’c reason why milk should not be heated before being used. The advantages of pasteurization are not based solely on theory. Prac- tically, these communities which have a pasteurized milk supply have ex- perienced a tremendous reduction in the number of cases of sickness and of deaths from those diseases which are commonly spread by contaminated milk. Pasteurized milk is safe. Are you using a safe milk?
