The bridge which: will not be started until midsummer and will take two or more years to build, will span not only the river, but the entire gully, and eliminate two steep hills and curves on either side of the present narrow structure. “You can say definitely that the business section of Bayfield will not be sidetracked by a re-routing of the Bluewater Highway at that point,” Mr. Ballantyne made plain. Recently a deputation from the village visited the Parliament Buildings at Toronto to- protest against any alternative survey which skirted the village.

The mild weather of the .past winter is responsible for the abnormally high egg production that has held prices down to low levels. But that same mild weather is responsible for unusually high hatchability—which means lower hatching costs. As a result, we can now offer you chicks of our "Xtra-Profit1’ grade, for immediate delivery, at prices no- higher- than you would expect to pay for ordinary chicks. There-’s an oppor­ tunity here that we may not be able to Offer you again in the next 10 years. Unless I am mistaken, there never was a more promising time to get into high-quality poultry. I think we’re going to see eggs ihigh and feed much lower by early Fall. I can’t remember when we have had two years of general feed shortage in succession, and I don’t think there are going to be nearly as many hens or pullets as usual in the country next Fall. Many yearling lhens have been sold off already, and a lot >of in-and-outers are staying OUT of chickens this season. So get a flock of these vigorous, rapid-developing mon­ ey-makers, and be ready to' cash in.
