There’s a reason. The keeping qualitjr of the egg is greatly improved by rapid cooling. In a test it was found that egsg gathered in wooden bas­ kets had a tempature in five hours of 82 dergees and in ten hours of 65 degrees. Eggs gathered at the same time in wire baskets had a five-ihour temperature of 67£ degrees and a 10-hour tempature of 56 and a half degrees. Wire baskets for egg collection are now in almost universal use on commercial egg plants in the New York and Boston areas. Wire bas­ kets are now manufactured and sold by poultry supply firms. A very sat­ isfactory basket can be made with sides of light lumber and a bottom of wire- netting with half-inch mesh. Screw a spool under the bottom cor­ ners so that the air can always culate up through the eggs. the requirements for in the newly organized International Exposition Canadian farmers from several provinces of the Dominion have many entries in the 38th Interna­ tional Live Stock Exposition and the 19th International Grain and Hay Show which will be held at Chicago from November 27 to December 4th, 1937, inclusive.

In 1936 exhibitors from the Dominion won 16 grand cham­ pionships, 10 reserve grand 'cham­ pionships, 76 first prizes and 277 other rewards. Since the Internation­ al Grand and Hay Show has been held at Chicago, Canadians have won the championship prize for wheat no less than 14 times and’ 22 times since the International competition was introduced in 1.911 at the New York Land Show. The 193 6 winter was Herman T’relle, of Wembley, Peace River, Alberta, who also won the championship in 193'0, 1931, and 1932. Every winner from Can­ ada of this coveted award has scored with a variety of wheat developed by the Cereal Division, Experimental Farms Branch, Dominion Depart­ ment of Agricultural. The joint international shows held annually at Chicago are among the leaders in agricultural shows. This year it is expected that live stoick entries will total about 15,000 and the grain and hay entries will be be­ tween 5,000i and 6,0-00, principally from the United States and Canada, though there will be some 13 ether countries. tario Department of Agriculture will provide two resident instructors in agriculture.

He is Rex Battle, leader of the Royal York Hotel concert orchestra, which plays daily at the hotel and is heard oh regular coast-to- coast radio broadcasts. The pic­ ture of Mr. Battle is from a, por­ trait recently dwie by Allan Barr, and^hows the maestro concen­ trating on a* difficult piano pas­ sage. At the Royal York Hotel, which is the largest hostelry in the British Empire, Rex Battle’s orchestra is a favorite among the guests, who gather in large num­ bers at his concerts or tune him in on the individual radios in bedrooms throughout the hotel. The orchestra has spread its fame by playing for conventions that gather at the hotel from all over the continent. Tho Royal York’s fine facilities for this type of hotel trade attracted 7’5 con­ ventions, totalling 0,000 dele* gates, up to the middle of March, while 45 others are scheduled to bring 11,000 delegates to the hotel from all over the country later in the year.

The steer market class is always a feature at Guelph.
