Get Them Cackling
Early This Fall
The Cackle of pullets is music to the poultryman’s ears be
cause Oxide they start to cackle they start to pay their way.
By the time -a pullet is ready to lay, she represents a con
siderable investment in cash and in work. She will pay off
that investment with interest quickly if slje is brought into
production of larger eggs early when the egg market is strong.
SHUR-GAIN Growing Mash will help do that job—full feed
ing with SHUR-GAIN Growing Mash and scratch grain (50-
50) will bring your pullets into production earlier.

feed, and goodness knows we
have lots of it in South Huron
this year.
Professor Campbell felt that
the price of pork was also being
controlled by a supply and de
mand market. While in certain,
circles, some men are taking
much credit for the present day
price, they really had little bear
ing on it. Ontario’s hog price, as
well as all Canada, is controlled
by Western hogs. For the past
12 months hog numbers have
been on the decrease in Western
Canada. But during the past six
months more sows and gilts
been bred than the market
rants. Western Canada will
many of their hogs on
Prairies where there is an
abundance of feed grains still on
the farms from the 1952 crop.
The western farmer can’t get
boxcar space to ship this grain so
it is common sense that says
they will begin to feed it to the
large number of hogs being far
rowed this summer in higher
numbers than has been known
for years.
In the dairy industry he fore
saw a fairly steady market, due
to consumption being on the in
crease; but he warned, that sub
stitutes are still a large threat
to this industry. Here again he
stressed the cost of production
«to show a larger margin of pro
fit.
Poultry still looked a good bet
to Mr. Campbell, due to the de
crease in numbers. Here he said
there is no substitute to worry
about. Dressed poultry and eggs
are Sway out in front for price
this year, more so at the pre
sent time. Turkey is scarce this
year due to a large decrease in
numbers. In fact we have heard

Sheep numbers are increasing
but we still have to import lamb
and mutton to meet the demand
and he foresaw no reason why
sheep prices should experience
any sharp declines. In fact,
breeding stock will show strong
demand.
While Professor Campbell does
not hold himself as an expert in
market forecasting, he is in a
position, with figures at his
fingertips, to prove his state
ments. He says economists have

'Last Supper'
Bend Exhibit
Under the auspices of the local
Lions Club, H. B. Maxey’s exact
reproduction of the Lord’s Last
Supper in wax works was on ex
hibit at the beach over the week
end and holiday.
This reproduction took eleven
years in building and cost over
fifty thousand dollars. It was
two years in the Toronto Exhibi
tion. It is contained in a 33-foot
refrigerator trailer, and each one
was welcome to go through the
trailer and view this wonderful
work of art. No charge was made
but a silver collection was taken
to defray expenses and to aid in
the Work of the Lions Club.
Anyone who missed this dis
play certainly missed something
most inspiring and wonderful.
The life-size figures of each dis
ciple was so characterized and
real that anyone who knew the
Gospel story oould readily depict
them without glancing at the
names above each figure. Even
the hands and fingernails were
so lifelike and the faces so hu
man in appearance that one
could almost feel the disciples
were right in our midst and one
could speak with them as they
passed through. ,
But the figure of the Christ,
was more wonderful still to be
hold. The eyes were so searching
and wistful, and anyone who had
a spark of grace in their heart
could not but see the pleading in
those eyes as he seemed to say
"Come unto Me all ye who are
weary of heart’’. The hair oh the
head of this figure was natural
human hair and each hair was
put in separately and it well
spoke the part of such care and
patience.
Quiet sacred music could be
heard as one passed through and
prayer was requested on entering
and leaving for the boys over
seas, and silence was requested
while passing the figure of Our
Lord for due reverence.
Hundreds passed through the
trailer during the three days frnd
many were the comments which
bespoke the feelings of the peo
ple who witnessed the wonderful
display,
Mr, and Mrs, Ronald Gunning
visited Mr. and Mrs. Gordon
Smith over the holiday weekend,
