So you, the farmer, to make this bird produce profitably, must get these eggs out over as short a period as possible. This can be done by proper feeding and management prac­ tices. The feeding of a nutritionally balanced feed that con­ tains all of the essential elements required for high egg pro­ duction is what the bird needs. Grain alone is not enough to do this. The grain must be supplemented with a concentrate, and SHUR-GAIN Egmaker Concentrate is designed for this very purpose-—supplying everything that straight grain lacks. Whether you buy your grain or grow it yourself, it costs money. Save grain and you save money. Grain plus SHUR-GAIN Egmaker Concentrate in the correct proportions will give a balanced feed that will step up production in your flock nobalanced feed that will step up production in your flock matter how big or small. > SHUR-GAIN Means Highest Quality At Lowest Cost SHUR-GAIN Egmaker Concentrate Means Higher Egg Production At Lower Cost * , Cann's Mill Ltd. EXETER WHALEN CORNERS Durham Blasts Out 16-1 Triumph After Mohawks Take Second 3-2 Ugh! That was the universal com­ ment of the season’s largest crowd of ball fans Tuesday night after they witnessed the pounding Durham, gave the hawks. The booming bats of the tors precipitated a complete lapse of the local Mohawks, massacre began in the first in­ ning and didn't stop pntil the game was over. Durham mauled four Exeter pitchers during the rout. Per­ haps the only bright spot for the locals was the performance of midget hurler, Chuck Parsons, No. “i”, who struck out two in the ninth inning. After the game, Mohawk fans had one hope left: that Steve Mitro, who was saved from mound chores, could stop the northern­ ers up there Thursday night. Now behind two games locals must win to race. The Durham boys on the bases: put hits, eight of them doubles, nine errors and four walks and you get a fool-proof recipe for a lot of running around the square. They started to cook this un­ savory meal in the first inning. The visitors stepped up to the plate and basted two singles, a double and used two errors to bring in three runs. The rest of the game went the same way. But Durham not only shined at bat, they glittered in the field, too. Irv Garvie allowed only one hit over the route, striking out 10 along the way. Behind him, his team played classy ball and looked like they’d 16-1 Mo­ visi- col- The to one, the stay in- the had a picnic together 13 Dave’s Sideline Comments been doing ft for years.

Every mem- Even Series Legion Mohawks evened their playoff series with Durham Sat­ urday afternoon with a 3-2 tri­ umph on the opposition’s field. e Mohawks showed plenty of su­ periority over their rivals during the nine-inning affray but gave their supporters many ious moments before the out. The locals earned the They outhit Durham (11-4) they anx- final win. , and erred less (4-2) but they lacked punch in the clutches and found the pasture-diamond a little rough for serious ball. Local fans—almost 100 bussed or autoed up to the game—held their breath in the ninth inning when Durham threatened to take the game before the last out. Steve Mitro, who again pitched superb ball, had allowed only two Durham safeties when he took the mound in the last of the ninth. He struck the first man out impressively but the next two struck sharp singles to put the tying and winning runs on base. Manager Jim Fairbairn went out to consult him and, that, coupled Station's Retain Trophy Defeat Crediton 6-3 For the second year in a row, Statton’s Billiards are champions of the Rec.

Hillier, on the mound for the winners, won his own ball game and was the outstanding player of the contest, clouting a homer, which scored the only run of the game and also clipping a double, out of three trips to the plate. Stoner, for the losers, was the leading batter, with a double, getting their only extra base hit. News of Kirkton By MRS.

Rims In Fifth Mohawks went ahead in the first of the fifth. Steve clouted a long double into the tall weeds of the Durham pasture field and advanced to third on an infield out. He scored when Durham's thirdsacker (and star pitcher), Irv Gawle, threw wild to home on Lome Haugh’s ground ball. Haugh scored when Joe Mitro, who leads the locals’ hitting in this series, singled through the box. Durham got those two back in the same inning. Steve walked Garvie and the pitcher went to second on a passed ball and to third on an infield out. Mitro struck the next man out but an error brought in Garvie and Charlie Fryer, the losing pitcher, doubled to score the tying run. Failed To Touch Plate Fryer might have changed the ball game if he hadn’t missed the plate on the next play. Mitro and Jack Elson tried to pick Fry­ er off second but the ball soared out into deep centrefield and the Durham flinger came all the way home on the error. Bob Meharg noticed he failed to touch the plate, called for the ball and Fryer was thumbed out. The score continued at 2-2 un­ til the seventh when Meharg hit a high double into middlefield. He reached third on an infield out and brought the winning run in on a passed ball. The locals left 12 men on bases, compared to the opposi­ tion’s seven. Once, they stranded a runner on third with only one out and another time they failed to score after loading the bases again with only one out.

The Can­ adian Bowling Association has adopted it and recommends its use across Canada. We assume it will be adopted by the Exeter Men’s Bowling Association at Monday’s meeting. Most of you are probably fam­ iliar with the new counting sys­ tem but, for those who ar© not, here is how it differs. The old “V’’ at 1, 2-3. 4-5. The new 5, 3-3, 2-2.
