Believe me, it beats any laxative, as it keeps me in shape every day,”—Wm, C. Billings (ad­ dress on request). Why put up with half-sick days, when a delicious cereal will make you feel so-good? Because All- Bran has “budk” which absorbs moisture within the body. Then gently sponges out your system, wipes away the listlessness, the “blues,” the headaches. Scientific tests prove this nat­ ural food is both safe and effec­ tive— worlds better’ than taking patent medicines. All-Bran is guaranteed. Take it a week. If not satisfactory, your money will be refunded by the Kellogg Company, Serve as a cereal oi' use in cook­ ing. All-Bran also supplies vita­ min B and iron. At all grocers.

BIRTISH DEMAND FOR CANADIAN CHICKENS Ten thousand boxes of dressed poultry (about 500,000 pounds or 20 cars) were shipped, from Canada to the British market during the week ended March 13th. This is the larg­ est shipment of poultry that has ev­ er been made in one week. From Jan. 1 to March 12, 1937, Canadian export poultry shipments to Britain totalled 37,750 boxes, or about 1,777,500 lbs., compared with 16,463 boxes, or ap­ proximately 823,400 lbs, in the cor­ responding period of 1936. Officials of the Poultry Services, Dominion Department of Agriculture, are pleased, with the increased poultry shipments to the British market. They are, however, more encouraged by the marked improvement in the quality of this year's shipments. More of the Canadian chickens exported in 1937 are of the milkfed quality than for­ merly. According to information received by the Dominion Department of Ag­ riculture from W. A.' Wilson, Can­ adian Animal Products Trade Com­ missioner in London, England, there is active inquiry for Canadian chick­ ens on the British market and a bet­ ter feeling developing for them, The market is firmer and higher prices are being paid for the best grades. This, it nis stated, is due to the im­ proved economic conditions in Bri­ tain and the preparations for the Cor­ onation festivities, which will extend over several weeks. The British mar­ ket gives promise of providing a rea­ sonably profitable outlet for consdi- erable supplies of Canadian poultry, provided the requirements in respect to price, quality and uniformity in packing are strictly observed.
