World and The Fish Trades Gazette indicate the trend on Canadian poul­ try. The Feathered World states —’ "Canada is making a strong bid for the table chicken market in this coun­ try (the British Isles) and, now that nearly all stocks in cold storage here are cleared, new consignments are ex­ pected. "Canada is 'producing a good qual­ ity bird and is paying special atten­ tion to condition and packing, two factors which the people of Holland have mastered successfully to our dis­ advantage, and which will be a strong point in -favou'r of Canadian produce in the eyes of the buyers, as against the badly marketed bulk of English, birds. • • ( | "Canadian eggs alg© may be ex- * pected in greater quantities, and a proposed increase in freight rates is to be less than was originally sug­ gested, so as not to hamper the trade. It is deaf that English producers must wake up to the fact that their market is coveted bi' others who will secure a good deal of it because there Is no effectively organized competi­ tion from home producers.” The Fish Trades Gazette, the of­ ficial organ of the wholesale poultry trade in Great Britain, states "Near­ ly all Canadian stocks of poultry have been cleared on our market ex­ cept a few cases here and there of heavy birds, and even ’ these will be cleared within the next three weeks. The most saleable size of Canadian chicken on our markets is from 3 to 4 pounds. There is of course always a demand for other weights, but the lighter weights always seem to clear out first of any shipments. I think that the Grade 1 milkfed Canadian small chickens when carefully de­ frosted, especially the white ones, are splendid birds for caterers. I can safely say this: the London hotels. and. restaurants will be using a good deal more than they did last year; this is, if the quality and standard that we expect, materialize.” ............. .........——' An Englishman and a Scotsman had been celebrating, but the barman, behind the counter had declined the last order. The Englishman picked up the half-dollar that had lain on the counter while the argument was in progress, and was about to pocket it when the Scot said, “ ’Scuse me, that’s my half-dollar.” "Oh, no, old boy, it’s my half-dol­ lar, I assure you.” "But it’s mine. It’s got my name on it. Look and you’ll see ’George’?* The other inspected the coin care­ fully, and handed it over, saying, "Beg your pardon, old boy, you’re quite ri*?’ PICOBAC PIPE TOBACCO FOR A MILD. Cool smoke !F
