Albert ..........1 Wingham .........3 Port Albert .....0 Fred W. Bray, Limited, Hamilton, Ont, Dear Mr, Bray: Qn March 13th I received my eighth shipment of Bray Chick? which consisted of 255 sexed White Leghorn 90% pullets. . ' They turned out to be’almost 100% pullets as I had only 3 cock­ erels in the flock. As usjual I found the chicks very hardy and I was successful in raising 252 of them, I have been raising chicks for 9 years and only once bought from another hatchery and agree with the old saying, “You have to taste the bitter to appreciate the sweet.” I was getting some eggs from these pullets when they were 4 months old and when they were 6 months they were laying, 60%,, of which 50% were grading “A Large” with very few eggs weighing under 22 ounces to the dozen. These pullets are very large and they, are the quietest flock I ever worked with. I do not hesitate to say that for big, healthy chicks and real money makers, BRAY CHICKS are hard to beat. Yours truly, MRS. JAS. CARLISLE. They’ll pay you highest returns if you start them early , . , early enough to get them full-grown and laying big eggs by Fall. Also, you have more time to look after them properly if you start them early . . . early enough to get them past the. starting stage before Spring work begins in the1 field and garden. See us for prices and particulars, or write, or. phone— SOON. Mrs. Carlisle has been buying Bray Chicks for 8 straight years. Her letter tells you why: Vigor and high livability (252 raised out of 255 received) . . . big, strong birds . . , early, heavy, steady pro­ duction of big eggs, the kind that command' the big premium in the Fall. Bray Chicks are just the kind you want beneath your brooder. ? f WANTED—20 cords 16" hardwood, also 30 cords 14" hardwood. For particulars apply to Geo. T. Rob­ ertson, Chairman Property Commit­ tee, United Church.

Mitchell and Cruick­ shank took care of the defence duty playing the sixty minutes' and each got an assist on the score sheet. Zu- lauf took over the goal assignment, and in his only game this year, did a very good job. The penalties handed out by the of­ ficials were .very few but the play was very strenuous at times, cross-check­ ing and high sticking being evidence to all except the This win put Goderich in Hanover for fourth position. Nichol opened the scoring in jig time but the Sailors came right back. Play was very strenuous and after Nichol’s goal .it was a battle. The period ended two-all as W. Westbrook tallied. Goderich opened the scoring in the second period, but half way through Cy Proctor tied it up. In the closing min-ute of the period the Sailors again went to the front, and in the third per- ior scored four times to make it 8-3. The fans have little or nothing to worry about in.the loss of this game as the Indians y^ill be there when they start the play-offs, providing they can ice their full team.
