A Perfect Match for A Perfect Hatch!
Maybe a "perfect" hatch is a bit far-fetched, but we do claim that you can get
a better and surer hatch every time!
There's no profit in low-hatching eggs. You've got to be able to point to a high-
hatching, record to get the best price 'foryour hatching eggs.
Breeding flocks must have a breeding mash high in Riboflavin. SHUR-GAIN
Hatchmaker Concentrate is made with top quality liver meal, the richest source
of this vitamin available.°
With all hatcheries expecting to be working at their maximum capacity this
spring, you can't afford to waste time and money on infertile eggs. SHUR-
GAIN Hatchmaker Concentrate custom, mixed at your local SHUR-GAIN Feed
Service Mill with your own ground grain makes a Perfect Match-adequate in
every way to'assure you of, as near perfect hatches as modern, feeding know-
ledge makes possible.

PRISONER-OF-WAR
EDUCATION
Canadian prisoner-of-war in Ger-
many are not wasting their time but,
on the contrary are in thousands tak-
ing some kind of educational course,
These Canadians, many of whom, have
been prisoners for three or four years,
have studied everything from how to
cook the food they received in Red
Cross parcels, to Plato's "Republic".
A recent letter from a sergeant thank-
ed Legion officials for sending at his
request a copy of Fulle's History of
Philosophy. A letter from a Flying
Officer says he is doing three hours
studying a day on subjects that in-
clude trigonometry, algebra, geometry,
business arithmetic and bookkeeping,
All his books have been supplied
through the Legion's educational divi-
sion, the letter adds. We have one
flier from this district who was sup-
plied with books from the Legion.

HATS OFF TO THE RED
CROSS WOMEN
A total of 13,743,051 articles have
been made and donated by Red Cross
women of Ontario from 1939 to Sep-
tember 1944. Not little bits of sew-
ing, but women's suits, top coats, more
than a quarter of a million quilts;
tune neck sweaters, men's trousers,
windbreakers, 'seamen's stockings,
sheets, dressing gowns, hospital sup-
plies of many types. Besides all this,
over two and a half million of the sur-
.gical dressing they made were shipped
this year; and from 1939 to 1944, a
total of seventeen and a half million
surgical dressings were , made. From
1941 to '44, period during which On-
tario operated its own warehouse 5,-.
427,168 yards of material, 739,655
pounds of wool, valued at $2,348,025,
went into the making of finished arti-
cles.

NO DIPHTHERIA
IN BRANTFORD
A striking illustration of what can
be done in the prevention of diphther-
ia is provided by the city of Brant-
ford, Ontario. This city with a popu-
lation of 34,843 in 1943, in the year
1928 had 28 cases of diphtheria with
4 deaths. In 1930 a big Toxoid Cam-
paign was inaugurated. During the
campaign the help of every ,doctor in
the city was enlisted and clinics were
set up in all schools and $,524 chil-
dren were immunized. The last case
of diphtheria occurred in Novembe4
1930, Since that date almost fourteen
years ago the good work has been kept
up with the result that there has not
been a single ease, o£ diphtheria since.
There is not immediately available a
record, of any other city of comparable
size in which there has been no diph-
theria for as long a time. Hamilton,
Ontario, with no cases for ten years
in a city with a population of 1'74,547,
has probably achieved a world record
for cities:in its own population group.
