Arbor Day has come and gone and
seldom has --a greater interest been
shown' in the planting of trees and a
general desire to beautify the town.
About fifteen Wren busied them-

was over about forty-five trees were
planted in the Parks and nearly one
hundred m various parts of the town..
The fence at the Library was taken
down, moved back bodily and set up
so as to hide the Linsightly building
behind the town hall. Tills : was a
maker. We extend congratulations.

More trees would have been planted
in Central Park but the grounds be
hind the Library Building are to be
levelled and seeded first and when
the fall comes the good work will be
continued. In: the Riverside Park
more trees would have been planted
also but Professor Tomlinson's "coin-

reached us •vet. When they do more
planting will be 'done.
One fine thing observable about
the day's work was the enthusiasm of
the workers and the desire to accom-

looking for the day when the whole
town will be as enthusiastic as these

Dear Friend,
Baker of Your Own Bread,
_ Allow us to whisper in your ear this
evening, one 'sweet consoling thought. It is. this:—We
= have the finest Flour for sale, made of pure' Western
Wheat and named Manitoba's Best. Al; your difficulties
in bread making will disappear like magic when you use
it. Won't you have your husband take you' home a bag
of it the next time he is in town? Some of our customers
say our flour makes more loaves than any other brand.
OUT Model Flour, a 50-50 blend of Ontario and
-Western Wheat, is bought by many: in preference to any.
_o other kind. They claim it makes a breaa with a deli-'.
cious flavor,. It is especially suited for "biscuits of the'
rich, soft, flaky variety. The whole family smite when
they see them.
Our Welcome brand, a pure Ontario Fall Wheat
Flour, is just what you need for pastry, as it requires
less shortening than other. flours and yields a pastry fit
for a king.
Yours for Service,
rve rose

OLD LANDMARK WILL 'i MANE
WAY FOR BUSINESS. EXPANSION
Thirteen years ago with a bashet
slung across the arm, a few new laid
eggs were gathered' together of an
evening, properly cared for and at
the end of the,weelc were shipped off
to the city market as:strictly new
laid eggs. This was the beginning
of an enterprise that has outgrown
its quarters twice and during the
next few weeks one of the old land-
marks of Exeter will make way for•
the erection of a' new store and resi-
dence to
esi-dence;to tale are of the present vol-
ume rte of business that SJr. C. 0'. Hoop-
er has worked, up in..that short time.
At the start Mr. Hooper'used to ship
a case of eggs a week. This soon in-
creased to three and four cases. The
second 'season Mr. Hooper started on
the road. to gather eggs: He soon
outgrew ills . quarters on Gidley
street, and purchased the property on
the corner of John and. Union: streets
Which he has used ever since. Each
year` has seen his business -increase
until' last year he'paid out to the
farmers $55,000 for eggs, The year
previous to that he paid out $65,000,
this being due to the high price, pre-
vailing.' On :Easter Saturday 1\.lr,
Hooper took in - 107: cases or 8,210.
dozen' eggs. The prospects this sea-
son are better than ever and Mr,
Hooper had to. seek, new quarters.
He has parchased the :property
on Main, street known as the old Roy-
al Hotel, train 141r. D. Wood: The
rickety frame building • which has
been an eyesore on Main street will
shortly be torn. down: to make room
for a new store - and dwolling house.
The store will be erected adjoining
the S•r'�ilior block and ai hotz:;we,.ti iTl bo
