In the winter months the shorter and darker days create a maximum demand on your Hydro system. Conditions in this winter season are such that Hydro plants are loaded to the point, where it becomes necessary to ask for the co-operation of all Hydro users in saving electricity by every possible voluntary means. In the spring and summer season the urgency for conservation is not so great as in the fall and winter. The voluntary saving of electricity in homes, offices, theahiis, stores, and in industry, greatly relieves this condition. Your response was very helpful. To those who so willingly ' co-operated during this emergency period, Hydro says, "Thank You." In many localities Hydro stations and lines are overloaded because of the delay in obtaining neces- sary new equipment. 'therefore, do not waste electricity—use Hydro wisely at all times.

April 6, "What Resurrection really, means"; Siunday, April 13, What Sacrament really means"". • THIS LOOKS LIKE THE YEAR TO MAKE REAL MONEY IN POULTRY HERE'S WHY -- and the way we estimate supply and prices • • .• • • • Egg Price Ceilings Removed • The British contract will take up all surplus eggs to May 31, and a sharp rise in prices is expected in June and July. Estimates are that production of baby chicks and turkey poults in the United States is dorm by from 40-59%. This means the United States will have far less eggs, chickens and turkeys for export and might even want to buy Canadian eggs, ready -to -lay pullets, poultry meat and turkeys. In January past 35 carloads of American turkeys were shipped to Ontario. Feed Prices in the United States are high at the present time due perhaps to a great extent speculation, thus greatly curtailing chick purchases, but feed prices are expected to lower again this summer, so this may create a demand in the United States for Canadian •Poultry Products. THE POULTRY INDUSTRIES COMMIT'PEE IS TRYING and expects to get an increase in export egg and poultry prices for our surplus for 1947 and 1948. It is expected that price ceilings in beef, pork and poultry meat will be reproved this summer, so there should be a good home demand and prices should be better, for the coming Fall and Winter. • • • • • • Poultry Meat Prices Summing it all up, it looks like the year to start as Many chicks as early as at all possible. Don't let the temporary feed and egg and poultry meat prices change your mind on the amount of pullets or cockerels you buy. What you are buying now are not for im- mediate markets. Cheap ordinary chicks often cost more to raise than good chicks. It takes at least the same amount of feed, time, space and equipment to raise poor quality chicks as it does to raise the best. BI_TY LAKEVIEW CHICKS BACKED BY A REAL LAYING AND BREEDING PLANT All Breeders double bloodtested, banded and culled. Hatched, handled and shipped right in modern up-to-date equipment.

BETTER RESULTS Plan 1. Place some of your range shelters on tate barn floor or mow. You can snake a pen with a little fence wire or gates, etc. If the weather is cold, sack. the shelters on three sides. Pullets or cockerels can be handled satisfactorily at 4 weeks old and often do better than. if left overcrowded in a colony house. 6 week old chickens should have 1 sq, 'ft. floor spaee per hied. Pian 2. Place shelter's along front or east side of colony house. Out a small door and let them run into the range shelters as young as 3 weeks old. Shelters can be sacked or• boarded in on 3 sides. Plan 3. Place 2 shelters together end for end and put 100 to 125 pullets in the 2 combined shelters. Let thein roost in one end and feed in the other or have slatted sides and place feed and water, troughs on outside same as is customary with turkeys in wire pens.
