Death of Henry (Harry) Daer Our village and community was shocked .on Monday afternoon when learning of the sudden death of John Henry Daer of the 13th concession of Hullett township.. Mr. Deer had been about his usual farm work dur- ing the day and about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, he and his son, Roy,. had just gotten the binder into the barn before a heavy rain fall, and Mr. Daer had closed the ,barn doors when he was seized with a heart attack, and died before medical aid could be sununoned, The deceased ratan, who was in his 66th year, having been born October 9, 1873, was the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Jelcn Daer of West Wawanosh, and following his marriage to Lena Schaeffer of Zur- ich, 34 years ago, he has been a very successful farmer, on the farm where his death occurred.: Henry Daer was a member of the Lutheran Church until the services were discontinued, and since tliiat'time had.been an ad- herent of Knox Presbyterian church. He will be missed in the community where he has always been ready to effer a helping hand, was a kince neighbour and a staunch friend. Mrs. Daer passed away six years ago. Mr, Daer is survived by two sons, Roy on the home place, Clarence of East Wawanosh, on the Blyth road; five brothers, Samuel of ;Auburn, Herman of Auburn, William,, Robert and George, all of Goderich; four sisters, Mrs. Joseph Miler of Windsor, Mrs. Thebedeau of London, Mrs. Dan Wil- lis of Goderich and Mrs. John Yung- biut of Kitchener. The funeral will be held Wednesday afternoon from the farm residence. Interment will be in Ball's cemetery.

Mrs, Douglas Wheeler and son, Mrs. G. Livermore and Mrs. Croden and 'daughter were guests on Wednesday of their brother, Mr. D. L. Stephenson. PURCHASE EXETER PROPERTY Mr. G. M. McKnight, who for the past three years, has conducted the Massey -Harris farm implement busi- ness in Exeter has formed a part- nership with his brother, J. L. Mc- Knight, formerly of Clinton, who conies to Exeter from London. The latter is at present staying with his brother, and Mrs. McKnight .and 'daughter, Sandra, will move to Ex- eter as soon as a home can be secur- ed, McKnight Brothers have pur- chased the building they are now in, formerly known as the Exeter Opera House Block from Mr, Arthur Jones•, A MASSEY-HARRIS "CLIPPER" COMBINE IN ACTION ' MASSEY-HARRIS DEMONSTRATION OF COMBINE HARVESTING • Large Attendance of Farmers See Latest Types of Cost -Reducing Machines in ,OPeration The ease and simplicity of harvest- ing grain with a "Clipper" combine was demonstrated to hundreds o f :farmers and many other interested people on the Dufferin Street Farm of Mr. T. A. Russell, President of the Massey -Harris Company on Wed- nesday last. Close. to eight htmdred came to get first-hand information' en the worldng of this , machine and all were most favorably impressed with the way it handled ..the grain in a stand of fall wheat running well over thirty-nine bushels to the acre. To those familiar with the estab- lished routine of harvesting grain • crops—cutting, etoolcing, pitching and hauling and finally harvesting—the all in one action of the combine with only two men required to da the work seemed the height of perfection. Re- clueing the number of operations to the bare minimum of course naturally brings about a very substantial sav- ing in the costs, There' is nu twine too buy; time is no expense for labor in. stooking there is no thresher's bill to pay; and nothing extra is ad- ded to the housekeeping expense 'in providing meals for large threshing crews. Another feature about coma bine harvesting that appeals to many is that the exchange of work with neighbors which often comes at most inopportune times is not required. Insofar as the economical side of the method is concerned it is estimat- er that the actual out-of-pocket ex- pense with the combinemethod is about equal to or less than the cost of binder twine with the regular way of harvesting. It means something worth. while to a farmer to be able to save up to $1.50, per acre with the combine, and there is a saving of grain and seed too that means quite a lot when harvesting seed hay, craps. Also the new type of combine as demonstrated in the "Clipper" and the tractor required to operate it can be purchased nowdays at a cost of over twelve hundred dollars' less than it took to ears •aequip- ment o tobuy e gquip rnent of similar capacity. Operating cost of the present, day machines, is much lower, too, , particularly when a modern tractor is used with one of the new low -coat power -take -off combines. Attending the demonstration as the personal guests of Mr. T. A. Russell were over one hundred and fifty of the men retired on pension from the Toronto and Brantford plants of the Massey -Harris Company and were most enthusiastic about the success of the combine. All . of the sten present had exten- sive service with the Company, many with records dating back to the Sev- enties and Eighties. Mr. W. S. House of Brantford for instance joined the firm in ,1869 and retired on pension in 1929 and M'e. W. T. Brown of Tor- onto is another real old titter having been with the Company from 1872 to 1930. Quite -a few of these long service men had witnessed 't he development and introduction of the first self -binders and had •played a very active part •thecnsdlves- in the manufacture of the machine that so ably represented the skill of •Canadian workmen' in the great grain growing countries of the World. At this dem- onstration they say for the first time the present day answer' to the des 'mend for lower cost methods of''pro duction. Mingled With their pride in the fact that -the Company is pioneer- ing with the combine was, no doubt, a slight regret that they were not back in the old foundry, Tinge, knife or wood shop to lend their skill to the snaking of these new machines, As a result of their success in the field last leer more Massey -Harris "Clipper" Combines were purchased in Ontario to handle the 1939 harvest, and a general wide -spread use of the combine is indicated by the trend to- wards this method of harvesting. , CUT FLOWERS FLORAL DESIGNS For Every Occasion Co Ve Cooke FLORIST Phones: 66w and 661 A GOOD POULTRY MARKET We are always in the market for all kinds of live poultry: •Culling done at night by an experienced poultryman.
