Cream Consumption In The
Dominion
Tire consumption of cream, as well
RS the consumption of almost any oth-
er food product, may vary With the
locality. It .may not be the same in
urban as in rural areas, and it may
also vary to a considerable "extent
from one rural area to another and
from one urban area to another. In
the recent survey of milk and cheese
consumption in Canada byythe Econ-
omic Branch of the Dominion Depart-
ment of Agriculture, in: co-operation
with the Provincial Departments of,
Agriculture it was found that the
consumption of cream is highest in
farm areas where it stands about 0.36
of a,,pint per head per. week. ,The
consumption of cream is ahnost the
same in cities as in villages, the fi-
gures showing a weekly per head 'con-
sumption of 0.26°and 0.25 of a pint
respectively, This gives' an average
figure of 0.28 o1 a pint for all local.'
sties.
' All localities situated in Alberta
shot
v a much higher e
o sum ria
7 of
crew r I
m than localities in either Ontario
or Quebec. In the city of Calgary the
consumption is 0,48 of a pint, while
in the city of Oshawa in Ontario it'
is 0.17 of a pint and in Quebec City
0.14 of a pint, The difference is still
greater
with
vi1la
s
. The weeklyper
head consumption of cream is 0.42
of a pint in Claresholm, Alberta,' and
only 0.09 of a pint in Uxbridge, On-
tario, and do:
0.11 of .n Min in St. Ro-
n -maid, Quebec.
The faint areas show great varia-
tions.in the Yates of cream consump-
tion, Two non -cheese producing farm
areas (one in Ontario ,and one in
Quebec) 4how a larger consumption
of cream than n
a two other 1 i cheese pro-
ducing : areas in these provinces, and
the Alberta farm area under review
shows a ranch higher cream consump-
tion than the twofaun areas in. On-
tario and Quebec. The Quebec
cheese -producing farm area has a low
consumption of cream with a weeldy
per head consumption of only 0.8 of
a' pint and a weekly per family of
0.62 of a pint. The latter; is even a
lower rate than the per head San-'
sumption for the Alberta rural area.'
Details abd tables dealing with this
creant consumption study are to be
found in the April.Economie Annalist,

WHERE PEOPLE WILL SEE • IT
It is an amusing thing to_the news
writers on a newspaper when they
hear somebody suggest that they
would like to have an item or an ad-
vertisement itt the paper `where peo-
.ple will see it." The news writers
know that people see every item and
every. ad. People see a "3" when it
should be ,"5", and they see every
wrong initial, every misspelled name
and every omission of items they ex-
pect to see. "Where people will see
it?" There is no such place you can
put anything in the newspaper that
people will not see it.

France, as a general ruse, imports
her requirements of durum wheat
from her North African colonies -
Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia -but,
on the present basis of reduced pro-
deletion, Moroceo has not enough
wheat for its own needs and has im-
ported so far about 45,000 tons of
Canadian amber durum. Tunisia is
also facing a deficiency, and it is es-
timated that durum wheat imports
from Canada so far have amounted to
7,000 tons, in addition to wheat
bruught to Tunisia from the adjoin-
ing colony of Algeria.
GODERICE-Whether or not Ro-

car on a farmer near here, the car
shining like the proverbial shining
heel, the billy goat, seeing his reflec-
tion, launched an attack on the door,
and had inflicted several dinges and
not a few scratches before being dri-

The old adage, "It's an ill wind

Wednesday during the wind storm,
when a large metal shavings bin on
the roof of the C.F.M. factory was

who recently purchased the factory,
had no objection to the wind. "It

Official Forecast That Eggs Will Be Scarce From
September to January ... Chicks and Pullets for
May Delivery at Prices You Dont Expect
Till June. •
There always has been money in May chicks, when you bought
quick -growing stock that would develop to laying at five months
old. Five months from' May is October, which is right in the high -
egg -price season.
This year's opportunity for May chicks is probably the best it has
ever been. You can buy chicks or started pullets today, for May
delivery, at prices you don't expect till the middle of June,' You
have the Department of Agriculture's official forecast that eggs
will be scarce (and, therefore, high-priced) from September to
January. And there is every likelihood that feed prices will drop
away down, as soon as this season's crop is harvested. • The fellow
who has eggs to sell between September and January should be able
to more than make up for the past Winter's unfavorable situation.
Buy Started Pullets That Will Lay in September
We can supply you with pullets that are well started, and will be
laying in early September .(or before) if well fed through the range
period. They are now three to 10 weeks old, and they are from our
famous "Xtra -Profit" stock which has built up a country -wide repu-
tation for rapid development, early eggs, large eggs, and the neces-
sary ruggedness to stand continued heavy laying without moults or
set -backs. We have any number of reports showing "Xtra -Profit"
pullets up to 50% production at six months old, and continuing at
50% and 70% production through the entire Fall and Winter..
We can give you your choice of seven popular breeds. Pullets three
weeks old and upward in all breeds, and un to 10 weeks in some
breeds,
Some Prices Reduced $7,00 per Hundred
We are going to clear these pullets in May, at prices away below
our April quotations. We can also supply day-old chicks and sexed
pullets, in all breeds, at correspondingly low prices for immediate
delivery. (Soule of our May prices are $7,00 per hundred lower
than previously published in this paper). They are the most out-
standing values we have ever offered to our poultry -raising public.
Don't buy till you see this May price list, and get full particulars
about the rapid development of. Bray's "Xtra-Pxofjt":stock. Cali,
