C. G.. MIDDLEITON WINS SUIT
Mr. -Chas. G. Middleton won • his
case, for damages . at the supreme
court sitting in Goderich yesterday
against Ross Cardiff and his father,
L E: -Cardiff_ reeve of Morris Town-
ship, arising out of an automobile
''accident on highway No. 8, on No-
vember 9, . 1934, one mile west_
Seaforth. . The ex -sheriff for
$1000, defendants. entering,a counter
claim for $300.
Judgment was given Tuesday night
for Mx•. Middleton of $600 and coats.
Evidence claimed that when Form-
er Sheriff Middleton and Constable
Thomas Gundry, returning from
Kingston, whither they had taken a
prisoner, had passed over the crest of
a hill opposite the farm of John Rine
tout; Mr, Middleton was confronted
by a car driven by Ross Cardiff trav-
elling on the wrong side of the road
184 feet away. Mr, ,Middleton
was driving and in seeking to avoid
a head-on crash. he turned to his left,
or wrong side of the highway, pre-
sumably to go around the Cardiff car.
Just as he did 'so young Cardiff steer-
ed over to his right side and there
was a head-on crash. Both ears were
extensively damaged, but the occu-
pants escaped injury.'
Plaintiff based his case that de-
fendant was travelling on his wrong
side of the road while the defence
maintained that plaintiff was travel-
ing et' an excesside speed and could
have avoided., he crash by applying
the brakes.

YOU NEED
RAPID GROWTH
IN
MAY AND JUNE
CHICKS
May and June Batched chicks are
not too late to make laying pullets
before the good winter egg prices
fall off. It's true that chicks must
have a super -abundance of vigor
and growthiness bred into them be-
fore they will snake early layers.
But that's why Bray's "X-tra-Pro-
fit"' chicks hatched from 'BIG eggs
fill the need so well for rapid
growing chicks at this time of
year.
•
Our 1310 hatching eggs (25 oz.
up to 30 and 32 oz. per dozen)
generally come from the bigger,
more productive hens in our breed-
ing flocks-and,in turn, the chicks
from BIG eggs inherit the unusual
vigor and growthiness of their
mothers. It's true that buying
GOOD chicks in itself is not e-
nough to assure you of an early
laying flock. But with ordinary
gooct management and good feed-
ing, Bray's "X-tra-Profit" pullets
will begin laying at 4l, to 5
Months old. We know of many
Bray flocks that were layine 50%
at a months.
You'll be in on winter egg mon-
ey in December and January if
you buy "Xtra -Profit" chicks, feed
them well and give them ordinary
good management this summer.
Our prices on May and June
hatched chicks are particularly at-
tractive. And you can save $1.00
per hundred by placing your order
30 days in advance. A. 10% de-
posit books your order. Stop in
