DUMB ANIMALS AND B'I'RDS
ENTITLED TO •PROTECTION
Everybody doabbless knows that
the object of the Children's Aid Soci-
ety in •Harron •County is to .protect
helpless children, '.brut everybody does
not know that the officers of the C.
A. S. are also the officers of Herron
County IH'utnane Society. This, how-
ever, 'is the case, and the officers in-
vite the co-operation of the public
should cases of cruelty to or neglect
of animals, or birds occur in their
conttnunity.
While the efforts of the Children's
Aid Society are primarily in behalf of
unfortunate children, throughout the
County of II-uron, the officers are pre-
pared to •uti'lize such powers as they
possess in behalf of animals and birds.
The sentence of two months recent-
ly imposed in the Huron County
court on a man for mutilating a dog
should have a wholesome effect.
,One section of the Criminal Code
reads:
'Everyone is guilty of an offence
and liable, on summary conviction, to
a penalty not exceeding five hundred
dollars, over and above the amount of
injury Clone, or to one year's imprison-
ment with or without hard labor, who
(a) Unlawfully kills or attemps to
.1e111, maim, wound, poison, or in-
jure any dog, bird, beast or other
animal not being cattle, but being
either. the subject of iarceny at
common law, or being ordinarily
kept ti Pt i a 'state of confinement, or
kept for any lawful purpose; or
(1) Places poison in such a position
as to be easily partaken of by any
such dog, bird, beast or other ani-
mal."
It will be a source of gratification
to many citizens of the 'County of
Huron to learn that there is legal
machinery available for the protection
of dumb animals and birds, .and that
it can and will be set fn motion when-
ever the officers of the Humane Socia
ety deem .such a step advisa'b'le,
Donations to Shelter
The 215 cents membership fee in the
Children's Aid Society is used to .pro-
cure "extras" for those children whose
relatives are •financially unable to
assist them. The total aliment receiv-
ed .from this source is never very
large, and gifts of .fruit, preserves, clo-
thing or other articles will be grate-
fully received at the County Shelter
in ,Goclerieh.
The president of the Huron County
Humane Society '15 Dr. J. FI. Barnett
and Mr, A. M. Robertson is the secre-
tary, ,both of IGoclerich,
Frozen Vegetables
Asparagus, beans, corn, peas, and
spinach were the principal products
in the frozen vegetable pack in Can-
ada in 11191317. Like the .Canadian frozen
fruit pack, they are finding a ready
market in the hotel and restaurant
trade, but, as they require a tempera-
ture of about zero, they cannot 'he of-
fered to the ,general public until pro-
per storage 'facilities are available in
the retail trade.
Horses in Demand
The next annual :meeting of the Ca-
nadian Seed (Growers' !Association will

for the meeting are tJ'une 1115th, 1Oth
and '117th, 111908, and plans are under
way for a busy 'three days. it is ex-
pected that workers in the .promotion
of improved seed production from
coast to coast will the in 'attendance.
Officers conning from the west will
include the 'President, b'fr. 'F. W.
Townley -Smith, Lashburn, Sas'k., and

Alfalfa Hay Crop Moves
Movement of the 19517 !bumper crop

ty is now in 'full .swing. It is es'timate-

1A large portion of the crop is mov-

•Considerable' alfalfa is being ground

ture'experiment in 'feeding young deer

sees to thrive on the heavy clay land.
