What 1920 Seek of Sugar
Will, Buy at Present Day
A window •display that caused a
great deal of comment among travel,.
ling salesmen and others in Western
Ontario was a recent one put in by
T. H,ochin Co., of .Dutton. They
showed a bag of sugar priced at $17,-
75 which was the retail price in '20,
Opposite it was shown what the $17.-
7"5 would buy today—the same bag of
sugar, 3 packages shredded wheat, 2
of corn flakes, 1 Ib. of tea, 2 lbs. of
Coffee, 3 cans salmon, 1 jar of pick-
les, 1 jar of olives, 3 cans of tomat-
.oes, 2 cans of cprn,, 1 padkage meal,
1 package cake flour, 100 lbs. flour,
3 cans of cleaner, 1 can of baking
powder, 1 jar of jam, 1 box of mac-
aroni, 2 cans of pumpkin, 4 bottles
of ketchup, 3 packages of cornstarch,
2 lbs: of cheese, 2 packages of oat-
meal and 2 cans of spaghetti.
Frozen Milk Safe for Use
A great deal of difference of opin-
ion has existed, even among . medi-
ca `men, regarding the use by infants
of milk that has been frozen, and
many tests have been made. Many
parents have been advised not to give
their babies milk which has been fro-
zen and then melted again. Recently,
however, experiments have been
made at the Sick Children's Hospi-
tal in Toronto re•especting the matter
and information has been received to
the effect that there is not the slight-
est danger from the use by infants
of milk that has been frozen provided
that it is kept in a cool place until
such time as it is wanted for immed-
iate use. This information is very
valuable, and coming from such a re-
liable source as the Sick Children's
Hospital . there can be no doubt of
its authenticity, and there will be .a
feeling ofrelief among many mothers
who have heretofore been greatly in
doubt on this important question.
Bought Wingham Hotel
Mr. Matt. Bell, who for the past
three and a half years has been in
charge of the Queen's Hotel, Walk-
erton, which he had leased from the
proprietress, Mrs. Vogt, .has purchas-
ed the Brunswick Hotel.,in Wingham,
one of the leading hotels of the dis-
trict, and left with his wife and fam-
ily to take over his new charge.
Matt., who is the youngest son of
the late Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Bell
of Brant, conducted an hotel and.
poolroom in Hartney, Man., for many
years prior to taking over the
Queen's in Walkerton. He is .a cap-
able and experienced hotelman • and
gives the public almost unsurpassed
service in this regard. The removal
of himself, Mrs. Bell and four sons,
Mat., Andrew, Hugh and Raymond,
and daughter, Miss Nora, R.N., is a
distinct loss to the Bruce capital and
a decided acquisition to the neighbor-
ing town of Wingham. — Walkerton

Treaties Stimulate Market
The following excerpt from a
statement just issued by the 'Domin-
ion Live Stock Branch, is of special
interest at the present time: "The
passing of the Bill covering the Un-
ited Kingdolrn-Canada agreement as
the outcome of the Imperial Econ-
omic Conference had a stimulating
effect on the market for various
classes of meats in Great Britain. As
well, the raising of the special duty
on Free State cattle from 20 per
cent to 40 per cent., and the loss of
the 10 per cent. preference by the
Irish Free State, have been bullish
factors in ° the cattle market. This
week at Birkenhead steers and heif-
ers were quickly cleared at advanc-
es averaging approximately £3 per
head or, at the current rate of ex-
change, $11.31 per head above last
week's sales. There were no Canad-
ian cattle on the market, owing to
the narrow margin existing as a re-
sult of the very adverse condition of
exchange on sales in the British mar-
ket."
