Ontario Provincial Winter Fair,
Guelph—December 5 to 7.
Beauty Parlors for Dairy Cows
An important step in clean milk
production is to clip the udders, hips,
and flanks of the cows, thus making
the daily brushing much easier and
more effective. Clipping of the tail,
head, neck and shoulders adds to the
appearance of the cows, and aids in
getting rid of lice, which will mult-
iply quickly at this time if not prom-
ptly eradicated. A good wet or pow-
der shampoo repeated in ten days
time will do the trick.
Taking More Prominent Part
In Export to Great Britian
Since September, Canada has com-
menced to take a place among the
more 'imp'ortant suppliers of eggs to
the British markets. Some 128,000
dozen of eggs were exported during
that month. Prices to Canadian prod-
ucers have recently improved steadily.
Fresh receipts of eggs are somewhat
scarce and continued firmness in price
is probable. Those p roducers who
wisely hatched or purchasedearly
chicks, are in a position to at least
make some profit as a result of a-
dopting firm
-doptingfirm' business methods. Can-
adian eggs continue to be exported
in fair volume. The Toronto and
Montreal markets continue very firm.

Honey Exports Increasing
Domestic Price is Rising
Indications are for a shortage of
honey in Ontario next spring, report-
ed the Ontario Marketing Board re-
cently. Total white honey exports of
all grades from the Province are now`
in excess of 300 tons, which taken
together with crop variously reported
from 40 to 50% less than last year,
and with u al exports from the
n s bs -tantip
Province of Quebec, leaves the entire
domestic market cleaned up of all
surplus supplies. Prices are rising to
producers users and few
beekeepers. are
selling bulk lots for less than 8 cents
per pound f.o.b. shipping point for top
grades. This is an increases of ap-
proximately 2 to 3 ,cents per pound
as compared with 1081,
The British market is reporting a
lively interest in Canadian honey this
year due, somewhat, to the fact that
a world shortage of this erop is re-
ported, except for domestic product-
ion in England. In addition, the be-
nefit of the Imperial Perference A-
greements, which give Empire honey
a protection of '7 shillings per long
cwt., are being realized to the max-
imum for the first time this year
since their adoption.
Ontario Fruit Storage
The cold storage warehouse recent-
ly erected at Woodstock, Ontario,
with its 10,000 barrel capacity is an-
other unit in a chain of cold storage
warehouses that gives Ontario facil-
ities for 200,000 barrels of apples.
The warehouse has facilities to handle
the storage of all kinds of fruits and
vegetables.
Unfinished Hogs
All unfinished hogs offered at the
stockyards and packing plants, such
as do not conform to the require-
ments of the grading regulations are
graded as feeders, and it is in the in-
terests of the producers to make ev-
ery effort to hold back hogs of select
bacon, and bacon weights, until they
are properly finished. Underfinished
pigs make soft bacon and poor cuts
and roasts.
Juniors Create Interest at
Ottawa Winter Fair
The Junior Department at the Ot-
tawa Winter Fair again brought out
a large number of competitors and
keen competition :resulted. The vari-
ous competitions also created a good
deal of interest on the ringside, The
two-day program included classes op-
en to Caif Club members, showman-
ship competition and Inter -County
Competitions in the judging of live
stock and seeds.
In the Calf Club competitions, 54
club members exhibited their calves.
In the Holstein section, the .group
from Prince Edward County won the
high honors against strong competi-
tion. In the section open to Ayrshir-
es, the group from the Williamstown
Ayrshire Club, Glengarry County, re-
peated their win which they made at
the Central Canada Exhibition, Iii'
the beef section, the group from Ren-
frew also repeated their win made at
the August show.
The Showmanship classes brought
out 68 competitors and the officials,
H. W. Graham of Kemptville and A.
D. Runions of Peterborough, found it
difficult to snake the awards, so pro
ftcient have the young men become
in exhibiting their animals.
The Inter -County Judging Compe-
titions also maintained their usual in-
terest. The Inter -County Live Stock
Judging Chompionship for Eastern
Ontario was wort by Lanark County
team
In the Seed Judging, Renfrew
County was victorious,
Other features which attracted a
gooddeal of. interest in tne live stock
department, were the county herds
andi inter • county pens of sheep and
hogs. In the former, LanarkCounty
wasawarded the premium honors in
th.e 'Holsteins and in sheep, Carleton
County pen was •victorious, .while .in
hogs, the honours again went to Lan-
ark County.
Milk Coling During
the Colder Months
Do not attempt to cool milk by
setting the cans out-of-doors, even in
frecaing weather; It takes far too
long for the milk to cool to 50 de-
grees F., for air is a good insulator
but a poor cooling medium. Use a
cooling tank with water as cold as
possible, and keep the level up to the
necks of the cans.
Watch the Seed Fairs
• The adaptability of different vari-
eties of grain to different soil and
climatic conditions is reflected to no
small extent in the degree of develop-
ment attained by individual kernels.
Varieties which consistently win high
places at our seed fairs are therefore
likely to be at least reasonably well
suited to the district from which they
come. Moral: Watch the winners at
the seed Fairs!
Too Many Green Apples
On British Markets.
Arrivals of Canadian apples at the l
rate of 150,000 to 250,000 barrels a
week have knocked the bottom out of
the British apple market for the time
being, as supplies of this magnitude
far exceed the demand in the early
part of the season, when English ap-
ples have not yet been disposed of.
Green apples, and particularly On-
tario Greenings, are in excessive sup-
ply on the British markets, says An-
drew Fulton, Overseas Fruit Repre-
sentative. Where Ontario growers
have the advantage of cold storage
facilities, Mr. Fulton considers that it
is likely to pay to hold suitable var-
ieties back for shipment after the
New Year.
It is colour and not variety that
sells Ontario dessert apples in Great
Britain, and poor prices are being ob-
tained for otherwise good fruit that
is lacking in colour. Buyers are dis-
criminating against green or partly
green fruit, largely because the mar-
kets generally are in a congested state
owing to excessive supplies.
Some specially fine coloured Snow
apples sold as high as 22 shillings a
barrel, while similar apples with less
colour off the same steamer sold
from 13 shillings upwards. In . the
first week in November, choice On-
tario Jonathans in barrels, being
scarce, made from 22 to 27 shillings
a barrel. On the .other hand, beauti-
ful No. 1 Greenings were selling from
12 14 shillings, simply because
to g, pY
there will be large quantities of low-
priced English cooking apples avail-
able until Christmas ,and these fix the
price level of all cooking apples.
:Mr. Fulton adds that there is only
one place to store apples and that is
in Ontario. Th bulk of the Green-
ings
l`
ings he had examines" this season
Would not stand cold storage in Great
Britain after arrival there, as they ail
showed indications of some degree
of ripeness. It has been his experien-
ce
'ricn-
ce
that once Greenings have been car-
ried at a warm temperature and have
started to work, cold storage will not
retard the ripening process sufficient-
ly to warrant the extra expense in-
volved.

CHIEF IS ATTACKED
BY TRANSIENT
Hobo Refused Meal, Makes Trouble
For West End Residents
Chief of Police James V. Ryan
narrowly escaped serious injury on
Wednesday morning when a transient
whom he was attempting to arrest,
threw a pair of scissors at him. Only
the agility of the Chief in throwing
up an arm, saved him from possible
facial injury. The scissors, pierced the
Chief's sleeve and drew blood.
The transient, who had spent the
night in the town hall, refused the
meal that was offered him and refus-
ed to work the buck saw on the wood
pile.
Making his way up John Street, he
stopped at the home of Col. R. S.
Hays and asked for a meal. When
advised to go to the town hall, he is
said to have spoken impertinently'
and left.
As the transient went out the walk
Mrs. Hays saw hirn pick up a pair of
scissorsthat had been lost a few days
before and asked him to return them,
but he refused. It was then that Chief
Ryan was called.
After making stops at, other west
end residences, the transient headed.
up the highway "towards. Clinton.
Chief Ryan in: a car driven by George
Hays and accompanied by Hugh Oke,
caught up to him a short distance
beyond Harpurhey cemetery.
When he refused to hand over the
scissors, the Chief began searching
him only to have the scissors sud-
denly thrown at him. The knight of
the road then broke away, running
across the fields. The Chief fired four
shots in the air in an effort to stop
him, but to no avail.
The scissors were recovered and
Chief Ryan telephoned neighboring
towns to be on the lookout for . the
character. Transients were a source
of worry to officials on Tuesday and.
Wednesday of this week. On Tues-
day night three men applied for meals
and a bed but were so drunk; and dis-
orderly they had to be locked up —
