Mr. Or- val Tiffin's barn was burned to, the ground: Mr. Tiffin lives on the 4th Con, of Kinloss and hewas in the grainary filling up a load of grain to take to the chopper, whin the lan- tern, which was hanging on a nail, fell to the 'floor and exploded. He was successful in getting his stock out but could not get thehens.. out before the fire had made too much headway. He is having a sale of his stock on Friday, Jan. 22. The ` barn was insured, and Mr. Tiffin intends to rebuild in the spring; Friends in this community sympathize with hire in his loss.

"While registration : will serve many other purposes, such as pest and, disease control, provide mailing lists for marketing and other infor mation`; yet its primary purpose is to enable the Council to know who pro- duces the various varieties of fruits and vegetables in the province and so be able to put buyers in touch with growers who wish to sell their prc.ducts," • Feed Sunshine Cod liver oil, the sunshine substi- tute, is one of the most important items in the properly balanced poul- try ration. Where birds are closely confined during the winter months,, l f C - as is tie case in most parts o an ada, they receive very little . direct sunlight, and with the rations usually fed they clo not receive all thevita- iniin,s they require. Calciunz'and phos- phortis are two minerals specially re- quired for laying pullets and hens in file manufacture of eggs. The diges trlo;n and assimilation of. materials, especially calcium, require one of two things: an abundance of direct sun- . 4; or an abundance of. vitamin D. 'Cod liver oil is rich .in vitamin D; and is one of the reliable sources of i;l3 s type of food. 'Why does the •sailor know there is .a, pian in the moon? Because he has 'been to sea (see).
