Hats off to Canada
(Strathroy Age-Dispaten)
That interesting bit of comment
came over the air to Canadian list-
eners recently, in a broadcast from
New York, which gave us quite an
unexpected thrill of nation pride and
gratification. The voice from the big
U. 5. metropolis • was radioing the
summary of results of an analytical
investigation of trade recovery by
th nations of the world, as made by
a firm of economical experts after a
'thorough review of statistics for
1933 up until Dec. 1st. 'The figures
quoted showed that Canada has led
the world in trade .recovery of her

Hogs and Prices

(The Weekly Sun)
Since the first of October, hog
prices have almost doubled in value..
:t :porta ge in Canada, the increased
Yeilue of the' English pound sterling
and other reasons, some not so ob-
vious, are responsible for this rapid
climb. As a result, farmers all ove,.

Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Kraft, who

sing of the former's father, Mr.
Louis J. Kraft, left for their home in,

Mr. and Mrs. Rhein. J. Kalbfleisch
