A Large Shipment of Poultry.—
Messrs. Kennedy Bros., of the Pal-
ace ',Meat Market, ,Seaforth, have
been doing a rushing business in
poultry diiring. the' last few weeks.
On Saturday last they shipped over
five tons of poultry. In the :let
were about 500 turkeys and the bal
aim was made up mostly of chick-
ens: The turkeys were undressed'
but the chickens weredry plucked
and boxed up. When all were, got-
ten together they -Made a magnifi-

used for home consumption. The
fowl industry is worth cultivating;
as it is a medium through which a
large amount of money is circulated
annually.
Sugar Beets.—Several farmers in
this viciniti- have geown sugar beets
this Past season, and so far as we
have been able to learn they have'
proven a fairly remunerative orop,
-that is where they have been har-
vested in tintie. Mi. James Co -wan,
whose farm, adjoins the town on the
north ' Side had. nearly three acres
under the crop and they netted him
$202 for the land and. the labor. He
estimates the cost of the labor at
$100, thus leaving him $34 per acre
-
for the use of the land: ' But •Mr.
Cowan was fortunate in having his
roots harvested end shipped early
before the bad weather set in. A
good many others were tot so for-
tunate and some have them still
in the ground. In these cases the ore -
sults will, likely be disappointing.
All the beets grown in this district
are shipped. to the Berlin factory.
There are a few points which, tif the
company would observe, would aid
materially in popularizing the busi-
ness with farmers. They should have
room enough at the factory to ac-
commodate all the roots at they are
forwarded. Th ie year some farmers
were permitte to ship only part
of their crop when it was ready for
• shipment and the balenoe as the
company are ready f.- to receive it.
This necessitates . additional handl-
ing by the farmer' and consequently
increased cost and less prdfits, be-
sides delay in receiving ;set, urns.
Then, again, the company Should be
prepared to pay- for each ear load
as it is received and tested instead
of waiting until ,ethe whole crop is
received and tested at the: factory.
The company should also make their
cheques payable at par at the point
ofshipment instead of at Beelin,
thus throwing on the grower the
hand to pay the highest price in NO for hides,
skins, raw furs and tallow at A. W. Stopie's egg em-
porium.
