passed the experimental stage, and
there should be no hesitation about

The public meeting called for on
Monday night, in the 'town hall, con-

by business men • and 'others, to bear

who thoroughly •understand the
scheme; and who are• endeavoring to

The chair was occupied by H-B.Oombe,
who is -an enthusiast.<'. The: speakers
were Messrs A.McD, Allan, 'W.R.Beld-

it:was .expected that Hon T. T. Garrow,

able to do eo. Similar meetings were

While in :the United States their le -
come from poultry was,: in 1900, over
5800,000,000. Canadians think a person
is exaggerating when they run into fig
urea among the without; whendealing
with the poultry question. But they -
haste *never had an opportunity to ,p;o
duce large •quantities,' simply because,
there has been no place-heretoforein'
this part to handle them. Six weeks

cannot

farmers sacrifice their poultry,thedeal-

merchant would prefer the cash. All
this could be done away with byhav-
ing a poultry finishing •;station: and a
cold storage : plant, where 'vast' quan-
tities could be stored until required or
until cold Weather sets in. The poultry,

' Mr A, Mel),. Allan,' of Goderich, who_.
spoke next; and who has been a re re•
sentatiye at the World'sp
y Fair, took
the matter in 'hand, dealing with the
handling of fruitas he had seen it at,,
Paris, Glasgow and elsewhere, At
these places the entire exhibit had come
out•ot cold storageand called forth con-
tinual outhurets of amazomen t from the
public when they found the fruit was
from twelve to . eighteen monthe old
and had. ;retalned their bright—
appear-ance through that length of time. Mr
Alien proyed conclusively that there is
one Way, and one way only, by which
we can,obtain good prices for our per-
ishable, products, and that tightens ie
cold storage. It'ie preseed on us by
