SUGAR.
• 41,
WE have just unloaded
our first carload of Sugar
for 1903. As this car-
load has been shipped
directly from Redpath's
efinery, we are enabled
t� sell it as usual at
the wholesale price.
As we have on hand a
carload of POTATOES
as well as a carload of
Sugar, we are putting
both in the naarket at
very small profits.

Mr. George Swallow. of Goderich
township gave an address on aPortl-
try.'Farming, he said, now required
all the thought and effort 11 Mall

much care was required in regard. to
poultry aswith other stock on the
farm. They 'need not go back very
far to the time wheii. hens were not
cared for—allowed to roost wherever
they would, a . little grain throwa
them ocseasionally, let thou get water
as well as,they could, No 'wonder
they did not pay. But it WilS very
different now, and with improved me-
thods men were beginning to find
there was Some profit in poultry.
Those who said fowls do not pay
were those who did not give them
proper attention.. Experience showed
that fowls would pay as well as any
other stock the farmer had, with the
right kind of care. To get the best
returns they must lay in the winter,
when the merket is lagli and to induce
thent to lay they must have comfort-
able quarters and mest be fed judic-
iously. Tire food must be as near as
possible to what they get in the sum -
trier, grass and • gruts. The speaker
fed his fowl clover they. regularly he
.ctit it in eunnuea, preserved it in the
best condition possible until winter,
mixed a little charcoal with it and
the hens ate it eagerly. The cost was
very little. • The substitute for the
grubsthey got in' sumtner was ground
bone. A hen was supposed to pity
for her own Ned and one dollar a
year. Those who . wait till warm
weather for their hens to lay would
find their. .ehickens late in hatching,
and when their fowl .was ready for
killing it would be on the market in
alnindauce and prices would. lie low.
The man who wanted a profit woald
resort to the incubator and have his
hens ready to fatten early. The ex-
Portation of poultry from Canada had
increased tenfold in valuein ten
years and was now about '1 300,000,
and the inilitations were it would in-
crease. Failures in keeping poultry
were on account of • not understancliag
how .to care for them. Ile would ad -
vacate a purebred fowl always, It
cost no more to raise a purebred than
a mongrel, but it took a. good deal
more to fatten a mongrel than a
thorobred, . Cleanliness in the poultry
house was necessary. There Was an
unlimited market in Great Britain,
for fowl properly fattenedIn rega.rd

At. a meeting of the West Huron
Farmers' Institute held in Coderich
last week Mr. F. C, Elford, the ener-
genic •secretary, took' up the •subject
of the seed investigation which has
been carried on ay the Dominion De-
partment of A,griculture, Samples of
seed as sold. by dealers were procured
by the department from' various pla-
ces and the result' of the. investigation
were in some • cases rather startling.

Canada's exports in this elase were
valued at Aoo,000 ; now they vsere
'I 3,000,000. The comparative percent:,
ages of pork produee4 or marketed
were calculated thus ; 70 per cent.Nol
„ 20 per cent. fat ; 7 par cent soft ;
and 3 per cent. bruised. It cost no
more to produce what the market
called lox- than the inferior product
for which less was realized. The
speaker detailed the proper methods
of leeding and explained the causes of
soft, fat and. bruised. pork. Speaking
of bruised pork, he said, the blame for
this wo.s to be charged to the drover
and . not to the farmer. 'the hogs
were prodded after they left the far-
tner's hands. The farmer knew too
much to injurii his property by treat-
ing them in this way„ There was
more profit in pigs if they were 1(1 -'lowed to run and get some exercise;
If hog -raisers would: observe the ex-
perimental reports they would and
them pretty nearly corrects
There was an interesting cliscueSion
of the subject. Otte person, thought
the quickest way to get returns
from hogs was to get them away; as
soon as possible. He did not think in
was well to let them run too muchs
The drovers did not make any differ-,

cut kinds of pork, so he did not. see
why the fernier should raise any but
the cheapest kind. ,
