On Tuesday, February lith last, a car-loal of lambs was sold on Toron- to market, having come all the way from Chicago. Sheep and lambs were in demand, and. the supply was not sufficient for the enquiry. Owners say that sheep and lambs are no' available in this country, and predis many shipments from Chicago ti spring, Choice lambs sold ai 0 30 per cent. on the date referrtd to This is a fair indication of the slacnt- age of sheep in Canada, and the pre pects for money -making in thi- • branch of the live -stock industry.

The far famed Dorking, which Cae- sar bore from Rome to England 55 B. 0„ has been knocked to splinters by the big pink skinned Orpington, England's now most popular chicken. England has many varieties, both in rose and single comb, but so far the American Poultry association has admitted but three to the standard— S. C. White, S. 0. Buff and S. U. Black, This breed, originated by the late William Cook at Orpington, England, Photo by C. M. Barnitz. MACK OItPINOTON COOK DIRD. is the most popular thus far originat- ed on English soil and has as large fol- lowing in this country. All the standard varieties are alike in weight and shape, and the Blacks have many friends. A look at the cuts tells why. They are a fowl to be proud of, pretty for show and bully for eggs and meat. To make the Black Orpington a Black Minorca male was mated to Week sport pullets 11'0111 Barred Plym- outh Rocks. Pullets of this cross were then bred to a Black Langsban cock with clean legs. This was a fine combination for eggs and meat, size and beauty, and it was found that the young matured from a mouth to six weeks earlier than the chicks of the original breeds bred stra 1 g b t. To get the Blacks to their present perfection was a tedious task, Mr, Cook persevering for seventeen years before be reached his ideal. He made both rose and single comb' from this combination. The Black Orpington is of remarka- ble vitality. It is large, compact, Photo by C. M. Barnitz. • BLACK ORPINGTON REM Pitimp, big breasted, and as a general purpose fowl for fine grained meat and big eggs it Is hard to beat. It should be low in stature, have rich, glossy, black plumage; rod comb, face, wattles, enr lobes; dark eyes, black shanks, and ,the soles of its feet should be pinkish white. As a market fowl it is rather large for the common call and does not have the butter colored skin and trilbys so popular with American market buyers. 'ORPINGTON STANDARb WEIGHTS. Pounds. Pounds.

WINGHAM BRANCH: N. EVANS, Manager. Weight And Measure. When we watch a dry goods man measuring material with his yard- stick, we little realize with what great tare the State watches over the stand- ard on which that stick is based. For twenty years the standard yard mea- snre and the standard pound weight have been sealed up in a vault In the Palace of Westminster, and the time for examining them IS almost due. The security of commerce depends largely' upon the accuracy of these measures. Land in cities is so enor. ,aaaaallaamagtamgm.a.141111411144111% iuously valuable that surveyors mut make measurements of the most per. feet minuteness, and they could not do this unless their measuring ire, atrumenta were strictly correct, The standard yard measure has already been lost once—when the 1101380s r.f Parliament were burnt Co vn in 1831 Nine years later a special commission of scientists was appointed to make another measure. It took them eleven !years to complete their work. Over 200,000 ealculations and tests were made before the standard could be completed. And then, years after the work was completed, and the new measure was reactor.
