EMPIRE TRADE/ is Canada’s Road to Prosperity development of/trade within the Empire is the logical solution of the enormous problem involved; and the enthusiastic manner in which the King-Dunninp Budget has been received throughout the Empire ensures Canada a most favourable position at th# Imperial Conference for the interchange of products.

Since the war period, new tariff barriers have been created by many countries, restricting the outlets for Canadian products and necessitating new trade arrangements.

Budget, which has ^indicated the path along which Canada must proceed to ensure a continuation of her com­ mercial prosperity. The prompt LOWER COST OF LI electorate 28th, is a dairy eq Budgets eluting the past nine years of Liberal Administration have lowered tariffs on many commodities and implements of production; these reductions have automatically lowered living costs to the Canadian public.

Lice and Mites No matter how carefully the hen house has been cleaned and disin­ fected, lice and mites will put in their appearance before the summer is over. t, They ■are a source of great annoyance to tlie birds and may be­ come so bad as to practically drive the flock out of the building. A good dust bath for the nens or dusting sodium fluroride into their feathers will help get rid of the vermin from the bodies, but there are always some cracks around the walls and roosts where the vermin hide during the day and come out to feed on the birds dfiring the night. Coal oil -has been used effectively in destroying the pests on the roosts, and a nico-' tine preparation painted, on the; roosts in the evening will destroy the vermin on both roosts and birds. The fumes permeating1 through the feathers do theiy work. QJifr Sxrier WitttrM-Aibunxal* Published every Thursday morniK|k at Exeter, Ontario Canadian.

Fruit Prospects Excellent Lincoln county, the leading ten­ der fruit section of Ontario, reports one of the best crops of all kinds of fruit in recent years. Sweet and sour cherries are excxellent, but the prices have been somewhat low. There was also a good showing of early vegetables. From the apple sections reports indicate .that the crop will be considerably {smjaller than a year ago. Or-chards which have taken advantage of the spray service are coming, on exceptionally well, but in other orchards sciah is making its appearance. There will be a considerable increase in the size of apples this year. Potato sec­ tions report an outlook for more than the average yield of potatoes this year and early potatoes are now finding their way to market.

Sheep Dipping' Pays Wellington County now has 44 Community Sheep dipping Tanks. Six now tanks have been built this spring, and most of the dipping has been completed. Last year 9065 sheep were dipped in 3 8 tanks but this year the number will exceed 10,- 000 or about one third of the sheep and lambs, in the county. The cost is between three and four cents per head but those who dip regularly estimate that is is worth 81.00 per year per head to dip sheep and the lambs. Thus the tanks. In. Welling­ ton County can be figured to be worth about $10-000 to the sheep raisers this year. So satisfactory have been the results that, it is th© aim of the Live Stock Improvement Association to make Silieep dipping compulsory in this county in the course of a couple of years, as it is in Great Britain. It is scarcely hu­ man to leave whole flocks of ljelp- less iambs covered with large hungry blood-sucking ticks, to say nothing about poor economy. 950 sheep were dipped in two tanks, last week which is about the record for thf< county.
