The calves were divided into groups of winter bull calves, spring bull calves, winter heifer calves and spring heifer calves. The winter calves were fed 15'0' days part on raw and another similiar group on pasteurized milk- The spring calves were fed similiar- ly for 120' days. Thmilk was.pasteurized by heat­ ing to 145-150 degrees F. and held one half hour and fed at the rate of one pound per 10 pounds' of live- weight up to a maximum of 15 pounds. After the third week the calves had access to good hay and a grain mixture of corn, oats, oilcake and bran.

Coom'be at a 36'4-lb. calf in 150 days. |Those ’ fed on pasteurized milk per cent. The spring bull calves ■per cent, on raw milk mates on pasteurized gained 244 in the same period. This shows that raw milk gives much .better growth than pasteurized, The heifer calves on raw milk raced ahead of those on pasteurized milk. All calves on raw milk had much better coats than the calves on pas­ teurized milk. •Disease was much more prevalent among the calves fed on pasteurized milk than among those on raw. The pasteurizing kills some of the vitamins or changes the forms of some of the mineral compounds so that they are indigestible thus causing lessened food value. The benefits from .pasteruized milk are doubtful. “Although many cities' gained 330 gained 372 while their ' one time Methodist minister at Ges- to, later married to John T. Miners, 'Exeter;.

This is a common practice in London. Consumers Thrive raw milk was- as dangerous asIf many would have us believe how is it that the country peoiple thrive upon it? It is not mifk but the lack of it that leaves people open to di­ sease just as in the calves and if it is pasteurized it is lowered in value. As to unpasteurized milk carrying disease often this idea is stretched, to the .breaking point. For instance how could we .prove infantile para­ lysis could be spread in the milk when none of the authorities, know what causes it, have never discov­ ered any germ and do not know how it is spread. The desire for pasteruization is similiar to the desire for all other regulations such as grading, etc. It makes it possible to control the out­ lets .for the farmers* products so LEAVES $62,5215 ESTATE Despatch from Goderich says: “The will of Elizabeth Carling, spin- ister, of Exeter, who died in London filed for probate here, disposes of an estate of $'62,>525.29, chiefly in bank stocks, mortgages, and inter­ est in the Isaac Carling, Florence Mace and Isaac 'Carling Sr., estates.

The men had just loaded the hand truck and bale of bags on the ele­ vator at the .ground floor, sending the elfivatoi* up one floor, while they themselves walked upstairs. They were engaged in removing the hand truck and its load and had it part­ ly off when something snapped, pre­ cipitating the men below. the ground. McCormick, who lives on the 14th concession was splitting wood in the woodshed at the time of the baize and was trapped there. He had to break open a nailed-up door with a stick of cordwood to make his es­ cape. Later he collapsed from shock as he was throwing water through an inside window onto the flames in the shed and it was thought he had been lost in the fire until he was found lying on the floor of the adjoining bathroom and carried to safety. Mrs. McCormick and her daughter Mary who was married on Saturday to John Hall, of Mdunt Carmel, were in the house preparing for a shower for the bride-elect to be held at the home, They, with a foster son, Charles Burleigh, were able to es­ cape without difficulty.

Constantly prevailing high winds are blamed for the disastrous sea­ son, for many hundreds of dollars worth of nets have been riddled, torn and rendered useless by the heavy seas. The usual lucrative grounds of Kettle .point this fall yielded little but moss and have driven Bayfield fishermen to Goderich with little improvement. {Likewise the productive shoals off Point Clark, Kingsbridge and Kintail, have failed Goderich fish­ erman. They have tried shallow and deep water with no better re­ sults. “Commercial fishing off this har­ bour is about done unless something drastic is done,’’ was the lament of an oldtimer. “Either there are fish, they are too foxy for us, or will have to change our tactics."

At the same time the jury recommended that Rennie’s permit be suspended for three years. The jury took one hour and five minutes to reach a verdict. •The verdict is as follows: “That the said Joseph Ambrose Murphy came to his death from head injur­ ies caused by being thrown to .pavement on highway 8, when buggy in which he was driving struck in the rear hy a motor driven by Ross Rennie.
