Muskrat Pelts In Demand Muskrat pelts will likely bring a higher price this spring than they have for the past three or four years. The low prices paid the past several years have discouraged trappers to the point where some have quit trapping and others not putting full effort into their work. Supply and demand govern the prices and with depleted stock in some areas there is a fair demand for muskrat hides. The supply is limited in some of our local marshes due to the low water level and zero temp• eratures that we have been ex- periencing the past few months. This causes severe winter kills and is one of the reasons that the Department of Lands and Forests introduced a fall and winter season for muskrats, from Nov, 1, 1962 to April 15, 1963, so that some of the popu- lation could be harvested rath- er than have them die and be wasted. The Game and Fisheries Act states that a farmer or his sons residing upon his lands may without a licence hunt or trap Personal Notes —Mrs. Arthur McDonald of Teeswater, Mrs. Laura Gal- braith, Miss Marian Simpson, Miss Cora Gannett, Mrs. James Campbell and Mrs. Clarence Walters were in London on Sat- urday and attended the London Little Theatre production, "The Vigil" . —Mrs. William King visited with her son-in-law and daugh- ter, Mr. and Mrs. Ross Forbeck and Linda, in Owen Sound over the week -end. —Mrs. Dora Houle and Mr. Ronald Houle of Toronto spent the week -end with Mr. and Mrs. James Sell. --Mr. and Mrs, Roy Morgan spent Sunday in London with his brother, Mr. and Mrs. Reid Morgan. —Mr. and Mrs. L.

These forms may be obtained by writing to the local Conser- vation Officer. Any farm lad who has a bunch of traps hang- ing in the driving shed and has a pond, stream or river on his property may well pick up a few extra dollars by trapping this valuable little fur -bearer. Overheard in a restaurant: When we moved I had to warn my wife about the telephone company. I told her: "They'll ask you where you want the green phone, where you'd like to have the yellow phone and what colors you choose for the Princess phones in all rhe bed- rooms." I told her to be firm. Tell that sweet -voiced sales- lady you need one phone in the kitchen and one in the bed- room, and that's all.

You'll come back smiling on the money you saved going. The Volkswagen averages 38 miles to a gallon of gas. In fact we've heard a few owners claim 50 mpg. (They're either very good drivers, or a little weak at mathematics,) The Volkswagen is small change in other departments too. For a start, the oil never needs topping between changes. And even when it is time for a change, two and one-fifth quarts will do it. When it comes to the cooling system, your expenses come to zero. The radiator can't boil over or spring leaks or freeze up because there is no radiator. We cool our car with air instead of water. Ona long trip your thoughts may turn to service and re- placement parts. Don't worry. You can be miles from nowhere and still find VW service. {We have 346 dealers right across Canada.) As matter of fact, why not test drive a Volkswagen at your nearest dealer now? And since it only costs him a couple, of pennies, feel free to head for the city limits. ININGHAM BODY SHOP P.
