Why do statesmen read the Weekly
Sun of Toronto? Because it is a
pane; with a reputation that is an-
queetioned. It is the Farmers' busi-
nese paper, and is watching farmers'
interests all the time. Aside, even
from its market reports which are ac-
knowledged to be the best in the
Dominion, it is a paper ,of weight
You should have it come to your
hame every .week: All .through he
long winter nights it will furnisha
wealth of interesting reading material
ai a thoroughly reliable character.
Thi e paper has special clubbing Ar-
rangements with The Sum. Let us
have your renewal and add the Sun
to your list of papers for 1915.

impassible of management unless un-

wry storm period will develop and
ran its course on and toucbing the

look for this period is that rain, turn -
t' heavy sleet and tam, will pass'
croft, west to east, and that cloudy
mercurial, cold weather will continue
foe several days after the passage of
the star/ries 'Study your barometer
closely in con; ection with every
