Me. T. H. Benson of Tor-
onto, organizer for Egg Circle work,
and Mr. N. W.. Trewartha, manager
of the Gunn Langlois Co,
Mr. S. B. Stothers, district rep
-resentative, introduced the speakers,
explaining that while the poultry bus-
iness of Huron county compared very
favorably with that of most counties,
being h
n in a great
much better
than
might
manYit was.thought that it
be improved. He said he had been
trying 1•o get Mr. "Elford for some
time and was very glad indeed' to be
able to procure him for this meeting.
Mr. Elford, on rising, expressed his
pleasure at being present. Ile said
there was no other place_ he would
rather come; to than Clinton, except,
Perhaps, Hoimesville; that he was
glad to see so many people he knew;
adding, "I think I could call nearly
everybody here by name, by their first
names anyway." He went on to say.
that while he had travelled about :a-
good.deal he had come to the con-
clusion that there were no better
people anywhere than the folk of this
community and in some places he'd
met -much worse. He continued: "I
do not say this because I'm Irish, for,
as you know, I'm, not. I say it "be-
cause I know the sort of people you
are and it is my honest conviction."
Mr. Efford then went on to say
that, file poultry business was not
what ft hacl been twenty-five year's
ago. TIe intimated that poultry keep-
ing wasn't considered a "man's job,"
then but that time had worked
changes. Noveit was coming into its
own. He said , he had just come
from a trip through the westand- he
was convinced that there was no bet-
terplaee.for the poultry business than
Ontario. California, which was of-
ten heard spoken of as an ideal place.
for 'poultry raising, he said wasn't
to be compared with Ontario and
there was no better part than in
Western Ontario.

• To get eggs now, when they were
high-priced, Mr, Trewartha said was
the aim of poultrymen. This was
only possible with early pullets. He
said, also, that. there was always a
demand for dressed poultry and if it
was on the market' in the late summer
or early ;autumn it had no "competi-
tion from the west, as was the case
later. He said that when his com-
pany started first there was much un-
finished stock sent in but that now it
was different. Many of the produc-
ers were finishing it • themselves.
Some of it was not just perfect but
it was • improving. ' He said - they
were paying a difference of from `2c
to 5e for finished poultry but would
like to be able to pay from 7e to 8e
difference. He thought the - egg -
grading regulation was an excellent
thing for both producer and consumer
and. there was a market for any
quantity of good eggs. He .told the
story of one woman, not a Goderich
township woman, he said, who sold
a driver some eggs -at a flat rate one
day, although she had been having
them graded. The' driver was sus-
picious and kept them by themselves'
and had them candled separately. It
was found that in a six -dozen lot
there •were sixteen eggs almost hat-
