ORILLTA LUCKY AGAIN
-Once more Orillia, is lucky. .When.
it was found that the Ontario Gov-
ernment's radio broadcasting station
could not with advantage be placed at
Guelph, but must be situated farther
north, Orillia at oncebecame the log-
ical ltication. Thus, without any
stove on the part of the town itself,
the long' cherished ambition to have a
broadcasting station here is to be
gratified. Thus the air fault which
for long made it difficult for Orilliens
to hear Toronto broadcasting stations
has turned out to the town's advan-
tage,
Once the station is erected, Qr•ill]a,
will doubtless be ready to help itt es-
tablishing its fame, by providing
occasional programmes of a high
order. The town -is fortunate enough

POULTRY CULLING
•
Huron County' enjoys the reputa-
tion of being the second largest poul-
try producing county in the Province.
This is a very, --pleasing fact when we mixed once again with the rest of the
consider that after all has been said flock. •
_
to the contrary, the good hen is one of
the best assets on the farm.
The poultry populatioit_Itas increas-.
eel rapidly during the past few years,
This increase has been due mainly to
the greater use of eggs b.lr the house-
wives in Canada. A jump from six-
teen (16) dozen eggs per capita per
year a few years ago to twenty-eight
(28) dozen eggs per Capita last year
is a remarkable condition and can be
credited almost entirely to one or two
reasons. Producers have learned bet-
ter the art of production and con-
sumers by being able to buy graded
eggs km* what they are getting.
This year would seem to indicate
peak production of poultry and poul-
'try products. Naturally, prices ford
some of these things will not le so
good.. Eggs have remained good but
prices for certain classes of fowl and
chickens are. not tip to previous years'
standards. Nevertheless, producers
will do well 'to sell surplus stock early
if possible as feed costs stoney and
the advance in plaice -is not liitely to
offset it.
Poultry raisers should begin at once
to cull out the non -layers. This is the
season to get rid of the old hens, the
hens that have laid' but are now on
strike and thehens that never .hurt
themselves laying and are not liable
lb break any records in the future.
Poultry culling as• it applies to hens,
is a. simple art' that all producers
Should master. Just as milli produc-
tion is indicated by certain charact-
eristics in a dairy cow so is egg pro-
duction expressed by easily identified
conditions in the lien,
Last year some 22,000 hens were
NORTH HURON BY-ELECTION
SEPT 12th. -
Writs were dispatched Thursday
for the federal by-election in North
Huron, where since last January the
seat has been vacant.
Nominations were fixed for Sep-
tember 5 and polling for September
12.
There are four candidates—Liberal
Progressive Independent and Con-
servative the latter having chosen
George Spotton of Wingham at their
convention held on Tuesday. The late
member, J. WW. Ring, was a Progres-
sive, but one who almost invariably
supported the present Government.
Opposed only by William Mc-
Quillan, of Wawanosh, for noniinat
ion, after a field of seven had with-
drawn their' names, Mr. Spotton se-
cured 157 votes to 78 2pr his opponent.
Mayor MaeEwan, of Goderich, consid;,
eked a strong passibility tor nomin-
ation, was among those to withdraw
their names. The nomination of Mr.
Spotton was made unanimous on the
motion of Mr. MacQuillan, who, to-
gether with the five nominees, pro-
mised their wholehearted support to
the candidate. Those nominated in-
cluded. Mayor 14IacEwan; Dr. E. C.
Weir, Auburn; E. R. Wigle, ex-M.L.A,
Goderieh; ex -Warden J. W. McKibben,
Wingham; Richard Proctor, West
Wawanosh.
The amalgamation of the provincial
and federal Conservative associations
in North :Huron was made effective
at this convention, perhaps an augury
of success
and greater
unitY i the
coming battle. The motion of J. W-
McKibbon, seconded by Dudley Hol-
mes,
olmes, jr., to this effect, was carried
without discussion, the president,
Peter Scott, having recommended this
cbangeto the convention,
Nominations •of officers for this
general North -Huron Liberal -Conser-
vative Association were then elected,
as follows, amid the greatest enthus-
iasm: Honorary president, Peter
Scott, who for many yearn has been
president of the federal association;
president, Richard Proctor, of Bel -
grave; first vice-president, Dr. James
Armstrong; second vice-president,
Mrs. Fred Taylor; third vice-presi-
dent, A. J. Goldthrope; secretary, J.
H. A. MacEwan; treasurer, .7. W. Mc-
Kibben.. The executive of the old as-
sociation was elected en bloc, .on the
suggestion of • Mr. - Spotton, who
thought they should remain in office
until they were re-elected for office
on the principle of selection now in
use in Goderich and other parts of the
riding.
