According to the Canadian Standards, lumber used for making these boxes must be a sound, clear, dry quality of soft wood planed smooth on both sides free from knots, and square., straight -edge stock but not tongued or grooved. When boxes are made up, there are five essential points; (1) each side and end must be in one piece and be square cut, (2) tops and bottoms must be flush with and fit flush over both sides. (3) an allowance must be made for a small space, of not more than a sixteenth of an inch, between the boards on top and bottom of the box to assist quick sharp freezing when placed in storage. (4), the bottoms and tops should be in at least three pieces, and (5) wide boards should' be used as outside boards in both tops and bottoms. The nails used should only be long enough and strong enough to give the neces- sary srrength, so that the weight of poultry may be shipped in safety. In packing, strict observance should be paid to the allowance variation in weight in birds packed in the same box—squab and broiling chickens not over 114 pound per bird; all other chickens and fowl not over 112 lb.; tnrkeys and geese not more than 3 lbs. It is. recomenended that this in- dividual variation \of turkeys and geese be limited to two pounds. The weight variation for ducks packed in the same box is one pound per bird.

In Canada there is nother incentive. Canadians have an dvantage over some other countries n that they have at their disposal a fine selection of many foods, which Robbery at Elora Burglars made attempts to break into three places of business on El- ora's main street, but their only suc- cess came when they drilled holes in, the front door of Murray's drug store to release the lock and gain an ent- rance.

Bruce Comity May Stop Sending Patients to Hospitals • The increasing cast of indigent pa- tients in hospitals to the County of Bruce, has aroused the attention of the Cotinty Council and a special committee composed of Reeve Tol- mie, of Southampton; Ewart, of Cites - ley, and togie, of Paisley, was ap- pointed to investigate. The accounts for last year of over $5,700 tOTH prise tinder the mark "Canada Approved" are .guaranteed by the Government free from disease. In the case of Gov- ernment graded beef, a step further has been taken. In 'addition to the "Canada Approved" mark, there is a Government mark or brand of qual- ity in the form of ribbon-like marks running lengthwise of the carcass. A section of this mark appears on every individual cut, and thus the purchaser is assured of receiving the quality paid for. The red brand marks the best quality, entitled "Choice," and the se- cond quality called "Good" is branded in blue. The gradual spread of this knowledge in one way accounts for the steady increase in • the sales of Canadian branded beef. • The total sales ,during the month of August, 1935, amounted to 3,509,913 pounds, bringing the • total • far the eight months of the year to 27,823,692 lbs., or approximately 640,000 pounds more than in the corresponding period of 1934; 6, 848,527 pounds more than in 1933; 13,529,389 pounds more than in 1932, and 15,950,028 pounds more than in 1931 when the system was initiat- ed. • ON TRIAL IN FATHER SLAYING oneemo••••••• Lois Elaine Zachary, Hollywood !film extra and artists' model, shown during her trial on the charge of slay- ing her father, Roy R.
