$500 For Best 'Slogan
The 'World's Grain Shdw slogan
contest is now in full swing. What
is 'a slogan? The, dictionary tells us
that it is a Gaelic word, the war cry
or the gathering cry of the old High-
land clans. In our day, however, it
has' conte to mean a sort of motto.
"Strike while the iron is hot" , or,
"Small profits' and quick returns" are
both examples of present-day slogans.
At any rate, the management of the

ference' offers a prize of $500 cash for. 11110111111111111116.

Overseas Apple Market
According to Andrew Fulton, over-
seas representative of the Ontario
Fruit Growers Association, there still
continues a, good demand for bright-
colored dessert fruit 00 the British.
market. This is attributed partly to
the below -normal shipments of trans-
atlantic fruit. During the week on
whit]) the most recent: report was
based, the Ontario apples topped all
others in price, Mcint.oshes selling
for $8.60, Mr, Fulton states that all
attractively colored dessert apples
will bring good prices on the British
st
market at this time while the green
cooking <topktt are more or less a
drug on ,the market, Some progress
wailing the bulk will be 'fed to live
stock. As a result fc edeir cattle are
at a premium. A'Ianels and turnips
have in most parts of the province
tnrned out successfully :for the former.'"
and a failure in.; the latter. Live stock
generally seems to'bc shaping up well
and farmers..lhrougliout the province
have already commenced their winter
feeding. Many Middlesex fanners aro
now in the West contemplating the
purchase of feeding cattle,' The re-
port is of general torre'for the )entire
province, conditions apparently 'being
the same all over.
