Finlayson has passed: we've lost a friend; "He was a -man to all the country dear," Lieed long. was loved -today 'he is not here. Few men possess such gifts of head and heart; Few men there are so generous to impart Their knowledge' to a soul in sore distress - John gave, and gladly gave in kind- liness. A draftsman -how he loved to work with tools: H's parchment paper, pencil, com- pass, rules; He knew the answer to the work- ingman: The Golden Rule was - woven through his plan. The Church will miss him -yes, he served so well, Gave time and treasure as the re- cords tell; And every morning, and again at night, He took "The Book" to end the day aright. To those of us wifo knew him' year on year, We pac-e today and drop a silent tear; And pay our tr:bute with:.a flatter- ing pen To one who meant so much to other men. And now to those who are his very own, Who feel the loss, who feel so much alone. His word would be, and with his word a smile: "No need for sorrow -wait life's little while." JOHN BEATTIE Bill: "What kind of dress dirt she wear to the party last night?" Will: "I can't remember. I think it was checked." Bill: "You don't say. Must have been quite a party," Feature of the Goderich Old Horne Week open - trig ceremonies was the presentation of the Queen's medal for meritorious marine service to aert MacDonald, Goderich, by Andrew Y. Mcleeeter M,P. for Huron -Perth. Mr. MacDonald bad over 35 year's service to his credit. Close to 5,009. persons crowded into Court House Park to watch the events, signalling the start of Goderich's 126th birthday celebrations, which ended Thurgday, (Continued from Page -2) 'Me young stock should 'therefore be raised on an area isolated from the pens of older birds, preferably on ground not ranged by chickens for several years, since some of the commonest diseases of poultry are passed along from the old birds to the young stock. The isolated area should be a large enough piece of land that rotation of pastures can be employ- ed. For instance, if a field were divided in quarters, it is a simple matter to plan a rotation whereby the flock is moved each successive year onto a. clean alfalfa pasture. This allows three years for each field to become clean before again' having poultry on it. There are various kinds of rotations. At fhe Kapuskas•ing Experimental Station a four-year rotation of one year of oats and three years of alfalfa and clover, has given satisfactory re- sults. Too much emphasis cannot be placed upon the value of good clean pasture in the poultry rearing and feeding program. It is a known fact that from 10 to 20 per cent of a growing bird's feed re- quirements from ten weeks of age to maturity, may be saved where good range is available. There- fore, pastures should he kept short, lush, and leafy so as to supply a feed of high nutritional value. Since it is the tender new growth that is most appetizing and makes the most nutritious pastures, the mower should be run over the range to keep the green feed ten- der whenever the growth becomes too coarse and high. The sunshine also helps to keep the chickens healthy and promotes the proper development of bones. The feed and watering troughs should be moved every few days for a distance of at least 15 feet so as to reduce the risk of contam- ination of the ground around them.

This practice will im- prove the general sanitation and more completely utilize the pasture crop. Another factor of immense prac- tical importance relates to the ov- ercrowding of the chicks on range, which t h increases mortality. An : ere of alfalfa range will accommodate 400 birds, Growing chicks which have access to a clean range will develop into strong and healthy birds at lower feed costs, EGMONDVILLE Mr..and Mrs. William Scot,hmer have returned from Guelph and Whitefish Falls.
