I just said Nor- man Deshane, that's all, and that's all you need--shut out, "yes" they couldn't even score in the last period with four men up; although they tried hard enough. The game started when Jack Sleightholm took the puck at the face off and broke through the Beaverton forwards to the defence, made a nice shot on the net but didn't score. The first goal was scored when C. Sleightholm passed the puck to Miller on left wing, who went in behind the Beaverton defence and shot on the net, the goalie stopped it, then lost track of it, but Miller didn't. He saw it laying on the ice right in front of the net and skated in fast, shoved the puck in the net. Making Port one up. The second goal scored for Port was by E. Sleightholm. Taking the puck down to the net and finding himself blocked on one side went round be- hind the net to the other side and slammed it in the corner of the net and the period ended, 2 to 0 in favour of Port. In the second period, Beaverton tried hard to get the lead that Port had. But every time a shot reached the net Deshane was right there to stop it. If it didn't reach the net, why the Port boys soon cleared it. Jack Sleightholm scored the next goal for Port when he got right through the Beaverton defence, shot on the net and in it went, making the score 3-0. The fourth goal was scored when Miller went into the corner, shot the puck out to the front of the net, and Dowson on right wing, took the pass, shot, and scored. The third period ended with a score of 4-0 in favour of Port. The last period certainly kept Port players busy. Beaverton were so de- termined to get a goal they were playing four men up, leaving only one man to guard their defence. But as hard as they tried, they didn't sue- ceed and MacDonald with E. Sleight- holm, broke away, MacDonald passed to Sleightholm who sent a shot into one corner of the net, making the score 5 to 0 in favour of Port Perry. The game didn't last much longer. This makes the third game to Port's credit and we hope they will win the rest with a good margin. Wes eostiptioning. avert the loss of va : papers : up in & drawer in your office or home.

Heaton recent- ly issued a warning to farmers that they should exercise greater care in harvesting and storing their crops if they hope to avoid losses through spontaneous combustion. At the close of the inquiry into Wentworth County barn fires, he suggested that farmers revert to the old-time custom of using ye | ERNE EREE salt in curing crops. Salt, he pointed out, aided greatly in preventing fires. He also advocated that fire extin- guishers be carried on threshing ma- chines. Static electricity in the blow- er of the thresher, which can be over- come by grounding wires, was the cause of at least one fire in Went- worth. : i POTATOES FOR FEED The feeding of potatoes to live stock provides a very satisfactory outlet for the lower grades of the crop. Second- grade potatoes may be used as feed for hogs and also in limited amounts for cattle, sheep and horses as a sub- stitute for grain. For pigs the po- tatoes should be boiled, mixed with the grain and fed with other concen- trates. A protein supplement needs to be fed with this. Experiments in- dicate that it takes about 420 pounds of potatoes, fed after cooking, to equal 100 pounds of corn or barley. For the best results in swine feeding the proportion of potatoes in the ra- tion should not be greater than four pounds to one of concentrates. Po- tatoes may furnish half of the dry matter in the ration for cattle and sheep and - one-fourth for horses. Dairy cows should not receive more than about 86 pounds per day as larger amounts may impair the qual- ity of butter produced. For fattening sheep from two to three pounds daily should be fed with the grain, etl PPP errs THE COLOR CRAZE A buyer of a large drapery estab- 'lishment went into a cafe, sat down at a table, and along came a waitress.
