MARKET FOR BARLEY IN BACON AND BEEF SKATING AT PROTON STATION Outdoor skating rink is now ready at Proton Station, across from R. J. McNulty's barber shop. Skating ev- ery Monday, Wednesday and Saturday evening. Admission 10c and 5c. There is practically no limit to the production of barley in Canada and recent tests show that it produces better bacon and beef tlian any other grain. It is proving fully the equal of corn when fed with suitable sup- plements in the form of home-grown leguminous roughages. Barley can be used in almost any proportion ot the grain ration up to one hundred per cent. As a hog feed it develops an entirely satisfactory class of bacon, which is more thas can be said for corn fed in equal proportions, and as a feed for beef cattle barley is un- doubtedly one of the best of our Can- adian-grown coarse grains. The in- creased use of barley and other coarse grains at their present low levels will make for much better quality in the beef being marketed, and this, in turn, will help create a demand for more beef.

VICTORIA CORNERS News is acaixe, some sickness and much bad weather makes us feel like staying in close quarters like the bear does. I guess he'd see his shadow on Saturday if he were up in time and its too bad he had to miss this nice day, (Mon.). Its a pet for 19a5. Sometimes when we are at home and know the new.s we feel that the local papers do not mean so much, but we think if we'd all help a bit we would enjoy them better. You know so«iething we have put part of our- .selves in we enjoy the outcome so much better. But here is a boost for local paper. Lately there came to our notice a lady from these parts who lives in Toronto came home from an appointment with her dentist one day recently and in a few moments re- laxaton picked up the Dundalk Herald and noticed the announcement ol the same dentist's wedding. As he was not a local boy she wa.s rather surprised and thought if she wanted Toronto news she's better take the Dundalk Herald. Hope the Editor will not consider this too much like advertising to print it. Miss Hazel Hodg^ns who is at Mr. J. Best's was not very well last week. Her mother was with her for a couple of days. Mrs. Jas. Best is about the same. Mr. and Mrs. Earl Walton and Tom- my of Hopeville visited at Will Ache- son .

PRICEVILLE PROTON STATION The new open air skating rink was announced ready for use last Saturday afternoon and was opened by a hockey game amongst the local puck chasers and skating at night. Messi-s. Geoi-ge Moore and Robert -McNalty have work, ed diligently for a month or more to make .skating ice on bare ground but it has proved to be a rather discour- aging undertaking and although it is not yet what they would like it to oe they are continuing to flood it. (We hope they may receive some profi* for their labor. The Proton Bears find thenselves sorely in need of practice for they were defeated in a score of 4 â€" 2 by the Flesherton semi Pro. team on the Flesherton rink on Thursday night of Ifwt veiic. The Proton Junitor Hockey team travelled acroM to Swinton Park for a game with the Park Bcrubj but th« latt«r came out bset by a 2 â€" I score nothing dauntej they we.:t back a^iu to the Swinton Park ice and met â-  Dromore team and suffered a second defeated but if the Proton >. â- ; ; could only have ice and caoching they will held their own, i\ number arounl oor village are under the doctor's care.

"That," excaimed the solicitor, â- 'would cei-tainly ruin your case." "Well, I'll go on with it anyway said sullivan after some deep thought To the .solicitor's great surp.rise he won the case. "Tell me," he asked afterwax-ds. "did you send that brace of birds to the judge?" I did," smiled Sullivan proudly, but I sent them in Martin's name."
