Wednesday, Nov. 9, 1938. THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE Massey- Harris Company Reduces Prices The Massey - Harris Company, through its vice-president and gener- al manager, J. S. Duncan, announces price reductions on its line of farm equipment. "The Company is pleased to announce." states the message, substantial list price reductions on tractors and general farm machinery, effective Nobember 1, 1938." "The reductions arc the result," says Mr. Duncan, ''of a desire on the part of the company to share with its customers the benefits of economies effected, together with the savinys resulting from the present slight decreases in prices of raw materials." Reductions on tractors range as high as $84, and on grain binders with enclosed gears the reductions range up to $9.75, and on the open gear binder up to $30. Plows show a re- duction up to $7, and grain drills up to $8, according to size. Style experts say women over forty should wear eofter colors. That's very hard as some of them feel then it's time to turn on a little added dazzlement. They're All The Same Germany is Nazi, Italy is Fa.scist, Russia and Mexico are Communistic. All are different but throw them all together and they are pretty much the same. Germany and Italy banded together in Spain against Russia, not so much because their ideals are different, but that they would like to run things instead of Russia. A win for the Revolutionists in Spain would not mean peace. Rather it would only commence an argument beween Italy and Germany as to which country was to do the dictating. Gei-many is jealous of Britaiit's power; so is Italy. If Britain could be weakened, Germany would have more leeway in Europe. Italy would have more control in the MediteiTan- i-an. Hence the joining of the forces to make Spain Nazi or Fascist. The two big deterrents to German and Italian predominance yet remain, the Suez Canal and Gibralter. If Germ- any and Italy could but secure these they could still further dictate to Europe and to the world.

The province has been divided into four sections and stallion owners are requested to make appli- cation at once to their local Agri- cultural Representatives who are ar- ranging routes in their counties. Regular inspection is also provided at Ottawa, the Royal and Guelph Winter Fairs. It is interesting to note that three hundred and fifty-two of the stallions enrolled carry premium certificates whereby they qualify for an annual grant from both Federal and Pro- vincial Departments of Agricultural the amount of which will vary accord- ing to the number of in-foal mares left by the service of the stallion, and according to the form of premium certificate the stallion carries. In Des Moines, la., a womens club held a "crazy hat contest." It was the old story, the winner didn't know she was playing.

McDermid, Ceylon. 9pl Percheron Stallions Outnumber Clydes Horse breeding in Ontario has been more active in 1938 than in any sea- son since 1920, according to figures just released by the Stallion Enrol- ment Board of Ontario. Another in- teresting "feature of the report is that for the first time in the history of the province the number of Perch- eron Stallions offered for public ser- vice exceeds Clydesdales. Percheron stallions total 640 and Clydes 601. Middlesex County shows the great- est number of stallions enrolled with an even hundred divided as follows: forty-eight Percherons, thirty-four Clydes, four Belgians, eight Stand- ards, six Thoroughbi'eds and one Arab. Dr. W. J. Stevenson of London owns the only Arab stallion is Ontario, the report discloses. Huron County is second in numbers with seventy- two, Bruce is third with sixty-six, followed by Perth and Grey Counties with sixty-two each. The gradual upswing in horse breeding in Ontario can be seen in the increase of the number of stal- lions enrolled. In 1932 the enrolment total was 1013 with 1166 in 1933, TELEPHONE TALKS IN THE WATSON FAMILY "We're ao glad you're feeling better. Mother t** That LONG DISTANCE Habit is Catching!
