V/ednesday, Jan. 25, 1939. THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE Live Stock Report (By Dunn & Levack. Toronto) On Monday the cattle market open- ed with u strong demand for choice weighty steers for export trade to the United States. Choice butcher steers were in good demand while heifers were slow of sale at about l.'ic lower. The bull trade was .strong, while cows were a shad© easier. Choice weighty steers sold mostly at from 7.25 to 7.75; fair to good from 0.50 to 7.00; common and med- ium 5.75 to 6.25. In the butcher sec- tion choice steers and heifers brought from C.25 to C.75; fair to good from 5.75 to 6.25; common and medium 5.00 to 5.50. Choice baby beeves sold readily at from 8.50 to 9.50 with those of medium quality from 6.00 to 8.00. Choice butcher cows sold at from 4.25 to 4.50 with a few top heifery cows at 5.OO; fair to good from 3.75 to 4.25; common to medium 3.O0 to 3.50; canners and cutters 2.50 t(s2-00. Good heavy bulls were in good demand at from 4.75 to 5.00; common light kind 3.75 to 4.26. In the small meats the lamb trade opened slow but prices held steady, choice lambs selling at 8.50, with oth- ers at lower prices according to qual- ity. Choice butcher sheep brought from 4.50 to 5.50. The calf market held strong choice from 10.00 to IO.6O with 8ome fancy calves at 11.00; fair to good from 9.00 to 10.00; common to- medium 6.00 to 8.00. The hog market showed consider- able .-itrength on Monday and higher prices were made, truck deliveries selling at 9.50. Supplies will be the determining factor in what the future prices will be. The general feeling on the market is firm W.M.S. Meeting The January meeting of the W.- M.S. was held Thursday evening at the home of Mrs. F. Duncan with a good itttendance of members and vis- itors. Mrs. J. Heard was in charge of the worship period. Scripture passages were read by Mi's. Morgan, Mrs. Inkster, Mrs. McMillan and Miss K. McMillan. Prayer was offered by Mrs. H. Down, Mr.s Cargoe and Mrs. McKee. A duet was given by Mrs. E. Henry and Mrs. Henderson with Mrs. Karstedt accompanying. An in- teresting little play was given by Misses Jean Duncan and Jean Mc- Tavish. The newly elected president, Mrs. W. Henry, brought a message for the New Year and conducted the business hour. Mrs. Cargoe spoke briefly as did the heralds, Mrs. Brady, Mrs. Inkster and Mrs. McFaddenj. Miss V. Nicholson gave a talk on "Alcohol." Miss Ruth Turney fol- lowed with a piano solo. Mrs. Down closed the meeting with prayer. The hostess served lunch and a social half hour was spent. Feed A Balanced Ration If there is one thing more than any other the importance of which i.s stressed in hog feeding, it is that grains alone are not enough to make pood hogs, and that for the produc- tion of the select bacon type hog it is important that a balanced ration be fed. In many parts of Canada, particu- larly throughout the Prairie Prov- inces, there is an abundance of cheap grain feeds which as they stand are unmarketable, but when fed to live stock quite attractive prices can be realized. Where grains alone are fed the live stock is seldom satisfactory and to get worthwhile results a pro- tein supplement must be included to balance the ration. Skim milk or butter milk in some form is the ideal protein supplement in hog feeding. These, however, are not always available but because these are not available is no reason why other equally good forms of pro- tein supplement should not be used. A very fine type of pork can be pro- duced through fedfiing tankage, a by-product of the packing industry. This provides an animal protein sup- plement ideal for hog feeding, and at the present time this can be obtained essentially at cost. Footprints in the sands of time arc not made by sitting down.

T Breeding Troubles Following long winters with deep snow as this winter promises to be, a great deal of trouble is usually experienced with hairlessness in the young pig's, goitre in calves and in lambs, and joint ills in foals. It is suggested that these troubles may be traced to a lack of iodine in the thyroid gland of the pregnant female, and losses from this cause may be avoided by feeding iodine in the form of potassium iodide. Potassium iodide has a generally stimulating effect, toning up the whole system, and exerts a partic- ularly strong influence on the gen- eratlvo organ.<». Females which are apparently non-breedera will often be- come pregnant after this drag has boon administered for a few months. For cows, dissolve two ounces of potassium iodide in a c\ip of w^arm wntev; spwrikle this solnlio.n over one hundred T»onnds of j^alt evenly and in 1 thin layer on a clean floor and mix thoroughly.
