This is the season when nurses graduate from many training schools and unfortunately the only way in which wo can give practical encour- agement to the young ladies is by falling ill in generous numbers. Live Stock Reporl (By Dunn & Levack, Toronto) Although supplies of cattle were considerably lighter for Monday's market, there was sufficient for the present demand. Weighty steers con- tinued to drag, while butcher cattle held steady. The cow market was easier. Lambs declined, while hogs were stronger. A few choice weighty steers sold at 6.75, with the bulk of the sales of fair to good, ranging from 6.2B to 6.50. Choice butcher steers and heif- ers brought 6.50, fair to good from 6.00 to 6.40; common to medium 5.00 to 5.75. Choice baby beeves brought from 7.00 to 8.00, others at lower prices according to quality. Choice light heifery cows brought from 5.00 to 5.25, choice heavy cows 4.75 to 5.00; fair to good from 4.00 to 4.50; com- mon to medium 3.25 to 3.65; canners and cutters 2.75 to 3.00. The bull trade was easier, choice light butcher bulls, 5.00 to 5.25. choice heavy hulls 4.50 to 4.75; light bolognas 4.00 to 4.25. Supplies of lambs were heavy and the market was considerably easier, choice lambs selling at 12.50, with prospects of lower prices for the bal- ance of the week. Choice butcher sheep brought from 3.50 to 4.00. The calf trade was steady, choice 8.50, with a few tops at 9.00; fair to good from 7.50 to 8.25; common to medium 5.50 to 6.50. The hog market opened stronger, truck deliveries selling from 8.75 to 8.25, and the prospects look favorable for thn balance of the week.

In (he country^ iann homes are iar away irom each other â€" it takes a lot of time to send somebody "next door"â€" but it takes no time at all when you've got a telephone. Then you are in touch with your neighbours, with the stores in the village â€" and ii your grown up children are working in nearby towns â€" you can hear their voices too. Every farm home should have a telephone â€" because it costs so little. // Changes in the Toronto Confer- ence of interest to our readers, are as follows: to Maxwell, Rev. G. L. Mercer; to Uffington, Rev. Robt. M. Dingwall; to Port Carling. Rev. W. R. Clements; to Heathcote, Rev. Stan- lev Elliott. CAR RAN INTO STONE WALL F. T. Hill & Co., Ltd. MARKDALE, Ont. ^♦'^♦^*' ^*^**5 Miss Delmar Seeley of Maxwell had the misfortune to have her car badly damaged at Dunedin when it ran into the side of a b«rn when it was left standing on a grade. The front end received the brunt of the blow and was caved in considerably. Miss Seeley was teaching music in the school at the time of the accident. "Bren Charges Hurt Orders," says headline. In other words much bus- iness was shot. For the benefit of th« young ladies in general it should b« recorded that the Queen's finger nails are not painted. v "Jack, Oh he'a an hotel cook." "A capable one, I expect." "Rather. iEvery day he Invents a new name for the same soup." "Did the doctor take your temper- ature?" "I dunno. All IVe missed so far is my watch." It has been stated by a number of writers that Canadian credit stands high because the last Dominion loan was snapped up in such a hurry. Act- ually wo would be in better shape if our spare money was out doing a day's work rather than looking for a snug harbor in which to anchor in safety. LOW RATES for FARM HOMES Small Ad.
