SPECIALS EVERY WEEK Willis Heckbert Phone 96 King Street Colborne Cloverleaf Six-weeks-old Pullets For delivery the latter part of July will mean a full egg basket next November and December when prices are at their peak. Ontario produces only 15 per cent, to 20 per cent, of the eggs consumed in the province during the winter months, the remaining 80 per cent, to 85 per cent, are imported from the U.S. Why not help Ontario supply her own markets with a high-grade product and let the U.S. consume her own inferior eggs. You can help this great industry with a good profit and with a small initial outlay. We will have a limited number of six-weeks-old pullets at 75c each, available for the above date from our consistent heavy layers, that will return big profits next Fall and Winter.
