And there should also be a good supply of capons, roasters, ducks and geese. All these forms of poultry should be on the market in both fresh and frozen forms, according to the Ontario Department of Agriculture Poultry Science Department at the O.A.C. Both frozen and fresh poultry are handled in the same way at the processing plant. Then fresh birds are packed in ice and those to be frozen are vacuum packed and quick frozen. Indeed, frozen poultry is often best because they can be killed at peak condition, whereas birds for sale fresh merely gain excess fat in the interval. Turkey remains the prime favourite at Christmastime. The main grades found in the stores are Special, Grade A and Grade B. Special is the top bird and it will have the most fat on it, as well as the best amount of meat on the brest. Grade A will not have as much fat and will have a good covering of meat over the entire bird, making it a good type to buy. Grade B turkeys lack finish and may have a bit of bluish colouring which indicates less fat than the of her two grades. Buying a large bird, besides being less expensive, has the advantage of allowing you to cut it in either quarters or halves and freeze part for later use. Many people fail to realize that halves or quarters can be handled in the same way that whole MODERN MOBILE MILLING Want better FEED at LESS COST?

GIFTS FOR GARDENERS Early December finds thousands of people racking their brains for fresh ideas on what to give for Christmas. There's no need to seek further if you remember that the number one hobby in Canada to-day is gar- . dening, reports garden expert John Bradshaw in the current issue of The Star Weekly. Gifts for the garden not only bring pleasure over the Christmas but for many years to come. Furthermore, you can make your selections from the comfort of an easy chair in front of your fire instead of having to shove and push your way through the Christmas shopping crowds. Just mail your order and the nusery will send a gift certificate. For the really keen gardener, John Bradshaw's Star Weekly article suggests you give either the 1960 or 1961 All-America Rose Selections. Duet and Pink Parfait are the All-America Rose Selections for next year. Pink Parfait, a magnificent grandiflora combines the most desirable characteristics of the hybrid tea and floribundina roses. Its daintily conceived buds range from a soft dawn pink to an apple blossom pink, and it is not unusual for a single mature plant to have 100 or more perfect buds at one time. Duet on the other hand is a richly distinctive bi-coloured hybrid tea. The beautifully sculptured buds open to medium sized blooms, with 30 lasting petals. The inner face of the petal is a soft pink, while the reverse side is a harmonious contrast of rich rosy crimson. John Bradshaw also describes the 1960 All-America Selections and his Star Weekly article gives details of shrubs, shade trees, potted plants and gardening books that will delight any gardening friend.
