To date, no mention has been made of the car of Dairy Cattle which ar- rived in this district on the 3rd of September. So I think a few lines would be in order. The car consisted of sixteen head, eight Holsteins and the same number of Ayrshires, all of these animals came from: accredited herds. The Holstein from around Woodstock, and the prices ranged from $100.00 for grades, to $150 for pure-breds. This kind of dairy Cow can be picked up early "if the price is right" in the above local- ity. A carload can be secured in very a short time. Regarding the Ayrshire, is a differ- ent matter. The breeders of these are fewer and testing has not reached the same stage as with the Holstein. And for another thing they are not so easily sold. To illustrate this point, o Back in 1921 we sold the United States agricultural Canadian Farm Expor products to the value of $146,539,8 After the Fordney August i621 U.S. Tariff of 1922 went into effect in the United States we sold them only $51,337,733 worth. By raising their tariffs the United States fa: about $100,000,000 per annum more into ; the Canadian farmers have lost it. | What is the lesson to the Canadian farmer? On what terms is the aden rl with the farmer of the United States? Th ry Br 10t z only forbid the sale of his products in ti es ; but compel him at the same time to witne €s : farm products replacing his own in the b of i Canada.

It was, therefore, to the Farmer's benefit. 8 And we prove it.

He had two fall milkers, which he priced at $75, When asked if he would stand the test, he replied he would for $20 each. The Ayrshires were finally bought from near Simcoe. after having covered 660 miles of road, to 147. Of these, seven of them were pure-breds. I must say that in the Woodstock area, one has a great choice to pick from. Having great assistance from 8. O'Neill, of the Live Stock Branch; A. G. Murray, Dominion Vetinary; R. H. Green, District Representative, and his Assistant, Mr Staples. All of the above men did all they could to help. Anybody wishing to purchase good Stock at the present time, the best buy would be Heifers, that will freshen next spring. Pure-bred and of good quality, can be picked up for $75.00 each.
