The build- ing was first-class and the machinery the best obtainable. The factory has had a hard struggle to keep going, but has closed the past year or two. The direc- tors having tried to dispose of it, found the hand cream separator had displaced the factory method, so decided to sell out the whole property. A I’eterboro lirm bought the machinery for $300, and the factory, which could be converted into a good dwelling, is now being offer- ed for sale. The shareholders will not realize much on their stock when obliga- tions are all met.â€"â€"0aku-oud Corr. I ’035. The Lindsay Post asks for the co-operaâ€" tion of all lovers of nature in using their influence to prevent the wholesale slaughter of our birds. It is the recog- nized sport of many of the youths of the town to go out into the country and kill everything they can find. Squirrels, even, one of the most harmless and the. most pretty animals of the whole animal creation, are not safe from destruction at the hands of these young vandals. Re- volvers, air guns and catapults are the weapons used, and so destructive are they in the hands of the maliciously inâ€" clined that unless some protective meas- ures are taken the rural districts will be deprived of so much of their charm by the killing of birds of song and beautiful plumage.
