Jack Miner never uses the word “exterminate.” He believes in com trcl, whether it be animal plant, in sect or bird life, or even humanity and he feels he has a right to his own opinion, as muoh as any individ- ual who thinks the animal, insect or bird kingdom should rule. If a man wants a hawk or owl sanctuary or a weed garden Jack Miner does not kick; but that is all he will ever have became the place will be robbed of the more valuable things of life. Yet ifaperson is raising,r chickens or other poultry. or if a person has a sanctuary where small song»; and in- sectivorOUS birds nest, or if he has a garden, the man must control and detroy weeds and the undesirable. “COST OF MILK" SURVEY BY ONTARIO PRODUCER ‘Jack Miner, noted ornithologist, has ccme out with a statement which contains his declaration of View on the question of fowl that prey on other fowl. ’ii.?.- is ar- answer to- some criticism which has been sent him because of his reference some time ago to owls killing his morning doves at the Kinsville sanctuary. This is his whole ‘bill of claim against the creatures {which devour other bird life. His indictinent Off “protecting owls, hawks and other vermin that steal chickens‘” is expressed under these fiVe heaas. 1.

On and after September lst of this year, it becomes compulsory for all creamery butter sold to consumers in the province of Ontario to be marked so as to show the “chaser the grade of butter he is buying. Be- tailers who .sell butter by means of cutting direct from bulk 56 pound blocks at the counter, will be re- sponsible for placing the grade marks on the wrapper used.
