Such a chance every farmer in Victoria coun- ty has from the 26th to the 30th Jan nary, when a five days course in seed and stock judging is in progress in Lindsay. ' This course is practical, under the direction of the best stock and grain judges in America. Men who are an- thorities on their subjects all over our continent, and whose very per- sonalities is an inspiration to those who come in contact with them. Come tor the whole course. Prepara- tions are made for your instruction in the daytime by practical demon- strations‘ and in the evening iv in- structive addresses.
