Rossiter, the New England mill magnate, said on his return from England: "English busi- ness is in a bad way, and it keeps getting worse instead of better; but the English business man is full of grit. He takes his hard luck philo- sophically. "He can even take it merrily. An English manufacturer recently got a wire from a customer: " 'Cancel our order at once' "The manufacturer wired back: "Your order can't be cancelled at once.

Treasurer's Report-- Total receipts Expenditures Balance POULTRY CO-OPERATIVE The Chamber of Commerce in Nor- folk County is sponsoring the forma- tion of a poultry co-operative along the lines of that already in operation in Oxford County, which is doing a very large business for some 800 members. The prime purpose of the co-operative will be the organized marketing of eggs, which heretofore has been conducted in a haphazard manner, with resulting loss to pro- ducers and failure to maintain uni- form standards of quality. The co- operative would also assist in the dis- tribution of birds of high productive qualtiies. OO PROFESSOR GRAHAM SPEAKS Poultrymen will be interested in the following excerpts from a recent address by Prof. Graham of 0.A.C. One of the things that poultrymen have learned is that direct sunlight is the cheapest kind of feed. Poultry do not thrive in_the dark, Just as the beef cow and dairy cow, are two very different types, so the laying hen is a type distinct from the hen that does not produce plenty of eggs. No one understands just why the beef cow puts the food on her back and the dairy cow puts it into the milk pail Nor do we know why some hens get fat and some lay. But the difference is there and the suc- cessful dairymen and poultry raisers must get the right type of animal. All nations of the world are spend- ing large sums on research and pro- duction. We may as well get ready for the expenditure of even larger sums for research. It is i tive. to improve general living conditions of the people. Poultry raising has become a busi- ness. Nowadays we have the mam- moth incubator that hatches 12,000 chicks at a time. This is all done electrically. Heat is furnished and controlled and eges are turned by electric current. year in On. | tario eight million chicks were Batch- Jets one two-week period.

Mrs, Householder remarked to her daughter that her scissors were dull. The daughter knew it too, and be- ing a person of action, she took them to Dorman Corbman and had them sharpened for 10c. He made such a good job of those scissors that other dull knives and scissors found their way to Corbman's shop just north of Prentice's barber shop. There was a saw lying around the house. It was 'better for a bruise than a cut. Dad never could do any- thing with it, It was Dad's birthday soon and the small boy in the house made up his mind that he would give Dad a real birthday present. So he sneaked the old saw out of the house and took it down to Corbman. For a quarter it was made good as new, or a little better. Needless to. say--when Dad re- ceived his birthday present, he con- sidered it one of the best he had had for along time past. Of course you do not need to wait for a birthday in the family to have the tools sharp- ened.. Corbman will do the job any time and do it right.
