Carroll, Ontario Department of Agriculture, there is a very definite market for a good grade of malting barley. Certain interests, with the idea of encouraging the growth of malting barley in Ontario, have donated cash prizes to be awarded the best exhibits of 100 pounds of Ontario grown six- rowed barley shown at the Royal Winter Fair, The first prize consists of a gold medal and five hundred dol- lars. The other cash prizes are re- latively smaller. Barley entered in this competition will be judged more for suitability for malting than for feed or seed. The most desirable feature of barley for malting are soundness, full-size and uniformity of kernel, freedom from other grains, weed seeds and inert matter. ree tPA Penn. DIPPING SHEEP Ticks and other external parasites of sheep are seripus enough at any time and cause more direct loss than is generally supposed, but during the period when the sheep are in winter quarters it is even more important to rid them of all sources of irritation. It is especially desirable that the flock be clean before and during lambing, otherwise the infestation is sure to be passed along to the lambs which will thus receive a very serious set- back at the most important period of | their lives. MP pin HONEY PROSPECTS BRIGHT A cable to the Ontario Marketing Board indicates the prospects for On- tario honey, on the British market, as dingly bright. Empire stocks of high grade honey are low, thus creating a favorable condition for the reception of the surplus from Ontario. The cable states that at present no old crop New Zealand honey is avail-| able. Because of a shortage of immedi- ately available high grade new crop honey, present prices on bulk honey may be abnormally high. It is ex- pected, however, that prices will con- tinue well above those of last year. YOU CAN'T BE NEIGHBOURLY WITH A TARIFF WALL BETWEEN Labor, published in Washington, has an editorial on "A Sample of Tariff Imbecility."" It says North Dakota farmers are letting potatoes rot in the fields because the price to be obtained will not pay for digging. A short distance north, Manitoba farmers lost their crops and have not enough potatoes to eat. The Dakota farmers sent word to their neighbours to come and dig the potatoes and carry them away for their trouble. A tariff of forty-six cents a bushel stopped them. "Canada", says Labor, "doesn't often make a fool of herself; but she's a thorough soul when she gets started." ------ EP meen PORT PERRY UNITED CHURCH EMBURY & gi | Phone 108 r 22. GREENBANK A Flash fom Georgia ICE! ICE! Away. down south in Georgia, where the watermelons grow, is a greeting received today from E. Burt Peters, of Atlanta, Ga, to his parents, Mr, and Mrs. A. D. Peters, Port Perry. The first freeze of the season was last Saturday and Sunday. JUST AN INSPIRATION E. Burt. Peters: Now that the long campaign is done And glorious victory is won And patriots in words ecstatic Announce the land's gone Democratic, One question's murmured by the mob: "When will the jobless get a job?" When will the banks go back to lending ? When will the public start to spending ? When will the folk who feel the lack Of cash get old time pay checks back? Though all the West o'erflows with wheat, A million ask: "When do we eat?" At least one cheering thought we hold And to our bosoms close enfold: Whatever's done will make us glad; Times can't be worse than those we've had, And if improvement is in sight-- We can't expect it overnight. Proverbs 16:15:14:13:12. Miss Southwell Hurt Miss Southwell, housekeeper at Chamber's Bakery, was bad- 'ly hurt on Tuesday. As nearly as we can learn, Miss Southwell, who was alone in the room at' the time, attempted to reach some- thing on the top of one of the heavy cooling racks. In order to do this the unfortunate lady climbed on the lower part of the rack, and pulled the heavy steel structure on top of herself. She was pinned to the floor, where-she was discovered by Harold Burton, who secured assistance and effected a release. Miss Southwell was taken to the Port Perry Hospital. It was found $hat she was severely bruised and it is thought some ribs were roken.

Annual Rink Meeting Once more the shareholders of the Port Perry Rink have the opportunity of helping to form the policy of operation. If they do not turn out to the annual meeting any better than they have for the past few years, the attendance will be very small, and the actual influence of the shareholders will also be small, It be- gins to look as though we shall have to start out on another cam- paign to arouse interest in this very worth-while institution. If the rink is to remain of value and be put on a paying basis there will have to be a much greater interest taken. The meeting is to be held at the town hall on Tuesday evening, November 22nd.
