OF THE Animals 6 to 10 Years Old Wanted in Europe British and European demand for -Canadian horses for wartime pur poses continues brisk, Fred Hoag, 'prominent horsd buyer of Ingersoll, Ont, declares. Bad road conditions, however, have slowed shipments out of Western Ontario in recent woeks, Mr. Hoag, who ships directly to Montreal, estimated last week that thousands of Canadian animals have left that city fo. export trade since mid-December, with Western Ontario contributing heavily. GOOD WORK HORSES Most of the shipments out ot Montreal, he sald, are destined for England, though American buyers have been bidding keenly at 'the horso market there to fill orders " from France and other European countries, + Mr. Hoag reported all types ot good work horses in demand at the present time, with exports showing preference for wagon horses welgh- ing from 1,250 to 1,450 pounds, and brown or black in color.-Ages desir. ed are between five and ten years, MICKIE SAYS-- 'EVEN IF YOUVE GOT PLENTY OF BUSNESS, KEEP ON ADVERAISING | ITS 'GOOD INSURANCE FER TH RAINY DAY SE Benton ne Canadian Voters Increase 600,000 Enumerators' Returns Show Ten Per Cent.

AND THE RESULTS?... *Tho immediate consequences were readily discernible: 1, Fin- land was brought within the Rus- slam trade orbit; 2. Russia became undisputedd master of the Gulf of Finland; 3. Scandinavia was drawn closer to Russia and Germany; 3, Russian war materials were releas- ed for Germany's use; 4 .neutrallz- ation of the entire Scandinavian area; possibility of a north Europ ean war front In the conflict be- tween Germany and the Alltes was removed; 5.

From Washington came the opin- fon that peace between Germany and tho Allies was brought closer by the collapse of Finnish resist. ance. DIDN'T WANT HELP Tho question that stood largest in tho minds of people both here and abroad was: Why did the Finns choose a * costly peace in prefer- ence to asking for aid from the Al- lles? In a despatch from London by New York Times' correspondent, James Reston, we find reasonable anwsers: 1. the Finns doubted whe- ther the 50,000 available Allied troops would ever get to Finland -- lermany would have moved north to meet them with land and air ftor- ces; 2. Finnish military experts doubted that Allied aid could reach there in time, even {if no fulerfer- ter; 3. the Finns hesitated becauso - of their bonds with Scandinavian countries -- they feared Norway and Sweden would be overrun and "Scandinavia turned into the main battlefield of Europe; 4. the Finns feared that it they did not sue for peace they would be kept at war in- definitely so that Russia could not help Germany (according to the "Ironside plan'). = | i HOME POT BOILS = ° "On the home front, all was by |" no means quiet.

NTARIO 'UTDOORS 'BY VIC BAKER IDENTIFY GAME FIRST The hunter who makes the ex- cuse of mistaken identity when he is arraigned in court on a charge of shooting-a protected animal or bird, really has no excuse at all, according to an article in the De- partment of Game and 'Fisheries monthly bulletin for January and February. The article advises hunters to restrain their trigger fingers until they are sure of the identity of the game. \ "In Sudbury recently," the ar- ticle says, "two men pleaded guil- ty of shooting three elk in the Burwash . Crown .game . preserve. In the course of their .defence both men maintained that the elk looked like deer." The article goes 'on to explain' those whose experience 'in hunting 'is very short, have no reasonifor stating that they thought an elk was a deer. The elk, both male and fe- male, is considerably larger -than a deer, : Refrain From 'Shooting "This business of mistaken id. entity, however, has a much.more extensive application.than just the inability to distinguish .game; It becomes tragic when a: hunter dis regards one of the miost important © rules associated with the use of a gun for hunting purposes. Several lives: were needlessly sacrificed during the last year because hunt~ ers failed to determine precisely, before shooting, just what they were firing at. At no time is there any similarity in appearance be- tween a man and a groundhog.
