The 1956 death rate remained at the record 1954 low of 8.2 per 1000 popula- tion, the fourth lowest death rate in the world. A record low infant mortality rate of 81 per 1000 live births established in 1955. The bureau remarked, however, that infant mortality still remained a ser- iuos problem since it amounted to 11 per cent of all deaths in 1955 and the Canadian rate is higher than that in seven other countries." } The 1955 marriage rate dipped to 8.2 per 1000 from 8.5 in 1954, the lowest since the war and a continua- tion of the trend that started in 1951.

From December 5th to December 24, there were 85,000 letters and cards posted locally, Because of the shortage of lock boxes there is a very large general delivery which adds to the work of the post men who spend much time at the wicket handing out mail. Plans had been made for alterations to provide for more box space. These plans were not approved by Ottawa and had to be redrawn. The new plans have been approved and it is hoped that these alterations will be made in the new year providing greatly in- creased lock box space as well as other conveniences which will make for casier handling of the growing volume of mail. It is understood that if these plans are carried out it will be possible for the box holder to pick up his mail at any time--day or night. finest anthracite plus the town's best service, CALL REESOR FUEL & LUMBER ' PHONE 73 Buy the coal that | outsells all others * Discover for yourself why more people buy 'blue coal' than any other hard coal.

Graze it down to six to 10 inches and then remove the animals to permit the sudan to recover to 19 inches before grazing again, they advise. Too much water can be just as bad as too little for your grass crop. For best results, find out which forage crops are best suited to the maisture content of your land; then choose special grasses for the wet spots, The loyalty of AWLELROCK DEPARTM!
