Then another team was tried out. but their owner declined to engage further in the walk-cleaning operations and so the plow has not been used for the latest snowfalls. It has been suggested that a tandem team might do the work. but so far this has not been demonstrated. We still have the snow plow. however. and in the interests of the common peOple. it should be kept on the job. if at all possibleâ€"Paisley Advocate. Mrs. Arthur Dickison of the 13th concession of CarricK was the victim of a very unfortunate and painful ac- cident last Friday evening.

And now we have Virgil Jordon of the National Indus- tries Council Board of the United States, boldly questioning whether the present system of small farms, owned and operated. by the individual farm- er, is not doomed to be replaced by something better. He stated that out of a total of 6,500,000 farms in the United States only 800.000 were a fin- ancial success, and it is reported that some chain farms are being operated by banks and insurance companies and are remarkably successful. The claim w-v â€"- v_____ is made that in sections where the ordinary farm produces forty bushels of corn to the acre at a cost of twenty-six dollars, the chain farm produces seventy bushels to the acre at a cost of twenty-nine dollars; and the return in the investments in chain farms is said to be from six to thir~ teen per cent.

Valentine recitations were well given by Miss Evelyn Hastie and Master Bobbie Hastie.

Hastie, while M. H. Bierworth and Mr. W. Krauter argued the negative. It was quite apparent to all which side was the easier to uphold. The judges. who were Rev. M. Young, John Mc- Donald and D. J.
