In the The statement “prooerly selected and ï¬nished†used above is used ad- visedly. The British consumer is a connoisseur of beef and his palate is not likely to be satisï¬ed with any second rate meat, consequently it we do not wish to land this prospec- tive beef trade into the secondary position in which we now ï¬nd our bacon trade, let us start right. by adding over a well graded groduot. {Experimental Farms Note, Feeders of beef cattle may ln'rk with considerable assurtm'w in? :1 strong market {01‘ [)l'Uptl'lV .s it .“h it P and ï¬nished export beef on tho him during the latter part of April and the lirst weeks Hf May. So very great movement can talu- plaee he- fore that time for the terms of the cattle embargo removal. which be- come effective April 1. stipulate that all cattle must be shipped from a Canadian port. Montreal is the lo- gical economical port for these ship- ments but it will not. be upen until about the eml of April. A few Ship- ments may go by way of Halifax or St. John in the meantime. but. on account of the high cost or rail transportation, the bulk will be. held for the opening of the port of Mont- real. Present indications point to a heavy demnd from the British mar- ket as soon as it can be supplied. The Eastern International Dog Derby held in the ancient city of Quebec recently was a curious in- stance of the fascination this sport has for all kinds and conditions of men. Never since the days of the war were there gathered on the streets of that city such crowds as were there to see the dogs start and finish. and the dramatic incidents of the race were followed by crowds around the bulletin boards of the city as reports came in by telephone from various points along the route of the race. The race was run in three heats, the distance averaging 43 miles on each day which was by no means HE racing of dog teams in sleighs is probably not an ancient form of sport, and more probably still. it is a sport that came first into being in our own country. It is pretty sure that prehistoric man had his friendly dogs to help him run down his game and warn him of the approach of enemies and perhaps served some small purpose as a beast of burden. Modern days have seen dogs hauling carts through the streets of Euro- pean towns and when the white man flT‘l came to Canada the Indians oi the plains harnessed him as they dit their horses to a couple of poles on which were placed articles they wish- ed to convey from one camp to an- other. In the Arctic the sleigh was the natural form of vehicle and the development of the “Muskie" from the wolf was the natural form of evo- lution. The dog performed a great work in the opening up of the North to civilization. Travel and trade de- pended entirely upon him and he did his work well. The natural instinct of the white man towards sport could; only result in the development of dog team racing and the interest in' the sport has spread until no winter amival in Canada or the Northern State: is complete without at least one dog race.

They set out on the course at ten minute inter- vals. and as each team shot away from the starting point it was given a splendid send-off. The finishes were much more exciting. and that of Jean Lebell, the winner, had un- doubtedly the best team for that kind of a race. Only one term could ex- u‘tly describe themâ€"they were mon- qrels, and there's much to be said for the mongrel if the breeds that make up his varied parentage are of the right sort. Jean Lebell’s dogs were largely Great Danes, but here and there, there seemed to be a touch of the hound or even of the greyhound in them, and that may ac- count tor their speed. The one Unit- ed States entry in the race was a magnificent team of huskies that owned Labrador as their original home. They were beautiful dogs, but they were not in good shape, or perhaps the story of the race might have been different. That is the bare story of the race. easily enough told, but it is not so easy to tell of the tremendous inter- es: taken in the race by the people of Quebec and the hundreds of visitors vho had come from all over Canada "and the United States to witness it. The Grande Allée. Quebec's show street. was every day lined with thousands of maple to see the dogs start and finish. and it half the pro- mises made are lived up to, another year will see hundreds of dog teams owned and trained by Quebec’s citi- zens. purely for the love of the game. ".4. Rn an (‘xm‘t‘i SIN‘P ~21)“th It is too early to say how much ice. Orangvvillv will cut in the new re- distribution, but we hope We. will be stuck in some place where. the vote is closer than it ha been in Dufl'erin. Another international dog race is practically assured for Quebec next year. The Chateau Frontenac for this occasion housed a brilliant gath- ering of guests who were interested in the race. and some of these have announced that they will see that the United Rtateq is well represented. \ Another Brown Corporation team, driven by Jim Skeene was the first to appear. It had started second, but passed the first early in the race, and Lebell folowed about one minute behind. All through the series Le- bell had saved his dogs by taking them out of the harness alternately and giving them a rest in the sleigh. He had made a bet that he would for the third time be the first in the stable. When about four miles from the finish and going strong one of his dogs suffered a cut foot. There was hard going ahead if that bet was to be won, but Lebell never flinched. The dog came out of the harness, his foot was bound up and, wrapped in Lebell’s coat, he finished the rest of the journey in the sleigh, and if ever a dog looked ashamed of himself as his comrades pulled to victory, that dog was the one. While Skeene beat Lebell to the finishing post, Lebell managed to get into the stable first, and so won his bet. Lebell is a French-Canadian with a fine war record. He and his dogs are inseparable chums, and when it comes to endurance, the man is about as good as the dogs. He finished the race running beside his team and doing a good share of the pulling on the sleigh. He is today the hero of Quebec and the $1,000 prize and silver cup, which he won, is but a small part of the glory that fell to him. Since Dnll‘erin became a Dominion constituency the county has been represented by only three men. The ï¬rst member was thelate Dr. Barr. who resigned his seat in the Ontario legislature and was elected. He died very suddenly while attending a session of parliament.
