FW' I A great many undesirable hogs are being marketed by the farmers through I out the Province of Ontario. These are being converted into export bacon. and forwarded to Great Britain, and becauseof their quality are sold there an. loss. This loss must ultimately I be borne by the farmers, although the l packers at the present moment are be- I ing severely punished. As an exam 1e we quote the condi- tion of the “3J2 at the Geo. . Matthews Company's factory, Ottawa, for the months of November and December, 1901, and the first week of January 1902. In November 1901, at total of 8970 pigs were received at this factory. Ot these 5703 were 'Seleets," 160?. were "Lights," 1244 were "Light tata," 86 were "Heavy fats, " 97 were "Sows'. 5were "Stags,” 13 were "Cripple!'," and 220 were "Stores, "these latter be. ing lean pigs, ttnfit for any purpose.

THE CANADIAN BACON TRADE m GREA'I BRITAIN IN DANGER. li the farmers continue to maria-t such a large number of undesirable pigs, it will seriously injure the Can- ndian Bacon Trade in Great Britain, and will bring about greatly roduccd prices tor hogs throughout Canada. A little boy recently came to the residence of Mr Isaac Hooper on the 2nd of Jan. demanding food and cloth- ing, needless to say in this hospitable home his Wants were complied with. They have decided to keep him. Thev are to bl, congratulated on this tine New Year's gilt. All are doing well. Pigs termed t3eleets' are those that can be made into the best class of Wiltshire bacon, and are the sort that have made Canadian bacon famous on the English market. In order to keep up the price of hogs, the packers must receive the sort of hogs that will make the finest Wiltshire sides. To make this the packers must have smooth, deep, well-fed pigs, with a large am, unt oflean meat in the carcasses. in proportion to the umonnt of fat They must be well finished, and weigh on reaching the packing house from one hundred and eighty (180) to two hundred (200) pounds. On the pigs termed 'Lights' the packers lost at least one dollar per head. The 'Light fats' can be cut up and put into the retail trade, but too large a num- ber ot these light pigs, would at any time, glut the local market. The 'Heavy fats' can be worked up, when not too numerous. but will p.vll for at least one half dollar per hundred, live weiy ht, less than Seleets.' Sows'and Stags' are very poor property and can only be used in supplying a very in- furior trade. In order to he of any value tothe packers. Sows'and Stags' should be made as fat as possible. 'Cripples' are ot little or no value, to the packers, and are always fed at a loss to the farmers. Stores' should nwer reach the pork packers, yet thousands of them are sentevery Week to the market by the Farmer. Mrs Jas Baxter recently had the misfortune to fall and strain her wrist from wlnch she is gradually recover- mg.

The ratepayers of this part appear perfectly satistiea with the resultoi'the Municipal elections. Some have lost a vote or two of course. but then they are not alone. there is consolation in this. They usually select two good men and stay with them instead ot having a halt-dozen running.

Well Mr Ed. it 13 some time since we have givun account ot vur burg, but we will try and state some of the events tuttt has taken place. Mr ond Mrs 1lerkruald of Durham are visiting friends around the burg. Mr Mack and Miss Clara McDonald gave us a call last week, then return- ed to Durham on Tuesday last. Mr Willie Wilson attended the opening ofthe new church at Dornoeh, and had a pleasant visit among his friends there. Miss M. Gordon. Durham, teacher, has started teaching and the pupils are wel! pleased with her. Miss Minnie Wilson spent a fcwdays last week with her cousin Miss Eva Booth. Angus McCormick, Glenroden was in our burg lust week, and had a pleasant visit at D. Campbell's. Miss Martha Wi?snn is visiting M her sister's Mrs Hugh Wilson's, Singhamp- tion. We are glad to state that Mr. James Welsh is able to be around attain, after being bedtast for two weeks. Mr and Mrs Noble Wilson is at present visiting at the latter's parents Mr and Mrs Alex Weir, Singhampton. A sleigh load of young people from here spent a pleasant night at Mr and Mrs Will s11ekeelinie's, last week. Mr Charlie McKinnon, South Line, is a weekly visitor at our little burg. A very enjovable day was spent at MrChas. Me0msm's last Wednesday, all their children being present, bat Mrs Jas. Marshall, Durham. besides 19 grandchildren and their old neighbors, Mr and Mrs D. McCannel. Some of our young men will catch the measels if they keep visiting Ireland. Mrs John Hewitt while walking out. around the door slipped on ice and got a bad fall, but we hope she will be able to be around soon. Prolessor Kemp, the very highly peeomrncnded phrenologist who gave two lectures in school house last week and so many people are consulting him that he is still here. He is un- doubtedly first class and thouroughly reliable and we can cheerfully and honestly recommended him to the good people of this or any other vicinity. We think he intends to leccure free at Dromore and Swinton Park in the near future. Export eutle--Were steady, being in excellent demand. The offerings were not of the beet, verv fewhnlly go n1 ones being on the market. Choice exporters brought 84.50 to " M and medium ores Mdio to $4.50. The sale ot Mr Stinson's went nicely. Bidding was brisk, bat the weather not favorable. Mr Wm Leggate, of Vickers. gave us acall last Sunday. He must have been cold or those large bottles kept him warm. We wonder if Jack frost would let him sleep going back. Mr Bob IIcwitn is getting to be an expert at the bean bags. There was a good steady trade at the Toronto Cattle Market to-day. Prices in a” ones were well maintained. the demand being good all round. Receipts were 60 loads. which included 881 cattle. 198 sheep and lambs. 1,640 bogs and 15 calves.
