Wednesday. Feb. IS, 1939 THE PLEfiHBIMrOlf ABVANCB Life Steck Report (By Dmm ft Uvftck. Taraato) Monday's cattle market was pUaa- ing to all concerned and prices ad- vanced a quarter on practically all classes. Calves and lambs held fair- ly strong, while hogs recovered fully from last week's decline. , Choice weighty steers brought 7.26 to 7.60; fair to good ft.76 to 7.26. In the butcher section choice steers and heifers were in good demand at from 6.60 to 6.76; fair to good from 6.76 to 6.26; common to medium 6.00 to 5.50. Choice baby beeves sold readily at from 8.00 to 9.00, others at 6.60 to 7.50. Cows reached a new high price for the year, choice from 4.75 to 6.25; fair to good from 4.25 to 4.65; common to medium from 3.26 to 4.00; canners and cutters 3.00. The bull trade was .steady, choice but- cher bulls from 4.75 to 5.25 and good bolognas from 4.25 to 4.50. The lamb market held strong with choice lambs selilng at 8.75 and good butcher sheep 5.00. Calves were in good demand, choice from 10.00 to 10.50; fair to good from 8.50 to 9.50; common to medium 6.00 to 7.50. The hog market was active with truck deliveries .selling on Monday at 9.00. The prospects for the balance of the week look steady, depending entirely upon supplies. AUCTION SALE Mrs. J. J. Lyncss will hold a cred- it auction sale of farm stock and implements on Stone's Line on Fri- day, February 24th. Heifer Beoune FrigklMMdl (Bjr Proton St«ti«D Corr.) A heifer belonging to Dever Bros, was put up for auction »! Mr. A. Sherson's sale. The animal baeams frightened and in spite of all efforts to prevent her she reached the road and ran about three mils ending up in Mr. T. White's bush at the back ot his farm where her pursuers lost track of her and she was out all the stormy night. Next morning the run-away beast was seen on the rail- way track and possibly hunger made her call in at Gordon Acheson's yard. Gordon tactfully let his cattle out and after some chasing succeeded in getting the stranger into the shed with the otiicr cattle. Messrs. Wes Dever and Jack Neilson arrived and the three men put ropes on her and managed to get her to the Dever stable. The boast was wild and cer- tainly would have hurt the men if she had not been overpowered.

Roota, cabbage, alfalfa hay and sprouted oats are commonly used for winter feeding. Probably alfalfa is the most valuable element in the winter poultry ration, and if the following precaution is taken in feeding it may be used in unlimited quantity. For several years it has been the practice of the Experimental station at Harrow to chop fine the young alfalfa shoots for the baby chicks and to use cut alfalfa hay as the sole means of supplying the necessary roughage and greens for winter egg production. A good grade of second or third cutting hay is run through the cutting box in about half-inch lengths, steeped for about twenty- four hours by entirely covering with cold water, strained, and fed in shal- low tubs. For the best results it is fed immediately after the early morn- ing grain and again late in the after- noon. Old stalks left should be thrown out where the birds cannot reach them or they may be the cause of crop trouble. Fair results may be had by feed- ing good alfalfa leaf dry but the experience at this station is that the steeped cut hay is better appreciated by the birds on acoount of its easy digestibility and because it is more palatable. The fellow who thinks himself big usually is just a big nuisance.

DundalkSJleshertonS In a fast, hard fought game Dun- dalk takes a two goal lead home with them. Soft ice hampered the play of the Flesherton boys together with penalties which meant their downfall. In the first period Flesherton drew first blood on a beautiful shot by Boyd on a pasout from the corner by Smith. This turn of the tide was not to the referee's liking apparently and as a result he started handing out penalties to the local boys for no rea- son whatever. At one stage in the game Flesherton was two men short and as a result Dundalk ran in three quick goals. Near the end of the per- iod the local boys tried hard and were rewarded with a goal by Piper on a hard shot from left wing after Boyd and Gorrell had set up a nice passing play. , ' The second period started with the local boys still getting the odd penal- ty and play became a close checking game. Half way through the period Smith tied it up from a scramble in front of the Dundalk cage. The per- iod ended with the score deadlocked at three all. In the third period the ice became very soft and much to the liking of the Dundalk players. Flesherton just seemed outlucked during the whole period as they had most of the play but just couldn't beat Sims. Half way through the period the referee began to shine again when he rewarded Dun- dalk a penalty shot because Ferris, who played his best game of the sea- son, threw the puck over the side boards when pressed. However. Dun- dalk missed the net with the shot and play was resumed. The turning point of the game came when Dar- gavcl was staging a rush when a Dun- dalk defenceman rode him, not to mention the butt end thrown in, when the former was rounding the defence. This punishment was unbearable to the Flesherton lad and in defending his rights slashed the said player back. Of course the referee could see only the slash ami as a result Dargavel received a penalty. During the pen- alty Dundalk scored what proved to be the winning goal and added another on a long shot to sew up the game. Flesherton lads seemed to wilt after this penalty and thus ended up on the short end of a 5-3 score. It is to be hoped during the next Kume on Friday evening in Dundalk that the locals will be favored by Lady Luck and will be able to make use of their scoring opportunities. Next year wc hope that when referees are appointed by the executive that the board of governors will give Flesher- ton at least a little say in choosing the referee and not to be ignored entirely. It is kind of hard to under- stand why the executive wanted an outside referee and why they wanted to go so far away from home when O.H.A. referees can be secured who know more about the game and who will at least play fair. Any referee who will not play fair shows a lack of judgment on somebody's part or perhaps a little influence on the part of the other team. Huf* Dun May B« Buflt Neur Fergut Work for close to Bvrm huadrod men iMiy be mvaiUble in the Feryoa district this aprinf , if oonstruetion Is begun on s proposed huge storage dam on the Grand Rhrer, three miles upstream from Pergiu, in connection with the Grand River conservation and flood control scheme. Plans are being prepared by Engineer H. G. Acres for such a dam. It may be possible to build a dam there sixty- one feet high and still be within the price limit of $1,600,000. H. Templin of Fergus, a member of the Grand River Conservation Commission, says that this site will conserve about four times as much water as the originally planned Waldemar dam and twice as much as the former proposal of two dams, one at Waldemar and the other at Hollen. A dam such as proposed would be the largest of its kind in Canada. Him is Engnsh. Ihm Is German. And they both mean the same thing.

While he sits in a comfortable chair the operator can guide the twin-aiotored cutter around the lawn. Starting with a regular cutter, the inventor installed two motors whose speed Is regulated by the control box beside the chair. When both motors are running at the same speed the mower runs straight; by diminishing the speed on one or the other, the machine is turned to left or right. A 100-foot length of wire, connecting the controls of the motor, is wound on a revolving paint can mounted on the mower. An old barril hoop and mixing bowl provide bumper and shock absorber, â€" Popular Mechanics.
