ISUCKINGHAM CREAM The tremendous demand for butter which was created during: the war is still with us. As it now looks, there will he no interference with its mar- ket, as far as substitutes are concerned, Would it not, therefore, be wise on the part of the pro- ducer, to step up the production by adding to the dairy herd, and a little extra feeding and care. Good business on the part of the producer, and appreciated by the Canadian consumer. Let us again stres.s the fact, that by stepping up the production, ymi arc helping to keep the mar- ket for butter only â€" not for substitutes. As usual â€" Hig-hest Possible Price and Best Pos- sible Service â€" continues to be our motto, Extra Creamery Service On account of the highways being bare, you can phone us and our truck will meet you at the highway to pick up your cream, eggs and poultry. The creamery will be closed Saturday nights until further notice.

In many cases had payments not been available the unemployed would have suffered want! What's the good of Unemployment Insurance? â€" Can there be any doubt! Unemployment Insurance helps the employer by providing unemployed with purchasing power; and helps the worker by providing maintenance allowances during unemployment. Employer and Employee and the Gov- ernment all have cm interest â€" Unem- ployment Insurance is a large factor io a healthy National Economy. <bJS Make full use off your local office of the National Employment Service.
