' l Grow in Popularity -In 1927 Canada s consumption of: sheep and lambs stood at 6.09 lbs. 4 per capita per annum, and by 1930 this had increased to 7.10 pounds.l_ This increase of one per cent., rough-'_. ly, is seemingly small, but it is really impressive. With our present popu- lation, the one pound increase repre- sents 10,000,000 pounds, or about 300,00-0 animals, or eight per cent. of our total sheep population. !

Let us follow it around. Probably the dry goods merchant gets it first. He passes it on to the hardware merchant in payment of an account. The hardware merchant pays it in wages to one of his employees. This employee pays it to his landlady, who pays a grocery bill with it. The grocer can then pay his butcher. The butcher passes this on to his produce mer- chant, and this produce merchant, buying largely from the farmer, passes this ten dollars back to the farmer, from whom it originally came. Thus it has, in its ramblings among the home town people, served many useful purposes and yet. it is still in the community to again serve. When in Need of Printing .

Farm News `J Render Important Service The important work which agri~ cultural repre.~'entati\'e.< are doing in the rural districts of Ontario is probably not fully appreciated, al- though it is receiving greater recog- U nition each year. Many of the re- presentat.i\'es have been with the department over a long period of_ years, have gained a very useful` knowledge and are s01`\'iI1'g; their re- spective districts most capably. It is learned that thirty of the representa- b tivcs have been in the service ve years or more; 14 for fteen years or more; 9 for sixteen years; 8 for L seventeen years; 7 for eighteen i, yars; 5 for ninteen years, and one for twenty years. Since the present b director, R. S. Duncan, assumed of- b ee 14 years ago, there has been a turnover of 66 agricultural repre- 0 sentatives in the service. Twelve are h now farming, 36 are still connected! with agriculture in some way or: other, and 18 have allied themselves(' with other business. . `I Prepare for Chicago Grain Show ?
