At the dinâ€" ner table he was placed opposite a goose. The lady of the house was seated on the vicar‘s left. Seeing the goose, he remarked: "Shall I sit so close to the goose?" Finding his words a bit equivocal, he turned round to the lady and said, the roast one." 3. Learn to keep your troubles to yourself.. The world is too busy to linger over your ills and sorrows. 5. Learn to greet your friends with a smile. They carry too many frowns in their own hearts to be bothered with any of vours. There are five things in life which we ought to learn. Here they are: 1. Learn to laugh. A good laugh is better than medicine. 2. Learn how to tell a helpful story. A wellâ€"told story is as welcome as a sunbeam in a sickâ€"room. 4. Learn to stop croaking. If you cannot see any good in this world, keep the bad to yourself. As the farmers give closer attention to the handling of eggs and poultry products their interest therein is bound to increase. Many have been led to think that California produces more eggs than any other state in the American Union, but this is not the case. The five states in the Corn Belt produce from 29 to 87 per cent. reâ€" spectively more than: California, and these five states collectively produce more than five times as many dozen as the three Pacific States. Because of their highly organized coâ€"operative system of marketing, however, it is safe to say that the Pacific poultryâ€" men make a greater net profit from their eggs than do their fellow poulâ€" trymen in the Corn Belt. Yet the latâ€" ter have the advantage of cheaper feed and closer proximity to the most profitable markets. There is entirely too much spread between the prices the farm producer of Ontario, in comâ€" mon with the farm producer in the American Corn Belt, gets for his eggs and the ultimate price the consumetr pays. Strictly newâ€"laid eggs are sellâ€" ing in the stores toâ€"day (Saturday, Nov. 12) at 90c. per dozen while the farmer is getting only 41¢. to 43¢. per dozen. . Coâ€"operative eag marketing would greatly increase the producers‘ profits, without increasing the cost to the consumer. Never overlook the little things. Every thing is small at first, but they grow and ere you are aware of it they are big and very often difficult to handle without great loss of both money and interest. This is particuâ€" larly true with poultry. A little careâ€" lessness often ruins a breeder‘s chancâ€" es for the season or year. Determine to succeed and try worthily, and your future is assured. History appears to be repeating itâ€" self, and the price levels of commodiâ€" ties are acting very much like they did after the other great war convulâ€" sions in the world‘s history:. . If this similarity is maintained, as Mr. Frank Platt says in the American Poultry Journal, the poultryman will continue for some years to buy in a low marâ€" ket and sell in a higher market. No man knows what the future holds in store for him. He cannot see next year, or nmext week, or the closest thing in his‘life, the next hour. He can only go into the future with a/ knowledge of the past as his guide.‘ In the case of the poultryman history holds a very bright promise for him. After the civil war it took twelve years, or until 18§77, for the price of eggs to get back to the prevailing avâ€" erage prices of other commodities. During all this period everything that the poultryman bought was getting cheaper and cheaper. Other things were going down in price faster than the eggs which the poultryâ€"keeper sold. So far a similar condition has existed in the egg market since the world war. \In January, 1918, the price of fresh eggs was 170 of the preâ€"war basis. Two years later, Janâ€" uary, 1920, the price level stood at 183. In January, 1921, the price level was 171.. This month, . November, 1921, the price level is as high as it was last January, and will be higher next January. Corn has reacted more quickly than wheat, as it did after 1814 and 1865, but both are now at comparatively low levels. | There is one farm product, however, as to which this average does not hold goodâ€"that is eggs and poultry meat. Toâ€"day, the poultryman‘s dolâ€" lar has a higher purchasing power than even that of the manufacturer. Commercial poultrymen in Toronto toâ€" day are being paid 80 cents per dozen by the case for fresh eggs, and with corn selling at 57c. per bushel and mixed feed below $40.00 periton( the price the Poultry Division of the Exâ€" perimental Farm at Ottawa is paying) the poultryman‘s profits are large. Hereé again history promises to repeat itSelf. The United States Department of Agriculture has recently issued a bulâ€" letin on the price of farm products in the United States, which shows markâ€" ed similarity in the rise and fall of prices between the three war periods in that country‘s historyâ€"18§12â€"14;! 1861â€"65; and 1914â€"18. . As the prices in the U.S. of farm commodities have an important bearing on the prices of the same here, it may not be out of place to call attention to these figâ€" ures. In 1814 the level of wholesale prices reached 235 per cent. and then declined. In 1861 the wholesale price level stood at 93, rose to 200 in 1865, and then gradually delined until it reached 93 again in 1878. In 1914 the wholesale price level stood at 102; in 1920 it had gone to 250, and in July, 1921, had droped to 150 for manufacâ€" tured products and 100 for farm proâ€" ducts., That means that it â€"takes three of the farmer‘s dollars to equal two of those of his. manufacturing brother. History, is is said, is continually reâ€" peating itself. I listened to a preachâ€" er in a city pulpit one Sunday evenâ€" ing recently tell his congregation that the valedictory address of Moses to the people of Israel, as given in the 4th Chapter of Deuteronomy, was applicable to the people of Canada in this reconstruction periodâ€"in other words, that the problems of the Israelâ€" ites as they entered the Promised Land were much the same as the Canadians have to face toâ€"day. Hisâ€" tory is repeating itself. If we may judge the future by the past, then hisâ€" tory ‘favors the poultryman.
