As an illustration, hei quoted gures to show that in On-I tario cow *ests the thirty poorest` animals averaged 5,346 pounds ofl lmilk, netntinp: $106.92. The avera,L`e| for the 30 best was 11,393 pounds, bringing; in $227. That shows that there is a lot more money when the farmer weeds out `robber cows from his herd, said Mr. Martin. The government tries to facilitate these t.hinn;;s by education, through pamphlets and bullc-in:<. Love of animals is only one angle in farm work, but it is :1 large factor in keeping up the intereszt. 4 Cleaners and Pressers A. E. Whitby W. Firth Men s Wear VV. C. H11111'c1` Clothing Co.
