1_ age Six |\0rillia Shows Heavy 1 Market Furkeys cH1cK'1~:Ns, DUCKS, GEESE ALSO PLENTIFUL BUT PRICES ONLY AVERAGE -- HIGH QUALITY FOWL. Orillia, `Dec. 15.--One of the bi-g~ gest `Christnr.1s poultry markets in years was held in Orillia _\'ester(la_\-', when hundreds of farmers, coming` from all corners of` the district. gathered to dispose of their tur- keys, chickens, ducks and geese. Though the average quality was high, prices were only average. A general survey of the market revealed that turkeys were selling at from 19c to 25c'a` pound, with ' few bringing the last gure. Chick- ens were being offered at from 17c ` ' to 22c a pound. Geese were bring- ing 18c to 20 a pound, while the few ducks that were offered found ready takers at a at price of 25c a pound. rm.:.. .m.,.-vs (`.}n~i: market in] lugu, ybluvu ...,__ , ef turkeys 25c :32 ` -......~ 1....:n.n~ n-`prnd pound. , This year s Christmas in Orillia was the result of strenuous efforts put forth by the Orillia Boarzl of Trade. In order to meet criticism levelled in other years by out-of-town buyers against the qual- ity of the fowl displayed for sale, the Oril".ia Board of Trade this year bucked an intensive educational canipaign am-onvgz the farmers, and held classes and alemonstrations, sl1o\\'in_<: how poultry should be fat- tened, killed and (lressed in order to 1)l()2l.~=E the most disc1`i1ninatii1;~,' buyer.

CANADIAN POTATOES IN CHINA _' , Canada is actively-. engaged in the Chinese potato- trade and this is how it came `about. Prior to the disturbances in North China, Japan was the principal supplier of pota'- ` toes to Hong Kong on account of her ability to offer produce at prices which were competitive even with supplies from nearby South China territories. From 1934 to 1937, Japan was credited with 65 per cent. of the potato trade. In the rst three months of 1938 there was I H _u,...I:.... * In imnnl-1`: from hrst three monmns u; Lauu uu..-., ..._.. a sharp decline in imports from Japan and increases in the shares of North, Middle and` South China.

His latest ambition is to attach a t.wo-way radio to his chair. ` colts weaning time in the fall are 1); given a gallon to a gallon and a half of skim milk daily when avail- ` able, in addition to their allow- ances of hay and grain. ht Legume hays .such as sweet clover icy I and alfalfa contain more minerals y( and protein than the grass hays, c< ' and are therefore superior. Mix- tures of grass and legume hays give better results than when either class of hay is fed alone. Low quality , grass hay and straw contain very , little protein or minerals and con- sequently these feeds are unsuited E 1 r `for feeding alone to young foals. 1 r ) 1 Oats is the standard grain feed C used for both horses and colts. The large percentage of hull in this grain makes it bulky, readily assim- ilateid, and hence a safe feed to employ. if other grains are used for colts they should only be in- \ 1 l cluded in the mixture in small amounts. For young horses with `good teeth there is very little ad- \'anta;.>;e to be gained by soaking, cooking or grinding oats. Where` llegume hay is being fed, oats alone is quite satisfactory as the grain feed. but where grass hay supplies the roughage there is an advantage in mixing bran and oats for young foals. With the better grades of roughages, only four to ve pounds of grain daily are required to be fed, but with low grade roughage larger allowances of grain arc ad- visable.
