The producer himself is frequently uncertain as to the sétua}-cogt of production when the various factg, influencing costs have been sc- cot for. Indeed the charges against young pigs at six weeks of age, where the maintenance of the dam is properly charg: ed and where present feed prices apply, here no cheap bi-product or refuse is 'ailable, ans' particularly where only one litter per year per sow is raised, is greater than many swine growers suppose. The following figures are available from swine breeding operations at the Experi- mental Farms System and may throw some light on the question, To arrive at {the cost of young piga the feeding costs jof mot only the dam but also the. grand jdam are necessary. In other words the jfull maintenance cost of the young sow [together with her milking period charges, [should be figured to arrive at the cost of the first litter.

A Comparison of Costs Then und Now Several years ago at the Ontario Agri cultural College it was estimated -- that where all incidental feeding, maintenance and breeding charges were considered, young pigs could be raised to six weeks at 4 cost of $1.27 each with un average liter of sx und one half pigs. Meal wax charged at the rate of $20,00 per ton; skim-milk, $3.00 per ton; and roots $2.00. Present day prices would be $50.00; $4.00 und $3.00 respectively ut the lowest estimate and woukl explain the fuct that the fore: going figures are so much higher thun the Guelph findings which were practically similar to those shown at the Central Ex perimental Furm at that time.

Major Menzies had forward. ed bis resignation some months ago, but the congregation was unwilling to accept it without making an endeavor to have him withdraw it. Further correspondence took place, und, seizing the opportunity afforded by his furlough, Major Menzies decided to come to Whitby, The meeting on Monday night was large and enthusiastic. There was an expression of the opinion previously voiced that the church was anxious. to have the pustor reconsider his resignation, Major Menzies, however, was firm in his inion that it was the wiser course that it should. be accepted. 'The' cireumutances were such that he hud no intimation of what length of time he would be absent, and be desired that the Church should be in a position to appoint a permanent min- inter.
