its january session which lasted a full tinee- weeks the mem bers pull down 8 per day which is mote than most of them would earn at home in the winter mouths but then the salaries would be easily paid if only the council could curb expenditures otherwise the tax rate is advanced again this year by one mill which places an added burden on many townships the reeves and deputy reeves from this section spoke on different occasions against additional unwarranted ex penditures and we are glad to note this the efforts of york county councillors who are favorable to assist in paying the deficit on the metropolitan railway will meet with little favor on the east side of the county in this locality if the citi zens of richmond hill thornhill aurora and other places are anxious to continue the service why do they not come out and shoulder the operating loss farmers and otheis on the east side of the county derive no benefit from the railway and have to be content with busses and with no service of any kind most of the winter still their money is tc used to try and force the city to run the metropolitan while half the people of the county dont care a snap whether it is run or not bui they are concerned about their money being used to fight the city of toronto which step- the council agrees to take the son of hon james donnelly of bruce county has been released from prison after serving ten

milktesting pays there is sound common sense in the suggestion of a farmer keep ing five good cows in place of fifteen just cows the case is cited of a farmer who tired of the work en tailed by keeping fifteen cows and who reduced his herd to five good ones the surprising thing was that the net returns from the five were greater than they had been from the fifteen this should prove conclusively the value in the use of weeding out the nonpaying members of the herd by milktest ing the local department of agri culture stands ready at all times to advise the farmer in these mat ters new hog grading rules the new hoggrading laws which came into effect last september have resulted in some confusion among the less well informed breeders and shippers the new qualifications are as

except that the minimum weight is now set at 190 lbs weigted off car the second grade of bacon hogs or bacons must weigh from 170 to 220 pounds off car the first grade ofj the nonbacon class is known at butchers and its weight range runs from 150 to 230 pounds weigh ed off car all hogs of smooth flesh ing and finish not conforming to bacon standard are included in this class the old shop grade has been entirely removed and hogs under 150 lbs are known as lights or feeders and requirements for killers are filled from the feeder grade m protecting cattle the stockman must he perpetu ally on the
