subsantlal increase is prosperity about bradford district is looked for by rcevo d nolan following a conference hetweon representatives from west gwilllmbury council and hon hugh stewart minister of public works at ottawa when a scheme to reclaim 8000 acres of rich marsh land in west gwilllm bury and enable 100 farmers near hero to engage in market gardening was approved reeve nolan explained the cost of draining the land was so great that it would hardly bo used for growing wheat or oats and the ordinary farm crops it would be used mainly 1 think for growing vegetables as the land is very fertile and conductive to market gardening he said reeve e g evans of west gwill lmbury stated he thought the project would aid the unemployment situation incidentally putting land under cultivation

usual process which could not func tion after the removal of one teat a rubber tub is being inserted in to the bag to relieve the animal of her burden ot milk but whether she will ever be of any use again as a milker only time will reveal the cow spent tbe night in the barn and how the teat could have been severed by accident is hard for the owner to imagine an examina tion ot the wound indicates

announcement tnat will be read with keen delight by most everyone excepting the bread profiteer and we havent any of them in stouffville mr ambrose stover the local baker announces that he has reduced the price of bread to 9 cents for the small loaf and 18 cents tor the large three pound loat flour has dropped in price and some people wonder at the price of bread remaining stationarylt should be remembered that the baker has to buy his flour in advance and when a slight drop in flour takes place it would not warrant a drop of a cent a loaf in bread however the substantial reduction in wheat and flour now allows the drop in bread prices the cost of flour is not the great est part of a loaf ot bread wages and overhead expenses form the major portion these have not gone down any since the peak ot war days and until they do the five cent loaf will not return tjje recent cut announced by mr stover applies to all retail sales whether over the counter or off the wagons aged native resident
