BREEDING BETTER HENS There could be no better reply to the critics of the federal breeding policy as to the real value such work has proven during the past ten years or more than the record of average egg production as sup- plied by the official egg laying con- tests conducted at the Experimental Farms throughout Canada by the Dominion Department of Agricul- ture. In 1920 6,010 birds produced an average of 122.1 eggs each, in the ensuing ten years this average rose steadily year by year until last year, when it rcached 178 eggs per bird. This increase in average pro- duction has been brought about al- most entirely through careful breed- ing on the part of specialized breeders whose pens have been entered for successive years in the egg laying contests. When the flock average gets up over the 150 egg point it means profits for the flock owner, ' BETTER QUALITY LAMBS The run of lambs now coming onto the eastern market shows a decided improvement in quality over receipts during the latter part of July, according to the Markets Intelligence Service of the Domin- ion Live Stock Branch. Many of the lambs coming onto the market a month ago were weighing less than 40 pounds and when dressed yielded a carcass often weighing under 20 pounds. This kind of lamb was simply not wanted on the market and, of course, drove prices to very low levels. Lambs now coming onto the market are weigh- ing around 75 pounds, showing both breeding and finish. These are proving popular, and to strengthen the market many drovers and ship- ping clubs are returning lambs which weigh under 70 ppunds from i, 2d the local station for "further fattens ing. Save you time to read this about the BD a PRIFSS 4 ARE YOU PUSHING--OR JUST HILE thousands of Canadians are out of employment -- and many businesses are at 2 standstill . . . and Governments are cour- ageously planning to make work to relieve coming winter's distress-- there is another--and brighter -- side of the picture. The problem is being tackled -- somebody is "doing something about it". Better times are nearer than just-round-the-corner -- they are in sight! For every one person who is unemployed -- there are scores who have jobs-- pay envelopes -- salaries -- incomes -- stipends -- dividends. Saving deposits in Canada are greater by $40,000,000 than a year ago. Canadian Firms will in September pay out over $15,000,000 in Dividends. And even though many firms are not piling up the profits of 1928-9, thousands of factories are working. Stores are buying--railways are hauling--places of amusement are thronged -- radios shout from every house. Somebody has money--somebody is spending. The old 'bus of business is near the top of the long hill of Depression. It needs a strong, concerted push to the top. But who is to do the pushing? Certainly not the unemployed -- they can't do it. It is for those who are in jobs--in positions--in office. In almost every line of merchandise today's prices are lower -- values greater -- than at any time in the last 20 years. Today is the purchaser's oppor- tunity --an opportunity to secure those things you need now--or will need in the near future. A New York Bank is reported as advising its 250,000 depositors to "reserve against emergencies -- at least six months' salary, "and with the surplus" make careful purchases of things you want for permanent use, while prices remain low". This Bank also says-- "In our opinion the millions of savings and thrift depositors in this country have it in their power to change the whole aspect of industrial and trade conditions." sitting tight We make no comment--we quote it only as an evidence of the Bank's courage to make such 2 proposal. The fact is, if commodities are bought, someone must receive wages for making them, . . . someone thus has money to spend--has money to buy things. When commodities are bought, someone must make them--someone must receive wages . . . (well, there we are, right in the circle again). The two busy B's of Buying and Business must be twins! Did you ever stop to figure out the wages you create when you buy a piece of upholstered furniture (for instance). Who cuts the lumber--who makes the glue--the springs--the fabrics--the moss--the fibre --the felt--the cotton and silk materials. Men and women! Who carts all these to the factory -- who makes the mbtor trucks -- the truck's tires--who supplies the gas--who serves out the lubricants. Who prints the catalogue--who photographs the chester- * field--who makes the paper--ink--and who binds it. Who sells the Furniture to the Retailer -- types the order. Who makes the dress the typists wages buy. Who sells the machine she uses-- ribbons -- and repaits. Who sorts the letter in the Post Office --delivers it--. Who sells the furniture to you--wha delivers it. (We'll be mentioning motor car tires again, if we don't watch out!). Who makes the sales slip--pencil--and tags--the string--paper--crates. Who pays rent -- employs window dressers and window cleaners. It makes one dizzy to think of all the people and wages involved in the purchase of any com- modity . . . artists and artizans -- managers and mechanics--drivers and drovers--clerks and clergy- men. Multiply by ten thousand transactions and the total PUSH is staggering in its force. Surely those who are able -- those who possess the money -- those %ho have steady employment should, RIGHT NOW, get-out-of-the-bus, and PUSH! \ So if you need any Commodity or Service--and the money to purchase it--buy NOW -- and PUSH!
