months shows that premier hepburn lost no time in putting his preelection promises into effect in this regard the liberal government is unique irrespective of the soundness of those policies it is the first govern ment in ontarios history that ever started out to implement its cam paign pledges within a tew days of taking office as to the value ana practicability of those policies com petent political observers definitely state that the answer is in the future it is too early for the voicing of conclusions the rapidity with which the government launched its investiga tions into boards and commissions and other branches of the civil ser vice as well as the civil service it self left many citizens gasping for breath the liberals were not con forming to the practices of past governments the hepburn axe was wielded with wholehearted vigour and those described by the premier as supernumeraries found themselves out of jobs perhaps no other phase of its work to date lias aroused such protest from certain sections as has the firing of govern ment employees it seemed as though the government was bent on throwing appointees of previous governments out of jobs to make way for liberal supporters but clear thinking observers who were able to divorce themselves from political partisanship in weighing and analysing the hepburn policies admitted that economy in govern ment was the paramount necessity in these times and thai admini strative expenses a staggering amount could only be reduced by tern measures another fact which has been overlooked by those who regard the new government with sceptical eyes is that political patronage has not loomed large on the horizon liberals have received government jobs it is true but the patronage has been on a minor scale so that rumblings of discon tent have been heard from within the party ranks but with economy as its major objective the government is keep ing its eye on the dollars and cents there is a tremendous unemploy ment relief bill to pay and the cost of meeting the needs of the unem ployed presents a serious problem a housecleaning was overdue when premier hepburn and his colleagues took over queens park and there is no doubt that there is still plenty to do the premier plunged into his program with no delay he launch ed a succession of commission in quiries and probes that disclosed more than one reason why a long- suffering public had finally turned the previous government out of office gross negligence and extrava gance and poor business methods were revealed in the inquiries into the abitibi canyon purchase the temiskaming and northern ontario railway the provincial air service the liquor control board the niagara falls parks commission and the ontario athletic commission just what success will attend premier hepburns efforts to peg the provincial debt secure lower interest rates cope with brodie lambs real champions canadian exhibitor reaches the top the chicago dally drovers journal of december 3 contains a lengthy eulogy for james brodie and his car of prize shropshire sheep which swept the boards at chicago stock show we here reproduce it so that our readers who are mostly interested in this feat of a local farmer may understand just what a great accomplishment mr brodie met with the journal says the brodie title seeking south- downs arrived this year during the last dozen years c j brodie stouff ville ontario canada has been showin g one and sometimes two carloads of southdown lambs in the car lot fat lamb division these brodie lambs have always been a bothersome lot when the awards were made sometimes in the past they have arrived at the reserve grand champion post but this year is the first time they have been declared the grand champion carload of lambs at this exposition one time several years ago a load of these brodie lambs sold for a higher price than the grand champion load of that particular year the carload of lambs showed by mr brodie this year were all south down wethers selected from the produce of his 300 breeding ewes they were true and uniform in type some experienced breeders thought them to be the most outstanding carload of grand champions ever exhibited because they were so uniform in type conformation size and finish they were exceedingly deep in their twists their average weight as they came from the car was s4 pounds per lamb a few doubted whether they were the most outstanding grand champions of all past shows at the interna tional but all agreed they were among the very best that had gone down in history as grand champions michigan crops win praise another group of lambs that were keyed for the occasion and flawless in fitting so far as carloads go was the reserve grand champions ex hibited by the michigan sheep feed ing co and fitted by the michigan agricultural college here the southdowns and all their blood was routed this was a carload of pure bred shropshires out of 18 different michigan flocks they weighed 89 pounds off the car and were a beautiful lot that judge turned them down for grand champions because they were a little less uniform in finish and size than the brodie southdowns this reserve grand champion load was fed 70 days on a grain ration consisting of cracked corn oats and linseed oil meal the first week the grain ration consisted of only 15 per cent of corn but at the end of 40 days corn made up go per cent of the grain ration the ration was not less than 5 per cent oil meal or more than 7 per cent during the feeding period the iambs this year gained a half pound per lamb per day such gains always insure a firm hard finish canadian way of feeding the brodie lambs were fed as all good canadian feeders would do it they were started on feed early in september oats was the starting grain it was gradually replaced with barley and canadian field peas the last 40 days the grain ration consisted of barley four parts and field peas one part such a
