BLAKELEY Merchant Tailor THE F L E S H K K f C JS A 1) V AN U R THE Heslierton Advance W. II.THUltSTON OH, THOSE PHEASANTS ! The Advance is now informed tljat the Department of Game and Fisheries, which is running- a pheas- ant hatchery at the Hu^enia hydro pond, intends to supply settings of the eggs to members and friends for the purpose of more extensive ' production. As the officials have I contended that it requires an ex- | pert to care for pheasants, it is i probable that it will be found nec- ,essary to send an expert along with the eggs to see that thi?y are thoroughly hatched and that those who receive them do not us.' them for breakfast food. Give us lots of pheasants at two cocks tor a five dollar license and we'll all fare high on the " dear " little things. Down in Kent, Essex and Lambton this ; is the rate announced for one day's j hunting this fall. The pheasant department of the present govern- ment must thin!: that the sportsmen of Ontario are a set of fjullihles. BARCUS IS WILLIN' The Drury Government withdrew 'its Redistribution Bill last \vcc;k 'after an extremely liv-.-ly bKvkaile ' campaign by opposing forces, and Mr. Drury has decided to fjo to the country in June. In conjunction with this decision Mr. Drury also announced that Ii2 u-.is willing to form an ;ifter elec- tion coalition \\itri the Reform or Labor party or both.

N. Cooper of Meaford lo stand for the nomi- nation of standard bearer for Kast (irey against Col. Cannichael. Mr. Cooper onsented. lie is an insurance man and is well known here. Although Artemesia and Fli'shertou havu been divorced from Kast (irey, still the people here have a fatherly eye on that riding- and many of them would like to see Mr. Cooper in the field, believ- ing 1 be could win. The lic:4 will be the next sub- j -ct on weather program for us to kick about. o o o o Talk about Premier Drury being " mum" on important questions .of public interest ! lion. G. Howard Ferguson has no right to talk what- ever ! There has been abundant discussion on Hon. Ferguson's stand, as head of tha Conservative party, on the liquor question, and if he knows where he is at he keeps it under his hat exceedingly well. Speak up, Mr. Ferguson, and tell us all about it. o o o o The Meaford Mirror gives out a challenge to the world to bat the record of a Meaford han in the size of its eg*;s. A Black Minorca hen laid one that measured 73^ inches around its waist, 9 1-4 inches up and down and weighed 5^ ounces. We have abundant faith in the laying possibilities of our Flesherton hens and the above record can be broken without a doubt. Now, all together, hens, and let us see what you can do ' Found $5 Bill A gentleman in town spied something odd looking in a snow bank by the side- walk mi morning last week.

McTavish & Son FLEHERTON J A Musk rat Farm How many rnuskrats can you raise to an acre '! is a unction that wuuM puzzle most fanners to answer. With most of them it would be |>rctty much gucss- \voik. However, there is one farmer in Venpnii who hu figured it out to his own satisfaction and. wh.U'a more, h:'8 shown his faith in the returns to be Ir.td from such a crop for he has purchased loo acres for a nuiskrnl farm, This farmer is J. W. Gossling and his purchase comprises swamp lots 7 and 8 on the 12th concession, across this runs the Swnley Crccli (or Muskrat as it is sometimes called) and near it is the Willow Creek. Cmulittona are ideal for muskrat farming, says Mr. (li'ssling. On farms that ;u'c closed as many as 50 rats to the acre are raised, but Mr. Cos- slmy figures that he can get from 10 to 115 to the acre. At the present time there arc enough rats on the two lots lo stock the farm if no trapping is done fiT a year, says the proprietor. He will leave the rats undisturbed this year and intends to make it interesting for any poachers who get utter them. If Mr Oossling can get even 10 rats j an acre oil hia farm every year it will be ' a [Myiny p; ."position a., rat sl.ins are worth fiMiu $1.75 to $2 00 a.'picce.
