FINDLAY Phone 34 r 3. Furnrture and Funeral Director. FLESHERTON Do all our readers know that it is the legal duty of anybody who finds an article of any kind to advertise the same at once ? Some people fancy that by holding a thing without say- ing anything about it for an indefinite period, such an article becomes their own property, if for some reason the lawful owner has not advertised his loss. That is a wTong idea. It is only after an article has been legally advertised, and the owner fails to turn up, that the finder has the tight of possession. GIRLS.

Owing to the increased valt|^ of live stock the present insurance rate was considered too low and was therefore raised to 10 cents per head on cattle and three cents per head on all other classes of live stock. The shipping rate for the present year will be cattle 40 cents per cwt.; Sheep 60 cents • hogs, F. and W., 56 cents, which was a raise of five cents a head on sheep and all other stock the same as last year. The insurance fund was reduc- ed during the year by $33.33 and at present stands at $144.60. Another important change in the by-laws was made when, at the re- quest of Mr. Spofford, who was re- engaged as shipper, the pro-rating of the statements will be done in the head office of the U.F. Co-operative Live Stock Dept., Toronto. A change in the method of handling and purchasing of supplies was also made, Mr. Spofford taking over the work. He will always try to have on hand a supply at the store room at the Park House, Flesherton, of sugar, salt, flour and feeds of all kinds. Mr. Thos.
