Thurston & Son, Proprietors KIMBtRLEY The hunters have been enjoying the four days of deer hunting and have , ecured six fine deer. To show they arc by no means scarce or afraid a .buck and a doe wandered into the village on Sunday and then headed for the rocks. We hope the govern- ment does not give another chance to exterminate the antlered beauties as we like to see them and don't mind the bit of feed they eat. On Friday night the community gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs S. S. Burritt and presented Mr. and â- Mrs. N'orman Burritt with several gifts, including a wicker chair, a mag- azine stand, a table cloth and several other articles.

PRICEVILLE BEAUTY PARLORS FOR DAIRY COWS An important step in clean milk production is to clip the udders, hips, and flanks of the cows, thus making the daily brushing much easier and more effective. Clipping of the tail head, net:k and shoulders adds to th« appearance of the cows, and aids i; getting rid of lice, which will multiply quickly at this time if not promptly eradicated. A good wet or powdei shampoo repeated in ten' days time will do the trick.

They bear a double oros.'!, for In addition to physical suTerlnSi poverty stares them In the face. There is one disease most dreaded Lv this class. It is consumption, which, fostered by their mode or life, preys upon them. Nourishins food, fresh air, rest, the only known cure. Is bevond their means. Wliat then l3 to be done? There l.-i no alternative. They must be helped. The Toronto and Muskoka Hospi- t:ils foi- Consumptives with their new buildinss, can give better ser- vice now than ever before, their only handicap being lack ot suffi- cient funds.
