WiaDNBSDAY, MAECH 28, 1034 THS. PIvESWERTON ADVANCE Vu>8 Flock if Hens The cold weather of the put wintoi does not 8c«m to have intorferred with the laying energy of a flock of ^rred Rock hens owned by Mr. Wes Smith of Rock Mills. All winter this flock of 65 hens has not failed to lay less than 50 eggs each day. In fact it was only on th« coldest day ia, February that they reached this lower level. It is flock.s like this one that materially assist in talcing the red ink out of the farmer's ledgei * when the price of eggs remains ai hitrh as it did most of th« past wint- er. Th« young man called his girl's mother an old hen, and she has been laying for him ever since. Mapjie Syrup in Toronto I - Tcronti residents can now secure high class Grey County syrup, made by Walter Akdtt of Flesherton, by phoiypg Grover 3470 and leaving their orders, to be delivered in due time, either by the quart or gallon.

Owing to the size of the county it has been impossible for Agricultural Representative T. Stewart Cooper to hold meetings earlier. The roads also have delayed matters. At all meetings a few other matters of vital importance are dealt with, in addition to the warble fly. local and Personal Two Flesherton curling rinks, skipp- ed by G. B. Welton and G.
