Recent advices from the Uiitish market criticize our supplies on the scDie of undeifinish in a large percentage of bacon sides, as indicated by Hoftness and flabbiness. This soft flabby bacon is most likely the liroduct of underfinishe<l hogs, of which there are con-siderable numbers being marketed at yards and plants in Canada at the present time. The lemedy lies with the producer in hold- ing back unfinished hogs. In most cases, another week or so on feed would' put on the finish so necessary for the making of firm bacon. All hogs of bac-on and select weights should be properly finished at their weights. Underfinish is a.s detri- mental as overfinish, and in this case is a very serious obstacle to et-'orts being made to popularize ("anadiin bacon with the British consumer.

A large number of farmers who ai-e out of hay are feeding straw and other roughage due to lack of fund.s to purchase hay. There is still a fairly large supply of hay unsold in the Ottawa valley a. id northern Ontario. It i.s selling at prices as low as $7 per ton delivered to the car iit Ottawa valley point*. There is also a fair quantity of good hay a- vailable in the Bruce peninsula. In most other localities of the province there is either a shortage or barely sufficient for local needs, but deliver- ed jirices are regarded as too high to entice farmers to buy. Churent prices ex-tract Toronto are: for iW 2 Timothy and mixtui<es $14.- 50 to $15.60; No. 2 SI2 ti $13; wheat straw $10; oat straw $8.50 to $9.50 DAHLIA ROOTS FOR SALE Dahlia roots, named varieties, 20^- each or 6 for $1.00.â€" Fred Karstedt Priceville.
