The maiket opened very bIow and the buyers were bidding from a quarter to a half lower. Export buyers took care of a few load.s of heavy steers at from 5.50 to fi.75, with a few extra choice up to 6.00. Best butcher cattle brouxhl from 5.00 to 5.25; fair to (food from 4.50 to 6.00; common to medium 3.75 to 4.25. Good to choice baby beeves brouRht from (i.oO to 7.00, with those of medium to (jood (luality from 6.00 to 6.25. Blockers and feeders were very slow of sale. Choice butcher C0W.S sold at from 3.50 to 4.00; fair to good from 3.00 to 3.50; common to medium 2.50 to 2.75; canners and cutters 2.00 to 2.50.

Followinsr last week's sharp ad- vance in hofr prices, the market wag inclined to be alow, but salesmen were successful in sellinR Monday's hops on the basis of 8.75 for truck deliveries. The market closed weak and the prospects look lower for the balance of the week. As o correspondent to a daily puts It, there are scarcely no Communists in rural Canada; but there are times when ever a farmer "sees red." Semi-Pro. Team Lost Game To Proton 4-2 Fle.slierLoii's Semi -Pro entry went dowh to defeat for the second time this season when the Proton Red- wings turned them back by a 4-2 score on Monday night. Flesherton started out in glorious style and while the ice remained firm held the Proton team in their own end of the rink. The first line of Piper-Leavell-Baiiks made it hot for goalie Blackburn but groat goal lending mixed with some luck kept them off the score sheet un- til midway through the first i)eriod wjieu Piper banged one home. In short order Leavell put Flesherton Iwi) up when lie meed in to shove the puck into tJu; net as Blackburn tried to clear. In the second period Proton t<K)k the lead by scoring three fast goals but by this time the soft ice was telling on the light Flesherton forwards and slackened their pace. .\gain in the third period Flesherton carried the play but couldn't score and finally McCannel coasted down lo score and the game ended in Pro- Ion's favour 4-2. Proton: (ioal, Eldon Blackburn; de- fence, Hodgins and White; centre, P. .Sims; wings, H. Sims and McCannel; alternates, Earl Blackburn, Badgerow, Bannon, Hulliday, Wauchope, and Stainsby. Flesherton: Goal, A. Hopkins; de- fence, D. Hoi)kins, B. Carrothers; centre, B. Leavell; wings, M. Piper and .1. Banks; alternates, D. Morgan, L* Henderson, J. Hopkins and F. Graham. A COMPETENT SALESMAN If .vou would like to know what a man looks like when he doesn't seem to have any friends, just go to the next hockey game in your vicinity and i«ke a look at the referee. Three more prominent Soviet lead- ers have been calght in the Stalin purge. Communism, it is evident, can ne just as ungrateful as democracy in its treatment of prominent men. Three Wisnipcg prisoners charged with illegal possession of alcohol gave toothache as an excose. When they were fined $200 each, however, the pnin was transferred to their necks. Anyone who undertakes to sell any- thing to the public must be prepared to answer questions and answer them Well and intelligently. The salesman who can't tell the people the things they want to know about the articles he is selling is not likely to get any large trade. He may be very smiling and cordial, but if he has to keep answering "I don't know,*' he is not helping much to sell the goods. People have to do something more in stores than hand over goods and tell the prices and take the money. Very frequently there will be no money to take, if the salesman can't give the information he is expected to know, he would better begin studying the goods he is handling. Flesherton Won 7-3 Flesherton's senior hockey team took the fast Shelburne team to the tune of' 7-3 on Friday night in a Centre Grey League schedule game, and thus drew closer to a play-otF berth . Only six penalties were hand- ed out by Referee Singleton of Mark- dale, three to each team. Immediat- ely after the face-olT Boyd stick handled his way in on goalie Kayburn In the second period each teiim again scored twice, the first goal by Ross, followed by one from Smith, who played his best game of the sea- son as he patrolled his old familiar centre ice lane. Baechler put Dundalk in the lead again, but this was soon chopped down when the Patton-Boyd- McCulcheon combination drew goalie Sims out of the net and Patton eased the puck in. Phillips drew a penalty. The third period went scoreless and in the overtime Uun<lalk again went in the lead when Ferris, after making a catch, dropped the puck right on Acheson's stick, as if inviting him to score if he wished. Boyd came back fast and afU'r stickhandling his way through the entire team drove a hard shot past Sims that was impossible to stop, which ended the scoring after ten minutes of overtime had been played. Flesherton boys played excellent hockey all the way, with Bo.vd, Smith, Ferris and Johnson showing up ex- ceptionally well. Both forward lines clicked well, with the result that the scoring points were fairly evenly div- ided. Flesherton's last game in the schedule is in Chntsworth on Friday night and if they can win will he al- most sure of a play-oflf berth. READ THE "SMALL ADVTS". F. T.

T ? •T ? t T r Flesherton 5, Dindalk 5 Flesherton and Dundalk played a 6-6 tie game here Tuesday evening which was full of excitement. All the play was wide open from start to fin- ish, both teams travelling at a furious pace, which thrilled the large crowd to the tips of their toes. Acheson led olf with Dundulk's first goal after a pile up in front of the net and before many minutes had elapsed Copeland put Dundalk two u]). Flesherton came ] and Gorrell netted the rebound on a back strong and evened the count fine play. Shelburne came liack fast with goals by Gorrel on a. nice pass and Banks evened the count after a from Smith and one by McCutcheon hectic scramble in the Flesherton de- after Boyd had pulled Sims out. Two fence area. Boyd engineered a play penalties were handed out to Dundalk. and .scored on a solo effort after he had pulled the goaler to the side and shot into the empty net. Patton got credit for the next on a pass from Boyd. Play was lightning fast and the Flesherton forwards breaking up many Shelburne rushes. Paget finally heat Ferris cleanly on a pass from Saunders, and near the end of the period Smith put Flesherton out ahead by two goals when he scored from a face-off near the Shelburne net . Score 4-2 end of first round. In the second period Shelburne forced the play most of the time and were finally rewarded when McCauley counted with an assist to Saunders. Ferris played a great game in the Fle.«!herton net as he did everything but the "Big Apple" to stave off the Shelburne rushes. Midway through the third period McCutcheon scored when the Flesher- ton first line worked its way in on Raybum, Boyd and Patton receiving well-earned assists. Dargavel scored on a long shot from centre ice that fooled Raybum, and while Shelburne tore in to cut down the Flesherton lead, McCutcheon got his second in the period when he took a neat pa.ss from Boyd. End of inning and game, Flesherton 7, Sherburne 3. For this game Smith was moved from the Boyd-Patton line to team with Dargavel and Gorrel and was placed at centre ice, his old position last year when he lead the league in scoring honors. It worked well as he scored one goal and worked hard all night. McCutcheon teamed up well with Patton and Boyd, and although he has seen many winters in hockej' here, he was travelling just about as fast as of old. Flesherton's last scheduled game of the season will be played in Chats- worth this Friday night. They are a tough team to take on their own ice.

"Yes, Billy, 1 have some mince pies, but they're for company." He pondered this and then suggest- ed hopefully, "I came to make a little bit of a visit myself." j^<^♦♦^<MK'^^<^H♦♦♦♦<'^^♦^♦♦^♦^ Mortgage Sale Under and by virtues of the Powers of Sale contained in a certain mort- gage, which will be produced at the time of sale, there will be otfered for .sale by George E. .
