THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE I â-  â€" ^..â€" ^^â€" Tâ€" â€" ^ . â- J.L 11 Wednesday, February 2, 1933 4 !Wi t |.=.* l;,^^-* * ' * 4 ^ >• 1 i â-  . tt * VICTOR IA CO RNERS Mr. Fred Linton is in charge of the sei-vice station as Mr. and Mrs. R. Lin- ton and Peggy were called to Owen Sound to the death bed of Mrs. Lin- ton's sister Mrs. Harold Cook of Bar- row Bay. Mrs. Cook was 23 years of age and leaves to mourn her passing her young husband, father and mother Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Fenwick, and five sisters, Mrs. Clarence Biggar, of Owen Sound, Mrs. Russel Linton of Proton Station, Misses Edith, Muriel and El- nore at home and one brother Mr. W. Fenwick of East Linton. The funeral was held on Monday afternoon from St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church at Owen Sound, interment in the mausol- eum. Mrs. Wm. Guest of Maine, U. S. A. visited Mr. Jas. Best recently. We wonder what the rural districts are coming to as there are so many deserted farms, for example between Dundalk and Victoria Comers. In a distance of five miles there averages only four people per mile who own and operate their farms. The other farms are deserted and rented to oth- ers. In a few cases people are living in the houses, but not operating the farm. It is said that many other dis- tricts are similar. No wonder it is difficult for correspondents to hunt up news for the papers. PRICEVILLE VANDELEUR The annual congregational meeting waa held in the church last Sunday afternoon, when reports were pre- eejited from the Board of Stewards, Sunday School, Ladies' Aid and C G. !• T., all of which were adopted.

The address, based on the text "Ye must be born again", and prayer was offered by Miss Irene Dinsmore. Spec- ial music and hymns were provided by the choir for the occasion but only a small crowd was on hand on account of the bad weather. A number from here gathered at the L. O. L. Hall on Friday evening and presented Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Ped- lar, who were married last fall, with many useful gifts. Mrs. Jos. Williams and son Joey and daughter Mrs. Elwood Partridge and husband of Rock Mills attended the funeral of Mrs. Harold Cook on Monday in Owen Sound. The news of the death of Mrs. Cook formerly Miss Delmar Fenwick of this place came as a great shock to her many friends here.

Snell occupying the chair, conducting the opening exer- cises and the general business of the meeting. The convenor of the pro- gram committee had charge of the meeting and outlined the work for the year as planned by her committee. .\mong the interesting numbers will be a grandmothers' meeting during the summer months. Mrs. Kennedy, assiatted by some members, served lunch at the close of the meeting. Osprey Farmers' Milling Co., Ltd., held their annual meeting here on Tuesday of last week, when there was only a small gathering of shareholders present. ' Earnings of the mill paid 10 per cent in dividends in 1937. The same directors were electeed for an- other year and the auditors' report showed a small amount of cash on hand in the bank, with a large credit account. A number of the share- holders think the credit accounts should be less or, plainly speaking, should be collected if they can be. The credit account is |1860.00. Osprey Telephone System was held in the Orange Hall, on Wednesday of last week with a good number of the subscribers present. The auditors' report was adopted and an acclama- tion was given to Mr. Leslie Poole, the retiring commissioner, was about all the business transacted. Of course there was considerable discussion about extending the System farther south in the township, the resetting of poles on the oldest lines of the System, the lineman'* salary, etc., but nothing definite was done. There Is a small deficit of something over one hundred dollars on the System. Everytwdy's credit is good however.. The fact that there is owing about $425.00 for long distance tolls and rentals is lovely, but remember, we had an extra $10.00 to pay once before to keep the System solvent. As re- gards the long distance tolls we are told by one of the auditors that the township will pay over the tolls to the ; System, as well as box premiums, if i they accumulate as fast as they say ' they have since last .August 21st, at ' the rate of $75. per month the bill will j be around 11,000.00. However, a num- ' ber of the subscribers think it would ; be best to collect rents in advance and \ long distance tolls at least every three j months, instead of them being collect- j ed by the township every twelve months. Mr. James Long held an auction sale on January 21st, with Mr. George Duncan as auctioneer. Prices realized were good and everything sold. Live Stock Report (By Dunn & Levack, Toronto) Although Monday's supplies of cattle were not very heavy, the market opened slow and very little business was done until after the noon hour. According to reports, the dressed meat market waa very slugg- ish last week and prices on all meats, especially beef and lamb, were lower. A number of export buyers from the Old Country were on the market and purchased about 300 steers, but they also were very difinite in stating that prices had to be lower to meet the trade overseas. A few choice heavy steers sold at 6.00, but practically all the good to choice ranged from 5.25 to 5.75; fair to good weighty steers sold from 5.00 to 5.25; common to medium 4.00 to 4.75. In the butcher section, choice steers and heifers ranged from 5.00 to 5.25; fair to good from 4.50 to 5.00; common to medium 3.75 to 4.25. Stockers and feeders were very slow of sale, excepting for a few choice of selected breed and quality, which sold at from 4.00 to 4.25. Baby beeves held steady, fair to good selling from 5.00 to 6.50, with a few extra choic« up to 7.00. Choice butcher cows brought from 3.75 to 4.00; h«»vy fat cows 3.40 to 3.65; fair to good from 2.50 to 3.00; canners and cutters 2.00 to 2.25. Choice butcher bulls brought from 3.75 to 4.25; bolognas from 3.50 to 3.75; heavy bulls 3.75 to 4.00. In the small meats, the calf trade opened active and steady, due to s good export demand to the United States. Choice calves sold at from 10.00 to 11.00; fair to good from 8.50 to 9.50; common to medium 5.50 to 760. The lamb trade was very slow and sales were finally made at 8.00 for choice ewes, with those of medium quality at lower prices accordingly. Best light butcher sheep brought from 4.50 to 5.00. Monday's hog market was slow, but salesmen were successful in securing from 8.75 to 8.85 for truck deliveries. Weather conditions affected the roads, which had considerable to do with causing moderate supplies of hogs. If the runs become heavy prices are al- most sure to work lower, as the outlet of Canadian pork to the Old Country Is not profitable at the present prices. •♦• I I I I f * 1 1 II I I > » ♦♦♦»♦♦♦< t « I tJ I t ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦4< I I I I I I * I I > TORONTO TO HOLD REUNION ^EVERSHA.M RESIDENTS IN A reunion of Fevershara old boys and girls residing in Toronto will be held in the Central Y.M.C.A. on Tuesday.
