Wednesday, Jan. 18, 1939. THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE Live Stock Report (I)y Dunn & Levack. Toronto) There was u liberal supply of cattle for Sionday's market, and with lower reports from outside markets, the trade was easier, some classes selling from 16 to 25 cents below last week's sales. There was a limited demand for weighty steers, and vmy few brought over the 7 cent mark, while choice butchers sold at a general top of 6.50. The bull trade was strong on account of the order trade for the United States. Choice weighty steers brought from 6.50 to 7.00 with a few at 725; fair to good from 5.75 to 6.40. Choice butcher steers and heifers sold at from 6.25 to 6.50. fair to good from 6.75 to 6.25, common to medium 5.00 to 5.50. Choice baby beeves held steady at from 8.00 to 9.50, others dou-nward to 5.60. Choice butcher cows sold at from 4.25 to 4.50 with a few fancy at 5.00, fair to good from 8.75 to 4.25, common to medium .3.00 to 8.50, canners and cutters, 2.60 to 2.00. Choice butcher bulls were in good demand at from 5.00 to 5.25, heavies and bolognas 4.75 to 6.00, light kind 4.25 to 4.50. Heavy .supplies of lambs arrived from Alberta and the market was very slow choice kind selling mostly at 8.75 with only a few at 9.00. Choice butcher sheep were steady at from 4.50 to 5.00. The calf market was strong and prices higher, choice from 10.00 to 10.60 with a few extras at U cents, fair to good from 9.00 to 10., comnion to medium 6.00 to 8.00. Following the sharp declines in last week's hog market, the trade was steady today, packers bidding 8.25 to 8..35, with most of the hogs going to smaller wholesalers at 8.50. The prospects for the balance of the week look uncertain. It will be well to market hogs before they become too heavy as the present discounts are severe on butcher and heavy hogs. Medical Test For MotoriiU? Principles Of Grading The grading of farm products is based on the principle Jthat it is sound business to classify live stock in such a way that the consumer will be able to recognize and purchase quality products, and that the price premium which the consumer will pay for the better grades should be returned to the producer of them. Practice has proven the value of the theory involved in the grading princ- iple. Grading activities have been a tremendous incentive to quality pro- duction, with restiltant price benefit to producers. An item in a weekly newspaper read: ''The ladids of ithe Helping Hand Society enjoyed a swap social on Friday evening. Everybody had brought something they didn't need. Many of the ladies were accompanied by their husbands.'' Attorney-General Gordon D. Conant said a recommendation that all applicants for motor vehicle drivers licenses be required to have a med- ical certificate guaranteeing their fit- ness to drive, will be discussed at the provincial traffic conference to be held in Toronto this month. Many other recommendations also will be discussed. They came from various police chiefs, safety and auto organizations, as a result of a re- quest by Mr. Conant for suggestions to reduce the traffic toll throughout tiie province. It has also been recommended that every driver should be required to produce a certificate of his fitness every five years, as well as pass a written examination based on the Highway Traffic Act. The recommendation also urges that drivers, convicted of reckless driving, operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor or narcotics, criminal negligence or man- slaughter, should be forced to pro- duce a medical certificate and pass a written examination before being allowed to drive after their conviction. Then there was the announcement made from the neighboring pulpit on Sunday that "on Tuesday evening the young people would present a play 'Home They Brought Her Warrior Dead' â€" in three parts. ptocK laKingoaiel $ OUR BIG STOCK TAKING SALE COMENCES FRIDAY, JANUARY 13, 1939. % ♦ IN GOING THROUGH OUR STOCK WE FIND MANY LINES OF MERCHAN- ♦♦♦ ♦f DISE THAT MUST BE SOLD REGARDLESS OF COST.
