Grey and Bruce counties come in for their share of mention in the newscast. The Advance was men- tioned twice in a recent broadcast and on Simday our two neighboring editors had quotations from their columns. The news from these papers depicts the rural life of the province and is proving a popular broadcast. • • » • Flesherton's main streets were fairly well denuded of their high banks of snow after the recent re- cord-breaking snow fall. It is a fine thing to have the snow taken away from our streets, but the question has been asked whether we can afford this luxury of clean streets. Many claim that with the large deficit against the village the Council should observe the strictest economy in its work. Mr. Kobt. Knox attended the fun- em 1 on Friday, of the late Wm.

While there are still a few who chal- lenge this statement, it is generally conceded to contain more truth than poetry. The lesson which we in Can- ada, and particularly in Ontario should learn from this fact is that the prevention of our own democratic institutions and principles, and keep- ing up our civilian morale should be one of our major objectives. United States had developed mag- netic mines in 1925, and we esteem our neighbor the more when reading this added note, "It was decided not to use them."

SHIPPING FEVER or HEMORRHAGIC SEPTICEMIA (Continued from last week) PREVENTION â€" If hemmorhagic septicemia is sus- pected, call a veterinary. Do not delay until many of the pigs are dead. The only way in which the disease can be halted is by injection with serum. This should be done only by a veterinary. The cost per pig is in- sigTificant compared with the possible losses. Septi- cemia is a DESTROYER. If pigs are properly fed and cared for, kept reason- ably clean, with sanitary pens, the likelihood of any infection such a septicemia developing is lessened. It is particularly important to have good ventilation and dry quarters. Flssherton'^PIaniiig Mill H. A. McCauIey, Prop.
