You may not be aiv-are that it has resulted in consumption on a basis of 8.5 lbs. per person per year for Canara, while in the U.S.A., where it has been sold for 75 years, it is less than 6 sbs. per year. It n^resents a serious threat to the farm income â€" and every pound of the cheap butter substitute eaten makes the ataation just so much worse. Farmers across Canada have decided to do something about it. The Dairy Farmers of Canada have undertaken to raise a fund to advertise butter and other dairy products â€" and do our hest to get the gospel of butter to all consumers. The milk and cream producers in all I provinces of Canada have agreed to share in financing this program. This is being done on the truly democratic basb that if EVERYBODY con- tributes, a large .fund can be raised with a very small contri- | bntioq from lany individual producer. Thus it has been planned to ask all buyers of milk and cream to deduct 1 cent per lb. of butterfat from all' purchases in the month of June and forward it to the treasurer of the advertising fund to be used to increase the demand for our pro- duct. This, in an indirect way, will help maintain prices at the farm. W:e are asking you, as an individuial producer, to back us up with the few cents deduction from your cream cheques dur- ing June. Of course, this is democratic and voluntary, and we are counting on your full co-operation and support in making the program comuletely successful. Let's do iit together. Thank you. â€"THE ONTARIO CREAM PRODUCERS' .MARKETING BOARD James Gifford, Chairman Flesherton Creamery THE HOxME OF SERMCE & S.\TISF.\CT10N Phone 66 FLESHERTON Angus Avis, Manager a direction to cut him off in front.

Before the tractor had made one round of the field, a wolf came out again. He was shot I A drive is to be nuide for the others. "If I had been driving horses, I wouldn't have got away from them," Robert, who is 17, said of his en- counter with the four wolves when he was alone. "I yelled at them, 'try- inig to frighten them away, but they kept following me." G.
