ARMSTRONG CORK & INSULATION CO., LIMITED MONTREAL TORONTO WINNIPEG Canadian History by the Pocketful Not to suggest “cramming”, but the nearest thing we know to a “royal road” to Canadian history comes in our pocket-sized Canadian History Readers. These are convenient little brochures—one hundred titles in all—cover¬ ing pathfinders, heroes, heroines, comrades of the Cross, eminent Canadians and fathers of the Dominion, all by recognized authorities and covering various phases of Canadian history from the days of early discovery to the present. While the readers center largely in outstanding characters, the life and work of these folk are thrown on a background which brings the period they lived in intimately and interestingly before one. These booklets, readable in half-an-hour, may be used at odd moments and will contribute a wonderful amount of Canadian history. A few sug¬ gested titles follow: “Lord Strathcona” by H. A. Kennedy. “The Building of the C. P. R.” by H. A. Kennedy “Tecumseh” by Lloyd Roberts “The Hudson’s Bay Company” by Robert Watson. “The Story of Hydro” by Blodwen Davies. Price 10c per copy plus 2c postage. We shall be very glad to send you the whole list THE RYERSON PRESS Canada’s Pioneer Publishers — TORONTO Please mention the O.A.C.

REVIEW Agricultural Students Discover Profits in Practical Dairy Sanitation USING GENERAL PURPOSE MATERIALS AND JUST “GETTING BY” LOSES MONEY FOR FUTURE DAIRYMEN. Students in leading agricultural colleges in United States and Canada have found that there is definite profit to be gotten from doing dairy cleaning operations in a scientific way. Sanitation plays so vital a part in the marketing of dairy products that only the most effective and highly specialized cleansing materials can be profit¬ ably used for these particular operations. Wyandotte Cleaner and Cleanser has prvoed by daily use for over thirty years in dairies and creameries so highly efficient for securing dairy sanitation at reason¬ able cost, that to supply the demand a large part of the enormous plant of The J. B. Ford Company at Wyandotte, Michigan, is solely devoted to producing this one cleanser. These plants occupy over two miles of Detroit river frontage. Company owned steamships, coal mines, railroads, laboratories and factories all enter into the pro¬ duction of the many specialized Wyandotte Products—each of which is specifically designed for doing one particular kind of cleansing economically and well. Leading dairy supply jobbers in both United States and Canada will sell you Wyandotte.
