LIMITEO MONTREAL TORONTO WINNIPEG Canadian History by the Pocketful Not to suggest “cramming”, hut 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.Gross, eminent Canadians and'fathers of the Dominion, all byv 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-un-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 iH. A. Kennedy. “The Building of the C. P. R.” bytH. A. Kennedy. “Tecumseh” by Lloyd Roberts “The Hudson’s Bay Company” by Robert Watson. “The Story of Hydro’’, by Blodwen Davies. * • 1 1 i * ■ • • ■ Price 10c per copt plus 2c postage.

REVIEW EVERY DAY IS “HOUSECLEANING" DAY FOR THE DAIRY INDUSTRY CLEANING MATERIALS USED DAILY BY DAIRYMEN AND CREAMERY- MEN NOW BEING INTRODUCED INTO THE HOME. The “Spring Clean-Up” and Spring “Housecleaning” are terms well known to both agricultural and home economics students. But, in the Dairy Industry every day is a housecleaning day. Every time a separator, a churn, or an ice cream freezer is used in a dairy, creamery, ice cream plant, or cheese factory, it must be thoroughly cleaned. Since cleaning is done so frequently in dairy plants, it is necessary that the cleaning material used be efficient, fast acting, harmless to washed surfaces and to the hands, and capable of doing all this at a minimum cost. For these reasons the Dairy Industry has standardized on Wyandotte for all cleaning operations. # The same Wyandotte,—Wyandotte Dairyman’s Cleaner—that for more than thirty years has been the standard of comparison in the dairy industry, is now being sold for home use in handy 3 lb. cartons. Leading Dairy Supply Jobbers in both United States and Canada will sell you Wyandotte in 80 lb. kegs or 280 lb. barrels. Your local merchant, dairy or* creamery, will supply you Wyandotte in 3 lb. cartons. For further information write to The J. B. Ford Company, Wyandotte, Michigan.

REVIEW A Specially Galvanized and Improved FROST FENCE at no extra cost AN announcement which crowns over thirty years of service to the Canadian farmer—Frost Zinc-Bonded Fence! Here is a new revolutionary zinc-galvanizing process, the discovery of the makers of Frost Fence and now introduced for the first time. Years of research and experiment and thousands of dollars have been spent in the per¬ fecting of this process. Yet, despite this enormous expenditure— despite the improved quality, we are happy to state that Frost Fence will not be increased in price by one cent Frost Zinc-Bonded Fence surpasses every former achievement in fence history. Never has such flexibility, rustlresistance and long life been possible before. Every strand of its copper content steel wire is permanently bonded against rust by a heavy coating of pure zinc, so flexible that the wire can be wrapped around its own diameter and the galvanizing will neither crack nor flake. Think what this means to you in your fence problems—what it means in per¬ manently stopping all loss through straying cattle or stock damaged crops. Frost Zinc-Bonded Fence will save you many dollars in repair costs. No weather con¬ dition affects it. It resists every shock and strain. For a lifetime it will remain efficient, saving you money every year. Write now for particulars of this exclusive Frost Zinc- Bonded Farm Fence, or see your Frost dealer today.
