There is every reason for the
merchants Of Ontario to look
forward to a larger business
during 1914 than they had in
1913. There are many more
families to be catered to and
much more money was received
for the crops than the previous
year AS Ontario expands and
develops the circle of trade ex-
pands. The recent election
showed a good, substantial
growth during the past year and
the prospects are bright for
many more families to move in
this season and reclaim the lands
from sage brush. On the tracts
west Of here many had the work
started and will move their
femilies here this season and
the same is true in all directions
from the city. Team work is
what counts. When all are
pulling together for the develop
ment of the city and country re-
suits are bound TO follow.

in the course Of his duty Of inspect

samples of the milk from the Hawkins
dairy to a veterinarian for testing. The
result was that the milk from several
of the animals was reported as infect.
ed with tuberculosis germs and bacte-
ria and the sale OF the milk was
stopped. AS stated by the court, this
case brought the general health act OF
1912 under review as to Its validity.

lice power to take the action which he
had. In the affirming Of the hover
