New Hydro Line To Encircle Town

A Hydro Electric construction crew arrived in Alexandria this week to begin election of a power line which will completely encircle Alexandria, relieving the town system of the load now carried through our wires for dis- tribution to neighboring centres. At present power being distributed to Green Valley, Glen Roy, Glen Robert- son and many other points is carried through the Alexandria system and the new line is to correct that situation.

Under the supervision of George G. Argo of the Hydro Electric Corpora- tion, the construction crew is starting work this week in the Fourth Kenyon. We understand as many local men as can be secured will be used in the construction. It is also expect- several farms in the Alexandria area not now enjoying the benefits of electricity, will be fed by the new line.

Fewer High Schools, but larger unita offering additional courses of a mors practical nature, are in prospect in Ontario and officials of the Depart- ment of Education gave much valuable information to the members of Coun ties’ Council and the trustees of the various school boards of this area a<s a meeting in the Counties Buildinga Cornwall, on Tuesday afternoon. The Department visualizes a reduction in the number of High Schools in the province to fewer than 200 which would be fed by school bus routes each of wtcih would have a minimum of 300 students

There is no such thing as equality of opportunity for education at the pra sent time in the province, the speak ers declared, and the Department of Education is planning with the thought in mind that educational opportunities in rural school areas should be more a line with those of the citlea where a more practical education caa be had. Shopwork, commercial course» domestic science and an agricultural department are to be added to the present academic course in the rural high schools.

This movement for better education has gained steady impetus during the war. and it has not been instituted by the Department of Education but by the people of rural Ontario who in the past have not been getting their money’s worth in education the speakers declared They gave instances of several counties in Western Ontario which have already been divided into. High School districts and which are already enjoying the benefits of wider more economical education.

Some one hundred educationists from every section of the United Coun ties and from Prescott and Russell were in attendance at the meeting of Council which was presided over by Warden J. D. McPherson of Alexandria Reeve Jas. A. MacArthur of Lancaster chairman of the Education Committea of Council was voted to the chair for the open meeting and he introduced the speakers; Messrs Duffin and Ren- dall of the Department of Education who are devoting their efforts to the new scheme of education The speakers were later tendered a voté of thanks from the floor.

Pointing out that there are at present 165 High and 250 Continuation schools in the Province, most of which give only the academic course, Mr Duffin compared the opportunities for education in the cities, where vocation al schools are available, to those given in the small High schools of the rural areas. He outlined , the recent change in school grants which was designd to equalize the opportunities for all and went on to point out that only by cutting down the number of schools in rural Ontario and enlarging the units through the use of school busses, could the rural schools be put on a wider plan of education.

He indicated the steps which should be taken by a Counties’ Council to redistribute the High School districts on a larger scale. Council should ap-

Many rumours have been accompany ing the acute butter shortages across Canada and in Ottawa these have been discounted in no uncertain terms One rumor stated that much butter was, being consumed in making soaps or cos metics but inquires have disclosed that this was not true with coconut oil rather than butter being used in making cosmetics or soap. Another rumor claimed that much butter was being shipped abroad and this supposedly causing the severe shortages here, though investigations in Ottawa show that this too is wrong completely since in the first twto months of 1946 about 500,000 pounds were exported this being only three per cent of Canadian production of butter. On the other hand it is emphasized that on March 1, 1946 the stocks of creamery butter held in nine principal cities of Canr

ada had fallen to 5,565.000 pounds from 13,952,164 pounds on Feb. 1 with March 1 1945 having seen a stock of butter here of 11,372,000 pounds or almost double than in 1946 at the same time. Moreover production figures were lower this year, though an early change in the weather may shortly produce more butter in this country it is pre- dicted.

Army Licking Menacing e Problem of Malaria

Malaria has always been a major enemy of any army fighting in a warm climate, and ours is no ex- ception. For example, in the Span- ish-American war this disease ac- counted for the hospitalization each year of more than 500 out of every 1,000 men. In the World war, this figure was only 3.7 per 1,000, re- flecting the fact that we were fighting in a nonmalarious part of the world. Since 1918, improved control methods resulted in a steady de- cline in malaria. By 1940 the rate in our peacetime army was about 2 per 1,000. ,

In the present war casualties from malaria have been an important factor influencing military operations in certain tropical theaters. On the whole, the army has had a good record in preventing malaria. It is true, however, that casualties from the disease were excessive in certain of the early campaigns. Be- cause of the urgent military situation men had to fight in hyperen- demic regions without adequate an- timalaria supplies and without benefit of mosquito control. Lessons learned from these experiences have had their effect in later campaigns. -In general, American casualties from malaria have been fewer than those experienced by Allied forces in comparable areas. Malaria has caused much less noneSectiveness in our armies than in those of our

Chirping Crickets Feast On Basement Storage

Crickets, with“their cheerful chirp in the spring, are not so cheerful to the housewife when these insects are found in the basement. Besides being annoying, they .will teed op all types of material stored in the basement. However, there are several type? of crickets that find their way into basements, and all of them may be controlled by scattering lightly around the basement walls the following bait, Two cups of bran are usually sufficient to treat the basement of an average house.

2 ounces or 2 full cups of bran. 1/12 ounce or H level teaspoon of

Paris green. I'A ounces or a little less than V*

cup of water. Ordinary No. 20 motor oil may be

substituted for the water. If oil is used, only Vt the amount of water is required. The bran and Paris green should be mixed and then the water or oil added, slowly while mixing. This bait will also prove attractive to sowbugs, but it is not as effective as a bait made of one part Paris green mixed with nine parts of granulated sugar.

Trumpeter Swan The trumpeter swan is a bird of

magnificent proportions, with a wingspread of eight feet, and a weight of at least 25 pounds. For- merly the species bred from Fort Yukon, Alaska, and northern Can- ada south to Montana and Wyoming 'andi east4o.'(Nebraska and Iowa::;.iOf the thousands of these birds that had once inhabited the United States, less than 50 remained in 1931, according to the census of that year; and among these only five breeding pairs were known to have survived in the United States, con- centrated in Yellowstone National park and vicinity. »

The National Park service in 1930 began a study to ascertain location, numbers, and condition of the remaining swans in the Yellowstone region and gave the trumpeters special protection during the mating seasoiyyrit^ the,result that more of this ÿotihg than usual sürvived. From this study, personally financed by the late George M. Wright, chief of the service’s wildlife division, developed the planv wlüefl d*d to., the estab- lishment by executive order in 1935 of the Red Rock Lakes migratory bird refuge, west of the park in southwestern Montana, under the jurisdiction of the tab and, wildlife ..service^ .-t,,, ~. -.

Paint Mixtures Furnish Many Attractive Tints

A very attractive tint can be obtained using cobalt blue,Tinted with medium chrome green in the proportion of eight parts of cobalt to one part green, with one-half part English vermilion, to which white can be added until a pale tint ol blue is obtained.

For a chartreuse color, use two- thirds white paint mixed with one- third lemon yellow. Into the yellow- mix chrome green in the proportions of one part to ten. With jade green, the body of the tint is again white paint colored with chrome green, grayed with a bit of Venetian red and further cooled by a dab oi Prussian blue. •;

If your brown paint does not have “life” enough to suit you, and you want it rich and warm, you can use burnt umber for the base paint Then, if reddish brown is preferred, add Venetian red until the desired depth of color is obtained. For a lighter yellowish color, mix chrome yellow and burnt umber with white. A cinnamon brown can be made with a mixture of raw sienna, golden ochre and white with proportion- ately more sienna than ochre. You can “gray” a shade by adding a little of its complementary color- red to green, for example, orange to blue, violet to yellow.

Find Eagle Formidable But Not Heroic Bird

Results of long study of eagles, [ and compilation of the studies of other scientists, presented in a new Smithsonian institution book, deflate the accounts that the eagle is a fierce, courageous and noble bird.

True, the bald eagle is a bird of prey. But he Is also not fond of the hard work Involved in preying, and lives mostly on. fish cast ashore dy- ing or dead, or taken away from a smaller fish-catching hawk, the osprey. He can do his own fishing, but not so cleverly as the osprey, so he prefers to rob him.

When fish are scantily available, as in winter, the eagle does turn to -l

true bird-of-prey tactics. He takes any bird or mammal that he can handle, and that runs up as big as Canada goose. Despite his size, he is an athlete in the air, often turn- ing upside down and diving undei his victim to strike from beneath.

He does not build his home on a cliff nearly as often as on top of a tall ttee, even in the Rockies. And there are far more bald eagles in Florida, least cliffy of states, than anywhere else in the Union. Eagles have even been known to build their nests right at ground level.

Manure Loader Handling manure is a big job or,

livestock farms, particularly where cattle are fed in lots and sheds. On such farms the mechanical manure loader is a real labor save». Al- though there are few new loaders available, a farmer who does not own one may be able to use a load er owned by another farmer in the community. The mechanical man ure loader is well suited to exchange or custom work. In fact, since it wili easily load for four spreaders, it is necessary for a group of farmers to work together to use a loadei to its full capacity. A great deal ol manure will be spread during tilt slack season for field work in tile late summer and early fall. If there is a mechanical loader in the community, a small group of neigh boring farmers can make the jot easier by working together to use this machine to full advantage. Ma chine loaders do good work in cleaning off paved lots and feeding floors and are used to advantage where the manure is kept pretti well cleaned out through the year Some farmers keep the attachments for the loader on a tractor most o: the year.

Lye Peeling Widespread use of lye for peel

ing the fruit and vegetables con sumed by the armed services ha: led to the discovery of new medi cinals, plastic ingredients and valu able oils from peels and seeds here tofore wasted. The use of lye to pro luce several million tons of cannée and dehydrated foods has stimu iated research, and now man> new products are being developei from the peels and waste caustii soda. Lye peeling has also been t major factor in lowering prices o: many new dehydrated and frozen foods now reaching the civilian mar kets. The process, which receiveo great impetus because of the foot demands of the armed services, will continue to be of major assistance to canners because lye peelini makes vegetable and fruit process ing on a large scale an economical operation.

'canned fish, supplies of fresh or frozen fish are available.

Don’t be critical of the frozen fish. Freezing preserves the fresh flavour and enables you to store it in the freez ing unit of the electric refrigerator until you wish to cook it. When cooking frozen fish, the best results are ob tsined if it is allowed to thaw suffici- ently to cut into steaks. Allow a few minutes longer cooking frozen fish— about eight minutes extra baking^

Before we discuss ways of preparing fish, may we remind you, that it

jis important to know which kinds are I fat and which are naturally lean, es- i pecially when the diet is low in fat. The common fish containing oils are: herr

| ing, mackerel, salmon smelts, white- fish, mullet and haddock. Lean fish are: bass, bluefish, cod, flounder hali- but, perch, pickerel ,pike, lake trout

land catfish- Oil fish are best for baking; dry or lean fish require fat and soome moisture to prevent the skin from bursting or sticking.

Methods of Cooking Fish Baking whole Fish: Split the trim-

med fish down the backbone so that the fish will lie flat. Place In oiled baking pan skin side down. Sprinkle with salt. Cover with finely prepared bread crumbs, sprinkle with milk Bake in an electric oven of 425 degrees for 15 to 30 minutes according to the

■size of the fish. A 3-pound fish requires 15 to 30 mins

and a 6-pound fish 25 to 30 mins. If the fish becomes too brown before cooking period is up, reduce the heat.

Baked Whole Stuffed Fish: Fish to be stuffed should weigh 3 to 5 pounds. Clean, scale and remove the head and tail if desired. Sprinkle with salt inside and out. Stuff and sew. Place in an oiled pan and bake in an electric oven at 400 degs 12 mins, then reduce heat and bake 30 to 40 mins, according to the thickness of fish. Allow 10 minutes for each pound up to 4 lbs. and 5 mins, for each additional pound.

Sauteed or Pan-Fried Fish: This is a quick method of cooking fish. Small or medium fish are best for this purpose—large fish should be cut into commeal or fine crumbs. Use enough pieces for serving. Roll in salted flour, cooking fat or oil to completedly cover the surface of the pan. Heat oil until hot but not smoking hot, brown fish on cne side, turn and brown on the other. FiSh is cooked when easily pierced with

!a fork. ; Fried Fish (deep fat) : This method requires a pan one-third full of oil, therefore only specific inquiries will be answered

j Boiled Fish: Whole fish may be boiled, but it is more satisfactory if cut into servings. Dried or leanmeat fish are best for boiling. Servings are put on a pie plate and placed in a

| saucepan over which is poured one quart of water containing 3 tbsps. vinegar, 2 tsps. salt. (A quart of boul-

lion is a good substitute for vinegar solution.) Fish is boiled for 5 minutes,

1 then simmered for 6 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness. The liquid is used for making sauce—thick- en and season with onion, parsley, mushroom chopped egg, cheese, tomato or pices such as capers.

Steamed Fish: Pieces of dry-meat- ed fish are cooked tender in a steamer, aliowing 10 to 15 mins, petr pound Sauce is the finishing touch .for this dish, too.

LENTEN SPECIALS Feature cottage cheese as an entree

accompanied by baked potatoes and browned parsnips.

There are countless egg dishes, poached, scrambled, curried, fried, cooked-in-shell, stuffed, baked in gra- vy,, fried in deep batter, souffles, ome- lets, fondues, and variations of these.

Dried beans and peas are protein foods too. Thick soup seasoned with a small amount of onion and celery rounds out a meatless dinner. Our pioneers were grateful for boiled dried vegetables seasoned with a dash of cayenne.

Milk and cheese make a simple cas- serole the mainstay of any meal. If your oven -does not keep a constant temperature make a cream sauce of whole milk in preference to homogen- ized; this will prevent a curdled looking scallop.

Here’s what to do: drain off the liquid from a can of beets, heat to boiling and stir in two tablespoons of flour mixed to a paste with water, add 2 tbsps. vinegar and 3 tbps, brown sugar to make a good sauce.

Mrs Christie was the youngest daugh i ter of the late William MacNaughton : and his wife, Ann Fraser, her maiden j name being Christie Ann MacNaugh- : ton. She will be much missed in her community. Posessing a keen and interested mind, she was often called upon to help in community interests, j She was of a quiet home-loving disposi bon and her true Christian spirit was evident in the patience with which she endured her illness She was an active member of Martintown United Church and, prior to her illness, was president of Martintown missionary Society for three years.

Her husband, Simeon W. Christie, died on May 18, 1944 She leaves to mourn her loss one son and one daugh ter Ewen and Muriel; two brothers James D. MacNaughton, Stratford, and Dr W. B. MacNaughton Arnprior.

Chaplains Served U. S. in All Country’s^^Vars

In pre-Revolution days, chaplains served with companies nearest! their churches. In the Continental' army during the Revolution they were assigned to regiments, separate units and hospitals. In March,. 1791, the Rev. John Hurt of Vir-' ginia, a veteran of the Revolution, served as chaplain for the army, deriving his authority from a con- gressional act. He is considered the first chaplain of the army of the United States. Chaplains were assigned to regiments during the War of 1812. After that war, the only chaplain in the army seems to have1

been one at West Point, who also was professor of geography, history j and ethics. i

Concurrent with a new interest in | education and religion, the office of chaplains was restored by congress i in 1837 and post chaplains, relieved !

of the responsibility for instruction in lay subjects, were assigned to army installations. During the war with Mexico, a chaplain was! authorized for each regiment of vol-* unteers.

In 1861, regimental chaplains weré j authorized and Jewish rabbis made, j eligible. During the revolution, three i Catholic chaplains had served. Of: ! three Catholic chaplains who went] , to Mexico with Taylor’s army, one ■ was killed by guerillas. |

When the United States entered the World War in 1917, there were 74 chaplains in the regular army and 72 in the national guard.

Plan Proper Storage for Reservation of Foods

No farm family can afford to over- look the proper storage of canned, dried and cured foods because spoil- age of these foods often results in large losses. The time, energy, and the small amount of money needed for adequate storage of foods is one of the best investments that any family can make. Ideal food storage should be convenient to the kitchen regardless of whether it is located in the house, cellar or an qutside building.

The storage unit should have tight floors and walls, reinforced with an insulation material to help in preventing extremes in temperatures. It should be cool in summer, frost- proof in winter, well ventilated and dry at all times. ■

All shelves need to be firmly braced so that they will be strong enough to carry their valuable loads. The larger and heavier containers can best be kept on the lower shelves. The height of the jar will determine the distance between the shelves. To estimate the distance between shelves, two inches should be added to the height of the small containers and eight inches to that of the large containers.

Donald Young, recently published in this paper, the names of Miss Edith M. T. Ingram and Alastair and Gordon MacLeod were inadvertently omitted

from the list of those who sent sprays.

[ Better Names Better^names for purebred live-

stock are being urged by Dr. W. A. Craft of the U. S. department of agriculture’s regional swine breeding laboratory at Ames, Iowa, and A. B. Caine, professor of animal husband- ry at Iowa State college.^. Names should associate animals with the name of the farm, the owner, the line of breeding or even the bleed, instead of being meaningless In list- ings, they point out. While they had particular reference to swine, other IlMatock were also put in the same category. The experts- believe that an orderly system of naming animals would contribute to the improvement of pedigreed stock, and would help dignify and distinguish the owner’s business.

Brenner Pass The Brenner Pass, one of the

easiest and lowest crossings over the Alps, links southwest Austria and northeast Italy. It is situated in ter- ritory long and bitterly contested between peoples living north and south of the Alps. The Italians won the last round in 1919, when their frontier was pushed northward to this point in accordance with World- War settlements. For more than 2,000 years the Brenner Pass has been a convenient channel for in- vasion, commerce and culture, as well as often a battleground itself. Through it barbarian hordes poured to sack the rich Italian lands. Roman legions built a road through it and then made it echo with the tramp of marching feet.

Elm Leaf Beetle The elm leaf beetle is about a

quarter of an inch long, a dull olive green with an indistinct black stripe on each side and yellow antennae and legs. They feed on the leaves of elm trees in the spring and early summer and seek winter shelter soon after mid-July. Often they come indoors in large numbers. If you are bothered by them, make a careful search of places where they might enter—the chimney, ’spaces under the eaves or behind the clap- boards or shingles—and inspect win- dows to iee if they are getting in through spaces where the screens do not fit snugly. If it is the chimney, you can screen the top or tie several

v thicknesses of cheesecloth oyer it until September.

Stomach Disturbances Pointing out how to avoid flare-

ups of ulcers ot the stomach ami du- odenum , Walter C. Alvarez, M. D., Rochester, Minn., says in the Jour- nal of the American Medical Associ- ation for July 29 that “It is suggested that when a patient who has had an ulcer goes through an emotional crisis he should immediately start taking food every hour or two. Ha shouldn’t wait for the expected flare- up or hemorrhage or perforation. The extra feedings are probably most needed between the hours of 10 p. m. and 3 a. m.

“A man of 50 who had always been well discovered one day that the man who for 20 years had been his brother-in-law, his closest friend and his business partner had been falsi- fying the books in order to steal from him. All that night he lay awake in great mental distress, and next day he had a big gastric hemorrhage. Another man, when a vio- lent strike in his factory distressed him terribly, had a big hemorrhage. A woman who adored her peppery little .daughter-in-law one day inadvertently offended her and brought down on her head a storm of abuse which nearly killed her. Next day a long-healed ulcer flared up and perforated. A woman who heard that her soldier husband had just been killed at the front promptly had a hemorrhage.

Clean Surface Scrape or wire-brush any loose or

scaling paint from the walls and other surfaces and sandpaper smooth where necessary. Then look carefully for any cracks, nail holes, or other openings and fill them with crack filler which can be obtained in forms suitable for different kinds of surfaces from any paint dealer or paint department. When using putty on exterior surfaces, it is well to prime the holes with a coat of paint, then apply the putty and paint over it. For interior plas- tered walls, patching plaster and various crack fillers are readily obtainable in the stores.

Hybrid Onion First hybrid onion variety to be

developed is “California Hybrid Red No. 1” released by the California agricultural experiment station and the U. S. department of agriculture. Especially adapted to areas of mild winter climate, it can be planted in the field in the fall aed harvested in spring or early summer. Yield ranges in 100-pound bags from 460 to 768 an acre. The bulbs average .8 pound in weight, a little more than 3% inches in diameter and 8% inches in height. Th* onion is a red globe with white flesh. ,

Is Sunday guest day in your house? Veal steak given a moist and gentle heat treatment can be as delectable as chicken, and one pound \ will nicely serve four. On Monday shoulder lamb chops can be the focal point of a tasty stew. To lighten kitchen duties, make a double order which can sit over a day in the ice box and reappear on Wednesday, good as ever, with i a topping of mashed turnip and potato. A vegetable ' plate can be an attractive and satisfying way to cope with meatless Tuesday. Minerals and vitamins will be furnished a-plenty, and protein provided by a cheese sauce on one of the vegetables, or by an egg centering a baked potato or mound of spinach, Thursday's minced beef assumes a new role when baked in individual ring moulds, or simply shaped into nests. When served, the center may be filled with vegetables or a tasty sauce. Friday is your day to line up a fish dinner. On Saturday you can forget your ration arithmetic by having unratloned heart—lamb hearts for individual service, the larger beef heart If you want some to slice cold jat q later date.

Care of Electric Irons Will Assure Long Use

To guard against overheating, which may cause the heater wire to break down, always turn oft that electric iron before ’saving the ironing board—the only safe thing to. do. This won’t cause much loss of time, as most Irons will heat again to correct «ironing temperature in less than two minutes.

Plug Irons into wall sockets, not into overhead drop cords or light sockets. Appliances that generate heat consume the greatest amounts of electricity. Light sockets and drop cords are not built to carry enough current to heat an iron properly and may break down and become un- safe if used for that purpose.

Cleanliness prolongs the life of your iron. Be sure an iron is clean before it is stored. When the iron is cold, starch spots on the sole plate can be removed by wiping them with a cloth wrung from soapsuds or a mild scouring powder. Finish cleaning by wiping iron with a cloth wrung from clear water. Then polish with dry cloth.

When disconnecting iron cord from electric outlet, always grasp the plug and not the cord. Pulling on the cord may loosen connections or break wires and insulation. Twisted, frayed or knotted cords are also dangerous and may cause short.cir- cuits and possibly fires. Always take the plug of a detachable cord out of the wall. It is not necessary to remove plug from the iron itself. Pulling a cord off the iron while current is still flowing may pit the ter- minals and eventually ruin them.

Rate Bulls Bulls are given milk and cream-

ratings in a new publication of the U. S. department of agriculture. The ratings are given by studying the yields of daughters of the sires in question, comparing them with the yields of their own mothers made under similar conditions, and crediting the gain, if any, to the influence of the bull’s lineage. Thus if 10 daughters of a given sire gave a milk-yield record of 10,000 pounds for the test period, while their mothers have a comparable record of 9,000 pounds,,; the 1,000- pound difference is chalked up to the credit of the sire. This process is called “proving.” A proved sire with a good record as shown by his daughters’ production performance is naturally in demand for the improvement of other herds of milch cows. But to some bulls come only posthumous honors: in the agriculture department’s list many animals are recorded as having died before the proof period (which may require several years) could be completed.

Poultry Worms Warm weather and moist places

encourage the hatching of round worms. Intestinal worms of any kind sap the strength of hens and lower egg production. Worms can be determined by watching the manure.

The most common are (1) large round worms the size of a knitting needle and 1 to 3 inches long, (2) caecum worms about as large as a pin and % to 1 inch long, (3), tape worms, flat tape-like worms in segments. Tape worms may be many inches long, but each segment is really an individual, for it will reproduce.

To treat for worms clean out the house and yard thoroughly. Remove caked runs and put in clean sand. Arrange drinking fountains so water does not collect on the ground. In- dividual capsules obtainable at drug stores or poultry supply houses are the best for treatment.

Dishwashing Tips Cut down on time consumed

in dishwashing by keeping a small pail or other container filled with cool sudsy water standing on the drainboard or work table. As mixing spoons, egg beaters, knives, and other utensils are soiled, drop them in the container to soak. There will be no need for<hard rubbing and scouring later when they are washed with the rest of the dishes. This plan also saves soap which is made of ingredients which are important to war munitions, and which itself has many Important war uses.

Orchids Guide Iron Prospectors in Brazil

Prospectors for iron ore in Brazil and Venezuela are guided to such deposits by the presence above ground of a certain type of rare and beautiful orchid blooms. Also in Venezuela, iron is invariably indicated by the presence of a little tree called the "copey.”

Cuba is another region where dis- tinctive vegetation definitely in- dicates a soil condition associated with deposits of iron ore. On that island ore deposits support a heavy growth of pine, and because of that fact Columbus is said to have discovered iron on his first voyage to the New World. A broken mast on one of his ships necessitated putting in to the north shore of the island, and beneath the pine tree cut down for the mast, ore was found. >

In the southeastern part of the United States iron ore deposit» are commonly overgrown with cedar in much thicker growths than in non-ore regions. In the east Texas “brown ore” field, outcrop» of the ore-bearing green sand support relatively heavy growths of hardwood, almost the only hardwood in the locality.

TEA & COFFEE Bell Telephone Conducting Survey

Rural residents in the Alexandria ex change area who do not have telephone service are being consulted by the Bell Telephone Company regardihg telephone service and kindred matters

Their comments are sought in an 18-page questionaire booklet mailed to non-subscribers in 19 respresentative communities throughout Quebec and Ontario.

Eentitled “What does Your Fmaily Think about Telephone Service?” the illustrated booklet invites impressions regarding the service, its cost, and the company itself, and also requests information on various details of rural life.

Under the heading, “What Would ■^ou Do?” it asks what might be done *o improve and extend service in rural areas.

“Feel perfectly free to express your frank opinions,” the introduction

'states. j A similar questionaire was sent to those already subscribing to telephone service in representative communities last year

Halted by the war the company’s long-term program to improve rural service and extend it to more persons than ever before has been resumed with expanded scope. Construction of new lines alone will involve some $19,000,000 during the next few years

Reduction of the number of parties per rural line, emphasized in replies received to the previous questionaire is already being carried out as rapidly as possible. It is hoped that suggestions made in reply to the present question- naire will assist the company to provide the kind of service the rural telephone wants.

Show New Device For Making Cheese

Guelph, April 8—Representatives of more than 50 of the 75 cheese factories in Western Ontario saw new equipment which will reduce the amount of labor needed in making Cheddar cheese, at the 25th annual dairy conference for Western Ontario.

The device, demonstrated by Prof. W. Sproule, head of the dairy department. OAC, was a round-end stain- less steel vat equipped with forking curd agitators. There are two new peints—the round end and the curd agitators Previously vats were equipped with milk agitators but these were useless once the curd was formed and the heavy curd had to be stirred by hand

Quality improvement in Cheddar was stressed at the conference, with special emphasis on proper handling fo raw mik before it is delivered to the factory. ^

.1000 Canadians die of cancer every month. Cancer specialists are convinced that the majority of these lives could be saved if proper treatment were given in the early stages of the disease.

That is the aim of the campaign against cancer i now being organized in Ontario—to cut down this costly loss of life now being exacted by

It is proposed to establish cancer clinics at suitable centres throughout the province where all who suspect they may have cancer may be examined, and receive the proper, treatment if necessary.

Plans are also under way to pay a portion of the cost of treatment of cancer, as well as travelling expenses, for those needing financial

The third objective of the campaign is an

energetic program of cancer research in Ontario with the aim of discovering a specific cure for cancer, or for some means of preventing the disease.

Cancer research carried on to date has been entirely inadequate. It is estimated that less than $100,000 is being spent in the whole of Canada on cancer and related subjects.

Cancer can be conquered. If science is able to organize sufficient forces against the scourge of cancer, the solution will sooner or later be

Your contribution is needed—to cut down the death rate from cancer now—to carry on the search for a method of ridding the world of this dread disease.

CHAPTER X “Oh, no," protested Rusty. “Why.

these ranchers and the association men have lived here alwalys.”

“And does living here make them Immune from thievery?”

Doctor Westmore was away that night and the next morning and Ade- laide presided at the hospital m his place.

Rusty shopped for the house that morning. At the butcher's, she eyed the meat counter thoughtfully.

“I'd like that tenderloin butt,” she told the butcher, “but first I’d like you to show me the side from which you took it. I want to see the government stamp.”

“Look,” drawled a tall, blonde girl next to her. "take what you can get and eat it This meat rationing is all a lot of hoeey. The big ranches are holding their cattle so they can make more money on them.”

Rusty shook her head head. “When ■we buy black market meat, we may be buying stolen goods, and the fellow from whom it was stolen is the loser.”

"A lot you know about it,” scoffed the blonde. “These cattle barons can stand it. Why say, the money they make — Well, what’s so funny?”

Rusty was chuckling. “I happen to be one of the cattle barons,” she ex- plained.

“Here you are, lady,” said the butcher in a bored voice, and heaved a Bide onto his block. “Or would you like tme to prove that butt came off this—”

“She’d know,” laughed the blonde. “She says she runs one of the big ranches.”

When your BACK ACHES...

Backache is often caused by lazy kidney action. When kidneys get out of order excess acids and poisons remain in the system. Then backache, headache, rheumatic pain, disturbed rest or that ‘tired out’ feeling may soon follow. To help keep your kidneys working properly—use Dodd’s Kidney Pills. Time-tested, popular, safe, non-habit-form- ing. Demand Dodd’s Kidney Pills, in the blue box with the red band. Sold everywhere. 13S

The butcher scrutinized Rusty, then grinned. “Well, I’ll say she does! Did- n’t. recognize you, Miss Rowland. Any chance you selling straight? I could sure handle some of that Double R. beef.”

“ ‘Get thee behind me,’ ” begged Rusty. “But no — I’d rather wait until my stock is in the prime.”

“What did I tell you?” demanded the blonde. If this doesn’t prove the cattlemen are holding out—”

“It doesn’t,” Rustyt flashed “Our men overseas are going to need food next winter. If all the cattlemen sold their stock when it was one-third its potential size they’d be cutting the needed supply of beef just two-

, thirds.” j She took her package and left. i Westmore returned home that afternoon looking grim and very tired. Adelaide literally drove him into the house to rest, saying that she could do the hospital work.

| "If ever a human needed a complete rest!" she said worriedly to Rusty.

I “I wish he could go off on a huntitng drip, far away from telephone bells.” I “If only ye were a surveyor,” mused Rusty. “I could fix up a trip for him”

I “But he is !” ’exclaimed Adelaide, sitting up. “Or he was That’s how he happened to become a veterinarian.”

I Rusty blinked, trying a fathom the | relation between a surveyor and a veterinarian .

| Adelaide laughed, then exlained. I “He graduated from college as a civil engineer and immediately joined a crew building a highway across a section of the Rockies. He was in the ad- vance group, which had to ride on horses. The terrain was impossible. Everything that could happen happened to their mounts and their pack horses It was a nightmare to any one loving animals. All they could do was kill the unfortunate beasts.

“Herb realized that if any of them had had even the rudiments of veterinary skill, many of the animals could have been saved. And so, the next year he enrolled in the school I attended. At that time, I believe, he intended to return to engineering, using his veterinary training merely as a supplement However for some reason, he later de-

cided to make a profession of it.” Rusty sat silent, considering the pos-

sibility of asking Doctor Westmore to act as her surveyor on the .trip into Low Valley. Ralph had' written her to be careful whom she chose. But surely Kerb could be trusted not to tell any one of her project.

In the end, she told Adelaide about it and about the importance of keeping it secret, so that the rustlers would not learn of the new pasturage for her yearlings .

“If could induce Doctor Westmore to do the surveying for the trail into valley,” she said eagerly. “It wouud be wonderful ! It would solve my problem and though it wouldn’t exactly be a vacation for him, it would get him out- doors and give him a change. He and Uncle Jedy and Hank and I could make the trip, leaving Piney to handle the ranch ” Then the light died from her eyes. "But I suppose we couldn’t persuade him to take the time off. We’d be away for at least two weeks.”

Adelaide was staring into space, a speculative expression on her face.

“If I were to tell him that his work was suffering because he was nervous,” she murmured, “we might—well, we’ll see. Let me talk to him ...”

The next morning Doctor Westmore conducted his first class in elemental veterinary training for the cattlemen of the surrounding ranches. The first week was ' devoted to lectures. The next week the group made the rounds of the near-by ranches, first watching the doctor give subcutaneous in- jections to cattle, then giving them themselves under his watchful eye.

That completed the short course but, after the rest of the class had been dis missed, Rusty decided to stay on at the Westmore place for a while longer, for there was more that she wanted to learn.

Then, one day, while the doctor was out, Decker came to see her He wanted to know when she was coming home.

‘You said you were coming here for only a week—” he said.

“Two weeks,” she corrected. “Well, anyway, this is the third.

Have you any idea how your ranch is being run in your absence?”

“With you as a next-door neighbor,” she retorted, “with one eye over the fence, nothing serious could happen.”

He frowned, then blurted. “It isn’t the ranch I’m thinking about, Rusty. It’s the idea of you in here where that fellow can make love to you every hour of the day!”

‘ Make love I” Rusty Jumped up angrily. “Why, you—you idiot! If you’d spend just one day in this place you’d learn that a veterinarian hasn't time even to think of anything but grief. Love indeed!”

Yet she turned away quickly to hide the flush on her cheeks.

I’m sorry”, he said. “But listen, Small : Fry, there’s a reason why I don’t like your being here. There’s something queer about this place. I’ve heard rumors at association headquar- ters. Look—on the nights of the raids, is the doc ever in?”

“He was here the night your ranch was raided, wasn’t he?”

T’ce never said my ranch was i aided,” he objected. “Mother jumped to the conclusion when she heard ! the fracas. I’ve never got to the hot- | tom of it, but I believe that Slim Jack had been playing a crooked game of poker with some of the other boys, V ou can guess the rest. But to get back to the point, I wish you’d come home. Why don’t you pack up and come home with me now?” |

“No,” Rusty said firmly. Decker sighed. “Well, all right. But

if you insist on staying, keep your eye peeled, will you? I mean, take in all you can and if you see or hear anything suspicious let me know.”

“The idea! she protested angrily. “So you want to . make me a super- snooper—a guest spying on her host!”

“Isin’t it justified if it means learn- ing—” Decker broke off. “But never mind—forget it. It’s justt that I’ve been singled out by the association to run down certain things.”

He left soon after that and, when he was gone. Rusty sat for a long time

I considering what he had said. She cuuln”t believe that there (was any

I truth in his implications, and yet his words left her disturbed. She’d decided finally that perhaps she’d better go home, after all. She’d leave tomorrow .

Then, she thought of his outburst about Westmore making love to her and, again, a flush came to her cheeks. Her retort had been sincere but, nevertheless, she realized that there had been times when she had caught the doctor looking at her in a way that had made her heart pound. Could it be that she had been lingering on here because she was falling in love with lum? But no—that was ridiculous!

That evening, after dinner. Rusty wandered over to the hospital to find Westmore working ovter a dog and muttering to himself.

“If only pet owners would use a little sense!” he complained. “Look at this leg, inflamed to the shoulder. A foreign object in the paw. If the owner had brought the dog in at once, it could have been removed. But no— some idiot had told him slivers and the like dissolved in pus, so he let the infection trave while he waited for the cause to dissolve.”

For no apparents reason. Rusty began to laugh. Westmore looked up. “Why the hilar- ity?”

She coudn’t tell him what! Decker had said—that he didn’t like he idea of the doctor having a chance to make love to her every hour of the day. If this was love—

"I just remembered something”, she evaded. “No connection. By the way, I’ve decided that I’d better return to the ranch tomorrow. I’ve been away long enough.”

His reply surprised her. “I expected that, after Mr. Decker’s visit today. His dislike of me is equalled only by my dislike of him.”

“But I came for only two weeks,” she reminded him.

He turned away from the dog and looked at her. "I know, but having you here, though I haven’t had time to see much of you, has meant— well, it has meant-' quite—quite a lot to me—’’ he floundered.

Rusty saw again that look in his eyes ,and her heart was beating like a trip-hammer

I Then, Adelaide came in to tell him he was wanted on the phone in the

'house—and the spell was broken. Im- mediately, his manner became busi- nesslike again . j

"Adelaide,” he said, as he turned to answer the telephone, “our assistant is leaving us tomorrow.”

Oh, I’m sorry! Must you go, Rus- ty?”

“I’m afraid so,” said the girl. ‘ We’ll miss you. However, if you

must go, you’d better come into the garden and help me to select those herbs your mother wants.”

In the twilighted garden, as Rusty bent over the herb plants, sh» thought of that floundering little speech that Herb had made. Had It meant anything?

“Rusty,” Adelaide murmured, "you can depend upon the doctor’s making

that surveying trip with'you. I’ll arrange it. ...”

That night, when Rusty retired to her room, her heart was singing.” She would spend another two weeks with Herb Westmore. She didn’t care what Decker said, she knew Herb was all right—that it would be perfectly safe tc let him in on her secret pans in regard to Low Valley.

She was sound asleep when Ade- laide awakened her to bring her sitting upright in bed.

“Rusty—I’ve just been talking to your mother on the phone Your Uncle Jed has been shot. One' of the ranch hands is bringing him into the city to the hospital. I’ve called a cab to take you there.”

"Is—is Herb—” Rusty faltered. “I’m sorry, child—he’s out on a

case.” Rusty, with Hank beside her, sat at

the end of a hospital corridor and waited anxiously for a report on Un- cle Jed’s condition.

She had been at the emergency en- trance when hee had been brought in. | She had had only a glimpse of his ' while, unconscious face. Then, he had !

been whisked away. Now, she sat Waiting fith Hank, j

who had brought him from the ranch, i “Tell me what happened,” she said. 1

“Was it a raid?” (To be Continued)

Ü. S. Grants Private Firm Postage Stamp Contact

For”1 the first time in 50 years United States postage stamps are being printed by a private firm. The bureau of printing and engraving, loaded with demands for bonds and for currency (circulation of money being the highest in our history), turned over to the American Bank- note company of New York the con- tract for 215,000,000 stamps of the commemorative issues honoring occupied countries.

The new stamps will be primarily collector’s items. The nations they will honor are Poland, Norway, Den- mark, Luxembourg, the Nether- lands, Belgium, Greece, Yugoslavia, Albania, Austria, Czechoslovakia and France.

The American Banknote company printed U. S. government stamps from 1879 to 1893, and has continued to print foreign stamps and currency through the years since then. The government pays about 54 cents a thousand for the stamps. It sells them through the official Philatelic agency in Washington at full price thus netting a substantial profit. Ordinarily they go right into collector’s books and stay there, so that they are never a charge to postal revenue.

Find Hemp Crop Takes Less Fertility From Soil

Important soil fertility elements removed from the land by the 1943 hemp crop were found to be relatively low In comparison to other farm crops. Number 1 hemp straw as taken from the farm to the processing mill was found to contain approximately 10 pounds of nitrogen in a ton. A ton of corn grain (35.7 bushels) was found to contain approximately 30 pounds of this important element. A four-ton-an- acre yield of Number 1 hemp straw was found to contain a total of 73 pounds of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. A 75-bushel corn crop, grain only, contained 94 pounds of these important elements. The removal of these elements by the com crop greatly exceeded that removed by the straw of a large hemp crop.

Calcium and magnesium content of hemp was found to be relatively high for a nonlegume crop. To replace the calcium and magnesium removed by four tons of hemp would require approximately 200 pounds of 90 per cent dolomitic limestone. To replace these same elements removed by a four-ton red clover hay crop would require approximately 430 pounds of the same grade limestone.

Gem and Abrasive The garnet is a member of the

mineral family that varies in use from a gem, worn for personal deco- ration, to an abrasive, utilized in Industry. Although widely distributed, garnets are found in only a few places in sufficient quantities to make their commercial recovery profitable.

Best known are the wine-red gems, others ranging from light browns and red through the darker shades to black. Some specimens have measured over two feet in diameter, and 6 to 12-inch crystals are commonly found.

Because garnet Is very hard and can be broken into angular grains with sharp chisel-like edges, it is well adapted for use as an abrasive. Abrasive cloth or paper made from crushed garnet is excellent for smoothing wood surfaces before ap- plying varnish or shellac, also for finishing boots, shoes and many articles made of rubber, leather and plastics.

iant Bombslght A giant bombsight which has

never been off the ground—and never will be—is doing a king-size job at home in preparing cadets of the army air forces training command for raids against the Axis. This super-sight is bolted to the floor in classrooms of training command bombardier schools/and there it will remain until victory. Five feet high, eight feet long and five feet wide, it compares in size to the actual AAF bombsight as a washtub compares to a wristwatch. In order to maintain their reputation as the world’s finest bombshots, it is necessary that bombardier cadets be thoroughly familiar with the inner workings of their precision aiming device. Some of its vital parts are almost microscopic in size. The in structors concluded that a "big’' bombsight, with correspondingly “big” parts, would enable the cadel to see more clearly just how things ticked on the inside when he drew a bead on an enemy target.

Cat’s Disease A respiratory disease of cats—

variously called nasal catarrh, in- fiuenza or distemper—has been ob- served frequently in the northeast- ern states. The main characteristic! of the disease are its highly infec- tious nature, debilitating effects and long course—about a month.

Its respiratory nature is man!- tested by sneezing and coughing, accompanied by a mucopurulent discharge from the eyes and nose. At autopsy, reddish-gray, densely consolidated areas are noted tn the anterior lobe*, at the hmgs.

Green Peppers Tasty ,, “! * As Main Course Fare

While we think of green pepper* primarily as seasoners, they can play several Interesting roles as main course fare. Remove the stems and seeds and stuff them with à meat or fish croquette mixture ir a combination of cooked vege- •ables, as corn and green t eans or peas, carrots and celery. Top them with buttered crumbs and bake Si a moderate oven (350 degrees Fahr- enheit) until the filling is thoroughly heated and the peppers tender. It /ou wish to shorten the baking time, ;team the peppers for a few min- âtes before you stuff them. T

Corn and green pepper scallop is another favorite combination. Mix two parts of whole kernel corn with one part of minced green peppers. Add enough thin cream sauce to moisten, season to taste with salt, pepper and a dash of nutmeg, and turn into a greased baking dish. Top with crumbs and a tablespoon or two of minced raw bacon and bake in a moderate oven (350 degrees Fahrenheit) until golden brown and thoroughly heated. -)

Vary the scallop occasionally by using a portion of lima beans along with the corn. Baked or boiled ham, cooked chicken or veal may be combined with the vegetables for a substantial main course dish. Instead of the minced bacon topping use strips or slices and run the cas- serole under low broiler heat to crisp the bacon just before you send the dish to the table.

Potatoes Packed With Lye During Processing

White potatoes are “lye peeled” after being stored in a well-ven- ilated room at 70 degrees Fahr-

onheit for at least one week. They are first washed in hot watfer to remove surface dirt, and are conveyed through about a 20 per cent caustic soda solution at a temperature just below boiling for nearly three minutes to loosen the skins, eyes and surface blemishes.

The potatoes are then mechanical- ly conveyed through a rotating cold- water washer where they are freed of skins, loose eyes, and all caustic soda by means of high ’ pressure water- sprays. The potatoes then pass over an inspection belt where they are inspected for any remaining defects and, when necessary, deeply embedded eyes and stem ends are trimmed by hand.

In the largest potato processing plant in the world, located in Cald- well, Idaho, 450,000 pounds of raw ootatoes are peeled every 24 hours.

Saves Duck* Countless thousands of wild ducks

and geese can be saved by timely use of botulinus antitoxin, according to Dr. E. R. Quortrup of the Wildlife Disease research station, Brigham, Utah. Antitoxin treatment is combined with good management practices, including shifting affected birds to fresh water ponds and shade.

The administration of antitoxin to 327 ducks taken at random, without regard to degree of sickness, gave an 87 per cent recovery, while only 64 per cent recovered from 207 birds which received no treatment. The difference between 87 per cent and 64 per cent is 23 per cent, this being the percentage of birds actually saved by antitoxin.

Of severely affected birds, 82.09 per cent recovered when antitoxin was given; only 18 per cent rr- jovered spontaneously without antitoxin. The curative dose of botulinus antitoxin lor ducks is 2 cc., for wild 'eese 5 to 10 cc. Thus, the cost of aving a sick duck is only about

ive cents. |

Gold Alloys Alloying of gold with other metals

nodifies the characteristic bright ellow of gold itself and results in -arying shades that have added to he decorative appeal of the precious metal. Usually the color of alloys is f modification of the colors of the instituent metals, but sometimes he scientist is surprised by getting m alloy entirely different from vhat would be expected from the olors of the metals used. Thus, when 22 parts of aluminum

re added to 78 parts of gold, an densely purple, or ruby-colored, el-

oy results. Unfortunately this truly eautiful alloy is very brittle, and annot be produced in sheet or wire arm. Whether it will be possible to ake advantage of its extremely eautiful color for decorative pieces ( jewelry, etc., by attaching small eces of the alloy to a gold back-

round, remains to be seen.

Making Water Wetter Strangely enough one of the new-

st derivatives of petroleum to be- ome valuable is a material to make zater wetter. That paradox is not is strange as it seems since ârçre ire a great many things water eraS lot normally wet—duck*’ backs, aw wool, greases and a great many ithers. However, if soap is dissolved n water, as everyone knows, it has lower to wet more different kinds 4 material», than without scop, md is therefore, in a sense, wetter.
