This weather makes people hanker for salads and for long cool drinks made of fruit juices. It cer­ tainly is luckjT that there are lota of makings of both in the market Berries, for instance, can be used to make a delicious juice, steeped in water. It is good combined with any of the other stewed strained fruits—rhubarb for instance will add flavour and tartness, or orange juice may sweeten the beverage. Iced tea makes a good base for a fruit drink, too. The tea will make the juice go farther. There are all kinds of vegetables now that are better in salads than in purees. Why not gather an assort­ ment of fresh vegetables—enough for lunch, prepare, chill and serve. For instance, a bowl containing wedges of lettuce, parrot sticks, on­ ion rings, radishes goes well with scrambled egg, boiled potatoes and some hot corn muffins. Put a tall glass of combination fruit juices be­ side each plate—and your fapiily won’t complain that they are too 1 cup water 1-2 cup sugar 1 cup cherry juice 1-2 cup orange juice 1-2 cup graefruit juice 1 quart ginger ale Make a syrup of sugar and water, boil 5 minutes Cool. Prepare fruit juices; strain. Add syrup and ginger ale or ice water, just before serving. Serve with ice and garnished with cherries. SPECIAL SUPPER SALAD 1 cup cooked, diced potato 1-2 cup minced onion 1-2 cup grated carrot 1-4 cup minecd green pepper 1 cup string beans 1 tsp. salt 1 tsp. chili powder 2 tbs. vinegar 3 tbs. salad oil 1 cup salad croutons Lettuce Mix vinegar, seasonings, oil and croutons together.

In between, place mounds of spinach and cabbage. Place slices of seasoned hard cooked egg and sprig of parsley in centre. Chill in.electric refriger­ ator. Served with boiled dressing to which some vegetable juices have been added. Hubby—“You are extravagant That electric fire has been burning upstairs all day.” Wife—“Don’t worry, dear. It’s not ours.

Do not add too much salt to prepared greens or they will wilt as salt draws out the juices. 3. Vegetable juice may be added to boiled dressing instead of olL To obtain the juices, grate carrots, beets or onion. Put in a piece of cheese cloth and wring out the juice. 4.

RACE WINNERS With the Troops (Continued from page 1) lifee the column, “With the Troops", as it puts me in touch with plenty of my chums. Getting along fine and not com­ plaining, as I realize I could be far worse off. Now that leaves have been stopped for an indefinite period, can't see so many of my Ingersoll pals or visit people I’ve met over here, but do hear from my chums and keep in touch with them. Guess my brother is doing O.K. down in southern England and is somewhere near “WilT’-Baynton and “Spark" Copeland, so maybe they will be able to get together and talk over old times in IngersolL Had Claude Baynton here to visit me a week ago yesterday and it was swell to see him again. Must have been three years since I last saw him, but he looks great and hasn’t changed much. We really did have a great talk about the old town, and both enjoyed it very much. He is only about ten miles from here, so will cycle to see Claude on one of my days off. The weather has bwh very unpre­ dictable and have had more than our share of rain, bnt still have had enough sun, so that I have acquired quite a healthy tan. According to my brother, the weather is much better dawn south and I guess he is ke'pt busy with baseball nd golf At night ' Things-are looking much better how in Italy and our kites are giving them plenty of headaches «n Eur­ ope, so maybe it won't jbe too long before I’ll be back home in Ingersoll and that will suit me fine.Seems to be all'the news for now and thanks once again for the cigar­ ettes and Tribunes, I really do appreciate them both.

Rye and Flue>Cured Tobacco Soil* .(Experimental Farms News) An application of nitrogen fertil­ izer on the rye in the rotation has improved both grade and yield of flue-cured tobacco, in testa at the Dominion Experimental Substantial, Delhi, "during the past five years, says F. A. Stinson, the Officer in charge. Disking in mature rye crops and rye straw after combining, has be­ come an established practice because it is a highly economical means of restoring soil organic matter in flue- cured tobacco soils. The rate at which this straw rote depends on the amount of nitrogen available in the soil. During recent years farmers have observed frequently that the •straw does not rot as quickly as formerly. This is the natural result of reduced nitrogen reserves brought about by cropping with tobacco and rye only. An application of nitrogen at the time of disking in the straw, will speed .up the rate of decomposi­ tion and improve the soil produc­ tivity. So far, comparisons at the Delhi Substation have included application* of nitrogen carriers at approximately one hundred and two hundred pounds per acre. Results indicate that at least 200 lb. of these materials may be applied to advantage. Sul­ phate of ammonia, eyanamid,; and of soda have been used with equal success in these tests. In addition to nitrogen, cynamid contains lime, which'also helps in rotting of plant material. Applications disked in with the ripe straw have given better re­ sults than those made at seeding time or the Axt spring. The results indicate that nitrogen fertilizers applied in thia way may be used to replace at least' part of the barnyard manure. Besides the lower cost of this method, the applL cations may be made more easily Printed Table Set**3 .5 0 set17-piece Table Set* in colorful floral print.Shown in Red, Blue, Gold, or Green.

In addition it is less likely to result in some of the harm­ ful effects that follow using barn­ yard manure too often for flue-cured tobacco.

Ingersoll Men Doing Well In Baseball Team* At least three Ingersoll men are doing alright this year playing in outside baseball teams. Ron. Bigham is playing second base for Hamilton and in Saturday's game with Strat­ ford, hit a homer and took his share of a double play. George Hayes and Glen Bradfield are playing centrefield and second base for Stratford Nationals this year and are giving good account of themselves.

Hayes had three hits and two runs and Bradfield had two hits and crossed the plate for two runs.

Shield Horse* From Encephalomyelitis The time is now approaching when encephalomyelitis — the sleeping sickness of horses—usually occurs. So far, scientists have not found atr effective drug remedy but experi­ ence has shown that early vaccina­ tion by a qualified veterinarian is the best preventive. The protection of horses against biting insects is also great help. However, the Vet­ erinary Director General of Canada points out, that while it is not rec­ ommended that all horses should be vaccinated, farmers should be pre­ pared to act promptly if the disease makes its appearance in their dis­ trict or in any neighbouring terri­ tory. In districts where the disease appeared last year, the owners of valuable pure-bred animals would BORNNANCEKIVELL — At Alexandra Hospital, on Sunday, July 2nd, 1944, to Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Nance­ kivell, a daughter, Mary Irene. 8 WIRE Fam Fe$ce 56* AA 20 4 0 A o RmI To e xte ** stock only T .

Sir.”“Well, Alfred, I am quite surethat you won't try this signalinggame again. You don't want to helpthe enemy do you? And it might help him to see a light on a beach like this.” "No. sir." said Alfred humbly."And I should advise you not tosay anything about Miss Hannan'ssignaling either. It does no good. and you have told me, so that's enough," “Yes, sir,” said Alfred, vastly relieved at this let-off. "But if Ihappened to be out any night and saw it, should I tell you, sir?”Horrified at his first instinct,which was to answer In the nega­tive. John set his teeth. “Yes,” hesaid. “But you will have to tell meat once. Come to Pole Star Houseand ask for Mr. Wynter. Don't tellanyone what you want to see mefor; jus: ask for me and go out andstand on the cliff and I shall joinyou immediately.”“Yes. sir,” Alfred suddenly feltimportant. This was like being adetective.“And now I think we had bettermove on. And look here. Thisaffair Is between you and me en­ tirely, do you see? I know the police sergeant well and he's prepared tolet me do anything I like down here, anything within reason, thatis. So all you have to do is to keepyour mouth shut until you havesomething to tell me, in which caseyou must come straight to me as Ihave already told you.”"Very good, sir," and with arespectful salute Alfred started toclamber back over the rocks.Back in the shaded ball of PoleStar House, John Wynter wonderedwhat he should do next. He hadpromised to tell Mrs. Manvers-Pol-lock what had happened. But thedrawing room was empty; everyonehad gone to their rooms so it mustbe later than be thought. He lockedthe front door carefully."You!” As he walked along the little gallery Mrs. Manvers-Pollock opened her door. Clad in a longdressing gown she looked tallerthan usual. “I say, you weren't really worried■' about me. were you,” he asked.“I thought perhaps someone hadkilled you.”"Did you say anything to any-,ooe?”; "No.”"That was brave of you,” said-John warmly*. "I shall have no fear■ot tailing you exactly what happensto future.”"Good night.” Mrs. Manver*- Pok■ Jock stood there just staring at him."Good night,” and then John went1 away.Everything bad its place in thescheme of things, thought Mrs.Manvers-Pollock drearily, exceptherself.John slept badly. He could hear agalp the stifled yelp of young Cum­mins when he caught bim across ' the mouth. Why didn't he bite bim,' wandered John, wandering vaguely■ down the long dim eorridurs ofsemlconsciousneas. It would havd hurt fiendishly with those squared- off white teeth—the eyeteeth a littlelonger than the others. *He woke early in the pitch dark.Hours until be sot his early tea: how was he going to endure It, nowthat be was embarking on this end­ less hideous job of rounding up thegirl he loved. Five o’clock. As hestood there the old clock in the hallaccommodatingly wheezed out thehour. Should he go up to Londonand tell his chief that he must beset free from this job? That some­one else must take it on. Thatalthough he entirely realized thatin bis profession personal considera­ tion counted for nothing at all. he was not able to adapt himself tosuch an outlook. John Wynterburied his face in his pillow andgroaned.His groan deadened the soft open­ing of the door. “Your tea. sir."Grace, to cap and apron, stoodthere."Good God. how did you know Iwas awake?" A fine gentleman de­ cided Grace, smiling her cozy little smile. Such grand pajamas, all stripes and silk and open at thethroat."I heard you open your door,sir,” said Grace, feeling verypleased with herself.John, stuffing a pillow at his back,prepared to drink his tea and eathis bread and butler slowly. Apriceless servant that, he thought.Tea. yes. it was clearing his brain. Ha would get off to London thatmorning on the nine forty-five, seethe chief and tell him as much asbe thought fit. He would tell Mrs.Maturin at breakfast; it was justas well that she should accustomherself to his unexpected comings and goings. "When shall we have the pleasure of seeing you back?" Joan wasstanding to the hall smiling. Whatan awfully good-looking man Mr.Wynter was!"I hope the day after tomorrow,”said John, standing aside to allowMrs. Manvers-Pollock to pass intothe dining room."You aren't leaving us. are you?”Mrs. Manvers-Pollock's hard eyesi-uemcd to blink. He was going.Just as she had got to know him, be was going. "Only for two days," said John, putting his hand on her arm. “AndI’ve got to hurry or I shan't catchmy train.” Mrs. Manvers-Pollockstared bleakly out of the window.Two days . . . what would she findto do for two days? Where didMonsieur go for tea? wondered Mrs.Manvers-Pollock suddenly. Was hebecoming entangled with that aban­doned woman who lived in the littlecottage perched up on the cliff?London is a city of mysteries.-especially in wartime. And. al­though be was accustomed to it,John Wynter felt it again as hewalked along the bare echoing cor­ ridors uf one of the most mysterious official buildings of them aU.On the way up in the train Johnhad decided to make a clean breastof it By doing this he would standor fall, and if he fell be could getinto one of the regiments scheduledfor the East. He would marryOdette before be went, and if hecame back safely he would havelived down his failure tfi make goodin the way they wanted him to makegood. And if be didn't . . .And now he sat smoking and try­ing to breath slowly and evenly.“You wanted to see me.” said E.9.*T can give you exactly half anhour.

And now he would not have to do it He gave a long sigh of relief as the taxislid to a standstill outside the whitegate leading to Pole Star House.But once arrived at the front doorhe hesitated.

The acute need for bette^ ruralhousing that will faea farm familiesin- Canada immediately after thewar will be a war-aggravated need,writes Frank Shefrin, Economic* Division, Dominion Department of Agriculture. Studies of the stand­ ards of Canadian farm homes have indicated that the vast majority of farm families live in houses that cannot be considered adequate sc- cording to any minimum standard. Many house* are beyond repair and replacements are necessary; many need structural improvement* and major repairs; many are seriously overcrowded, and most of them lack the most primitive plumbing facili­ ties, and even running water. An inquiry into farm housing conditions, at the level of facta and figures, in a story of great human need. For the first time, observe* Mr. Shefrin, in the tabling in the House of Commons, Ottawa, of the final report of the Sub-committee on Housing and Community Planning, is given a report on housing and community planning which does not deal only with the shelter problem or urban dwellers, but makes speci­ fic recommendations, including pro­ posals for government assistance, designed to raise substantially the standard of farm housing. Govern­ ment assistance in the building of farm homes may be a new concept in Canada, but in the period be­ tween the two wars, Britain, Bel­ gium, France, Latvia, the Nether­ lands, Poland, Sweden, Czechoslo­ vakia, and Yugoslavia took steps to improve the housing standard of their rural population, farmersj and farm labourers alike. The Sub-committee has made specific recommendations. It stated that at least 125,000 new !#rm buildings were required—of these, 100,000 for replacement and 25,000 to provide separate units for famil­ ies forced to double-up. This figure would have to be revised if an in­ crease in land settlement is con­ templated. In addition, 188,000 buildings are ine deed of external repairs. This takes no account of the internal conditions and facilities of farm homes. * It is recommended that nearly 100,000 homes be built in the first ten years following the peace—at the rate of 5,000 to 15,000 house* per year. Provisions are to be made for this building program in a re-drafted National ■Housing Act which will include a Ration Coupon Due DatesCoupon* now due are tea-coff«a14 to tfi, El to E6, TSO to 35; pre-•ervea, DI to 24; butter 68 to 89;sugar 14 to 37; canning sugar Fl to F10. ■ Butter coupons 82 to 65 ex pi rad June 30th, - Ike—“Where’ve you been?”k Mike— "In a phone booth talking to my girl, but someone wanted to use the phone, m we had to get oat.” BARRI!

NO STARTLING EFFECTS WKAR IT ON YOUR ARM After quite some delay and long careful consideration by the Cabinet, especially in the light of recent oc­ currences and future events, the Government’s sixth wartime budget has brought no startling effects be­ cause it had been anticipated along Parliament Hill, that, though no wide upward movement in taxation would be forthcoming, yet no actual sharp downward changes would be likely on account of the present high tempo of the war as well as the tremendous social welfare plans in the making.

But the point offinterest is that the rate of decrease has indicated a tendency towards improvement in the produc­ tion of gold in this country so that, if this rate will be continued through’ out 1944, there may be a possibility of about 3,200,000 ounces being produced in this year, with the min­ ing of gold in Canada again becom­ ing in time, especially after the war, an extremely important factor in this nation’s economy. up their resi-station vacated EXPENDITURES FOR HOUSING With the subject of housing con­ tinuing to be a lively topic through­ out Canada, it can be reported that disclosures in Ottawa have shown that at the end of March of this year the expenditures under the Do­ minion Housing Act and the National Housing Act reached a total of >20,- 327,495, with the (National Housing Act being responsible for >15,256,- 575.

A crib quilt was also donated by a friend. Mrs. H. Underwood presided over the meeting. Mrs. C. Waterhouse gave the Bible reading during the devotional period and prayer was offered by Mrs. A.

An advertising executive and for­ mer newspaper editor, who long has been one of America’s top spokesmen for the free enterprise system of government, will guide Kiwanis In­ ternational’s more than 2,200 clubs and 132,000 members throughout the United States and Canada during the coming year. Ben Dean of Grand Rapids, Mich., known by thousands of Kiwanians from coast-to-coast, came up the lad­ der the hard way and previous to his election as president of the interna­ tional service otganization, played an active role in the movement of busi­ ness, industry and agriculture to preserve and protect their constitu- ' rights. , Kiwanian for 16 years, Dean not allowed the national picture to undermine his civic responsibility in Grand Rapids, where he is chair­ man of the Better Business Burea, director of the Chamber of Com­ merce, a trustee of the Baptist Church, a former chairman of the Red Cross chapter and one time president of the board of education Dean was elected president of Ki­ wanis International at its 1944 war­ time convention in Chicago. His se­ lection was haild by leaden in all walks of life for he speaks a langu­ age calling for a stable world econ­ omy after the war. Dean has consistently advocated the development of specific commun­ ity plans to meet post-war problems, an orderly but certain demobiliza­ tion of wartime economic controls, the development of fiscal policies which will give the free enterprise system a chance to operate, the re­ habilitation and employment of ser­ vicemen and women, and an enlarged program of education for all who are able to take advantage of it. In a recent nation-wide broadcast, Kiwanis International’s new presi­ dent declared that the problem of post-war employment can be solved only through plans involving free en­ terprise, individual initiative and private industry. He expressed the opinion that “the jobs of our men and women in uniform have the first call on the industries of this country. ” Dean who owns a widely known advertising agency organized in 1919, once served as a reporter and then city editor of the Grand Rapids Herald. Author of a book on furni­ ture styles and contributor to maga­ zines, he is the father of a son fight­ ing overseas and a daughter who is married. As the head of Kiwanis, he will urge clubs to continue their work on behalf of underprivileged children and among boys and girls. He will stress the importance of maintaining cordial relations between the United States and Canada. rHe also will ad­ vocate the need for vocational guid­ ance, support of churches in their spiritual aims and constant vigilance in public affairs.

If the cost of living had been allowed to rise un­ checked, living standards would cer­ tainly have been progressively re­ duced. You know, industry and agri­ culture have undergone tremendous changes in the war years. Food pro­ duction skyrocketed from 40 to 50%. About a million persons have been added to the labour forces. More than 750,000 went into the armed forces. War expenditures last year purchased more goods and services than Canada produced altogether in 1939. Canada’s pension bill in respect to this war will' be enormous. The Min­ ister of Pensions said in the House of Commons that pensions costing |6,97S,000 a year were being paid to 13,215 vetemns of the present war at April 30.

They harbour Insect pest and fungus dis­ eases. While with labour shortage, it may not be possible to give ail the attention needed for cultiva­ tion, it is possible not to aggravate the situation by sowing seed con­ taminated with weed seeds. An advertisement is appearing in this paper, under the title, "Atten­ tion—Tobacco Farm Workers”, set-; ting out National Selective Service I regulations as they apply to flue-! cured tobacco workers. The development of Selective Service Regulations has been by a series of steps, designed to meet changing conditions and to present an unbalanced labour market. It is now deemed advisable to extend Se­ lective Service Regulations to the flue-cured tobacco industry for the following reasons: On account of the current and widespread demands for labour, it is necessary to prevent a serious dislocation of some of the highly ijn- portant war industries, when work­ ers move as heretofore in thousands to work in the tobacco area Due to the heavy investment already made in the crop, tobacco growers are prepared to pay heavily, if need be, to obtain sufficient labour to ensure the harvest of their crop when it is ripe. The rapid develop­ ment of the leaves, which carries them beyond the proper degree of ripeness in a very few days, and the risk of frost creates anxiety in the minds of the growers and prompts them to pay wages beyond those obtained by workers in certain I other occupations. By establishing the permit sy­ stem, it is not the intention of {Se­ lective Service to cripple the to­ bacco growers by preventing the movement of labour to the fields. Rather, to repeat, is it the aim to regulate the flow of labour from other industries so that these indus­ tries will not suffer 'from a sudden exodus of workers preferring to work at tobacco harvesting. Men will leave industry only by previous arrangement with their employer, and some will not be allowed to leave if by so doing they weaken productive lines. On the other hand, iffl is the expressed purpose of Se­ lective Service officials to lend their best efforts to recruit and assist in the movement of all avail­ able labour to the tobacco fields during the harvest period. Selective Service is asking for a whole-hearted co-operation in this undertaking. They ask co-operation from growers in a reasonable ap­ proach to a regulation which al­ ready affects all industry and in a realization that such regulation is applied with honest and impartial intent. They also ask for co-oper­ ation from those industries at pres­ ent employing the workers who will be required to harvest the crop. This co-operation can take the form of a survey before hand of the available labour for the period con­ cerned, and consideration for the tobacco farmers who work hard and are taking big financial* risks to harvest record crop of tobacco against a short season. With such an understanding by all parties, the control and move­ ment of labour can be affected with a minimum loss of man hours to industry but yet make possible the expedient harvesting of Canada’s tobacco crop.

LOOKS AT O tt a w a «v de vwMr sswvwsn W — By Jhn Greenblat — Speaking in the House of Com­ mons on the bill to establish a fed­ eral Department of Reconstruction, Prime Minister King stated there should be no difficulty in securing mony for reconstruction purposes. Having raised money during the war by Ioans and taxation to destroy lives and property hie opinion was that: "When the whole picture is reversed, and it comes to the matter of carry­ ing out constructive work, for the rebuilding of communities, for the supplying of homes necessities and luxuries of life there is going to be a demand for employment the like of which could not arise at any other time." Greatest planning he thought was for the period following transi­ tion when full employment would be very necessary. The jnen and women returning from war will bring back a great resurgence of things spiritual, which should stand Canada in good stead at a critical time. It is so implied in many of the stories coming from battlefronts. Here as an example is a little paragraph from a story con­ cerning the adventure of a famous Canadian destroyer which took part in the Invasion. “There were shell splashes in our vicinity; we saw craft hit, saw them burning, saw them sink . . . but you understood later, the fleeting look that passed over men’s faces as the ship’s radio, tuned at invasion news, suddenly interrupt­ ed its program to say: "And now let us stop a moment to pray, to pray for the success of the Allied invasion forces, and the men in it.” There was a decided drop in the volume of sales of farm implements and equipment of 1943, reflecting government restrictions on manufac­ ture and sale. Domestic sales mainly at wholesale prices totalled 329,- 796,560 against 350,461,523 in 1942. A drop of 41%. Here are the fig­ ures by regions with 1942 sales in brackets: Martime Provinces, 31r 088,830, (31,610,056); Quebec, 33,- 133,424, (34,532,984); Ontario, 37,- 359,877, (313,672,486); Manitoba, 33,446,587 (6,548,306); Saskatche­wan 37,643,580, (312,523,366); Al­ berta, 36.357,970, (310,338,469); British Columbia, 766,292, (31,235,- 857).

Last year more than 100,000 were distributed. This year the appeal is for 142,000, no less and it is surely up to all of us to see that no seaman or sailor who touches our shores, and fights in the cause of freedom which is so dear to us; shall lack a ditty bag at Christmas-time, The Navy League has a fair way of distributing these ditty bags—a a way which has proven very satis­ factory in the past—for it sends all the ditty bags collected to the ports by November 15th, with instructions to its agents that every ship that touches those ports between that date and New Years’ Day, shall re­ ceive a quota of ditty bags sufficient to allow one to every man. As most ships using our ports regularly, visit us once in a period of that length it ensures practically, that all Canadian and Allied ships crews touching Canada are cared for in the matter of ditty bags whether the ships are at sea or in port on Christmas Day. Thousands of letters received by Navy League after past Christmasses testify to the happiness these practi­ cal Christmas cards give, for in a good many cases it is the only link with home to be received on that day. Razors, blades, socks, a "sweater, playing cards, pipe, tobacco, tinned fruit or tinned cake, a small book— those are the kind of things needed in the ditty bag.
