The power factor loss­ es, with the aasiatance of the recenlty installed static condenser, have been practically eliminated. Chairman J, V- Buchanan presided over the meeting and acting Mayor 3. L. Shelton represented the town council. The roading of the minutes of the previous meeting received the usual endoraatlon. A communication from ths Canad­ ian Fire Underwriters stated that they received the information fa re­ gard to the installation of the now fire pump and that an inspector from their office would soon make fas required inspection of the apparatus. A letter from the Jordan Roberta Co. was received enclosing aa ac­ count. The municipal council submitted a copy of the resolution demanding that acting-mayor Shelton be paid >37.50 of the salary cheque due May­ or McCarty for his swvfca* during the mayor's absences In regard to the communication Commissioner Elliott asked for a copy of the Act governing this mat­ ter and it was clearly stipulated that fas eommisaion has no power to trans­ fer any amount of a commissoner's salary to an acting member, without tee approval of tee Ontario HyAo Electric Connnissfan.

What we are after, first of all, is the return of prosperity. Among farmers, bankers, industrial magnatos, labor leaden, educators, common oWrens, thous­ ands are watching the commodity index and kindred statistics, to see whether prosperity is “just around the corner". Even the threat of war and the problem of world peace must be postponed for the full din­ ner pail. If incidentally we shall ar­ rive at a larger measure of social justice, a fairer distribution of the returns of our economic activities, we shall be glad, but the first thing is prosperity.. Shall we'never learn the lesson. “Seek ye first the Kingdom and all these things shall be added unto (you I" "Establish peace, punish the oppressor, judge the widow and fatherieas, and then come and let us reason, saith the Lord." The moral and spiritual ideals are primary, not secondary. They furnish the dynamic of the social order. It is not neces­ sary for us to be prosperous, it is necessary for us to be decent and true. It id not even necessary for us to have food. Men have starved be­ fore now for a great cause. The historian Green tells ua that England escaped a French revolu­ tion becaueo for a generation and more, the Wesley religious movement hod been spreading the principles of righteousness and love among the people, so -that the ends of social reform were attained without revo- olution. We can not lift ourseivs by our boot straps, we can not strong-arm prosperity. iBut we can preach right­ eousness and brotherhood in season and out of season, taking care first to practise it ourselves. We can en­ throne the spirit above the flesh. When that day comes, full measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over will be poured out for living.Everywhere excessive taxation is forcing property out of owner*' hands, sapping the life-blood of busi­ness, small and targe, and taking necessities out of the home* of every citizen.And governments—municipal, pro­ vincial and federal—prate about “fixed expenditures" as though they were acta of God instead of items that any private business would have to unfix downward or go smash.

WEST OXFORD COUNCIL •From the Minneapolis Journal Abolish Waste and Provide Employment “Unless some relief is afforded from the excessive burden of taxa­ tion it Is difficult to see how an in­ crease in gas rates can be avoided." So say* the president of the Con­ sumers' Gos Company, Toronto. In addition to their already back- breaking tex burden it seems likely that it is going to cost citizens of Toronto more to cook and keep warm —all because governments, (munici­ pal, iproviarial and federal,) continue blandly to live beyond their incomes. Figures so gigantic u those in­ volved in Canada's yearly railway debt numb the mind. You can't grasp them. You just provide the money. Think of the extra cash you would have to spend on your childrens education, on clothing, on household supplies, on insurance, on vacations, on a hundred and one things that would give employment to others, were your purse not flattened by taxes imposed to pay railway deficits and the costs of maintaining a top­ heavy administrative system that given ten governors, ten parliament*, ten ministere of agriculture, to a population little target than that of greater New York. Senator Lawrence Wilson, in 1926, resigned his east in the House of Commons because he could not get action against wealthy racketeers who were defrauding the govern­ ment of income taxes. Since then collection ha* been stricter, but evasions are still so numerous that Senator Wilson contemplates re­ signing from the Senate in protest Recently, over the protest of the tax collection dopartmunt, n cabinet minister bargained with an income tax delinquent and ordered accept­ ance of but a tithe of the huge amount owed.

T. U. was held at the home of the president, Mrs. Bowes, and was open­ed by singing "Jloy to the World," followed by ■prayer by Mix Milling­ton. The Bible lesson was read by Mra Armstrong, taken from Matt 2nd chapter, announcing the birth of Christ. Thia was followed by ring­ ing, “Hark the Herald Angels Sing." All then joined du the Lord's. Prayer. This concluded this port of the meet­ ing. The business part was then taken by the president Mra. Arm­ strong, read the secretary’s report, in the absence of Mra. Warden. Two letters were read by the correspond­ ing aecrotany, Mrs. Armstrong. A short discussion was then held on the idea of putting on a Temperance Pageant in the near future, after which Mrs. Bowes sang a very nice solo. The members then took up ths reading of the Clip Sheet, dealing with facta about beer, one of which we will give here: The brewing and malting industries offer prizes at county fairs to encourage the farm- era in growing malting barley, and it has been called the farmers' best cash crop, but there is less barley needed to p reduce beer than is com­ monly supposed. For example the Bureau of Industrial Alcohol, in its latest table shows that one bushel of 48 pounds of barley will make 1 1-10 bushels of malt and a bushel of malt (34 pounds), will make a barrel of beer containing 31 gallons. That u tone bushel of barley will produce 546 one-half pint drinks of beer. Louis J. Tiber, a world recognized authority on agricultural questions, as Master of the National Grange of America, say» in this connection: A million drinks of beeF, and a mil­ lion drinks of whlskqy will consume a relatively small amount of grain. On the other hand, a million glasses of milk and a million pork chops, 252 DUNDAS ST. LONDON, ONT. Phone .

From a reader in Victoria, British Columbia, I received a query not long ago, vrftich I am sure, will in- torest many /other housekeepers. She asked me to tel] her how jelly might be made from loganberries, raspberries and other fruit* without the use of sugar. Of course.woman who makes her own jams and jellies is In­ terested in saving sugar in th® var­ ious processes. To al) of them I can say—it is not possible to make jelly from any fruit entirely without the use of sugar. Gelatine may be flav­ ored with the fruit juice and will, if the purpose. But a mixture of this sort cannot "be kept for any length of time. •However, the amount of sugar used can he lessened considerably if the juice is evaporated from the fruit by first cooking it without water. Really fine results may be secured by this piethod.

News and Information For The Busy Farmer (Fairnishad by the Ontario Department of Agriculture) Ontario ia still available, but it is being fed at a rapid rate owing to the early winter. The movement to principal .consuming centres has been draggy, but the general demand for hay is expected to improve as the winter advances. Alfalfa hay has been in fair demand all fall for the manufacture ef alfalfa meal for which there has been an excellent export demand. As a reeolL the supply of second cut alfalfa hay for grinding is rapidly diminishing. Cur­ rent prices being paid growers are: No. 2 timothy, >6.60 to $6 per ton; mixid hay. *4.60 to IMS; alfalfa, find cuL 19 to |10; rifalfis, 1st cut, |7 to |8; oat straw, |3 to |3.50; wheat straw, |3.25 to |3,76. Branded Table Turnips Enjoy Great Attention One feature of the Royal Wintei Fair which mult be numbered amongst those receiving the greatest attention, was the exhibit of brand­ ed table turnips, an integral port of this Deportinent’a booth. Each day, from early morning till the show closed, producers and con­ sumers wore crowded around this dis­ play, and hundreds of questions were answered. This is conclusive proof that a high-clam product, properly prepared for market, can always be depended upon to gain interest, and gaining interest ia perhaps tha most difficult etep in successful merchan­ dising. Lack of Bill ef Lading Results ia Huge Losses Records of actual losses by live­ stock shippers totalling $28,000 through truckers failing to pay for stock are in the possession of the Weekly Sun, states the Ontario Mar­ keting Board. How many tbotisends of dollars have teen lost from unre­ ported cases is not known but the total would be eonri durable. The Highways Act now enables every farmer to require a trucker or drover to furnish a bill of lading. This affords the shipper an opportun­ ity to decide to whom hie live stock will be sold, assures him he will got hh money back, and provides that a full and correct etatemant of weights and prices paid by the purchaser will be returned to the owner. Every shipper of stock by rail is protected by law through the mani­ fest or bill of lading which the rail­ way is required to fane to him. Tha Marketing Board suggests shippers to avail themselves of the same pro­ tection on truck ahipmenta which the Highways Act makes possible. Roots For Boof Catt]* When roots are fed to beef cattie, turnips are invariably used, as St is fairly generally reooguized that tur­ nips are more suitable for fatten­ ing purposed than mangles, the latter bring butter suited for milk produc­ tion. Experiments in the feeding of roots to beef cattle conducted at the various Experimental Farms and Stations have proved that roots have a high value for thia purpose. Roots are particularly valuable when no other succulent feed is available. Pulped and mixed with cut or chaff­ ed straw, or poor quality hay, they improve the palatability and feeding quality of these coarse roughages very much. Hay Market Report An official report on the hay mar- ketting situation show* that in East­ ern Ontario the crop was short again thia year, but there has been little movement of market hay a* yeL Cur­ rent prices to growens are reported aa follow*! In the St. Lawrencs Counties, timothy,, |1« to $14; In the Ottawa Valley, from >3 to 111 ac­ cording to kind, and straw M to 14.10 per ton. In Northern Ontario hay prices range from *11.60 to $18, according to th* location. The hay crop in Western Ontario was heavier tisw last year and ot better quality. Thea* ia also a con­ siderable carry-over from th* pre­ vious yw , particularly of timothy and graa* mixtures. I* is estimated that about W per tea t of last y w ’* Keeping up th* Winter Egg Production There should be a laying mash in hoppers before the flock at all times, also hoppers to grit, oyster shell and charcoal. Water must be continuous­ ly supplied, and when poaible milk. For green feed, wel] cured second out alfalfa hay chopped and eteeped ia exerilenL In addition, advises the Dominion Poultry Husbandman, give a light feed of scratch grain in the morning and a full feed at nWbL in the proportion of about 2 of scratch to 1 of mrah, the amount being var­ ied according to the condition of the flock. If the birds are putting on too much weight, reduce the scratch feed. Lf they are losing body weighL Increase the grain. Official Crop Report The dry bean acreage thia year fa placed at 52,300 acres, with an aver­ age of 14.9 busheb per acre, giving an estimated total' production of ty and the yield extremely variable. The price bring received by growers fa considerably more than teat year and in spite ot * much smaller crop, financial return* will be larger than laat year. Sugar beets are yielding better than weather conditions early in the season indicated. The acreage shows soma reduction from last yew being 33,300 la 1938 and 81,900 this year. Production in 1932 was ertimatad at 833,000 tone and in 1933 at 319,000 the yield of sugar will be greater than in 1932, although the total tonuag* of beets is less. The persistent decline in price* of agricultural products in Ontario, which commenced in AugusL 1929, and continued uninterrupted for over three years has been checked and definitely reversed thia year. Some gains have been outstanding, while others have been of moderate pro­ portions only. During the P**t 12 months select hogs have incneued from |4,32 perewL to 16.46 per cwL, W. O. C., Toronto; good lamb* from. |4.76 to |6.00 per cwL; wool from 6c to 9e par lb.; whole milk (Toronto dairies) from |1.45 to 11.81 par cwL; beans from 55c to 90c per boo., and wheat from 45c to 65c per bus. High Qwdiy Chnwa Ths quality of the cheee* produced in Canada this year fa the best it haa ever been since compulsory grading for export w» initiated in 1923, and th* Dominion has established a new record up to the end of October with 94.63 par renL flrot grade chaita. This represents aa increase of 1.18 per cent, over the same period in 1932, and it is abn about ona par eenL higher than any previoua rec­ ord during the part eleven years. The actual increase in the percentage of first grade ehees® during this fa 16.63, but this does not tell thb , whole rtory, a* the quality ot Canad­ ian first grade cheese fa of a mneh higher standard now than in the early years of grading. The flavour and texture of the cheese and tho appearance of the shipment* hav* much improved.

She came to the conclusion that she would do nothing until Sunday. With Will and Old Charley helping, she could get Ann to come for a ride in the machine on some pretext or other. They would take her to the gulch and show her what the voice was. Then, without returning to the ranch they would all go into town and place the whole thing in Martin's hands.On Saturday Ruth and David ar- NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY Ruth entered the gully which ran eastward a few yards south of the bouse, and followed it At last she stopped beneath an ash tree which had a low branch. With the paring knife she cut the potato in half and made numerous little cuts in the white sur­ face. Into this surface she rubbed a pinch of powder from the liver fever box She placed the piece of potato on the branch of the tree and, walking a short distance away, seated herself in the shade to wait, her eyes on the potato. She waited more than an hour and was about to give up when a little gray bird flew down from the top of the ash tree and alighted on the branch. After a moment the bird hopped to the potato, looked it over, and took a -fer She looked into every depres­ sion, behind every bowlder. Ruth watched so intently that her several bites when it ceased and moved away from the potato, it stood upon a small twig and jerked its head as though trying to shake something from’ its mouth or throat. Then the little Ruth buried the bird and the piece of potato, then walked slowly back to the bouse. Her face was pale and her not bear the bird at all, although David, behind her on the bowlder said, "Hear it!", at regular intervals. The sound seemed to come from the south in a narrow band.

Ten yards from the diff a bird flew out of a waist-high bush and darted up the gulch, Ruth ran to the bush. It was a very ordinary bush, rather sparse, differing in no way from any other bush. A foot or so behind it rose Hr wall of sandstone. To left and right, ran other bushes, growing as dose to the wall ■» they could find earth, none of them tall Then Ruth saw something which her eyes would have missed six months before—in the bush was a dry stick about two feet tall with a forked top. This stick did through the fence, went to the box He returned with the roll of papers and magazines. "Threes' a letter here too. Mama,” he said, as he held up the roll. Ruth worked the letter from under the string about foe package and looked at it curiously. It was ad­dressed to her old apartment in Phila­ delphia; foe writing was unfamiliar, a child's writing. The original postmark was undecipherable, but as she opened the letter Rufo noticed that it bore a foreign stamp.Ai her eyes met the first few words of the crudely written letter, Ruth’s expression of mild curiosity was sud­denly wiped out. She uttered a cry and her face went white. She eat on ber bone like one entranced, lips parted breathlessly, eyes lUrinr at the paper. Both David and Sandier looked on with interest.

Place all farm equipment under­ cover at this time of year, but store it with a view to convenience in re­ moving to repair during the winter- In repairing inspect all the field machinery; tighten all frame bolte; clean and wash the bearings with coal oil or gasoline; overhaul and straighten all bent members, replace unserviceable parts; sharpen all Cut­ ting edges and apply a coat of paint where required. Winter repairing in­ sures against breakdowns, loss and annoyance in rush seasons. Storms Soybeans By this time no doubt, al! soy­ beans have been threshed and some attention should be paid to the stor­ age of this seed. If the beans have been threshed in good condition, that ia with a reasonably low content of moisture, storage will not be dif­ ficult On the other hand, a high moisture content adds to the danger of spoilage when stored. It has been recommended that storage in bags, which may be moved occasionally, will largely prevent tha danger of heating which is prevalent in large piles and will facilitate the market­ ing of the beans in good condition. Apple Crop Report ■The quantity of the apple crop in Ontario is superior to that of last year. Some damage was sustained due to early frosts on October 24th and 25th. The last estimate of ap­ ple yield in September indicated a commercial crop of 1,069,000 barrels which wijl be reduced by the cause just mentioned. The output in 1932 was 918,500 barrels. Exports have been exceptionally heavy and up to November 7th this season 238,000 barrels had been shipped from On­ tario os compared with a total of 132,900 barrels up to November 25 last season, The high rates prevail­ ing for sterling are proving a very favourable factor—the present rate of sterling is $5.25 as compared with 13.77 a year ago. of grain and seed open to Agricul­ tural Societies was awarded to Earl­ ton Society Temiskaming District. Thin WM a well earned reward for enterprise in a pioneer disrtict where a community seed cleaning plant was established by the Agricultural So­ ciety only this year. Thio Society also won the wheat championship on a very fine entry of Garnet. The Agricultural Society Class is a new feature of the Winter Fair which aroused much interest as evi­ denced by 14 societies entering in­ cluding exhibits from 70 farmers. As no member of a Society could contri­ bute more than one lot of grain or seed many new exhibitors were en­ couraged to venture. Prise winners were as follows: 1. Earlton Agricultural Society, $50.00. 2. Pakenham, Agricultural Socie­ ty, $4000. ... Carp Agricultural Society, $80.00. 4. North Lanark (Almonte) So­ ciety, $20.00. 5.

Proper ventila­ tion is very important and a temper­ ature of 3-4 degrees Fahrenheit should be maintained.

Official Crop Report The latest official crop bulletin shows that with the exception of sugar beets, the yield per acre of *11 field crops in Ontario thia year iz below last year. A severe period of drought and intense heat during July reduced the yjeld of spring grains and hay and clovor crops. During August and September more favour­ able growing wgather prevailed and the yield of late crops turned out much better than mid-summer proa- pec ta indicated. The volume of pro­ duction of all field crop® for 1933 ia about 8 per cent below 1932. But farm price* show considerable im­ provement over last year and are 15.6 per cent higher. As a result the value of these crops is estimated to be $121,553,000, compared with $114,150,500 in 1932, or an increase of $7,403,000 in »pite of the smaller output. Fall plowing got away to ■ good start but was made difficult by dry weather and later by heavy snow­ falls. Farmers planned to sow a nrueh larger acreage of fall whrat but ow- ing to lack of soil moisture, many fields that were already prepared, 1 were not seeded. The sown acreage of fall wheat is estimated at 630,700 acre* compared with 595,000 in 1932, an increase of 6 per cent. The con­ dition of fall wheat at the end of October was 96 per cent, of the long­ time average and fall rye 95 per cent O. A. C.

The moment the opening closes as a result of thickening of the lin­ ing trouble begins. The gravity of the situation depends on the severity of the inflammation, the type of th« in­ fection and the reaction to it?*nd ■the degree of circumscription of the proeeaa. If the inflammation subsides with­ in twenty-four hours, the opening of the appendix is restored and drain­ age into the gut re-established. If the infeation is promptly met by an in­ crease in phagocytes (the white blood cells that destroy germs) It is overpowered.

The appendix is located at the junction of the large and small in­ testine, and is from two to three inchre long and % to’A inch in diam­ eter. It has a narrow canal which communicates with the intestine at one extremity and ends blindly at the other, like an elongated a*ek. Tha "Function’’ of th® Appandix What its function is haa never been conclusively demonstrated. Kot only that, but it Is highly im­ probable in the writer’s opinloi-thtt it has any function. * One theory has been that toe ap­ pendix secretes a fluid which has to do with the digestion of egg albumin. But the fact that its canal closes in moat persons after the age of forty and they still eat eggs make* this theory unsound. Furthermore, people live on after surgical removal of the appendix, indicating that it serves no vita! purpose.
