New SOlum Farmers Club.

The club met at the school house in
District % on the evening of April
3rd. A very large crowd was pres
ent.
A general discussion on the merits
of the dual purpose COW as compared
with the true dairy type cow, proved
very interesting and instructive.
Mr. Otto Thompson, president of
the South Newfolden Farmers Club,
and also Messrs. Melvin Ihle and Ole
Engstrom Of the same club, were
present and being called upon each
responded with short address on
dairy farming.
The debate which was to have taken
place, had to be dropped on account
of the absence of one or two of the
parties who were chosen as speakers.
The Misses LaVon and LYDIA Batten
and Mr.. Rosco Batten entertained us
royalty with music and songs, which
were highly appreciated by all pres
ent.
After adjournment dainty lunch
was served by the ladies of the club.
If the future is to be measured by
our past meetings, the club seems to
be favorite place to gather for both
old and young. This is as it should
be. By all means, attend the meet
ings, as regularly as possible and
boost the club. In doing this we are
boosting our own community and our
own interests. Knocking never did
do anything ,or anybody any good.
It would be gratifying if as many
as possible of our club would attempt
to grow few varieties each, of gar
den vegetables, grain, grasses, ETC.,
and give it the best care possible so
as to get fine product in order that
our club could send an exhibit to the
county fair, at least, if not to the
state. fair, this fall.
A short business meeting will be
held by our club at the usual place on
the evening of April 18th. No re-
freshmentss will be served at that
time.
| A general meeting of the club will
be held in school house, district No
%, on Saturday evening, May LIST.
A good program will be had, there
will also be debate on the following
subject: Resolved that it pays better
to deal with the home merchant thar
the mail order supply house,"
All are cordially invited.

One good, yet unlocked for, result
of the present world war is the
growth of temperance sentiment
brought about thereby. All the ma
tons engaged in war have taken
more or less stringent measures to
curtail or prohibit the use or manu-
facture of alcoholic liquors. Russia
has put ban on vodka to the great
benefit and blessing of her people
England is trying to rid herself OF
the drink evil and the movement has
spread to Canada. Germany and
France have taken steps to lessen or
do away with the use of liquor. Even
countries not at war, like Sweden and
Norway, have adopted partial pro:
hibition owing to the war. All ma
tions have found that strong drink is
a curse to the people and that they
get along much better without it thar
with it. If King Alcohol gets 9
knock out blow as a result of the war
it will not have been fought in vain.

MAKE EVERY ACRE WORK

: 5 ! s 3
The United States Department of
Agriculture, the state boards and the
experts all over the country are urg-
ing the farmers Of America to Guilt
vate every available acre during the
coming year. The war in Europe as
sures the sale Of almost everything
that can be raised. Every article
that is exported to feed the soldiers
and the citizens and the stock Of Eu-
rope means just that much less for
home consumption, therefore, even
with big crops Of everything, the
prices will be high. If it is not a
good crop year the farmer will at
least raise enough for home use and
will not have to pay the high prices
that will prevail. Utilize every
available acre for grain, grasses and
vegetables. In many sections farm
ers are urged to try double acre
age of potatoes. It should not be
necessary, under proper conditions, to
import potatoes into any agricultural
county. Put the hens and the tur-
keys to work and give them square
deal. Raise pigs, cattle and horses
in as large numbers as the. accommo-
dations of the farm will justify and
any losses that any farmer, planter OF
rancher may have sustained last yea,
will be more than made good. The
war in Europe may last for months
or years, but while it continues there
will be an active demand for every
thing we produce. Should the wal
end this week the nations engaged
will need all our surplus products fo7
a year at least. Take our advice, fo7
once, and do not permit good, tillabl'
land to lie idle in 1915.

A New Variety of Pumpkin.

The state of West Virginia has the
most drastic prohibition laws of any
state in the union, the manufacture of
liquor being forbidden, hence all
breweries and distilleries in the state
have been closed. Those who had the
habit did not relish being weaned all
at once, hence many attempts were
made to evade the law. One ingeni-
GUS method by which liquor was in
troduced into the state by the liquor
men of the adjoining state of Ken
lucky, was to fill pumpkins with
whisky in the fall and let them roll
down a steep bank into the river or
creek which forms the boundary be-
tween the two states, the thirsty
West Virginians from the other shore
being promptly on hand to fish up the
pumpkins as they touched the water
It was also noticed that after opening
up the pumpkins and devouring the
contents, many old fellows looked
wise and carefully slipped the pump
kin seeds into their vest pockets.

KEEPING THE GLOVES CLEAN
One Woman's Simple Continuance
That May Be Recommended as
Most Useful.

Most women are using their furs
now, and since white gloves are 30
popular this year it has become a
problem to keep the gloves clean.
A young woman who is we'll sup
piled with many practical accessories
to dress seems to have solved this
puzzle.
She displayed simple contrivance
made of fancy silk.
The silk was sewed together to
form separate lining and made a
trifle smaller than the regular lining,
with a casing at each end through
which was run elastic drawn up to
hold the lining tight about the wrists.
Use some material that launders
we'll and often. White silk doesn't.
The lining may have to be washed two
or three times a week. 1t is much
easier to wash the lining than to clean
the gloves.

TALK ON WESTERN
CANADA.
You Don't Have to Lie About
Canada-The Simple Truth
Is Enough.

The natural resources of the coun.
try are so vast that they cannot be
told in mere figures. Man can only
tell of what tiny portions have done.
He can only say, Il am more pros
porous than l ever expected to be-"
And yet If a farmer expects to sue
coed on land that he has been forced
to pay $50 to 500 an acre for he ought
to feel assured of attaining prosperity
when he finds the richest prairie soil
at his disposal absolutely free. If he
has a little capital, let him invest it
all in live stock and farm implements
he will find himself ten years ahead
of the game. Some day such chance
will not be found anywhere on the
face Of the globe. But now the same
opportunities await you as awaited
the pioneer and not one hundredth
part of the difficulties he encountered
and overcame. Success in Canada is
made up of two things, natural re-
sources and human labor. Canada
has the one and you the other. A
postal card stands between you and
the Canadian government agent. II
you don't hold these two forces and
enjoy the fruits of the result it is your
own fault.
Debt and Canada viii Not Stand
Hitched.
You want a cozy home, a free life,
and sufficient income. You want edu
cation for your children, and some
pleasure for your wife. You want in
dependence. Your burden has been
heavy, and your farm hasn't paid
You work hard and are discouraged
You require a change. There is a
goal within sight, where your children
will have advantages. You can get a
home in Western Canada, freedom.
where your ambitions can be fulfilled,
If the Prairie Provinces of Canada are
full of Successful Farmers why should
you prove the exception? Haven't you
got brains, experience, courage? Then
prove what these are capable Of when
put on trial. 1t is encouraging to
know that there is one country in the
world where poverty is no barrier to
wealth; own your own car; own your.
self; be somebody.

Interest In Iona Tunlc.

Although many dress skirts are in
circular cut, this is rarely the case
with velvet dresses, as the long tunic
is especially good in velvet. These long
overskirts, as they may be called, re.
quire weight in the cloth to make them
hang gracefully, and are, therefore, an
attractive style for velvet. Circular
skirts are very apt to hang unevenly
in velvet, as the weight of the cloth
drags down the skirt at the sides.
