TRAcTURS USED IN ENGLAND
American Machine Is Meeting With
Pronounced Favor and Many Brit
Ish Farmers Are investing.

Intensive cultivation is not the
only thing that American farmers
can learn from others. In England
farmers are using tractors for plow-
ing, reaping, hauling and light
power purposes on a scale that puts
in the shade the country where the
best tractors are made, observes the
New York Commercial. In some of
the Canadian provinces the local gov
ernments have assisted farmers in
buying tractors. American consuls
report that with British farmers,
usually the most conservative of
mortals, tractors are becoming very
popular because a tractor enables a
farmer to do better work with
smaller staff and it is adaptable to
various uses for which power is re-
quired on the farm.
Several American manufacturers
of tractors are well represented in
England and their sales are growing
fast. Demonstrations of tractors in
operation stimulate demand and
country fairs afford good opportuni-
ties for this. Recently a great plow-
ing match for tractors as well as for
horsodrawn plows was held in con-
junction with the annual county fair
at Brantford, Ont, which attracted
hundreds of farmers, and numerous
orders were booked for deliveries to
farmers clubs all over western On
tario.

Red Cross Notes

We are pleased to make note
of more donations and still there S
more to follow-we hope.
The P. E. O's. donated to the
chapter the $500 received from
the sale of their quilt.
Mrs. L. N. Braden 20 yards of
muslin, so much needed in the
work.
What touched us most was the
donation made by the G A. h.
Post.
On Saturday of last week being
the occasion of their public in
stallatIon, Ia of their members
were present and 10 give little
social touch to the affair several
of the Red Cross ladies were IN
vited and Mrs. Judd was asked
to speak en- the Red Cross wOrl,
which she did in her splendid
manner. 1t so pleased our dear
old Veterans that they I'm medi-
ately voted to donate SIS 90 to the
Chapter. They are still dong
their bit.
Preston, the little four year
cd son Of Ira Scott recently join
ed the Red Cross, and very
proudly wears Red Cross but
ten. The other day while out
playing he saw Mrs. Murphy the
Chairman of the Red Cross Chap
ter coming down the street.
Running into the house he ex-
claimed, "Mamma, take this but
ton off, if Mrs. Murphy sees it
she will want me to knit"

CORN WILL WIN
DEMOCRACY'SW WAR
Americas Greatest Cereal Crop
Is Now Moving to
Market.
MAlNSTAY IN NATIONS CRISIS
Surplus Wheat Of the United States
Has Been Sent to Famine Threat.
ened Europe.

Americas great corn crop, exceed
ing 3,OO0,O0000O bushels, will save the
worlds food situation, officials of the
United States food administration be.
lieve.
Corn is the nations best food cereal.
housewives are beginning to realize.
1t contains all the elements needed to
keep the body In state of health and
when used according to the scores OF
tried recipes, especially when COM
bined with an added portion of oil or
fat, Will sustain life indefinitely. In.
dian warriors in colonial days lived on
parched corn alone for many days at a
time, and at Valley Forge parched
corn was at times the sole ration of
the Continental soldiers.
Owing to transportation difficulties
caused by the war the corn crop moved
more slowly to market this year than
ever before. Now, however, the cereal
is reaching the millers and consumers
In the meantime the nations surplus
wheat has been sent to Europe.
Today there are approximately 30
bushels of corn for every American.
This quantity is greater by five BUSH
els than in former years.
Corn has become the nations main
stay in the crisis of war.
Just as this cereal saved the first
American colonists from famine on
many occasions, just as it served as
staple food during the War of the Rev
olution and during the Civil War, King
Corn has again come to the front in
the nations battle with autocracy.
Corn meal is finding greatly increas-
ed use in the making of ordinary white
bread. Hundreds Of housewives and
many of the larger bakers are mixing
20 per cent. corn meal with wheat
flour to make leavened bread. This
kind of a mixture is worked and baked
in the same recipes and with the same
methods that apply to straight wheat
bread.
Corn bread-using corn meal entire
ly-is gaining greater popularity
than ever before. Housewives are
coming to realize that every pound of
wheat saved In America means a pound
Of wheat released for shipment to the
nations with which America is associ-
ated In the war.
There are a score Of corn products
that today possess unusual importance
for Americans. Corn syrup for sweet
ening corn cakes and buckwheat cakes
and for use in the kitchen instead OF
granulated sugar is one of the leading
products made from corn.
Corn oil, excellent for frying and for
every other purpose filled by salad oils,
is appearing on the market in large
quantities. 1t comes from the germ of
the corn.

WHEN THE FROST IS ON
BY F. &. Sullivan

When the frost is on the pun
kin and the fodder's in the shock
and the winds of chill Move m ber
come, ones B ". DIS. to mock, O
its then a fellers thinkin of the
time that's coming soon when
the radiators Kissing will be the
sweetest tune. And it sets a fell
der guessing, and gets him going
south to know from whence the
coal will come to feed the furnace
mouth. He calls upon his deal
er and orders up ton, feeling
pretty cocky because he's got
the mon; the dealers bin is
empty; when pressed for reason
why, freight traffic is congest-
ed; he'll have some bye and bye.
The railroads say they've plenty
of cars and lots of time, could
carry all the coal required; the
fault is with the mine. The own
ers of the mines declare they're
stra;ning every nerve and work
ing every day and night with
might and main and verve; 1.-THE
Labor Leaders called a strike,
the men laid down their picks.
and for lack Of help to run the
mines the country's in fix"
The Labor Unions then affirm in
language terse and plain that the
blooming blasted plutocratlc gov
ernment's to blame. And so, in
stead of trying to fix the blame
yourself, you'll save your time
and trouble, your money and
your health, if you refuse to
worry as to what the reasons are
and pass the buck to Garfield, or
blame it on the war.
