FOOD RULES
 FOR INVALIDS

Recent regulations by the British Ministry of Food indicate that invalids are to be well cared for. The regu- lations allow a greatly increased ya- ton to sufferers from milk cases of diabetes and from tuberculosis. Dia- betics are allowed the maximum of 2 and 1-2 pounds of butchers meat, 1 pound of bacon and 1-2 pounds of butter or margarine weekly. Tubercu- losis sufferers are allowed 8. maximum of 2 1-2 pounds of meat, l pound of bacon, and 1 pound of butter weekly, in view of the fact that protein and fat are necessary to the diet of con sumptives.
 Most foods, besides milk, which are important in cooking for the sick such as eggs, fish, rice and flour-are not ratfoned. For all who need it, extra milk may be obtained through local food controllers. The Ministry of Food states that applications for white flour should be reduced to a minimum, since it has been shown that war bread when properly baked and chewed is as digestfble as white bread, though it may not be so pa1atable. With the allowances made by the Food Controller, it is possible for invaldis of all classes to receive suitable foods and enough for their needs.

 NEWS LETTER
Special to The Times.)

Newtown, July S-The derailnent of several cars of long freight train southbound about 6 o'clock Sunday night at Keating's Crossing, one-half mile below Newtown station, tied up traffic for several hours, did much damage to the tracks, caused much loss in freight stuffs but no injury to train crew occurred. The trouble was caused by the dropping down of a brake bar on g. car which tore up lies for four rail lengths, permitting the rails to spread eliminating in a buekling up of several freight cars and the overturn of an open coal car across both tracks. The soft coal on this car was neatly dumped into the private road of M. J. Kea.lpE. The evening passenger traics IrSsE7ferred passengers arounS the wreck, two hours late, and a wreck car and crew from New Haven worked till near midnight to clear the tracks.

tired Episcipal minister who resides on Main street, is the father of this trio of patriots. He only regrets that he cannot stand shoulder to shoulder with his boys and help defeat the foes of his country. He is, however, active in every movement here to back up the men at the front. Rev. Philip Coholan, former curate of St. Roses church, and Rev. James liar din George, who had been doing mission work in the West, are the others in this quartet among the pre- | lates and patriots of the Allied armies. Dr. Charles H. Peck, former 1 surgeon in chief of Roosevelt hos pital, New York, was the first native of Newtown to land in France, having volunteered to lead the Roosevelt hospital unit at the opening of hos i tilities in Europe. His son, c. How ard Peck, who lost his life in the line of duty in May, 1918, was the first Newtown boy to make the su- preme sacrifice. Miss Kathryn Ho- nan, the trained nurse, is the first of Newtown's daughters to volunteer for Red Cross work in France. Her brother. Michael J. Honan is now ir the army, and she expects her or. ders to sail any day. The following is the local list of the heroic band oi crusaders against Hun ferocity in the old world:

At this time of the year most people
suffer from a condition often called

One of the most attractive booklets
issued recently is the year book put
out by Swift & Company, covering the
activities of the big packing concern
during the year 1917. Serving as an
Introduction is the address of the vice
president, E. F. Swift, to the stock
holders, in which he tells of the abnor-
mally high prices paid for live stock
In Chicago and of the prices obtained
for meat; of the investigation by the
federal trade commission, and the IL
censing by the government of food dis
tributing agencies and the limiting OF
profits on slaughtering and meat pack
ing to 8 per cent on money employed.
Mr.. Swift also told with pride of the
$500 employees who had entered the
various branches of the United States
service, and concluded with the state
ment that Swift & Company would do
their utmost to help win the war.

PROOF OF EARLIER THRIFT
Youngster Quick to Perceive Gov. BAN.
berger Had Not Just Recently Be-
gun to Save.

In Salt Lake City short time ago
Governor Bamberger addressed class
of children in one of the public schools.
He talked thrift and saving to them
and illustrated his remarks by show
ing the boys and girls how the United
States government was giving them an
opportunity to save through the medi-
UNI of war savings stamps.
'See," he said, holding up card on
which there We're three stamps, Il
have already saved 70 cents. and you
boys and girls by saving your pennies
and nickles can soon accumulate more
than that"
The governors suggestion made a
deep impression upon some of the chill
dren, particularly one little boy. This
youngster waited at the door until gov.
enor Bamberger came out.
"Say, governor" he said, "you must
have learned to save before you bought
war stamps, didn't you? If you didn't,
how did you get that big automobile?"

WHERE FARMING
IS PROFITABLE
The Future of Great Possibilities.

Some idea of the great wealth that
the Western Canada farmer had in
view few years ago is now being real
lied. The amount received from the
sale of wheat, oats. barley, flax anu
rye in 1917 was S27O,O00,000, while the
sales of live stock at Winnipeg alone
nettcd S4O,OO0000 additional. OF TINS
sum hogs alone gave over eleven mil
lion dollars The increases at Calgary
and Edmonton were over GA million
dollars.
This money, so easily earned, is he
ing spent in improvements IN 1arIi
property. purchasing additional land
buying tractors, automobiles, and IN
proving home conditions, providing
electric light, steam heat, new turhl-
ture, pianos, buying Victory bonds,
paying off old debts. etc.
Over five hundred tractors were sold
in Southern Alberta in 1917. one
implement agent reports that the IN
crease in his business in 1917, over
that of 1916, was equal to the total
business in 1915. 1t is the same story
all over the country. And it is rot
this evidence alone which proves the
advancement and growth of the three
prairie provinces, but the large IN
crease in the number of settlers; the
Improvement in the extent of the cul-
tfvated areas and agricultural produc-
ton; the increase in value OF when
over 1916 was SIT 100000.
This wonderful progress that has
been made in agriculture in Western
Canada is but the beginning which
marks the future of the greatest agri-
cultural country on the continent,
showing a future of great possibilities.
There are millions of acres yet I'M
TILED, and of land as good as any OF
that which is now giving its owners
return of from twenty to thirty dollars
an acre, figures that in many cases
represent the cost of the land, with all
cultivation costs included. 1t is true
that the cost of production has in
creased during the past few years, but
the price of the product has also in
creased to figure which leaves
large balance to tie credit of the pro-
Queer.
