CHURCH
ASSIGNED NEW PASTOR

Much to the regret of the members
of his pastorate, as well as the people
of Medina generally, Rev. s. +. Ross,
pastor of the M. E. church for the past
two years, has been transferred to the
Methodist church at Wadsworth, by
action of the annual conference held
in Cleveland the past week. He will be
succeeded by Rev. w. H. Bryenton OF
Dalton.
Rev. Ross has been a power in his
church and the members sense deeply
his removal. AS public-spirited cit
izen he likewise will be missed as a
loyal and tireless worker in the public
activities of the community. Rev. Ross
is a man of unusual ability and the
church and people of Wadsworth are
to be congratulated upon his being as
signed to that field.
Rev. Bryenton is no stranger to
Medina county people, he having been
pastor of the Brunswick church sew
eral years ago, where he served with
success. A brother, Christopher
Bryenton, is a prominent farmer OF
Litchfeld township. For the past
seven years Rev. Bryenton has served
as pastor of the church at Dalton
which fact alone is significant of his
efficiency and faithfulness. In bidding
goodbye to Rev. Ross, Medina people
extend welcome to Rev. Bryenton
who will occupy the pulpit of the To-
cal church next Sunday.
Other assignments for Medina coun
ty made by the conference are: Bruins
wick, C. M. Gray; Granger, E. H
Thompson; Leroy and Chippewa Lake
A. R. Connell; Lodi, H. W. Courtney
Seville, S. N. Gardner; Sharon AM

SEASON FUEL WbOB ssa 81,
GET BETTER RESULTS
Fuel wood. If seasoned at least
three months, will lose nearly 60 per-
cent of it's moisture and be much more
valuable as a coal substitute, foresters
at the Ohio Experiment Station state:
Green wood cut during September and
October will lose large proportion OF
it's moisture before winter sets in.
Farmers and village people depending
on wood for fuel during winter months
will secure better results from wood
as a fuel if the seasoning period is
observed, the foresters say.
Trees cut in September or October
will lose a considerable portion OF
their moisture, as the drying up of the
leaves will draw sap from the live
wood. Then, when the timber is fcu'
into stove or cord-wood lengths, more
moisture is forced out Of the wood by
the alternate freezing and thawing
This plan of cutting wood is recon-
mended when farm crops demand
much attention during the early
autumn,

ENORMOUS WASTE IN WINTER
Minnesota Dairy Expert Makes Start
ling Statement as to Amount Of
Milk That Is Wasted.

Three and one-half billion pounds Of
milk are practically wasted In the
dairy states every winter. This makes
21.000.O00 pounds every day. The fore
going Is startling statement, but r.
N. Washburn of the division of dairy
husbandry, Minnesota College Of Agri-
culture. says II Is true. The farmer
feeds most Of his skim milk to hogs.
This milk. fed to hogs, produces only
20 per cent of its energy value In edi-
BILE pork. Eighty per cent Of Its ener-
gy value is lost. Mr.. Washburn says,
though, that some milk is necessary to
start pigs Off strongly.
Much more Of the energy value Of
the skim milk will be saved IL 1t is
made into cottage cheese. Every 100
pounds of skim milk. says Mr.. Wash
burn, is equivalent to 20 pounds of or
binary meat, and will make Is pounds
Of cottage cheese. The cheese con-
tains about one-third more protein
and one-third less energy than meat,
and is therefore essentially equivalent
to meat.

What is the new beer and what
about it Much is being said these
days about the new beer now being
manufactured in wet states and which
is to be sold in Michigan, if the wet
amendment is carried by popular
vote.
1t is contended that this is a per-
fectly harmless beverage as it com
tains but rs per cent of alcohol.
Treasury decision No. 261S, which
went into effect January /, 1917, stip-
ulates that on and after January 1,
1918. the alcoholic content of fer
mented malt liquor produced in the
United States Except ale and porter)
must in no case exceed 2 "a per cent
of alcohol by weight; nor shall the
amount of grain or other food or feed
material used by any brewer in the
production of fermented malt liquor
for any quarter exceed 20 per cent of
the amount of grain or other food or
feed material used by such brewer in
the production of fermented liquor
during the corresponding quarter for
the calendar year 1917.
1t will be seen that instead of the
alcoholic content being measured "by
volume, which for so years has been
the universal government standard
of measurement, it is now to be meas
ured "by weight"
Now it is loudly proclaimed by the
vets that whereas beer formerly con-
tanned 3.437 per cent of olcohol, the
new beer contains but 2.75 per cent
and so is much less "beery." The
fact is that because of the difference
betweeR--the specific gravity of olco-
lr.oI af.A h.
weight" is equivalent to 3.437 per cent
"by volume, so that the alcoholic
content of the new beer has not been
reduced but is practically equal to
and, in comparison with some beer, is
slightly greater than heretofore.
The inference is but natural that if
the new beer is as Intoxicating as that
which has made black and bloody his
tory in the past, the new saloon if i'll
should return will be as vicious as it
was in the past.
