CAN OR DRY FARM PRODUCTS
Fruits and Vegetables Can Be Gath
cred and Treated When at Proper
Stage OF Ripeness.

1t is particularly desirable to can or
dry the fruits and vegetables raised
on the farm as the raw products can
be gathered and treated when absO-
lutely fresh and at just the proper
stage Of ripeness and tenderness for
best results says the United States
department Of agriculture.
The average farm family probably
cans annually more than $50 quarts
Of fruits and vegetables, the greater
part Of which is fruit. Canning clubs
have been instrumental in stimulating
interest in canning on the farm. The
drying of fruits and vegetables an old
farm art until recently on the decline,
has been revived quite generally with
in the past two years. This process
offers good means Of preserving
pershables without entailing expense
for containers. as in canning.

PLENTY NEXT DOOR"
Record Harvest Predicted for
Canada.

After having made q careful sur
vey OF the wheat producing area of
the United States, experts whose husi-
ness II Is to keep the people informed
on the acreage sown to fOodstuifs
state that this year there will be a
falling Off in the wheat production in
the States, due TO considerably less
experts Is that the decrease will be
several hundred million bushels OF
wheat less than In previous years,
which according TO past experience
will be scarcely sufficient to meet the
requirements Of the demands of the
people of this country.
In Canada however, the situation
Is different Reliable reports on the
crop situation throughout Western
Canada are such as to create the most
substantial optimism. Never nefore
We're the prospects so encouraging for
bumper harvest. 1t is predicted
that the yield this year will be even
greater than in 1915, the year of the
record harvest in Canada, when the
total production was 393542 600
bushels, Not only is the wheat looking
excellent, but the same Is true Of oats.
barley and flax, of which a greatly
increased acreage has been sown in
the great grain producing provinces Of
Canada.
The rains that have fallen recently
have come at the right time TO stimu-
late growth and there Is now consider
able moisture in the ground. With
the world generally facing a shortage
of wheat and continued heavy de
mand for It, the price is likely TO be
maintained at the present high figure.
In many districts corn has been more
extensively planted than in previous
years and II is looking remarkably
we'll. Many settlers from the United
States who came to Western Canada
and bought improved farms in the
early spring have every prospect of
crop yield that will give them re-
turn sufficiently large. after paying
all current expenses, to pay off large
part of their capital investment.
Livestock is in excellent condition

EATONIC Users
DO This-Get the
Greatest Benefits

Chicago, Ill.-Thousands of reports
from people all over the U. S. who
have tested Eatonic. show the greatest
benefits are obtained by using it for
few weeks taking one or two tablets
after each meal.
Eatonic users know that 1t stops
BeIching, Bloating, Heartburn, and
Stomach Miseries quickly, out the
really lasting benefits are obtained by
using Eatonic long enough to take the
harmful excess acids and gases entire
iy out of the system. This requires
little time, for Eatonic takes up the
excess acidity and posons and carries
them out of the bee and of course,
when it is all removed, the sufferer gets
well, feels fine-full of life and pep.
II you have been taking an Eatonic
now and then, be sure and take it regu-
larry for time and obtain all of these
wonderful benefits. Please speak to
your druggist about this, so that he can
tell others that need this help. Adv,

hundreds Of people saw a COmprehen-

At the different centers girls cOmpe-

fruit and vegetables, showed how to
make a pectin test, and gave direc-

groups demonstrated the uses Of differ

avoid or overcome difficulties which
might arise with them
Each Fair Different.
Each fair was different in character.
At one center the commercial side Of
canning was emphasized. The club
girls there were finishing a large order
given them by the county for the tu-
brrculosis hospital. With a small or

given the entire order. one thousand
cans of beans, 900 gallons Of peaches,
aud 125 gallons each of apric0ts, Der
ries and tomatoes were put up by the
club girls for the county hospital. Six
hundred gallons of tomatoes were
wanted. but the entire order could not
be filled, as school opened and the
school kitchens used for the canning
centers were needed.
