Cold Vulcanizing Perfected.

Experiments conducted by the Man
chester. England. College of Technology
have led to the discovery of an important
process for vulcanizing which is expected
to have far reaching effects on the rub
Der manufacturing industry. An official
report states that in the new vulcanizing
process two gases are used sulphurated
hydrogen and sulphur dioxide-which re-
act on each other to produce water and
free sulphur. which vulcanizes the rub
Der. The Importance of the discovery is
said to lie in the fact that it makes col
vulcanizing possible. One claim is that
the discovery will make possible the man
ufacture of one piece boots without stitch
ing, and that its use will extend to the
manufacture of linoleum flooring, artific-
ial leather, upholstery, and wall paper,
and probably affect the prodUction of
rubber tires.

of US, what we should think of ourselves,
and what God thinks of US. ;"

church was very prettily decorated with
long stems of white yucca flowers and
large bouquets of phlox and pleurisy root.
The hymns were those that all knew and
were well rendered. The Revs. Heimer

Loss OF Appetite.

As a general rule there is nothing seri-
pgs about loss of appetite, and if you
skip meal or only eat two meals day
for few days you will soon have a rel
ish for your meals when meal time comes.
Bear In mind that at least Ave hours
should always eIapse between meals so as
to give the food ample time to digest and
the stomach period of rest before
second meal is taken. Then if you eat
no more than you crave and take rea-
sonable amount of outdoor exercise every
day you will not need to worry about your
appetite. When the loss of appetite is
caused by constipation as is often the
case, that should be corrected at once.

as mental and no information of an
authentic nature in regard to the
cost of production was presented to
the public. The American Farm Bu-
reau Federation, it seems to me, is
the great hope of a fast declining az
riculture. Thru this agency produc-
ton cost will be presented to all, and
the farm will show a production cost
below which farmers cannot sell.
Secondly, agriculture will come
to it's W and be recognized as a
great calling-the greatest of all in
America. Thirdly, it will stay that
dangerous and deplorable condition
now prevailing of the title of the soil
passing from the tiller into the hand
