Wheat Marketing Cards to
be Made Available in County

from wholesale marketing OF ex-
cess wheat. Wheat marketing
cards are essential to the orderly
marketing of wheat, Mr.. Cole de-
clared.
Farmers who have Xcess wheat
may do one of three things with
the excess, Mr.. Cole pointed out:
% The xee wheat may be
stored on the farm or in an eleva-
tor in accordance with regulations:
(2) Excess wheat may be deliver.
ed to the Secretary OF Agriculture
for use in distribution to relief; or
(3) A penalty Of 40 cents per bush
Ell may be paid on the xcess
Stored excess wheat Is eligible for
a loan at so per cent of the
regular loan rate. A wheat market
ing card Will not be Issued to a
farmer with excess wheat until the
excess wheat is taken care OF.
The intent of marketing quotas
is not to force farmers to pay a
penalty of 40 cents per bushcl
on the wheat they produce in ex-
Isl Of their farm quota. but rath-
pr TO hold excess wheat of the
market until II is needed, Mr.. Cote
added, and marketing cards are
are necessary to provide a check
on this excess wheat.

Wheat marketing cards will be
available to Washtenaw County
wheat farmers, according to Harry
NJ. Cole. secretary of the Washte-
nav County Triple-A committee.
Every farmer who expects to sell
wheat will need a wheat marketing
card.
Marketing cards r made avail
able to wheat farmers as a means
OF showing that their wheat is ell
gible to be sold without penalty.
II excess wheat is sold, the person
purchasing the wheat must pay
the 10 cent penalty. Elevator
operators and cther buyers of
wheat are cooperating with farm
ers in the administration of-the
marketing quota law by requesting
that all farmers have a wheat mar
keting card before selling their
wheat. This not only protects them
against buying excess wheat on
which the penalty. has not been
paid, but also protects wheat grow
ers from price depression resulting

Tin Cans Not Tin Cans,
Says Carlton F. Sturdy

BUTTE, MULTIPLICATION F.
Sturdy. executive OF the American
Can Co, which makes millions OF
cans a year, has debunked the time
honored belief in the American tin
can. by definitely taking the tin OUT
of it.
Sturdy told the Montana Food
Distributors Association that the
American tin" can is In reality
made of steel and that the only
tin used in its manufacture is a
thin coating for the purpose OF pre-
venting rusting.
The steel used, he declared, is
Just as sterile and Is as carefully
selected as that for the finest sur
gical instruments.
The amount Of tin IN these steel
containers. he said, is only 1.3 per
cent.
Sturdy declared that all tin cans
are sterilized and food left in them
is much safer than when 1t Is emp
tied into a dish.
He advocated all food, whether
left in the original container or
emptied into a dish be consumed
within two or three days, owing to
the fact food exposed to the air be-
gins to deteriorate after that time.

tiny bathroom, mixed a white pow
der in a glass Of water, stirred it.,
and brought it back to her.
Drink it, like Papa's little
lamb" he ordered her firmly. It's
to keep away the collie-wobbies
when you wake up"
Obediently, his arm supporting
her head, she drank the pungent-
smelling liquid. Then suddenly she
turned her head until her face was
hidden against his breast and she
burst into tears.
"Oh. darling, I'm so ashamed"
she sobbed.
IT should think you would be
ashamed" Donald said. his arms
tightening about her. you must
have a snootful-at least two cock
tails, I,bet!"
She chung to him, and Donald
soothed her as though she were a
child. But even after she had fallen
asleep he stayed there, holding her
close in his arms, his cheek against
her hair.
Brooks was awakened by the
heartening smell Of coffee and Of
crisplng bacon. He sat up. wincing
a little. There had been a few cock
tails the night before; June had
been shaken by them; but to
Brooks they had been little more
than a stimulant that left him this
morning with a slight headache.
Natalie spoke from the doorway
Of the kitchenette. Her voice was
| cool, noncommittal, as she said,
Breakfast in ten minutes. Don't
bother to dress. Just your robe"
Breakfast vas delicious, as al
ways. But neither Natalie nor
Brooks seemed to have appetite for
more than coffee. When they had
finished their pretense of a meal,
Natalie stood up and said quietly,
IF you have time, Brooks, there
are a few things I'd like to dis
cuss."
"Of course" said Brooks, light
ing a cigaret and following her
into the living room. you want
to discuss the divorce. Naturally,
I'm at your service"
do you want a divorce,
Brooks?"
Brooks turned away with an inn
patient shrug. ITS not what
want, Natalie. It's what YOU
want" -
Then it's not a divorce" said
Natalie quietly. Il don't want a d.
vorce, now OF ever. What I want
is my husband"
Brooks was silent for a moment,
staring out Of the window, his back
turned to her. And then, as though
quite sure he hadn't heard her cor
rectly, he turned sharply around
and looked down at her. She sat In
a cushioned chair, her ~sun-browned
knees crossed. a cigaret between
her slim fingers. She met his eyes
straightly, unafraid.
II don't think I quite get you"
he said then. his voice a little thick.
II don't think you quite-want
me-" said Natalie In a voice that
matched his. do you, Brooks? !"
He stood quite still, his hands

jammed in his pockets. as though
nphe couldn't quite trust them free,
lest they reach for her and pull
her into his arms.
You see, Brooks, / had a long
talk last night with Terry Mckay"
said Natalie. She's quite a person,
that Terry. She hits hard, but she
hits straight. She pointed out to me
that you and 1 are being a couple
Of fools-sitting on u dignity,
pretending to be modern and So
phisticated-when being in love is
the most gloriously old-fashioned
yet completely modern thing in the
world. Terry said that II l was in
love with you, I should let you
know about it-not just go around
being all prideful and dignifed
about it. So-Im telling you,
Brooks, that I love you very much"
"Oh-good Lord!" Brooks said
under his breath, bis voice shaken,
as one who has come face to face
with a miracle.
"You see, Brooks" Natalie said
after a moment, steadying her
voice with a genuine effort, "if you
don't love me-"
IF 1 hadn't loved you, I wouldn't
have married you," announced
Brooks, and his tone dared her to
doubt that.
She looked up at him straightIy,
and something that grew and grew
in her eyes until it seemed to flood
her whole being with magic and
loneliness, filled the room like gold
en- sunlight after a rain.
''You-love me ?" she whispered
at last.
Brooks was puzzled, a little an
cry.
"Well, certainly 1 love you. Sure
" you must have known that from
the beginning-else why would I
have asked you to marry me ?" he
answered sharply.
A wave Of color dyed her face
and she said under her breath,
We'll, that's just it-you DIDN'T
ask me to marry you. / asked you
to marry mel And / was afraid you
didn't believe in love. You were
so sort Of stiff and stand-ofish-"
And" stated Brooks grimly,
you've been believing all along
that 1 married you just because
you happen TO have money. That's
the chief reason I've been what
you call stiff and stand-ofhsh. 1t
was the only way I could keep from
sweeping you up in my arms and
making an utter fool Of myself"
"Oh, Brooks" said Natalie shak-
lily, her voice little more than a
whisper, as she put her hand to-
ward him in a pleading gesture.
"Oh, Brooks-my dear-my dear!
We've been such complete idiots.
I've adored you from the very first
moment 1 saw you. and I've died
a thousand deaths because /
thought you didn't love mel"
He was on his knees before her,
grading her in his arms, her cheek
against his, her arms close about
him. And when his eager mouth
