Most of the material comforts that we enjoy today are, by many people, looked upon as having been with us always. Few of us realize that they have been discovered and developed within the first half of the present centUry—co-incid-- erital with the development of electricity. When we think of these things we are led to wonder what the last half of the present century will bring forth. Few people living in the last century had a vision of what the twentieth century held in store, Toward the close of the last cen- tury the then premier of Ontario, Hon, George W. Ross, said: "In the century just closing the hum- an intellect has reached a climax in its activity. The inventor has filled the world with new machin- ery for almost every conceivable purpose in life—" Yet such has been the progress since the open- ing of the present century that many of the things which Mr. Ross had in mind as being the final effort of man's inventive genius have long been discarded and for- gotten, and replaced by gadgets which then were beyond the wild- est dreams or imagination. What of the future? I am not rash enough to predict. The first half of this century gave us almost everything required to meet the needs of mankind' and make the world a better place in which to live; but so far the last half seems devoted to the production of im- plements of destruction. The fut- ure lies in the lap of the gods. LANE OPINES BEACH Henry Docken, London, is bus- ily engaged erecting his summer cottage.

Combine 34 cup brown sugar, 2 tsps. cinna- mon, Ye cup flour and le cup soft butter. Work with the hands until crumbly. May add 1/2 cup chopped nuts. Spread this over ginger- bread for the last 10 minutes of baking. Mrs. C. M. asks: Do you use fat for deep frying that has become dark? Answer: No. If fat for deep fry- ing has become dark it may be clarified by adding a raw, peeled and sliced potato. Heat the fat slowly until the potato browns, then strain the fat through cheesecloth. It may be necessary to do this twice. Mrs. L. D., asks: Why do French Fried potatoes turn a greyish colpur? Answer: Potatoes that are cut in cubes for French Frying should be blanched by pouring boiling water through them. Then pat the potatoes dry with a clean towel before adding to hot fat. Fat The hum of the binder, the com- bine and the thrashing machine during recent weeks turned the hands of time back to my boy- hood days on a farm, and awaken- ed memories of .a period quite un- known to all but a comparatively few farmers of today. In retros- pection I lived those days over again. Memory carries me back to the time of the cradle and the wooden handrake; to the reaper and its hand-bound sheaves; to the binder which bound the shea- ves with wire, and now we have the tractor-drawn combine which cute, thrashes and bags the grain in one operation. These changes have all come within one short In the early days thrashing was done by a special machine, much the same as today where the com- bine is not used, except that the machine was operated by horse- power, Five teams of horses, each attached to an arm on a huge cogwheel, moved in a circle. The large cogwheel clutched a smaller cogwheel, causing the latter to revolve rapidly and put the mach- ine in motion. Then' came the steam engine which replaced the horsepower. The first of these engines were horse drawn, but in later years were selfpropelled. Until the war created a demand for the metal it was not uncommon to see one of these old engines rusting in some farmer's yard. With the de- velopment of electricity the steam engine was replaced by the gaso- line engine aritl the tractor. Some time ago the writer ad- dressed a group of farmers on "The Wonders of a Century," and was surprised to learn how few of them had ever seen a "flail" (used in the early days for thrash- ing grain); had ever used a cradle for cutting grain; had ever bound by hand a sheaf of grain; or could make a band to bind a sheaf. The audience was equally surprised to should be 395 degrees on deep fat thermometer or a one inch cube of day-old bread should brown in 20 seconds. * * Anne Allan invites you to write to her care of Clinton News-Rec- ord, Send in your suggestions on homemaking problems and watch this column for replies.
