PAINFUL TO BEND
A JOINT
Hospital Case of
Rheumatism
The value of perseverance
Kruschen, in the treatment of
cases of rheumatism, is proved by
this man’s experience. He says:—.
“I was abroad for seven years.
When I returned I began to suffer
from rheumatic pains —- particular
ly in the feet and hands, and I was
unable to move without groaning
with pain. When I left the hospital
after two months, I was somewhat
better. I ws recommended to take
Kruschen Salts,
continuously, until now I am entirely
free from pains. I would not be with
out my Kruschen Salts for any
thing.”—M. B.
Two of the salts in Kruschen are
effectual solvents of uric acid the ex
cess of which is decidedly injurious.
They swiftly dull the sharp edges
of the painful crystals — the cause
of pain and stiffness — and convert
them into a harmless solution, which
is then expelled through the nature!

“In the good area,” the speaker
continued, “farmers’ problems could

He went on to outline plans
being pursued to reroute the
gress of agricultural life in Saskat
chewan so as to establish as ni'ucli of
the province as possbile on a self-
sustaining basis.
Problems of the settlers on the
4,000,000 acres of poor land was the
first problem, he added, and it was
not one of completely depopulating
the area. Provided the population
was decreased sufficiently, and the
proper .agricultural methods prac-
ticecf, some people could remain on
these lands and make a living. “The
beneficial use of millions of acres of
sub-marginal lands will providers
living for thousands of families.”
Mr. -Eisenhauer said, “even in an

one we have just gone through.

On March 29, last year, F..T. Hales, North

196 of these birds in his laying-house—and
that day lie gathered 112 eggs.

10,000 Families Moved
in connection with redistribution
of settlers, he spoke briefly of the
project under which, since 1929
some 10,00'0 families were moved
from sub-marginal lands in the south
to new farms in the park belt and
wooded areas in the north.
“The re-establishment of these
people by Dominion and provincial
funds is gradually attaining its pur
pose,” he said. “While a year ago
practically all these people were on
relief, the relief expenditures were
reduced 35 per cent, by the fall of
1938. In addition, some 750 fam
ilies were moved to other provinces
of Canada from poor lands, and of
these -only 13 0 are reported as re
quiring relief.”
In regard to soil-drifting—which
brought to one area of the province
the name “dust bowl of Saskatche

Proper conservation of water
provide irrigation for thousands of
acres in Saskatchewan, the speaker
continued. Already some 40,000 ac
res were under irrigation, and by
full development of all projects, both
small and large, it was estimated
some'275,000 acres could be irrigat
ed. Water development was scat
tered on thousands of farms, he ex
plained, where storage facilities
made it possible to irrigate from a
very few acres up to 200 acres.
“While this work has only start
ed,” Mr. Eisenhauer said, “there are
many hundreds of farmers today,
who, because of it, are in a position
where they are off relief so far as
food for themselves and livestock is
concerned.”
In selecting beef for cooking, the
most important points to be consid
ered are: freedom from disease, sani
tation, and quality. The purchase of
beef from diseased animals may be
guarded against by ascertaining that
the round, purple stamp bearing the
words ‘Canada Approved’ appears on
some portion of the skin from which
the purchase is cut. This “Canada
Approved’ stamp indicates that the
beef has passed Dominion inspection
for health and that establishment
where it was dressed has complied
with the sanitary regulations of the
Government. Then, if only those
dealers are patronized who keep their
premises clean and observe proper
sanitary precautions in the handling
of their goods, there should be little
danger of buying beef which is un
fit for food.
The quality of beef, however, is
not always easy to determine. Pos
sibly therex is no other articles of
food in which high quality is more
important, or in which the quality
is more variable, more difficult to
identify, or more subject to misre
presentation. The sure and certain
way to obtain quality is to buy beef
by grade, a matter made easy since
the introduction of graded or brand
ed beef. With a view to making it
possible for the consumer to identify
quality, and, through the emphasis
placed on quality to provide an in
centive for the production of better
beef cattle, the Dominion Department
of Agriculture initiated the system
of branding the two top qualities of
beef. These grade marks are ap
plied in ribbon-like marks running
the full length of the carcass, so that
when the beef is cut up a section of
the brand apears on each important
cut.
The purchaser should look for the
brand mark. The “Choice” or high
est grade branded in red represents
the product of particularly well-bred

'The “Good” Grade, which is al

quality of beef which qualifies from

beef ordinarily sold as the best ob
