Potatoes are valuable from a nutritive standpoint and, therefore, are an economical food. They contain vitamines A, B, C and G. They are known as a “starchy vegetable”1 but it must be remembered that* three- quarters of their bulk is water and that the protein contained is easily digested and of high nutritive value. The mineral contained is relatively large in proportion to other foods. The following unusual ways to serve oven until very light and serve once; Serves four. Potato Biscuits 1 cup of mashed potato 1 cup flour 4 teaspoons baking powder % cup milk 34 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon of butter 1 tablespoon of lard Sift dry ingredients and add, to the potato.

SOIL ACIDITY AND FERTILIERS rela- crop con- This (Experimental Farms Note) The degree of acidity of the soil may affect to a great extent the re sults obtained from the application of fertilizers. The plant food elem ents of a fertilizer may be furnished from various materials and the tive effect of the latter on growth will be influenced to a siderable extent by soil acidity, fact is well demonstrated by the re sults, of an experiment comparing sources of nitrogen on lime and un limed soil conducted at the Domin ion Experimental station, Kentville, N.S., since 1926. In the above experiment two sourc es of nitrogen—nitrate of soda and sulphate of ammonia—were each used to furnish the nitrogen of a complete fertilizer mixture applied to the hoed crop of a three year rotation of man gels, Wheat and clover hay, The soil on one range of plots had never re ceived lime and was very Strohgly acid; that on a second range had pre viously been limed to such an extent that it was only slightly acid in 1926. The most marked effect from the lime treatment was evidenced in the yield of clover hay, On the soil that had never been lifned and which was very strongly acid the yield of clov- er hay where nitrate of soda was em-1 ployed as the source of nitrogen was , 70% greater than where sulphate of 1 ammonia was employed. On- the soil which had been previously limed and which was only slightly acid there was on significant difference in the yields of clover hay resulting from the application of these two sources of nitrogen. The above results tend to empha size the importance of the degree of soil acidity when choosing the nitro genous ingredient of a fertilizer mix- ture—-especially when a crop which i is sensitive to soil acidity is to be grown. Sulphate of ammonia is an excellent source of nitrogen for the majority of crops and is widely used, for this purpose. On strongly acid soils, however, a dresing of lime (e. g. ground limestone) to lessen acid ity would appear to be necessary if best results from the application of this fertilizer are to be obtained.

Wood, President and Managing Dir- ; ector. The statement reflects the strength and statbility of life insur- , ance, a voluntary co-operative move ment which for generations has stood every test. 1 Life insurance companies’ annual j statements, always considered bar ometers of general business condi tions in the territories they operate in, have been accurate indicators dur ing the depression and since 1933 , have shown, in no uncertain terms, | that general business is making head- | way. The Sun Life’s financial statement ■ for 1935 shows still further strength- ! ening and improvement, just as the report for 1934 showed progress over 1933, the year the depression reach ed its low level. Assets of the Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada stood at an all- ' time high at the year-end, an increase of forty-one million dollars for 1935, ■ and are now over seven hundred and seven million dollars. Payments to 1 their beneficiaries since the company , was organized 65 years ago exceed . nine hundred and sixty-eight million | n( dollars, and during 1935 payments of this nature were over eighty million dollars.

The treated wood is almost the same in appearance as ordinary ; wood but is a little heavier because ' of the salt content. It is easily tooled and takes varnish well. The investigators of the Board test ed the treated wood under conditions that sent untreated walls and floors roaring up in flames while the-.treat ed wood did not burn at all but after a long period of exposure to the fierce - " - j heat was deeply charred. Not once, I however, did the treated wood flame policyholders and or aid the sPread of combustion. The National Board of Fire Underwriters final verdict was that the wood was non-inflammable. AIR CONDITIONED CARS FOR SUMMER Church St., Toronto, this rugged, hard-tired vehicle, with a gasoline tank capacity of 641 gallons, is still in condition to maintain its reputa tion for reliable service which earn ed the military title. R. E. McKin ney, Supertest manager, formerly of Wingham, stated that the truck had travelled 167,000 miles in Toronto- and Ottawa' districts and that it had given the most economical cost per gallon delivery of any truck in the organization. During the 11 years it had cost the firm in repairs approxi mately half a cent per mile. Mr. Mc Kinney said that Supertest’s fleet of trucks included 76 General Motors trucks.

The work of air-conditioning pres ent equipment will be undertaken gradually, so that the types of air- conditioning devices used will be the best and latest obtainable. The air- conditioned equipment will be oper ated throughout the year, adding to the comfort of passengers during both winter and summer. The object is to have the air in passenger Cars clean and pure at all times and the temperature agreeable, irrespective of the winter or mid-summer tempera tures which may exist outside of the car. It is the aim to eliminate dirt and dust entirely and reduce noise to a minimum. Committees of mechanical and traf fic officers of the two Canadian rail way systems have been quietly but thoroughly making investigations of air-conditioning devices for passeng er equipment for a considerable time, studying in particular the success ob tained with the various types which have been in use, determining their relative efficiency, economy and oth er featlurcs. “Old Sarge” Is Retired To have delivered 3,619,982 gallons of gasoline in eleven years at less than a quarter of one cent per gallon is the proud record of “Old Sarge”, which has now been retired.
