DeLovely at dinner Delicious delight. “Dessert” often means fruit- flavored gelatin these days, because of its delicious flavor and the ease with which the housewife can pre pare it. Yet since modern science has made gelatin so delicious a food, it is often regarded merely as a decorative dessert or a “carrier for salad ingredients. People eat it because they like its taste and are often unaware of its very real food value. In reality, it is pointed out by the Royal Institute, when gelatin is eaten as a dessert it is * source of the most important body buildliig and repair foods. 1 Gelatin belongs to that great family of protein-rich-foods whose Other prominent members are milk, Nggs, cheese, meat and fish. It com tains food elements which build and repair the tissues of the body and promote its growth. Not only la it one of the easiest of all foods to digest, but it is an important factor in aiding the digestion of ether foods. For that Reason, gelatin is often added to milk in infant feeding, and is used in the fnenn of invalids. 1 df recent years a great, deal of progress has been made in deter mining the value of Kolbasa food. It has long bean wcogaitSd M * nitrogenous food,. but it re mained for modern science to dis sever that it U rich In one protein element which is indispensable for the growth of children. That ele ment is Lysine. Since this factor is extremely valuable to the proper development of the child and since gelatin is so rich a Source, it is no wonder that child specialists are advocating the inclusion, of gelatin in the child’s diet. It is no wonder then, that gelatin dessert enjoys so prominent a place in the daily menu of all people, adults as well aS children, Sick as well as healthy people, especially nowadays, when it may be had In seven fruit flavors in the conveni ent quick-setting prepared form, each package containing pure high, grade gelatin of the first extrac tions, pure cane sugar and. delicate teal fruit flavor, in gelatin dessert we have a food which combines to delight the eye and palate while at the same time it provides all the benefits ot Its high nitrogenous and- protein content. To show how easily It is prepared, these are the instructions: Pour contents of one package of fruit- flavored. gelatin dessert into bowl* Add 1 CUP (% pt.) boiling water:' stir until completely dissolved. Ada 1 cup pt) cold water. Stir and pour Into moulds. Chill until flrm. The same amount ot, fruit juice or other liquids may be used in place of Cold water.

Only a limited quanitity of seed of this new variety was obtained from last year’s crop and it is being used to increase the amount and for experimental pur poses. these products may be secured with* opt making a cash outlay. Inferior soils such as sand, gravel, swamps,, shallow and steep hillsides, should be left in trees, as they will give yery small financial returns if cultivated. These are the areas that should be planted, as they will continue to be a liability rather than an asset as long as they arc destitute of trees, Planting is not necessary on areas that have large trees as they will pio- duce seed and it will be distributed by the wind, squirrels and other ag encies. This natural reproduction can be secured by fencing out the stock and it will be composed of the more valuable species if they are left and the less valuable (weeds) are remov ed in order that they will not produce seeds. The planting of a few hundred trees of valuable, species not growing now in the woodlot will give more variety and will make quite a differ ence fifty years hence. A few trees well planted in locations where they will be sure to grow well is far better than planting thousands poorly where the competition of the natural growth will choke them out. Eventually there will be no woodland in a field if provision is not made to have seed lings, saplings and polewood coming along to take the place of trees that are cut. Every farm sho-uld have an ever green windbreak to protect the build ings from the cold winds of winter. A farmer can establish a windbreak by making a cash outlay of $1 for ex press charges on the trees. In 10 to 15 years he will have an effective windbreak that will increase the value of his farm and reduce the amount of fuel necessary to heat the farm- a farm wilL an effect- Young People’s Union “Which Way Shall I Go?” was the topic ably presented by Miss Edvthe Ritchie on Monday evening at the Y.I’.U. The president, Miss Jean Sangster, had charge and opened the meeting with the hymn, “What a Friend we have in Jesus.” Billy Mar- ■ tin read for the Scripture lesson, 1 1 Cor. 13, followed by the Lord’s Pray er in unison. The hymn “Jesus Keep Me near the Cross” with the Mizpah benediction, closed the meeting . Buy Suitable Fertilizers The season for buying fertilizers approaches again and everyone wishes to obtain the kind of fertilizer most suitable for his particular crops and soils. Sound advice in this respect may be obtained from Experimental Farms and Agriculture Colleges, and, in the Eastern Provinces, from Pro vincial Fertilizer Advisory Boards as well. The latter publish annual rec ommendations for the guidance of buyers, and if these recommendations are followed, one is not likely to make the mistake of applying unsuitf able fertilizers. The average farmers may not yet be aware of the importance of the different forms of nitrogen in crop production. Nitrates are more quickly available in the early spring than other forms of nitrogen and this com mends their use for early spring ap plication. Many fertilizer authorities now recommend that at least one per cent, of the nitrogen in mixed fertil-' izers should be in the nitrate form, and some manufactures are already acting on this T ecommendation. The husband became iritable as he listened to the talking of his wife’s women visitors. “Can’t you get rid of some of them?” he asked. “They chatter like a lot of magpies. No wonder women are called ‘birds’?’ “Well, anyway,” remarked his wife, “look at the worm some of us pick up." The teacher had been giving-a les son on modern inventions to his class. “Can any of you boys,” lie said, “tell me of anything of importance which did not exist fifty years ago?" “Me!” exclaimed one of them. News and Information For the Busy Farmer Quantity of Feed for a Hen The question is frequently asked as to the amount of feed a hen will eat in a year. Those who are in a position to know claim that with mash and whole grain combined .a hen will eat from 80 to 90 pounds. On the basis of wheat at $1.20 per bushel the cost would be $1.80, and at present prices of feed it will cost around that figure to feed a hen through the year. On this basis she would have to pro duce nine dozen twenty-cent eggs in order to pay foi her feed alone. How ever, in many flocks average produc tion is crowding twice this amount, which allows for a margin of profit after raising the pullet and allowing for overhead and labour. Re-Stocking the Woodlot and Planting on the Farm The season for planting trees near, and plans should be made early as trees planted in early spring stand a much better chance of survival than those planted in late spring. The Forestry Branch in continuing the policy of supplying free trees for planting. The trees may be used for planting bare land, re-stocking a woodlot or the establishment of an evergrec n wind-b reak. Every farm should have a woodlot large enough to supply the farm house with fuel and lumber for min or building and repairs in order that HOTELS pcowMY ’modern FIREPROOF hotels 'iI:?»>awv0Mnr LOCATED »EASY MUTTS CHOOS RATESW 4150^’ I to 250 Single koHigier MONUMENTS at first cost Having our factory equipped with the most modern machinery for the exe cution of high-class work, we ask you to see the largest display of monu ments of any retail factory in Ontario.

The new variety has been named “Kabott" and was obtained as the result of several years selection within a mixed lot of seed which originally came from Manchur ia. The new variety has been tested on a number of Dominion Experi mental Farms and was found to be about 10 days caller in maturity than the Canadian Mandarin variety. At the Lennovilte Experimental Station, in 1936 the new variety created such a favourable impression that requests for seed have already been received] Maitland Creamery THE UNITED FARMERS’ CO-OPERATIVE COMPANY, LIMITED.
