Many people, when constipation bits them, just reach for the medicine Shelf, dose up with a physic, and try to forget it—till the, trouble comes back. And come pack it usually does-more and more ofteh-tiU, you get at its cause, If you eat what most people do —just bread, meat, potatoes-;, chances are just this fact causes your trouble: lack of “bulk." And "bulk" doesn't mean a lot of food. It’s a kind of food that isn't con sumed jn thp body, but leaves a soft “bulky" mass in the lutes- w tines and aids elimination. If that’s the reason for your trouble, what you need is a good dish of crunchy Kellogg’s All Bran for breakfast. It contains the “bulk” you need plus Nature's great intestinal tonic, vitamin B,. Eat it every day, drink plenty of water, and join the “regulars.” V Made by Kellogg in London, Ont. j_______~____________/ Collides with Running Child— Woman Injured: Falling on the sidewalk after col liding with a child racing along the street at Kincardine, Mrs. Thomas Buckingham suffered a fractured hip.

Denies He Is Dead Like the reported death of Mark Twain, that of Joseph-Abel, Port El gin dealer, is a gross exaggeration. In Kincardine Mr. Abel was wrathful over the actions of his business com petitors whom be alleged told Bruce County farmers he was dead in order to buy wool and hides he usually pur chased. Solomon Zinn Buried Funeral services were held Thurs day for Solomon Zinn, a lifelong res ident of Carrick Township.

For The Busy Farmer Bright Crop Prospects moisture conditions in East- Two-Headed Calf Bom Near Creemore A strange freak of naturd, a calf with a double head, was born to a farmer on the Mulmur-Nottawasaga townline, recently. The monstrosity was found by Mr. Dunstan when he went to the field to gather his cattle. It is alive'and doing well. Strange to say, it is learning to drink milk with ’ two separate mouths. The head is just about double what would be a natural size. There are just two ears, but four eyes, four nostrils and two mouths. So far as our reporter could ascertain while he assisted in feeding it milk from a dish, both mouths lead to a single gullet. The double head is rather heavy for the neck that sup ports it and there is a tendency for it to droop down.—Creemore Star. Mrs. Challenger Dies at Goderich III since last December, Mrs. Amos Challenger passed away at her home, Elgin avenue, on Thursday afternoon in her 76th year. Highly esteemed by a wide circle of friends in Goderich and Huron County, Mrs. Challenger's death is deeply regretted. She was born in Westfield in 1862, the daugh ter of the late Mr. and Mrs. George Theory. After her marriage to Mr. Challenger they .remained in her na tive village for a time, later moving to Clinton and coming to Goderich 29 years ago. Last July Mr. and Mrs. Challenger celebrated their golden •wedding anniversary. She was a member of North Street United Soil ern Canada are quite favourable for Spring operations, and the winter has been kind to fall wheat, clover, pas tures, fruit trees, bushes atjd shrubs. The outlook for crops is much bet ter than a year ago and the risk of crop-destroying weather in summer is much less in the east than in the west. The winter of 1938-37 was hard on winter wheat a’lid clover in the east. There was little snow and much rain. Fields were 'covered with ice. During the past winter .there has been ample snow to protect the plants which must survive the winter. Ip addition, spring has opened up well with lots of rain. Given a reasonable break in the next few months Eastern farmers, gardeners and fruit-growers look for ward to a brighter and more produc tive year in 1938. International Plowing Match The dates for the 26th annual In ternational Plowing Match and Farm Machinery Demonstration, looked up- on as one of the most outstanding yearly events in Canadian agriculture, have been set for October 11-12’13-14 by the executive committee of the Ontario Plowmen’s Association. J. A. MacRae, Lochiel, is president of the Association. The match this year is scheduled for Simcoe County, the site chosen being Minesing Flats, between the village of Minesing and Edenvale and 12 miles north-west of Barrie, This location is ideal in the opinion of the committee, as it is of easy access by automobile and one paved Highway No, 26 from Barrie to Collingwood, The local Simcoe County Commit tee has been hard at work under the general supervision of Frank Higgin son, chairman of the Agriculture Committee of Simcoe County Coun cil, and J, T. Simpson, county clerk. They have optioned 8,400 acres for the event. Last year's match near Fetgus drew over 100,000 spectators, with some? 65 companies holding ma chinery demonstrations. Information regarding this 'year's plowing match may be obtained by writing to J. A. Carroll, Manager, In ternational Plowing Match, Ontario Dept, of Agriculture/ Parliament Buildings, Toronto. Disease-Free Cattle Ina recent address, Hon. P, M, De wan, Minister of Agriculture for On tario, stressed the necessity for stren uous precautions to free Ontario cat-' tie from disease, if entrance to the British market was to be preserved. He stated that the ^province has to find a market for 200,000 to 300,000 cattle annually and the natural mar kets are Great Britain and the Unit ed States. Already 15 counties and four dis tricts have been tested and are now certified as T.B. free areas. In Mid dlesex, Elgin, Oxford, Brant, Water loo, Bruce, Essex and other counties the work of testing the herds is well advanced, the minister declared. In addition to the prevention of dis ease the problem of animal nutrition is an important one, Mr, Dewan said. Mineral deficiency is particularly menacing, he stated, and is engaging the attention of the department, Ex periments are being conducted with the feeding of minerals lacking in cer- 17 Beautiful Shades — Washable *- Durable BUCHANAN HARDWARE Wingham tain soils directly to the cattle.

Promotion of such ideals may not be a distinct ive prerogative of the weekly press Canada a better the character of an opportunity service to LETTER NO. 6 '"What can Weekly Newspapers do to make Canada a better place in which to live and work?” The ques tion correctly implies a special sphere of influence, for the weekly collect ively goes into the homes and is close to the hearts of hundreds of thous ands of people where the basic fac tors of a congenial existence should be found. If "to be honest, to be kind, to earn a little and to spend a little less, to make upon the whole a family hap pier for his presence,” if this is the test of a man’s life and work, as Stev enson says, making place depends upon its citizens. The weekly has through its community keep alive the spark of- human sym pathy and interest, antidotes for greed and repression which are responsble for so much despair. Church, school and home are 'Within the range of its interpretation. 'A large proportion of its readers has the wholesome priv ilege, of living close to nature, man’s inspiration and model. Can the week lies do more to cultivate an under standing of these advantages? Canada is a good place in which to live because it is not yet over whelmed by individaut and collective barbarities. Perhaps more than any other class of publications the week lies can strengthen the ideals for hu man betterment by keeping the vir tues and their means of expression in the foreground. The audience to which they appeal, promoting the fitt er insticts, can continue with the aid of press leadership to be the nation’s defense against the vices in* high and Iowftphces.

Canada would be a better place in which to live if the tendency to cen tralize were reversed, the smaller communities provided with a greater share of industrial activity, enabling more people to enjoy this neighborly intercourse which seems to be denied to a great extent in the impersonal atmosphere of the mote congested area.
