Local dealers in beans, one of the area's most important cash crops, report that this year's quality is very good, but yields are down considerably. Howard Searle, manager of the Hensell plant of W. G. Thomp- son & Sons, says that about one- third of the crop is in and al- though the yield per acre is down on early deliveries, an expected improvement in the later beans could increase the bushels per acre for the entire crop, Scane added, c'The quality is excellent. Although a few green beans are coming in, they are cleaning out quite nicely." "It's hard to put a finger on the average yield of beans to date, although some farmers are talking of 18 to 22 bushels per acre", stated Doug Cook of Cook's Mill in Hensall, Deliveriesby farmers to the mills in Hensall have been very even and little waiting to unload, if any, is being experienced.

Exclusive healing substance proven to shrink hemorrhoids and repair damaged tissue. A renowned research institute has found a unique healing substance with the ability to shrink hemor- rhoids painlessly It relieves itching and discomfort in minutes and speeds up healing of the injured, inflamed tissue. In case after case, while gently relieving pain, actual reduction (shrinkage) took place. Most important of all—results were so thorough that this improve- ment was maintained over a period of many months. This was accomplished with a new healing substance (Bio-Dyne) which quickly helps heal injured cells and stimulates growth of new tissue. Now Bio-Dyne is offered in oint- ment and suppository form called Preparation H. Ask for it at all drug stores. Satisfaction or your money refunded.
