PHIL OSIFER OF LAZY MEADOWS By Harry J. Boyle • Along about this' time of year a lot of city people take trips' out into the country, hoping to pick up fresh vege- tables from their relatives. Then they go back to the city and write a lot of drivel about the "heavenly paradise" . and the falling leaves and Jack Frost splotching the landscape with gold and brown colors. The one hope this year is that the gasoline ration: ing ~will keep a lot of them back in the• city.' Farmers. do appreciate the fall. However, I think they are paying more attention to the apples which have to be picked, stored -in boxes arid baskets on the- veranda until a little nip of frost gives them- a 'tang and then packed. :away in the cellar and the pit for later "good eating".. Mrs. Phil tells me that this year apple sauce will not be a plenti- ful, on our meals because of the sugar rationing. Farmers are gathering up the culls from the apple trees, and we have an excellent crop of culls, and taking them to the cider mill. There's something fascinating about a cider mill. Men' are standing around in the steam from the apple butter cookers, dipping in every so often to sample the tangy fluid which is streaming out from the crushed apples.

As a matter of fact many of the grown-ups will have aches as well because cider is some- thing which you don't know enough , to leave alone. One of the blessings of hard eider is that you, soon begin to feel the effect, With sweet cider the effect comes later and in a rather unpleasant way. Farmers wives jki'C taking up the• garden truck these days. Carrots, cabbages ,... and so many other good things are being stored away for winter meals. Some of them hold by the rule of putting all . the stuff 'in pits . others pack them in papers and still more of them pack ,the vege- tables away in sand. It all .riieans work , . whatever method you adopt. The time is also coming up for the potatoes. Here at Lazy Meadowg" Mrs. Phil has been at me for clays , to take up the potatoes. There seems to be so many other things to attend to that I can't get time for her pota- toes. Besides -it's a little early yet. Mrs. Phil reminds me of all the other years when tile same excuses were used . . and the potatoes were taken up on a cold, drizzling rainy clay that threatened to break into snow. -at any minute. Harvesting doesn't finish as soon as the grain crop is stored away. People can talk and say what they like about the glorious autumn . but there'S plenty of work to do in the -country. There's windows to be put in where they're missing in the horse stable. The hen house has to be- cleaned out if the hens are to be given -a chance to produce all those eggs which. Brit- ain wants. We have to extend 'the pig pen this year because we plan on taking advantage of Mr. Gardiner's announced higher prices for pork. We. have a flock of sheep this year for the first time in..a number of years. The old sheep-pen is in -pretty bad shape and will have to be fixed up.

How to- feed the war worker has become an importani questiOn in thousands of Canadian homes, Our first suggestion is going to be some.- thing you may feel -that you, person- ally, can do nothing about. But don't dismiss it on that account. 'You .aloae may feel helpless, But you and your friends,, and your friends' friends are public opinion; which can still do plenty, So that first suggestion is that - all war workers in a good sized plant should be sold at cost one good 'nu- tritious meal during his working per- iod, whatever that is. Surveys -con'' ducted by "Nutrition Services" show that industrial workers meals served by a plant-operated cafeteria on a no profit basis are. far better than those served.. by concession cafeterias. Agi- tation by a workers' committee might rectify the situation if it's wrong in your plant. And another thing, for those very necessary between meal snacks., the best and most telling' stimulants are milk, fruit juices, (and that 'includes tomato juice) or cocoa-no soft drinks. It is inconceivable that a general de- !nand for milk or fruit juices, in place of soft drinks,. would be ignored, Now if yoUr plant, isn't one -of the ideal ones-and some of their ate; '/Ou know-some plants serve the sort of meals mother simply didn't know.-en- ough to Produce; but if yours isn't about the fall. I like the fall fairs and the pumpkins sitting in the corn stubble. There's something fascinat- ing about 'seeing the trees lose their leaves . . . and then -We haVe a few cold days and a spurt of bright, sun- shine to liven things up. I guess I better stop. First thing you know this will begin to sound like one of those city letters about the farmers basking in the brilliant sunshine and revelling at the harvest provided for them by Mother Nature. Great Catch. Of Lake Trout A Chesley party of fishermen iS said to have landed the best catch of lake trout out of the waters " at Lion's Head this year, when they got 17 of the beauties, and all of them from six pounds up.-Chcsley Enterprise. one ,of them you'll have to fall back on the lunch box, Here are some rules that will make that lunch box meal a proper one, 1„ See that it contains these three- ingredients---protein, a vegetable (not potato) or fruit and milk, Vegetables, fruit and milk won't give you ' any trouble, And neither will protekt if you remember that our best sources of protein are-meat, fish, eggs, cheese • and dried vegetables (like beans), 2. A thermos flask of hot soup or cocoa may just hit the spot. This is purely a matter of taste, The neees, sity of one hot dish -has been shown in recent experiments to be just an- other superstition, But if your war- wopker likes one, it obeys rule two,. which is palatability, 3. Arrange for the lunch box meal to be as fresh as possible. Don't make• it Up the night before. And do wrap - everything carefully in wax paper to prevent drying. Another tip-be sure, your sandwich fillings are moist but not wet. Avoid" soggy sandwiches on the one band and dry ones on the other.
