All the jobs we intended to do have to be put by for another year. If we have an open winter it's killing the fall wheat or else it's bad for health. People will tell you then that we should have snow because it isn't heal- thy to have winter weather without snow. Country folks are hard to please when it comes to weather. In spite of all our grouches about the weather we seem to get along. •Mother Nature however must get pretty sick of all the complaining.

Veterinary authorities state that for the highest production of milk the im- portance of a continuous supply ,of drinking water for the cows cannot be over-estimated. Experiments in Canada, United States, Britain and other countries have shoWn that milk production was higher from cattle with water available to them throughout the, day than from cattle' which had access To water only once or twice a day, It is estimated that the average cow needs from 10 to 15 gallons of water per day. High producing cattle, such as those producing, say, 10 gallons of milk per clay, may eonsume up to 30 gallons of water per day. Where dry feed, such as hay or chaff annd concen- trates, is being fed, the cows would take 10 to 15 gallons of water as such. However, where the cows are on pas- ture the quantities up to 130 pounds are known to be eaten, water would be taken in smaller amounts. One hun- dred and thirty pounds of pasture -would probably contain about nine or ten gallons of water. If silage were fed, 50 pounds of that material would probably contain about 31 gallons of water. A GREAT SI ILITY With other tire plants closed down for the past two months, Dunlop is faced with the great responsibility of endeavouring to -satisfy the tremendous demand for tires clue to the non-pro- duction of. other tire companies. ' Dunlop accepts this responsibility. Confident in the consistent • loyalty and productive skill of its employees with whom the friendliest relations have always existed. . 7 . possessed of the understanding and co-operation of Dunlop Dealers everywhere . . . Dunlop is bending every effort . . • concentrating every resource . . . on the production of Dunlop Tires to meet , the needs of essential transportation, regular Dunlop customers and all others whom it is possible to serve through its established dealers. TIRE. SITUATION CRITICAL . No one can over-emphasize the critical shortage of tires today. And there are few signs of improvement. Even the manufacturers of new cars and trucks are obliged to ship cars and trucks without tires. It is utterly impossible for one tire plant to attempt to reasonably serve essential transportation, equip these-new vehicles and to take care of consumer sales. Never- theless, Dunlop Dealer's are exercising the keenest judgment and sense of fair -play in establishing equitable, distribution of their very limited supplies. Yes, in addition to being the only Tire Plant in Canada presently operating . . . in addition to the pressing demand... Dunlop is handicapped in its efforts by ablortages of essential materi- als, including tire fabrics, steel and other metals for tire' heads, moulds, valves, etc., and other materials and equipment essential to tire building which, on account of unsettled labour conditions elsewhere, have been in short supply or not available. at all. Because of these shortages,..Punlop, in spite of having been as far ahead in its raw material inventories as conditions permitted, has been unable to maintain 'normal production. Users of tires such 'as the new 6.50.15 size will 'thus appreciate the difficulty Of getting into quantity production of this particular tire. • IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST In the face of this grave, unprecedented situation, Dunlop . . . in the public interest . . is going beyond commercial considerations and is doing its level best to serve tire. users throughont Canada. Dunlop assures you that it will continue to serve Canadians' to the utmost of its ability, sparing no effort or expense. There is still great need for patience, of course, for conditions Show no sign of easing. But when times return to normal . when' present difficulties are ironed out . . Dunlop, with its expanding production facilities, with the assufanee of the steadfast loyalty and mutual goodwill of its employees and the co-operation of its dealers . . will again be in a position to make available to tire, users everywhere unrestricted supplies of the famous, 1ong-serving, sinooth-kiding Dunlop.

At the moment, gardens all over the country are yielding up their bar- vest of bright, red tomatoes, and in countless homes, they are finding their way to the breakfast table, dinner and supper table, Little wonder when garden-fresh tomatoes are so good and the season is so short]* Even the green tomato has many uses, Sauteed green tomatoes make an, old-fashioned dish well worth eat- ing, and al.-Oen' tomato mincemeat is another favourite, to name just two, There are often green tomatoes left on vines at the end of the season which refuse to ripen, but that is no reason they cannot be put to good use. Sur- plus ripe tomatoes present rro pro- blem for they are so easily canned for the winter menus ahead, The home economists of the Dom- inion Department of Agriculture's Consumer Section, suggest that all the tomatoes possible be canned by home- makers this year, to keep any of this valuable crop from going to waste, To can tomatoes, ihey suggest three meth- ods .... cold pack, solid pack and hot pack, With the cold pack, the toma- toes retain their shape, with the solid pack and the hot pack, they are more broken down, but are excellent for soups, or other dishes where appear- ance is not important. No matter which method of canning is used the preliminary preparation is the same. Sort tomatoes according to size, and remove any which are over- ripe, or blemished. Blanche to remove skins, by placing tomatoes in a wire basket or cheesecloth bag; and plung- ing into boiling water for a few sec- conds to loosen skin then into cold water to chill.

Last Sunday was one of those chilly days when it threatens rain for hours. finally does rain and the temperature takes a little skid downwards. It mak- es you realize that frost will come along one of„ these nights and daub colour around as a peace-offering no doubt to us who will lose all our green leaved trees pretty soon. When you live in the country and think back over the seasons as they come, you can have a sympathy with Mother Nature, She certainly could never please, country folks as far as the weather is concerned. If you'll bear with the for a moment, then just cast your thoughts back over he re- actions which are bound to come from us farmers as the seasons appear. The Spring is usually too late or ten early, If it comes too early people complain that it has dried up the sap in the maple trees and We didn't have a decent season at all for maple syrup. /t it comes too late we can't get on the land in time and he crops are going to be spoiled by the late season, , If summer comes in with a Mate of sunlight it will be bound to dry up the pastures. If stain-net comes too late then it has delayed the harvesting operations and we'll 'be cutting grain in October. At least that's the way the StOry goes. If Fall comes on too soon we com- plain about the fact that it seems we never do have any length of stintriter any more. there are lust two seasons it Would appear, whiter and summer, If it gets chilly and rainy we can't get at our fall plowing or else the pot. tithes will be rotting in the field, If Pall is delayed on behalf of summery weather and we don't get enough rain, We can't get at our plowing because the land is just baked hard.
