PLANT TO EASE HYDRO SHORTAGE S The DeCew Falls plant, near St. Catharines, will produce an additional 1,250,000 kilowatt hours daily at the close of navigation, a spokesman for the Hydro Electric Power Commis- sion of Ontario said. Navigation nor- mally closes about mid-December, he said. This extra energy equal to about one-quarter of Toronto's daily con- sumption, will take care of the nor- mal winter-time jump in power de- mand and has no bearing, on the corn mission's decision when restrictions will be eased. Domestic Bans , October 1st. Domestic restrictions which started include the banning of space heaters and of water heaters which are not insulated and equipped with thermostatic control. Outdoor Christmas tree lighting is banned. The dim-out prohibits lighting of exterior signs amid exterior flood-light- ing also, Breach of regulations call for a minimum fine of $100 and a maximum of $500.

CIGARS CIGARETTES TOBACCOS MEALS - LUNCHES Bulk and Boxed Candy Hot Fudge Sundaes SHERBONDY'S COFFEE SHOP Next to Lyceum Theatre HYDRO HOME ECONOMIST Hello Homemakerst There will be more hydro power in 1950-right now we must be thrifty. Mighty new plants for the generation of electricity are under rapid construction. At Des Joa- chims (the largest! Hydro project) an average of 750,people visited the site every week during the summer. Thou- sands have watched the progress of a power plant in construction. The spectacle 'which impressed us most was the mixing of the concrete. This was done by four large electric con- crete mixers into which the ingred- ients were measured by automatic scales. Then each bowl or steel bar- rel was set revolving by another switch. (The mixing time for a large amount of concrete was the same as for our light cake). As the "batter" poured out it looked like the consist- ency of our best cake. This part of the great building pro- ject is tremendous when you consider that the amount of concrete used at Des Joachims is equivalent to that re- quired to build a four foot wide side- walk from Halifax to Vancouver. Not only the concrete structure, but the generating system at Des Joa- chims is expected to be ready for operation in 1950.' Meanwhile, we must turn off every switch when not in use. TAKE A TIP 1. The purpose of a tea kettle ds to heat water to boiling point for tea. Every time you make tea measure only the amount you will require. Place the tea pot in a warm place so it is not necessary to use a large amount of water to scald the pot. Always turn the, eleetric switch off as soon as the boiling point is reached. 2. When you sterilize bottles use a small amount of water in a covered saucepan or kettle. A cover prevents evaporation of water during boiling. Sterilization requires only 15 minutes. This is, the allotted time for baby's bottles and the fruit jars and such. 3. A, small quantity of water for fresh vegetables is recommended for best results. Not only do you save electricity but you preserve food value. One inch of hot water in the saucepan for four servings of vegetables is all we use. Then when steam from under the cover indicates boiling point we turn the switch from high to low and begin to time the cooking period. Ten minutes for beet or turnip greens and twenty minutes for diced potatoes, beets or carrots; sliced turnips, winter squash dr pumpkin require 30 minu- tes. n a n n n SI n a n 111 n n n 3 a n n n n 111 n n n 1111 iii n n n particularlyeffective in combating win, ri ter ills, such as Coughs, Colds, Grippe ai and Bronchitis. • W I ' ampo e s Extract contains the same Nil number of vitamin D units as standard • cod liver oil. n n Iii A Pleasant Tasting, I Complete and Economical VITAMIN saunpdpuMmEIN ' U NTERAL " '1.35 714712.95 111:ff 14.95 " NEO-CHEMICAL FOOD TONIC 1n n 6.11111 • A Pleasant Tasting, Complete and Economical 111 VITAMIN and MINERAL • FOOD SUPPLEMENT n 111 INN' s1.45 11,47'2.65 11471.95 • • • I, D.

TURNBERRY COUNCIL Minutes of the regular meeting of T.iaaliship of Turnberry Council, held cm October 3rd., 1049, in Bluevale Community Hall, Reeve and all the members of Council present. The min- ! .rtes of last regular meeting were read ! and adopted on motion of W. A. Kral- ! sick and Thos, H. Abraham. WHOOPS! The government announced on Fri- day night that it will ask parliament to provide a permanent, official home for Canada's Prime Minister in a 19th century grey stone mansion that over- looks the Ottawa River and the hills of Quebec, It means the St. Lament's will move, from their five-room quarters in a downtown apartment building in- to a great, old, three-story home built with a lumber fortune more than 60 years ago. The government plans to hire an architect to study potential repairs and renovations, one of which will probably provide for a front view looking across the Ottawa River and into the Gatineau hills. The near of the house now faces that way. George Drew, Progressive Conser- vative Leader, was roundly applauded when he said: "The decision will meet with the general appro\lal, not only of the members of this (louse but of Canadians in every part of Canada." I do wish to express our satisfac- tion that the Prime, Minister will have 410 opportunity of carrying on his official duties and receiving official visitors to this country in a manner NMI Build Health and Strengt with WAMPOLE'S EXTRACT OF COD LIVER This famous year'round tonic tones up the en. tire system- helps you regain energy - and is Price $1.00 Per Bottle 4.
