A banana expert, A.F. Spawn, dealares
thatthe bemuse ie the true solation of
the beef problem. The possibilities of
the banana as a food product are without
scope. That simple food, according to
Mr. Spawn, can be made into inumerable
tasty dishes, ranging from banana bread
to banana chops. Coosa breakfasts,
course dinners, course suppere, coarse
luncheons, afternoon teas, cafe alateohet,
in fact, every oonaeivabte conventional
breaking of bread need have no otberin-
gredient in its make np than the prepared
produot of the banana.
Tavietook and Milverton played the
emoted schedule game of tbe W. F. A.
aeries at Milverton Monday evening
oommeoaiog at six o'olook. They played
the full time and neither side soared.
Milverton bad the beet of first
half,
'
but the Tavi tsok boys played better
Combination and especially Murray and
Case. Petrie, at full batik, and Loth, one
of the forwards of the Milverton teem,
distinguished themselves. They Battled
down aiad played an excellent game at
the finieb, and narrowly missed the goal
twin. w oe. Theg ams stands a draw. Taal -
stook ran a (motel t t
tarn to Milver on and
about 126 tioltets were sold. Quite a
large number of the fair sex were on the
epeoial, wbioh remained at Stratford for
some time on its way to 11filverton. The
referee was H. M. Jackson, of Seafortb,
and goal umpires Robert Lemon, of Strafe
ford and Mr. Rnddell, of Berlin. This
gems ltae vastly increased Tavisbook'e
(thanes in the league, as it was felt that a
Milverton viotory was assured.
