Don't Be a Sucker
A brand new racket has made its
appearance in Huron county. It is
one specially designed to catch the
unexpeching rural housewives,
many of whom have railer for it,
and are out from $2.50 to $7.00 each,
It concerns the "draining of surplus
gas off radio tubes. In three out
of four cases when the husband
comes home at night the housewife
explains in a pleased way that it
only cost her five dollars to have
the gas drained from the radio
tubes. Mystified, he gues±i0ns her
and thea discovers that she has
spent five dollars to no avail. The
men leave no 'means+ of identifica-
tion. and any of the people who
have been sold on the idea are re-
luctant to disclose any details. The
usual high-pressure method is• to
make the housewife believe that the
gas anay collect and then an electric
spark would blow the radio up,
probably causing loss of life.

(Letter in Globe and Mail)
The the Editor of The Globe and
Mail: It almost broke my heart to
see the 'photo in The Globe ani Mall
of two attractive Avell•dressed wo-
men of the Housewives' Association
of Ward 4, Toronto, beating a pla-
card, "Buy no butter until price is
30o per 1b." While these foolish.
(,but no doubt well <meaning)
Wives of Ward 4 paraded rip the
winter,, evening Has no doubt did
many, many other Ontario farm we.
,mendonned any old working
clothes and proceeded to milk seven
no and, help separate the milk.
This is the same story day after
day, year Ater year, morning and
evening. Also it takes three-quar-
ters of an hour every day to wash
the cream separator, milk pails and
milk cans. But In the past few
weeks we have been quite cheered
up, for at last the price of butter
fat is up, Now I suppose that the
city woman doesn't understand why
butter has advanced so steeply in
accordance with what she pays for
milk. That happened a couple of
years ago When 1,t was decided to
pay a fixed price to those fortunate
enough to be 'supplying milk for
city consumption. Those dairy
Yammers, while not receiving more
than a fair price for their milk, con-
sidening the care ithet must be
given in production and handling,
have been reeling quite satisfied
but the price per hundred paid at
the creameries has been much out
of proportion to what they received.
The price of farm products 1s
regulate& by the law of supply and
demand. When there is a surplus
one expects much lower prices
than when these: is a shortage. At
present the butter supply is far be-
low the average for many years and
the storage- stocks are used up.
This array be explained by the fact
that when the housewife was' buy-
ing butter at 30 cents a pound and
less the dairy farmer was actually
(*crating at a loss, and, except for
the fact that he most keep some
live stock to use up the farm feed,
that he might put the manure back
on the land in order not to rob It of
its fertility, many, many a discon-
cented farmer holud have sold all
his cattle. As it was, the farmer
cut his herd down to the least num-
. ber he felt it wise to keep.
Last summer the weather was
very catchy and moat hay and
grain throughout Ontario wasspoil-
ed or 1oslt,so consequently the
Mice 19 high and the suafity gener-
ally Inferior. Also it takes three
years to raise a calf into a produc-
ing cow. Now the average farmer
does not go in and out with what he
produces and when the price of
butter fat was low the dairy farmer
kept on, hoping that his day would
come again, which it has at last,
and dor a little while he will have
a chance to make some profit and
pay off some of that mortgage (or
at least back interest) which Is the
burden of so many, many farmers.
Surey no one can 'begrudge hian
that, for certainly the farmer of
today works very, very hard for the
ordinary comforts of life, at is an
alarming fact that many young
farmers who assumed too great
a burden during the depression
years are paying up with 111 health
now,
I cannot see how an informed
person can take the attitude that he
is paying too much at the present
prices, for he has in the past been
purchasing bargains dearly bought
by the producer.
Then there are always complaints
from the city housewife, of how ex-
pensive eggs are in the fall, Right
now she is, getting her eggs far, fair
too cheap or else there is something
wrong somewhere. 30 she wants
to know what the producer is get-
ting, let her turn, to the markets
section ",prices paid to producer,"
Now to produce eggs at this time of
Mir entails a program which leaves
a very very narrow margin of profit
for the pbuitry farmer, as the
Medal feeding and careful hodsing
are expensive. +Spring, eummer
and early fall only are the natural

A Lenten Reverie
I'erdlsance life's lot may lead us .to
far-flung places,
Alt hoene, abroad we really need
heaven Jborn graces
Soul -worth alone truly can exalt the
races
The Hoist -man in Rosslland, who
his arm lreely gave
To fast -turning cogs, the descending
crew did save,
Such uucowman•dable acts. human
hearts enslave
So Calvary's, Cross', Starts a saving
tidal wave.
Some men do question just how
the Saviour came
No matter what your view, results
.are just the same;
His unforcible deeds glorify His
name—
The fact that He was here is all
we need to claim,
Heralding a life so great there
would be angel songs,
Marvellous too, His birth who could
right human wrongs
Yet brother; of our flesh, to our
race He belongs
He knew sin's lure, 'betrayal's
sting, thorns, nails and thongs.
"Acocrdiing to the flesh," born of
Davi•dIc line,
Loyal to the highest, He made His
life divine
For Through Him, God's love, pity
and forgeness shine
This. spirit of the .Master, is the
Lenten sign.
Your noble deeds, that no one just-
ly could command,
The second mile that maketh life's
hard journey grand
Holy disposition's sweetening all
that's' cplann'd
Lenten self-denial's set soul-tvorth
at your nand.

LOW BLOOD PRESSURE
The huanan family may be classi-
fied in many different ways. With
blood pressure as the basis for clan,
sll1catiou, we would have three
groups• average, above average and
below average.
High blood -pressure receives so
much attention that we are apt to
overlook hypotension, or low blood
pressure which is the more cow-
man variant from the average, In
general, the average blood -pressure
of women is lower than that of men,
while Orientals' are below Euro-
peans and Americans.
The, impontance and significance
of low blood -pressure depends upon
Its cause and the conditions with
which it is associated. During an
attack of influenza and other germ -
caused diseases, the .blood -pressure
usually falls' and it may remain
down for some. time. This indicates
the need for a longer stay in bed
for such patients, • with sufficient
rest during convalescence, Rest is
the great healer and restorer.
Tuberculosis and other chronic
disease usually are accompanied by
a 'low blood pressure. This is also
true ivf certain anaemias and heart
disorders. In such cased it is ob-
vious that the underlying cause ]s'
the Impatient point,
Then
there are those whose blood
pressure le below average for no

tend to live beyond the average ex-
pectancy of life.
While they live longer, many of
them miss much or the joy or life,
because of the chronic and persis-
ent sense of weariness which bur-
dens their lives. They may be said
to enjoy poor health; they are not
111, but inactive. To do things Is
an effort, and ;it Is a question
Whether a. longer life, under such
conditions, is as desirable es is the
shorter but more active life of the
high blood -pressure group.
The treatment of low bloodpres.
sure depends' upon what is causing
it. In general such cases should
endeavour to maintain their body
weight and, by a reasonable amount
of exercise, keep their muscles ton-
ed up, including the abdominal mus-
cles. Those into suffer no 00rou-
venience need no treatment, but
any who tire too easily may need
help. Your doctor should be your
counsellor if too have low blood -
pressure. He can help yon to dir-
ect your• life "-n the best advantage.
