There are several valuable reasons for doing this. First, you can tell whether the fish. is fresh or net. Full bright eyes and gills, firm funs and tail is a sane way of determining this Important point. Secondly, the head, tail, bones and slain should be used to make fish stook and thus get 1 extra value from your purchase ' Atter washing fish thoroughly, cover I the trimmings with cold water. Add salt, outside stalks of celery or 1 celery leaves, onion, carrot, 'bay leaf and, parsley if you happen to hovel all those on hand, and simmer gently fnr about an hour. Pour through, a strainer. From this stock, using Canadian salmon, hali- but or cod, the following delioious soups• can be made: TO MAKE A.

John. Russell, DSc., F.R.S„ Director of the, Rlotlmnstead. Ex'perim'ental Station., England, recently gave some interesting taste about farm- yard, manure. The oldelst and best- known method of manuring the land is to give it farmyard manure, and this, is not only very effeotive but also very safe, said Sir John. A nean can rarely go wrong with farm- yard manure. the chief trouble he rarely has, enough of it, The first serious possibility of using a substitute came about 100 Years ago, when chemists, analysed farmyard manure and found out the elements of plant food which it sup- plied. One tan of farmyard manure contains about 12-16 T. nitrogens; 13-15 lib. potash, and 5-10 lb. phos- phoric acid. For making humus in the soil, farmyard manure is one of the common, organic .manures that is known to be effective. It alone contains straw, and it is the ceillu- ldseand, lignin in straw that yields humus 4ni the soil; nothing else is known to give it. Cellulose and lig- pin, by thefselves,however, are of no value as manure and may indeed disltixectly reduce, the crop. The reason- is very interesting.. Micro -organdy that deoompose the cellulose and lignin an order to pro- duce humus require nitrogen, and pb.upb'at,e for their own nutrition, and they therefore compete with plants and take up nitrate and phos- pbste from the soil. When they die, their bodies, decompose and may ultimately proiduce .nitrate once more, so that In the end the crop may not suffer, and in the second year it may indeed benefit. Broadly speaking, cellulosic materials re- quire nearly 1 ,per cent of their weight of nitrogen to effect their decomposition, and this must either be added or 'taken from the soli, For this reason, organic materials ifke paper, sawdust, and 'wood shag have ne direct manurial, value ire spate of the presence of cellulose and lignin, though if nitrogen and phosphate are supplied they can be composed, forming a humus ma- rerhel that map fmprobe the soil i' -ern w by Reel£ is of no direct y =lee as manure; indeed in its first year it n+:ar be slightly harmful, though in rte seem= year it may be- 1al. The valve of organic =ker as manure depends em three factors: (I) its pereenetage of nitrogen; (") the ease with which t d "fmn•x-_es In the soil, (3) the croantrOy s51" cel:skose. lignin, and c:m-:ar suhstec:cee that ft contains. b; • Household Hints 9 9 t To prevent sake from hi:Tr:rg • • uprink'.e salt in the oven under the q.. bald: R tins. 4 8 it44*N*44*.4••N•44l44�4t`St P6trNk44•Y1�►4 044.•.4•►•44.14.44•Ns)'►•44.44*44+4• 4 Try rubbing handrails of dry wait tnlo roiled chenille drapes then brush out again, No man can produce great things who is not •thoroughly sincere in dealing with himself. - James Rus- sell Lowell, A good way to keep a ieathew., coat eIean• and supple and to prevent it from becoming dry and cracked is to rub it thoroughly with pure, clear wax, Howick Council Gorrie, January S'th, 1940 The Council sleet' for the year 1940 met 11): 'tile 'lrawnlshlle Hall, ac- cording' to Statute.
