It is said that the United States Food Controller's depart- ment has placed an embargo on the shipment of margarine into Canada, Canadians are just be- ginning to develop a taste for this butter substitute and to appre- ciate its use as a step towards economy, .but unless the United States Government decides to is- sue special export licenses to U.S. margarine manufacturers, Canada e'il1 be forced to rely upon its own production. If cottonseed oil, one of the principal - ingredients of margarine, is ineluded in the em- bargo, it will mean that Canada's manufacture of margarine will he seriously handicapped, as we have been relying on the United States to supply this oil.. Under the regulations laid down by the U. S. Food Control Depart- ment, itis necessary for an ex- porter to ,secure. a .special license for each shipment sent,out of the country, :it i5' understood that about ten days ago the •U.

A small sten of money is given them at their discharge and they must then shift for themselves. The severe mental and physical strain through which they have passed often makes it impossible for them to quickly 'It themselves into the positions op- ening for them.

If dug before the tops are thor- oughly ripe, the ,yield of tubers is lessened. • Potatoes should be stored in a dark, well -ventilated place, kept only slightly above the freezing point. In . addition. to cellars, out-of- door pits may be successfully used for winter storing. Our worst potato diseases are common scab, black leg, and dry or stearal rot. If potato scabs appear, change the ground 'and soak sets in for- malin solution. Use. of fresh manure fosters the scab. All suspected cases of powdery scab should be reported. Whenever a potato disease ill any kind appears, pains should be taken to ascertain its exact nature and combat it. .Ai' WISE 'COURSE It is with a feeling of relief that the decision of the.

Ottawa, Feb, .7. -From pre- sent .appearances, the session of parliamelit will not open before the 13114 of Marclh though it is hoped that that will be the latest date (or the assembly. The de- lay is due to the long process longer than was anticipated -in allocating the soldier's votes 'at home and overseas, This takes longer than the actual counting, because any argument as to the re- gularity o 1 ballots arises before the envelope stating where the ballots were cast is opened. Mem- bers cannot be officially returned until tlfe soldiers' votes are count- ed, and parliament cannot be sum- moned until the members are for- inaliy returned and gazetted. There . is some doubt whether or not a new clerk will be appoint- ed for the commons this session, but a sergeant -at -arms, replacing the late Cecil Smith, will be sel- ected.

La Grippe—the name by which in- fluenza is most generally known—ls a disease prevalent throughout Canada during the winter and spring months. Anyone who has felt its. pangs is not likely to forget the trouble. La grippe starts with a slight cold—and ends with a complication of troubles. it lays the strong ratan on his back; it tortures hint with fevers and chills headaches and backaches. It leaves him 11 prey to pneumonia, bronchitis, consumption and other deadly disea- ses. In runt its after effects are more serious than the trouble itself. You can avoid la grippe and winter colds by keeping; your blood rich and red by the occasidnal use of Dr. Williams' Pink fills. if you have not done this and the disease lays you low, you can banish all its evil after effects by this same great brood -building, nerve restoring medicine. This has been proved in thousands of rases through- out Canada by la grippe victims who have been made well and strong through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Among the cured is Miss Irene Bootee, Portsmouth, Ont, who writes: -•'1 take much pleasure In recom- mending Ur. Williams' Pink Pills, be- , cause 1 have proved their worth in My own rase. Last winter I had a severe attack o1 la grippe and it left me weak and all run down. 1 had severe pains in the chest and under the arms, palpitation of the heart and attacks of neuralgia which left Inc with the feeling that life was scarcely worth living. I was taking doctor's medicine, but it did not help me and I was much discouraged, I was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and be- gan their use only on the principle that 1 would try anyhing that might better my condition, 1 had oily been using the pills a couple of weeks when the pains began to leave nae, Gradual-.

Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills not only cure the disastrous after effects of la grippe, but are also a specific for all these troubles due to poor blood, such as anaemia, rheumatism, indigestion women's ailments, and the generally worn out feeling that affects so many people. You can get these pil)s through any dealer in medicine, or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from .The Dr, Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont, • - The long, hard school term drains the vitality Of growing children and you wonder why they are listless, pul"vy andrpaal,: Every school child will show Marked inlpro ieaneililt :'' In health 'and growth ifgiven it sada, falnilogt'ci cod .fiver oil gets into'theh 'blooc1 and gives tlaeifn,i lin,, :snap =attd gest. , It create stri x°gth'to resist, schobl 'sicknesses ovey'come pinched , hi. es, sallow �,, , 'ccernnplexi�n:a':�I�.cl tln4i wy es.
