Quick Hauling to Market III
IST think of the time the Ford saves a busy farmer in haulipg
milk to the cheese factory—vegetables, butter ,eggs and
poultry to market—fruit to the railway station. One fruit grower,
last season, made four trips a day to the railway station, a total of
;444 miles and carried as high as 72 crates of 44 quarts each on a trip. He
couldn't halve made more than one 36 mile trip a day with a team.
The Ford soon pays for itself in the time it saves the farmer. With help
so scarce, every farmer needs to make use of every precious minute of his time.
To him the Ford car is a real necessity. Indeed, some farmers tell us that it is
doubtful if they could carry on their farm work under present labor conditions
if it wasn't for the time the Ford saves them.
No farrier need be without a Ford. In fact, the average farrier could
afford one if it were double the price. It is as easy to drive as a horse, three
times as fast, and costs less per mile to run, Why not order one today?

PRAYERS FOR MORE FOOD
SENT UP BY ANGLICANS.
Bishop Williams Issues Pastoral Letter
on Rogationtide4
Rotaliontide will this year. be observ-
ed by Anglican churches throughout the
Diocese of Huron in response to the
appeal issued by Bishop Wiliaims, This
season of the church year has been but
little observed in the past, but because
of the exceptional circumstances
brought about by the war and the pros
pect of world fanzine. Services were
held Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
mornings, On Thursday, Ascension
Day, there will he a communion service.
The bishop's. letter to the clergy of
tits diocese reads:
To the Clergy of the Diocese of Huron:
We have arrived at a very critieat
stage in the history of the war and of
the world. Two factors now are of
supreme importance—nen and food;
men to keep the ranks full on the battle
front and food for the old land and our-
selves. A few more melt in the ranks
at the critical stage will mean alt the dif-
ference between victory and a draw.
The submarine blockade has des-
troyed millions of tons of shipping and
millions of bushels of grain that should
Mire gone to the motherland, which,
in consequence, is now facing great
scarcity. ,Moreover, there is, owing to
failure of crops in mazy countries, a
great scarcity of food all over the world,
which will be face to face with fanzine
conditions unless we on this continent
and in Canada enormously increase our
production this year. in this country
it is infinitely more important now for
us to produce more food than muni-
tions. Will you therefore, both in the
pulpit and otherwise, urge the fanners
to,, increased production, especially of
grain and potatoes, and urge every noun
available to enlist in the army or to
work un the land? Moreover, it is the
duty of everybody to produce what he
can on his own pot of ground.
Then, believing as we do that God
hears and answers prayer, let us earn-
estly and continuously• pray that God
will bless our efforts and enable our
land to yield her increase abundantly.
The church has a special season -sets
apart for this purpose, though unfar-
1 ,telv but little observed, namely, Ro-
gationtide, which consists of Rogation
Sunday (the fifth Sunday after Easter)
and the three Rogation Days (the Mon-
day, Tuesday. and Wednesday inunedi-
ately following the fifth Sunday, namely
the three days before Ascension Day). 1
ask all the clergy this year to observe
Rogatlontide by holding services on
those days for earnest prayer to God to
show his loving kindness to us that our
land [nay plentifully yield us her fruits
of increase, to Itis glory and our great
comfort and safety.
You may read to your congregation
this letter or such part of it as you
may deem necessary.
Believe me, yours faithfully,
DAVID HURON.
WHOOPS G
C UGC
The Infant's i'..*o,t
Dangerous i us ase.
Whooping Cough, althotigh specially a
disease of childhood, is by no means con•
fined to that period but may occur at
any time of life. It is one of the most
dangerous diseases of infancy, and yearly
causes more deaths than scarlet fever,
typhoid or diphtheria, and is more
common in female than in male children.
Whooping Cough starts with sneezing,
watering of the eyes, irritation of the
throat, feverishness and cough. The
coughing attacks occur frequently but
are generally more severe at night.
On the first sign of n "whoop," Dr.
Wood's Norway Pine Syrup should be
administered, and weeks of suffering
prrivcnted, as it helps to clear the bron-
chial tubes oaf the collected mucous and
phlegm.
Mrs. Nellie Barley, - Amherst,', N.S.,
writes: `I have much pleasure in saying
that there is no cough syrup like Dr.
Wood's Norway Pine Syrup, My little
girl took whooping cough from a little
girl who has since died with it, I tried
lots of things but found 'Dr. Wood's'
to give the greatest relief. It helped her
to raise the phlegm, and she is now better,
My young brother is also taking the
tough, and I am getting 'Dr, Wood's' to
work again."
Ar. Wood's NonVay fine Syrup is
put up in tt yellow wrapper: 3 pine trees
