Machine has wonthe favor of Dairymen Freedom from the time -taking, tiring and tiresome chore of hand milking has come to thousands of dairymen through the perfection of the modern milking machine. The milking machine saves hours of time and labor, making easier and quicker work of a task that has - long been considered as "taking a lot of the joy out of life." In these times of help shortage, it has been the milking machine that has en- ' abled many a dairyman to keep the monthly cheques for milk and cream coming in as usual and to benefit from the great demand for dairy products. Td users of milking machines, doing the job by hand is a thing of the past—to them hand -milking be- longs to the days when grain was sown broadcast by hand and crops were harvested with the sickle and the cradle. • Your focal Massey -Harris deafer can give you par- ticulars about the Rite -Way, the modern milker with fhe natural action. ,,0z- ' .t f Cbl.�wl6 l rl:a i I I +611 • 4r f�r� 'RE 41O.LC r� ,il f(I #7'.1 \ La Plattic "Pellets Used to "" Wash Children's Sno*suitp, Blatt PisIon Carbon In.,Lukewarm ,'`Sudsy Water Plastics ere,used by the army ;air Snowsuits for children seldom stay • borces u# Banti -blasting equipment to .

The rich, oily nuts from the pinons rank high in food value, having a considerable percentage of crude protein. The nuts are gathered in unique fashion. Among the Washoe Indi- ans, 'the old practice was to have the men and boys shake the resin - covered cones from the trees. Then the women gathered the cones and placed them in a fire which had died, until it was only embers. After a long, slow baking, which guarded against spoiling and en- riched the flavor, the nuts could be easily removed from the cones and were roasted, ready for eating. The .50 caliber gun which is stand- ard equipment on most American ,Planes can seriously damage any ship afloat except cruisers or battle- ships, it is said. The British, whd'have been using the ,.30 caliber gun extensively be- cause it can fire more shots per min- ute and permits a load of more rounds per airplane, are increasing- ly arming their heavy bombers with this weapon. Even the Russians are asking for planes with heavy groups of forward -firing .50's. In skip -bombing it has proved in- valuable. When low flying U. 5. planes come zigzagging in at a height of only 50 feet to loose their bombs, a stream of .50 caliber ar- mor piercing, incendiary, and tracer slugs directed at enemy gun crews makes effective mass gunnery im- possible. The Germans realized the superior- ity of the gun and developed a pretty good counterpart in the .20 mm. can- non. It has weight of projectile and can fire an explosive shell.

Among the mind's powers is one that comes of itself to many children and artists. It need not be lost, to the end of his days, by any one who has ever had it.

Cannery wastes include such products as dried pea vines, pea -vine silage, sweet -corn husks, and tomato seed' meal. In localities where these are available, their conservation and proper use in livestock rations is urged as a means of relieving the demand for other feeds.

Temperatures range from the tropical heat of mosquito -plagued malarial swamps and lowlands to. the` biting cold of the high plateaus and perpetually snow-capped moun- tain ranges.

Advertising Boss The president of an advertising agency is the most burdened being in the organization. The atmosphere is keyed to the president's personal- ity and character. , A sound, level- headed president whom everyone can respect, one human enough to okay a loan to a little stenographer momentarily hard pressed, a presi- dent who stands by his employees when there is a misunderstanding, one who knows that the success of the agency does not depend upon the executives he hires, but upon the humbler people who roll up their sleeves and pitch in to do their level best ... here is the president whom agency principals should seek. Once ,the president of a great agency stopped a conference to re- move a package of cigarettes from an executive's shirt pocket. It was. a thin summer shirt which revealed the cigarettes as a brand competi- tive to the one advertised by the agency. According to legend he threw the offending pack out of the window and presented the execu- tive with a pack of the client's cig- arettes. After that the agency peo- ple carried their favorite brands concealed within the outer wrap- pings of a client's package. Curd Deer Deer meat can be cured success- fully, but the thicker, plumper mus- cles—the rounds—cure best. Loins also might be included, but boneless pieces are preferable. The ideal procedure, however, is to have the carcass cut into desired pieces and placed in a freezer locker. Other - wile, a good cure mixture is 11/2 pounds of salt, one-quarter pound of sugar and one ounce of saltpeter dissolved in one gallon of water. The meat should be weighted down in the container so that it will be fully covered by brine. Best results are obtained if the meat in brine is kept in cold storage at 36' to 38 degrees during curing. Otherwise curing should be done only during cold weather. After being in brine two days, to the piece, oundthe meat p perp can be eaten at once or smoked with hardwood. After proper curing and smoking, the meat can be kept al- most anywhere and under most con- ditions, except that it tends to mold in a moist, hot climate. For sani- tary reasons covering with a tightly tied paper, bag is recommended Good ,Soap Shaker You cannot buy a wire soap shak- er for the duration, but you can use soap scraps just the same. Put a few slivers of soap in a jar, and fill it with water. Cover it tight. When suds are needed give the jar a good shake, pourthe soapy water into the dishpan or basin, and refill the jar with water. This idea is good for the kitchen or bathroom.' An ornamental glass jar—perhaps an empty bath -salts container—makes a prettycontainer for the bathroom uses. , A mason jar or jam jar can be used to hold the spraps of household an laundry soapy, Says Danger of Enemy.' Spreading Germs Remote If proper precautions -'are taken soon enough, there is no more likeli- hood of` extensive killings by enemy, germ's used as' a weapon of war, than there is of a .Rood famine in this country. While a single test tube may contain enough patho- genic bacteria to kill every one of the two billion inhabitantsof the earth,` due to the unpredictable va- garies ' of - the air and the slowness with which bacteria fall, the enemy would be equally jeopardizing the lives of his own, people. Bacteria sprayed out at high altitudes over California mightland in Europe or Japan. These statements were made by Dr. Claude ZoBell, associate profes- sor of marine microbiology on the La Jolla campus of the University of California. He added that only suicide squads flying at very low elevations over densely populated regions would' consider such death- ly' business as that of attempting to inoculate the civilian population with disease bacteria: In summation he said: The effects of bcte' a tial warfare cannot be limit- ed or localized. Modern water purification methods protect against the organisms of typhoid and chol- era. Plague would be as danger. ous for the force using the organism as for the attacked.. The danger from typhus has been exaggerated: Modern sanitary methods are ef- fective in controlling communi- cable diseases. New Jersey Early Scene Of Nail -Cutting Industry New Jersey entered the nail in- dustry at an early date. As far back as 1770 a rolling and slitting mill was erected at Old Boonton, in Mor- ris county, and in 1792, at Dover, Isaac Caufleld and Jacob Losey built a similar' establishment with the addition of a factory for cutting nails. In 1'795 the state is listed as pro- ducing 80 tons of nail rods annually. Two years later Burlington county had a nail factory in full operation, and by 1802 congress learned that New Jersey possessed four rolling and slitting mills "which rolled an average of -200 tons, one-half of which were manufactured into nails." At Bridgeton in Cumberland coun- ty, New Jersey, the brothers Ben- jamin and David Reeves—who later developed the Phoenix company— established a highly successful nail business about the year 1815. Basement Playroom A dingy, dark basement turned into a warm and bright "playroom" can be a real boon to the whole family's winter living. Light-colored board or paint applied to walls and ceiling of a cleared -out space in the basement will transpose the dingy basement into a pleasant, finished - looking room. Such a room can be easily heated with a small amount of fuel. Floors become attractive by cov- ering with linoleum, or cement can be painted a bright color and sup- plemented with several warm woolly rugs. Essential furniture, as per- haps a re-covered couch, two or three lamps, bookcase, table and chairs, can be borrowed from other parts of the house without being missed. • Steel in 1893 The year 1893 was one of panic and depression in the United States, conditions which were reflected in iron and steel operations. Production of pig iron dropped 22 per cent below output in the year before, amounting to only 8,000,000 tons—the lowest output since 1888. Steel production likewise dropped, the 4,500,000 tons produced in 1893 being 18 per cent below 1892's total. (Steel output in 1943 will be 20 times the 1893 total.) The number of blast furnaces in 'production dur- ing 1893 was the lowest in the 20 years that statistics on that point had been compiled.
