ents, and sandwich -fillings, se that
the day in question finds us well
prepared.

so- the •previous day, To snake but-
ter go further, cream the pound of
butter thoroughly and ` beat in a
cup of top milk, add salt, then

PICTURES FROM HOME
3101
Wherever they are, our "boys and girls to the Service want pictures from
home. Oen't let them down.
R, ECENTLY.a leading newspaper
RLeenducted a survey of letters re-
ceived by fathers, mothers, wives,
and sweethearts of those in the
armed forces to find out what they
requested from home. The final
tabitlatien showed that pictures
apshots from home—topped -the
et.
The results of that survey are not
my interesting but mighty impor-
nt because a similar investigation
'Ideated in any part of the coun-
y would undoubtedly yield the
e information. So, wherever you
az live, remember to conserve
ur film for taking pictures to send
the boys and girls in the Ser -
There is still an acute shortage of
due to the vast amount needed
the *,rmtOd"forces.for x-ray :Work,
connaissance, and eombat pie-
ces; in •ad'dition to that which
ays, such an important part in
Bing industry in war production.
Before taking a picture ask ypur-
f this question: "Will uiie pie-
re {mean something to someone in
is Service?" If the answer is "No"
en don't take it. Under ordinary
onditlous when 'film is plentiful, it
all right to enjoy your hobby to
e fullest extent but today I am
ure 'that everyone is willing to
arego the pleasure of taking un-
ecespary .pictures so that there
111 be more 6lin available to those
ho Have friends or relatives in the
Services wbo would really get e.
thrill from pictures from home.
If you do not have friends or rela-
tivet in the armed forces to whom
you might send snapshots, .you eau
use at least part of your roll'of'elm
to snap a picture or two for a neigh-
bor wlio may not have a camera.
Nowadays we must melte every
snap of the shutter count. When
Picturing your friends and . family,.
the tint thing to do is to select a
suitable setting. One of the most
common faults of the average snap-
shot is that it is made in poor sur-
roundings. The photographer may
unconsciously pose his ,subject In
the backyard with a,background of -
ash cans or some equally unattrac-
tive objects. Or he max cboose the`'
front poreh steps and find in the ,
finished picture that a post is pro•
truding from the sabjeot's Bead.
That : matter of background _ is
really important. An ideal back-
ground is the sky, as you have
noticed in Many excellent pictures.
To achieve that sky background,
try taking your picture from a low
angle rather than at the usual eye
level: And make,it a hatit to look
beyond—and in 3ront—of your sub-
ject to make pure that no extra-
neous
xtraneous 'objects appear in your view-
-ender that may detract interest
from your principal subject;
Space won't permit golag into de-
tails regarding the posing of your .
surbject but, ;to shorten a long story,
a relaxed, natural pose will yield
the most pleasing picture.

require regular attention. If they're

2. The printed linoleum on our
kitchen floor was in good condition
except for a worn spot in front o1
the sink. 'We cut out a semi-fircular
piece of the worn _'printed linoleum
and cemented 3 in a piece of hare

trying to match the pattern.
8. If your pottery vases and bowls
don't fit into your colour scheme,
paint them with cold water paint.
Once : the paint is thoroughly set,
you'll find that water will not of-,

' THE Qi7ESTION BOX
Mrs, J. M. asks: How to prevent
strawberries from floating to the
top of the jar?
Answer: Thin is one; fruit which
should be prepared fo,'canning,
then brought to a ,boil, cooled for an
hour, then bottled and processed
for the required length of time,
according to the method used,
(Electric oven at 275 degrees for 15
minutes,) •
Mrs. M. T. asks: Recipe for in-
expensive salad •dressing for raw
vegetables.
Salad Dressing: Into the top of
a double boiler put 4 lightly beaten
eggs, e',< cup granulated sugar blen-
ded with 2 tbsps. flour, 4 tsps. mus
ta'rd, and e/a tsp. salt, Blend well and
stir in 1 cupful of mild 'vinegar.
Cook over hot water until thick,
Cool and store •in _ glass jar . ire elec,
tele refrigerator.
When using the dressing, thin it
with cream, plain or whipped. For
a' cabbage salad, we often use sour
oreain when it's on hand. Cut down
the amount of mustard if you pre-
fer less tang. Try adding a pinch of
curry when easing it tor devilled
eggs or a meat. salad.

Salt for Sheep
Salt is necessary for sheep all
the year around. Records indicate
that each sheep eats about one-quar-
ter ounce of salt per day, if they can
get it. They . do not obtain enough
salt when it is supplied in block
form: ,Alli stock salt should contain'
iodine, If iodized sa.t is not procur-
able, potassium iodide should be -ad-
ded to the salt.
Want of Water Means Less
Eggs
Water for hens is an important
item in egg production, particularly
during hot weather. Plena require, an
abundance, of clean,. fresh water be-
fore them at all times, and especially
at laying time — the early morning
and afternoon. liens have no sweat'
glands., They depend on their htiigs'
to "tbrow off body moisture. Prolong-
ed lack ,of 'water entails : parched
rungs and- suffering.
Lack of sufficient fresh water,
results in jewered egg production,
and egg ' quality is lowered' when
hens are forced to drink dirty stag-
nant water. A hen ,seeks 'drink of:
water the first thing stfter leaving'
a nest and she will drink •more
water when it, is kept fresh than
when it is ehangedionly once a day,

-Value of Canada's Poultry,
Program
Much has ' been
written about the
commercial significance of genetical
science in plant breeding, but not so
much has ,been demonstrated about
its commercial worth in animal breed-
ing. Canada has been following a
national poultry breeding program
for over a quarter of a century. The
R. O. P. (Record of Performance)
policy for poultry was actually start-
ed in 1919. It had been announced
six years earlier, but the intervention
of the First. World War caused its
postponement. '
The three considerations which
fortis the basis of Canada's national
poultry breeding program are; (a),
record of performance for poultry;
(b), flock approval, and (c), hatchery

-SYNTHETIC T'
R'UBBEB
ae
ACR YEAR before the war, more than 150,000 people
thronged the Indianapolis Speedway to witness the
supreme test of tire mileage and safety, the annual 500 -
mile race.
Recently, under the supervision of the American Auto-
mobile Association, Wilbur Shaw drove the 500 mile course
at an average speed of 100.34 miles per hour hi a race ear
equipped with STOCK Firestone synthetic rubber tires, .the
same as you can buy at any Firestone Dealer's.
Imagine the punishment those tires took as they pounded
over the rough brick and grinding asphalt . , . 500 miles at
speeds up to 135 milesper
hour .... equal to 50,000 -miles
of ordinary travelling!
When , you buy new tires,
remember—Firestones are the
only synthetic rubber tires
made that are safety -proved w
on the speedway for your
protection . on the .highway.
