Autumn thank offering meeting of
the W.M.S. was held at the home. of
MI's, Austin Dexter Wednesday after-
noon, Oct. 25th with a good attend-

• That old saying, so well known to farm folks
"Plow to the end of the furrow".... so aptly makes
our duty plain. And the end of the furrow is beyond
the horizon.
Our men on the fighting fronts have weary, trying
days ahead of them. We, on the home front, must
not waver nor falter. Our duty is clear, we must
keep faith with our fighters. On Canadian farms we.
must maintain our efforts to produce the foods our
fighters and our allies need. That work will
reward us with increased incomes.
And we must save ... to have money to lend to our
country to pay the increased costs that this war
continues to pile up.

Money invested in Victory Bonds will help to buy
the tools of war. They don't last long in action.
They must be replaced. It's our job ::: the home

everything they need.
Victory Bonds yield a double harvest. They pro-
vide our country with money to carry on the war.
Later, they will provide money to buy things we
will want and need, and which we have done
without during the war. Victory Bonds will pro-
vide cash to pay for' improvements for farm and

In September the coal controller
issued s ed an order which
states that
a
'Brooder coal is no longer excluda-
ble tonnage'. This means that whole-
salers and dealers wilI no longer re-
ceive additional coal over their quo-
tas for use in brooding chicks. Fur-
thermore, their quotas are reduced
from 90 per cent to 871/2 per cent of
their basis period supplies, -
In consultations with the office of
the coal controller we were informed
that all priorities on coal for brood-
ing purposes have been removed. If a
dealer has coal on hand t then orders
are received he is to give preference
in delivery to brooder supplies; this
is the only privilege such use will
enjoy.
The coal controller advises that
this follows action taken in the
United States and must of necessity
prevail in Canada. Production of
anthracite coal in the "U.S, has
dropped materially in recent months.
It is absolutely necessary that
those who intend brooding chicks in
1945, arrange for supplies immedi-
ately and endeavour to adapt to
brooder use the class of coal they
can secure. They should take delivery
