That may be an exag- geration; but certain it is :that -most men, in this year, of "grace" 1935, do prefer a slender, winsome girl. After all, can you blame them? Fortunately, there is a simple and a safe recipe which assists towards that much=desired slim and attractive figure. The recipe is:- Every morn- ing take one half -tea- spoon of Kruschen Salts In a glass of hot water before breakfast. Krusohen is a blend of various mineral salts "which help the internal organs to iwnetion properly,, and to throw off regularly hartnful poisons and wast e matter.

A Westerner Tells About Hoppers Fighting grasshoppers in the Can- adian West is something with which the average farmer in the East is not familiar. There have been seasons when grasshoppers were plentiful en- ough, but they have not been a pest or a plague. One can recall well en- ough walking through pasture land; when it used to be dry and the grasp! fairly Yong. At every step it seem �'` -there.:wes dr.,;cleveee. oeje mei ... rising. The lads `going to qoo the tenth concession: used trio ca grasshoppers for the purpose of. "making them spit," but apart for that there was no interest in them, Some folks in the. lake districts of the north use them as bait for fish- ing. We talked with a gentleman the other day from Saskatchewan and he 'said the people in this province know nothing at all about grasshop- pers. Before going West he lived on a farm in Huron. Last season he said when he walked from his house to the barn he would possibly kill hun- dreds of them because they were so thick one could not help stepping on them. He drove his car only a little but had to have screens made for the windows and a special screen fitted over the front of the car to keep grasshoppers from clogging the flow of air. The grasshoppers would attack and destroy nearly everything which. was green and there was not a thing to estop the attack, He had poisoned millions of them he was certain, bat other millions came along to take their places. They could devour mote poison bait than he could supply, This gentleman who preferred not to have his name used was aked if there would be any cure by spread- ing poison bait from airplanes as was now being done, in Alberta. He re- plied it would help, but his vlG'i was that Nature would attend to it. How? There will be some sort of an insect which will feed upon the eggs of the grasshopper. It 'generally works that way, he explained. When a pest comes there is always something pro- vided to remedy the situation and re- store the balance. He informed us there were places in the West where already there were reliable reports of grasshopper eggs being eaten by some unknown insect. His conclud- ing remark was "I was born and brought up in Huron County, and liv- ed there until I was 32 years of age, and the truth is I never knew any- thing about grasshoppers until the last few years in the West, Think of it - they can 'utterly destroy all the crops on a farm and leave the farmer nothing but what may be growing underground, --Straford Beacon-B'era1{l CRIME IN LONDON A notable reduction in serious crime is reported from London, where there were 23 murders last year.

A Good Time To Raise A Fola+I According to the Dominion Ani: mal Husbandman there is at present a definite scarcity of good, fresh, young horses for farm and city work and an increasing demand for them at fairly remunerative and generally increasing prices. Since it takes -four or five years to breed, raise and de- velop a horse to marketable age, it will be some time before the demand can be satisfied, therefore present prices may he expected to hold or even improve for a number of years. It would seem, therefore, that it would be a profitable venture for ally farmer who has a reasonably good draft brood mare, that he can spare from heavy work, to breed her and raise a foal. If you are melancholy for the first time, you will find, up a little enquiry, that others have been melancholy many times, and yet are cheerful now. -Leigh Hunt.

In Old England London -In 10 years there has been a decline of 67 per Fent. in the num- ber of horses drawing trade vehicles in the United Kingdom, while horses used for agricultural purposes have decreased by 18 per cent., according to the Army Council's census. The been assured in reliable quarters, the non -insurable workers have been ab- sorbed into industry at much , the same ratio as the incurables, it is not unduly optimistic to assume that the number of actual workers re- deemed from idleness is even greater than the 10,320,000 record announced by the Ministry in this week's state- ,ment.

E. Poole, Montreal Star Resident Cor- respondent. Report of the Ministry of Labor states that it is estimated that on April 15th there were approximately 10,320,000 insured persons between the ages of 14 years and 64 years in employment, the highest figure re- corded during the period of 14 years for which comparable figures are available. It shows, morover, that of the 2,- 044,460 workers registered as unem- ployed at the date mentioned, out of the 1,729,024 individuals on the regis- ter who applied for benefit or unem- ployment allowances about 51 per cent had been idle leas than three months; others less than six months, and only 22 per cent had been with- out work for a year, In other words the so-called "hard core" of unem- ployed numbers in reality something in the neighborhood of 790,000 indi- viduals. Again, of these, it is usually estimated there is an employable class of between 300,000 and 450,000 people. In order to obtain a better picture of conditions here it 1s necessary to refer to that other numerous cate- gory of workers, those who do not come within the scope of the unem- ployment measure, While, as far az I can ascertain, there are no statist. les dealing with these people as a total number of horses in the country definite classification, the 1931 census has fallen by more than 600,000 in offers basic figures from which to the decade. work. In 1931 the census showed that "This does not mean that in this country the horse is doomed to early extinction," says the News -Chronicle editorially, "The chief decrease is in draught animals, which are giving way everywhere to the motor -van. But there is no falling off in riding horses and hunters over 15 hands, and the number of thoroughbreds has actually increased. In a mechan- ized age little room remains for draught horses. "But the Englishman'straditional love of the horse triumphs over the machine. More people are riding horses than 'ever before. The riding school is becoming almost as much: of a commonplace as the motor garage. We may cease to put horses between shafts. There is no reason why we should ever surrender the joy of the saddle."
