if you count, among ,your rela-
tives or acquaintances, a number of
risen who like to go hunting, you
can (ways start a real argument
rover the 'proper methods in pre-
paring game for the table. ludivid-
val preferences vary so widely that
it is impossible to lay down any
hard and fast rules.
However, there ars certain getter -
al procedures that are always pretty
safe to follow., For instance, all
game should be dressed just as soot)
is possible after it is shot and al-
lowed . to cool thoroughly. The
flavour, too, will be much im-
proved if the game is hung for
several days to season.
Most of those who should know
about such things agree that game
lairds are better plucked, rather
than skinned; for if the skin is
taken off the meat will be drier
J
i
and less flavourful. Easiest method
of removing feathers from ducks
anti geese is to rough -pick the
birds, then dip them into paraffin
that has been melted in water.
When the paraffin has hardened,
the small feathers and down can be

will•% a knife.
, Small game animals, such as rab-
bit or squirrel, are ahyays skinned;
but the skin may be left on, until
ready for cooking or freezing.

Hints That Others
Have Found Helpful
With rubber tires so widely used
on the farm, we did away with the
hand tire pump. We mounted an
old refrigerator compressor, no
longer usable for refrigeration but
adequate for use as an air primp,
onto a length of plank, with electric
motor connected by a V -belt for
driving it. We made the outfit por-
table with a pair of small wheels
at one end of the plank and an
old lawn mower handle at the other.
We can use it wherever there is
a plug outlet for electric current.
A small gasoline engine could make
the pump usable without depending
upon electricity.
The shank of a worn-out file
makes a very good wedge for ax,
hammer, or hatchet.
To store sweet potatoes so they
will remain firm and not sprout,
I clean them, then dry thoroughly
and store them in a, basket between
layers of oats. I keep them in a
dry, warm place.
When putting grain in a granary
or when taking it out, I like to
get closer by backing to the win-
dow to make shovelling easier.
Usually, hired help backs up until
the truck hits the granary, often
breaking the siding. To end this,
I nailed a 2" by 12" plank in a
vertical position on the granary for
the truck box to strike against
when backing. Thus no damage is
done to the building -.hen grain is
loaded.
The inside of our barn is much
brighter since we painted the walls
opposite the windows a light col-
our. In the spring after L have
finished my painting in the house,
I put together all of the light-col-
oured paints for u, a in the barn.
If this is not enough, I may buy
a little white paint to add to it.
Besides making the walls lighter,
the paint preserves them. We find
that dust and cobwebs don't stick
so easily to a painted wall.

To keep my 300 -gallon, wooden
spray tank from drying out during
the winter months, I put in the
tank about 100 gallons of water
to which I add from 50 to 100
pounds of flake calcium chloride
as an. anti -freeze. This liquid can
be put in wooden barrels during
the summer and used again from
year to year.

Attractive Gift
That's Easily Made
If you saved your Christmas
cards last year, with some pinking
shears, .a punch, some yarn and a
needle you can make some most
attractive boxes for small gifts.
These will be intriguing little
packages to whet the interest of all
your friends. Marmalade or jam
ill small glasses make very welcome
gifts and take on a festive air when
placed in one of these little Boxes.
Just select six cards as nearly
the same size as possible. Cut to
exact , size with pinking shears—
taking off the name of the sender
—and punch around the edge with
holes about one inch apart. Be sure
to choose a perky "Hello" or "Hi"
card for the lid. That adds merri-
ment to the opener.
Then sew the punched cards to-
gether to form a box with the
varicoloured yarn and you have
one of the 'most attractive little
gift boxes you call imagine. No
one likes to throw pretty cards
away and this is an enjoyable and
profitable way to make use of them.
You'll find .that your friends are
pleasantly surprised with the idea.
These little boxes make different
containers for box socials, too.

In his one -acre garden in the
Yorkshire mining village of Middle-
cliffe•, 72 -year-old, ex -miner, Arthur
Guest has fulfilled a gardener's
dream. He has evolved a no -digging
system which not only works but
is paying handsome dividends.
fio successful are his methods that
gardeners from many parts of the
country have been visiting his land
to gaze enviously at his outsize
broad beans, onions, carrots, peas
and other vegetables. For Mr. Guest
has been quietly runniitb his no -dig
garden for nearly four years, al-
though some people thoaght him a
crank at first.
He will tell you that his method
is no secret. He's taken the back-
ache out of gardening by a simple
method based on the well -rotted
vegetable compost which he places
around the seeds as they are set
and at intervals as they grow.
The compost not only nourishes
the soil and kills weeds before they
tan ruin crops, but it encourages
worms which aerate the land. Seeds
are sown into the compost layer,
and if weeds show signs of flourish -
they are promptly smothered with
a mulching of sawdust. And Mr.
).west never, never digs. His ideas
are being tested by horticultural
experts who declare that results
achieved comps re with those ob-
tained by more normal methods.
WHAT JUST ONE VOTE DID
One vote changed the rate of a
nation, perhaps Europe—and who
knows—the world? In 1875 the
National Assembly of France rnet
to decide whether France should
be a republic or 'a monarchy. Jules
Leureant, a monarchist, suddenly
became very ill and had to be
hurried home. After he left a poll
was taken, and France remained
a republic by one votel
There is no doubt that the illness
of Jules Leureant at that hour
has affected all our lives.
