Notes. -On Tuesday of last week
Mr. Jacob; Gloor, north of Bornholm,
celebrated his 50th leirthday by holding
.x, sawing bee in his bush. A lot .of
wood was cut and Mr. Gloor held 'up
his lend- against all present' and ac-
eozn fished as much work as any of
the stalwarts, except one„ On Satur-
day, March 23rd, another old settler•
passed away in the person of Christian
Rock. Deceased has been a resident
of Logan for nearly fifty years, and
was the last surviving member of the
Bald Rock family. On Saturday morn-
ing he was out to the barn, and while
looking at the stock was stricken with
paralysis, and only lived a few hours
after. He was ,in his 77th year.., and
lived in the;old homestead, lot 25, con-
cession 9, with his son, Mr. Charles
Rock. His wife predeceased him some
years. ago, and three sons and three
daughters survive. The funeral was;
teld on Tuesday, and was largely at-
tended, interment being made in the
i3rodhagen ',cemetery—

Year, .Brussels, Molesworth, Wroxeter
and other places are only paying $10 a
gear for their' rural service. It is
also rumored dist those having the
Molesworth telephone claim that after
paying for the phone for five years
they will get wine free phone, with the
exception of long, distance calls. Tire
farmers in the Wingham district feel
that an injustice is being done them
andthe consequence is that a large
number of petitions will be handed to
the secretary of the North Hurn Tel_
•'ephone Company in regard to the mat-
ter. The secretary—states that on ac-
count of the high cost of wire, bat-
teries, etc., they cannot redudce the
present rates, but in spite of this hp-•
plications are being received daily for
servcie and since the new regulations
have gone into force they have install
-
a number of ..phones and, in. fact, can-
not meet the demand fast enough.

SPRING WEATHER
HARD ON BABY,
The Canadian: spring weather --one
day mild and bright; the next raw
and blustery is 'extremely hard on. the
'baby. Conditions are such that the.
'tither cannot take the little one out
for the fresh air so, much to be de -
aired. He` ;.. confined to the house
;which is often over -heated and badly
ventilated. He catches cold; his lit-
tle stomach and bowels become dis-
ordered and the mother soon has a
sick baby to look after. To prevent
this an occasional dose of Baby's Own'
Tablets should be given. They regu-
late the stomach and bowels, thus pre-
venting or curing colds, simple fevers,
colic or any other of the many minor
ailments of childhood. The Tablets
are sold by medicine dealers or by
mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr.
Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville,
Ontario.

HOME-MADE SYRUP. FROM
SUGAR BEETS
As one of the consequences of the
war the price of granulated sugar
has -very materially advanced during
the paat.two years. This fact has
prompt d the inquiry, can• a whole-
some syrup be made in the home from
sugar beets that can be used as a
sugar substitute?
To ascertain the possibilities in this
direction the Division of Ghpmistry of
the Experimental Farms has been
making a number of experiments, tak-
ing ;as a basis the simple process des-
cribed in the U.,. S. Department of
Agriculture, Farmer's bulletin No.
823. The results of this investigation
have shown that a syrup may be pre-
pared from sugar beets which though
not palatable for direct use as on pan-
cakes; porridge, etc., can be successful-
ly employed as the "sweetener" in the
making of buns, muffins, cookies and
gingerbread and possibly other cook-
ery products in whifh a dark: colour is
not objectionable. The syrup, the me-
ery products in which a dark color is
described, is of a thick consistency,
very dark and contains from 10 to 60
per cent. of Hagar. it is intensely
sweet but unfortunately leaves in the
mouth a very distinct and unpleasant
after-taste which is very persistent,
due to no doubt chiefly to the mineral
salts extractedtt from -the__ beet in the
process of maidng the syrup. This
disagreeable after taste precludes, in
our opinion, the possibility of using
the syrup directly on articles 'of food.
However, a number of trials with it as
a • sweetener in cooking has demon-
strated that it can be satisfactorily
employed in balding operations, as al-
ready stated, the product being free
from any appreciable unpleasantness.
The process which is exceedingly sim-
ple, is as follows:
1. The beets should be thoroughly
washed, and the crowns cut off at the
lowest leaf scar and rejected. The re-
mainder of the beet is then sliced as
thinly as possible, put into a tub, crock
or other suitable receptacle and. cov-
ered with BOILING water at the rate
of 11/2 gallons per 10 pounds sliced
beets. The whole should be kept hot
for an hour or so, with constant stir-
ring and then `strained through two
thicknesses of cotton. The juice so
obtained is, brown or lrownish black
in color and was found to contain 5.75•
per cent. to 6.75 per cent. sugar.
2. The juice, obtained as already
described, is boiled down to a volume
of approximately one tenth of that
originally nreeent, care being taken
that the synap as it thickens does not
scorch or burn. During the boiling
the 'scum which,coostantly rises should
be removed.
To preserve the syrup for future use
should be bottled while still hot in
self -sealers and the covers at once
tightly screwed down.
