• The ownership a the !berries in a
wild raspberry patch is a subject
that is liable to generate a certain
amount of heat in certain circles.
People Who Would neiver think of
coming into our orchardsand fields
and taking our apples and potatoes,
will clean out a raspberry patch to
the last berty and eonsider the day
well spent. We !readily admit to vis-
iting other farmers' raspberry patch-
esin bygone dayartelout they were
gatichds !of huch lige extent that
they would aceommodate half the
township.
The average housewife on the farm
denriat reach her own berry patch as
early in the interning as many of the
berry pickers from the nearby town
or vellage. Op, the farm there are
always caws to milk, !calves and
chickens to feed, milk to separate_
tomake no mention of the everlast-
ing dishes.'
The .question then arises who has
the -first night to the raspberries: we
who gay the taxes en the place, or
aur visiting berry pickers. Some of
our visitors hay.e the kneek—pnicelees
in a goliticiana-of always putting
their apponeat in the weer*. After
only tveo minutes' ,conversation with
one ef them we feel like crawling
through !the nearest hale in the barb-
ed wire fence and hiding in our neigh-
bor's wheal ,field, only emerging af-
ter our ;visitors 'have departed, with
full pail's!, leaving to ui the sorry
remains. °
But despite all arguments to the
contrary, we still claim (in print, at
any rate) th'et we should have the
first chance at our awn berries.
Why and flow We
Use. Soda in Baking
Wherever, questions on cookery are
asked, there are sure to be some
about using soda in baking. Even
quite experienced cooks may wonder
why .soda is need when there is no
sour milk in the recipe; or why berth
soda and baking powder are indicat-
ed. Many cooks feel less sure of re-
sults when sleds rather than baking
powder is •the leevenling agent.
Except in mixtures where air is
incorporated by !beating or by adding
beaten eggs, the leavening agent for
quick breads and cakes is always
some form of socia and acid. These
are the raincipal ingredients of bak-
ing powder itself. In the presence
of moisture soda and acid react and
give off carbon dioxide.. This gas es-
caping into dough or batter, makes
it light. Heat speeds up the .process
and expands the volume of gas., so
that mixtures become still lighter
when baked.
In. general there are three ways
of using sada in baking. The only
difference among them is the source
and the amount of acid in the macs
ture. 'If none of the ingredients in
the recipe is acid, baking pierwder (a
mixture •of (both soda and acid) is
used. Biscuits or bran muffinsmade
with sweet milk are examples of this
typo- •
IWhen sour milk,- buttermilk, or
other ingredients supply the acid,,, so-
da is used as the leavening agent,
The recipe for Bran Brown Bread
which ie given below, is a good il-
lustration of the second use of soda.
There are many ingredients which
are weak acids, or mixtures 'in which
only a small amount of an acid in-
gredient is used. Because the quan-
tity of gas depends upan the amount
of sada that will react with acid,-• in
the third type of mixture it is neces-
sary to use both soda and baking pow-
der to get a light product.
!Recipes using molasses, honey,
dark syrups, brown sugar, apple sauce
or banana pulp need a little soda to
react with whatever acid these ingre-
dients yield, and some baking powder
for additional leavening. It takes
skilful balancing of such recipes for
the best results. Very experienced
cooks soon learn -what changes are
necessary when substitutions are
made such as melees -es for sugar or
apple sauce for milk. However, it is
best to rely upon recipes feom stan-
dard cook books and experimental
kitchens for satisfactory. results.
The following recipes have been
triple -tested and illustrate several of
the principles of baking with soda.
'Bran Brown Bread

A Small Fire
Occasionally one hears of a fire in
an ice house but it is seldom indeed
that fire originates in a refrigerator,
but that seemed to be the case at
O'Neil's grocery on Sunday evening.
The telephone girls next door smelled
smoke and on looking abaft decided
there was something wrong in the
basement of the grocery store, so
called Fire Chief Cree who is also
an employee, of the store, who came
up and investigated.. He found the
motor operating the ice cream re-
frigerator had become red.' and hot
and was burning up all oil and waste
about it and making a terrible smoke,
the store being tilled with it. The
power was turned off and the motor
allowed to coot and when Miss O'Neil
who *as at Bayfield, return the first
thought was one of thankfulness that
it had not occurred during the night.

BLOOD PRESSURE
The very fact that we are alive is
the beet evidence of the remarkable
capacity of the human body te adjust
itself to changing -conditions.;
ther it be an adjustment to the dif-
ference between twenty degrees be-
low zero 'and ninety degrees above, to
the attack of disease germs or to
the eating of too mach sugar; to all
of these, the body, if it is to con-
tinue to function, must adjtust itself.
The circulating blood is always un-
der pressure, for that Ls what !keeps
it moving throughopt the body. We
know the average pressure for groups
of persons who appear to be normal.
The rate of blood pressure is found
by the use of a simple apparatus. A
rubber sleeve which can be inflated
.is placed around the arm;- this is
then inflated and on a dial attached
to the ribber sleeve is read the pres-
sure required to shut off the circula-
tion in tffe arteries underneath.
There Ma -differences in blood pres-
sure arising out of age, sex; height,
weight, the position- of the body, and
recent physical activity. The average
pressure of groups of apparently nor-
mal persons is not to be taken as a
normal pressure. Within limits, good
health is not endangered by varia-
tions from the average.,
'Blood pressure is maintained by
the strength and frequency of the
he -art beat, the elastieity of the walls
of the 'blood vessels, the quantity
and quality of the blood itself.
When the blood .aressure'is found
to be consistently aborve or below the
average, the only important question
is: what has eaused this change?
High or low blood pressure is not a
disease, /but a sign of some change
within the 'body. A blood pressure
rate below the average frequently
accompanies chronic disease.
An increase in 'pressure is com-
monly associated with such bad liv-
ing habits as overeating, which means
laygrweight Increased !blood !pees-
aure is a symptom of the triangle of
failing function due to age, seen in
degenerative changes in heart, kid-
neys and blood vessels. Long -con-
tinued emotional strain, worry and
lack of relaxation may be responsible
Health From the Garden
The average garden supplies vege-
tables in abundance, perfectly fresh
through the summer months, and al-
so many which are easily stored
either raw or canned for winter use.
Comparatively few persons eat suf-
ficient vegetables. Minerals such as
iron, calcium, phosphorus, iodine, sul-
phur which neutralize the acid condi-
tion of the blood, are found in pro-
per combination as °nature 'provides
them in vegetables. Spinach, chard,
lettuce, celery, tomatoes, carrots,
cabbage, string beans, beets, parsnips,
potatoes, radishes, Onions, cucumbers,
asparagus, turnips, peas and cauli-
flower all have varying amounts of
available mineral matter. Leaf and
stem ! vegetables are richer in
calcium. Green vegetables are best
sources of iron.
Vitamins. essential to health, are
necessary for growth and protection
from disease, Different vitamins are
found in various foods, Vegetables
usually served raw. such as' lettuce,
cabbage and tomatoes aro' valuable
sources while smaller amounts are
present in others.
Stara and sugar are found in pot-
atoes, !parsnips, beets, carrots, corn,
peas and beans, and supply fuel for
body heat cind energy. Legumes
(ripe peas, beans and lentils) contain
nitrogen and are used for tissue
building.. Another important func-
tion of vegetables is to supply fib -
MIS material which is not digested,
thus providing hulk or roughage and
aiding elimination.
Points to be considered in cooking
vegetables are preservation of colot,
flavor and nutrients. Most vegetables
are hest cooked in the smallest a-
mount of water which can be used
without burning the vegetables o'r
they may be steamed. Have the wa-
ter boiling when vegetable is put in
the pot. Keep it boiling, not•simmer-
ing •and keep closely revered. Salt
added. during cooking preserves col-
or. Baking without the addition of
water is a good method in some cas-
es but is not practical for n-nany veg-
etables. To .preveat strong flavors
as in those of the cabbage family or
onions, use a large amount of water
in an uneavered vessel and boil -for
the Aortest possible time for tender-
ness./

day to day aids in aptpealing to the

'As a fleet owner, I am pleased to say
that Chevrolet *ticks axe very satisfactory
in every way in their performance. We
operate sixteen of these trucks practically
all the time and have ever since 1929. Our
chief work has been gravelling, hauling'
two yards on a ton -and -a -halt Chevrolet
truck, and when harvesting we haul a
great deal of grain in this district over
long distances. The load of grain is never
less than ninety-two bushels to a truck.
Our speed is from thirty-five to forty miles
per hour and our gas mileage is figured
from twelve to fourteen miles per gallon.
Up -keep of our trucks is very low or almost
nothing, as we generally rue each truck
fifty thousand miles and then overhaul
track completely, making it ready for
another fifty thousand miles.
As operating is very citeap and repairs
very reasonable it would he hard to per-
suade me in any way to change to another
kind of truck."
