BLYTH Mr. James Dodds died at his home on Tuesday, Feb, 28th, after an ill­ ness extending over a year, Born in Blyth fifty-eight years ago Mr. Dodds had resided here all his life. During his career he took a leading part in the affairs of the municipality, hav­ ing served as Reeve for four years and in 1935 he was appointed Divis­ ion Court Clerk, also chairman of Memorial Hall Board. Mr. Dodds is survived by two sisters, |Mrs. William Robertson and Cassie at home. Ser­ vice was held at his late home Thurs­ day afternoon conducted by' Rev. A.- M: Boyle. Pallbearers were: J. H, R.

Councillor George Johnston is able to get around again. Hospital a Case of Rheumatism The value of perseverance with Kruschen, in the treatment of some cases of rheumatism, is proven by this man’s experience, He says:—- “I was abroad for over seven years. When I returned I began to suffer from rheumatic pains—partic­ ularly in the feet and arms, and I was eventually taken into hospital, unable to move without groaning in pain. When I left the hospital after two months, I was somewhat better, I was recommended to take Kruschen Salts, have taken them continuously, and until now I am entirely free from pains, I would not be without my Kruschen Salts for anything,"’—M,B. Two of the salts in Kruschen are effectual solvents of uric acid the ex­ cess of which is decidedly injurious. They swiftly dull the sharp edges of the painful crystals—the cause of pain and stiffness—and convert them into a harmless solution, which is then ex­ pelled through the natural channels. •County police warn against a tall man and a short man who are going about the country cashing cleverly forged checks for small amounts with storekeepers.

To Discuss Co-operative Creamery : For Blyth At a meeting of those interested in 'the possibility of Blyth securing a Co­ operative Creamery, it was decided 'by those present to call a Public Meet­ ing, with a.view to making some de­ finite step toward the establishing of . such an industry, or at least to deter­ mine the attitude of all farmers who might be interested in a convenience such as this, being placed at their dis­ posal. The date set for this meeting was Friday, March 24th, at 2 p.m., in Memorial Flail, and it is sincerely hoped that all farmers who may be interested in the project will attend the meeting at that time. — Blyth Standard.

N. A.’ Cowles, of the United States Army Air Corps Reserve, crashed on a farm near Parkhill, on Saturday night and was instantly Willed. The plane was completely wrecked. As the $40,000 Seversky pursuit ship plummeted to earth on the farm of John Young, it crashed into a stable, demolished the building, killed two horses, a cow, a number of chick­ ens and injured a third horse and lit­ erally flew to bits. The body of the 23-year-old pilot was found in his parachute harness about 60 feet from the stable. Jaw bones, arms, ribs and legs were brok­ en and the body lay in a crumpled heap. Mr. Young himself missed death by only a minute or so. He had just left the stable, where he had finished feed­ ing his stock, and entered his home as the plane crashed with terrific force on the barn. REGISTER YOUR RE­ VOLVERS OR PISTOLS Must Register Regardless of Previous Registration /V new registration of revolvers and pistols in Ontario is under way and must be completed before July 1st, Attorney General Gordon Conant an­ nounced. Regardless of previous re­ gistration, he said, every weapon own­ ed in the province must be registered before that time or the owner will be open to a fine or not more than $50 or a pyison term or both, and the firearms involved will be forfeited. “This registration of . pistols and revolvers," Mr. Conant said, “is en­ tirely distinct and separate from, the issuing of permits to carry them. Per­ mits are issued only by the commis­ sioner of provincial police.” Certain municipal -and • provincial police officers have been empowered to conduct registrations, Mr. Conant said, and they will be supplied with the necessary forms. On Guaranteed Trust Certificates X legal investment: for Trust Funds Unconditionally Guaranteed TH®STERLING TRUSTS Corporation STERLING TOWER TORONTO and Dr. the ex­ li as In his address to the annual con­ vention of the Dairymen’s Association of Western Ontario, held recently in London, Ont., Dr. E, G. Flood, Chief, Dairy Research, Science Service, Do­ minion Department of Agriculture, dealt in detail with the factors influ­ encing the quality of dairy products, These included quality problems of butter such as wood taint and surface deterioration, surface' taint, and mouldy butter and quality problems of cheese among which are milk sup­ ply, detecting low grade milk’, start­ ers, improperly sterilized equipment, pasteurization of whey, poor water supplies, lack of good factory sanita­ tion, rancid flavour in cheddar cheese, and slow renneting and soft curd milk. With reference to wood taint surface deterioration of butter, Flood stated that a solution of problem is now in' sight. From periments conducted to date, it been conclusively demonstrated that of all the protective methods studied to overcome the wood taint and sur­ face deterioration on storage butter the use of certain types of aluminum foil wrap lias been found to give the maximum protection to surface qual­ ity and in offsetting high surface col­ our. While these findings are based largely on experimental work, similar results have been found by a number of creameries which have tried out the new type of wrap on a commercial scale. From the studies of the Dairy Re­ search section, aluminum foil liner for wrapping butter should meet the following requirements. The alumin­ um foil used should be .0004 inch in thickness and adhered on both sides with a tasteldss and odourless adhe­ sive to 27-pound pure vegetable parchment. In order to withstand treatment for mould, the adhesive in the liner should be of such a nature as to withstand boiling water and im­ mersion period during cooling with­ out separation of the sheets. Due to the'corrosive action of salt on alum­ inum, boiling brine solution should not be used. To give maximum pro­ tection to the butter cube with mini­ mum cost, one long liner (50x12%) with two end pieces (15x15) with cor­ ners properly cut out appears desirA able. In lining the boxes, the two end pieces should first be placed in position and the long liner put in last. i I Creamed Parsnips 12 1 2 2 medium-sized parsnips cup milk Salt and pepper tablespoons flour tablespoons butter or butter substitute Young parsnips are most desirable, but old ones may be used if the woody centre is removed.
