One person can milk up to 20 cows .in an hour with a milking machine— it keeps a good' hand milker busy to milk 7 to 9 cows in the same time. This saving of time rand labor is important, especially when good farm help is hard to get, but at any time milking is a disliked chore that the •family is glad to have taken off their hands. The hours of time saved with a ,milking machine does mean something in dollars and cents but it means a lot more in making farm life easier and more pleasant. Everybody welcomes the relief from the milking times that a milking machine brings. The modern, practical and economi- cal way to do things is to use machines instead of muscles wherever possible —that is why hand milking is out for .dairymen who have experienced the comfort and convenience of a mechani- cal milker. Among the time and labor saving machines your local Massey -Harris dealer has to offer is the Rite -Way Milker—the modern milker with the natural action. Ask him for particulars about this machine that does so much to make dairy farming easier and more profitable. :MASS'SY LARRIS COMPANY. LiMI1 BIlIL'ttE,R>S` cF, Q„C1Du F.,ARM,.

We Canadians, together with the citizens of the United States and Great Britain, will eat less sugar during the balance. of 1945. ° To meet our own needs and the urgent requirementsof our Allies and the liber- ated countries, our share of the reduction must total nearly 200,000,000 pounds of sugar during the rest of the year. • To assure fair distribution of what is left, the sugar ration is to be cut ioy five pounds during the next seven months by reducing the monthly allotment to one pound in June, July, August, October and December., In September and November, the allowance will remain unchanged at two pounds. The ten pound sugar allotment for home canning, represented by twenty extra pre- serves coupons, remains unchanged. Two regular preserves coupons will continue to .became valid each month. ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS ABOUT SUGAR Q. How does Canada get its share of world sugar supplies?, A. World stocks are pooled by the Combined Food Board of the United Nations which allots sugar to Canada, United States and Great a Britain on a uniform per capita basis. Q. Where does the rest of the world sugar Supply go? A. To other claimants, including liberated areas( European neutrals, Russia, the 'Middle East, New Zealand and other sugar•tmporting coun- tries. Approximately one-half of this total is destined for liberated areas. Q. Is there less sugar in, the world today? A: Yes. Becaensge needs are up and production is , down, world auger stocks reached a new low at the beginning of 1945, By the end of the year, they will be down again, this time to a dangerous mbiimurh. ,Neste VOAO.SSOGKS 4,100,000 toes 3povou Otis Q. Why is these more demand for sugar? A. The rising demand largely reflects the needs of liberated areas. Q. Why is there less production? A. World sugar output is lower for these reasons: 1, Enemy occupation of some sources such as Java and the Philippines. Java, of course, is still in Japanese hands and; although the Philippines are liberated, production is not expected to be restored until late in 1946. 2. Other export countries have experienced serious shortages of labour and fertilizer. 3, Record drought conditions and hurricanes have afeo out into production to the im- portant'West Indian area, INDUSTRIAL AND QUOTA USERS WILL ALSO CET LESS Effective July 1, 1945, sager made available to industrial users, suede as bakers biscuit and breakfast cereal manufacturers, makers of soft drinks, confectionery and candy, and lam and wine manufacturers, will again be reduced.
