Ilow do, we know we do 'not like a thing un- til we do taste it? nowadays there are so many things 'being prepared that our father and mothers never knew of, let alone our grandparents; that we do well to at least consider any article of food which is prepared in a cleanly, attractive, manner. Let, tucc used to be thought rabbit food, It was, of course, good food for rah- bits, and is. now, considered to be • mighty good things to eat by the ob stinato notion that an article, is no good just because'it was never served in your home." , I am sure We have all heard peopl say, perhaps have' said it ourselve UNIVERSITY OF- WESTERN ONTARIO ARE YOU A GRADUATE NURSE?

THE EMPIRE BRASS MANUFACTURING CO., Limited ' LONDON, •TORONTO, WINNIPEG, VANGO'UVER For Sale By: SUTTER ez PE DUE, Minton WISHES IIE HADN'T Farmers, who hanker for an oppor- tunityiof giving up the farm :for a commercial career, ?night well ponder the experience -of a writer in the Ohio Stoelonian'and Farmer;' who tells how one day, a few years ago, he took some onions to the groeer with wh6m he dealt and was'. paid : seven ' cents a pound .'for them. An hour later he saw 'his onions displayed conspic- uously iri.front of thestore, at fifteen cents per pound, and his wrath lose. `Ile had heard a great deal about mid- dlemen and the enormous profits they make, but never before had he exper- ienced such highway robbery, at least that is what he called it to himself. Shortly after he had a chance to trade his farm for a flourishing grocery store and a big house in a good little. country town and get two thousand. dollars to boot. -I-Ie turned middleman on the spot. The owner was old and wanted to retire, as the life was too strenuous for him, At least that was the reason the storekeeper gave for wantingthe .farm. lie could rent that out, but he couldn't rent out a grocery store, he said. - The farmer, turned middleman. bought onions at seven cents per pound and sold them at fifteen: Ile bought green peas from the farmers' anti sold thea;- at twice as iiBich as he. paid. But between the buying and the selling hangs attale. Thelyeas shriv- elled and decreased in weight and•the onions rotted because of poor weather conditions, so thathe was thankful to come out even on both. He' found that green, vegetables' are the most risky things,' on ,earth, unless it be. fruit, You cap lose all the profit for a week off other things by having a few orates of berries turn soft before you can sell them, or peas get slimy and unsaleable in the hot weather, Also he found that many people buy their non-pe'iishable groceries at the chain- stores and expect the regular nian,to carry frtiit and vegetables for them. He discovered• that trade in country towns is shot to pieces by mail-order houses and chain stores. He had always -dealt with one grocer for everything and, supposed others did the same. ` He learned about bad debts, and could, from his' window, see people who owed him: money planking down cash in the chain stores because they had to. The lovely big house that went with the store became a night- mare for his wife to• care for, besides the expense of upkeep, for she had to help in the store right along/ They could not afford to hire high-priced, incompetent clerics, even with doub- ling their money on peas and onions, as their friends reminded them contin- ually they were doing. Many a night his wife remained up till midnight ;trying to, save the good parts of spoil- ing fruit and he, himself, sorted ber- ries until he never; wantd to eat any more all his life. Besides all that he had to subscribe to this, and contrib- ute to that, until the burden grew to be a real menace. "You have to be a good fellow," the, committee announces as it waits on the merchants, • NoW the writer wants to know of .a farmer who wishes, to trade a well -im- proved farm in a good location, for that is what he left, fora Targe, fine- looking brick house and grocery store, in a thriving town. Iris reason for wishing to trade is that his health de- mands that he go back to the country as quickly as possible. He doesn't wish to be asked anything about taxes or bad debts or fifteen hours of work daily. He wants to "swap jobs" with. a farmer who is "tired of the drudg- ery of farming" and all that he. him- self, used to complain about. He has tried being a middleman long enough. —The Farmer's Sun.

R. B. Morley, general manger, 'industrial Accident Prevention Associations, says this' has often' been miscalled and referred to as a "Reserve Fund:" IIe adds it is in no sense a "reserve" being- simply the total of the amounts set aside by the Board to pay the pensions, for acci- dents that have already happened and c it is dlcula ted that the board has on hand only sufficient nioney to pay the hundreds of pensions outstanding. One of the most responsible and im- portant duties of the Compensation Board is the investment of itspension fund and .other funds. The total of all funds inthe hands of the Board at the first of 1928 amounted to $20,667,- 698.99. The details of the' invested funds, rates of interest secured, nat- ure of ature'of bonds and debentures held and other particulars, appear in the report recently issued by the Board, One of the . interesting facts pointed out by 1vlr. Morley' is the steady increase in accidents, on which compensation was paid, for'. each 100 furl -year ;workers Was 6.97, This has shown a steady re- duction to 6.43 for 1926, being the last year for' which complete figures are available. It also appears that the County of York had the highest num- ber of accidents with Temiykaming,. Wentworth, Welland and Essex fol- lowing' in the ordeir named.. In July; 7388 accidents, including fatalities, were repotted to the Com- pensation Board. In' the same month, the Board atvarded $613, 600. 48, in- cluding $88,774.86 for , medical` aid, while in lune a total of $536,962.47 was, awarded, including .$101,783.98' for medical aid, There Were more ac- cidents reported iii July than in any month in the history of compensatioi in Ontario, The largest single `•exhibit ' to be' launched by any country will be that of the Federation of British Indus- tries and the Empire Ilfi rketin g Board, which will be seen in the Dorn inion Government Building at the 1928 Canadian National Exhibition, Toronto, Ontario. a,. t theM , os Wear .;this Sticker slt• - >� y®Ba w_indlihiel lk,; Ask f one at your fining st.4ti_3;.n Mg 4 • way Safety Conn ,; nttee The HON.
