The Huron Expositor, 1950-08-04, Page 5t. B O ■ >A► L ay ANNE ALLAN 41idre Homo Economist Hello Homemakers! Life would truly be a "picnic" if we attended all the summer outings and open- air suppers for the relatives, the clubs, the institute, the church, the schools, the associations and so on. Not only does Junior and our glamour girl have to be fuss- ed up to start out but they're dou- ble trouble to scrub after they get home, tired and cranky. However, picnics encourage a democratic -spirit . the generous donations of food, the friendly spirit at sports and loyalty to your group. Folks really become better ac- quainted at a picnic bench then at most meetings. The reason everyone eats so much is due to the fact that each homemaker makes an especially good dish ,for her friends or rela- tives elytives to taste. In case you're in need of a reliable casserole dish for a picnic, we suggest REAL HARD COAL is used for Reading Briquets These are the only pat- ,ented Briquet from the Hard. Coal fields.

Do not grease aluminum cookie sheet and remove cookies from sheet when taken from oven. 2. Picnic • sandwiches may be made day before if stored in crisp- ing pan of refrigerator. Wrap in aluminum foil or a damp cloth and wax -seal paper. 3. Instead of sandwiches, make salmon salad mixtures and put in weiner rolls or cooked ham salad or cheese spread in hamburg rolls. Peanut butter and lettuce go well in split tea -biscuits as do chopped cucumber and sliced tomato in sliced scones. 4. Bake cake in paper baking cups. Sprinkle fine cocoanut or chopped nuts on top when almost baked. Then you do not ice these and they can be packed together when cold to take to picnic. 5. You, too, may forget that the bag used for an ice pack is ideal for carrying ice cubes to picnic grounds. Anne Allan invites you to write to her c/o The Huron Expositor.

At: the present price of our Ontario wheat You can buy a top. for 4511, or $10 less than you pay for screenings which is a salvage pre- duct. The price of wheat from June to late July dropped as much as 60c per bushel.,., It will be interesting to see if the price of pastry hour drops accordingly. This is a drop of $1.00 per cwt. With bran sell- ing at $60 per ton, and it is a by- product of wheat, there can be no excuse for keeping the price of pastry flour up. Many' farmers who have been accustomed to selling their wheat to the millers tomake flour have signified their intention to feed it to their livestock. Perhaps •before another crop year rolls around we will find Ontario wheat In short supply. The meeting called by the Cana- dian Federation of Agriculture at Montreal on July 20, did not bring forth any solution to our feed problems in Eastern Canada. One reeommendation was made that might, if acted upon, solve some of our difficulties. The conference recommended "that trading in coarse grains on the grain ex- change be discontinued .and that the Wheat Board be given the re- sponsibility of Marketing these grains and seeing that an ade- quate supply was available for Eastern feeding purposes!' This recommereiation has been forward- ed to the Canadian Federation of Agriculture to be discussed at their September meeting. In our farm survey in Huron County to ascertain how many farmers are actually using mar- garine in place of butter, we have complete returns from two town- ships and a partial return from another. Out of 554 farmers can- vassed, so' far only eighteen use margarine as a substitute for .but- ter, and all but seven were in fav- or of a tax on margarine that would bring its sales price in line with that of butter. We have heard it babbled about that 50 per• cent of the farm peo- ple were selling their cream and buying a substitute for butter. Many of the people who are using it are cash croppers or people who do not keep cows for milking pur- poses. Butter consumptionis increas- ing this year and production is falling off. The quality of butter is much higher, according to in- spectors' reports. Increased sale of butter is prob- ably due to improved quality, a lower price, and a realization that "It's Always Better With Butter." Huron County Federation of Ag- riculture will ;gain present a scholarship to a youth from this county entering the O.A.C. for the 1950.51 term, either for the two- year or the four-year course. The winner of the award is selected by a committee composed of mem- bers of the Federation, along with your agricultural representative. Farmers have been privileged to see many displays of farm machin- ery at Field Days, Grassland Days, W'heatland Day, etc. The experts show us how these machines work and save many hours of back- breaking tail. So far, no one has told us of an easy way to pay for all this expensive equipment. New Answers Now Given To Old Riddle Of Mars (Continued from Page 4) crossed the seas.

He suggest- ed that the rocks of Mars are red because the iron in them has oxi- dized which means that oxygen has been taken from the air, never to be returned. Some day the whole planet will appear a change- less rusty red. Dr. 'l'ombaugh holds that the red color of Mars is the natural color of its ingenous rocks and not the result of oxidation of iron. To him the "oases" of Lowell may be craters left by the impact of col- liding asteroids. The great dust clouds which have been observed indicate that there are winds. Hence there must be wind erosion which would level off the high walls of the craters. Most astronomers now concede that the dark color that comes and goes seasonally on Mars is evidence of some low form of veg- etation. Like others before hint, Dr. Tombaugh suggests that lich- ens constitute this vegetation. But intelligent life on Marc? Dr. Tombaugh spurns the thought. He is willing to accept the can- als as real, but he will not accept them as artificial engineering works. Many of the canals ra- diate from oases. To Dr. TOm- baugh the radii are just cracks in the surface caused by the im- pact of asteriode. Dr. Lowell, however, insisted that the raddi are geometrically straight- lines, w•herea.s natural cracks, whether they occur in a sheet of glass or in the earth's crust, are never geo- metrically straight. Some of these controversial questions will possibly be settled with the aid of the 200 -inch tele- scope on Palomar Mountain, Cali- fornia.
