â- tJiuJ - I Saloda Tea Bags are ham{3f /or afternoon tea "SAIAM '-f,,«#ii.^/4M hronicles %ingerFarm 4; G^andoUrve P. ClOi^rke One morning last week, some- thing happened which mad« us realize how greatly conditions have changed since we started fartning. It was this way: There were a couple of oak trees up in the bush that needed cutting down â€" and so we sold them. As a result, soon after breakfast one morning along came two young fellows with a chain saw to work on the trees. Be- fore they could get to the bush, there was an elm in the lane that had to be removed. It had blown down in a recent high wind and was blocking the road. But when the men got busy with their chain saw, tliat elm was cut into lengths ard the road cleared in no time at all. Then the men, with their equipment, went on up to the bush. Inside of two hours, we saw thei.- iniall tractor swing around into the yard with one big log behind it. This was repeated until there were four logs lying on the ground in the yard. In the meantime, a truck had arrived on the scene and within half an hour from the time the logs vere brought down from the bush, they were loaded on the truck and going down the road on their way to the lumber mill. The loading had been done by means of a chain at- tached to the tractor â€" so there was no heavy labor involved at all. Just think of all the work that had been done inside of three hours. The fallen elm had been cut into lengths to clear a roadway; the two oak trees had been cut down in the bush and four big logs cut out of them, and another big oak that was dead had been cut down for ourselves. Before the truck- pulled out, Partner called me to the window and said, "Look . . . see how easily a job like that can be done these <iays! And to think of the work it used to be!" Because my memory was a bit liazy on the subject, Partner re- minded me that even as ihort a time as 20 years ago, it would have taken two good men three days at least, even in good weather, to do that same job with horses and a crosscut saw. Half a day would have been taken up in dealing with the fallen elm; another day to fell and cut the logs out of the oak trees, and yet another day to draw the logs on s'eighs to the nearest saw ijiill. Then Partner added, "I won- der how many young fellows today realize the advantages modern methods give them? While what we have done with our logs today looks like an expensive way of do- ing things, yet the time saved by discarding the slow, hand-labor method more than pays for the gas and machinery that was used. It should also be remembered that when such jobs can be done so rSSUE 8 - 1950 easily by machinery, it is one more proof that labor is of secondary importance on present-day farms. Yet that fact alone makes it more than ever necesary for farmers to be on the alert â€" they have to be if they would take advantage of mod- ern methods in doing things. Farm- ers, now, tnust know more than how to be tillers of the soil." Well, dealing with the oaks and the elm was a minor matter â€" right now we have a more serious prob- lem on our hands. That problem IS how to convince Partner that he Tiust let up on the work, and to get away from the idea that he must work from dawn to dark. But habit is hard to break. Partner has been told by doctors and specialists to go easy; his brothers and sisters have todi him the same thing; Daughter is on the same track when she conies home, but now liob and I are really reading the riot act! Not but what we have tried to do it before, but in a more modified way. I suppose the harder a person has worked, the more difficult it is for him â€" or her â€" to relax and let someone else take over. Yet it is so much easier if auch persons will recognize the fact that time is creeping up on them and that they have their limitations in regard to the amount of work they can do. For a farmer, selling out and retir- uig to a place in town is not always the answer ft works all right in some cases â€" in others it doesn't. But there is such a thing as retiring on the farm, and for the man whose whole heart and soul is wrapped up in the land he has worked for so many years; in the stock he has raised; in tlie improvements he has made, then surely it is the best solution to the problem. Moreover, when a farmer has lived through a depression and come out on top, then a sort of semi-retirement on the farm is more to be desired than a sudden severing of activities to which he has become accus- tomed. Any doctor will tell you that too drastic a, physical chang* ;a not only unwise, it is dangerous. So that is the gist of our daily sermon to Partner, "Keep working, but take it easy ... let up . . . relax . . the farm won't dissolv* mto thin air as a result!" And maybe that little sermon ap- plies to other farmers as well as Partner. Britain did not become an island until about five thousand years ago. Up till then if was joined to Franc*, Holland and Norway by a low- lying plain. There was no North Sea, Straits of Dover, English Channel, or Irish Sea. An enor- moits river, consisting of the Rhine, Thaqjcs, Ouse, Trent and Forth, (lowed into the sea north of th» Shetl.-ituls. CROSSWORD PUZZLE 1. â- . f.

Barclay Warren "Planting A Church In A Pagan City" Acts 18:1. 8-11; n Cor. 6:14-7:1 Golden Text: "Ye are not your own; ye are bought with a price; therefore, glorify God in your body." I Cor. 6:19-20. Corinth was a rich, commercial city, capital of the southern part of Greece. It was the most wicked city Which Paul visited in Eastern Europe. For a year and a half, he labored, despite severe opposition from the Jews. Many believed and a church was established. Paul's letters to the Corinthians indicate some of the problems which arose later in the church. There were divisions. "Every one of you £aith 'I am of Paul; and 1 of ApoUos; and I of Cephas; and 1 o! Christ'." Loyalties to men ecplipsed their loyalty to Christ. There were also lawsuits before the courts between these professed Christians. Paul said, "Shamel" Some still took part in the pagan feasts. There had been one instance of fornication. Paul took an un- compromising stand against all these evils. The fornication must be severely punished. He writes, "Be not deceived; neither fornicat- ors, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor efJeminate, nor abusers of themselves witli mankind, nor thieves, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit tha Kingdom of God." i Cor. 6:9-10. Alcoholism ranks fourth among she pressing health problems of Canada and the U.S., with as many alcoholics aa there are persons suf- fering from tuberculosis. A leading Canadiaa industrialist has stated that alcoholism costs Canadian in- dustry $80,000,000 a year. "About three persons out of every 100 em- ployed drink enough to be consid- ered alcoholics," reported the per- sonnel department of one large industry. It is estimated that the average alcoholic loses 22 days each year from his job. Paul called for separation from all sin. We must be separated unto God, cleansing ourselves from all hlthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. We must glorify God in our body, for we belong to God when we are Christians. 1 wonder what personal w glfl ^ ence ii behind this item in an Ok' tawa pa(>er recently: "Huntera are advised rfut Mfr deer which goea 'moo' and kae » cowbell tied^to its neck i» apt to be a farmer's cow.

In the intervening 12 months, Canada Packers has carried on week-to-week tests to find out exactly the flavour Canadians wish. We feel we have it in the NEW MARGENEâ€" the flavour and the texture Canadians like. If you have not tasted the NEW MARGENE try it now. SPREAD IT on hot toott. SERVE IT with hof vegetables.
