He was a peculiarly unpleasant person, and when visiting the local cattle show made himself unpopular by his loudly expressed claims to su- perior knowledge. He was especially insulting to old Sam Potta. "Pah,'' he said, sneeringly, "you know nothing about pigs, you don't. Why, my father raised the biggest pig ever raised in these 'ere parts." "Aye," retorted old Sam, quietly, "and the noisiest." The Archbishop had pretiched a fine sermon on married life and its beauties. Two old Irishwomen were heard coming out of church com- menting on the address. ""Tis.a fine sermon his Riverence would be after giving us," said one. "It is indade," was the quick re- ply, "and I wish I knew as little about the matter as he does."

Pro- viding those exciting guises for everyday foods puts meal planning ^ and preparation on a level with the arts. For example, the onion, plain and lowly as it appears, offers countless possibilities to the woman who re- gards cooking as an art. She uses it in varying amounts as a seasoning. A teaspoon of onion juice is added to potato salad, one small, finely mirvced onion flavours a meat loaf, or six large onions may be used as the basis of French onion soup. But the use of onions does not stop with their seasoning value. They are a veigetable and should often be served as such, not always creamed or fried, but glorified in a main dish. If you have never served on- ions au gratin or stuffed onions why not try one or both to achieve that element of surprise your family enjoys ? ONIONS AU GRATIN Parboil small white onion or large onions, quartered, until alniost ten- der (30 mins.). Drain and place in greased casserole dish. Cover on- ions with a medium white sauce, sprinkle with grated cheese and top with bread crumlbs. Bake in a mod- erate oven (350 degs.) for 30 mins- This makes an excellent supper or lunch dish on a chilly day. GLAZED STUFFED ONION 6 large onions, H cup chop- ped celery, 2 tbsps. cho-T)ed I parsley, 3 tbsips. Ibacon or beef drippings, 2 cups soft bread crum'bs, V4 tsp. salt, % tap. pepper, 2 tibsps. hot water, 1 tibsp. fat. Peel onions and cut in half. Place in large saucepan and cover with boiling water. Cook gently for 15 mins. or until partly tender. Drain carefully so onions will remain in- tact. Remove centres of onions (without disturbing the layers) and chop them fine. Cook celer" and parsley in drippings for 5 mins. using low heat to avoid browning. Add bread crumbs, salt and penner and the chopped onion centres. Fill onion shells with this stuffing. Ar- range in greased baking dish. Com- bine syrup or honey with hot water and fut. Use this mixture, a " few spoonfuls at a time, to baste onions while they are baking. Bake in the electric oven (.350 degs.) until the onions are tender. Yield' fi serv- ings. ONION DUMPLINGS f) large onions, 1 cup »oft bread crumbs, IVi lb. sausage meat, salt and pepper, plain pastry, tomato sauce. Parboil onions in salted water for 20 to 30 mins. Drain well. Remove portion of the onion centres. Chop the part remove<l. Saute saiuage meat to brown slightly, then com- bine it with the cho)>pe<l onion and the soft bread crumbs. Pack in cen- \rp--' nf onions and allow onions to sfantl until cool. Roll out iilain nastry. Cut in squares sufficiently large to wrap around onion? in the same fashion as apple dumplings. ^ rU"*'-"'"" â- ^ IN GOODYEAR SYNTHETK RUBBER TIRES YOU GET THESE EXTRA QUALITIES it Four-way traction tor grsatar o^fp, â- k Compreision tread ferlongar wear. â- k Skid-resitting tread design for greater safety. ie Tough, resilient Supertwbt cord body for longer life. -A- High tensile steel beads for extra strength. â- k Goodyear quality, skill and exper- ience , . . for long, trouble-free mileage.

Generally, maximum price for farm implements is the price at which such items sold during the basic period, August 15 â€" ^September 11, 1941; Quoted prices do not include cost of delivery to the purchaser. Under Consumers' Credit Order No. 225, section 10, terms of sale for form mach- inery are: 1/3 of quoted price paid in cosh; the balance of the credit price to \m paid within two years of the date of the contract in stated amounts at specified dates. Any allowance for a trade-in is to be deducted from the unpaid balance. Despite the lifting of production restriotions, it is expected that the shortage of components such as malleable castings and sheet steel will h*mit the maximum output of farm implements during the year July 1, 1945, to June 30, 1946, to a 24% increas* (on tonnage bosis) over the output in the preceding 12 months.
