It was done about nine years ago. - Some of Will Rogers' quaint thoughts are recale (says The Ottawa Journal) from the pages of a book written by his old friend, the late Charles M. Russell. Montana cowboy artist. Russell died several years ago as he was about to complete the book, “Trails Plowed Un- der," a collection of reminiscences of the old West, illustrated by his own paintings and drawings. The book was published last year. With characteristic modesty, Rogers disclaimed the ability to write an in- troduction.

The flavour is somewhat changed in drying and the vitamin value de- stroyed by\long exposure to the oxy- gen of the air. Therefore, says the cir- cular just issued by the Dominion De- partment of Agriculture on home dry- ing of fruits and vegetables, drying should be used as a method of home preservation only when home canning is not practical. There are three meth- ods of drying, namely, sun drying, dry- ing by artificial heat, and drying [by air blast. Good material must be used to obtain good results, and the advantages of drying lie in the fact that less~ stor- age space is required because the fresh material is reduced to almost one- quarter, and that dried products may be stored indefinitely without danger of spoilage.~In the cooking of dried 'fruits and vegetables, it must be remembered that the water which has evaporated from them must be restored. The dried fruit or vegetables to be cooked should be soaked overnight in about four times as much water as the bulk of the dried products. They should be cooked in the water in which they have soaked, using a covered saucepan, and allowed to simmer for a long time. Sugar should not be added until the fruit is nearly cooked. Inthis way the flavour is bet- ter, and less sugar is required. These, and many other directions, will be found in the circular.

Works in Business As an exxample of how the (So-opera- tive spirit is gaining popularity, the speaker pointed to the (lo-operative buying and selling schemes now in common use, not only in England and Scotland, but in Canada. His mother, he told the Kiwanians. had been a staunch supporter of the earlier co- operative stores in England and had “My salad days! When I was green in judgment, cold in blood.” When Shakespeare wrote these words in his play “Antony and Cleopatra,” he not only drew a rich metaphor from the cool and enticing hot-weather item on the menu, but made a sly dig at the probability of youth receiving his “salad” at the salle, or birching block, established in all the reputable schools of the day. “Avoir de la salade,” as the French had it. However that may be, the salad of the twentieth century is an indispensable . factor in dietary science. With the advance of know- ledge, it has outgrown its utility as a hot-weather makeshift and has been, and is, the subject of rivalry between eminent exponents of the culinary art. It has been named for famous chefs, hotels and even countries. To-day the salad is supreme, and the most flatter- ing compliment that can be made to a hostess, be she in log-hut or palace, lies in the simple words “She makes an excellent salad." 80, along comes the Dominion Department of Agriculture with its all-embracing aid to the wel- fare of the nation. There has just been issued from its publicity and extension branch a booklet with the self-explana- tory title of “Salads That Are Differ- ent.” And they are. There are over 40 recipes for,_different salads, and all that is wanted is the ingredients which are within the reach of all. The {following is from last week '3 column of “Grab Samples” in -The Northern Miner: -â€" “The late Theodore Harwood, whese death. in California was recently an- nounced, once managed the La Rosa silver mine at Cobalt, in the heyday of. that rich camp. He was distinctly a Salad-Makers May Find. Some Assistance Here by the application of intensive study of the flow sheet. Another diversion of the busy mine manager is the cultiva- tion of goldfish at Schumacher. It may be explained that somebody once gave the mine executive a rare specimen of “The accumulation became so large that Mr. Ennis decided to build an out- side aquarium, where the fish could have the benefit of the sun and air. This was duly done and visitors were often taken out“ to admire the collec- tion. “An observant kingfisher noted the pond and made plans. On‘ suitable oc- casions he dropped around and paid his respects in kingfisher fashion, with- out attracting any attention. He ob- viously was a bird of some discrimina- tion because subsequent check-up of the fish disclosed that he had refused the 25 centers and taken on the $50 specimens. In other wo-rds,,~‘he high graded the pond, probably feeling that the price of gold might decline.” ‘ Greeter co-opentton in politics is one of the needs of the country, he be- lieves, and the present overlapping system. under which a citizen-is gov- erned by a large number or distinct bodies, work: rather as a deterrent to good government then rendering as- this fish, worth considerable money. Other friends, noting the interest of Mr. Ennis in this hobby, presented him with additional thoroughbred examples, until he gradually acquired quite an aquarium.

Writing this week from South Por- cupine Harry A. Preston sayszâ€"“Don’t let anybody fool themselves that the coming winter will be a mild one. I don’t predict that it will be as severe as the winter of 1934-35, which I guessed correctly, but anyway I am sure that we will have a real winter. There has been enough steady heat, and it is not over yet this summer, and in my 36 years living in the North I always noticed a hot, dry summer means a cold winter, and a rainy, cool summer means a mild Winter. As for the below 70 below zero at Iroquois Falls last winter, may I say that in 1909 when I was getting ready to come to Porcupine it was 64 below zero at Cochrane, and for four days there was no train arrived. My advice is to get thinking about your coal bin or wood pile for it won’t be long after the Fed- eral elections till old winter viill be TO WIT: LU W11 BY VIRTUE OF A WARRANT issued b§ the Reeve of the Township of Whitney, bearing date the 10th clay of June, 1935, and to me directed, commanding me to levy upon the several lands being in the Township of Whitney, mentioned and described in the following list of arrears of taxes respectively due thereon and costs, I hereby give notice pursuant to The Assessment Act, and amendments, that unless the said arrears of taxes and costabe sooner paid I. shall on Tuesday the 28th day of October, 1935, at the Township Hall, at Porcupine, at 10 a.m., proceed to sell by public auc- tion so much of the said lands as may be sufficient todischarge the taxes and lawful costs incurred in and about the sale and collection of ,same. ‘ The following lands are all patented. ‘ 1 1: urnn‘r an“ Thinks the Coming Winter to be Severe tonnd that the m“: a! “the more she mm. thematic made." mkedwt to her advantage.

He steered the re- luctant customer away and displayed some $25 bags, pretty good looking but obviously not what the would-be cus- tomer wanted. He finally went away. “A half hour later he returned with a parcel and sought out the floor man- ager and also the clerk who had so successfme discouraged his earlier ambitions. They stood by while he extracted a beautiful gold mesh bag, which he handed to the manager, whose eyes bulged. His glance sought that of the clerk and it was obvious that they suspected dirty work at the cross- roads. The manager questioned his visitor. Where had be secured this? Mr. Harwood named a rival jewellery house down the street. What had he paid for it? Only $1,500. To cap the climax the roughly dressed miner drew out a receipt for the sale and remark- ed that he had tried to buy a bog of this kind in this shop but apparently R. W. Hillmer. of Toronto, 'was an- other guest at the meeting.

One of the finest things that could hap- pen to the world to-day. he said. would be for everybodv to get over the habit of judging their own successes by the failures of others. Dr. S. L. Honey thanked Rev Mr Owen for his fine address, saying that he had given the club members a trans- fusion of the ideas of the people of Southern Ontario.
