article totbe- accompaniment of a threshing machine yes the threshers are here and the machine is pounding away like a great heart throbbing but instead of driving blood through its arteries it is forcing grain through its separator pipes the meat a huge rump roast is siz zling away in the oven the table is set pies are cut and the kettle singing a cheery song until such time as it is needed there are twelve places set at the table and after awhile twelve dusty hungry men will wander housewares and supperwards but before they come in they will find a big tub of hot soft water waiting for them outside and the first layer of dust and dirt will be removed partner is very particular about this hot water because he says nothing is more disagreeable to men coming out of the mow than to have to paddle around in coldwaters threshing i suppose is one of those necessary evils to which farm people be come accustomed we dont like thresh ing but we do like getting it over and done with and of course we like to have a little advance notice up to thursday of this week we had received no word from the threshers thursday night i was away to a meeting it was late when i got home and after going to bed i could not sleep however the one thousand and fiftythird sheep was just going through the gap and i was just about dropping off to sleep when partner became half- awake and mumbled to me thatthe threshers would bejhere the next night and then of course like the sleepy dormouse in alice in won derland having told his story he went to sleep again but not i i didnt even bother to chase sheep any morer but lay awake wondering how on earth i was going to get readyfor threshers since i was obliged to be away all the next day however i got home about five oclock and did some baking that night we had everything arranged for saturday forenoon the neighbors were called and told we would be ready to start about slats diary by boss fabqtjbcab man cruises while on sunday the new seven in

from canadas prairies an analysis of the operations of ap proximately 100 creameries in canadas prairie provinces manitoba saskatche wan and alberto is being undertaken by the dominion department of agri culture in cooperation with the agri culture departments of the provinces concerned creameries have been select ed in the three provinces in proportion to the total number of creameries oper ating and the total volume of butter made the primary purpose of the study is toprovide information that will assist creamery operators to increase the efficiency of their plants factors af fecting costs management policies methods of financing sales policies and other matters will be givon considera tion while the prairie provinces of canada are famous throughout the world for the quantity and quality of the wheat grown on their fertile plains they are also im portant for their production of dairy products and in 1933 contributed 105- 851200 pounds or over 32 per cent of canadas total fcutter make prairie creameries accounted for 62626200 of this production the balance being dairy butter in common with wheat butter pro duced in the prairie provinces is second to none in quality western canada creamieries scored heavily at the can adian national exhibition in toronto this year when a manitoba creamery won the silver cup for the highest scor ing creamery butter exhibited ten manitoba creameries and one from sas katchewan were- included in the first prize group for salted butter in a 1- pound box and in trie class for salted butter in a s6ipound box manitoba had 28 entries of which 27 obtained prizes his worry marget hang it man if your car has been stolen why dont you com municate with the police target im not worrying- about the car im wondering how they got the thing to gol the big reasons for hard times are bad characters and bad debts roger w baboon thresher rang up and said he wouldnt be ready to start until after dinner the neighbors had to be phoned again and those who had not got a telephone we had to go and see its after supper now the wreckage has been cleared away dishes washed table restored to its proper size all of course with the help of my big girl and boy partner with eyes reddened and bloodshot has gone out to milk his cows and i am just trying to keep awake long enough to finish this article if i dont succeed it wont be the first time i have gone to sleep at my job sometimes i sit on the chesterfield to write rough copy its a great mistake because after about halfanhour i come to my senses to find pencil and paper on the floor and myself recovering from a nice little snooze thats what happens if one is too comfortable r well its monday now and last weeks chronicle has spread itself over into this week because with the best inten tions in the world i found i simply couldnt write another word of course it is nearly as bad today because we had the threshers here until three oclock daughter wanted to stay home to help me a neighbor also phoned to offer assistance but i- thought i could manage alone i believeit- is nervousness that makes farm women think threshing is such a terrible ordeal nervousness and too much fussing i personally i am rather fond of ex perimenting and i believe the whole trouble lies in that last minute rush avoid that and the battle is half won my way may not be everybodys way but perhaps some women working alone might be interested in my ihethod and perhaps find one or two helpful hints slicing meat making and pouring tea making gravy dishing up vegetables these are the things that apparently need doing all at once which is quite impossible for one pair of hands about 1115 or 515 as the case may be i start dishing up meat cut in slices place on two platters cover with wax paper or canapar to keep meat frcm drying out and put in warm place gravy thicken in roasting pan then pour into small kettle until needed when it can be poured into tureens much more quickly tea make one pot of very strong tea and after about ten minutes pour through wire strainer into an aluminum pail or kettle add water until the right strength this way the tea never gets rank and can be poured quickly into large teapot or pitcher for serving instead of having cups and saucers on side table waiting to be filled ifput them at each place at the dining table and then just before the machine stops go round with my big pot and fill up the cups as i find men prefer tea that has cooled off a utile potatoes and other vegetables drain masn and leave tccntiincr standing on asbestos mat at the side of the stove so thats that now i must go down to the bam and help partner with the separating and then to bed and i shall not be counting sheep tonight of that i am certain i friday pa was out of

own tablets advertising is good for us that dusty picture of an optimist and a pessimist the optimist seeing the doughnut and the pessimist the hole is just a way of describing most of us some of us habitually look on the bright side of things others of us on the dark side always there are those who have a melancholy pleasure in faultfinding and so there are always those who look upon advertising as an economic waste and a meansby which the sale of inferior merchandise can be promoted it is quite possible to discover wrong things about advertising just as it is possible to find wrong things about water and air about books and speeches about motor cars and aeroplanes about schools and churches about canadians and scotsmen about knives and forks advertising is news and information and who shall say that it is wrong to communicate news and information it x would be a pretty dull world full- of dull people if there ceased to be a dissemination of newandinjormation v in all ages and in all countries those giving out news and information have attracted to themselves attentive audiences and this is as true today as it was 1000 2000 3000 years ago what stores are busiest is it not
