A teacher was engaged and sustained out of their restricted food supplies and school is going on. There are many like instances in these days of difficulty. Their churches are kept up in the same way. Ministers are cheerfully living on less than half their salary in manses and parson- ages segregated in one or two rooms to save fuel expenses and are min- istering to their flocks without thought of further comfort or re- muneration, bring sweetness and light into homes where were it not for these ministrations might come gloom, discouragement and despair.

They will Influence a magnetic needle seventy feet away. The electrical strength Is strongest at midday, and weakest at midnight. In wet weather its powers disappear. Birds and Insects keep away.

BOON TO FARMERS Dr. William J. Hale, research con- sultant, and Dr. L. M.

"Our domestic gasoline require- ments were 17 billion gallona in 1929," Dr. Christensen said. "If the entire output of agricultural pro- ducts had been used for manufac- ture of motor fuel, the yield would not have been satisfied the demand." Dr. Halle pointed out that differ- ent crops in parts of the country could be used for alcohol produc- tion. DIFFERENT SECTIONS "In the south, it will probably be the sweet potato, in the north the potato and sugar beet, in the middle portion com, fruits and the Jerusa- lem artichoke." "By intensive use of new fertiliz- ers, Dr. Hale predicted, the fanner could produce 850 gallons of alcohol per acre at a cost price of ten cents per gallon."
