I am now into the real thing and believsa jae 1 never realised what war really was like until I came o»er here where they haye_ it in their own back yard. * The people over here have a tendency to be soft spoken and extreme- . ljr. polite but they are also plenty courageous and tough. Although thousands of British civilians have died under relentless bombings their morale seems to be high and unbreakable. These people are tough, ' strong and good allies. I don't believe any area of the same site in the United States has such a variety • of soenery--it's beautiful country from one coast to the other. The country looks a little shopworn and Ifrimy after four years of war--the houses badly in need of paint--the gardens and parks unkept and things ip general have an antique appearance. The British seem anxious for you to kAow that in normal times Britain loVks much prettier, cleaner, i and neater. They have certainly ! suffered, Earl, and our folks back home do not know what it means to • do without even with* the rationing that's going on.

In the tb?ef years 1938-41, the STtrage cost w^a $1,113.42; if this is taken as th^base income and increased: by the rate o4 increase in the cost of living index from those dates to September, 1942, contemplated in the wage formula of 20 per cent, the income figure would be $1,31,0. Con- B>f|MMitly, with increased' taxes? and. despite economies figured at the maximum, there would be a deficit of $147.60. These statements are made by the Heller Committee for Research in Social Economics, on the Berkeley campus of the University of California. The budget, it is stated, indicates possible retrenchments iii consumption in order to pay taxes, invest in war bonds, and still remain within the income limits set by the freezing order of October. It is pointed out that this program is not entirely feasible, because it assumes that tiie single working women's peacetime standard had sufficient slack to pay taxes, invest 10 per cent in war John Blomgren and Mr. and Mrs. Geo.

John C. Woodland, Maj. Mordecai M. McDowell and Capt. John T. Richards, medical corps, Army [ of the United States. The disease was first recognized in the spring and summer of 1942 at the Brooke General hospital, Fort Sam Houston, Texas. It is self limited in most instances and apparently confers immunity on those contracting it, since no recurrences have been observed. The onset of the disease usually was abrupt with an initial chill or chilly sensation ushering in the attack. Fever soon followed. A great majority of the men complained of headache. There was a pronounced lassitude, prostration, loss of appetite and general weakness during the fever stage of the disease and a few patients were nauseated and vomited. The fever lasted from 4 to 14 days and in the average case the temperature was elevated for a little over five days. Convalescence was protracted, especially if tfTe illness had been severe. There was loss of weight in a great many of the men. In the more severe forms of the disease a rash, resembling German measles and at times typhus, made its appearance early in the disease but disappeared within 48 hours. In about 10 per cent of the cases akin manifestations developed. From clinical observation, the authors report, it is apparent that the incubation period of the disease is from 7 to 10 days. Preserves Minerals All of the minerals in fruits and vegetables are preserved in dehydration, but vitamin content is reduced, the nutrition specialists sav. For Canning Carrots canning carrots pick thim fresh Jrom the garden. Fifty pounds make 40 pints. For very young carrots it is not necessary to remove the skin. Just wash thoroughly, trim, and then cut into slices or put them into the jars whole. Add one-half teaspoon salt per pint jar and fill with hot water. Agitate to expel the air. Process 90 minutes for pints and 100 minutes for quarts in. water bath or 30 to 35 minutes under 10 pounds pressure. Process partially sealed. Mixed Doubles-- C. Dowe, 192-606; M.

Fischer at Mukwonago, Wis., and in the Find Shut-Off for Leak evening attended the golden wedding In House Water System Shut off the water, if there's • leak. This involves knowing the location of the main shut-off valve for the house water supply, the bureau points out. This valve is usually found neat the basement floor level at the meter close to the wall nearest the street. Everyone in the family should know where to find i this valve. I The valve should be turned off and j on at least twice a year in order to , check on its free o eration. Valves j which have corny ed so that they { stick should be replaced. Have your i plumber take care of this at the j first opportunity. j If the leak is near a fixture, it I may not be necessary to shut off j the entire water supply for the | house. In every properly designed i plumbing system there are auxiliary ; stops in the supply piping near the : fixtures. In addition to valves in bonds, and still leave enough to cov-. j the branch lines, every fixture should er cost of essentials at .prices prevailing in March, 1943. The wartime budget includes $239.29 for taxes, $62.50 for purchase of war bonds, leaving $1,195.81 for consumption items. These are tabulated as follows: room and board, $782.93; clothing, $149.90; and miscellaneous, $262.98. This last item includes these provisions: medical and dental care, $44.51; care of the person, $29.66; recreation, $57.15, cigarettes, candy, etc., $24; association dues, $19.52; church and charity, $11; gifts, $7.72; stationery and_ postage, $3.02; incidentals, $9.14.

We are especially thankful that even though rationing has kept us from carrying as complete a line as formerly, nevertheless, we are still able to "open shop" each day, operating as we like, without fear of censorship and dictation. Come and visit us during the holiday season and see if we may have something you might want in the line in which you are interested. Remember, you still live where you can "take it or leave it." E.H.
