German identification of the famous Fifth Army as an equally divided British and American force was confirmed in high mill tary quarters, disclosing the fact that for the first time in this war - "there exists a complete "Allied Army." : It was not the American Fifth Army which won the battle of the beaches, but the Allied Fifth Army --an Army consisting of three American and three British divi slons, There were Instances in Tun- isla and Sicily where American units were attached temporarily to gome British Army and where Bri- tish units served in an American Army organization. But the Fifth which fought and won at Salerno Is an entirely different thing. It is a complete army organization made up of equal numbers of Bri- tish and American divisions. The merging of British and Am- erlcan forces in the higher ech- elons of command has been wide- ly known for some fime. This is the first time, however, where the principle .of Anglo-American mill- tary co-operation has heen carried down into the merging of combat unlts (into a single unified army organization, GUNNER GABLE.

Slowly he thawed and warmed towards the woman of whom he had always. been quietly fond, whom he had always admired without praise and had approved without acknowledgment. And when he realized that she had come to India with no other _ object or-reason than to try-to find him, to help him in any way that might he possible and to ad- vise him wisely and induce him to return, he was more moved and touched than he would admit even to himself. - The child who had been a good scout, a sound pal, had grown up into a remark- able woman. Quite unconsciously he put his arm about her shoul- ders nad drew her to him. y " "Oh, Dickie. You do forgive me? "Yes," replied Richard Wend- over.

' (Continued Next Week) Report On Grain Crops In Ontario Yields of spring grain, now practically cut and throughout the province, are far below normal and will not be suf- . ficient to, meet the demands for * livestock feeding, according to the monthly crop report of the On- tario Department of Agriculture. . Several ears of Western grain: have been ordered to meet the "shortage, and many more wil be required to maintain productidn of meat, milk and eggs and prbvide seed grain for next spring. Fall grains and feed crops, the report said, show prospects of better yields. All classes of livestock are re- ported in good condition, but pur- chases of feeder cattle are down due to high prices and érop short- ages. Demand for dairy cattle and sows is good. ; © A drop in the potato crop is ex- pected, due to weather conditions, the high cost of seed and the scarcity of labor.

The substance, .which has been: named marvinol, is not a syn- thetic rubber, Martin declared, but a new material better suited for many of the purposes for which rubber has been used than rubber itself, "The new chem-elastic ~sub- 'stance, which in effect makes it possible to manufacture inner -tubes from coal, salt and water on standard rubber fabricating equipment has been picked out . of the research laboratory before its uses have been fully exploit- ed," Martin said in a statement. "This was done because we were aware taat marvinol an- swered critical war needs--espe- cially for automobile inner tubes and delicate gloves for surgeons." Martin said "that one of the principal Sdianisges of the sub- stance was that it was 100 per cent reclaimable -- a property which he said "may in itself revo- lutionize the entire inner tube industry." [a ' Another valuable property, he said, is marvinol's ability to retain "air when used in inner tubes. Arctic Country Farmers' Paradise Grain, Vegetables Flourish In Short Hot Summer Perhaps -the most flourishing part of the world at the present time is Alaska. Its rapidly increas- , Ing population have no fear of alr "raids "or invasion and they are in- tensely busy producing not only minerals but food stuffs. For long Alaska has figured as an Arctic country where the only products were gold and furs. To- day it has become a great farming © centre. True, the winter is long and cold, but the growth in sim. mer Is incredibly swift, A visitor to Fort McPherson, which is - North of the Arctie Circle, sdys that on June 20th new buds on the trees were just per- ceptible. Forty-eight hours later the trees were in full leaf. In July it was unbearably hot... On five days in July the average shade temperature was 95 deg. Fahren- heit. Potatoes do well, and have been grown successfullyi, sixty miles north of the Arctic Circle. Cab- bages, cauliflower, 'let(uce, car- rots, parsnips, beet, 'onions and rhubarb all: flourish during the short, warm summer: : The Russians tell the same story. At Igarka In Arctic Siberia the cabbages ate finer than those grown on the Volga. Flowers are marvellous, Violets, marguerites, . forget-met-nots are twice the us- ual size, At Khibin on the Kola Peninsula 20 tons of potatoes have been dug from an acre, Oats grow five feet high, barley and wheat ripen, and all kinds of vegetables flourish, ; British Cheese. .

Later, butter production was encouraged by subsidies. ; i Now butter 'production has in-. creased to the point where it is possible to make a quantity avail- able to the United Kingdom 8 well as meet, Canadian ration fe- quirements and the needs of the forces at home, as well as supply - ships 'entering Canadian ports. The subsidy on milk to be used in cheese production will be 30 cents a<100 pounds and will be payable from October 1 to April 30. Officials said they hoped the effect would be to keep dairy . herds in cheese manufacturing areas up to full production dur- ing the coming fall and winter months, | : Cuts Consumption Of Fuel In Half A method by which "three or four shovels of coal will keep burning for 24 hours and give - plenty of heat" has been devised by Wilfrid S. Higgins of Niagara Falls. Fuel consumption is cut more than half during the months when only a small fire js required, he said, by "bricking up" one side of the firepot, thereby reducing the size of the pot. "You simply put a bed of ashes on top of the grates on one side -of "the firepot. Then lay the brick§ on that, piling them one on top of the other loosely. Five or six bricks are sufficient. Cover them with- a light surface of ashes."
