Methods of flame-proofing in- flammable fabrics have not elimi- nated the hezards, partly because the effectiveness "of the treatment depends upon the skill of the flame-" proofer and partly because the = flame-proofing must be renewed at regular intervals," involving a gecurring. expense, Within the past year, research has enabled the glass-base fabrics to be dyed in many brilliant solid . colors and shades, in stripes, fig- ures, or prints, In weight, most of the materials compare with damask or heavy satin. + They fall into attractive folds but do" not retain wrinkles. All can be dry-cleared and the whites can be laundered and ironed. Because they are made of glass they are moth-proof. Also, they "will not rot or disintegrate under © sing ab the severest climatic conditlons, and they will not stretch nor sag under changes in humidity, Their colors are fast to sunlight and cleanings, Too Bad Private Jones had been in the army a week when the sergeant asked: "What do you think of the army so far?' "T my like it after a while," re- plied Jdnes, "but just now I think there's foo much drilling and fus- t between meals." How Can I? By Anne Ashley Q. How can I clean velvet? A. Use a stiff brush for remov-- ing dust, and dip a cloth in pow- dered magnesia and clean the vel- vet with a smooth motion, Q. How should chamois skin be washed? 'A, A chamois cloth should be washed -in soapy water, rinsed in © water of the same temperature and pressed carefully on a flat surface to dry after using. This will keep the skin soft and pliable, Q. How can I make a good sa- fad? a A. Try using cooked or canned snap beans, cooked -carrots diced, and chopped onion or chopped celery. This combination will make a good salad, - / Q. How can I remove tar from clothing? A. To remove auto grease, tar and ordinary grease, soak the ma- terial in gasoline and then wash with soap in the usual manner. Q. How can I make a dustless duster? A. By dipping a clean cloth into a mixture of 2 tablespoonfuls of linseed oil and 1 pint of gasoline or benzine. Hang the cloth outside in the shade to dry before using. Always keep cloth in a tin recep- tacle with tight-fitting lid. Do' not-, handle gasoline or benzine near a fire.

For Attacking Japan Ceylon, the big island-in the In- dlan Ocean where Lord Louis Mountbatten has established, in hill country, his headquarters as chief of 'the Southwest Asia Com- mand, is a British Crown colony, The capital and chief port is Columbo, There is a naval base at Trincomalee. The island had an estimated pop- ulation in 1940 of about 6,000,000 people. The last census showed some 9,000 Europeans and nearly 38,000 Burghers . (a mixture of [ oT native strains). Historically, Ceylon was held first by the Portuguese, and then by the Dutch, who were dis-. placed by the British, the National Geographic Society explains, Ceylon's key position along peacetime's busy trade and travel routes hetween the Near and Far East makes it now a vital control point for military supply lines, as _well as a defense bastion, and a "potential springboa-d for future offensives. As an island close to a great mainland objective of the enemy, Ceylos occupies a geo- graphic position similar to that of fallen Singapore.

This conversion of wheat to live stock feeding has been a wartime devel- opment of note not only in Can- ada but also in the United States. During the five years before the war, the average amount of wheat fed to live stock and poultry an- nually in Canada was 32,000,000 bushels. against 'human food re- quirements .of approximately 44,- 000,000 bushels, In the crop year ' 1943-44 human consumption of wheat .is expected to total 50,000,- 000 bushels-and the animal con- sumption more than = 100,000,000 bushels,' Nazi Prisoners In Zoo Cages All the German sailors and soldiers and Quislings and collabor- ationists taken by the local re- sistance movement, are behind the bars of the Antwerp Zoo. They have been put there be- cause it is the obvious place. The 200 lies beside the main railway station in the centre of the city and the cages have strong bars, 'Nothing would be more. suitable, but it is a fantastc sight.

A commercial traveller got held up in the Orkney Islands on ac- count of bad storms and sent a te- legram to his firm in Aberdeen say- ing: "Marooned by storm, Wire in- structions."

I am a king," the man explained, "Satan told me so." At which a furious voice sounded from the next cubicle: "I 'told you nothing of the kind." Hunt Poor Milkers By Weighing Milk Hunt the poor milkers with scales, urges The Ottawa Farm Journal, It does not take one min- ute per cow.

Sale Of Feeder Cattle To Be Held At Little Current The largest co-operative sale of feeder cattle ever plinned in Central -Canada will take place at ttle Cuerent, Manitoulin Island, Ontario, Sept. 26-27. At that time, members of the newly formed Manitoulin Livestock co-cperative willis offer for sale approximately 1900 head of Shorthorns and Here- fords contributed by three to four hundred cattle producers. Past experience in co-operative market- ing of turkeys and sheep on the Island, it is believed, assures the success of this new cattle enter- prise. The beef cattle of Manit- oulin Island have long been noted for their excellent type. In ad- dition to their high health stan- dards, practically. all the cattle on the Island are free from warble flies due to an intensive campaign put on a few years ago.

The Pope's Appeal To Great Britain Referring to the robot-bomb at-. tacks on London, Pope Pius XII appeals to Londoners to "bear their trials with fortitude and with Christian sentiments of forgiveness, charity and mercy so that God may reward what the world will admire--an example of magnani- mity Inspired by -the spirit of Christ's gospel." } Wouldn't it be better If His Holiness turned his appeal around and first asked the Germans to cease from this callous form of murder of women and children? --St. Thomas Times-Journal pon ACCOUNTANTS & AUDITOHNS FARM PRODUCE PATENTS COMPLETE MONTHLY SERVICE, BDASTERN LIVESTOCK FEEDERS FETHERSTONHAUGH & COMPANY small businesses our speclalty.: can obtain carload lots of barley Patent Sollcltors.
