Having been In close touch with the Board and its proceedings >for many years- and' having audited the books of all of the County officers for the past two years, and having made comparisons with the operations of other Boards, I feol that I am fair ly well qualified to pass judgment on our Board. I feel that many of our citizens CANADA SAW WHITE MEN 600 YEARS AGO Enyralred Stone Indicates Pretence of Norsemen. are not familiar with the manyddiu tle that devolve, not only upon the T3oard as a whole, but upon the individual supervisor of eaeh township. The Board of Supervisors of Rlc Henry county has for many years Lad the reputation of being not only highly efficient but also ultra-conservative in tha expenditure ot the county's money. During the past few years many new have been enacted ° under which the Board was compelled to spend money, regardless of whether it wanted to or not • New Laws Enacted It became its duty for instance, to make appropriations for mother's pensions, amounting during the past year to $15,265; for relief of indigent; veterans and their families, amounting to $4,105; for- pensions of blind persons, amounting to $5,566.25; to say nothing about the large approriations that had to >be made for securing rights of way for state roads, although the latter came largely out of gas tax funds. In addition to special matters re ferred to, the Board has to provide for th© maintenance of £he county home at Hartland, for which expenditures of $23,316.64 were made for the year ending December 1, 1932. During the same year other principal expenditures were made as follows- Pauper aid $14,089.61 Superintendent of highways, salary and expenses 3,615.97 County highways, covering1* the patrolling of 17 road • Y districts, building of sev- . eral miles of new county roads, purchase of machinery and repairs 61,987.20 Cleaning snow from high-. ways 1,%82.23 Eradication of cattle tubdfr- ' culosis „ " 5,244.64 Additions and. ^repa,irs on buildings and ground! 9,082.is No outlay8 were made on accovint of salaries for clerk hire of sheriff, county clerk, treasurer or recorder, as all these offices are not only self sustaining, but large amounts of excess earnings are turned in by them each year. The following comparative state- Winnipeg.--The mythology of Manitoba's white man's history goes hack 571 years. Dr. D. A. Stewart president of the Manitoba Historical society, announced in Winnipeg. "There is a good deal of reason to believe that white men traveled along the Red . river 571 years ago," Mr. Stewart said. His belief 19 based on the fact that in 1899 a stone was found along the upper waters' of the Red river on which were described in Runic characters the hardships and adventures of a party of Goths and Norsemen, who had left their ship and Journeyed from Hudson bay and up the Red river into North Dakota and Minnesota as they are now known. The surmise was. said Doctor Stewart, that these were members of an expedition known to have left Norway in 1359, in search of settlers missing from Greenland, said to have gone to that land about 1354. The authentic, documented history of the white man In Manitoba, Doctor Stewart continued, dates, back to 1012, when Manitoba was discovered as a by-product of the search for the Northwest passage, Thomas Button, leading an expedition of two ships, having landed near the mouth of the Nelson river during that year. The subsequent history of Manitoba after that was divided Into five periods by Doctor Stewart. These be classified as the period of --discovery, the period of trade monopoly, ushered In by the chartering of Prince Ku|>ert's Company of Gentleman Adventurers, the period of fur trade rivalry, the most romantic period of the five, the colonial period, opened by the arrival of the Selkirk settlers, and the period of provincial life.

JVnCntionul of tJu Ehzobeth McCortnick Memorial Ftuii <dm2 Director df Nutrition Service, Illinois Emergency Relief Commitsion. Our Most Nearly Perfect Food That a liberal quantity of milk taken dally will contribute toward prolonging life and preserving the characteristics of youth Is an Interesting fact that is perhaps not widely known. Of course almost everyone knows that for what Is commonly referred to as "good heAJ,th" children- should have a qugrt of milk each day If possible and adults at least a pint, but It Is well to remember that for excellent health as compared to merely passable bealth, adults should take more than & pint daily either as a beverage or In cooking, Experiments with children show also that a quart of milk a day not only improves children's general physical health but also tends to increase" their mental alertness apd to improve their dispositions. All this Is, naturally, good news to the housewife for the task of feeding the family is tremendously simplified when we know that it is possible without any cooking or special preparation to pour out a glass of milk for each member of the family three times a day or oftener and be assured thai they are receiving one of the most nu tritious and economical foods we can give them. It is rarely that the easy thing is also the right thing but in this case it is so. 1 The preparation 6f the other foods In the day's menu is also made much easier when we have at hand milk and the other dairy products. We never miss the water till the well runs dry and we would probably more truly appreciate Low much we depend on the dairy products if we were suddenly confronted with the task of creating three appetizing, nutritious meals every day without their aid. Milk serves to improve the flavor of other foods; it makes them go farther; helps to make other foods more nearly complete; Increases the energy value of vegetables; iand supplies to cereals some of the minerals in which they are lacking. The fact that milk gives, the best 'ood value for the money and that there is absolutely \no waste tp it are two furt ler advantages that the housewife welcomes* especially Just at this time. Even sour milk can he easily utilized. Many recipes specifically require It and in any case it can be sub stituted for sweet milk in cooking by using the same amount of sour milk as sweet In the recipe and adding % teaspoon of soda for each cup of milk and subtracting half of the% baking powder called for in the original recipe. Buttermilk is a good old-fashioned: drink that Is again coining Into popularltj because of its pleasing taste as well as its beneficial effect on the-: digestion. ' r Since milk has siich A direct effect . on health It has also a great deal to do with our appearance. As a beauty treatment It probahly is of most importance in building strong, healthy teeth and controlling weight. Milk !i> indispensable in the reducing diet for it contains most of the elements necessary for a well-balanced diet It is a relatively low-calorle food and in itself Is not fattening. Probably It Is because of milk's wealth of minerals and vitamins that people have come to think of It as a "rich" food. It is rich but not in producing excess fat With the general return to simpler" ways of living, it is natural that we should return also to these basic foods which have nourished the human race since the beginning of time. Present conditions which have forced nutritionists to discover the very cheapest possible way people can eat and still maintain life and health have caused • them to rediscover that in the final analysis the dietary should be built around bread and milk--bread for carbohydrates and some mlnernla; milk for calcium, phosphorus, the most easily used proteins and the necessary vitamins. Any cereal product can take the place of bread but nothing can fully take the place of fresh milk. Briefly, in "Choosing Foods Wisely" you may be assured that If you choose first milk and the other dairy p^oducts you will not only be safeguarding the family health and well being but also the family budget, for milk does more for the body and does It more cheaply than any othfr food, and thus is Indispensable not only in the diet of the child but also the adult. i, T ' * Make Food Dollars Go Farther!
