In view of the rationing program, homes will become tanning factories this summer and If you want a supply of fruits and vegetables, it behooves us to grow and can our supply.

His talk before the farmers at Michigan State College yesterday bristled with confidence and an understanding of the job of sowing and harvesting sugar beets. Mr. Callaud said that new American developed segmented seed would produce better beets, that machinery and tools would be used I to cope with the shortage of workers and that much of the stoop labor drudgery would thus be eliminated. America needs Its sugar industry and with companies, like th, local sugar refinery biasing the way to help the farmer and grower produce the crop, this country will have sugar on the table. His address was timely and very instructive. —o Hoosier Farm Recruits: An interesting and timely experiment is being tried at Purdue University to relieve the shortage of farm labor in central and northern Indiana The alate's first rural war production training school is getting under way with “students” drawn from the less productive areas of southern Indiana.

"I wont pay over a thousand.” “Done!" agreed Farrish. "Well argue over a seriee," concluded Brangwin. "How do I get out of this chamber of horrors?” "Thia way,* said Farrish.

It was not by any means the only effort by an advertiaing agency to secure thia glittering piece of business, but both Clyde and Sam Britton felt they had something new, something original, and that it waa certain, at least, to receive serious consideration. 00 0 0 One afternoon Darnley was posing for an artist in a great building in midtown New York. His studio was on the same floor with that of Laeey Gorse, and she walked past the letter’s door rapidly lest ' she should encountor him. She finished Into in the afternoon, and stepped out into the hall on her way to the elevators. As she did so a man who had just gotten off ' the lift waa walking rapidly down 1 the long corridor. She could see 1 only his back, a roughly clad back, ’• but there was something vaguely familiar about it She saw him enter Goree’s doer. She had not been able to see hie face, only his - forehead and an eye. 1 It annoyed her that she eould not place him.
