Wear the shoes that nearly killed you before, says this Cincinnati authority, because a few drops of freezone applied direct ly on a tender, aching corn stops soreness at once and soon the com loosens so it can be lifted out, root and all, without a bit of pain. A quarter of an ounce of freezone costs very little at any drug store, but is sufficient to take off every hard or soft com or callus. This should be tried, as it is inexpensive and is said not to inflame or even ir ritate the surrounding tissues or skin. If your wife wears high heels she will be glad to know of this. advt.

There are two purposes in the de partment's action in this matter; first, to relieve the inconvenience of making frequent long trips to mill on the part of the farmer; and, sec ond, to encourage the production of v.heat in the state, where it is so badly needed. Under the food administration’s present r ules the quantity of wheat flour which any person may have on hand is limited to six pounds per per son for one month, regardless of whether or not he produced the wheat from which it is made. A specific case in point w r ill illustrate the difficulties of the situation as applied to the .small producer. Among many letters which the de oartment has received on this subject, is one from W. Shnnon Elder, a mil ler, of Watkinsville. Mr. Elder tells of a farmer who drove fourteen miles to bring ten bushels of wheat to his mill to be ground. It was all the wheat he had raised to supply his family for the year. Under the food administration’s rule Mr. Elder could grind only one bushel for him. He had to haul back home nine bushels of wheat, and travel to the mill every thirty days to get another bushel ground for his month's supply for his family. Commissioner of Agriculture J. J. Brown believes the food administra ; tion vvll gladly relax the ruling to I fit cases of this kind, of which there are many, for the reasons stated. He ,has, accordingly, laid these cases be fore the food administration, point ing out the difficulties, which have arisen, and asked that if possible, j some steps should be taken to remedy a situation which is liable to inter fere with food production more than it helps food conservation.
