How to Save Flour.

Advancing prices for wheat make it
necessary in many families to econ
omize on this item as far as possible.
Bread that is as wholesome and digest
able as all wheat can be made of a
mixture of three pounds wheat -four
and one pound corn -four, or in that.
proportion. There will be no differ
ence in the taste or appearance of the
loaf. and the bread will keep fresh
longer. Fifty per cent of corn -four
can be used for all kinds Of cakes and
pastry" These statements are made
on the authority of C. j. Murphy, the
corn expert who did so much to in
crease the consumption of corn in
Europe, Corn flour and wheat -four
mixed in these proportions are now in
general use throughout Germany and
Belgium.-Orange Judd Farmer.

The Baltimore American says that
the body Of polar bear floating in
midocean, sighted by the steamship
Tomplemore, now in port, IS probably
the sequel to the tragic story told re-
Gently by Capt. Jacobs of the North
German Lloyd steamship Hanover,
who reported having seen at sea q
huge iceberg on which six large polar
bears were walking about. When the
dead bear was first seen It was
thought to have been a large piece OF
ice, but on closer inspection the ma
ture of the object became apparent.
That the dead bear was one of the
six which Capt. Jacobs saw there is
little doubt 1t is probable that the
berg on which the animals were slow
~ drifting to their doom eventually
melted by coming In contact with
a warm current of water, and the pas
sengers on the floating berg were
compelled TO swim for it; or, perhaps.
the bear found by the Templeton,
suffering from hunger, left his com.
panlons on the remnants Of the berg.

THE BANANA.
Fruit That Rlpens on the Plant Is
MOI Suitable For Food.

Not suitable For Food.
There is a vast amount OF ignorance
| prevailing among intelligent people Of
the north concerning the growth pro
duction aud marketing Of bananas.
Many people imagine that the natives
in tropical climes step ont Of their huts
in the early morning and pluck and
eat bananas from tie plant the same
as they would oranges and other fruits.
! Bananas rippncd on the plant are not
/ suitable for food ana would be much
| the same as the pIth which Is found III
the northern cornStalk or elder. Ba
| nanas sold In the United States, even
after travelling 5000 mics in a green
state, arc'evcry Bit rs good MS bananas
ripenod under Il tropical sun, This is
probably true Of no other export fruit
The plant Of which bananas is the
fruit is not a tree nor Is ii 4 bush Or
vine. 1t is simply gigantic plant,
growing TO height of from fifteen 10
twenty feet. About eighteen feet from
the ground the leaves, ofttimes eight
feet long, come out IN a short cluster
from the center OF which springs
bunch Of bananas. These do not grow
with the bananas pointing upward nat
urally and il the stem grew straight
they would hang exactly rs seen ia
the fruit stores and grocers' windows.
This, however, is not the case. The
stem bends under the weight OF the
fruit, and this brings it into directly
the opposite direction, with the large
end of the stalk up ana the frlnges
pointing toward the sun.
y word Of explanation concerning
some banana terms Each banana il
called finger" and each of these lit
tie clusters Of fingers surrounding a
stalk is called hand" The quality
and value Of each bunch depend on the
number Of hands it has, Some may
wonder how the fruit is cut from the
top Of a plant fifteen feet from the
ground The native laborers cut the
stalk part way UP its height The /
weight OF the fruit causes the stalk |
TO slowly bend over until the bunch /.
of bananas first nicely reaches the /
ground then the bunch is cut off with /
the ever ready machete and carried !
TO the river or railroad for shipment. |
The plant at the same time is cut /
close to the ground. The banana Is a 1
very prolific producer of itself, and /
at every cleaning of the land II Is
necessary to cut down many of the
young plants, on suckers" as they are
termed, in order that they may not
become ovcrcrowded up to a certain
limit. The fewer suckers on given
area the larger the fruit they will pro
