Waterloo, Oct. 1S.-To walk thirty

record made by Mrs. George Godfrey, of
Garwin 81 years of age, who started
at daylight from Watefloo last Friday
morning and reached the home of
Wylie Henderson, six miles southeast of
Gladbrook, at z o'clock that same
evening.
Mrs. Godfrey was bound for her own
home at Garwin, several miles farther
on, but being overtaken by drenching
rain she had to seek shelter at the farm
house. She arrived wet and dripping
and thoroughly exhausted by her long
days walk.
Dry clothes were provided for her
and a generous supper prepared. AS
the traveller had nothing to eat since
early morning, she was very hungry
and ate with relish the substantial meal
set before her. She was given COM

Henderson hitched up and took her to

When a little girl, Mrs. Godfrey was
an inmate of the Soldiers Orphans

she had an overwhelmingly desire to
visit the old place. The home is now
one of the buildings of the Iowa State
Teachers College, but; Mrs. Godfrey
enjoyed her visit nevertheless.
When she came to get on the train
to come home she found that she did
not have sufficient money to pay her

walk. instead. That she succeeded Sc

Not Only in Quantity But in Quality Of
Food, as Shown by Statistics.
New York, Oct. 16-Uncle Sam has
"let out" his belt He is getting fat
Perhaps in sympathy with President
Taft. Perhaps ne is making more
money.
During the present year the United
States haas consumed more food of all
classes by far than during 1906. This is
brought about chiefly by food conser-
walton by natural means. Basing per
capita statistics of the United States
and the biggest countries of Europe on
the consumption OF canned goods, the
United States is pointed to as the best
fed of all nations.
Taking peas, tomatoes and corn a.
the three leading vegetables, the sta
tistics show that during 1909 America
will eat close to s00,00O,000 cans of
those varieties, while during 1906, 1907
and 1908 the average annual con sulnp-
tion was only about 1000, 900 cans
Return of prosperity to all classes In
the United States is shown in a meas
ure by the fact that canned vegetables
are gaining in popularity. Not only dc
the figures point out that the. United
States leads in the quantity of food
, consumed. but is is shown also that the
sort of edibles now going to the labor
ing and middle classes is above the av-
erage in quality.
Relative to the preserved foods
canned products and the like, the in
crease in their use in the United States
during the recent months is due to the
general spread of the knowledge among
housewives that chemical preservatives
are not employed by the American
Gamers and that sterilization by heat
after the products are placed in ali,
tight cans is the only preservation
plan in use today
| Thus having confidence in the purit,
OF the food it buys, the American natior
is now consuming greater quantit,
and a better quality of edibles thar
ever before
