Concerning Breakfast Foods.

In view of the general and sub
stantial increase in the cost of living
it is obviously the plain duty of
everyone responsible for the provi-
sioning of the household to inquire
diligently into the actual value of GER
tain food stuffs, which are so at
tractively put up and advertised
by their manufacturers. Unques-
tionably there is at present an enor-
nous consumption of the so-called
prepared cereal breakfast foods
which reach the consumer in COM
paratively small cartons or contain
ers. Commemorate arguments have
been advanced in favor of the cereal
breakfast foods put up in this way
In the main they center upon such
claims as increased palatability, in
surance of n-contamination on
the way from the manufacturer to
the consumer, and ease of prepare
ton for the table. A simple calcu-
lation at the time of purchase will
reveal the extravagant prices often
paid for single pound Of the par
ticular cereal in question, particu-
larly if it be remembered that the
man who produced the raw product
received for a like amount not to
exceed one and one half cents. The
consumer of the partly prepared ,ex-
pensively cartoned, and highly ad-
yertised cereal breakfast foods may
well ask, Am l getting my mon
ey's WORTH" The average consumer
needs to be reminded that in the
preparation of the above mentioned
classes of foods the same cereals,
viz: corn, oats and wheat are used
as in the preparation of the more
commonplace raw meals which ordi-
narily can be secured in much larger
bulk and consequently at a much
lower price per pound. When prop
erly cooked these meals are highly
nutritious and palatable. There is
no really good reason why they
should not in the average family be
given preference over the more ex-
pensive cartoned article.

MAKING FIGHT ON HOG LICE
Excellent Remedy Is Lard and kero-
some OIL, About Equal Parts
Will Not InJure the Skin.
(By A. j. LEGG1


1t has been continuous fight with
me against the hog lice When think
| have them killed out some neigh
Dor brings lousy SOW for breeding
and as result there are plenty Of lice
left to stock the entire herd. Then
| have to make fight against hog
lice again.
II the sows have only few lice
when the pigs are narrowed the entire
litter Will soon be polluted with lice.
| have seen numbers OF half grown
lice on the pigs before they were a
week old.
Last spring l mixed hcg's lard and
kerosene oil. about equal parts, and
creased the sows with 1t about ten
days before they were due to farrow,
then in a few days | went over them
again with the grease.
This killed the lice out so there
was not a louise found on the pigs
from the time they were narrowed
until they were weaned.
Either the kerosene oil or the lard
will kill the lice all right, but the
kerosene by itself will irritate the
skin and will soon evaporate while the
lard will stay on the hogs for several
days. This mixture will not injure the
skin.

FOR PARCELS POST SYSTEM
New Stamps VIII Be Ready for Dis
tribution January LIST.

When the new parcels post law
recently enacted by congress goes
into effect January /, stamps desig-
ned exclusively for Use in the new
branch of service will be used.
Postmaster General Hitchcock has
arranged for the engraving and
manufacture of series of II stamps
to be used in forwarding packages.
The stamps will be unique in size
and design. Under the new law
ordinary stamps cannot be used.
The special parcels post stamps
will be larger than the ordinary
mail stamps. The colors and de-
signs will be so distinctive that there
will be no possibility of confusion
with the stamps now in use.
Three series Of designs are to be
used. The first will illustrate mod
ern methods of transporting mail,
one stamp showing the mail car on
a railroad train, another an ocean
mail steamship, a third an automo-
bile now used in the postal service
and a fourth the dispatch of mail
by telephone.
The second series will show at
work in their several positions, the
four great classes of postal employ
ees-postoffice clerks, railway mail
clerks, city letter carriers and rural
delivery carriers.
The third series will show four in
dustrial scenes representing the
principal sources of products that
will probably be transported ex-
tensively by parcels post. The new
parcels post stamps will be ready
for distribution by December |, so
that the 10000 postoffices may be
readily supplied them before the
new law goes into operation.
