Few things are more useful or more
abused than the cold storage of food
products. In the producing season of
various edibles, there is usually sur
plus which must be wasted unless there
is some provision for preserving it for
use during the lean season. In the true
economy of existence this preservation
is the purpose Of cold storage. Bu5, in
the economy of dollar chasing, cold
storage has been used to increase prices
during the season of plenty, and to
make them still higher during the sea
son of scarcity. One of the effects Of
this has been to waste enormous guam
titles of food. In some instances it has
been found to be more profitable to let
some of such food rot, because the in
creased price of that which was saved
more than Offset the loss by waste. It
is true that this has not always been
the case, as was shown By the loss Of
the egg packers two years ago. But the
important thing is that the people
should not be robbed of food by the
cupidity Of the spectators. Waste
never made a people rich, no matter
how sons individuals have profted by
It, and The avoidance of such waste
would have served to give men and
women more strength ard ability to do
the work that the nation needs. We
have too many people who are strug-
gilng-and failing to make both ends
meet IN this land Of plenty.-Indiana-

II was Monday noon Old Martha,

washing. and would have been insulted
had her mistress suggested sending It
out; but being OF a pessimistic tenn

First. pick a handkerchief from

wished to wed; second. wash the
handkerchief in an honest miller's

person who has never been coyetous;

Independence Day in 1912 should
have new meaning. 1t should stand
for liberation from the old idea that
the only way to celebrate the birth
day of the country was by a saturnalia
Of noise, destruction and death. So
many better, more enjoyable and more
fitting obseryances Of the day have
devised and proved out. that there is
now no excuse for allowing the ami
versary to degenerate into mere
matter OF noise The san Fourt idea
is no longer a fad Il is an estab-
lished fact in such centers as New
York and Chicago. and IL these large
cities can control and prohibit the
nuisances Of dangerous explosives
there is little wonder that thousands
OF smaller cities and towns have also
barred the old-time riot of death and
destruction.
AS a result Of this movement the
Fourth Of July deaths last year, as
recorded by the Journal Of the Amer
lean Medical Association, We're only
81, as compared with 1Si in 1910 and
215 in 1909. while the roll OF injuries
was reduced in equal proportion. The
fire losses due to the celebration were
almost negligible III the cities 10 which
the sane Fourth was observed, as
against the former expectation that
the day would break all records for the
nnmber of alarms. These benefits
should be made general, and they VIII
be If the municipalities VIII enact and
enforce the necessary ordinances and
tie public sentiment 81 the community
viii stand behind them Independence
Day should mean too much to the ma
ton and the Individual in these times
Of change and progress to permit its
lessons to be obscured by an orgie Of
FIRE and noise. Conservation is now
the watchword, and a proper celebra-
tion OF the day VIII save the lives and
limbs Of thousands OF victims to the
cannon cracker and TOY pistol and pre-
vent the destruction OF millions Of
