BUTCHER SAYS LOEB SAVES
100000 YEARLY ON MEATS
Joseph W. Salus Compliments Di-
rector of Supplies for Municipal
Economv

An average of 100000 year has been
saved the city in the purchase OF meats
and poultry since the incumbency Of Dl-
rector Loeb, according to n letter written
the Director by Joseph w salus. Of the
firm of A. salus &c Son, packers.
The testimonial to Director Loebs
operation of the Department of Supplies
came after bid of the Salus firm for
furnishing $4,000 worth of meats to the
Bureaus of Charity and Correction had
been rejected because 1t was not accom-
panied by the required bond and the
award was made to the Froesch Pack
ing Company.
Mr. Salus called on Director Loeb and
learned that, although his bid was $50
lower than the one that received the con-
tract, the readvertising of the contract
would cost the city $50 and delay receiv-
ing of the supplies until late In December.
He was convinced the Director has
adopted the proper course. In advising
Mr. Loeb Of his belief he wrote;
II have calculated that the various
changes mean a saving of at least $500, 900
a year during your administration, and
give opportunity to other than favored
contractors to obtain business"
SRlus was a recipient of contracts under
the past Administrations.

BEWARE OF COLD STORAGE
TURKEYS AT LOW PRICES
Some Dealers Inclined to Forget Law
When Offering Ancient Gobblers.

Thousands OF Philadelphia housewives
are considering the turkey problem to-
day. Each Is examining the stock of
gobblers and each Is wondering how she
can be sure that the one she buys is a
"sure-enough good turkey" 1t Is a
hard problem. but there are a few funda-
mental points which should be considered.
If the price of the bird Is exceptionally
low II is wise to proceed cautiously, for
there are many cold-storage turkeys held
over that must be disposed Of, and al
though dealers are compelled by law
to declare cold-storage products as such.
some are inclined to forget the law and
offer the birds as fresh turkey of a
poorer quality.
1t is hard for any one not an expert
to Identify n cold-storage turkey.
If a turkey is discolored, with a
tendency to appear green, the bird has
spoiled in shipment. II is green"
turkey-thousands of these were con-
demned In this city last year as being
unfit for sale-and it is not wise to take
any chances on such birds. On the
other hand, a turkey that appears blue
Is not spoiled 1t is merely n spring fowl
that has not been properly fattened.
Those who wish to be confident of the
gobbler to be purchased will select a
plump, bird with firb, white skin, clear
eyes and wings and neck that do not
appear dried and discolored

zOLINE, NEW MOTOR
FUEL, MAY Be MADE
AT THRILLING COST
Discovery Will Enable
Motorists to Produce Sub
stitute for Gasoline at Two
Cents a Gallon.

Stills for manufacture of zoline, the
new two-cent-a-gallon substitute for
gasoline, will shortly be brought to Phil
adelphia by automobilists to give the fuel
as thorough a test as given at Indian
apolis. Orders have been placed by sew
eral well-known motorists, and the stills
will be sent here as soon as they can be
manufactured.
lis, where automobile manufacturers put
zoline through a rigid test, that instead
Of marketing the product at so much
per gallon, II has been decided to market
tho still. A formula for making the fuel
will accompany each still, This will allow
the consumer to manufacture his own
fuel and keep as large a supply on hand
as he may desire.
The manufacture of zoline consists
mainly in the collection OF large quanti-
ties of rain water, for this fluid forms
about nine-tenths of the ingredients Of
zolne. The other ingredients consist Of
certain coal tar products, chiefly naphtha-
line. which can be bought at small prices
SOLVES FUEL PROBLEM.
The still can be placed in any back
yard and the assembling of 1t is quite
simple. The manufacture of the stills
will begin at once and those back Of
the project state that with the stills on
the market the high cost of motor fuel
will be solved
The first opportunity the East will have
to zee the new product will be at the New
York Automobile Show. A still Is to be
placed at the show and zoline produced.
The mixing of the chemicals with rain
water will be open to public inspection.
Philadelphia automobilsts have placed
orders for these stills soon as they
are manufactured. but their orders will
probably not be tlled before the first Of
the year.
A 1OO0-MILB TEST.
The final test OF the effect OF zoline on
the motor of the automobile used in the
1000 mile run on the Indianapolis Speed
way has proven that the fuel has no
chemical effect on the engine. Accord
ing to the report OF a technical commit
tee the test has showed zoline to bo supe-
Tior TO gasoline in many ways, besides
being more economical.
Officials OF gasoline rehneries acLnowl-
edge that II zollne is what its promoters
claim IL will mean the end OF gasoline
for use In motor cars and launches.
While they have taken no official action,
It Is announced the subject will probably
be considered at the next meeting OF the
National Petroleum Association.

We have learned to adjust certain &c

at first We have conquered our aver

to use them to our advantage. We have
gone far, in other words. toward making
the best of the salad that was handed US

that we can go no further.
Possibly we can go further, STYLES OF
another season are not vet decided upon.
and there is always a faint chance that
the designers may be somnolent in Feb

what has served US for the last six
months.
That would be bad for business, though,
and not only those engaged in the per-
formance of buying and selling clothes
would regret such Incidence on the part
of those who are depended upon to stir
up things twice a year, but women would
be disappointed. A change Of line is
not always to be expected, although We
have had enough experience in the last
four wears to make us wary just there,
but there must always be a change some
where, if clothes are to be kept moving.

suitable for a child inclined to fat
ness, for cereal and the milk or cream
eaten with it are somewhat fattening.
For the adult who eats more than

The charm Of the winter breakfast
lies in its heat. Lukewarm coffee. cold

winter they are intolerable. A perco-
lator is ideal for coffee making. as it
furnishes coffee always fresh and pip

toaster can be prepared just as it Is
wanted. and so that can always be kept
hot. Eggs can be cooked in an cleo

a hot breakfast can be served without
these conveniences. Coffee can be
poured from the pot in which it was
made into china pot heated with boil
