Reduction in Living Costs Made Pos
sbIe by Perfect Product.

The sudden and highly alarming In
crease in cost of food necessities, such
as sugar and -four, demand increased
domestic economy. For incomes have
not advanced with this wartime soar
ing of food prices.
Waste of food as well as cost OF
food must be considered and m1n1miZed

Fortunately the greatest food waste
with which the housewife has to con-
tend-bake-day failures and the waste
of costly baking materialS-iS rendered

Calumet is an absolutely sure baking
powder of absolute purity. It never
fails to produce fully raised bakings
that are tender and temptingly deli
cious. For it's wonderful leavening
strength never varies. It's always uni
form-and always unexcelled. :.
To pay more than is asked for Calu-
met simply means a useless waste of
money. To pay less, and obtain an in
ferior powder, means the useless waste
of Baking Materials.
Order a can of Calumet. Save SUBJ

CAR GOES 28.7 MILES
ON GALLON OF GASOLINE
Red Crown Shows Remarkable Test

Judged by C. A. c. Committee.
Surprising results were obtained
Tuesday in Chicago, when, in dis
lance test on the boulevards, 1915
big six went 28.7 miles on gallon Of
Red Crown gasoline. The test was
made to demonstrate the fuel economy
of high test gasoline, by the technical
committee of the Chicago Automobile
Club.
Red Crown gasoline, So test, was de-
cided upon by the Judges and drivers
as the best gasoline to be used. All
through the trip the clutch was not
slipped, except when traffic congestion
made it necessary. The dash adjust
ment on the carburetor was discon-
nected, and in order that the test be
a fair one, the fan was in operation
throughout the run.
Next came the acceleration test.
With the carburetor adjustment the
same as during the economy run, the
car was driven frt IN standing start to
thirty miles an hour in IL 30 seconds.
The flexibility test saw the car run
at four miles an hour, then speeded
up to forty-four.
The test proves that the six is not
an excessive fuel consumer, where the
best gasoline is used.

cattle ultimately eradicate the dis
ease. The federal guarantees are &C
companied by state and local quaran-
tines of individual infected farms.
From these no produce whatsoever
can be sent out. In many cases chill
dren are not even permitted to go to
school, and the farmer canno. drive
his horses on the public highways. \
Stock Raisers Should Help.
The chief obstacle in the way OF the
successful prosecution Of this cam
paign of isolation and determination
lies in the danger that there may DO
concealed sources of infection. AL
though the farmer receives the ap-
praised value of his herd, It is in
evitable that the summary slaughter
OF all his stock should cause him con-

follows:
"'To my son Thomas if he is asso-

yards before they themselves revealed
any symptoms of the disease. Once
this had taken place, every shipment
Of stock from Chicago to other parts
of the country was likely to spread
the infection. For this reason fed
eral inspectors have for some time
now been engaged in tracing, by the
aid of bills of lading and other rail-
road records, each of these shipments
to it's destination and inspecting the
stock there. This accounts for the
discovery of cases in states as far re-
moved from each other as Iowa and
Massachusetts. The various quaran-
tines already imposed have been de-
signed to prevent the continued move
ment of cattle from infected or sus-
picious places. Once these move
ments have been halted and all the
exposed cattle brought to a standstill,
1t will be possible for the federal au-
thorities to locate all suspicious cases
and by the slaughter of all exposed
