PLANNING The MEAL.
Balanced Rations an Important Factor
In Home Economics.

Balanced Rations an Important Factor
In Home Economics.
ooh, dear This eternal planning
and contrivipg, from meal to meal,
over what to serve next"
A common enough exclamation, sure
ly, and one familiar to the family man,
who too often considers wife's work
more or less of a sinecure and wonders
why she frets so easily over trihes.
Just throwing things together in
bulk. regardless of the foods effect on
the general health and efficiency Of
those who must eat 1t, Is a wasteful
and even a dangerous process.
Nowadays the thoughtful housewife
"balances rations" as skillfully and
carefully as does the careful stock
feeder. She feels that what is good
for beasts of the field is surely worth
applying to man.
A few hints on balancing rations from
the home economics department, Col
Iege Of Agriculture, University of Wis
consin, follow:
Fat, protein and carbohydrates
should be distributed through the day
so that no meal will contain an ex-
cessive amount of any one foodstuff.
Don't serve two or more foods rich
in the same foodstuff at one meal
For example, macaroni and cheese
with meat, rice and potatoes.
Don't serve the same food in the
same form twice in the same day ex-
cept with such staples as bread butter
and milk. Never serve such a combi-
nation as tomato soup and tomato sal
ad, or creamed peas and cream Of pea
soup in the same meal.
Work for flavor contrasts between
different courses Of q meal. Seek to
have pleasing combinations Of flavor
color and form in each course.
Plan to serve fruit or vegetable at
each meal. A mixed diet of vegetable
and animal food is safest and best.

EQUATORIAL ECUADOR.
A Land of Earthquakes Nearly All
Mia Above Sea Level.


The traveller arrives in Guayaquil
laden with quinine pills, but he learns
that in journey of day he can reach
the temperate zone. He brings sum-
mer clothing for a country crossed by
the equator and nearly perishes on
the frozen slopes of high mountains.
He finds a government as unstable as
the volcano shaken soil. He notes i'm
portant industries that thrive upon
these turbulent shores. Ecuador is a
land of contradictions.
1t Is the land where the Incas ruled
after they came into Peru. 1t was the
birthplace of Atahualpa, who fell be-
fore Pizarro. 1t was from his capital
at Quineto along the mountains that
Gonzalo Pizarro rode out with Orel-
lana to discover the Amazon.
The land which bears the name of
the equator rivals her sister republics
in variety of scenery and climate. Her
feet rest on the dazzling chrome green
shore of tropic river; her head wears
the feecy crown of eternal SHOWS.
With one hand she points to the wide
Pacific; with the other. to the matted
Jungle of the Amazonian valley. Colon
bia, Brazil and Peru are her neigh
bors, but who can say where the ter
ritory of the one actually begins and
the other ends? Two-thirds of the peo-
pie of Ecuador are Indians, pure and
simple. Nine-tenths of the population
live mile above the sea. Her territory
Is three times as large as Pennsylvania.
Her domain is practically unexplored,
but commercially she Is forging ahead

PARIS AND BERLIN.
Both Know What II lie TO See Foreign
Armies Within Their Gates.

Armies Wltnin noiF 0hheos
Paris has had severe experiences in
the way of surrenders to invading
armies. On March 81 1914, the allied
armies that had hemmed in Napoleon
entered the French capital and oc-
cupied it with force Of 100000 troops.
After Napoleon's escape from Elba and
his defeat at Waterloo the armies Of
the allies again entered Paris July Z,
1915. Thus the great city had to sur
.ender to its enemies twice within
sixteen months. Fifty-five years later
Jan. IS, 1S71-the city surrendered
again, this time to the victors in the
Franco German war, after brisk bonn
0ardment.
Berlin has seen foreign troops enter
I'll. gates no fewer than three times in
the last 200 years. The first time
curlously enough. the conquerors were
Austrian troops under General Had
dick. who entered Berlin in 1851, when
Frederick the Great was engaged in
fighting the French on the Rhine. Dur
ing their stay the Austrians imposed a
fine of 10000 on the city, as well as
communicating huge quantity Of pro-
visions and equipment for their troops.
It was only just over three years
later when both the Russian and Aus
trian troops, then allies of one another,
entered Berlin. This time the city was
fined 100000.
The time that will be best remem.
bered, however, was the entry Of Ma
poleon into Berlin after the victory of
Jena. Napoleon inflicted very heavy
fine on the Germans and forced them
TO feed his troops Tit-Bits.

SALMON DAY AT
FRISCO EXPOSITION
Over Thirty thousand Visited the State
Building in One Day

Washington State forged to the front
again last Week at the Panama-Pacific
International Exposition in the contest
for prominence among the participant
ing states, when it drew more than
thirty thousand people in one day to
its state building and fed every one Of
the thirty thousand with a taste Of
Washington canned salmon, crackers
and a glass Of cider.
The occasion for the festivities was
the celebration of Salmon Day, and
through neat souvenirs, through NOV
ing pictures, through speeches, and
last but not least, through taste of
the delicious food itself, the greatness
OF this one of the chief industries of
the State Of Washington was presented
to the throngs.
It was beyond doubt the largest at
tendance any individual state or nation
has had since the opening of the ex
position and it took an entire regiment
of CARDS of the exposition to prevent a
congestion in front and in the build
ing. More than 5000 sealed cans
were provided for distribution and
nearly as many more were opened to
give a quick snack to the hungry.
When the siege of the building was
lifted along about five o'clock in the
afternoon there was not so much as the
odor of salmon left to tell the tale of
the slaughter.
The fish was served through bevy
OF washington girls who were dressed
for the occasion to look like mermaids.
If every scale of their costumes had
been an arm they could not have
served the salmon quickly enough to
satisfy the demand.
The salmon served were all fur
nished free TO the state by the pack
ers' association, who thus cooperated
with the Washington State Commits
sion in advertising the salmon as nu-
tritious food product.
During the afternoon one OF the ex-
position bands of fifty pieces played
in the balcony Of thy building. The
band was contributed by the exposi-
ton itself and was one of the big fea-
lures of the day. 1t was and will be
perhaps the only time in the history OF
the exposition that state will be given
the use of a band in its building, but
the officials of the exposition saw from
the advance preparations that Wash
ingion Salmon Day would be the draw
ing card for thousands and desired to
reap with the state its glories.
The San Francisco newspapers, rec
ognizing the features of the celebra-
ton, devoted columns Of space to Civ
ing an account of the festivities, es-
pecially pictures Of the mermaids serv-
ing the salmon and the cider were in
great demand.

Governor Lister endorsed the public
utilities regulation measure framed by
the public service commission. The
act establishes state monopoly in
public service operation for companies
now in the field, with the commission
at the head Of it. Where an electric
light plant is in operation neither the
city it serves nor another private corpo-
ration desiring to compete for the bus
mess can build a second plant there
unless the public service commission,
after hearing, decides that excessive
rates charged by the first company, or
the poor character Of its service, iusti-
fies admittance of an opposing plant;
in other words, grants the proposed
competitor a certificate or necessity
and convenience.

Ruling by Attorney General w. V.
Tanner that appropriations Of the last
Legislature totaling several millions oil
dollars, are subject to referendum and
will not become available until June 10
has paved the way for new test of the
emergency clause question in the SUI
preme court.
Governor Lister contends that these
appropriations are for the support oil
the state government and that the terms
of the appropriation acts prevail, max
ing the money available for expendi-
ture Immediately after April l.
The principal classes of appropria-
tions in regard to which the court will
be asked to rule are the appropriations
for highway construction work, total
ing about $1,000, 900; appropriations
for the construction of new buildings
at state institutions, and lump sum"
appropriations in which appropriations
for maintenance and Improvements are
consolidated. Attorney General Tan
ner holds in this connection that since
the amounts are consolidated the en-
tire item is subject to referendum, al
though contending that an ordinary APP
preparation for maintenance purposes
is not subject to referendum.
