II has been well said that the apple
holds the same relation 10 other
fruits shat wheat holds In the family
Of cereals. It's area OF production
being the widest. its nourishing
quality the highest. and It's adapta-
bility In preparation the most in
elusive and the most satisfying 10
various tastes. The apple is made
up Of about 50 parts OF water. from
enc TO two parts sugar, and the re-
mainder pure starch, with an infn.
itesimal fraction of volatile oil.
which gives the fruit its fiavor. The
fact that the solid part OF the apple
Is starch indicates why many per.
sons find she uncooked fruit dificult
TO digest, but even confirmed dys
peptics are seldom troubled in tho
least by eating thoroughly cooked
apples.

Nv HONOR TANNING.

CHICAGO, Dec. l6.-rhe federal
postal department has evolved a
plan by which thousands OF turkeys,
ducks and geese that are now cluck'
ing happily and unsuspecungly In
Illinois farm yards may be trans
ported gently and quickly to Chi
cago's Christmas tables.
Several months ago the Chicago
postmaster. d. A. Campbell, sent
circulars to hundreds OF farmers In
Illinois announcing that the post
ONCE was prepared TO carry farm
produce-poultry. eggs. butter, hon
ey, jellies and similar good things
to the city by way OF the parcel
post.
The farmers were asked 10 send
their names and addresses. the ma
ture OF their products and the price
a them TO the Chicago postoftice.
These lists were distributed by let
ter carriers to- hundreds OF people
in Chicago
The city folks sent orders by mail
to the farmers and soon the parcel
post was busy carrying country
things" from the farm 10 the fiat.
But they will be buster still Wien
Christmas shopping for the Christ
mas dinners begin. Chicago house
wives have learned TO appreciate
the flavor OF fresh. farm'bred tur-
key and the postal authorities antic'
ipate record-breaking shopping
trade in the parcel post department.
Buying Christmas dinner by
mail is the simplest thing in the
world" says Supt. Of Mails Downey.
-"Fhe postefiiee- complies s-the list OF
farmers who have poultry and such
things to sell; We distribute the
list 10 the housewives-that Is the
consumers; the housewives send
their orders to the farmers. the par
eel post delivers the goods. Our
mail carriers will deliver thousands
OF turkeys in Chicago during Christ
mas week
Now that the parcel post makes
it so easy to send a turkey in the
mail there Is no reason why city
folks shouldn't send each other tur-
keys as holiday gifts-Uncle Sam
can carry turkey as we'll as Christ
mas cards"
