In some cases the reductions amount
to A. much as 80 cents ton from ex-

Points east of Pueblo on both the

DIET AND GOOD HEALTH.
Food Should Be Carefully Selected and
Properly Varied.

Food Should Be Carefully Selected and
Properly Varied.
The eminent American psychologist
Lusk says that nature, through the de-
vice of appetite, usually provides
against the use of improper food, but
that reason must play a part in food
selections. A glass of milk and piece
of pie are poor materials for the brain
of an active business man whose seden-
tary life requires $500 heat units or
calories to maintain his body machin-
cry.
We need also water. salts, proteins
and certain newly discovered sub
stances called vitamines. All these
materials are to be found in milk.
beans, bread and other great funda-
mentals Of nutrition. Solutions of cane
sugar or of glucose are not the exclu-
sive mainstays of life. and yet glucose
taken alone yields $500 calories at
cost of 1-6 cents, and $500 calories
in the form of cane sugar cost 8 1-3
cents.
Glucose is the cheapest food fuel
known, but, like cane sugar or butter
fat, is not q complete food in that II
does not contain everything necessary
for life. Commercial glucose is abso-
lutely harmless. A man must have
sufficient calories In his diet IL he Is
to live properly and perform labor sat
isfactorily.-New York World.

Power Of Falling Water.

Still water gives no power, no en-
ergy. Falling water has only as much
power as is represented by its weight
A gallon of falling water will develop
as much power as falling block Of
iron weighing 62.5 pounds. OF course,
the greater the fall the greater the pow
er developed. Water falling one foot
will develop a pressure of .43 pounds
per square inch Of pipe. The same
amount of water falling 100 feet will
develop a pressure of 1881 pounds per
square inch of pipe. Falling 1000 feet
1t would produce pressure of 43a 90
pounds per square inch Of pipe. To
compute the power of falling water 1t
is necessary to multiply the volume of
lowing water in cubic feet per minute
by its weight. 62.5 pounds. and this
product by the vertical height Of the
fall in feet. and divide by $4,000, the
number of foot pounds representing
one horsepower for one minute.-Ne

President Wilson
relterates the contentious of President
Taft, who vetoed an immigration bill
Just before the close of his term, that
the literacy test is fair neither to the
Immigrant nor to the country. While
the United States has held open Its
doors to desirable immigrants, yet
there has been a strong sentiment
that more restrictive methods should
oe adopted. Evidently President
Wilson and his predecessor believe
that all other conditions being
favorable, it is time enough for
immigrants to learn to read and write
the English language after entering
upon their residence In this country.

Eliminating Waste.

There are two ways to eliminate
waste. One is to prevent its occur
renee entirely. The other is to
utilize waste In such way as to
bring profit.
For example, consider the thrifty
Scotch traders. They save things
that other people waste They uti-
liZe the SCOT from their chimneys To
manufacture shoe 5lacking. They
import scraps Of wood from the
Scandinavian sawmills to be used as
fuel. With cork shavings brought
from Spain and Portugal they manu-
facture llnoleum. They ship their
old tin cans 10 the continent where
they are melted into block tin (or at
least they did before the war broke
out The old rags of the world are
brought to Lelth to be converted
into paper. They export old horse
shoes to China where the Mongols
convert them into cutlery and domes

the elimination OF waste Is to lie
