eruptions and limitations which SO often
make life miserable for little folks:

Its ingredients are pure and utterly
wholesome, with no trace of free

which many soap-makers find too

INCREASING THE FRUIT CROP.

a recent bulletin of the department
Of agriculture calls attention to the
enormous saving that may be effected
in the fruit industry by a simple eX-
pedient.
All fruit growers suffer big losses at
times because of the fruit spelling be-
fore il can be got TO market. This
trouble is especially pronounced in
the case of such perishable products
az strawberries and peaches. 1t is es-
timated that about One-fourth Of all
the fruit produced in the United States
goes 10 waste.
The departments suggestion is
simply this-that whenever fruit is in
imminent danger of spelling it should
be utilized for making jelly, preserves
or crushed fruit fiavors for soda foun-
tains. etc. and that the arst step Of
the process be taken right on the spot.
All that is necessary is to mix
sugar with the fruit and then put in
cold storage. The strawberries. cher
ries or whatever they are should first
be washed in cold water. then put in
tight barrels with about an equal
weight of sugar. IF the fruit is in
good condition when it is placed n
cold storage" says the agricultural
department. at can be kept for a long
time without to any extent losing its

and retail merchants who find the

one Of the revelations OF the pres

Everyone who has studied the al

drunkenness.
In Sheffield, says an American cor
respondent. the situation has been bet
ter than elsewhere. More effective
work has been got out Of the men.
Many of them have worked eighty or
ninety hours a week and some even
as much as 120 hours a week. but they
have all had one day off in seven.
Those held TO a seven days-a- week
schedule are found almost invariably
TO drink more ana produce less.
It's the old truth which the Israel
