FARMERS PLAN TO CUT COST
OF LIVING-EXPLAIN HOW
That the devious and expensive
channels through which the food
products of America travel from the
producer to the consumer will be
somewhat Strengthened out by the
national conference on marketing
and farm credits, which closed it's
session yesterday, is the opinion of
Sec'y Chas. w. Holman. The confer
ence, in striking vigorous blows in
e behalf Of the producer, also struck
fOr-the consumer, Holman said.
The chief aims of the conference
were to obtain markets; uncontrolled
by forces that keep the price paid the
producer down and that paid by the
consumer up; to eliminate delay and
waste in marketing and to create
conditions that would increase pro-
dUction. All these conditions should,
members of the conference said, tend
to a reduction in the high cost of liv-
ing.
One of the most drastic moves of
the conference was a demand upon
congress that the livestock and pack
ing industries be thoroughly inYesti-
gated by the federal trade commits
sion. The move is directed against
the packers.
Another drive against the high
cost. of living was launched in the
formation of plans for a national fed
Grafton of all milk producers. Its
purpose will be to. produce cheaper
milk for the public by providing more
efficient marketing and limiting the
control of dealers over prices, it's
sponsors said. Collective bargaining
principle will be its chief weapon.

CHI. SURFACE LINES GET SHARE
OF LOAN SHARK COIN
The Chicago Surface lines get
quite a bit of money that victims
pour into the loan sharks. In the
street car lines, particularly those
that operate through the poor dis
tricts, the loan sharks are heavy adj
VeTtiseTs.
Of course, the street car doesn't
gather in as much as does Willie
Randolph Hearst, with his three col
Umns of loan shark ads daily, but
the street car mOgUls get their share.
Some of the sharks advertise their
business as loan" banks. In every
street car there is a notice that every
bank is under government or state
supervision. This proves quite a
boost to the loan shark business.
The city welfare dept yesterday
exposed the secret union between
loan sharks that exists in the city.
The headquarters are in building
at Madison and Dearborn. The mem
bers are known to each other by Sc
cret pass words.

NAVY BUILDERS MAKE RECORD
Dreadnaught Arizona Constructed in
Record Time and at Saving OF
Nearly 100000.

Washington. The superdread-
naught Arizona, which shares with
her sister, the future fleet flagship
PENNSYLVANIA, the honor of being the
greatest and most powerful fighting
ship ever built for the United States
navy, is, with the exception of a rev
minor details, completed and ready
for service, the last rivet having been
driven on the day on which the con-
tract stipulated the Arizona should
be finished. Furthermore, the nav!
ward constructors who built the Arl-
Zona have won the thanks of the navy
department by building the ship at
cost S1,OOOO00 less than independent
shin contractors had estimated.
To Naval Constructor j. K. Bailey

the few Americans in PetrOgrad, with
the aid of a few contributions from
sympathizers in America.
The American Red Cross raised
huge sums" said Mrs. Friede, "and es-
tablished many hospitals in the various
warning countries, but for some unac-
cOuntable reason established only one
hospital in Russia, in Kieff. When
the funds for supporting this hospital
were exhausted instead of appealing
for additional funds to continue its
much-needed work, the hospital was
closed. 1t is doubtful if any charita-
BILE bazaar would be more appropriate
than one to save the name of the
American Red Cross in Russia, for,
while there have been several small
benefits for Russian relief, the amounts
raised have been but drop in the
bucket
"Yet how many people in America
realize that there is only one Ameri-
can hospital in all Russia at the pres
ent time? How many people realize
that the Great White Empire has been
practically neglected by the American
Red CROSSE" asks Mrs. Friede.

COOKING UTENSILS OF GLASS
Baking Dishes Made of New Material
Have Been Found Very Satisfac-
tory and Almost Unbreakable.

A new material now on the market
for cooking utensils is glass. A great
variety of cooking dishes are made,
but the baking dishes or caSseroles,
would probably appeal most to the
home-keeper No silver or copper con-
tainer is required for the casserole
when put on the table and hence they
are comparatively inexpensive.
A great variety of dishes have been
cooked in the glass casserole with
splendid results. The material is
cooked uniformly throughout the dish,
due to the cOnductivitS of glass and
the results have been just as goo0
with a sOufile as with a meat pie.
The oven can be better regulated
since one can see the material cook
ing in the DISH. e. one can see
whether it is cooking too fast or too
slow.
The utensils are attractive and
seem to be almost unbreakable.
The casserole has proved to be the
most satisfactory baking dish we
have ever used.-Magdalene Hahn,

Collins, Colo

TO ECONOMIzE DIGESTION
The Eating Of Vegetables Without
Msstiestion is Productive Of
Gastric Rebellion.

Indigestion is often attributed to
hasty eating, and people are re-
proved and rightly so, for bolting their
food; but 1t is interesting TO observe
that while the bolting OF meat is al
ways severely cenSured, one never
hears any blame attached TO those who
swallow fruit by the mOuthful, and de-
vour uncoOked vegetables without any
attempt at mastcatiOn. Nevertheless,
il is the hasty swallower of vegetable
fiber who is really the inciter of gas
tric rebellion. Vegetables are, at all
times, very imperfectly digested by the
stomach, and require their tough
fibcrS 10 be thoroughly broken up by
the teeth if they are to be dissolved
even in the bowel.
There is a well-bnown saying which
AYERS that digestion waits upon appe-
tite, and there is no doubt that Of nj.
the helps to digestion a keen desire for
food is the most powerful and impor-
tant. But appetite itself often de-
pends upon conditions which are inde-
pendent of the bodys absolute neceSsi-
ties. Thus the aspect OF the food, its
smell, taste and even the manner in
which it is served all help either 10
stimulate a desire for it, or to induce
a sense of aversion, while the environ
ment Of the diner often exercises i'm
portant influence, beneficial or other
wise. Brain work of any kind inter.
fereS with the rapid digestion Of food,
and even the habit of reading during
meal times, practiced by so many, is
conducive neither to appetite nor di-
geStion. A well-lighted room, music and
frivolous conversation will often per-
nit a chronic dyspeptic to enjoy with
out remOrse the pleasures Of the table,
while a depressing atmosphere, uncOn-
genial company and unappetizing
dishes may induce a fit of Indigestion
in the most healthy individual-FOOd

time to time they read about the great
possibilities for American trade IN
Russia after the war, but the fact OF
the matter is that they are not pre-
pairing in any way to capture tIiS
trade. They are not doing anything
in Russia at the preesnt time to make
them remembered when the great
struggle is ended.
ignorance Of Russian Conditions.
ut is this ignorance about RUSSIAN
conditions" says Mrs. Friede, "that
makes relief work there so difficult.
Only a few weeks ago circular was
sent out by a charitable association
composed of several of New YORK $
biggest financiers asking for contribu-
tions for an American hospital in Rus
sia. The circular did not even state
that an American hospital was al
ready in existence in Petrograd."
