In Europe and other parts of the old
 world people of ample means can and
 do use less fuel in a season than Vt waste here in the same length of time
 All wood is conserved there, even to the smallest twigs, gathered and sold In bundles and husbanded in proportion to it's value and scarcity In the City Of Mexico, and. in fact, through all of the cities of that country, one of the
 most familiar sights are the trains of
 buiros loaded with such high bundles of faggots or sacks of charcoal that they look like animated bundles of sucks and burlap, without distinguish = Ing marks excepting four little legs and two long ears, that herald their coming with praying which to my unaccus-
 toned ears. could be compared only to the famous ''whangdoodle" whistle with which some of the large manufactur- ing plants in the east call their men to
 work.
 Now these conditions which are I part of common everyoay living in oth- CT and less favored countries must be recognized by the householders of Uncle Sans domain and put into prac- tice as an essential economy at the present time. As it will not be d case of having or not having money to pur- chase wood and coal, but the imDoss- ibilitv of obtaining it, even at advanced and eXorbitant prices. as the growing lack of transportation facilities will make II impossible to bring in anything like our usual supply.
 The housewife who realizes these conditions in time will be able 10 fol- low the example of the thrifty ant and VIII store up such bits of fuel through the summer as will piece out wonder luily toward marmins up the rooms on a Inl fpff.y aisl.r and, 1T we can reduce this to q system. ny daily practice, and so keep it con stantly in mind, il will assist us to re- member other and perhaps more i'm portant economies. Save all packing noNeS that drift in through your pllr- chasing from the stores in large amounts; also all gurny sacks Have the children break up all Of the loose stuff Into useable lengths and have the children pack il into the sacks or whole boxes. This will serve to keep down the yard litter and have your light fuel convenient when needed. All trim mingS from trees and shrubs Should also be broken and packed or tied into bundles and neatly piled Heretofore they have been stacked in the alleys or. streets for the city wagons to haul away And then the papers, my. how they do accumulate, especially through the summer months
 To be sure, the paper bags that your groceries come in. (and the grocer paws 5o per cent more for them than he did T year ago. can be used to wrap vour Jars ol frult, to keep it dark and pre- vent discoloration, and the clean wlap- plhg papers are usually used about The Kitchen as they are great labor savers ana also reduce the laundry bills. BIlt what Of other waste papers and the e1 cess newspapers? Don't sfnuggle them tHto the garbage can or burn them either m the useful w:re incinerator or Tn q loose pile from whence the ashps fly about the streets and alleys For tneir blackened cinders plani anvtninp put seeds Of Kindness in the thoughts Of your neighbors.

When dry, pack them away In boxes. You will be surprised at the amount of heat they send out ana the length Of time ewo or three of these paper stocks last. and they arc hnexceiled for kindling
 lhese suggestions may seem like very small economies, but like the small
