Shortage Of the sugar supply of the
country has led the Food Administers
tor to consider the recommendation
of cutting out the use of sugar in pies
and buildings, for at least one day in
a week, and perhaps during the period
Of the war, to allow for its use for
more necessary purposes, This in
addition to the meatless, wheat1ess,
and fatless days already recommended
will bring more foreibly to the people

precious to her, it is not financially worth
while.
In war time that, Of course, is not consid-
cred. In peace it ought not to be considered
either.
By contributing to the public welfare we
find in the long run that we subserve our own,
and when once the habit is established it will
be very little trouble to keep our waste paper
materials in proper condition and see that they
get into proper hands.
Every scrap Of waste fabric, rope or paper
is of value. Clean white cotton rags are the
most valuable, but every species of rag, no
matter how old or soiled, can be utilized Even
our old black stockings return to US in the
form of roofing paper and are highly valued
by the manufacturers of this material And
there is going TO be a tremendous demand
for roofing paper after the war, because of the
wholesale destruction of buildings for which
it has been responsible. Woollen rags that
are not good enough for remanufacture are
used for the same purpose.
Old books and magazines can be remanu-
featured into book paper of excellent quality.

gin forests of a new continent to draw upon
it seemed as if we had at last found an in
exhaustible source of supply.
Therefore we used and wasted paper-as
we used and wasted food-recklessly. The
family rag bag, on which the paper industry
of the country had previously rested, disap-
peared. Rags were still needed for the manu-
facture of writing paper, but we imported
them. Although Europe found it worth while
TO save her old papers and send them to us, we
thought it too much trouble to save our own.
Meantime we were cutting down our forests
for paper about three times as fast as they
grew and were daily becoming more and more
dependent upon Canada and other countries
for wood pulp-as the prepared cellulose is
called-while paper chemists secured the earth
assiduously but in vain for new sources of
fibre. Many other plants will produce per-
fectly satisfactory paper, but they will not do
il as cheaply as the tree.
1t is true that we still have vast reserves Of
pulp wood in the national forests-in the West
and in Alaska-and that if properly used they
will supply our needs for all time. But if they

are used in the reckless way that destroyed
the Eastern forests they will not prove mex
haustible Neither will they help US in the
present emergency, because they are not near
enough to existing mills, and, without taking
other complications into account, a paper mill
cannot be built in day.
Proper use depends not only on economical
cutting and scientific reforestation, but on the
saving of other paper materials.
The latter precaution means saving the for
ests just as truly if we had snatched the
axe from the hand of the woodman, and the
saving of these materials rests very largely
with the housewife.
She can, if she will, add millions to the
wealth of the country, aid substantially in fur
nishing materials for munitions of war; and
help 70 change our present very dangerous
condition of dependence upon other countries
for a substance intimately associated with our
whole economic life.

it to his financial advantage to save his waste

AS a nation we have been recklessly extrava-
CANT in our use of paper and our waste of
paper materials. If, as the result Of these
distressful days, we succeed in acquiring more
frugal habits, they will not have been alto
gether in vain.
Most of US have been in the habit of think
ing of this indispensable and ubiquitous ma
terial as something that happens of its own
accord, like air or water But, as matter Of
fact, it is only within the memory Of persons
not yet very old that it has been possible to
speak of "scrap of paper" as the most trifing
Of human products And long before the war
this brief abundance was rapidly coming to
an end.
When cotton and linen were the only fbres
from which paper could be made it was al
ways scarce. II was no uncommon thing for

When we learned how TO separate the fbres

we began, for the first time in the worlds his

the habit Of using the graduated sugar, even
for canning. 1t is a soft, white sugar that is
always made from sugar cane. II is more
easily dgested than sugar made from beets
and is highly recommended by dietitans every
where. 1t has the added advantage of being
about half cent cheaper on the usual market
than the graduated sugar.

States the Mexican maid has learned to use
one of these little mills, and makes many fine
dishes of home ground cornmeal that it might
be well for our tables to become familiar with.
"Old-fashioned cornmeal was ground from
the whole kernel of corn. Nowadays part of
the gluten is removed from the meal and used
for other purposes. Thus we are robbed of part
of the nutritive value of the grain. Try grind
ing it yourself and tell me if you don't find it
the best ever.
"If you have little spare space in your gar
den this year, plant it with field corn. This
costs only 20 cents quart in our town stores.

"Most of you men have some ground around
YOUR homes We have several acres of ground
here used by the factory ball nine. We are
ready to plough this ball ground up and let
the fellows who have no gardens use it if they
will grow potatoes.
Here is the proposition: will give every
man who will enter this contest one peck of the
best-ever potatoes raised on my own farm.
Each man is to plant and care for his pota-
toes under the best conditions he can give them.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-06-17

The man who gets the most potatoes from his
peck will receive prize of 49,"
Sixty-fve men were soon enrolled for the
potato contest.
"Now, boys" continued the manufacturer,
I'VE will ask the other factories in town to join
this contest. Our sixty-fve men can pick out
nine of their number, to be called our potato
nine,' to contest with potato mines from the
other factories for the glory and honor of the
respective shops. Some suitable reward can
be arranged by committee. In times of
peace our ball nine has held its own. Let our
potato nine not fall behind" (Cheers.)
"Can the women help?' asked one of the
wives anxiously.
Certainly" answered the speaker. "They
can kill potato bugs"
How many potatoes can be grown from

in her eye.

THE CANNING GARDEN
GOOD will probably be higher next winter
than it is now. Men who are large growers of
any one crop are afraid to plant on a more
extensive plan than usual. Wages are high
for farmhands, and selling conditions are un-
certain There is almost sure to be shortage
if we ship to Europe half that those starving
millions need. We can help this world short
age, this frightful condition Of want, by help
ing ourselves and avoiding the necessity of
making demand on the general market for
our food. We can raise almost all the vege-
tables and fruit we will need this winter.
From May until November every person
who lives where he has back yard can raise
asparagus, lettuce, radishes and other garden
crops in season for his daily needs. The can
ming garden is for the future.

"Mix the dry ingredients, add the water,
stir well. Put into creased tins. Set IN
kettle over little water. Steam one hour
without uncovering. Remove to oven and bake
three-quarters of an hour This will make

cents.

way has been successfully made from start &c

cause the secretary of our company did 1t, and
her husband is here to testify that it was
mighty good.
$50 here's the proposition: We will keep
the whole wheat berry in the store for sale
at the market price Of wheat. Milling this
wheat doubles its cost to you. You can mill
it yourselves in your own homes and get your
bread at half price, whatever the market price
is. You will have clean, wholesome flour with
the whole nourishment of the grain IN the
bread.
"If YOU set the mill so it will just crack the
grain, instead of grinding it, you can produce
a breakfast food that is unsurpassed in nour-
ishment and flavor.
Zone cup of this cracked grain should be
cooked in quart of water for from twelve
to twenty-four hours on the back of the stove
in double boiler, or, better yet, in fireless
cooker. Every woman should learn to use a
fireless cooker and save heat and food values,
which are wasted by cooking on the top of
the stove.
Zone thing to be remembered is that whole
wheat -four spoils sooner than white -four. You
can always have it fresh if you grind what
YOU need each week. In cooking with the
whole wheat flour the bread is apt to sour SOON
err than that made with white -four. 1t must
be hurried along to the oven by letting it rise
quickly in temperature of from so to 50 de-
grees.
whole wheat can be used for gingerbread,
pie crust or any simple fruit cake. One man
who knows says that whole wheat can be used
in place of white -four for any sort of pastry
that is fit to eat.
