EGGLESS CAKE NEW
 SAVER FIJI. FAMILY

The prestige of the hen is being cur tailed in a new and interesting way.
 She lays a billion eggs or so for the human race each year, and, under world war conditions, the price of eggs per dozen to consumers had 2Dpr"ncl'e~' q dollar in some parts of the United States, and has reached the prollbl- tive price of two dollars OF mo in the belIigerent countries.
 Therefore when the high cost of l N- ing looms large in the public eye, un- usual importance is attached to the announcement of the best known bak- ing powder company in the world that it has evolved a ready and practical way for the housewife to save, in the aggregate, many millions of dollars in household expenses through the use of moro Royal Baking Powder and less eggs.
 Months of experimenting have elicited d large number of recipes for the making of homo baked products with fewer egSs and these recipes are being distributed gratis. It is claimed that they prove conclusively that the baking powder saves eggs-in some cakes about half the cost of the cake is saved. III recipes calling for the use of eggs, the number can be reduced and excellent results-healthfuI, appe- ,izing cakes, muffins. corn bread. etc. obtamed by using q small additional

 The work of laying out Q garden has been SO much simplified during the past few years that gardening is now something which even the most ineN perenced can carry out with an as iUrance of success.

Instead of planting seeds one at time, as we did few years ago. we can now plant whole row at q time The new way is to plant a strip of seeds instead of q handful of seeds.

BACK YARD GARDEN
 CUTS COST OF FOOD

During the past three years of con- tinUally rising food prices, While con- gressional committees and grand jurieS have been busying themselves from one end of the land to the other in the eff fort to place their fingers upon the causes of the ever increasing ad- vances in living costs. one of the possi- ble remedies has been at our very doors" said an expert recently.
 When we consider that one of our main articles of food -Vegetahles-h has risen in price from sixteen to sixty five per cent during the past few years-we begin to realize the possi- hi; ies for economy which lie in the cultivation of our, for the most part, unused back yard garden plots. It really takes only a very small space of ground to grow enough vegetables to supply the average family, not alone for daily table use during the summer, but also for use during the winter months when prices g0 So nigh as to be almost prohibitivc
 The importance of the back yard as q garden has been emphasized in Prus- sia since the war. The cultivation of every available spot of ground was made mandatory and the increased production thereby proved an import ant factor in GernaEy's successful en- deavor to feed herself
 The value of back yard gardening in this county was emphasized by the unique Pingree potato patch plan.
 Tn brief, the plan was to utilize, for gardening purposes, back yards va cant lots scattered about the city of Detroit and the iarge stretches of un- occupied lands in the suburbs Per mission was obtained from the own CTS of the land to allow men who were out of employment toturn this vacant property to cultivation and thereby ac- complish q two-fold object give the idle laborers something with which to busy themselves, and. at the same time furnish them with a means of provid-

moved to Heselton Hall. where
preaching was also held at intervals.
Rev Mr. Munson afterwards became
somewhat noted as a politician. but
still remained in the ministry. He
is no longer living.
Rev. l. ]. Mead was another labor
er in the cause who did much for
Universalism in the town of Show
hogan. He was State Superintend-
ent and was scheduled to speak here
on a Sabbath Day. Plans lad bceh
made for the service in the Town
Hall, but a night or two prior to
the occurrence of the event, Skowhe-
gan was visited by fire and Hesel-
ton Hall was in the wake Of the
flames. The Universalist people at
once began to bestir themselves 10
find another place in which to wor-
ship, but none was obtainable, so the
story goes. and as a consequence the
service was finally held in the grove
on the Island where political meet
ings were often held. 1t will be re-
membered that in earlier days. there
was not the equality in religious
faiths that there is today and this in
measure may have been largely re-
sponsible for the necessity of holding
the Universalist service out of doors.
Rev Mr. Mead decided that he was
needed longer in the community, and
with his decision to abide with the
struggling believers in Gods uncon-
dtional grace and mercy came the
hope to build a church In the mean
time Coburn Hall was again hired
for the regular services and Parson
Mead with his earnest followers la
bored diligently for their house of

Work of Ways and Means Society

Our statement last week concern
ing the work of clearing off the debt
from the First Baptist Church was
partially incorrect. inasmuch as the
work is not in charge of Deacon
George Thomson and his daughter,
Miss Carrie Thomson as stated in our
last issue. 1t is true that the debt
of $500 is being paid IF but the work
is being done by the Ways and Means
Society organized in March, 1915. for
this purpose thru the efforts of Mrs.
Louis f. Dow There were fifteen
charter members and a few names
have since been added to the mem
bership list. There have been no
apportionments made among the diff
ferent societies of the church as stat
ed last week but the Ways and Means
Society has received to aid it in it's
work. voluntary contributions of 800
from the Ladies' Aid of the church
and $50 from the Christian Endeavor
society. mere remains Il balance
of $500 to be paid, 500 of which has
been voluntarily pledged by the First
Philathea Glass. The rest will be
raised by the Ways and Means So
ciety by next April it is hoped. After
its work is accomplished the society
will be dsbanded. The officers of
the society are President, Mrs. Louis
+. Dow; vice president, Mrs Thomas
Thomson; secretary, Miss Gertrude
Garter. treasurer, Louis +. Dow.
1t had not been intended to make
any public announcement of the work
of this society but after the statement
made in last weeks local it seems
only fair to the members of the Ways
and Means Society that the foregoing
announcement should be made.
Among the charter members were
Mr. and Mrs. Philo Steward, Mr.. and
Mrs George Thomson, Mr. and Mrs
Thomas Thomson. Mr. and Mrs. Louis

Newspapers Suspending Pub
LEGATION

The phonominal advance III the
price of all kinds of paper, and es-
pecially that upon which newspapers
are printed has caused many country
weeklies and small city dailles to
close up business. There were three
thousand such suspensions for the
first eleven months of 1916. 1t takes
a pretty solid publication enterprise
TO meet the conditions imposed by
trebling the cost of the principal item
(paper) which enters into its bust
ness.
Among latest disturbances OF
this kind in Maine is that OF the
Advertiser at Livermore Falls. THIS
paper has enjoyed a prosperous eX-
istence for more than twenty-five
years but its owner has found no way
to increase his revenue to meet the
increasing cost of production and has
given up the fight.
