VEGETABLES DRIED
BY A NEW PROCESS

An American-inVented process Of pre-
serving vegetables indefinitely in fresh
state without canning or cold storage
has been worked out in laboratories at
Bound Brook, n. J. 1t is a step in ad
vance Of the German method of driving
vegetables. which has been used on a
great scale during the war, to avoid the
cost in labor and material in canning
vegetables and to prevent waste due to
routing in the handling of potatoes and
some other vegetables
The superiority of the American pro
cess is that it does not cook vegetables
IN drying them, and that it holds their
run nutritive strength and flavor The
German process cooks while it dries. so
that the vegetables, twice cooked before
they reach the table are much less
palatable than the fresh.
rood experts say that it is the great
est step in the handling of food since
the Introduction of canning. The work
at the laboratory at Bound Brook has
been carefully watched by government
chemists and students of the food nro-
blem. The bearing Of the process on
the question of feeding the population
of the United States and reducing tho
cost of living rests on two factors
First, it promises to solve the problem
of over-production in dat years when
vegetables and fruit are allowed to ROT
on .the farms because the markets are
over stocked
Food Condensed in Form.
The second factor is lightness and re-
duced bulk This counts much in stor-
age and transportation. The ratio of
FOOD value between the dried and the
original green vegetables is as follows:
Potatoes, l pound to I; cabbage. to
49, onions ] to 13; spinach, to IA:
carrots, | to 10: turnips, / to IL
one pound of dried soup vegetables.
made up OF carrots. turnips. onions.
cabbage. and potatoes, will make fresh
vegetable soup, with all the food value
retained, for seventy persons. and a 100
pound barrel will make 1000 plates of |
soup. The cost of the process is loss
than that of canning. and the expense
Of storage and transportation would he
many times less, especially taking into
the amount of water CON
tanned in the cans
The development of the process has
been carried on Tor five years at the
atAapund Brook by yyaIdron
williams, WEXFORD Brooks. and DR. =
G. WiechmaHs4 THEIR process subjects
the sliced veG fables to comparatively
low temperatdfe in air kept in circuIa-
ton, which gradually draws. out abou,
95 per cent. of the moisture.
The developers of the process gave 20
a reporter for The New York Timo..
dozen boxes containing various s,,ca,
and dried vegetables. Onions SLICED in,a

age stamp were placed in water In Ias.

KILLED WIFE, Then
SET FIRE TO BODY

North Providence. r. l., Jan. Is
Following a quarrel with his wife
Christina, George Walker an aged tool
maker of Allendale, struck her on the
head with an axe, smashing her skull,
and then covered her body with kero-
sene and set fire to it, Miss Louise
Pickett, a young woman who was Wis
lting her uncle on the second floor of
the house on Allen avenue, smelled
smoke and went down to the tenement
OF the Walkers underneath
She found Walker outside the pantry
and holding the door half open Inside
was the body of the woman in flames.
She was driven out of the house
screaming by the man, who threatened
her with bodily injury if she inter-
fered.
Miss Picket gave the alarm and
neighbors answered the call with Dep
uty Chief of Police George p. Willis.
The three room tenement was ablaze,
kerosene having been sprinkled on the
floors, chairs and tables. The flames
We're quickly extinguished and the
charred body of the woman taken out
side.
Arrested After Fight
Walker was arrested by Chief Hill
after lively struggle. The man fought
like a tiger and tore the uniform of the
officer to tatters. Citizens came to the
rescue, however, and Walker was taken
to the Comfortable bridewell, where he
was locked up on the charge of murder

New Machine-Gun Tripod.

Light in weight, free from the effects
Of vibration and permitting of rapid
and free movement of the gun in any
direction a recently perfected type of
machine-gun tripod promises to extend
the field Of the present weapon. This
tripod Is provided with ball and
socket joint head, permitting the gun
to be freely moved in any direction.
To lock the gun lever is given
slight turn. while the gun may be held
at any angle in the clamp in which
1t rests. The new tripod can be read
lily carried about, and it is an ideal
weapon for use in a motor car or mo-
tor boat, and as an anti-aircraft piece.
In fact, 1t lends itself to all the Gus
tomary uses Of the machine gun, with
many new ones besides.-Scientifi

Scientific Bomb. DROPPING,

The Germans have apparently taken
the lead in the scientific phases of
bomb-dropping from airplanes., Ac-
cording to reports from abroad, a re-
Gently captured German plane includ-
ed an elaborate instrument for aiming
the bomb in such way that 1t would
strike any given object on the ground
below. The essential features Of the
device were telescope so adjusted
that it swung always perpendicular to
the ground and prismatic reflector
which brought the country ahead Of
the line Of flight into the field Of
vision. BY the use Of these two in
struments, and by allowing for the al
titude as determined by barometer,
the weight Of the bomb, which fixes
its speed of descent, and the speed Of
the airplane, which could be deter
mined from the speed of the engine
the aviator is enabled to aim and re-
lease his bomb in such a way as to
strike close to any given objective.

CHANGES WROUGHT BY WAR
Thousands Of English Women Com.
PEELED 70 Think ef Home In Which
Man H1a No Par.

War has done strange things Ia
women: 1t has made Of thousands of
them home-makers and home-lovers,
In the days Of peace there was a great
restlessness, craving for club or cor
porate life, but o,t of the coufusions
and descriptions Of war has been born
deep longing for quiet things and
for the solitude Of the home, re-
marks the London Daily Mail.
Clubs and hotels for women were
popular three years ago, especially
those which were run on common
sense lines without annoying rules and
restrictions. Beca Use so many women
must live in Lon ION today, and be-
cause there is so little room for them,
most of these hostels are full. But
they are now unpopular. They are re-
garded as useful stopgaps. In the
heart Of almost every hostel-dweller,
however, there burns a secret desire
for little house of her own, q house
that is utterly unconnected with mar
rage and motherhood.
The dream Of wifehOod that shone
as star for so many girls before the
war has faded away. Happy mating
Is the remotest of possibilities for hun
dreds of thousands Of woman work
ers today. Women have given not only
their husbands but their lovers to the
and so 1t Is that the dream
home Of tomorrow is one In which the
man has no part.

NO APES IN MANS ANCESTRY
Fundamental Differences Between
Them Cannot Be Explained BY Any
Theory Of Evolution.

DR.. NATION NJ. Curtis, professor of
philosophy in Western Reserve uni
versity, protests in a letter to Science
against the assertion, still common In
current scientific literature, that man
is descendant Of the anthropoid apes.
He quotes Professor Duckworth, the
leading authority in this field, who
wrote in his "Morphology and Anthro-
pology":
1--WE must conclude that the existing
anthropoid apes, constituted as they
now are. did not figure in the ancestral
history of man."
And he points cut some Of the fun
damental differences between man and
the apes, differences which defy any
theory Of evolution to explain. Among
these differences are those in the form
of the skulls, the shape of the most
ancient skulls that have been found
being substantially the same as the
shape of the skulls of today.
Professor Curtis pleads that sound
science and sound education be based
upon actual facts and such theories
as grow out Of them, rather than upon
mere speculatiOnS.
