This is to be found in the fact
that when sugar is to be had In
such unlimited quantities, it
furnishes an agreeable and well
nigh irresistible temptation to
take more of this carbohydrate
food into our stomachs than our
systems really need.
The English woman has found
that the dearth in sugar may be
blessing in disguise, because,
before the war many of them
paid large sums to specialists to
make them thin. And they very
nearly wore themselves out af-
terward with exercises, or drank
quarts of nauseating waters in
the hope of reducing their too
solid flesh. With joy that even
the horrors of war fail to ovsr-
shadow completely, they find
themselves growing thin and
propcrtionately graceful, yet
without any serious loss of en-
ergy. They declare that the
shortage of sugar is undoubted-
ly the cause of this greatly to be
desired reduction Of avoirdu-
pois.
Scientists and food experts
have told us for years that we
are eating too much sugar; in
fact, the consumption of sugar
is increasing everywhere at an
alarming rate. So it is as well
that halt should be called, Of
course, it must not be forgotten
that sugar is, in way, a neces-
sity for children to aid in their
proper growth and development !;
but an adult who has already
attained his full growth stands
in little actual need of sugar, as
food.

of great exertion or e1hausting
labor. numerous tests of tina
value of sugar indicate that the
rapidity with which sugar is
assimilated gives it certain in
disputable advantages over any
starches and fats. For this rea-
son sugar is an essential for our
marching troops, and every ef-
fort should be made to see that
they have all that is needed
When sufficient time can be al

alton. sugar has no advantage

Sugar has become such 8
staple article of food, and one
that is so indispensable to our
tables, that it is difficult to
realize it has been in common
use in this country only few
generations. The art of manu-
featuring it from sugar cane,
sorghum, cornstalks, and from
the beet, the turnip, carrot and
sweet potato was practically
unheard of one hundred and
twenty five years ago. OF
course, sugar made from sugar
cane was probably known in
China some two thousand years
ago, but the making sugar in
the United States dates only
from 1851.
Accordingly, if our early
forefathers were able to get
along without sugar, surely we
can face a sugarless future
without a shudder, especially
when we know that at the most
it will be only a temporary de-
privation and that there is al
ways some substitute that can
take its place, provided we are
willing to make the necessary
effort to find it.

True, hot cakes and maple

maple sugar has been widely

for the absence of our usual ra-

doubly fortunate is that house
keeper who is able to secure an
abundance Of delicious honey
pillaged from the fragrant
flowers by the bees, for then the
absence of sugar will scarcely
be noted. At any rate, it is well
for us to remember that before
sugar became such common
commercial product, honey was
very generally used TO sweeten
food. And honey is still highly
priced as wholesome sweet
food, to be used alone or with
other foods. A scientific analy-
sis of honey shows that it con-
tains about 81 per cent each Of
dextrose and levulose, and even
as high as 6 to 8 per cent of
sucrose. These three are valu-
able ingredients of the so-called

ERIOUS apprehension is
-. felt in many households
to-day because Of the
threatened sugar shortage that
is confronting Us. If we are
forced to eliminate sugar from
our dietary, what will be the re-
.sultf
Of course, we all know that
sugar furnishes considerable
part Of the heat and muscular
power of the body and that it
supplies one of our most neces-
sary food constituents, namely.
the valuable carbohydrates.
which are so called because they
contain the element carbon in
chemical combination. with oxy-
gen and hydrogen. But when in
addition. sugar is considered
the equivalent of starch that has
been digested and made ready
for absorption in the system, it
is only natural that we should
be prone to overestimate its ac-
tual food value in the produc-
ton of heat and muscular
energy.
On the other hand. how many
of us realize that sugar consti-
tutes, in reality, just 5.4 per
cent of the average diet. or that
it furnishes but us per cent of
the total energy generated by
it, Therefore, while sugar, or
any food that will serve the
same purpose, is Of great i'm
portance, its chief value lies not
alone in the amount Of energy
furnished, but depends largely
upon it's judicious use and com.
bination with other foods.
Without sugar ohr morning
cup Of coffee would lose its ap
petizing flavor very quickly.
And while plenty of cream on
the oatmeal is all very well, SO
far as it goes, for most Of us,
this would not prove popular
breakfast dish without the
sweetening qualities Of sugar.

SWEET CLOVER CROP
ASSISTS FERTILITY
Yields Larger Amount Of Hay and
Improves Condition of Soil
Aid to Drainage.

Besides yielding a larger crop of
hay than other legumes, sweet clover
improves the condition of the soil and
increases its fertility. For these rea-
sons 1t may become valuable acquisl-
ton.
Observations made by the Ohio ex-
pertinent station show that the main
roots of this crop often extend nearly
three feet below the surface, thus
breaking up the soil and aiding in
drainage. especially of heavy clay
soils. These studies indicate that
more of this crop than ordinary red
clover lived through the drought of
1916.
Large amounts of organic matter
may be added if sweet clover is plow-
ed down even eight months after seed
ing. Because 1t is leguminous crop,
store of nitrogen may also be added
when It is given a place in the crop
ping system.

Mr.. Mann suggested an American
