LIKE PROHIBITION.

The Gothenburg Independent, q
weekly paper published in Nebraska,
wrote to the editor of the Denver Bull
letin Official organ of union labor in
COlorado) asking about the effect of
prohibition as it affects the working
people of that state. The following
reply was received:
The law in nine months has work
ed wonderful revolution for good;
and at least 70 per cent of the union
voters who were against the amend
ment would support it now. The wage
earners have ceased to spend their
money for booze, and are buying bread
and clothing for their families. l
would say on the whole the condition
of Colorado working people is ut least
80 per cent better as a result of state
wide prohibition, and the city of Den
All the storerOOms vacated by saloons
are now occupied by legitimate enter
prises, and the citizens only wonder
why they tolerated the booze joints as
long as they did. The increase in saw
ings deposits has been remarkable,
and merchants report collections from
40 to 60 per cent better.

fifty dollars a month In liquor adver-

NOT ENOUGH PRISONERS!

Two of the questions which are vex.
ing the minds Of residents of Birming-
ham, Ala, are what to do with the
handsome new 100000 prison which
after II months Of prohibition is prac.
tically empty, and how to keep the city
streets clean when the number OF
prisoners has fallen off so materially
that there are not nearly enough men
to do this work. The larger number
Of arrests now are for speeding and
illegal sale of alcohol. The arrests for
speeding are not due to joy riding, but
to the increased number of >automo
biles, another evidence of the city's
prosperity under prohibition.

SUCCESSFUL AS A HAY CROP
Acreage Now Planted In Middle and
Southwestern States Is Large
New African Varieties.

Sudan grass. introduced by the de-
partment of agriculture and first dis
tributed In 1872, has proved remark
ably successful as hay crop In the
Middle and Southwestern states, and
the acreage now planted is very large.
Numerous related varieties have now
been secured from Africa and are be-
ing tested, especially the dwarf va
rleties, with larger grain that may be
harvested like oats.

fFrom the United States Department of
Agr!culture)
Few agricultural products can be
utilized in such a great variety of ways
as the soy bean. The whole beans may
| be utilized for food as are the seeds of
other legumes, or the oil alone may be
consumed. The oil resembles that of
| cotton seed in many ways, but Is of a
! more pronounced drying character. In
| addition to its availability as II food,
soy-bean oil has found important uses
in the markets of the world for making
paints, varnishes soaps, rubber substl-
tutes, linOleum, waterproof goods and
lubricants. 1t is also used in the OrieHt
for lighting and in the manufacture OF
printing ink
In Japan the soy bean forms one of
the most important articles of food in
use. 1t Is one of the principal ingredi
ents in the manufacture of shOyu (sOy
sauce) misc (bean cheese), tOfu (bean
curd), and natto Steamed beans). The
beans are eaten also as Il vegetable and
in soups; sometimes they are picked
green, boiled and served cold with soy
sauce, and sometimes as salad. A
vegetable milk" is also produced from
the soy bean, forming the basis for the
manufacture OF the different kinds of
vegetable cheese. This milk is used
fresh, and form of condensed milk Is
manufactured from it, All of these
fOodstuffs are used daily In japanese
homes and for the poorer classes are
the principal source of protein.
Used In "Diabetic" Foods.
The use Of the meal remaining after
the oil is extracted from soy beans has
become an important factor in several
European countries during the last few
years, and to some extent in America, J,
as food of low starch content. Soy
beans contain at the most but slight |
trace of starch, and extensive expert |
ments in America and Europe indicate |
the value of the bean and it's products |
as the basis of foods for persons re- |
quiring a low starch diet. SOy-bean
flour enters largely as constituent in
many Of the sO-called diabetic breads,
biscuits and crackers manufactured as
food speclalties. The flour or meal can
be used successfully in the household
us constituent of mullins, bread and
biscuits in much the way in which
cornmeal is used
Soy-Bean Milk.
An artificial milk like that manufac-
tured in the Orient has been produced
IN small quantities in the United States,
and recently Il factory has been
equipped to make this product. Such
milk can be used for cooking in the
and by bakers, confectioners
and chocolate manufacturers. If, how
ever, the milk from the soy bean Is

such products should indicate that the

In addition to its use for -four and

Soldier Boys In the
Trenches Are Anxious
To Get Some Tobacco

If you have any friends who are do
ing war duty in Europe and you wish to
send them something that will be ap-
preciated, send tobacco. During the past
two weeks dozens of letters have come
to Seattle people from young men in
the European trenches who say that
there is Regular tobacco famine on the
other side and that it is almost impos-
sible for a soldier to get tobacco which
is possible to smoke unless it comes from
the United States. One well known Sc
attic man, who for years was engaged
in active newspaper work in this city
and who is now at the front as an en-
gineer, writes that nothing in the ma
ture of remembrance from this side
would be so much appreciated as to-
baceo. The only time, he writes, "that
I have tobacco that 1 can smoke is
when I get a package from home. If
you want to make the boys over here
happy, send tobacco, and after that
send more tobacco.
For every 25 cents left at The Capital
journal office package of smikes"
will be sent to France.
