and quite extensive. revision OF its
passenger train schedules. The final
details are now being worked out and
Will be announced TO the public
promptly upon completion.
The company will attempt two
things: First. to increase immediate
ly the movement OF such freight as
foodstuffs and other necessaries OF
life; second. 70 clear our lines for the
prompt handling Of Government sup
plies and troops. which must shortly
be transported on a large scale.
AS the lines. terminals and loco
motives are now being used to the
maximum OF their capacity, the only
way In which we can provide for the
increased government traffic, and for
the freer movement Of perishable and
other necessary freight. is to reduce
the number OF passenger train units
that are being operated over the rail-
road This will release both trackage
and engines for other forms " SER
vice We shall endeavor 70 accom-
plish this purpose In the following
ways.
BY consolidating passenger trains
wherever practicable, thus making
one train unit serve the purpose Of
two or more;
BY the entire elimination. in some
cases, Of trains on which the patron
age is very small
BY reducing the number Of restaur-
ant cars. and in no case operating
more than one car restaurant car on
a train:
BY reducing the number OF parlor
and sleeping cars. and by decreasing
or possibly disappointing, the use Of
club and observation cars
The company expects through these
means. to cut down the movement OF
passenger trains, on its lines east Of
Pittsburgh. by a total Of about 5000
train miles per day
Between New York and Washing
ton an unprecedented amount OF pbs-
senger traffic is now being handled.
With the present number OF passen-
ger trains it IS impossible TO avoid
operating some OF them on the
freight tracks. Each train so operated
monopolizes 80 miles or more OF
freight track during its run. II, by
consolidating two passenger trains,
the company can remove one from the
treieht tracks. the company shall have
gained thar much more line for the
handling OF The foodstuns which are

THE GREAT VALUE
OF BUTTER FAT

The universities and agricultural cx-
pertinent stations have expended a
considerable amount OF effor. and
money in establishing the food and
Of animals.
1t is ali undcniabic fact says H. G.
Butler of the Missoula Creamery. that
nature provides in its own way the
highest form of nutrition known to
science today. 1t has been determined
that purified roodstuffs do not sup
port life. Chemists have tried to get
young animals to grow on rations
which We're made up of mixtures of
carefully purified proteins carbohy-
drates. fats, and salt mixtures from the
chemical laboratory. These salt mix
lures contained all the salts which
would be left as ash when the body was
burned, and include the potassium.
sodium. calcium and magnesium salts
of sulphuric, rhosphoric and hydro
chloric acids. When such rations are
fed the animals not only do not grow.
but they will not live any length of
time.
Now. the essential thing about these
foodstuffs was that they were highly
( purified. If we take such a mixture of
/ foodstuffs which does not support an
| animal, and stir into 1t n small amount
| of egg yolk. say for pound of ration
! an ounce of egg yolk and then feed this
! mixture TO some more animals they
+ will grow satisfactorily
4 The same result would be obtained
| IL an ounce OF dried milk were added
| instead of the egg yolk.

The sooner the United States starts

versity, the better off We shall be.
The use Of war bread Tnade from
whole wheat flour will insure an In
itial saving of 55.00O,00O bushels OF
wheat. It will make for better health
and better teeth and heter bone
structure. For white bread. accord
ing to this noted authority, while
higher in digestibility, Is lower in
really beneficial properties than are
flours made from whole wheat kernels.
"Instead of having poorer bread as
result of war economies" declares
Professor Morgan, 1--WE should have
better bread, bread containing more
nourishment than that which we now
cat, quite as palatable, good for the
teeth and especially good, I believe,
