Watch Garbage Pail to See
That Waste Is Prevented

Washington, June 10.-"Have YOUR
city food chemist analyze your city
garbage from week to week and pub
hsh prominently what he finds as an
index of food saving or waste in your
community" is the suggestion the L.
5. Department of Agriculture is max
ing to municipal authorities through
out the country. Where there is no
official chemist, the department points
out local chemists capable of deter
mining percentages of fats, protein.
starch and organic matter wasted in
garbage can render great service to
the nation by volunteering to make
these analyses in their localities.
Vast amounts of bread, meat. and
edible fats are wasted in garbage and
tons of valuable feedstuff for animals
are lost to the food supply of the ma
ton by usual garbage reduction or
dlspsal methods. One of the first
results from the careful ANALYSIS of
city garbage should. be the passage
of more rigid enforcement of garbage
collection ordinances, requiring that
no glass, tin, wood, burnt matches,
paper, string or inorganic trash be
mixed with the vegetable material.
meat scraps, or bones which can be
used for feed.
This dual collection of garbage and
trash is being rigidIy enforced by
Germany in all cities of 10000 peo-
pie. Garbage so collected from a
population of 100000 people in
Germany, although the German gar
bage pail always has been far leaner
than the American one and is espe,
cially light at this period, furnished
briquettes rich in protein which when
fed to dairy cattle produced 1,5OO,0 900
to 100000 quarts of milk daily.
In most American cities, however,
garbage is sent to reduction plants

COUNTY AGENT URGES
FULL COOPERATION

Cooperative shipments and a farm.
ers' marketing bureau are being
stressed by Farm Demonstration
Agent c. A Fulford, who believes
that such will solve many problems
connected with local consumption and
distribution.
The former, he states, will insure
shipment at proper times, when the
market is in a condition to care for
the products, and the latter will ia
cilitate distribution and eliminate
the middleman and the consequent
high prices.
Conditions in Escambia county are
cited by Mr.. Fulford in moving his
contention, and great Inequalities are
shown, for frequently the farmer is
forced to sell his products for lower
than the market price. while the re-
taller makes his regular profit, and
an additional profit because of the
loss of the farmer.
BY cooperative shipments, Mr..
Fulford states that the farmers
would be in a measure independent,
and not forced to rely on local mar
kets, as collective shipments could be
made with profit to all. 1t would
also permit, it is contended, the farm
ers to plant with a view of supply
ing a certain amount, and avoiding
wastage-

Ceremony in Honor Depart
ed Brothers and Sisters
Held Yesterday.
r. P. REESE AND
w. A. BLOUNT SPEAK
Patriotic Appeal in Cere-
mony-Many Attend
the Exercises.

Impressive ceremonies featured
the memorial conducted for departed
WOOdmen and members of the Wood
mems Circle. yesterday at $50 o'clock
in the w o. w. hall, at the corner of
Romano and Baylen streets. A large
and attentive audience was present.
The weather was very warm, but the
large meeting hall had been COM
fortably aired hours before by the
arrangements committee, and there
were several overhead fans.
This ceremony is an annual affair
by the W. 0. W.. and usually occurs
on June of each year, but If that
date does not fall on a Sunday, the
next Sabbath nearest to the date men
toned is observed as memorial day.
With the singing Of America" in
which all joined, the program was
formally started. An invocation was
asked by Rev. J. A. Ansley, pastor
of the First Baptist church, and then
the ladies of the Woodmen's Circle
conducted memorials as a tribute to
departed sisters. During the year
three members of the w. o. w. circle
have passed away. They were eulo-
gized in speech by r. p. Reese.
Mrs, Kate Brown was in charge Of
these ceremonies, assisted by Mrs.
Everhardt, guardian.
Hickory Camp No. 21 lost two SOW
ereigns during the year, and Live Oak
Camp No. l lost two also. These
were eulogized in a speech by L. Y.
Holsberry, who also, in the course Of
his touching address, remembered
Sovereign Strickland, member of a
Mobile camp, who passed away during
the past year.
W. A. Blount, Jr., made the, prin-
cipal address of the afternoon, and
he paid high compliments to the or
der in general, which has such large
membership here, and which has such
commendable features in its conduct.
Mr.. Blount reviewed some of these
and made a good talk for woodcraft.
Music for the afternoon was fur
nished by Mrs. Nita Osborne Benu's
class, and was one Of the biggest fea-
lures of the exercises. Inc after
noon was brought to a close, after a
violin solo and the singing of "The
Star Spangled Banner" with the
bencdiction.

where all the fat and oil it contains
is recovered for use in making soap
or greases. The residue after the oil
is extracted is used as fertilizer or
dumped into the ocean. This prac-
tice has been highly profitable be-
cause the American garbage pail Is
very rich in fat, American garbage
averaging 3 per cent of fat, while
German garbage rarely shows even l
per cent of fat, as the German peo-
pie never have been wasteful of ami
nal or other fats. Another reason
for the use of the reduction method
is that in many cities ordinances pre-
vent the use of garbage for feeding
animals, particularly dairy cows, al
though there is no valid hygienic OBJ
lection to the use of dried and prop
erly sterilized garbage as food for
cattle or hogs.
The department specialists believe
that as the thrift idea gains ground
less and less fiat will be thrown into
the garbage nail and are hopeful that
the time is not far distant when the
amount of fat will make reduction
for the recovery of oils hardly worth
while This will mean that a lot of
excellent and valuable foodstuff now
being wasted as food will never get
into the garbage pail. Even when
all fat is eliminated, however, and
waste of bread and cereals and meat
has been reduced to a minimum, the
garbage pail nevertheless will con-
tain in the form of parings, plate
scraps and trimmings a vast amount
of material which should be con-
served and used as feed for hogs,
cattle or poultry. First, however,
the people must face the facts and
know the truth of their waste, and
in bringing this waste home local
chemists can render effective service.

SECRETARY EXPRESSES DIS
PLEASURE AT GROUNDLESS
RUMORS WHICH HE BELIEVES
PURPOSELY CIRCULATED.

Washington, June 1O.-Persistent
and widely circulated false reports of
naval battles and disaster to Ameri-
can and entente forces have reached
the point where Secretary Daniels
has concluded that they are the result
of an organized conspiracy to alarm
and distress the American people.
The secretary issued the following
statement:
"The country is being poisoned by
rumors of battle and disaster that
are absolutely without the slightest
foundation in truth. Among the
most persistent of these false renorts
is one that q naval engagement has
taken place between the German
fleets and the combined fleets of Eng
land and the United States and that
in this battle sixty English and
American ships were sunk or dis
abled, two of the number being the
PENNSYLVANIA and the Texas.
In elaboration of this falsehood,
there is the added rumor that the
hospitals at the Atlantic coast naval
wards are filed with crippled sailors
and marines and that the various
hospitals of New York re equal
ly crowded with wounded men.
