War Time Economy.

The following hints were written
by an English womsn to the New
York Evening Sun:
This is what we have found out
during three years Of actual war con-
ditions: The most important things
in practical economy are generally
the simplest. the least spectacular
and the hardest. 1t sounds simple
and not at all thrilling to say that
the biggest thing of all is to save by
U allowing each week pot cent
more than is absolutely necessary
for each part of v, UT expenditure
help. kitchen utensils, upkeep,
vegetables meat. butter, sugar. etc
These amounts must be revised
each week to see If they are correct,
must he clearly written in your note
book and must be rigidly adhered
to- (2) Buying not an ounce more
of any kind of food than you absO-
lutely need Opportunity breeds
waste. Don't get too little, but bet
ter too little than scrap too much
| 90 Serving exactly the amount
that is allowed to be eaten each
meal Many people like to have
plenty on the table. and they have
some good reasons on their side, but
in war time ach household must
follow its own fixed rations. 0nce
your people learn TO do il they will
| like this method best because they
know that they can eat every thing
in sight without causing secret
heartbreaks among the cooks and
buyers
when bread and potatoes are
plenty and cheap, or at any rate
cheaper than most other foods of
their kind, build up all hashes, meat
ioaves (both hot and cold0 pud
dines aud anything else that will
stand il by the mixture of bread and
potato"

One recent Sunday. so the story,
goes "a farmer drove to the county
attorneys home and demanded the
arrest of a neighbours working crew
that was violating the Sabbath. The
county attorney was busy pulling
weeds in his garden, and suggested
that the complainant 60 before the
justice Of peace OF his own township,
but he was informed that the justice
was out fixing his windmill He
was then asked to telephone the
sheriff and have him attend to the
matter, but he was busy loa ling
cattle in the stock yards. The far.
mer was exasperated and resolved
to saddle a horse and 60 for a con.
stable, but his good wife who was
busy canning fruit, informed him
that the boys had driven the horses
to the village and were playing
baseball"
