Every Day Sugar Saving In Nation
And State.
There are 1oO,oOO.OOO people in the
United States. Suppose each one
saves just one level teaspoon of sugar
each day, how much will that mean?
96 level teaspoons-1 pound.
Divide 100000 teaspoonfuls by
IS and you have:
1,041,666 2-3 lbs. saved in l day.
1886 2-3 lbs. saved in l week.
31.249,990 lbs. saved In l month.
The population of Virginia was esti.
mated at 2,202,522 In 1917 A saving Of
one level teaspoonful for each person
IN this State would mean:
ace SEP teaspoonfuls day or %,
9A3 pounds saved in day,
16O,8O1 pounds saved II l week.
66S,290 punds saved In month.

RAISING FOXES IN ALASKA
Animals Are Bred There for Their
Fur, and the industry Is Re-
muncrative One.

There are ten or twelve fox farms
in Alaska. One of them, situated III
the Tanana valley, mile and a half
from Fairbanks, consists of ten acres
of cleared land, the greater part Of
which is covered with pens in which
the animals live. From a distance the
fox farm looks like O huge chicken
yard, with walls Of woven wire and
hencoops Of various sizes inside. Each
pen is so feet long, s feet wide and
about 10 feet high. The wire Is tough
steel and is sunk about four feet IL
the ground and is then bent so that j.
runs inward underground for about
two feet to prevent the foxes from dig
g;ng out. At the top the wire has an
overhang OF two feet to prevent the
captives from climbing over. Each
pen has q kennel made Of boards. like
dog kennel, the entrance to which IS
g chute or wooden pipe a foot
square. Only one pair Of foxes live IL
each pen. They are very timid and
have to be handled carefully. Most OF
the fox farmers will not allow strang-
ers to enter their property for fear
they will brighten the animals. The
foxes are fed with salmon, moose
meat, horse meat, rabbits, carrots and
turnips. A common feed is rice and
rabbits cooked together in q stew.

10 the Editor OF The Times Dispatch:
Str,-ln u recent issue OF your paper
there appeared In the query column an
Interesting para graph on The Eng fish
Lang uasc, in which the statement
was made that the Vocabulary OF
literature and commerce contains n
majority OF words OF foreign origin
- From this the average reader
might easily infer that such works as
the plays OF Shakespeare, the poems Of
Milton and tho essays OF Macaulay
contain minority OF words OF tho ma
tive stock. This. however, IL not the
case. Language specialists have csti-
mated that the proportion of native
to foreign words is, in Shakespeare.
30 TO 10: in Milton. 81 to 10; in Macau-
lay. 80 to %; in Tcnnyson, IS to IL.
All these igurcs, and others that might
be given, point to the prepondcranCc
OF words of the native element in the
works OF great writer's.
The following quotation from Pro-
fcsSor q. +. Emcrson's The History Of
the English Language" will make per-
fcctiy clear the fact that. though Eng
lish has borrowed freely from other
tongues, tho foreign words both OF the
spoken and OF the written language
are still in the minority They out
number the native words in the die
iionary. but not in actual use: and a
word is significant only when IL is
drawn into the current OF speech or
writing. Professor Emerson says:

Weakness in Organization

\ LII the counts in the indictment brought
a by the Senate Military Affairs Committee
against the signal corps may not be justified
by the facts and circumstances, but there is
abundant testimony to bear out the conclu-
sion that the organization Of the aircraft
project is deficient. 1t is the same deficiency
which has been evident in many of the other
enterprises Of the government and which
only time and experience have been able to re-
veal
When the United States undertook the con-
struction OF enough airplanes to give the
allies a prcpond crancc of battleplanes, it was
found advisable TO create an aircraft produc-
ton board, a board composed OF experts in
side and outside OF tho government service.
This board devoted its earliest energies
wholly to propaganda. 1t began with a
smashing campaign from end to end of the
country in order to impress Congress with
the Importance of making enormous ap-
preparation with which to finance the build
ing of the overwhelming air fleet.
The campaign handled with skill and
effect. The money was appropriated--s640.
100000 the first throw-and the whole plan
was launched. AS we look back upon 1T We
are convinced that tho real usefulness OF
the aircraft production board ended right
there. 1t had done good job in impressing
the country and Congress with the value OF
fighting machines, and instead Of legalizing
this body and giving it definite authority in
carrying the enterprise into operation, it
should have hccn disbanded or placed in the
category OF advisory" commissions.
Either the signal corps should have been
promptly clothed with complete power to
build the aircraft. equip item for action
and train the aviators, some one
man Of driving personality should have been
placed in charge of the job. 1t was mis-
take, as realized. to place the aircraft
project in the hands Of two separate and
distinct agencies. How much of the delay
which has followed is attributable to friction
between the signal corps and the aircraf It
production board is not indicated by the Sen
ate committee or by any other investigating
body, but the opportunity for friction is al
ways present when there are two bosses OF
any job
1t is unfortunate for the country that the
report which has been made to the Senate
should come from a committee which is hos
tile TO the whole War Department. and has
lost no opportunity 10 assume a harsh and
critical attitude toward the administration.
The good results which might otherwise be
expected from such an inquiry as the Military
Affairs Committee has made probably will
be defeated, and the bad results no doubt will
be accentuated
