TO the natlon-for the fact that most
individual losers are partially reim-
bursed by insurance does not In the
least reduce the drain on our national
resources-and It Is n loss that Is large

The problem Of fighting or prevent
ing fire In the country districts IA a
most serious one, for organized FIRE
prevention work such us has been de-
veloped to n science In many cities In

Some fires on farms may be unavoid-
able, but n great many OF them could
be prevented by n comparatively small
amount OF time lntelllgently applied
by the individual farmers in the study
OF conditions which are likely TO cause
fire. and by placing simple and mex
penslve tir%e-lghtlng equipment In con
venlent places about the farm build
lngs.
The farmer should study his build
ings and their contents from the point
Of view OF the fire inspector of the
city, whose sole business Is TO see all
the things that can be done 10 rm-
prove conditions SO that fire cannot
easily start, and TO determine tho
best ways Of fighting any fires that
mny start. He should remember that
any preventive or protective measures
which he may take are for his
benefit, and that protection sufficient
to prevent n fire Is cheap MS com
pared with the loss entalled by the
average farm fire. Every building or
set Of buildings has certain points
which are more susceptible TO fires
than others. but adequate protection
must be provided for the entire prem

loss accustomed by n serious fire is
such that very few people a AFFORD

would result In reducing the number
Of fires, and, therefore, the rate OF pre-

FEEDING SCRAPS

Fowls will eat all the leayings that
are IN edible form. by special prep.

human consumption become valuable

They viii eat considerable amounts OF
the parlngs OF oil kinds OF vegetables

the birds can swallow them readily.
Many poultry keepers save parings,
cook them with small potatoes aud
other waste vegetables, aud fed mixed

Not all kitchen waste, however,

II n c%ondensary Is within reasonable
distance the creameryman sometimes
can sell his skim milk there. Very
Few creamerles, however, are 20 stu
ated, and the largest opportunity for
the crenmcryman to divert skim milk
and buttermilk into channels of hui
man consumption Is by the mnnufac-
ture Of cOttage cheese, says the United
States department of agriculture.
This product II ensy to make and util-
lies skim milk and good grades OF
buttermllk.
Cottnge cheese is one of the lmpor-
tant meat substitutes. II contains n
larger percentage OF protein (the chief
material for body bulldlng) than most
meats and furnishes this material ut
a lower cost. In every pound OF cot
tage cheese there Is about One-flfth of
n pound OF protein. nearly all OF which
Ia dlgestlble. Meats, on the other
hand, usually contain less protein and
besides have n certain waste, such MS
bone and other lnedlble material. A
pound NJ cottnge cheese daily would
supply all the protein required by the
ordinary adult engaged In n ~sedentary
occupation.
The following table shows that cot
tnge cheese Is much cheaper than
meats In furnishing protein for the
diet.
For supplying protein, / pound OF
cottage cheese equals:
1.27 pounds slrloln steak.
100 pounds round steak.
1887 pounds chuck rib beef.
1.52 pounds fowl.
