FLOUR SUBSTITUTES.

Some people act very foolishly
about flour substitutes. One grocer
reports customer saying to him
that she didn't know What to do with
her substitutes. They had been
gathering up until she had a big
supply of them and the bugs and
worms were getting into them. The
woman thought she had complied
with all the requirements when she
took from the grocer fifty of sub
stitutes with fifty of -four, and 50
she made her bread Of the -four and
didn't use the substitutes at all. She
had complied with the letter of the
orcer, but her compliance wasn't Of
the slightest value to the govern
ment 1t amounted to nothing in
winning the war. It is not the gov
ernment's idea to help the grocer sell
his corn meal and other substitutes,
but the idea is to get the people to
eating these substitutes instead of
wheat flour. Where one anly buys
substitutes and doesn't use them she
does nothing toward conserving
wheat fiour-and that is the only
thing that helps. You may not like
your bread part substitutes and you
may not like to eat mush, but these
are times when the patriotic woman
is ready to do things she does not
like in order that worse things may
not come upon the world.

ing ooZe, looking for all the world like bit OF
wreckage itself. But it had just finished long
bout of pumping under water in that hold, which
ironwork and sludge that was indescribable;
and when it had been put over the side and had
pumped Il few tons of clean water through
itself, that pump ready to start work again
anywhere.
The secret of the pump is that it is not water
tght-which sounds absurd. 1t is. however, per-
fectly true that the water flow in and
around the whole of the works of the pump while
it is at work No one has ever hitherto succeed
ed in making electricity work under water in
this way; but the uses of the discovery are plain
to the Iayman. A ship fitted with these
pumps, for example ought never to sink if she
has enough of them on board, because they can
be set to work in the flooded compartments and
pump the water ont as fast as it comes in. Dam
age to the engine rooms does not affect the
pumps. because they do not rely for their cur
rent on the ships dynamos, but their own
portable outfit.
Salvage experts tell one rather amusing tale
of the versatility of the pumps. fire broke out
in the hold of q ship that carrying a very
valuable intlammable cargo. Two submersible
pumps were on board and the captain slung
them over the side into the sea, attached good
length of hose to them and set them going to
pump water at the rate of about $50 tons an
hour each into the burning hold. They soon put
the fire out and the captain then lowered the
pumps into the hold and made them pump out
the water they had previously pumped in.
