used. Milk bottles should be carefully
wiped before removing the cap for
two reasons, the first because of
cleanliness, the second because bits
OF glass are often Clipped out of the
bottle in transit and are unnoticed,
even when they drop off into the milk
when pouring 1t from the bottle.
Kindling may be carried very easily
by using piece Of canvas with strong
handles. Cut the cloth As by q
inches.
Use wooden spoons In stirring foods
A hard rap Of metal spoon on the
side Of granite dish will dislodge
pieces of the lining of the dish; this
gets into the food and is as dangerous
as glass. A wooden spoon never be-
comes too hot to handle and is much
easier on the hands in stirring.
Water drained from cooked rice or
macaroni makes fine starch for laces
or delicate dresses.
Brooms are too expensive these
days to treat without consideration.
They should always be hung or turned
upside down, resting on the handle.
Grated potato used as poultice
over an infiamed eye will relieve 1t If
left overnight.
A sauce dish of leftover preserves
may be thickened with a little gela-
tin, with a grating of lemon or bot
tie of lemon juice added, then served
with whipped cream, making dainty
dessert and an economical one.
The dish Of onions left from to-
days dinner may be put through a
sieve and served in tomorrow's meat
sauce.
Nails and roughness in the heel Of
shoe will rub and wear the hose.
Pound down the nails and glue a piece
Of heavy cloth or channels skin into
each heel. This will save the feet
and also the hose.
The wise buyer will purchase good
sized eggs when possible, and when
starting the poultry yard see that
she has a strain Of hens which pro-
duce large eggs. Small eggs should
not demand the same price. Weighing
eggs is a wise and economical method,
and will in time discourage the pro-
duction Of small eggs.

Bows at Girls School.

The instructors In the branch Of the
Girls Industrial school, which meets
at the Flanner Guild. were surprised
when the school opened few weeks
ago to find a class Of boys ready and
anxious to begin work.
"Don't you understand this school Is
for girls only?" asked one Of the teach
ers.
Eyes, we heard that, but what's the
difference? We want to learn to sew"
The teachers were in Quandary,
but finally decided to give the boys
their first lesson with the needle; but
the sight of the boys sewing caused
the girls much merriment, and made so
much confusion that 1t was decided to
bar them.
They appeared the next Saturday,
however, and begged so hard to be
taken in that they are now regular FIX
lures. The work they do is equal to
that of the girls, and the teachers are
proud of them. They take more than
the usual amount Of interest and spend
all of the time they are In school at
work.-Indianapoli News

GREATER SUGAR
CUT NEXT MONTH
Sugar Administration Prepares Nation
for Shorter Ration-Must Sup
ply Gamers.

WASHINGTON, July with the new
sugar crop six months distant and the
heavy demands for sugar for canning grow
ing daily, the country should be prepared
for still greater reductions in the sugar
ration. August may bring another cut
The American who loves sweet drinks
is likely to find before the early fall that
the popular beverages are no longer so
palatable, unless plenty of substitutes
are developed
The demands of the Gamers must be
met, as bumper fruit crops have been
raised, and foodstuffs cannot be allowed
to go to waste. The Food Administration
plans to distribute the reduction over a
period of months, so that the restrictions
will not work sudden hardship. While
there is no real sugar shortage in any see
ton that cannot be met, it is to prevent
serious conditions arising that the further
reductions are contemplated this far in
advance.
The present ration is on basis of three
pounds per capita month, or thirty-six
pounds year This is considerably ahead
of twenty pounds per capita yearly, and
France has about sixteen pounds. Italy
does not go over twelve pounds.
Federal Sugar Administrator Zabriskie
is working out a snew distribution plan
which he soon will be ready to announce
