power PLANT IN
ARGENT|NAYOUL
Develop COUNTRY

Il Buenos Aires, Nov. 1-(Corres-
pon6ence of The Associated Press)-
Restriction Of exports as a result Of
the war has caused Argentina to seek
the development of its own natural
resources, A proposal now receiving
a great amount Of publicity and gen.
eral approval In the newspapers Is the
suggestion made by the Minister of
Agriculture, DR.. Pueyrredon. to Presl-
dent Irigoyen that the government:
build an electric power plant at the
Igazu Falls which, the minister says,
would solve the fuel problem, open
I'D vast regions of rich resources
which are now dormant for lack of
transportation facilities and bring Ar
gentina and Brazil closer together
commercially by means of an electric
railroad.
One of the principal arguments of
the minister's friends is that the pro-
posed power plant would do more
than any other thing toward develop
ing shipbuilding in Argentina as it
would open up the rich pine forests Of
Missions, and provide shelters for re-
ducing the limonite which is found in
large quantities in this region and
said to contain as high as SO per cent.
of iron. The working Of the forests
woulE also permit the manufacture
Of print paper, winch has been so
scarce here.
Larger Than Niagara
The Igazu Falls are among the
largest in the world, being nearly flf-
ty feet higher than Niagara Falls AMI
three times as wide. They are in the
Igazu river in the Argentine territory
of MIsiones on the Brazilian frontier.
One section known as the Devils
Throat, is reputed to carry as much
water as the Niagara River.
Electrical engineers say that one
of the smallest falls In the Igazu
group could produce a million horse
power without detracting any from
the beauty of the Falls.
Igazu Falls are little known even
to tourists because of the difficulty of
reaching them. From Buenos Aires
1t is necessary to go by rail or river
to Posadas, in the territory of Mis-
ZONES, and then by horseback for sew
eral days before reaching the falls
They are in a part of South America
that Is exceedingly hot and infested
with poisonous insects so that the few
who do brave the journey are required
to wear heavy wells and gloves despite
the heat.
Capitalists have on several occasions
asked the Argentine Goernment fo:'
concessions to operate a power plant
at the Igazu Falls but their petitions
never were acted upon.

FOOD SCHEDULES
FOR FAMILY Use
BY. MISS. !SPRAGUE

In the opinion OF Miss M E. Spra-
que. Director OF the Home Economics
Department Of the Food AdmIniEtra-
ton, Connecticut housewives will be
greatly in trested in the rules for buy
Ing daily food for the family printed
herewith. Miss Spragues urges that
the rules be clipped out, pasted'in the
kitchen and consulted daily or week
ly, whenever the housewife plans her
menus and does her buying.
MILK
Set aside enough money to buy
quart of milk day for each child
and Ia quart of milk daily for each
grown person.
Cheese will do for grown people
in place of milk-scant 2 ounces OF
cheese for 1-3 quart.
Skim milk has nourishment for
grown people; not SO good fare for
children; half the child's daily quart
may be skim milk If necessary.
If anyone has to go without milk,
it must not be the children.
FAT
Buy to ounces of some fat for
each grown person. Children who are
getting a quart of whole milk daily
do not need as much other fat.
Butter is the best fat. especially for
little children.
SUGAR
Buy only sugar enough to make
the meals palatable; it is not needed
for food.
One and a half ounces, or about
level tablespoonfuls daily of sugar,
honey, molasses, or syrup for each
person is enough. Not more than 1
ounce of this should be in the form
Of sugar.
Spending more than necessary for
sugar when the purse is low cuts off
the family from other food more
nourishing.
FRESH VEGETABLES
4-Buy each day potatoes and one
other egetable-cabbage onions,
carrots, turnips, beets or the like.
Children may have daily 2 or 8
medium sized potatoes and IA pound
or more of some other vegetable.
Grown persons can eat daily to
8 medium potatoes and IL pound or
more of other vegetables.
CEREALS
5-Buy no more wheat than the
Food Administration directs. For
l. other cereals use rolled oats, pinhead
| oatmeal, corn meal, hominy, barley,
rice and buckwheat.
Flours, meals and breakfast foods
made from the entire grain are more
desirable than the others. These in
clude underground corn meal, rolled
| oats or oatmeal, and cracked wheat.
Dried peas and beans and plenty
of potatoes make less bread neces-
sary.
Give each member of, the fam
lily a little fruit every day. Apples,
fresh or dried, dried prunes, and raj
sins are among the cheapest fruits.
VARIED DIET
All that is necessary to keep the
| family alive and we'll is told in the
above list of foods; if more is spent,
it may give variety and better fla
vor to the meals.
If the family purse allows
Meat may be added for the grown
people.
Eggs may be added for all the fam
| lily.
More may be spent for milk, cream,
| butter, cheese, fruits, vegetables, fats
and sweets.

Says Constitution Dangerous.

This proposed new constitution must be studied to be understood, and whea understood it seems to me. is the most dangerous document that have ever seen. When it was proposed by Judge Evans to exempt $500 worth of per Sonal property from taxation. the proposition had practically no follow ing and utterly failed.
 But when the bankers asked for bonds-state bonds. county bonds. school district bonds. road district bonds. levy bonds and municipal bonds and that such bonds be exempt from taxation. the request was granted.
 It provides for an income tax. but II iS in such q maner that it cannot Ae graduated If poor washwoman makes $2 a wekk over her washtub. she must pay tax on that income but if man owns S1,o00,000 in state. county, municipal, road or school dis trict bonds and gets his income o1 S6o0C0,0oo T year il k exempt from r aXatiDn.
