ment into sound channels. In UNDER
taking all preliminary Investigations,
and floating industrial issues under its
own aegis it will fulfil useful func-
tons. It has another advantage. It
creates banking machinery, as far as
this country is concerned of an en-
tirely new character. There has been
bitter complaint that industrial enter
prises have received Inadequate sup
port from commercial banks. The
Tata Bank removes all ground for
complaints of that character, its raison
d'etre being that Industrial financing
requires banks constituted specially
for that purpose. 1t is not the bust
ness of either the Pre- dencE or Tx
change banks to finance industries.
They are constituted to finance trade
and trade alone. The need of indus,
trial banks has often been felt, To
has now received practical Tecogni-
ton under the best possible auspices.
AS Sir r. n. Mookerj of
the local board of management, OBJ
served in asking Lord Ronaldshay to
declare the Calcutta branch open:
India for some time past, and in
an increasing measure as the war has
progressed, has been thrown more
and more on her own latent, resources.
New industries have sprung into ex-
istence and we stand on the threshold
of an era of great industrial develop
ment!'
Every new enterprise Of a Compel
tive character meets with criticism,
but taking it by and large we believe
the Tata Bank IS generally accepted
as an institution containing the po-
tentiality of useful and profitable
achievement in the interest of Indian
economic development"
The Asia Banking Corporation,
which was recently formed by the
Guaranty Trust Company and a group
of associated banks. will act as cor
respondent of the Tata Industrial
Bank in the Far East. A large part
of India's trading is done with China,
Japan, Java, and other parts of East
ern Asia, where the Asia Banking Cor
poration will ultimately operate.

SUGAR SAVING,

Because of the present shortage of
sugar 1t is necessary for each person
to reduce his consumption Of sugar,
There are so many sweet foods
that may be used in place Of sugar
that this should be no hardship.
/. Cut out candy.
q Use less sugar in tea and coffee
and substitute other sweetenlng
wherever possible r.,
8. Try cooking breakfast cereal
with chopped figs. dates, or raisins.
You will not need to add any sugar at
the table.
d. Use molasscs, honey, corn, or
other syrups for swecteuing.
5. Apple syrup and concentrated
cider
Get government pamphlet giving
directions for making syrup from ap-
pies and other fruits. Try some of
these.
G. Use fresh fruits for desserts in
place of rich pastries and sweet
buildings,
I, Bake apples or ears with u lit
tie water for several hours until Il
rich syrup forms.
s. If more swectening is desired add
little honey Or molasses.
9. Stew dried prunes in the water
in which they wee soaked until tho
liquid is most boiled away If more
juice is wanted ed w.ter TO the
syrup. The Ionm. slow cooking is
necessary to develop a rich llav0r.
10. Cut down the use of cake.
II. De not use frostins mi .ss YOU
can make it without sugar.
IL. Esther honey Of maple sy'l,r can
be substituted for sugar in a boil ed
frostin2'
13 When cake IS made. it should
be not only wh"@t-aaving but sugar
saving and fat-savine. Try making
cakes in which coranlcal. corn -four,
rye flour. potato -four, rice flour Or"
cornst"' j"thst ituted for part Of
the saving
the wheat -four.
Ia. Use corn syrup, molasses,
honey and other syrups for part or
all of the sugar.
15. A good working rule in making
such substitution is to use one cup of
syrup as equivalent to one cup of
sugar plus Ia cup of liquid Cora
syrup does not sweeten as much as
molasses or honey
