CONDUCTED BURiALS IN STATE
Large Amounts Of Money Spent by
coIonists Of Virginia In Exercises
Over Their Dead.

In colonial Virginia funerals were %.
cial as well as solemn occasions, as II
shown by Mrs. Mary N. Stanard in her
interesting review of the seventeenth
century customs of Virginians. When
death entered the planters home mes
sengers were sent on horseback over
land, or by sail or rowboat up and
down the rivers to notify friends and
relatives. while In the kitchen the big
pot was put into the little one; for
not only did the colonists bring with
them the English custom of the fu-
neral feast, but much of the company
that would be ere long at the door
would arrive hungry after a journey
of many miles and would remain sew
eral days, consuming a great quantity
of food and drink. The funeral ex-
penses of John Smalcombe, who died
in 1916. included a steer about four
years old and a barrel of strong beer,
which together cost nine hundred ana
sixty pounds of tobacco-nearly four
times as much as the coffin, which cost
two hundred and fifty pounds. Powder
spent at this funeral" cost twenty
four pounds of tobacco.

Snow Worms.

In Germany the term ssnow worm
&c annlied to the larva Of a beetle often
found in the snow. Many species OF
insect are commonly found on glaciers
The most abundant of these are the
springtails, which hop like miniature
fleas or wriggle deity into the cavities
Of tbe snow, but are so minute that the
passerby needs to look for them in or
dor to see them. Snow-lOving spring
tails are not confined to glaciers; they
occur in great numbers on the surface
Of melting snow on bright, sunny spring
days through the northern united
States.

When Thrift and Patriotism Conflict

This is an anchor to windward We can
near some one say that it is an EASY matter
to be patriotic and save wheat and surar
and beef for the Allies if you have the price
OF rice flour, honey and lobster. But if Won
haven't, what then?
Cornmeal and potatoes are cheaper than
wheat and can be used to even up the nc
count; sugars can we'll train ourselves
to do without to a large extent, for we have
ruined our sense of taste and our digestions
by masking the natural favors and frut
sugars with too much sucrose; fish and sra
foods OF all kinds are becoming more plenti
1ul and cheaper and should be used as suh
sttutes for meats whenever possible. IF ono
can't have lobster and crabs, porgies. honn-
ders and butterfish are not to be clespscd.
One can, however, give festive air to
the menus by occasionally using some of
these more expensive foods and economizing
on another day mote the baked bean dinner
on Saturday,. Each must adapt the sugges
lions given to her own needs and purse.
brains and good cooking, variety and care
ful planning, can do much to reconcile thrift
and patriotism even in these DAYS of soar
ing prices.
And whenever you can afford to, "rescue
the perishables,' even if they are more ex-
pensivc. and release the staples that will
stand hipment, for export. We are hosts at
'he "ofld table just now. A. L. P.

with volunteer workers paid in produce at the
rate of Is cents an hour. An executive COM

nucleus back OF the kitchen, helping to plan

The actual labor cost of the kitchen is about
$3.50 month, plus perhaps $50 paid in product
to volunteer workers. The labor cost runs high
because the drying is directed by an expert
whom the kitchen has been fortunate in having.
