SAVING THE SUGAR

With the sugar situation going from
bad to worse, it ID beginning to be
feared by q good many Of us that
we will have to give up even our tea
and coffee pretty soon, or else learn
to drink it without sugar. Still, that
Is not what really worries the house
wife SO much, but what does get her
goat (excuse me ladies) is trying to
have nice meal with Q dessert Of
some kind, and ut the same time save
the sugar. Now, it has been demons
trated by cooking experts in various
cooking schools, that sugar can be
omitted to q great extent from any
number of good things and strained
honey and different kinds of syrups
be used instead. The United States
Department of Agriculture has pre-
pared q most interesting and instruc-
tive booklet on the uses of honey and
syrups, either booklet which can be
secured by dropping card to the
the State Agricultural College, Fl.
Collins, Colorado. We recently receiy-
ed copy and have tried some of the
recipes where sugar is omitted and
honey used instead. They were fine
too and We are herewith publishing a
few recipes taken from the booklet.
In substituting honey one should re-
member that honey contains one-fifth
Of cupful of water to cup of honey
and therefore, where the recipes call
for one cup Of sugar, substitute ONE
cup Of honey, but use one-fifth Of
cup less of milk, or whatever liquid is
called for in the recipe. This rule
has been found good in large num-
ber of ordinary cake recipes.
One cup of honey will sweeten any
dish the same degree as will one cup
of cane sugar.

RED CROSS FEATURE ON
CATTLEMEN'S DAY MAKES HIT

Well, any how, the Kaiser didn't
spoil our fun, no Stree. We had our
celebration just the same, and even II
a large number Of the boys who have
always helped to make it such . grand
success in the past, are now lover
there" star performers in the great
worlds free-f0r-all, we still gave .
pretty good exhibition on Cattlemen's
Day all the same. And what was
better, we, the gentler sex, were right
there when it came to attraction. In
fact, on the second day Of the celebra-
tion, We were pretty much "it."
One could not help but admire and
applaud when the Red Cross ladies' of
Gunnison and vicinity marched down
Main street carrying their banners.
1t was q pretty sight, and an inspir-
ing one too. The floats were al that
could be desired in that line, and even
the delivery wagon, decorated and
arranged to represent an army ambu-
lance was cheered, even though il
brought feeling of sadness to the
spectators, particularly to those, in
whose windows there hangs a service
flag. To be sure the sounds coming
from the ambulance in which there
were several young men dressed to
represent wounded soldiers, and q
very dainty and pretty. Red Cross
nurse. sounded more like suppressed
laughter than groans, but neverthe-
less, there was Tightening around
ones throat and q moisture in ones
eyes as the parade moved slowly
down the street toward the celebra-
tion grounds, accompanied by the band.
At the grounds, the singing of patrio-
tic airs brought everyone to his
feet, and no one blamed an old gentle
man in the crowd when he blew his
nose violently and muttered aloud to
no one in particular: "Beats Hell how
them songs effect US old fellows"
Mrs. Webster's song, "When Sam
my Comes Sailing Home," was sung
by the Choral Society 4. and others
for all to hear, and afterwards copies
Of the song were sold to the crowd,
everyone wanting copy, and no won
der, for it is . very pretty song with
= sprightly air that keeps ones feet
tapping.
One pretty feature, of the Red Cross
parade was the marching up in front
Of the judges stand and suddenly
forming in the shape Of . cross, the
ladies who wore the red colt, being in
the center of the cross, thus forming
. red mark down the middle Of the
figure: It brought forth applause on
all sides.
And the Red Cross auctionl Good
graciousi how the things went.Not q
thing was left Of all the things do
mated. The way the money came out
Of pockets, purses, handbags and the
checks written out, made one wonder
il the next Liberty Loan soon to be
sprung ON US, will even have look in
rs far n Gunnison goes.
Everyone had q good time, and all
missed the boys who were here last
year, but we thought Of them one and
all, as we viewed the "doings" and
one and all hoped from his heart that
they win be here with MS to celebrate
next Cattlemen,s Day.

DID YoU KNOW,

According to British medical men
Of prominence sweets at the end Of .
meal are wrong. It is claimed by
them that sweets give rise to acids
and these cause decay Of the teeth.
Sweets should be eaten 1t most any
time except at the end Of the meal,
fruits being eaten instead. These
medical men claim that fruit stimu-
lates the flow Of saliva and thus aids
in digestion Of food. This should be
good news to Hoover.

 The Government YVES shown by the company that without woolen- wear in Alaska there would be much suffering, owing to the rigors of the climate at certain seasons oi the year.

 And during the long winters in every section of Alaska, wooden fabric is esential. A man travelling the winter trails in the interior would freeze to death quickly il garbed in cotton clothes.
