We Are Living in Changed
And Fast Changing World.

To us all there has come Of late the
unacceptable fact that we are living IN
a changed and fast changing world.
says the Christian Herald. Under the
stress and strain Of world upheaval
our physical, domestic. economic and
social life is undergoing daily the
process Of change. We are adjusting
ourselves to a new environment; are
living under new legal restrictions
and abiding by new social customs
and obligations. Through 1t all there
are going on within US equally great
changes in our attitudes to Nfe and its
problems and tasks. We have been
forced out Of our provinciality and
provincialism into a world outlook; an
international spirit is rising; our In
terests have taken on worldwide as
pect and our concerns embrace the po'
litical and economic welfare OF all hu

Seaweed Discovered by
Japanese as Substitute
for C0tton-AIs0 a Food.

Something has been heard lately OF
the value OF seaweed for food. 1t can
also be used, we now learn, says 4
writer In the Manchester Guardian. ~
substitute for cotton. An account or
this new textile was given recently bY
X. Hamada, vice president of the Jana
nese house Of representatives., at q
meeting Of the Japanese Federation Of
Marine Industrial associations.
The raw material may be obtained
from two kinds Of seaweed, called In
Japanese segumo and gomogums.
These are boiled together in water
with wood ashes, and then in water
mixed with rice bran. After bleach
Ing. flbers are extracted which can ba
utilized for manufacturing purposes.
The announcement. of this discovery
has awakened no little interest on the
Pacific coast Of America, where tho
supply of seaweed is almost inexhaust-
ible. 1t is along that coast, too, that
some Of the investigations were car
.ried out few years ago by japanese
scientists, whose explanation that their
visit had as its object the study Of
seaweed was received with considern-
BILE Skepticism.

sion In the minds Of some sportsment
regard to the opening Of the seaso
when the dates conflict under state

The federal law and regulations limit
the seasons before and after which no
one may shoot these birds. II state
law opens the season later or closes
It earlier than the dates prescribed by
the federal regulations, the season IN
that state is just SO much Iurther

to the fact that the federal regulations
do not authorize anyone to hunt or Kill
migratory birds contrary to the state

In certain states, as for example
Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Ken

season for shooting migratory water

Time Required to Cook the
Beans Depends on Length OF
Time Beans Have Been Kept.

In cooking dry beans, the time re-
Quired either in the oven or the cook
ing box win vary with the length OF
time the beans have been kept; the
older the beans the more cooking re-
Quired. according to the United States
department Of agriculture. Soak one
quart Of beans over night; In the
morning drain them and cover with
cold water and heat to boiling. Let
boil until the skins will burst when
touched very lightly, adding one-quar-
ter teaspoonful Of soda few minutes
before taking from the fire. Drain
through q colander. Return to the
kettle and add one teaspoonful Ut salt,
one teaspoonful Of mustard. three ia
blespoonfuls Of molasses and one-half
pound Of salt pork, washed and
sctaped, and cover with boiling water.
Let boil 20 or 30 minutes, then place
In the cooking box. If the beans are
new, six hours in the box will be long
enough. Old beans require longer
cooking and should be left In the box
over night, then reheated in the morn
ing, and returned to the box. They
will be ready to serve for the midday
meal.
Dried vegetables, such as peas
beans, Lima beans, lentils or corn may
I be soaked in cold water several hours
| and then after the preliminary boiling
of a few minutes kept from six tt
twelve hours in the cooker. They may
be cooked with salt pork, and thus
prepared they are liked by many, o.
they may be cooked with vegetable oil
as olive oil, or they may be cooked
plain and seasoned with salt, pepper
and butter or cream. The longer, then
dry vegetables are cooked In the DO,
the more palatable and the more d
gestible they will be.

Ornamental Lamp-Posts
Add to Attractiveness
Of the Up-to- Date City

There Is no feature of municipal
equipment that adds more to the at
Effectiveness Of city's appearances
than do ornamental street lamp-postS
of artistic and appropriate design. JUST
as the effectiveness or interior decOra-
lions and furnishings depend in large
measure upon lighting fixtures, so the.
beauty Of the street can be enhanced
or married by it's lights. In each case
satisfactory solution of the lighting
problem consists not only in supplying
sufficient illumination but also in pro-
Eiding lighting equipment that harmon
ICES with It's surroundings and DOS.
seSSes beauty of it's own. The old
time iamp-pOst In vogue before the
days OF electricity, writes Thomas +.
Davis, In the House Beautiful, fulfilled
the second Of these conditions, but not.;
the first; for. although the post itself
was often work of art, Its feeble oil
or gas flame seldom was equal to the
task OF illuminating the street. On
the other hand, the modern overhead
arc lamp gives fairly satisfactory
light, but the unsightly poles, ropes
wires and other equipment can scarce
ly be called beautiful Now comes thu
ornamental street iamp-post, which
combines the beauty of one of its pre>-
decessors and the utility of the other.

Bread Now Made From Wood

The search for new materials 10
feed the starving stomach OF sweden
has, according to DR.. John w. Beck
man. a member Of the California Sec
tion of the American Chemical socl-
ETY., again demonstrated that neces-
sity Is the mother Of invention.
Sweden, located as 1t Is in the pre-
carious position between the two fight
Ing groups of nations, has found 1t
hard to obtain its necessities from
either Of the fighting nations. In
times of peace, Sweden has always de-
pended upon imported wheat and oth-
er foodstuffs from the East, as we'll
as from the West. With those imports
in many cases completely stopped,
Sweden has sought inside Of its own
domain for new materials. Being a
country which is well wooded. 1t Il
natural that Swedish chemists should
turn to the forests In search OF SUD-
| stitute. This search has proven sue
! cessful and a Swedish chemist has
devised method by which wood can
be produced in such condition tna'
It can be used in bread making. Ii
fact. bread baked out Of two-thlrds
wheat or other -four and one'thlrc
spruce -four is healthful, well-tastni
and digestible food.

of this spruce flour, or cellulose hour

Plant Called "Qulnoa" May
Prove Substitute for Wheat.

There has long been cultivated on
the west coast of South America q
plant called "quin6a." which botanists
and cereal experts believe may prove
an excellent substitute for wheat, in
fact preferable to the substitutes now
in use, says Popular Mechanics Maya
zine. This plant, now attracting par
ticular attention because of the short
age of foodstuffs, has been cultivated
in South America, in more or less
primitive fashion, since pre-1nca days.
The department of agriculture has i'm
ported several lots of quinoa seed and
seed of related species and is making
experiments with it in the hope of
finding a suitable soil and climate in
this country for its cultivation.

Size Of Greater New York Is
So Huge It Can Only Be
! Expressed in Superlatives

In 1917 exports passing out Of New
York harbor had greater volume
than the combined exports Of Asia,
Africa and Australia. The imports
coming through its customs lines ex-
ceeded in value those Of the continents
Of South America, Africa and Aus
tralia together.
For such operations as these, writes
William Joseph Showalter in Ma
tional Geographic Magazine, New
York, perforce, must be great me-
tropolis. In population 1t outranks
any one of half the nations OF the
earth, surpasses that Of the entire con-
tinent of Australia and matches the
combined strength Of the six Western
most states Of the American union.
In annual expenditures it exceeds all
except seven Of the fifty-odd nations
on the map. It's water system could
supply the whole earth with drinking
water. and it's storage reservoirs nold
enough to slake civilizations thirst
for more than year. Its electric
TRANSFORMATION lines carry nearly twice
as many passengers in Il months as
all the steam railroads OF the United
States. They could give every man.
woman and child living ride every
ten months-so much for the yard
stick comparison.
It seems unbelievable. but IL every
resident whose parents were born II
America were to leave New York lit
standing as the second most populous
| center in the world would not be at
fected. In other words, the number o.
immigrants and their children residen'
| in New York Is almost equal to tn'
| combined populations OF Paris ant
Philadelphia and greater than TN
combined populations Of Chicago ant
Berlin. :.
Three people out Of every four Il
the great metropolis were born unde
alien flags or are the children OF tn
foreign born. But. who that ma
studied the situation can gainsay Ne'
York's Americanism?

TIPS FOR The
POULTRY GROWER

Do not kill the laying hen.
= Separate the good layers from the

to market.
! Progress in all breeding Is based on
selection.
Apply selection to your poultry.
Keep the best and breed from them
and watch the Improvements.
Keep the hustlersEthose that are
on the range early and 60 to roost
with full crops.
The good layer is active. She is q
hustler for worms and bugs. She has
a bright red comb and bright eye.
The plumage Of the good layer is
usually much more broken up than
the plumage Of the poor layer.
The high-egg-yield hens are usually
late to moult. They may also have
pale or faded shanks and beaks.
The pelvic bones, or lay-bones, OF
the laying hen are far enough apart
80 that three fingers can be placed be
tween them. These two bones can DC
felt, one or each side OF the vent
somewhere above the vent.
The good layer has thin. pliable pei
vic bones.
There should not be less than three
,or four fingers distance from the pei

themselves alive. ID In many instances

Early Use Of Coal.

Though wood and turf formed the

even prior to the Roman occupation,
made use of coal. But as it was pos

not make Roadway for many centuries.
