The conference considered also thC
probability of instaliment payments and
interest of a bonded debt of ST, 5000

A cheaper grade of flour is used than
that which can be secured at the
same price together with the neces-
sary baking powder by the house
wife by purchasing the ingredients
separately. No filler, such as cali
cum sulphate or gypsum, is used in
any baking powder. The housewife
desiring a pure, trustworthy prod
uet which will not ceEeriorate rapid
ly will, therefore, cease to buy these
self-rising lours.
There is unquestionably a large
amount of spoilage in self-rising
flour taking place that is discovered
only in the home in poor-quality bis
cults, and which thus escapes pub
lie notice. If, however, statistics
could be compiled showing the ex-
tent to which self-rising flour de-
teriorates as compared with straight
wheat flour, the totals would he so
great as to arouse a cry against the
manufacture and sale of this article
which would be heard from coast to

DRINK A GLASS
OF REAL HOT WATER
BEFORE BREAKFAST.
Says we will both look and feel
clean, sweet and fresh
and avoid Illness

Sanitary science has Of late made
rapid strides with results that are of
untold blessing to humanity. The lat
est application of its untiring research
Is the recommendation that 1t is as
necessary to attend to internal santa
ton Of the drainage system Of the hui
man body as it is to the drains Of the
house.
Those OF us who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom-
ach, can, instead, feel as fresh as q
daisy by opening the sluices Of the sys-
tenn each morning and flushing out the
whole Of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
well, should, each morning before
breakfast, drink glass Of real hot
water with teaspoonful Of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the stom-
ach, liver and bowels the previous
days indigestible waste, sour bile and
poisonous toxins; thus cleansing,
sweetening and purifying the entire
alfmentary canal before putting more
food into the stomach. The action OF
hot water and limestone phosphate on
an empty stomach is wonderfully in
MIGRATING. It cleans out all the sour
lamentations, gases, waste and acidity
and gives one splendid appetite for
breakfast. While you are enjoying
your breakfast the phosphated hot
water is quietly extracting large vol
ume of water from the blood and get
ting ready for thorough flushing Of
all the inside organs.
The millions of people who are both
cred with constipation, bilious spells,
stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness;
others who have sallow skins, blood
disorders and sickly compilations are
urged to get q quarter pound Of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store.
This viii cost very little, but is sum

COMMON SENSE.
From The Journal of the Florida
Medical Association.

From The Journal of the Florida
Medical Association.
The conservation of natural re-
sources in the United States has been
accorded great deal of attention
in the past few years. "Conserva-
ton" was originally urged with ref
erence to our forests, waterpoweI
and mineral resources, but has of
late come to be considered in all its
details with reference to food sup
plies. The preservation of fruits,
canning Of meats, and the proper
storage of fruits, vegetables and
eggs are not only widely practiced,
but 1t is deeply studied question.
The preservation Of flavors is now
being studied by our food commits
sioners. It is the object of these
Investigations to ascertain the best
conditions for the preservation of
food and to eliminate every condi-
ton tending toward spoilage or
waste.
Nevertheless, one great industry
has recently been developed which
produces an unnecessary product
more liable to deterioration and
spoilage than the products from
which it is prepared. It's only hui
man appeal is to laziness. We speak
of the manufacture of self-raising
flour. As is well known, self-rais-
ing flour consists of nothing more
than certain baking powder ingredi-
ents, such as phosphate and soda,
added to flour, together with a lit
tie salt. The phosphate thus used
is generally adulterated with from
3 to Is per cent of gypsum, other
wise known as calcium sulphate. The
keeping qualities of this self-rising
flour depend upon the keeping quail
tiles of the baking powder mate
rails incorporated therein. Whereas
baking powders are made with su-
per-dried starch, containing from 2
to z per cent of moisture, and are
sold IN tin cans which protect the
product from the moisture of the at
mosphere, flour contains from 10 to
Ii per cent of moisture and is gen
orally sold in bags, open to the ac-
cess of atmospheric moisture. We
can then see that the keeping quail
ties of self-rising flour are far in
ferior to those of baking powder.
In this connection, it should be fur
Their noted that phosphate baking
powders retain their strength for a
shorter length of time than any
other baking powder, and it is the
phosphate type of powder that is
used in self-rising flour.
1t is well known that, if kept at
proper temperature, flour can be
conserved from year to
year. This is not the case with self
rising flours. The housewife who
buys an ordinary flour makes a self
rising flour out of it as soon as she
adds or mixes Herewith a little bak-
ing powder. This task requires but
little labor. She has thus produced
4 self-rising flour which is sure in
It's results. This is not the case with
self-rising flours produced for sale.

the whole rear annex of the Y. w.

scription. A distribution of these
garments will be made in the near
future, but not, until the commits
sion has had chance to investigate
the worthiness of those seeking the

peace conditions and the resulting in
sistance of public sentiment upon
release from war time restrictions
These advantages have been lost.
The fact that there IS still
shortage in rail transportation is due.
10 the condition that the amount OF
business offering is far in excess Of
the transportation facilities OF the
country.
This always has been true in this
country in times of heavy business in
the autumn months except last year
when the matter could be and was
controlled with an iron hand with
view solely to war necessities. At
the same time railroad facilities have
not expanded the extent required in
the public interest.
Even prior to the war, railroad ia
cilities cannot equal the demands.
During the war the addition of new
facilities was greatly restricted by
the scarcity of material and labor
Since the war, it has been impossible
to enter upon or carry out any ex-
tensive program for enlargement of
railroad capacity, because of the un-
certainty as to the status of the rail
roads
The railroad administration was
net provided with the money and !
therefore could not originate or car
ry out any such programs.
The railroad companies in view of |
the uncertainty were unwilling to
provide the money. The result is that
the railroad facilities of the country
rae decidedly below what the traffic
demands
Nevertheless the maximum traf-
fic is being handled and this being
done with less shortage of transpor-
tation than manifested itself at times
in the pre-war period particular at
tention is being paid by the railroad
administration in furnishing neces-'
sary equipment for the transportation
of coal and grain. 1t was decided
early in September that in order to
meet the coal requirements of the
country, it would be necessary for
the railroads to move a minimum of
100000 tons of bituminous coal a
week. For the week ended Septem-
Der 19, 11,O46,O0O tons were trans
ported.
For the week ending September o.
11,24SOOO tons were transported and
for the week ending September 27,
the railroad administration estimat-
ed that approximately 11,575,0 900 tons
were transported. Conditions have
developed which have made it nee
essary to handle the wheat situation
in an emergency.
This situation has been complicat-
ed by the fact that many of the ele-
vators are full and it has been i'm +
practical to move additional wheat to
points where the elevators are full, Il
because to do SO would cause large
of railroad cars to be filled
with grain which could not be dis
posed of at destination and this
would result in practically taking
such cars out of the transportation
service and using them for storage
and depriving the public generally of n
,ars which are badly needed for bust n
ness Of every sort The railroad ad- &
is following this matter S
'igorously in consulting with the k
rain corporation and the director
General will consider this matter per
onally at meeting of interested
