REDFIELD OUTLINES
PROGRAM TO BRING
HIGH PRICES DOWN

Washington, Feb. 26.-ln a state
ment explaining the origin OF the
industrial board Of the department
OF commerce, charged with the task
OF attempting to readjust and bring
down prices, Secretary Red6eld de-
clares there exists an abnormal sit
uation and stagnation in the indus
trial world, the striking feature OF
which is the high price demanded
for nearly every article of trade.
The first step OF the governments
program, Secretary Red6eld said.
will be the calling into conference
of the representatives of industries
producing basic materials, at which
the situation can be discussed from
every angle. Industries dealing in
unfinished products, the secretary
thinks, will be able, largely, il not
entirely, to adjust their prices in
line with the policy laid down a,
meetings with producers.

AVsrice.

Avarice begets more vices than
Priam did children, and, like Priam,
survives them all. 1t staryes its keeper
to surfeit those who wish him dead :
and makes him submit to more morti-
ficatlons to lose heaven than the mar
tyr undergoes to gain it. Avarice is a
passion full Of paradox, madness full
of method; for although the miser is
the most mercenary Of all beings, yet
he serves the worst master more
faithfully than some Christians do the
best. and will take nothing for it. He
falls down and worships the god Of
this world, but win have neither its
pomps. its vanlties, nor its pleasure for
his trouble. He begins TO accumulate
treasure as a means to happiness and
by common but morbid association
he continues to accumulate IL as an
end. He lives poor to die rich, and is
the mere iailer OF his house and the
turnkey Of his weath.-C. G. Cotton.

Dried Vegetable Value.

1t is by no means certain that dried
vegetables possess the same nutriment
value as vegetables that have not been
dried. Prof. Philip b. Hawk of Jeffer-
son Medical college, Philadelphia, notes
in Science a phenomenon that was
called TO his attention by Charles Den
by Of the war trade board and Daniel
Moreau Barringer, which suggests that
some hitherto unsupported structural
change takes place in vegetables when
they are dried.
II is well known that when dried
vegetables are immersed in water for
a few hours they assure a form close
" resembling that of fresh vegetables.
Yet If this swollen vegetable be left at
room temperature for from "a to 80
hours 1t returns to its dried state, in
other words, a fresh vegetable holds
its water much more tenaciously than
does a dried vegetable that has been
immersed in water.
