START MUNICIPAL AND
TOWN IMPROVEMENTS
Department Of Labor Urges
Wage Farmers to In
Ruence Legislators

use your influence with your
city fathers, your selectmen, and
other town officers to start at once
municipal and town improve
ments." This is the message which
the Department of Labor is send
ing to wage workers throughout
the country.
The Secretary of Labor, Hon. W.
B. Wilson. has no fear as to con-
ditions after the readjustment
period is over. He believes that
then everything will take care of
itself. He further is optimistic
even as to the readjustment period
if states, cities, and towns will now
commence public works to take
care of the labor slack which may
exist during the readjustment per-
iod.
He is therefore urging the wage
earners of the country to use their
influence in their own communities
to have school houses, engine
houses, roads, canals, and other
improvements begun at once. Such
improvements are beneficial to
everyone, can easily be financed,
and offer the greatest opportuni-
ties for all classes of labor.
Boston, even before the an
nouncement of the Federal Govern
ment's reconstruction building
program, had under way a hous-
ing plan aimed to demolish the
city's slums and to relieve con-
gestion as much as possible. The
situation is complicated in that
city by the high fares on the street
railway system, which tend to keer
workers massed near the places
where they are employed.
Several other cities were also
contemplating housing programs
on considerable scale when the
Department of Labor made it's plar
public.

Selling the Family
Its Own Preserves

A visitor who was helping a
friend prepare dinner saw her take
jar of homemade preserves out
of the pantry and then immediate
ly stick thrift stamp on a thrift
card hung on the inside of the pan
try door.
"What on earth are you doing ?"
said the friend.
81 am selling the family it's own
preserves, and it is the only way
to make home canning save for you
in actual money.
"Last summer | put up over
three hundred jars of preserves
and cans of vegetables. l bought
the fruit, the sugar, and extra jars
and rings and paid for them.
"In the fall l began to serve
these fruits and vegetables. AS a
result, we should have been spend
ing less money for food than we
did in other months when we
bought all our canned stuff from
the store, but / found that | was
counting my own home made stuff

To Americans lettuce has be-
come the great leaf vegetable for
salads. Throughout the year it is
grown in some part or other of the
country and shipped from great
distances to our tables. 1t is grown
under square miles Of glass near
the great cities and at consider
able expense for coa.. 1t is esti-
mated that 40,2OO tons of lettuce
is grown under glass every year,
aind that the value of this product
is $9,648,O0O.
Petsai can be grown throughout
the whole United States. It pos
.sesses not only all the good food
qualities Of lettuce but also it has
the advantage of being more eco
nomically groWn-about one-half
the cost of lettuce-by reason OF
its heavier yield This feature
alone should recommend it during
these times.

$25 from New York to Washington
Later the routes will be extended
to include other cities. Contracts
for conveying light valuable
freight have already been made.

BIG WAR saw
INGS STAMPS SOON
TO BE ISSUED
Come in Denominations Of
500 and Pay Usual
Rate of Interest

The big War Savings Stamps
will soon be issued.
These stamps, in denominations
of 500, are to be issued shortly by
1.-THE Treasury Department and will
be sold on the same relative terms
as the S. War Savings Certificates,
| of which the people have already
bought more than a billion dollars
worth.
The new stamps, which are now
on the Government presses at
Washington, will cost $500 if
bought during February, the price
increasing twenty cents each
month until the end of the year.
They are redeemable for 500 on
|January l, 1924. The stamp will
| be about the size of the 500 bond
of the Fourth Liberty Loan.
The Government ruling that no
person can hold more than $1,000 of
War Savings Stamps of any single
issue is still in force. On February
, the price of the stamps increas-
ed one cent to S4.15. Thrift Stamps
bought last year are good for 1919
War Savings Stamps.
Decision TO issue the 500
stamps was reached by officials of
the Treasury Department as the
result Of suggestions by investors
in W. S. S. who said they found it
LrkSOme to amass a lot of So
stamps and paste them upon GER
tificates. They said that in their
lopinion investors of $100 or more
at one time should be given equal
Encouragement as those who pur-
chased twenty-five cent Thrift
Stamps or S5 w. S. S. Heads OF
households may procure $1,OOC
worth of w. S. S. for every mem.
ber, but not more than this amount
for each individual during any one
year. The w. S. S. is really short
term discount bond, which may be
converted into cash at the optior
of the holder, and is thus an ex
cellent form of security for invest
ors who are more or less doubtful
as to the feature, and feel they can
not afford to tie up their money
in other investments. Four PEI
cent interest, compounded quarter
", is paid upon the w. S. S
whether it be a 500 stamp or ;
S. stamp, and both types of bone
mature within five years of th'
date Of purchase.

Petsai, Substitute
for Head Lettuce

The poet who said, "What's in
name?" evidently had no idea
that, insofar as the important mat
ter of food is concerned, prejudice
could be aroused to such a point
as to cause mental aversion to,
if not a positive condemnation of,
a really delicate article of. diet.
Take the case of the Chinese cab
bage, for example. Instinctively
the gourmet shudders at the at
tempt to ciate that name with
a delicacy. Call it petsai (the
Chinese name for it) and most
probably his prejudice will change
to desire; he will try it; like it.
Petsai was introduced by the
United States Department of Agri-
culture from China. 1t is now
grown in considerable quantities
in Illinois, New Jersey, California,
and other sections.
The testimony of unprejudiced
people who have eaten petsai is all
in its favor, and many who have
eaten chop suey and liked it, not
knowing of what it is composed,
unwittingly have held a brief for
petsai-one of the staple ingredi-
ents of that well-known and much.

NEW JERSEY FARMER FIGURES IT OUT
Tells MINIMUM COST AT WHICH THEY MAY BE
SOLD WITH PROFIT

ing and harvesting of the crop.
Gamers are in his state likely to
offer only sos per ton.
The price of IL cent a pound
may seem high to farmers who in
past years have sold for less than
half as much, but a farmer must
now consider a price not by its
size but by the margin above
cost of production. There is no
reason why the grower should not
figure on the same basis as the
manufacturer. The Gamer who
buys these tomatoes will figure out
his cost, include overhead, allow
a good sum for depreciation and a
wide margin of profit. That is his
cost and he will not do business
unless he can get all of it and a
profit. No one blames him for
looking out for his own interests
and he has no right to blame the
farmer for figuring the same way
Before the cost of production was
figured out, many farmers kept
their business going through the
unpaid labor of women and chill
dren. A good share of their unpaid
labor simply helped to support g
lot of useless middlemen. Farm,
ers are now awake to the fact that
they must agree on a cost of pro,
duction and then stand out for 6
price which gives them that cost
and profit.

capita. Sussex invested 3 cents per
capita and New Castle 2 cents.
Total sales for Kent amounted to

"OWN 4 NEW HOME"
SAYS EMERGENCY
FLEET CORPORATION
Offers New Houses to Hog
Island Force at Reason
able Terms

Gown a New Home" is the
slogan of the Emergency Fleet
Corporation in Philadelphia, where
it is in that way backing up the
campaign of the Department of
Labor and other governmental
organizations to encourage work
ers to build houses for their own
use.
The local condition in Philadel-
phia is unusual, for there a great
deal of building was done for the
Improvement of housing conditions
during the war. Unlike most cities,
housing has to some degree kept
pace with the growth of popula-
tion, and therefore the matter of
building is less important than in
the average locality.
Houses already put up, however,
are being offered to members of
the force at Hog Island at less than
their actual cost, in order to en-
courage the men to become owners
Of their own homes. The houses are
located within convenient distance
of the shipyard and are of approv-
ed construction, with all modern
, improvements. The prices range
from $4,000 to about $3,400. The
Fleet Corporation will take back
as part payment a first mortgage
for about 60 per cent of the sale
price, and the difference between
the first mortgage and the cash
payment will be arranged through
building and loan associations for
the convenience of the purchaser.
In general, prices and terms are
such that it will be cheaper to buy
than to pay rent.

The cost Of raising tomatoes on
. eH-acra farm, carefully computed
.r,.a a time sheet kept for a part
~ .a.t year, is set forth by A. II.
r.r-vthe Of Gloucester County, n,
l. in a recent issue of The Rural
New Yorker.
Tie gives an interesting study of
n farms in his county showing
that the average tonnage was SO
ton+ per acre for last year and As
tons was the five year average.
Last years average cost was
>2@.33 per acre; the 512 ton yield
would cost $28 per acre.
Referring to his own farm, he
states at the beginning that his
Ground is much better than the
average because it has been kept
in sod more consequently he gets
a large yield at less cost than the
average yet when figured on an
average crop it is costing him close
to $50 per ton. Last years crop
was particularly heavy averaging
70 tons per acre, at a cost of
SIQ.36 per acre; a 612 ton yield
would therefore cost S23.55 per
acre.
An itemized account included
cost Of plants, baskets, fertilizer,
SPRAYING materials, man and horse
labor, land rent, interest on money,
hauling, picking, time lost at cam
ming house, supervision and every
expense that enters INTO the grow
