FINE THING, THE BURDOCK
Has Uses ms n FoOdstuff, and Pro.
duces Excealant OIL

Chemists have been upsetting the
natural order of things nightly the past
few years, for the war stimulated man
kind to find substitutes for products that
had long been available In abundance.
Everywhere the cry for fats and more
fats has been heard these many months,
one result being that butter substitutes
have become as familiar to the aver.
age housewife as they had been I'M
known. Nut buffers a-plenty there are
and vegetable oils multiply as the
months pass 1t is an oil chemist of the
North Carolina department Of agri-
culture who has found that the cookie
bur, or burdock, has uses as foodstuff
that are bound to overcome the dislike
people in general have for this pest.
which attaches itself willy-nilly to
clothes.
The cookie bur or clot bur. which is
another name for the burdock. is to
help out the making Of paints and var
nishes. as well as foodstuffs for man and
beast. according to L. B. Rhodes. In
explaining his find to the members Of
the North Carolina section Of the Ameri-
can Chemical society in Raleigh a short
time since. he showed the oil obtained
from the bur; 1t is of a light yellow
color. has a clear. sparkling appearance.
a pleasant odor, and an agreeable nutty
taste. 1t does not become rancid and the
cake left after extracting the oil will
serve admirably as cattle food or as a
fertilizer.
And 1t Is from Kamerun, formerly a
German possession on the west coast of
Africa and now occupied by the British,
that there comes a new fat resembling
beef marrow fat in appearance and
quality. This is extracted from the fruit
Of a tree called "Ngaby." The refining
process is Of the simplest and crudest
| kind
With the coming of peace there is not
likely again to be a scarcity Of fats, for
the world is truly yielding her increase

In the Francis DeVincent case, taken
up Monday afternoon, r. e. Brown and

forth that the writ of habeas corpus filed

was not signed by the one for whom 1t
lnterceded, namely the child. lola May
DeVincent, or some one acting for her:
also because 1t was claimed the probate
