or bronze of the great American would be
too cold and lifeless thing, however much
it might be admired as a work of art or
appreciated a tribute of respect to his
memory. Colonel Roosevelt was a man of
action. He possessed and created certain
high ideals of patriotism and always
preached civic and personal morality. The
sculptor's art might produce a monument
that would remind and future genera
tions of these virtues and recall his great
ness and the things he wrought But feel
certain that if Colonel Roosevelt could have
expressed his choice before death of the
memorial that was to be built for him it
would not have been fashioned out Of
block of granite or marble or been moulded
in metal. l feel that he would have sug-
gested something living something useful,
something for the good of the country he
loved and for his fellow citizens, whose in
terests he had at heart and fought for
Ny suggestion is that fund be collected
large enough to found and endow a school
for the propagation Of Roosevelt American
ism and the inculcation of the principles Of
patriotism and Of good and useful citizen
ship. This institution bearing the name
Of Mr.. Roosevelt would be useful and
lasting tribute to his memory and at the
same time help our people and those from
over the seas who may become part of
US live the life that he lived and advocated
and follow in the path of civic righteous
ness bazed by him.

Sir: Let the Roosevelt Memorial be a
thing Of beauty. That is of all things the
most enduring and the most inspiring. The
Tai Mahal is a memorial, and it is one of
the lights Of the ages. Have a really fine
equestrian statue, arch, splendid
tomb, and whatever is chosen, give the best
artists free hand in it's conception and
construction.
Roosevelt passionate lover of
beauty, with all his practical common sense
He disliked grotesque contortion, as all
healthy minds do, but he loved and under
stood true art and both physical and moral
beauty. Let US give him the one truly
vital and permanent memorial.

The Farmer No Hun

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: When little children at school used
to be called names by some other child
they were wont to come crying into the
schoolhouse, saying, Teacher, Johnnie
called me out of my name" but never in
history was any one so called out of his
name as the farmers when the term Huns"
was applied to them. If it were not for
the farmers Of this country District At
torney Swami, as we'll as the rest of the
world, would have had a chance before
this to find out what real Huns are When
the government and humanity called on
the farmers to raise more food, plant
more food save more food, the call found
them struggling against more handicaps
than ever before and facing each month
constantly increasing shortage of labor.
Yet they threw themselves into the task.
worked harder than they had ever worked,
and with their help much reduced or taken
away entirely they have raised the largest
crops ever known, thereby, as every one
acknowledges, perhaps even District Attor-
ney Swami himself, saving the world from
starvation and the Hun
am thinking especially of nv nearest
nelghbors, whose two sons were at home
on the farm when America entered the
war. Immediately the younger son enlisted.
The elder waited until he could be released
from the farm, and enlisted last summer.
The father sold most of his cows and re-
duced his farming to what he himself and
one not too efficient man could take care
Of. Just after the elder son went to camp
the younger was killed in action at Chateau
oft A.
and the father was left alone, with all the
fali harvesting to do. Help was unobtain-
able, yet the food raised must be saved
and so the mother, worn as she was with
her grief and anxiety, far from strong
and never very well, went out with her
husband and helped milk the cows, dig the
potatoes, gather the corn and thrash the
grain, all without one word of COMPLAINT
or bitterness. Do these people deserve to
be called Huns? Have their critics in the
city done more than they for the cause of
patriotism? Yet this is only one of MANY
many instances all over the farms of this
land. II the city men so prejudiced against
the farmers could change places with them
just for little while there would be no
need of appealing to the Governor or Leg
islature for adjustment.
The price of milk is high, Of course. T
shouldn't want to pay 16 cents a quart for
milk myself; but then l don't like to paw
double and treble the price I used to pay
for practically everything I buy, whether
at home or in New York. There are a
good many reasons why milk is so high.
but the cunning and effrontery of the
farmer" is not one of them. very big
reason, of course, is the increased cost of
production, the trebled price of feed, the
impossibility of getting sufficient help and
the enormous price that must be paid for
any help obtainable Another reason is
the fact that the New York dealers are
getting as much, lacking cents, for ship
ping and distributing every quart of milk
as the farmer gets for all the labor of pro-
ducing it. A COUNTRY WOMAN

CIR: II I could turn my love into action
~ and my grief into gold I'd build for
Theodore Roosevelt the kind of memorial
that | know he would have liked and I'd
call it the Happy Hunting Ground.
First, I'd find out in what part of this
country the most species of the best Ameri-
trees grow best and live longest Then
| would secure in that part of the country
a vast territory from which by folly and
greed the original forest had been stripped.
Then l would begin to plant. But mostly
I'd plant our Eastern oak, the white oak,
because in the strength and soundness and
splendor of his life the man himself most
resembled that tree. But I'd plant rare
trees, too, from all over the country and
from all over the world. I'd ask people
who loved him to contribute to this forest
little trees of the kind they loved the best,
and | should see starting each upon it's
separate destiny millions and millions Of
trees, young, gay and brilliant. Yet each
separate destiny would have a part in the
destiny of the whole. Branch touches
branch, the leaves fall, the forest floor is
muched and enriched, the leaders of the
trees reach upward, higher and higher
toward the light. So he reached upward
ever higher and higher, and so because of
him the nation began to look upward from
the shame and lcthargy into which it had
been befooled, and to reach upward, too,
toward the light.
I'd call it the Happy Hunting Ground,
because he was a mighty hunter and be-
that is just what it would be. The
man who loves birds could hunt for them
in this forest and watch them and study
them; SO it would be with the man who
loves trees, so with the flower lover and
the lover of ferns. There would be bear
and deer in the forest and fish in the
streams
Forever and ever such memorial would
grow more gracious and more beautiful,
more useful and more used, more enchant-
ing and more haunted.
No ready made primeval forest would do
me. There are things already created to
remember him by-things that he created
himself-the Panama Canal-the wish of
a whole people to be the whole little
squarer and little straighter than it had
ever been beforc-lots of things. But the
memorial which we ourselves must raise to
him ought, l think, to be a creation of
something good and bea ltiful, from the
ground up.
Statues get their fingers broken and their
noses worn smooth; fashions that seem
beautiful to one generation seem prepos-
ferrous to the next; true art is, indeed,
based upon nature, but only Nature herself
has the beauty which is eternal
| think he would like to be remembered
forever and ever in a Happy Hunting
Ground which was the creation of those
who lived in the same age with him and
who loved him, and which should become
the of the generations to whom he will
be a symbol of the Republic myth, a
fable, a romance and fairy story. and,
like Lincoln q human and a God-fearing
man.

With vows and holy promises.
If we break oaths
Let it be darkly
With threatening gestures.
Thus we ignore
That we love and die
Like insects.

And my heart turns home to the hills IN

And the little snug house on the bcason

While round me the golden leagues of the

Fats---One of the most serious prob lens of the great war was that or fats It is said that there were seV- eral thousand kinds of soap slIbst1- tutes submitted in various European countries while in our own country the only noticeable effect of shortage was the increased prices of bacon, lard, butter and soap.
 One of the good things that has come out of that shortage, and has come to stay, is the use of corn oil. In making starch from corn the fat must be removed. It has been found that when this fat or oil is properly refined it is one of the finest food fats ever discovered. To my mind 1t is far superior to olive oil for making salads and far superior to lard TOT fryfng and to butter for other cook inc. It gives a richer flavor to. the food and is more easily ddgested. Take the food known as potato chips; when they are fried in lard as they unusually are, a portion of the lard is burned with small particles of the tIinly cut potatoes and these small particles are made so hard that they have been properly named rock grease. Eaten with the other food they pass through the ahmentary canal undigested, and sometimes be- come a serious irritant.
 In cooking French fried potatoes we have the same results, although in a lesser degree. Doushnuts are an- | other food Of which we are all more i or less fond, and in this food we not | only have the rock grease, but so much of the lard is absorbed by the
 dough that many people dare not eat them at all
 l By cooking any of these foods in
 corn oil a much daintier and more
 palatable food is produced vkhout any of tho evil effects. The corn oil does not burn in the kettle or frying
 pan like lard or butter end for that
 reason alone, is much more desirable. It is not absorbed and cooked into
 the food to such an extent in frying
 as are other fats.
 i The Agricutude Department at Washington has conducted many ex- periments along the line of digest ibilty of foods and in testing fats it
 was found that the kinds with the lowest melting point were the most easily and readily digested-
 To illustrate, it requires more heat Ito melt mutton fat than lard and just
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-03-10

O little more to melt lard than butter Corn oil is already a refined liquid fat and requires no heat to make it digestible. It is, therefore, more readily digested than butter, lard or talIow. Butter and lard are about the same as far as digestibility is con cerne6, although some stomachs that will digest comparatively large quan- titles of butter cannot stand lard even in small quantities
 To my notion we have found tn the oil extracted from corn, one of the most valuable food products that has been put upon the market for many years. consider it equal, if not su- perior, to olive oil for any use to which olive oil has been put. The cost is far less and it can he produced in the north as well as in the south.
 The time is coming for mankind when animal fat will be a. thing of the past As man life increases an iInaI life decreases; therefore, man the animal with Q mind and creative better for food than the carcaSseS of dead animals.
 The wonders that are being devel- oped in the way of new foods, is as- tonishing even to those that are do ing the developing Man, the inven- tor, is always at work, slowly but surely climbing upward, but man, the ,, consumer, is much more slowly talk ing advantage of the work of the in ventor. It is hard to change the hab- its of the cook and it is necessary to demonstrate and prove all things Of a new kind in food unless as in the present case an emergency arises which couapels the use of materials that are better. Corn oil has been made and offered for sale for a large time. Through the high cost of ba- con we have learned how much better it Is.
