Consumption of Oranges Is
Increased by Juice Stands.

Attributing the large orange con-
sumption this season to the increased
demands made on the cEop by the thou
sands of orange juice stands that have
sprung up throughout the United
States in the last year, the Fruit World
says: "The worldwide shortage of
sugar, estimated at approximately q.
cOOOOO tons annually since the wal
began, has caused the restriction of
sugar consumption in the manufacture
of many of the popular drinks. This
he's increased the consumption of Or
anges this year and has created a
greater market activity in spite of the
aonormally high prices caused by the
crop shortage following the heat wave
one year ago last June. And so the or.
ange drink stands have alleviated the
demand on the sugar supply but also
have increased the demands on a short
ened orange crop"

motor trucks, no longer needed since
the signing of the armistice.
Each of these hospitals contains 100
beds and complete equipment except
for kitchen utensils. The buildings in
which these hospitals will be housed
I'm the Near East have been erected.
With the hospital equipment the COM
mittee will purchase large quantities of
medical supplies which have been
stored in France to safeguard the
health of American soldiers. These
supplies will be rushed to the Near
East from French port.
Careful surveys of the situation in
the Near East indicate that lack of
= transportation facilities is the chief
cause of famine. There is food enough
TO keep the inhabitants from starving,
but it cannot be distributed to supply
62S,000 square miles of country. There
are only 80 miles Of railroad. Conse-
quently there is plenty of food in some
sections of the country where food is
grown, but great distress in those
which are not self-supporting. In the
cities especially there is great need.
On one occasion wheat became so
scarce in a community in Persia that
the price increased 1,200 per cent

For this reason the committee iH'

count of the scarcity of soap and that
the population is ridden with sores.
Every day more moving appeals
come from distressed Armenia, Syria,
Persia and the Russian Caucasus.
Tens of thousands of people are as
gaunt and hungry as those gathered
around the dead horse in the accom-
panying picture. Many have been
without food for days. An Associated
Press dispatch from Salonika of re-
cent date December 16) reports that
of the 100000 Armenians depOrte!
by the Turks only 100000 survived
and that not more than one-fOurth of
the present Armenian population can
survive until the next harvest without
outside help.
Distressing as seem these reports.
it is encouraging to know that even
causes of advanced emaciation, such
as are shown in this illustration, read-
ly respond TO treatment With food
and medical care millions can be made
strong and healthy. Thirty million
dollars, the sum to be sought in the
January u to 10 drive, will help save
100000 lives. Considered only as an
investment, it should be worth while.

Picked Peppers.

For pepper lovers this will be worth
while using before the succulent green
vegetable is gone from our markets in
the North. For one-half peck of pep
pers scald two quarts of vinegar and a
scant cupful of salt Pour the hot
vinegar over the peppers three morn
ings in succession, using care that the
vinegar is not too hot or it softens the
peppers. Then seal in glass Jars. One
quart of peppers will make a pint
when picked.
If carrot or two is left and will
wither before being used, slice thinly
and put to dry in the warming oven.
A pinch of dry carrot win be a great
addition to many soups or sauces and
so easy to use in hurry.
