tion of the housewife. But times have changed. The national food producer now cooks our pork and beans to per- lection in a sanitary factory. The housewife need only heat the can in the oven or in kettle of water to have pork and beans fit for king. The long cooking under pressure insures the thorough cooking of the starch, the separation of the cellulose cells and consequent liberation of the valuable protein.
 Beans are used for their protein and are one of the chief vegetables which take the place of meat in the diet. Scientists are agreed that when thoroughly cooked, beans as a source of protein are quite as valuable as meat. Since they are very much less expensive to raise, we should learn to use them instead of meat more fre- quently than we do.

 We are told that one-fifth or the energy requirements of the average person in this country is met by eating sugar We not only like the taste Of sugar on certain foods but our bodies use sugar just as the engine makes use of coal and without it's supply could do no work.
 Of all the substitutes we are called upon to use during our recent conserv- ation campaign. nothing has more ably supplied the needs of the body and at the same time satisfied the craving for sweets as have molasses and sy- rup.
 Molasses contains large amount of gar in almost any, cooking or baking recipe.
 The quantity and uniformity of the product is designated by the nationally known name on the can. The contin- ued need of conserving makes 1t most desirable for every housewife to elim- mate speculation in the matter of the food she buys. The quality label on package assures satisfaction. Satisfactory cakes, buildings and pudding sauces. frostings and candies, are made from either molasses or sy- rup product; let alone it's addition to the popular "baked beans,' which is never just right without cup of mo- lasses.

TENANT WOULD HAVE BEEN SAT.
ISFIED WITH FOURTH

Many little Incidents growing out of
the high price of tobacco are reported
most every day on the Maysville to-
bacco market. Monday a tenants crop
of tobacco was sold at one of the
warehouses. The landlord happened
to be present at the sale but the ten
ant was not. The landlord received a
check for his half of the crop and left
check for the tenants half at the
house. The tenant was here Tuesday
and procured his check, The was so
large that he thought the warehouse
had made the entire amount to him
and he at once started on the hunt Of
the landlord to divide Paramount The
agreeable surprise of the tenant was
plainly visible on his face when the
landlord told him he had collected his
part of the crop and the entire check
war for the tenant.

elgn Nations.

The month of October, 1918, was an
active period for the exporters Of leaf
tobacco and its manufactured pro-
ducts in the United States, shipments
to foreign countries showing mater
ial gains in every branch of the in
dustry, with the exception of plug to-
bacco and stems and trimmings. Leaf
tobacco alone increased 11,132,424
pounds, or 80 per cent, over the cor
responding month last year, due
largely to the heavier expectation to
France, Great Britain, Sweden, China
and Australia. 1t is interesting to
note, in this connection, that while the
volume Of trade was 8 per cent. great
er, the total value of leaf shipments
increased $7,763,S45 or 176 per cent.
Other comparisons for the month Of
October included an increase of 346,-
667 900, or 4S per cent, in cigarette
shipments; an increase of $4,000, or
"a per cent. in cigars and cheroots; a
decrease of S6,301 pounds, or Is per
cent. in plug tobacco, and an increase
Of 271,49S pounds, or 112 per cent. in
smoking tobacco. The total value Of
all tobacco and its products exported
In October was $S,671,135, or 146 per
cent greater than that reported for
the same month of 1917.
The report for nine months Of 1918,
ended with October, reveals the fol-
lowing comparisons in contrast with
the corresponding period of the pre-
ceding year: eLaf tobacco increased
135,172,746 pounds, or 66 per cent:
stems and trimmings decreased 87,41O,
