Tropical Ubi.

The ubi, or imitation vanilla, is a
curious tropical vegetable which is
more or less common product in mo 1t
of the south sea islands. 1t grows up
on poles or young trees or old brush
wood something after the manner "f
the lima bean of the temperate zone,
but more nearly resembles the true va
nilla of the tropics. 1t is prolific
bearer and yields an edible bean which
closely resembles the vanilla bean ex-
cept for the strong aroma Of the lat
ter, and 1t is sometimes used as an
adulterant Of the vanilla-that Is,
when the valuable vanilla beans are
punched for shipment few of the ubl
may be slipped in. AS the ubi Is sus-
ceptible to the slightest frost its cul-
ture has not been attempted In the
United States.

QUILTING ADDS TO BEAUTY
tiveness Of cIoaks, Coats, Gowns
and Millinery.

Along with the gorgeous peacock
feather as Il distinctive note In decor
ntive schemes for gowns, comes the
demurc trick of quilting In enhancing
the beauty Of cloaks, coats. gowns and
hats.
Taffetn silks, organdles and almost
all seasonable fabrics accept this
stitching prettily. II Is done in bands,
and when used on thin fabrics. band
of wash silk defines the line on the
under side. A gown of gray taffeta
has side panels done in stitching OF
the same shade In gray, IN a diamond
pattern.
These panels are on each side, and
between them are two big sunhowers
In yellow silk embroidery. The yoke
of the waist Is quilted, and on the
center Of the waist are two sunhowers
In the embroidery. Hat bands for the
sailors are shown In quilted silk and
satin. Collars for coats snd cloaks
are quilted.

HAS BUILT BOAT OF PLASTER
Good on New Theory Of Mate
rial for Vessels.

If boats can be made of concrete
there seems no inherent reason why
they cannot be made of plaster. In
fact, an inventor in Portland, Ore,
Mr.. ]. b. Lindberg, has actually made
"A plaster boat.
His boat is Is feet long and weighs
400 pounds. Its sides are three-quar.
tiers of an inch thick, and very strong
although only made of ordinary build
ing plaster. The boat is cheaper than
a wooden one, and the inventor be-
lieves it will last longer. Its aslvan-
tage over concrete craft is mainly
that of lightness.
The construction Is also much eaS-
ier, Mr.. Lindberg says, since the plas-
ter requires an inner and an outer
form to much less extent than the
concrete. In large part this lighter
material can be laid down over Il sin
gle form, much like a series of coats
of paint. Mr. Lindbergs boat has been
put In commission and seems to be
quite seaworthy and easily handled.

HOME GARDEN IS IMPORTANT
One Way to Have Food at Reasonable
Cost Is to Produce It in Your
Own Yard.

(By SECRETARY E. T. MEREDITH.
United States Department of Agr!cul-
ture.)
All discussion about the high cost Of
living aside, one way to have food at
a reasonable cost is to grow it in your
own yard.
The garden can't do 1t all: but It
can help wonderfully, especially with
such important necessaries as potatoes
and beans.
1t is true that the war taught Ameri-
cans the value Of home gardening.
While complete statistics of the pro-
ductiOn in gardens are lacking, 1t is
the belief of the department of agri-
culture and state workers In this field.
based on wide observation that more
food was produced in home gardens
last year than during the war year Of
1918.
The department of agriculture be-
lieves that many hundreds of thou
sands of people will share its view
at home in 1920, and that they will
welcome expert advice from time to
time.
The department is prepared 10 give
the public the benefit of its informa-
tion gathered by practical. scientific
publications that should be of value
to the experienced man as well as to
the beginner.

NEW USE FOR HUN HELMETS
English Town Has Found That sroiIs
of War Make Fairly Good
Road Material.

All manner of odd uses have been
found for German steel helmets.
Flower pots, cuspidors. indirect light
ing fixtures, wash basins-these and
many other uses have served to make
the German helmet a peacetime ad-
junct of some value.
Now comes the little town of Croy-
don, England, where much of the spOils
of war have been placed, with the sug-
gestiOn of using German steel helmets
as road material. In fact, this town.
ship as gone to work and made some
roads from German helmets with good
results, according to reports. The hei
NETS are arranged in position. after
which they are crushed up fine by a
heavy road roller. Tens of thousands
of these German helmets taken dur
ing the closing days of the war. serve
to pave an appreciable amount of road
surface. But after all. this is simply
'stunt" of questionable value.-Sci-

Discovery Of the Compass.

Ancient Chinese records would seem
to give the use of the magnetic needle
for determining direction long and
varied history. The principle of the
compass, or as the Chinese call it,
the sOuth-pointing chariot. is stated
by most Chinese authorities to have
been discovered during the reign of
Chong Wang, 11S5-1179 B. G. The
discovery was forgotten in few hun
dred years. Then the philosopher
Chang Hong, who died in 139 b. c..
reconstructed the device. In succeed
ing troubles his model was lost and
forgotten. From the third century
A. D. onward great interest was
shown by the Chinese sages in the al
lusiOns in old writings to the mystic
rious south-pointing chariot. Attempt
after attempt was made to solve the
riddle, and then we read in writings
of the eleventh century of the COM
pass being In use by mariners.
