CONDITION OF FEET
OF BIG IMPORTANCE
Well-Fitting Shoes Are OF First
Consideration.

CBy United States Public Health service)
The pleasures OF walking or stand
ing depends to a large extent on the
condition OF the feet.
The importance Of well-fittlng shoes
cannot he over-estimated. The shoes
should have heavy soles, moderate
heels. and he neither tight nor loose
A laced shoe is best under ordinary
circumstances, but in certain occupa-
tions where changes may have to be
made quickly. n congress Gaiter meets
conditions best.
New and stiff shoes are almost sure
TO be very uncomfortable; shoes should
be worn sufficiently beforehand so
that they will adapt themselves TO the
shape OF the wearer's feet and be
comfortable.
All hose should be long enough to
give the toes free play. Great care
should be taken TO have all darns
smooth
After the days work the feet should
he carefully washed and dried. Air
the hose so as TO have them dry when
they are to he put on again. The
shoes should be placed so that they
can be well dried out before replac-
Ing on the feet.
II the feet are swollen or hot, or
tend to he sensitive (tender), wash
them in salt water or rub with medi-
Gated alcohol and dry before putting
on hose. Dust with talcum powder
and put some OF the powder on the
hose and into the shoes.

DON'T USE CANNING POWDERS
Their Excessive Use May Be Attended
With Serious Effects-Nc Good
Reason for Risk.

In some communities there Is a
widespread use of canning powder.
Both boric and salicylic acid are
bought from druggists for this pur-
pose. Large quantities of these acids
are also sold at n high price under
fanciful canning compound names.
The United States department of
agriculture warns against the use OF
any preserving powder or canning
compound Their use may be attended
with serious effects upon digestion and
health. 1t is entirely practicable to
put up" fruits and vegetables. so that
they will keep indefinitely by process
ing the products with heat. There Is
no reason for taking the risk of using
canning powders.

food. simple pleasures and simple
clothes. II we all pull together we
may hope to help conditions. The
consumer must help to see that the
farmer gets reasonable prices for his
products and he must endeavor to help
the government to protect the con-
sumer from the extortion of unscrupu-
lous spectators. The great hue and
cry of the people that the farmer Is
profiteering would cease II those who
make 1t understood the real fact that
the farmer Is the poorest paid worker
In this country; he averages IL cents
an hour. When the farmer strikes
and refuses TO sell or produce except
for his own use we may appreciate
something of the burden he has borne.
Food carefully served, nicely pre-
pared and garnished is much more ap-
petizing than carelessly prepared food
and thus there is less waste. Sauces.
seasonings and various garnishes are
important food adjuncts.
One need not be niggardly or par
simonious in serving food. The chill
dren should have plenty of plain food
much as an adult. The following sug-
gestions were given us during the war,
but they are as necessary now with
nearly everything higher in price than
two years ago:
Pack eggs before the fall prices
make such packing too expensive. The
sterile egg keeps much better than the
fertile. In some states the splendid
custom of having n cockerel day and
killing off all surplus stock is one to
be recommended TO every state in the
Union. Eggs packed in one part of
water-glass to ten parts of water VIII
keep Indefinitely. Boil the water, cool
it, add the water-glass. Thirty or 4orty
cents worth will cover "a dozen eggs
Don't order more perishable foods
than can be wisely used. Plan meals
ahead TO avoid waste and by order
ing ahead it helps you, the butche
and the groceryman.

USE LESS SUGAR
FOR Good JELLY
Canning Experts Of United States
Department Of Agriculture
Give Suggestions.
PROPER QUANTITY OF JUICE
Among Other Materials Which Can
Be Used for Sweetenina Are Honey,
Maple sIrup, Corn Sugar, Mo
lasses and Other Sirups.

A good jelly should be bright, clear,
and of an attractive color. When
removed from the glass 1t should re-
tain the shape of the mold. Jelly
Of the right consistency can be cut
with distinct cleavage. retaining the
angles where cut. 1t should sparkle
and be tender enough to culver with
out breaking.
Wash the fruits. remove stems, and
cut large fruits into pieces. With ber-
ries, grapes, and currants add one
cupful of water for each pound OF
fruit. For apples. ounces, and other
hard fruits add three cupfuls OF wa
ter to each pound of sliced fruit. Cook
until tender. Fruit juices flow more
freely when heated.
AS soon as the fruit is tender 1t
should be put into jelly bag ana al
lowed to drip. II the fruit is over
cooked. n cloudy jelly is apt TO result.
Can Be Made With Less Sugar.
Good jellles can be made with much
less sugar than many housekeepers
thought possible a few years ago.
Some persons like these products
made with less sugar better than the
old-fashioned kinds that were some
times so sweet that the flavor Of
the fruit was spoiled. Canning ex-
perts of the United States depart
ment of agriculture give the follow
Ing suggestions for using sugar eco
nOmlcally:
Reduce the amount OF sugar or
dinarily used by one-fifth or one
fourth-that is, use four-fifths, or
three-fourths cupful of sugar instead
of the whole cup called for in the
recipe. In the case of non-acid fruits
The Colorado statesman., 1920-09-25

particularly, the absence of sugar will
be less noticeable IL one-fourth tea
spoonful of salt is added for each
cupful of fruit juice. The salty taste
will disappear after the product has
stood for few weeks, but the favor
will be richer than If the salt were
not used.
Another way to save sugar is to
substitute for part of the granulated
sugar called for in the recipe, honey.
maple slrup, corn sugar. molasses, the
new malt sirups, which are superior
to those formerly on the market, or
one of the other sirups sold under
various trade names. Some of these
sweeteners have distinctive flavor.
and at first II may be best to use
those only with fruits that have
pronounced flavor of their own, such
as grapes, cranberries, plums, cur
rnnts, and loganberries.
Quantity Of Juice for Jelly.
About two quarts of juice boiled
rapidly In shallow pan gives jelly
with better color and consistency.
When the proportion of sugar to
juice has been determined measure
the fruit juice and place over the fire
to cook When the juice begins to
boil add the sugar Immediately and
stir until the sugar is dissolved. When
the sugar is dissolved cook the juice
as rapidly as possible. Long, slow
cooking tends to darken the product
and to destroy the pectin, which viii
cause the jelly to be less firm.
A good means of determining when
the cooking is finished is to test the
Juice with spoon or paddle. Dip
the spoon in the boiling slrup, re
move, cool by moving 1t back and
forth for few seconds, and then al
low the jelly to drip from 1t. AS
long as there is sirup present, 1t Will
run from the spoon. When the Jelly
point Is reached. it will break from
the spoon In flakes or sheets. Remove
from the fire Immediately and skim.
Swimming at this time saves waste.
After sklmming pour at once into hot.
scalded glasses and set aside to COOL
Cool as rapidly as possible.

The vanilla bean is contained in the
pod or fruit of one of the orchids, a
vine with spikes of large fragrant

leo, South America and Asia. The
flavor is so generally liked that the
demand far exceeds the supply and
other fiavors similar to vanilla are
used as it is becoming more and more
scarce.
In China the Canton ginger Is fa.

The active principle of horseradlsh,
It's volatile oil, is identical with Its
near relative, mustard. Horseradish
while popularity considered merely a
condiment, Is used incidentally. 1t Is
so beneficial and stimulating to the
digestive organs that 1t is often pre-
scribed as a tonic to create appetite
when general rundown condition
prevails. 1t is considered an excellent
blood purifier and good for the kid
neys. Mixed with honey it is most
efficacious cough remedy.
Ginger and horseradish are the
chief representatives of the root stock
type. These roots are known and
grown in both hemispheres. The Amer
ican colonies inherited the old Dutch
and English uses of both for seasoning
meats, pickles and the ginger root In
preserves, sweetmeats. cakes and for
medicinal uses.
