use varies greatly in different vcgeta-

: In string beans 7 per cent is lost in
preparing them; in onions, cabbage,
leeks, lettuce and cucumberS, 10 to 10
per cent is lost, while beans in the
pod, pumpkins-and squash lose. 90 per
cent With tubers such as potatoes.
the average amount of refuse is 20 per

worth while to practice and is an easy,
way to decrease loss.

Addition to Brazii's Wealth.

The commercial life of Para, Brazil,
depends so essentially on the market
ing of forest products that every effort
is being made TO advertise the value
of q common native plant called AN
hinga." In the soft beds of mud that
line so many Of the states sluggish
rivers, the plant grows so profusely
that an estimated total Of 100000 tons
could be exported annually. The an
hinga is now known as the raw mate
rial from which cellulOse is obtained
for the manufacture of linen paper;
but recent experiments show that the
fibers may be transformed chemically
into an artificial cotton fiber, of struc-
ture even superior TO that of the genu-
inc article. One mill is now busy with
this new work, while efforts are being
made to adapt abandoned sugar mills
to the process.-Popular Mechanics

Many rural women have been in
need Of simple instructions in the
making of household conveniences, la
bor-saving devices. and making of
small articles for sale, in order to in
crease the family income. The in
structions in rug making, making of
baskets, brooms, etc., given TO the girls
by the home-demOnstration agents
have also, at many places, been given
to the women, resulting in the promo
ton of home industries and increased
earnings. This added income has
mainly been used to improve the home
or to assist the Red Cross. In several
instances the women, who have saved
enough from such earnings to pur-
chase the needed furniture, have in.
stead given it to the Red Cross.

Shakespeare Down to Date.

Justice Wayne, dramatic actress,
finds an explanation of the question as
to why Shakespearian, plays seldom
win financial reward in what she
terms Shakespeare's inability to give
his productions catchy titles. She sug-
gests a repertoire of the bard's plays
rechristened to meet popular demands
for stimulating titles. She suggests
How Could You, aJuliet?" as more ap-
propriate than plain Romeo and
Juliet" She also would substitute
Call of the Flesh for "rhe Merchant

"Othello; "The NIFTY Princess" for
