VALUE OF CEREALS.

Cereal and their products are in gen eral the cheapest sources or energy in food, although they differ g 'eatly in cost among themselves, says a bulletin from the state college of agriculture.
 There is little differerce n fuel value between whole cereal products and rc- fined products, but the whole cereal is superior as a source of seYetal imr ort- ant food substances.
 Cereals, however, are not as good . source of protein as tAei- compost or would indicate For this reason cereal. should be suppleme dtcd in the dict b! the more available pro:eirs furnished hS such foods as milk, eggs and meat When it comes to sources ot ash, con taining lime, phosphorous and iroE tht whole cereals are prob3hly twlc9 as val | uable as the refined cereals. As a source of iron, rolled oats como4res favorably with the whole wheat producers. 1 The whole grains and their product! are important sources of rolshage apt 1 of one of the importan: growths induc l ing substances.

BURRELL,s RESIGNATION,

By his action in sending his resigna- ton to the governor, F. J. Burrell, treas urer of the state of Massachusetts, has taken the very action that was called for in view of the disclosures that have been made in connection with his con- duct of that office and the use which he made of it in connection with his pri- vate business. It is not probable that Massachusetts will be a financial loser as the result of this treasurership but it is evident that no state and no party could tolerate such conduct of an office of that importance Had MT. Burrell followed the advice furnished about the time he was chosen for the office he would have avoided the situation into which he has fallen. When he under took to build up the business of his ad- vertising agency through the banks of the state where he had the authority to place funds of the state on deposit ne struck blow at his political fu-ure which he had no reason to expect was going to be overlooked or which lie could hope to gloss over

STILL A HITCH.

In connection with the recent temper ary lifting of the priority order on coal for New England because such coal was not being taken away rapidly enough to avoid congestion and the consequent ty- ing up of cars moving between mines and loading points, it is to be noted that there are those points in New England which are still maintaining that they are not receiving a sufficient amount of coal.
 It would thus appear to be a case where even though efforts have been made to insure a larger amount of fuel for this part of the country the means provided for it's transportation by wa ter has not been adequate. Not enough vessels are provided to satisfy the de- mand Or to take care of the coal as fast as it is presented at the loading ports
 The priority order served to bring about large increase in the amount oi coal being moved by water Even now many steam vessels and many more barges are being utilized for this pur. pose, but even following the suspension of the priority order for period of five days and the insistence that the coa needs of New England are not being me it is asserted that there are vessels kep waiting an unwarranted period of tim, before they can get cargoes for New En gland points.
 Such being the case there certainly i! something wrong somewhere. If all coa for New England is being sent to oni point and vessels for New England ar' seeking cargoes at other points wher, they cannot be supplies it is plainly dis closed that the best judgment is not be ing used in the getting of service iron the rail and water lines With pIent! of vessels there ought to be no difficult. in avoiding the congestion at the loadinI points and certainly with sufficient coa being provided and the demand greate | than the supply at hand in this part 0 the country coal carrying vessels ant 1 barges ought not to be forced to remail idle for lack of cargoes, and it ought no to be a very difficult job to get the coa or the vessels to the ports where reason

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Bald Hill in Town of Union.

MT Editor: I was interested in
 reading in the Putnam items de-
 scription of the high point called Bald
 Hill and the outlook therefrom, it being stated as being in Windham county and
 the town of Stafford. Looking up this
 point on the state geological map. there
 is a Bald Hill, east some six miles from
 Stafford Springs. in Holland county and town of Union. hei~ri given as 12S6 eet above sea level which I think must be the place relerred to. and with fine state road from Willimantic to Stafford ] Springs. The road from latter place to l the hill I am not acquainted with. pre- sumabiy unimproved country road, but if | the view is so far-reaching it would be worth while to get there and he best
 road for motorists looked up. From Putnam the way would most likely be | through Woodstock Valley or West ! Woodstock and North Ashford or per
 haps through Eastford and Westford
 Possibly your correspondent could en tighten us on this point. This leads
 me to say that if the motorists o different localities would make mention | of choice bits of scenic trips adjacen
 to their town, of good roads and near

SUGGESTIONS FOR

THE HOUSEWIFE Pies are always best made with pastry four.
 Chicken pie is excellent made with biscuit crust.
 Serve rice pudding cold with stewed fruits.
 rubber tooth brush is excellent when travelling.
 An old piano stool makes a good sew ing machine seat.
 Add a few seedless raisins to the pot of beef soup. Before marking handkerchiefs starcn and iron them.
 Scarfs of scrim will keep clean longer than linen scarfs.
 A zinc covering on the kitchen table saves lot of work. An excellent marmalade is composed of figs and rhubarb. Salt thrown on Goot which has fallen on the carpet will prevent a stain.
 Young fresh vegetables are always better for canning than the older ones Frozen salads are something uncom- mon and very much enjoyed in hot weather Swedish fruit soups consist of com I binations of fruit juices thickened witt tapioca. To clean screen doors wet a wooler cloth with kerosene and rub off thor oughly. A paper soaked in vinegar placed over newly made jam before putting or the cover will prevent its fernenting.

LODGING THE PROOF.

After having presented to the country charges of a serious nature, and charges which are denied under oath by those against whom they are made, Governor Cox. as candidate for president on the democratic ticket has undertaken tour Of the country which will carry him through = states without undertaking 10 present the evidence that will prove his assertions. And it is to be presumed that he intends to make full and free use of his allegations during this swing around the circle.
 There Is in all probability a belief on he part of the democratic candidate .n5t such a course is going to win for aim strong favor throughout the coun. rv. that there are going to be those of --ii- other party and those numbered as independents who are going to rush tc he support Of his standard because ot his resort to the practices of a ward politician.
 Strange as 1t may seem. Governor Coz apparently doesn't realize that hi 9ourse is going to prove dangerou! boomerang. From all the witnesses whC nave been called thus far there has beer nothing to warrant his claims. Every thing points directly to a false alarn and with him setting out to spread i over the country personally instead o furnishing the proof which he ha maintained he could there is furthe reason for believing that he realizes jus what baseless talk he has been indulginI in and carries the idea that the peopl arc going to accept it as such withou proof just because he has offered it. Al the witnesses that have been heard il his behalf have indicated that they knev nothing about the proof and if we ar 10 judge by the way in which Cox ha failed to produce he doesn't care any thing about it
 T. is of course recognized that villii 2 cation has it's purpose and that it ma be accepted by some as gospel eve though unprOven but it is indeed des v peTate situation when a candidate fo the highest office in the land bases hi campaign upon such a policy. The coun try can well judge of such action an .he man who runs away from furnish Ing proof of his charges. The answe Of course is that there isn't any.

SAVING THE s.5,s CREW.

From subsequent reports which have made concerning the rescue of the crew "a if the S-5. it appears that the means of notifying the passing ship of the plight of the imprisoned men was not the tele- phone buoy but an improvised flag raised from the end of the submarine af- ter the members of the crew had drilled for hours to get a hole through the steel plate
 From such reports as have been re- ceived it would appear that but for the fact that one end of the submarine re- nnained out of water while the other was on bottom it is probable that no rescue would have been effected. The men were in bad shape as it was because of the gas fumes and the constantly decreas- ing oxygen supply Realizing that one end was out of water the difficult task of getting a hole through the steel moi only gave them a chance to seek helr but it likewise furnished them some. re- lief In the way of air. Likewise the end Of the submarine out of water would doubtless in time have attracted atten ton, but such relief in the way of all and the chance to signal would have been denied had the plunger rested en tirely on the bottom.

LABOR DAY.

Labor day IS day set aside for the cause Of labor on the first Monday of September throughout the country. There are cities where it gets greater recognition than in others and there have been times when there have been greater demonstrations in its behalf than there are today There was time when most every city of any size had a - big uarade followed by special exercises with prominent speakers dwelling upon the importance and rights of labor. It doesn't mean that there is a lessened interest in the activities of organized la- bor that such demonstrations are not held but that interest is being aroused and supported in other ways.
 Labor day like many other of the hol- idays is being largely devoted to recrea- ton. whether it be in making a rest day af it or making use of it for sports weekend trips or in other means of lmusement.
 In spite of the many attractions which arc invariably arranged Labor day car we'll be a day of ree1ction for each and every worker We are passing through a period when even those who are or Esnized for their own protection are be- ing endangered by those within theti ranks who arc determined not to abide by the rules of their organizations, the advice of their officials or the contract! which they have made What such ele ments are doing cannot of course b, charged 10 labor as body but it rest! with those who have a regard for law and order. who understand the import snce of living up to agreements just thu same as they expect others to do to se' that the irresponsible forces do not ge Into control.
 Organized labor is being endangered Y the radicals even as those of th' ane type tried to strike at the yer! Htals of this nation during the periot f the war Labor should get all that .s entitled to in the way of wages ant working conditions but 1t cannot afford any more than any other organization 10 put it's guidance into unsafe hands.

NOTES FROM PARIS.

In French sports cloth the favorite colors of the minute are all shades of rust and yellow, with the bright greens of lettuce, apple and jade.
 These new materials indicate that skirts will remain narrow and straight, much as they are now. Sports skirts consist simply of straight breadths of material gathered on to an elastic band. When the cloth is not striped the striped effect is given by lines of colored wool braid running at intervals from waist to hem, where it is used as a binding. Coats worn with these skirts are left unstriped but have the braid binding and a lining of the color chosen for the braid.
 Though the bell shaped sleeve is a novelty by virtue of it's retirement in ia vor of less substantial models, it is well known to many generations of women Will it, one wonders, bring back to the light of day the deliciously feminine looking undersleeves of net lace and mehroidered lawn which were won't tC be its close companion
