card to US. If you want to add the
name of your tobacco dealer, We'll
make sure that he has Edgeworth in
stock in case you like it.

Just what you think of Edgeworth.
Edgeworth Plug Slice is formed into
a cake or plug, then cut into thin, OBJ
long slices. You peel off one thin. fra
grant slice, rub it between your hands
to Just the fineness you personally like
best, and there you have an average
pipeful
Edgeworth Ready-Rubbed is just
the same tobacco already rubbed up
for you. It's ready to pour straight
from the little blue can into your pipe.
Both kinds pack so well that they
light easily. That's why they burn so
freely and evenly to the very bottom
of the little old pipe.
Edgeworth is sold in various sizes to
suit the needs and means of all pur-
chasers. Both Edgeworth Plug Slice
and Edgeworth Ready-Rubbed are
packed in small, pocket-size packages,

SCOUTS

SEA SCOUTING

"Pine Tree" Jim, as most Of US
A Wilder, chief sea scout, is very
happy over his experience in conduct
ing the two sessions of training
schools for sea scouts at Marion,
Mass. Both periods were well attend
ed by boys from different sections of
the country. Seven boys and the
scoutInaster made trip all the way
from Port Arthur, Tex, and. inciden-
tally, they worked their passage on
an oil boat back and forth.
The training school was ideally To-
Gated at the Tabor academy. the ofii-
GERS of which co-operated splendidly
with Mr.. Wilder in the conduct of the
two camping periods and made avail
able their facilities without reserve.
The first group were not only hap
by but very efficient Their maneu-
vers and general operations made a
profound impression upon Gen. Clar-
ence Ii. Edwards, commander in chief
of the department of New England,
who took dinner with the sea-scout
camp one evening.
The enrolment for the second group
was even larger than the first and
passed all expectations.
1t was not all play, by any means,
for each of the groups had the expert
ence of cruising around Buzzard's $
bay, under conditions which tested
their scout training and their endur-
ance The members of the second
camp were mustered into service to
cooperate with the committee in
charge of the ceremonies incident to
the celebration of the Booth anniver-
sary of the landing of the Pilgrims at
Plymouth.
The membership of the sea-scouting
division has increased over 30 per
cent in the last year. Their expert
mental stage seems to have passed,
and the program has proven itself to
be not only useful but attractive to
boys, especially of fifteen years of age
and over.

"Let me try
your tobacco"

Only an unlucky man asks you that.
He is either out of tobacco or he isn't
satisfied with the tobacco he has
picked for himself.
Tosmoke pipe tobacco that doesn't
suit you to T is to feel little irri-
tated every time you light up.
Where you should be taking your
comfort. you feel sore over something
missing.
No one is so patient as a pipe
smoker. He will smoke one kind Of
tobacco that doesn't quite satisfy him
until the COWS come home, or until
some trouble crowds him SO that he
notices how little comfort he is actual
ly getting from his little old pipe.
But he hasn't been happy-dimly
he has realized it all the time.
And when he asks someone else for
pipeful and finally comes upon the
smoking tobacco that is just his-oh
me, oh my, but he's happy man!
He now gets out of his smoking
what others get-the solid comfort
that takes the sting out of the alarm
clock mornings and helps his nerves to
relax at the end of a hard day.

''Sweet dreams"
Strauss instead Of seeking sluinber
sought information. He was shocked
when he was told that just after the
wedding his bride had told girl friends
she did not love him.
"She said she was tired Of working
and only married you because she
wanted life of ease. and you gave
her pretty presents" Strauss states
he was told.

defined by congress, and in those
states where an attempt has been made
to describe the manner in which the
measure should be heaped the phra-
seology generally is vague and indeh-
mite. The heap has been referred to
as a cone, the base being the top of
the measure, and the height depend
ing upon the nature Of. the article
when piled "as high as may be with
out special effort or design" Such
vegetables as sweet potatoes under
this definition might be piled so high
that tile heap would be as large as
the measure itself.
In view of the difficulties which are
necessarily encountered in attempting
to secure a uniform method of filling
or packing standard containers, it is
generally recognized that weight is
the only really definite basis of sale,
and for that reason the pound or
hundredweight should be used where
this is practicable. An exception may
be noted in regard to products which
are carefully graded as to size, in which
case the sales may be made satisfac-
torily by numerical count.

PICK AND PREPARE BERRIES
Care Must Be Exercised by Grower
In Shipping B~lackberries by
Parcel Post.

If a grower wishes to ship black
berries by parcel post, he should ex-
ercise care in picking and packing
the berries. Carelessness in picking
and handling ~blackberries sometimes
causes more injury to the fruit than
does the treatment given while in
transit, say specialists Of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Success in shipping b%lackberries is
dependent largely on favorable wealth
er conditions and the way in which
the fruit is handled in transit.
The shipping weight Of a 16-quart
crate of %blackberries is from q to 80
pounds, and the charge for postage to
points within the first and second
postal zones is from 81 to "a cents.
The cost for crate and postage on a
16-uuart crate of ~blackberries will
vary, therefore, from So to Ga cents.
It may be possible at times to ship
moro tan one kind of berries in a
crate, such as a combination ship
meat.

prepared by the United States Depart

Choose a well-made ice chest; it
Uses less ice than one of poor construc-
ton. 1t should keep a temperature Of
so degrees Fahrenheit, or less, say spe-
cialists in the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. Test yours with
a thermometer.
Keep the ice chest clean; wipe up
anything spilled in it and, when nee
essary, wash it out with hot water,
using two tablespoonful of washing
soda to each gallon Of water; rinse
and dry thoroughly. Keep the drain
pipe clean by flushing with hot water
and cleaning with a long-handled
brush. Such cleanliness does not pre-
vent ice from melting; it does save
food from spelling.
Keep the ice compartment well filled.
This is economy in the long run. Do
not cover the Ice with ice blankets,
newspapers, or cloth. These prevent
the ice melting, but make the ice
chest less cool. Do not keep foods
in the ice compartment, as the melt
ing of the ice is increased every time
the door is opened. Do not open the
ice chest doors unnecessarily. When
one is opened, cold air rushes out
and warm air rushes in. See that
doors are closed tight after use, not
left ajar.
Select fairly thin dishes for ice
chest storage. Thick dishes take up
and hold heat. Enameled ware and
ordinary glass are better than heavy
~earthenware. Never put warm food
OF warm dishes into the ice box. Chill
drinking water and such foods as but
ter, radishes, and olives by letting
them stand in the Ice chest rather
than by serving them with Clipped
