FIREMEN KEPT BUSY
Several Small Fires Within a
Week Have Kept The Fire
men Active

On Friday last, at $50 P. M, an
alarm of fire was sent to headquarters
from the home of VIM. G. Leap, 126
North Broad Street. 1t proved to be
a chimney blaze and was extinguished
before any damage was don.
About half past three on Saturday
morning another alarm was sent in
that the store and dwelling of Sam
Metackoff, located in the Village, was
on fire. Chief johnson with men and
apparatus was promptly on the job,
but Chief Bob Curley, of the Carneys
Point department "beat him TO it."
Both were too late, however, to do any
good and the building and contents
were a complete loss. There was q
small insurance of about $50.
About 8 o'clock Saturday morning
still another alarm was sounded. This
time it came from South Street and
proved to be a two-story frame
structure, owned by Edward Leslie,
and a one-story bungalow belonging
to Roe Justice. Both structures we're
Quilted. Tons of water e pumped
on the blaze by the new pumper from
a nearby ditch and many Of the fire
men were drenched. The loss on the
Leslie building is estimated at about
$500.
There was no insurance on either
building.
On Sunday morning, about half
past two o'clock, an as. o. S." call
came in from the Carneys Point de-
partment to assist. them with a blaze
in a bungalow belonging to Sam
Waxman. The building was located
on the Roe Justice property adjoin-
ing the building burned on Saturday
morning. Fortunately Waxman had
removed his belongings from the
house only a few hours previous.
The efficient and prompt work of
the firemen prevented any of these
fires from spreading to other prop
erty in the vicinity.

All we can say is the Elevator and

FARM N HOME FACTS

One of the essentials for success
with alfalfa is getting getting seed
of the right source. Kansas or Ne
braska seed for South Jersey and
seed from the Northwestern States
for North Jersey has been found to
be a GOOD rule. If the local dealer
cannot prove hat his seed is of the
II IT source for a particular section
OF the State, it is a good plan for the
prospective purchaser to join the
New Jersey Alfalfa Association and
get his seed through it.

The A. B. c. of Nutrition No. 2.
BY Miss Eunice Shal.ey.

1T must have been something |
ate,' we are prone to say when our
digestive system goes on strike sud-
denly.
But we are just now beginning to
realize the fact that we may suffer as
selious consequences from something
we do not eat. Many observations
art being made as to the effect OF eat
ing plenty of wholesome food, but
which is lacking in one factor which
the body needs to keep in healthy
and efficient condition.
For example, certain party of ex-
p!o-ers had with them a plentiful sup
ply of wholesome food-such as
flour, dried beans and peas, sugar,
honey, butter, dried fruit, rice, and
sal, pork. But they developed the dis
eas> known as scurvy. Was this
caused by anything they ate? Not
at all. 1t was caused by something
they did not eat. If they could have
added raw cabbage, or oranges or
lemons or even canned tomatoes to
their food, any one of these would
have prevented the disease or started
a cure. Or they could have corrected
thcir diet by sprouting their dry beans
and eating the sprouts. But they were
eating by guess.
Another story comes from Den
mark. The dairy farmers ii one re-
gion took all the cream from the milk
and made it into butter and sold it in
tho market. They guessed that the
skim milk was good for their children,
and it was. But they DEVELOPED seri-
Gus eye trouble Was th. skinned
milk to blame: 1t was the lack of
the milk-fat, for as soon as these
children had cream and butter added
t. their food the eye trouble began to
clear up.
New let us come a lit'' nearer
home. A group Of seven babies were
b"...g led goo IT. tile feeding, end one
tablespoon of orange juice per day.
GHt they failed to grow. The trouble
vas that the bottle feedi'.gs lacked
something that the orangs .uice sup
lied. But one tablespoon did not
srIfly enough. When til zee table
s. cns of juice were 81. ca each day
the babies all began growing.
