it is obvious that their religious notions
need a revolution. The Delhi confer

abolition of the dsgraceful institution
of untouchability and the speedy aboli-

to note that many who condemn un-
touchability in principle and who are
influential enough to do something to-

Would Increase
Home Efficiency
That Homemakers Outline
And Follow Work Schedule

Greater leisure in the home and
more time for recreation, reading and
visiting may be obtained by planning
household tasks according to sched-
ule, says Mrs Blanche B. Bowers, ex-
tension specialist for the department
Of home economics at the Ohio State
university.
In drawing up schedule Of work,
Mrs. Bowers suggests that a family
council be called and that each MEM
Der be consulted on which jobs they
are to be responsible for and which
they will do together. A list of all
tasks is outlined and steps taken to
increase the efficiency with which they
are performed.
The family is essentially cooper
ative venture, she feels, and may be
made to function in bringing it's menu
bers richer, fuller life if children as
well as grown-ups are assigned GER
tain duties and made to be responsible
for them. Allowing anyone, however,
young or old, to feel they have a re-
sponsibility is one way of achieving
satisfaction for them and helps them
to feel that it is their family and

Proper Light And
Temperature Help
Prevent Chick Vices

| The vices of feather picking and
cannibalsm are responsible for tre-
mendous preventable losses to poul-
try raisers each year. There are four
principal causes: Overcrowding, over
heated brooder houses, too much sun
| light in the brooder house, and emp
ty mash feeders.
Correction Of the causes is obyi-
Gus. A l0x12 or l2xl2 foot colony
brooder house win accommodate 800
! to $50 chicks out on green range
| most of the time after or weeks.
If the chicks are to be confined in
side e1 nave access to sun porch
or sun yard, then the number should
be reduced to 200 to $50, depending
upon the size Of the brooder house.
The temperature in many brooder
houses is too high for the good Of
the chicks and is common cause of
feather picking and cannibalism
The best temperature is the lowest
possible which will permit the chicks
to, be comfortable. The broodei
house should provide both warm and
cool zones where the chicks can seeb
the temperature they desire. A cool
ing room is valuable for this pur-
pose.
Reduced light in the broodei
house is one of the most effective
means for prevention and control OF
the vices among chickens of any age
according to p. c. Kennard, in
charge Of poultry Investigations al
the Ohio Experiment Station. Much
the same effect may be secured from
colored glass. In small colony hous-
es it is often a problem to keep the
light under control during warm
weather when it becomes necessary
to open the windows to prevent the
brooder house from becoming over
| heated. In larger brooder houses
where control of ventilation ant
temperature can be secured without
the use of open windows, the pre-.
ventioh of feather picking and can
nibalism is a simple matter. This
applies also to battery brooding
One of the essentials for success
with the battery brooders is to
have them where the light and tenn
perature can be properly controlled
to prevent the vices.
Questions on, chick vices will be
welcomed on Poultry Day, Friday
June II.

Urge Women to Join in Group Preserving
Activities This Summer to Help Needy
Families During Coming Winter

"Preselve this summer to help the
needy next winter" is d slogan that
condenses into u few words q de-
scription of a movement which as it
gains momentum appears to provide
practical means whereby house
wives throughout the country can
perform a real service in relieving
distress among the unemployed.
Nothing more elaborate or COM
plicated is involved than the putting
up of preserves for distribution to
the needy throughout the winter
months. A great deal can be ac-
complshed by individual women
working in their kitchens and dis
tributing the results of their work
to families with whose needs they
are personally acquainted. An even
more important contribution to relief
however, can be made by women
willing to organize group preserving
activities among their friends, or
women's organizations Of which they
are members.
The cash expenditure required is
small. Fruits and vegetables prom
Use to be unusually cheap and abun-
dant throughout the summer Sugar
is cheaper than it has ever been in
all history. another great point in
favor of the movement is that pre-
serves are of particular value in
maintaining health and stamina. The
fruits and green vegetables are the
best possible sources of vitamins ard
mineral salts. The sugar content OF
the preserves lis an unequalled source
of energy. A supply of preserves put
up by the conscientious housewives
of the community can go far toward
providing distressed families with a
balanced diet that will go beyond TIE
point of merely sustaining life on I
make-shift basis.
The procedure of organizing group
preserving activities is an easy one.
The woman willing to take the init
iative can suggest to a number of
her friends, perhaps to her bridge
clubs, that one day a week they
meet by turns in each others kitch-
ems, each contributing her share of
the small amount Of money required
to purchase the necessary materials
and supplies. Those who are Off
GERS or members of women's com
munity or churcn organizations
should find hearty welcome for the
suggestion that the organization as
a whole devote a day week to such
a Worthwhile activity. Many COM
munity centers and churches have

MUSHROOMS

Do not depend on so-called tests
for distinguishing between poisonous
and edible mushrooms, warns the
United States Department of Agri-
culture. 1t is not true that only
poisonous mushrooms will tarnish
a silver coin placed in the utensil in
which they are cooked, or that they
will become edible if soaked or boiled
ili salt water Neither are mush-
rooms that peel readily always edi-
BILE. Insects on mushrooms are no
guide to their edibility-insects in
fest both poisonous and edible mush-
rooms. 1t is not safe, says the de-
partment, to eat young, unopened
buttons" as it is difficult to dis
tinguish between poisonous and edi-
BILE mushoorms in the early stages.

mencement of Ohio State university
to be held June Is. The recipients
will be Albert V. Bleininger, Newell,
w. Va, ceramic chemist, and Ralph
D. Mershon, New York, consulting
electrical engineer and inventor.
When Benjamin J.. Lamme, '88,
died in 1924, he left $4,000 to endow
the medals to be given annually.
They were awarded last year for
the first time, those honored being
c. E. Skinner, Pittsburgh, assistant

Mershon was graduated from Ohio
State in 1890. For nine years he
was with the Westinghouse Co., and
since 1900 has been a consulting en-
gineer. He was awarded the John
Scott medal by the Franklin Insti-
tute and the honorary degree of doc
tor of science by Tufts College.
During the war he was a lieutenant
colonel in the engineer corps and
was detailed to the naval consulting
board. He is a former president of
the American Institute of Electrical
Engineers and of the Inventors
Guild, and was for two years ma

Following his graduation here in
1901, Bleininger was member of
the ceramics faculty for six years
and then went to the University of
Illinois. In 1908 he became chief of
the clay products section of the u. S.
Geological Survey and later was in
charge of the ceramic division of
the bureau of standards at Pitts
burgh. Since 1920 he has been chief
chemist for the Laughlin China Co.
He is a former president of the
American Ceramic Society, and has
written extensively in his field.

Labels Tell Why
Of Baking Powders

Baking powder appears to most
housewives as just common white
substance that comes in cans and is
used to leaven some of the things we
eat, but there is more to it than that,
says G. L. Bidwell, of the Federal
Food and Drug administration. Bak-
ing powders differ, and the state
ments printed on the labels tell
which kind you are getting.
Baking powder is defined by Of
ficials who enforce the national pure
food law as the leavening agent pro-
duced by mixing a specified acid re-
acting material, or materials, with
bicarbonate Of soda, and usually con-
tains starch or flour The starch is
added to keep the powder from spoil
ing while on the grocer's or house
wife's shelves.
Three kinds Of baking powders are
commonly found on the market to-
day. Their classification depends
upon their acid ingredients. In tar
trate baking powders the acid mate
Iials are cream of tartar, taltaric
acid, or combination of the two
The acid ingredients of phosphate or
sodium acid pyrophosphate. The
third type is a powder in which the
acid ingredients are made up of a
combination of acid phosphate and
sodic aluminic sulphate, sometimes
called "alum." Real alum (potas-
sium aluminium sulphate), is never
used in baking powder. All baking
powders must contain bicafbonate Of
soda (baking soda).
The label will declare the. ingredi-
ents used in the powder. The pur-
chaser may want tartrate baking
powder and in that case she should
look to see if the label contains the
words "tartaric acid" or potassium
bitartrate" or Cream of tartar" The
label on phosphate powder will de-
clare phosphate to be present, and
the label on the combination will
state that sodic aluminic sulphate
and calcium or sodium phosphate are
present In addition, the pure food
law requires a statement of the
quantity of baking powder in the
can.
