WOOD USED FOR FUEL
Farm Economy Found Convenient

RALEIGH, N. C. R).-Use Of wood
instead of coal for fuel in schools and
other public buildings this Winter Is
urged by the North Carolina depart
ment of conservation and development
as an aid to farmers.
Adoption of such practice, the de-
partment pointed out, will not only
make possible economies in necessary
expenses, but will furnish additional
markets for wood for the farmer and
landowner and additional sources Of
income for soms of the States un-
employed.
Wood for fuel can be obtained, the
department said, without creating an
additional drain on the forests. Wind
fall and woodlands may even be
benefited by thinning.

What The Doctor Says BY DR. s. J. CRUMBINE GENERAL EXECUTIVE AMERICAN CHILD HEALTH ASSOCIATION

an extra quart of milk a day and giving the younger members of the family more bread and milk and less bread and butter. Claire and Robert love a big bowl of bread and milk for breakfast, especially when they are allowed to take it on to the porch and eat 1t in the sunshine. And 1t is really better for them at this time, for if they eat much butter or fat of any kind they are likely to feel the heat more.
 Since most ailments during the summer are due to digestive up. sets, 1t Is worth while for every mother to keep a careful watch on her family eats during the hot weather. Mrs Johnson will do her best, know. though like most chill dren the Johnson youngsters are given to soda pops and hot dogs when they get an opportunity! l remember once when Bill made himself dreadfully sick by eating three ice cream sOdaS and then gO- ing in swimming immediately, but he's never done it since. It gave him such a pain that he has never forgotten it!
 As in most families, the question of ice cream is always coming up at the Johnsons.' They have it fre- quently for dessert at lunch or supper, for Mrs Johnson knows that it is nourishing as we'll as cooling, but in spite of that. Mary and Claire especially are continual ly begging for ice cream cones at all hours of the day. Usually they don't get them, for the Johnson budget does not include many spare nickels. Occasionally, however. if the day is very hot and the next meal Is a long way off, Mrs John son says "Yes" instead of "No," and the children rush happily down to the drug store for the precious cones. But woe to any child who, after eating ice cream. has no ap- petite for lunch or supper! Mrs Johnson has an uncanny memory for such lapses and the next re- quest for y''Just one cone Mother dear" is bound to meet with a refusal.
 The whole family is particularly fond of fresh fruit juices to drink and Mrs Johnson keeps 8 good supply of them on hand. But her great standby during the summer for thirsty little throats is water not ice water but freshly drawn water from the cold faucet, bottled and left in the fcebox for an hour or so it get thoroughly chilled. The children can drink this with per- feet safety. Baby John, of course. still has his cool boiled water. The only difference Is that he gets rather more of it now than he did in the cooler weather.

YOUR CHILDREN
By Olive Roberts Barton
9l9s2 eY NEA ssRXieE INC:

Through July and August there is only one object in life-and that is to reduce your work, mother, to a minimum.
 One time I advised a certain woman in the spring to roll up her hot rugs and regate them to the attic in moth flakes or balls, then to shop for cheap mating rugs for her rooms.
 She did that very thing and the other day she told me she never regretted the expenditure for those rugs. This is to be their third season,'.s she said, 'and they are as good as new"
 She also told me that she had followed some further advice of mine and had taken every stuffed chair, all the draperies, and un- necessary tables to the store-room too, and kept only the most neces- sary things downstairs.
 Tt looks and feels like camp" she declared happily, "and get through with my work in no time"
 We'll, since times are low I can not repeat my suggestion of re- placing your rug stock, but if you belong to the class that hasn't been too hard hit, it is as workable an idea now as it was three summers ago.
 I am, of course, speaking to those who do most of their own work. But even so, it~ymakes a nice change and the children will love it. When they grow up they will always remember the times the house was turned into another place, with little Japanese paper hung over the light bulhs instead of the silk ones, paper parasols put over the fireplaces. and gay paper napkins instead of the linen ones.
 All for a Cool Summer!
 And by the way. paper towels save much laundry work, too. Where there are several children running in with dirty hands. they are godsend in that respect.
 The same friend who spoke a. bout the rugs mentioned another suggestion she had taken to heart.
 She has nice side yard and q back yard. They used to be ugly. but she brought popular trees at a dollar apiece and some shrubbery that grew high and made the place private and lovely.
 She got her boys to find big stones and build her a picnic fire place. Over that she laid two old broilers or gridirons. She often cooks supper out there in summer and they all love those picnics
 Now we all don't have gardens to picnic in, but it is an idea for

MRS JOHNSON'S SUMMER
 MENUS,

We had a special treat for sup per at the Johnson house last Sunday. Mary and Bill brought in some beautiful lettuce, all crisp and green, from their garden and Claire and Robert contributed whole plateful of fat, red radishes from their garden, so We had a John son salad" A Johnson salad" Is one to which every member of the family contributes something. On this occasion Mrs Johnson contri- buted some cooked fresh peas from the icebox and she also made the dressing. MT Johnson and I had
 nothing to offer except an excellent appetite.-so we were dispatched to the delicatessen to get some fresh tomatoes, since Bills toma- to plants are not yet bearing. Baby John, being too young to eat any of the salad was excused from con- tributing, but the rest of us felt that we had earned our meal when we sat down to it.
 Mary and Bill are both keen gar deners, so MT, Johnson, who has really no time for it, has turned the garden over to them Sfor the summer. The only stipulation he
 has made is that there must be
 plenty of fresh vegetables for the
 family table all the season. And
 surely there ought to be, for the
 youngsters have already put in let
 tuce, radishes, potatoes and toma-
 to plants, and they are planning
 to have squash, carrots, cucumbers,
 cabbage, green peas and beans. | Claire and Robert, besides their
 radishes, have grand parsley bed
 which will help decorate many q | fine dish this summer.
 Mrs Johnson always includes plenty of vegetables and fruit in her family menus, but during the summer she takes full advantage of the greater abundance of both. Vegetables dishes, salads and both raw and cooked fruit will appear daily on the Johnson table, and there will be corresponding de- crease in the amount of meat and more elaborate desserts. Acting on my advice Mrs Johnson is taking
