Pointer For Peanut Fans

Peanuts are not just a between
meal treat. They are a very noursh-
ing food, and inventive planners find
ways to work peanuts into meals.
Peanuts contain as much as 80 per
cent fat and from 20 to 25 per cent
protein. In addition, they contain
some carbohydrate material, a little
mineral matter, and good supplies of
Nitamins + and G.,
Because an over-supply Of peanuts
can put too much fat in the diet,
nutritionists advise mixing peanuts
with other protein foods. Peanuts can
be worked into the menu in the form
Of nut loaves, nut scallops, nut GRO
quettes, salads, desserts, and other
dishes For list Of recipes using pea

Whether you will save by buying
peanuts shelled or mshclled depends
on the relative cost for equal quaint
ties of each. In IL pounds of pea
nuts III the shell, there is as much
edible portion on the average as in
pound Of 3helled peanuts.

MAIL EARLY, FARLEY URGES

Washington, D. c. QLNS).-Post-
master General James A. Farley has
appealed to the public to mail Christ
mas packages early SO that all postal
employees who can be spared may
spend Christmas Day with their fami-
lies.
He said Christmas Day work would
be voluntary for regular employees or
classified substitutes. Regular en-
ployes, he said, have the option of re-
ceiving either overtime pay or COM

readily see the disadvantage that it
brings to the enlightened states who
have provided or who are seeking to
provide for their own citizens.
"As the old age pension system de-
velops and is perfected-and by that
| am not endorsing any wild scheme
of old age pensioning that may occur
to the mind of any candidate in the
October season Of the year-I mean
sound old age pension that is rela-
lively uniform in the forty-eight
states of the nation-when that is
perfected it will properly care for
superannuated workers and relieve
just that many from the extreme end
of great army of workers of this
country.
"And then the other condition l say
we have met, even in my own state
is to bring about, by proper constitu-
tional amendment, a real child labor
provision to prevent the exploitation
of children in factories and in indus
tries.
"True, we have child labor laws in
many states, but that does not serve
the purpose as long as there is any
state-and there are several-that
will brazenly advertise that labor Of
all ages, unrestricted, is available if
industry will come down to those
states. That is fact, and it puts the
enlightened states to disadvantage.

formity in the control of child labor,
we must see to it that all sections of

of jobs in the mills for their children,

Build Your Furnace Fire in Reverse
Do you start your furnace blazing
by piling kindling on paper, and then
coal on kindling?
Fire should be built III reverse from
the usual methods if they are to burn
properly, is the advice Of the Counsel
Division of the AAA.
First, there should be layer of
ashes on the CRATES, then a layer OF
coal, then kindling, and finally, on top
of everything, the paper. That really
is doing the thing right side up, ac-
cording to fuel experts in the Fed
eral Government. The fire will catch
easier, and will give greater heat.
Leaving thin layer Of ashes on the
bottom protects the CRATES, so remem-
Der whenever you shake the fire down,
stop at the first sign of a hot coal.
You can economic on fuel costs,
too, if you know how to keep the fire
burning properly. The wrong way to
feed fire is to heave coal on every
time it gets low. The right way IS
first push the hot Goals to the side or
back of the furnace with your shovel.
Then fill up the pocket with fresh
coal. This gives a maximum amount
of heat without wasting any fuel.
Another thing to remember is to
learn how to regulate the hampers on
the furnace so that the fire will give
off an even flow Of heat. Letting the
fire die down and then building it up
again several times a day will also
cut into your heating budget.
Finally, don't burn trash or refuse
in the furnace, and keep the ashpit
cleaned out to give an even-burning
fire.

Facts For Blanket Buyers

Before launching forth on blanket
buying expedition, know the width,
depth, and length of your bed.
Blankets range from "a to 80 inches
wide, and from rs to 80 inches long.
An ample blanket makes for comfort
and longer wear. The cover should
be long enough to spread over the en-
tire bed, with about inches to spare,
and a few inches wider than the bed
to allow for the depth of the mattress
and the take-up by the body. A slight
ly larger blanket than what you need
will also allow for shrinkage in the
first laundering.
Read the blanket label. a good one
should tell you the percentage Of
wool and cotton in the fabric; the ten
sile strength (pull which blanket
should be able to stand before tear
ing); weight Of blanket, in order to
compare blankets Of the same size and
fiber content; and, of course, the size
of the blanket in inches.
To judge the covers weave and
construction, hold it up against the
light. A good one has a uniform
weave and no thin spots.
In this way, too, you can tel
whether the contrasting borders
stripes and plaids are all woven in the
same direction as the rest of the Gov
er.

ers may cause Fuckers and ripples IL

Agricultural and Domestic Workers
Excluded

Labor asked for extension also tc
agricultural and domestic workers
and to employees of religious anc
other non-protit organizations. The
Board is on record as recommending
this. However, Congress apparently
believed that this extension shoulc
not be undertaken, at least for the
present.

S4OG,000,000 Taxes Saved For
Workers

81 have already referred to another
important change which will affect
labor materially. Congress kept the
old-agc insurance tax rate, for work
ers and for employers, down to the
present one per cent of wages for
another three years. Under the old
law it would have gone up to Z in
1910. That change amounts to a
swing of some $400,000,C00 in work
crs' taxes during that time.
Eve have, then, with the amend
mcnts Congress adopted in August,
very different old-age insurance
system from what We had before 1t
protects the workers families, thus
reaching millions of people not co.,
ercd under the old law 1t enlarges
the benefits for men and women now

taxes. At the same time, however,
it brings monthly benefit payments
nearer, and puts to work next year
