Nicotine Acid
To Be Given
New Name

CHANGE OF the name of
nicotine acid to niamid was
urged by DR.. James A. Tobey in
a recent address before the
Public Health Association Of
New York City.
Explaining that NICOTINE acid
is beneficial and necessary
vitamin, but that too many err
roneously associate IL with the
nicotine of tobacco, Doctor
Tobey stated that the two have
nothing whatever in common,
and that a new name for this
valuable food substance would
clear up much unnecessary and
undesirable confusion in the
public mind.

Altogether NICOTINE acid itself
has been known for about Is
years, it was discovered TO be
a life-giving vitamin only about
four years ago, Doctor Tobey
said.
Niamid. or NICOTINE acid, is one
OF the vitamins of the vitamin
b complex that is now being
added. along with iron and other
food materials, to the new en-
riched white breads, the speaker

How+o Lessen
Fire Hazard
Of Tree
BY ELEANOR ROSS

A CHRISTMAS TREE may
be beautifully decorated, hung
with magnificent baubles and
piled with gifts, but unless it is
lighted it really isn't Christ
mas tree at all.
Even electric lighting, much
safer than the candles Of an
other day, isn't entirely danger
proof, as too many have discov-
cred to their sorrow and loss.
Before starting TO dress the
tree, then, examine the lighting
sets to see that insulating mate
rails are in good order, not
frayed, worn or cracked, and
that no bare wires are exposed.
Examine both plugs and lamp
sockets, and discard any set
that is not in absolutely perfect
condition. Tree lighting sets are
so inexpensive that il is not
worthwhile to do a repair job.
Outdoor Trees
If you are planning, as so
many or US are, to have an IL
Illuminated tree in the front yard
or lawn. or small one on
either side of the front door. get
a wiring set specially designed
for this, and do not try 10 adapt
an indoor lighting set for that
PURPOSE.
The sets designed for outdoor
illumination have moisture-re-
sistant wires and specially con-
Structed sockets. Here again,
buy only sets that bear the
underwriters or laboratory guar
antee.
Fire-Resistant Treatment
The United States depart
ment of agriculture has worked
out method for making trees
fire-reSistant. by using a treat
ment Of ammonium sulphate.
This is purchasable in most
stores that deal in seeds and
commercial fertilizers.
The tree should be delivered
TO you four TO six days before
II is to be decorated. To make
sure of fresh, good tree. see
that il is green and that the
needles do not readily loosen.
Ascertain the weight of the
tree and divide the weight by
four. The result determines the
amount of ammonium sulphate
needed. For instance, a six
pound tree would require y
pounds of the chemical.
Here's How
Place the required amount OF
ammonium sulphate in a con-
tainer, preferably a tin pail, and
dissolve in water, using y pintS
for each pound of ammonium
Sulphate.
Saw off the butt Of the tree
about one inch from its end at
an oblique angle. so that the
chemical solution can be freely
drawn into the fresh wood Set
the tree in the solution in a
cool place, away from sunlight,
and leave until the tree is used.
II the tree abSorbs all the so
luton. Il should be perfectly
fire-proofed. Anyway. whether
IL has been treated or not. keep
all inflammable materials, all
lighted matches. candles and
such. away from the tree.
Never, of course, place your
tree near an open fire within
radius Of living sharks.

YOU CAN make this Christ

say it beats anything in the
way of turkey you've prepared
before. 1t is every bit as easy
to fix, too, as ordinary roast
fowl.
