Singer Perfects Outlet
For Fancied HUNGER

This may not sound too appeal
ing, but at least Fortunio Bonanova,
Spanish concert singer, is trying.
Bonanova has recently put on the
market a thing he calls "meatless
outlet" He also has evolved gravy
and "onion soup for the masses.
The only catch to the whole busi-
ness is that dinner dreamed up by
Bonanova comes in small paper
bags, with instructions for adding
water and heating. The "cutlet"
never saw lamb. The gravy" is
a figment Of the imagination.

Make 'Tun' a Ton

A half-century ago there was a
brisk trade between France and
Great Britain in French wines
shipped in wooden casks or tuns.
So heavy was this channel traffic
that ships were measured according
to, the number of tuns they could
carry, the National Council of Amer
lean Shipbuilders tells us.
The crafty French wine mer-
chants, however, tried to sell as lit
tie wine as possible for as much
money as possible, steadily decreas-
ing the size of the tuns or casks.
Thrifty, thirsty Britons resented this
fraud and prevailed upon parliament
to do something about it. A law
was passed that ton (tun) of wine
worthy of its money and name
should contain 252 gallons, old Eng
lish measurement, or approximately
2,240 pounds avoirdupois.

Russ Use Butylene Gas
To Speed Tree Growth

The Russians have studied the use
Of butylene gas, says Chemical and
Engineering News, showing that it
has stimulating effect on the speed
of growth of trees, such as the apple,
apricot, pear, cherry, plum, peach,
and walnut, bringing them to fruition
much faster.
Where the growth season is too
short to allow the full maturing of
trees owing to the inclement wealth
er in parts of Russia, so that flower
formation and fruit settling are de-
layed, butylene has been used to
hasten the growth period.
The method of treating tree is to
enclose it in a tent for two weeks
before the normal or desired leafing,
that is start of the growth cycle.
Butylene is passed into the tents in
concentrations of one part in loo, 900
parts of air at temperatures between
SO degrees and 100 degrees Fahren-
heit for a period of one to two hours.
Small heaters are probably used
to raise and maintain the tempera-
ture Of the air around the tree in
order to obtain maximum effects OF
the growth-inducing hydrocarbon,
butylene.

Cereals Nutritive

Instead of stressing foods that are
scarce, homemakers should put
more emphasis on foods which are
available in as large amounts as we
are likely. to want them. Outstand-
ing in this class are cereals. There
is every prospect of ample crops
both here and in Canada.
AS a group the whole-grained
cereals have far more nutritive
value than most people realize
they are rich in several important
minerals and vitamins. Used as
meat offenders, as breakfast food
and in buildings as well as bread,
large portions of cereals can be in
troduced into the diet without our
being especially conscious of them.
Recent information has been re-
leased that all of our white bread
will be enriched by the addition OF
some Of the nutrients which are
removed in the milling process. This
Is certainly a step forward. Never
theless the original whole wheat
itself is to be preferred, for in ii
is every thing that wheat can con-
tribute.

Armies Land on Hostile
Shores in Nameless Ships

The grim drama of invasion could
not be staged without the aid of hun
dreds of nameless little ships. These
small craft, troop and tank barges,
take over when the big ships have
performed their task of bringing
troops, tanks and equipment as
close to the enemy shore as pos
sible.
The little nameless ships, some Of
them not even distinguished by
number, circle the troop ships, the
tank lighters and, at a given signal,
swoop toward one of the troop trans
ports and armed troops swarm down
the landing nets and into the barges
which roar away toward the shore
perfectly co-ordinated effort car
ried out with speed and precision.
From other ships, tanks roar
down runways and into heavy steel
barges. Each of the little ships has
a bow that drops when it reaches
shore and men and tanks are quick
ly landed.
The thunder of guns, the deadly
and sinister chatter of machine guns
isn't signal that the work of the
little ships is done. 1t has barely
started for the same invasion barges
race endlessly back and forth bring
ing in artillery, munitions, food, wa
ter, gasoline, trucks and jeeps and
hospital supplies-all of the material
needed by an invasion force. They
work fast and hard, making dozens
of trips.
They are probably dependable
craft. No single one of these small
and nameless craft will ever go
down in history surrounded by fame
and publicized glory.

Tribe Aids Chinese

Lisu tribesmen have gone to war
against Japan, 100, 1000 strong. Their
homeland-of immediate strategic
importance-is the mountainous bor-
der between Japanese-held Burma
and China's Yunnan province. China
has armed about 10000 Lisus, re-
placing their traditional weapon
the poisoned arrow-with rifles.
The Lisus are peaceable, but they
like their freedom. Among their
neighbors Lisus are famed for their
dancing. They are the official dane
ers for inter-tribal ceremonies. They
dance to the twanging, waspish mu-
sic Of bamboo jews harps. Men
and women join in the simple yet
graceful figures. One dance is per-
formed to the accompaniment of the
grooming voices of the tribesmen.
Their songs are all versions Of
There's No Place Like Home. -
They sing of their misty mountain
top homes, and of dim, dripping for
ests where they hunt.

ABOUT CORN

Farmers in the corn belt are accus-
refusing to sell. Corn processing
plants have been closed; the East
has suffered from lack of feed for
dairy cattle and poultry, and has
dickered with Canada for grain.
Even the brewers have had to cur
tail production.
Some officials charged the corn
farmers with going on Shutdown
strike" Another explanation was
that the farmers are holding the corn
in the expectation of higher prices.
To meet that situation, the War
Food Administration announced that
farmers who sell for cash between
July l and August 10 will share in
any rise in ceiling price that may be
announced by Oct. 81. But what is
believed to be the real reason for
keeping corn off the market is the
fact that corn has ceiling price of
$40 bushel, while corn fed to
hogs and marketed in that form
brings about $3.50 a bushel. 1t is
mere business matter with the far
mers. To meet this situation the Sen
ate, few days before recess of Con-
gress, voted to take the matter out
of the hands of the OPA and set the
ceiling price at $1.40 bushel, but
the bill did not get through.
To make matters worse, this years
corn is estimated at nearly half
billion bushels less than that of 1912.
in spite of the six or seven million
additional acres planted. In the
meantime, the number Of cattle and
hogs has greatly increased, so that
more corn than ever is needed. Ex-
perts say the solution is either
liquidation OF livestock or an in
creased production OF corn and other
grains. More grain next year has
been called for by the Food, Admins
traitor, but early action must be taken
to cope with the estimated 100000
900 bushels in the coming feeding
season.

better flavor and more calories, but
has nothing to do with keeping quail
ties.
Berries are too precious to waste
and none Will be wasted if you will
see to it that every step taken is
the right one. First of all, wash,
rinse and examine your jars. Be
sure to inspect the top edges of
those to be sealed with glass top
seal or two-piece vacuum seal clo-
sures because top seals refuse to
work unless tops of the jars are per-
feet. Cover Jars, glass lids, and
zinc caps with luke-warm water,
heat to boiling and keep hot until
needed. Wash and rinse rubbers
and vacuum seal lids and drop them
in boiling water-they don't need
boiling unless you plan to do old
fashioned open kettle canning-then
they must be boiled few minutes to
sterilize.
Every berry must be fresh, sound,
ripe, and firm. Wash them carefully
and then take your choice of can
ming methods.
Gladys Kimbrough, Home Service
Director of Ball Brothers Company,
prefers to hot-pack berries. This is
how it is done. Place berries in a
wide, shallow pan; add one-half cup
sugar, or less, for each quart of ber-
ries; set the pan over low heat and
simmer until the berries heat
through and the sugar dissolves IRE
member you don't have to use any
sugar.; pour the hot berries into
clean, hot jars and process five min

Developed Mobile ARTILLERY

Reforms effected by General Girl
beauval of the French artillery in
1776 have been steadily carried fur
Their. Alive to the importance Of
mobility, simplicity, and ease of sup
ply, he eliminated many types and
calibers, reduced weight, improved
range and accuracy, and introduced
interchangeability Of parts. Exam
Piles of modern developments along
those lines are the dual-purpose gun
used both for antitank and antiair-
craft; the split trail which permits
greater elevation and hence greater
range; other carriage improvements
such as wider traverse which gives
q broader field Of fire.

If you prefer cold packing, fill a
jar about half full with raw ber-
ries, then tap it gently on folded
cloth to shake the berries down.
When the jar is filled to within a
half-inch of the top, add enough hot
syrup to cover the berries. Process
20 minutes in Water-bath Gamer.
Syrup for four quarts of berries
may be made by boiling two cups
sugar and three cups water or berry
juice together until the sugar dis
solves. If you are a little short on
sugar-an who isn't these days?-
try making the syrup of one meas
ure sugar, one measure corn syrup,
and one-half measure water or berry
juice. This syrup seems rather thick
and sweet, but it will become thin
ner and less sweet after it has been
with the berries few weeks. And
if you have no sugar at all, cover
the berries with hot berry juice or
boiling water; seal or partly seal the
jars follow the manufacturer in
structions) and process 20 minutes
in water-bath Gamer.
If you want your berries to really
star, can them without sugar Then
they can be used as if they were
fresh from the patch. The juice can
be drained off and used for making
jelly. The berries can go into a pie
or into jana jam turnover tucked
in a lunch box will make the noon
hour much more pleasant for some
body and surely you need nobody to
tell you that jelly and jam are far
more delicious when freshly made
than at any other time.

THE EXTENT OF THE DURATIol
j. e. Jones

Washington, D. c., Aug. EVERY
one laughed at the thin old man on
street car platform in Washington
who loudly insisted that "the dura-
ton is going to last longer than the
war;" Maybe the fellow was right!
At least the home life of our coun-
try is upset, the ways of eating shift
day by day from beefsteak to fam
inc; the Republicans are organizing,
planning and plotting for the post
war; Newdeal-ism is fading into the
mists and it's old enthusiasts are re-
turning to the Democratic party; gas
and food rationing "ain't right" ac-
cording to 8 out of 10 discussions
in which everyone has a little griev-
ance all his-or-her own. After all
why not accept the prophecy that the
duration will actually last longer
than the war?
After the war the victorious Gov
ernments will have to establish an
organization to guide and police the
world, feed the hungry, and start
the wheels revolving again. After
the war millions of men, women,
boys, and girls will have to lay aside
their uniforms and establish them
selves in a way to earn living. The
Constitution will still be found in
operation, but the Fedora Govern
ment has taken over most of the au-
thority of the which is an
other matter!
Two hundred chief manufacturing
idustries, 184,230 large and small
manufacturers, 100000 union
workmen, and at least half the en-
tire population of the United States
will be busy with the problems of
reimbursement during the duration.
When Harding was President he in
vented a slogan, "back to normalcy!"
1t was an expressive term. After the
war the whole industrial system
most of which has been in disuse-
must be restored. Millions of incomes
will have to be cultivated, or estab-
iished, millions of unforeseen prob
lens must be faced.
Let everybody chip in with an idea
about the postwar resurrection. Ev-
eryone was brushed aside by the big
wise men who lost the peace after
World War 1. The more free speech,
the more suggestions and plans the
better. Out of the mess of things it
is still reasonable to expect that we
will get back to normalcy"-bu it
will be a long, hard battle in which
the duration may extend far, far be-
yond the close of the war.

Horsepower To Firepower

1t is no accident that the country's
greatest producer of automobiles in
peacetime is now the greatest produ-
GER of firepower. Five years ago Cen
eral Motors engineers began looking
at blueprints of guns. We were not
at war. The war in Europe had not
yet started. But with the foresight
typical of American industry the G..
M. technical men began to familiar
ize themselves with products they
had had no experience in making but
felt the country might need in the
future.
Two years later, in May, 1910, the
War Department placed an "educa-
tional order" for 500 machine guns,
with a General Motors division. To-
day % divisions of the company in
the United States and Canada are in
production on Is different types of
weapons and assorted gun parts for
the fighting forces of the United Ma
ton. In one recent month they turn
ed out $4,000 shooting irons"
ranging in size from carbines to
cannon.
1t is this kind of preparedness
that enabled this nation to make it
self strong in war although not arm
ed for war before it came. The divi-
deds being paid by the foresight, the
preparation of companies for war
jobs-euch as G. MS translation
of the gunsmith's craft into mass
production terms-and the konw-how
that made this possible, can clearly
be seen now in the successful often
sives of the United Nations. For
this offensive power stems chiefly
from the furnaces and factories of
America
