state Controls LIQUOR

State monopoly of liquor selling
brings in more revenue per capita
from alcoholic beverages than open
license systems and is considered
advantageous as means Of social
control by liquor administrators in
the IL states which control sale OF
liquor through state liquor stores.
The six states ranking highest in
per capita revenue from liquor sales
in 1910 were monopoly states, which
reported per capita receipts Of $4.09
to $5.49. The states were Maine,
Michigan, Montana, Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania and Washington. Only five
monopoly states ranked below the
typical state in per capita revenues.
Two of the five, Alabama and North
Carolina, have half to three-fourths
of their populations under local pro-
hibition, the federation said.
The revenue average for monop-
oily states over the four-year period
was about so per cent higher than
the revenue average for all ''wet"
states. Average proportionate in
crease in revenues during the period
was more pronounced, also, in
monopoly states, which obtain about
40 per cent of total state and liquor
revenues from liquor stores.

Strip Crops Check Erosion,
Retain Moisture in Ground

Strip cropping Is an important
practice on sloping fields. The rea-
son commonly considered first is that
strip cropping slows down or pre-
vents erosion. Productivity cannot
be maintained II the top soil Is car
ried away by running water.
There are two great benefits from
slowing down the rate of speed Of
surface water. First, the rate Of
erosion becomes much greater as
the speed increases, and, second, the
amount of water lost from the field
also is much greater.
Conservationists point out that, no
matter how fertile any soil is, crops
cannot be grown on it successfully
without a good supply of soil mois-
ture. It is estimated that 400 pounds
Of water are required to produce
each pound Of dry matter in q corn
crop, so a 100-bushel yield per acre
will take 5000, 900 pounds of water.
There are frequent periods during
the summer when the rainfall is
too short to keep the corn jumping !;
and, unless there is abundant soil
moisture, growth slows down or
stops during dry periods. Strip crop
ping slows down the runoH of rain
fall, so considerably more water
soaks into the ground. This supply
is available in subsequent dry
weather.

Dynamite Blasts Path for
Big Oil Pine Line to East

"Big Inch," the longest and 1arg-
est pipe line ever constructed for
the purpose Of oil transmission, is
being hustled on its way from the
Midwest to the eastern seaboard
by approximately 100000 pounds of
dynamite.
It will cross IS large rivers, 60
over mountain ranges, and through
valleys. About 1000 pounds of ex-
plosives will be used for every mile
where the rock and stone prevent
shovels from scooping out the earth.
Blasting bitches in the bottom Of
rivers is one Of the time-saving and
expert techniques developed by ex-
plosives specialists. With the help
of boats, barges, drills, dredges and
other parapherna1ia, holes are drilled
in the right of way across the
stream.
Gelatin dynamite which works eff
fciently under water Is employed to
load the holes. When every detail
of the preliminary work is complet-
ed, the shots are connected to lead
ing wires, equipment moved out Of
danger and the blast fired. The pipe
is ready to be lowered as soon as
the curtain of water and the debris
which has been hurled in the air
have stopped. Section by section
the river is thus crossed in a frac-
ton of the time possible by any
other methods known to man.

Deyilish,s Mouth

Unlike that of the other rays, the
mouth of the devil fish is broad,
extending across the front of the
head. The teeth, minute tubercles,
number in the thousands and are
arranged in rows over the lower
Jaw only. When the nature of the
food is considered, this reduction in
size of teeth is easily understood.
Devil fishes feed on the small crus-
taceans, fishes, and other plankton
found drifting at the surface of the
sea. To obtain this food the devil
fish simply opens its mouth and
swims along, removing the nutri-
tious organisms as the sea water Is
sucked into the mouth and strained
out through the gills. There is a
special sieving apparatus located
just in front Of the gills which Is
found in no other fish. This con-
sists of rows of elongated plates the
appearance Of which has been
likened to the stems Of ferns with
tiny leaflets turned backwards.

Bremen Pass Echoes From
Marching Armies of History

The rumble of German armored
divisions pouring through the Bren-
ner pass to stiffen Italy's backbone
Is familiar martial music In the Al
pine cash cutting the international
frontier, says the National Geo
graphic society.
Meeting ground of Hitler and Mus
solini for momentous conferences,
Bremen pass has been making his
tory for more than two thousand
years. Less than q mile above sea
level, the pass Is the lowest corridor
piercing the main range of the Alps.
1t has been q path of armies and a
channel Of trade. Through it swept
the hordes Of northern invaders
bound for Mediterranean lands.
Called the "Thermopylae of the Ty-
roll the pass became a battlefield
when Germanic warriors fought Ro-
man legions.
Italy got grip on the pass as part
of its northern boundary through
World war settlements in 1919. At
the expense of the old Austro-
Hungarian empire, italian frontiers
were pushed northward more than
200 miles. With the new territory
Italy took on the problem of the
large Teutonic population Of the
South Tyrol. These Germans were
later required to choose between
Italian allegiance and moving back
under Reich jurisdiction. Italy's
"Maginot Line" perched on the
shoulders of the Alps, is strongly
fortified at the Bremen pass.
A railroad through the pass links
lines from Innsbruck, German ter
minus, and Bolzano, italian city at
its southern end. The 81-mile trip
from one city to the other is made
in about Az hours.

HEALTH RULES FOR
RESTAURANTS

At regular meeting of the Board
Of Health of Cecil County ON Tues
day, June 18th, regulations govern
ing eating and drinking establish
ments were adopted. The new re-
quirements are modelled after the u.
is. Public Health Service ordinance
and code and are effective immedi-
ately.
During the past year periodic in
spection of food handling establish
ments have been made by authoriz-
ed representatives of the Health De-
partment but. lack of specific stand
ards and enforcement facilities Sc
verely handicapped inspectors. The
new sanitary standards must be met
by all establishments in Cecil County
where food and drink are sold and
violators will be prosecuted to the
full extent of the law.
In reference to sanitary conditions
in restaurants, Allen l.. Hardester,
Sanitary officer for Cecil County,
makes the following statement:
1.-THE adoption of regulations gov
erning eating and drinking establish
ments by the Board of Health for
Cecil County is timely aid to the
Health Department in our effort to
secure sanitary conditions in our
restaurants"
THE Health Department has no
desire to bring hardship to the food
and drink establishments of Cecil
County, however, the potential dam
ger of illness from eating in an un
sanitary restaurant can have far
reaching and serious effect on inno-
cent individuals"
Within the next few days all estab-
lishments in the county, where food
and drink are sold, will receive a
copy of the new regulations and the
Health Department will Immediately
launch an intensive survey" of all
restaurants.
The Health Department urges res
taurant patrons to refuse food or
drink served in unclean dishes or
utensils in view of the fact that ade-
quate supplies of dishes, soaps, dete-
rents, bactericidal agents and single
service utensils are still available to
these establishments.

END THE MEAT FAMINE

The housewife who walks empty
handed out of butchers shop be-
cause he has no meat would be
startled indeed if she just knew that
the nations cattle herds are 20 per
cent larger than before the war and
that there are far more hogs, lambs,
and poultry on the farms than ever
before. The vision of these record
herds of meat animals would seem
to our meatless families like mir
age to a thirst-maddened traveller
on the Sahara.
1t just SO happens, however, that
this mirage is true; literally true.
BY the end of this year, the Bureau
of Agricultural Economics reports,
there will be approximately 82,40O,-
900 head of cattle ON the ranges and
farms of the country, as compared
with 67,OOO,000 head in the boom
year 1929. Hog production for 1943
is estimated at 125,OOO,O00 head,
as contrasted with los, 100000 head
in 1912.
Why the meat famine, then? There
are number Of reasons. Some, like
concentrated buying for the armed
focres and expanded purchasing pow
er, are largely unavoidable. Others,
like the slick social reform, regula-
tions imposed by OPA and other
Government agencies to control
prices and consumption, could easily
have been corrected if experienced
livestock men and packers had been
placed in charge.
But the meat famine can be ended,
and ended Immediately, if the people
can break their power.
The solution of the problem is
simply to increase slaughter SO that
current meat demands may be filed,
and thereby reduce the need for feed
stuffs in the future. Were we to turn
half tn eexisting surplus of cattle
we would have enough meat not only
to satisfy the armed forces, all rea-
sonable civilian requirements and
lend-lease demands, but we would
have a large surplus over and above
this ready at hand to feed the starv-
ed millions in the areas presently to
be liberated from the Axis yoke.
Washington agencies, q philosopher
has said, suffer from a cultural lag,
in that they fail to take existing con-
ditions into account in shaping their
policies. Too often, they seek to
solve last years problem this year,
which is too late.

Domestic Soap Sources

In pre-war soap manufacture, the
soap industry used an average of
two parts of domestic to one part
Of imported fats and oils. With the
loss of imports, plans went into eff
feet for Stretching the imported
oils that were on hand or that do
come in. More and more, the ma
tion's soap kettles have depended
upon tallow and oils from our own
country, and limited imports, large
ly from South America, and to some
extent from parts Of the Pacific not
under Japanese control. The Latin
American countries are a great po-
tential source of important oils for
soap, but lack of shipping and other
difficulties still stand in the way of
imports in the large quantities
needed.

Shade Lighf

Raw, irritating light is harmful to
the eyes. Avoid glare by using small
shades on all ceiling fixtures and
wall brackets, by using diffusion
bowls on portable lamps to soften
light, and by choosing shades deep
enough to cover the bulbs and a
base broad enough to allow for a
wide spread Of light.
Arrange lamps so you can sit with
in three feet of the light source. The
light should shine over the left Shout
der Of a right-handed person and
over the right shoulder of a left
handed person.

Rabbits Coed Food

Homemakers who have never
served rabbit have missed an ex.
cellent food. The meat on domes-
tic rabbit is white and delicately
favored throughout, say specialists
In food preparation. Young rabbits,
like. young chickens, can be cooked
by the quick methods Of frying or
broiling. Older or heavier rabbits
are good as roast or fricassee. Most
of the domestic rabbits are market
ed at 8 to 10 weeks of age when they
weigh from three to four pounds. In
food value, rabbits fall in the class
with poultry and other meats ~ q
source of efficient protein.
