THE FIRST CONCERN.
{
THE ECONOMICS OF DIET
Dr. Helen Mitchell, head of the Nutri-!
tion Laboratory of Battle Creek College |
and Sanitorium, gives the following prac- |
sical information on reducing the cost of |
food to a minimum:
Let me tell you briefly how to
divide your food dollar effectively. |
«pwenty-five cents of that dollar
should be spent for fruits and vege-
tables. The vegetables, such as po-
totoes, cabbage, carrots, turnips,
onions and others in season, as well |
as some dried beans and peas.
Apples are one of cheapest fruits
at present, although oranges pur-
chased in bulk are not too expensive
right now. If there are small chil-
dren in the family certainly some
oranges should be afforded, or in
place of them, canned tomatoes,
which are an excellent substitute. |
Prunes and other dried fruits may
take the place of more expensive |
fresh fruits,
Another twenty-five cents from
our food dollar should go for bread |
and cereals. These foods are the
the cheapest source of fuel and
must be used more extensively on a
lower-cost plan than is usually rec-
ommended when more money is
available. When this much of the
dollar is spent for bread and cereals, |
ijt is most important that a large
proportion of these be made from
whole grains, which supply in addi-
tion to fuel some very necessary
minerals and vitamins.
“Thus one-half of our dollar has
heen t for vegetables, fruits,
bread and cereals. Of the remainder,
at least twenty-five cents should go
for milk,
or more if there are small |
i
possibl milk?
milk is the most desirable, but it is
ble to use skim milk at two
cents a quart for about one-fourth |
to one third of the milk supply.
This can be used in the |
as a beverage and has fuel value of |
about one half that of whole milk. |
“Another means that can be used |
to reduce cost is the use of evapor-|
ated milk, Not the Sweeteued variety, |
be diluted to
water and at present it is ch
than fresh milk.
“Of the remaining thirt
.out of our dollar, fifteen cen
for more concentrated,
building foods, such as eggs, cheese,
peanut butter, and meats, if used.
(Meats may be safely discarded |
when milk is used.) These are some
of our most expensive foods,
portant to be sure, but they are not
needed in as large Jisstities as the
average American diet provides. We
can afford to reduce our expendi- |
tures for this group of to
quite an extent, especially when cost |
is an item.
“The remaining fifteen
should be used for butter and other |
fats, such as butter substitutes—the |
best of which have the vitamin A |
gontent of Duties. Sugats molasses
and such extras as YoriiEs. |
“On this basis, the i
order for a family
should total about five dollars and
forty cents.
“Bor some of you who might feel
that these quantities sound like
starvation rations, let me give you
a few figures. The average man who
is not very active needs about twen-
ty-five hundred calories a day, a Wo-
man tly less. The average for
four adults in a family would not
often be more than twenty-five hun-
dred calories each, or ten thousand
calories a day. For seven days, sev-
enty thousand calories. The foods in
our market list provide seventy-five
thousand calories, allowing a margin
of five thousand for possible waste,
etc. Certainly one could not starve
on such a food supply.

HOW
ELECTRIC EYE WILL BE
USED IN SORTING MAIL—
Postal employees about railroad
terminals will be relieved of con
siderable work and time saved by
the recent development of the
photoelectric cell or “electric eye,”
as the device is frequently re:
ferred to. It has mow been as-
signed to the work of routing mail
sacks. Each sack is loaded with
mail for one city. When the sack
is full it is placed in a tray con
tainer, which travels on an auto
matic conveyor system of the
overhead monorail type. The con
tainers are made up into “trains”
pulled along at about five miles
an hour by a motor-driven ear
rier, as many as 50 containers
making up a train. As the train
goes by the mail sacks are auto
matically sorted and dropped on
the loading platform near the
proper railway cars. In a demon-
tration arrangement in Cincinnati
there were 34 possible destina-
tions for the mail trays. The
light source (which actuates the
photoelectric relay) at each rail-
way mail car was arranged to
shine its beam on a different
plane from all the others and at
one or the other of two angles.
In order to cause delivery of any
given sack of mail at a particular
destination it is merely necessary
to set the photoelectric tube on a
suitable plane and at the proper
angle to intercept a particular
light beam, and no other. Thus
only those mail sacks whose
photoelectric tubes are correctly
set are delivered. 1f the tubes
are set correctly the mail is auto-
matically delivered,
How Correspondents at
“The Front” Sent News

American newspapers a half hour after

“The urgent rate for such message.

22.19 a word by way of the Pacific,” he
said. “When all four routes were used
for the same message, to insure fastest
possible delivery, the total cost was
about $9 for each ward.”

square blocks, and the blocks thrown
100 to 130 together into a mill which
is a stationary flat slab of stone. Over
this a block of cak of the same diame-
ter is kept rotating while water flows
upon the stone slab. In 15 minutes
the marbles are worn completely round
and are fit for sale. Agates are made
into marbles by first chipping the
pieces nearly round with a hammer
and then wearing them down upon the
face of large grindstones.
How Ozarks Got Name
“Ozarks,” the name of a chain oi
mountains in southern Missouri, north-
ern Arkansas and eastern Oklahoma,
is an Anglicized rendering of “Aux
Ares,” literally meaning “with bows,”
a term which the early French applied
to a band of Quapaw Indians who in-
habited that region. “Aux Arcs,” pro-
nounces “oze-ark,” was descriptive of
the Indians and was equivalent to
English “bow carriers.” The French
established a trading post called Aux
Ares near the present village of Ar
kansas Post.—Pathfinder Magazine.
How Quicksands Form
Quicksands usually occur on flac
| shores underlain by stiff clay or other
impervious materials. They appear
to be formed by the continued collec-
tion of water within the sand bank
which is prevented from running off
by the underlying impervious layer.
The grains of quicksand have rounded
surfaces. Quicksand Is of very light
weight. The infiltrated water sepa-
rates and lubricates the particles,
rendering them unable to support
heavy weight.
How Trail Was Named
When the geological survey war
making observations of the district in
which the Grand canyon is located it
came to a dirty, unsavory-looking
stream which was called the Dirty
devil. Some weeks later the party
came to a clear, beautiful stream run-
ning down a gorgeous canyon, and to
express thelr relief this was called the
Bright Angel creek. The (trail Is
named for this.
How to Clean Gilt Frames
A good method of cleaning gih
frames is to go over the gilt with
a dry cloth to remove all dust. Then
wash with warm water In which a
medium-sized onion has been bolled.
Rub dry with soft cloth.
How Plants “Breathe”
Plants breathe much the same as
animals, and there are two processes
at work, for while they give off more
oxygen than carbon dioxide during
the day, at night they may give off
more carbon dioxide.
