A Little Talk on Thrift

Once upon a time (and ii la not so very long) some enterprising American started the Ides of making augar from watermelons. But this new Ides of Increasing the supply of sugar was very short-lived. Refrigerator car* and cold storage made a wider and more profitable market for the mclonr themselves. Now that sugar brings so high s price, however, perhaps the Idea maybe found practicable. Possibly new sources of augar may be worked sue censfully. For sugar exist* In many growing things besides the sugar cane and the sugar Wet. from which it Is chiefly made for the world’s use. Sugar haa been made from different kinds of palms for centuries by tbe native* of India. Tbe palm (“arenza saccharifera") yields 87.91 per cent of cane sugar ("sucrose") as impared with 93.33 per cent from the sugar cane. 92.90 per rent from the sugar beet and 82.80 per cent from the maple

tree.

The saps from many trees, besides tbe sugar maple, contain sweet*. Among these are the wild date ("phoenix sylTemrU”), the birch ("betula papyrifera")). whose sap flows

The Vegetable Garden The vegetable garden Is source* of sugar. Maize (or Indian with which cxperllnent* have been made, gives 88.42 per cent of sugar.

Tbe stage of growth and the degree of ripeness have a-very decided effect the kind and quality of sugar In fruits. Apricot* hare about 2 per cent, ripe gooseberries and ripe pears about 6 per cent; raspberries, strawberries and apples about 8 per cent; sweet plums as high as 14 per cent; ripe bananas 11 per cent: ripe peaches 16 per cen*. cherries 18 per cent. Figs, raisins and dates are rich In sugar. Dried figs yield over 60 per cent of sugar. Raisins are used for making sugar in practically all the countries of southern Europe and western Asia. Sugar exists (In solution) In many vegetable Juices. It is found in the stems and roots of the grasses, especially the sugar cane, sorghum and com*talks; in fleshy roots like the beet: in the sap trees; in almost all sweet fruits, and In the nectar of flowers.

place in tbe great affairs of men. It Is a fallacy that the age of fifty marks the dead-line of accomplishment. Comparatively few of the men who have played prominent parts In shaping the course of civilization known to fame at fifty, and most of the epochal accomplishments of mankind have been brought abou: through the power and genius of those well beyond the half-century mark. Chauncey M. Depew once said that "Men and women have died because they have believed what King David said. You can die any time you like if you think hard enough that you cannot live beyond that time." While It is true that there are some lines of ’ork that can be performed only byyoung men and young women, it Is a false doctrine of economics that the burden of human advancement falls entirely upon youthful shoulders. No phase of tbriftlness Is as cruel 'v its manifeslatic-. and as false in Its philosophy as that which proclaims the uselessness of so-called old men. 1 Just as much a part of thrift man to remain active and usethe very last possible day as It is to conserve money or material re-

This particular leaflet calls attention to tbe full report on forestry conditions in this country which the Forest Service has prepared In response to a resolution passed by the Senate. It also states that a summary of this report In the form of a department bulletin has been prepared. This later can be had free by addressing a request to the United States Department Agriculture.

Thrift of time means putting as many years of accomplishment as pos slble into the span of one’s life as It means the putting of as many busy moments a* possible into each day. The man who at fifty has not yet found his place In the great affairs of ^

men need not be discouraged. He tempt

still has bis chance. He should learn treasure his mistakes and his failures as a fund of .riceless experiences. and with this dearly-paid knowledge and wisdom, set forth to accomplish the great work which he feels lies within his power. No man ever 1* defeated as long as he still can kindle the fires of ambition In his soul. His life may be a story of wasted years, but this grim fact should prove only a scourge to drive him on to ultl

mate success.

Thrift does not consist alone In saving money, conserving food and wearing made-over clothes. The pn>longatton of the years of one’s usefulness constitutes one of the most glorious examples of his virtue. The sum total of human accomplish ments will be Immeasurably increase.! when humanity learns the profound lesson of the thrift of years.

but It 1* a sign of Indifference or careItwaness to maintain this disgusting human parasite In the home, it is not generally known among housekeepers that this little “beggar” will migrate from one house to another, passing through cracks in walls or along the water pipes or gutters. Migration from an infested house 1* sure to happen if the human occupant* leave. During (be day the*e peel* hide in all sorts of places; in the crack* of the doors, under washboards, and wall paper, in the walls, and where wooden beds are used they can be found in the cracks and nnder the slats. The activity of bedbugs is regulated by the food supply. They feed exclusively upon human blood They oan go long period.- without food. Carefully conducted experiments have proven that adults can live from 54 to 316 days without food. Even newly hatched bedbugs live 17 to 42 day* without any food whatever The most effective method of controlling the bedbug provided the infested building is isolated, is to fumigate with hydrocyanic acid gas. It is deadly poison and must be bandied carefully by an experienced person. A bulletin upon household fumigation by this gas will lie sent upon requesL A safe and effective remedy is beat. If the temperature of a building Infested with bedbugs is raised for 135 degrees F’ahr. and that temperature maintained for twelve hours there will not be a live bug left in the building, and the egg* will also hare been killed. The heat will be far. more effective there Is a high humidity. In steam heated bouses this can be easily produced by opening the air-cocks in the
