CUT HOME WASTE j Servants Arc Responsible for Greater Part of It. lnvMtlQ*t)on? In New York Prove I That Average Family Throw* Away Pound and Half of Good Food Every Day. I'eople of average means con hard ly afford in these days to keep ?>orv anta. Households which formerly kept twu or three now got along with one maid. Many manage with half a servant, sharing her with a neighbor. Not a few housewives have been driv en to the ueceHMlty of doing their own cooking nud sending the washing to a laundry. This ha* meant a great deal of dis comfort. but then* has been an Incl dental gain. Waste Ih enormously re ducedr Servants make nearly all the waste of a household. Many housewives, de prived of "lady help," have been as tonlshed to observe a shrinkage of their food bllla, notwithstanding the present doubled and trebled prices. When a domestic establishment em ploys half a dozen servants the waste Is enormous. Nearly always In a house run on that scale the butler and cook "stand In" with the butcher and grocer, and their rake-off Increases with the amount of food they throw away. Recent Investigations by the New York health department proved that the average family living It) a private house, with one or more servants, throws away a pound and a quarter of perfectly good food every day. It was found that the average apart ment house family thrown away only one-fifth as much ? largely, doubtless, because such families reduce domestic service to a minimum. In the tenement districts of Now York one garbage can usually suffices to hold the food refuse 'of 20 families. But In the "private house .districts'* It was found that 103 families hgd 175 garbage pails, or more than a pall apiece. ' Examination of the 175 palls re vealed 18 poupds of bread and rolls, 50 pounds of meat, 55 pounds of pota toes, 1(5 pounds of cereals and large quantities of perfectly edible fresh vegetables. Always the amount of food waste varies directly with the number of servants employed; As a matter of j fact, the full garbage pall seems hith erto to have been regarded In this country ns n manifestation of pros perity. Not until very recently have people begun to think that possibly this was a foolish Idea. ' Mosquitoes and Colors. The mirtarin -carrying mosquito, it and ivpelled by others. Experiments hit been conducted in a gauze tent, one end of which was formed by large windows. Into these the sunlight poured "?i bright days, I, urge stone in?5 were pliK-ed on the floor for the mosquitoes to breed in. It was imme diately noticed that when a person en tered- the tent- e*td? -tn dark gray clothes, the mosquitoes settled on the cloth. When the person who pilfered was dressed in white flannel, they did not approach him. A number of hoses lined with cloth of various colors were placed In rows upon the floor, and it was noticed that groat numbers of mosquitoes entered the box lined with dark blue. Fewer of the insects sought the boxes I inert with the other colors, the number diminishing in this order: I>ark red, brown, scarlet, black, slate gray, olive green, violet, leaf green, blue, pearl gray, pafe green', light blue, orher. white and orange. No mosqui toes whatever were found In the box j lined with yellow. Efficiency. " Tears like Polk Sawney, (tint runs t lie store at the crossroads, hain't ovur rld with enterprise," commented a cit izen of Kiddle Creek, Ark. "Tother day, frinstance, I went there In the middle of the afternoon to buy a little something, talk a few politics, and so forth. When I sa'ntered In nobody was In sight on the place. Rut after I'd tromped around fihr a spell ft sleepy voice from under the counter sorter snarled : " 'if you're a drummer that nims to sell mo something, I don't want It ; and if you're a customer that is fi? jrerln' on buying something, why in fury can't you Just n< well come around some time when I hain't plumb yaw-w-w-wn ! ? wore out?" The Fastest American Destroyers. All American records for speed were broken by the tnrpedo boat destroyer MutJerlee during her standardization Hrine: over the measured mile of Rock Innd, Me., when she made' a mile at the rate of 38.20 knots. The best pre vlous record of 37.04 knots was held by the American destroyers Dent and W I ekes. The boat also established a new record in her class for horsepotr er. developing a maximum of 31,223. The Satterlee, which has been In com mission six months, was built by the Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock company.? Scientific American. Logical Enough.
