DISCOVER WEALTH IN WASTE
Government Has Found Use for Triflea
That Hitherto Have Been Consid
ered of No Value.
In illustration of the truth that it
is the little things in life that count,
the department of commerce reports
experiments in waste saving that
have yielded valuable results, Thom
as F. Logan writes in Leslie’s. The
bureau of standards has found a way
to conserve the scraps of paraffin
paper stock hitherto destroyed or
sold with difficulty because no com
mercial process was known for re
moving the wax. This problem was
solved by the bureau, and the waste
material is now being utilized for
practical purposes. Other waste in
vestigations have given material re
turns in the treatment of clay, mate
rials for making concrete, materials
for paper-making, and the saving of
unused materials in the making of
buttons. The fisheries service of
the department of commerce likewise
reports gratifying success in culti
vating the public taste for tilefish,
grayfis]} (formerly known as dog
fish), and the wholesome sea mus
sel, all being practical attacks on
the high cost of living. On October
1, 1915, the tilefish was unknown to
the consumer as a food. At the end
of the last fiscal year 4,125,000
pounds of it had been sold. Since
then the catch has been at the rate
of 20,000,000 pounds per annum.
COULDN’T GET AWAY WITH IT
Witnesses Had Positive Proof That
Automobilist Had for Some Time
Been Riding With a Chicken.
Heal McLeaster, who is employed
at the Hill Crest farm, three miles
west of Columbus, had an errand to
perform. He jumped into his auto
mobile and drove to Columbus, then
went four miles east and returned.
He stopped at a restaurant to get
some lunch. Boese and Wood, po
licemen, sauntered past.
“I heard a chicken/’ said Boese.
“That was a man,” Wood replied.
“I don’t mean that kind of a
chicken,” Boese insisted. “I mean
a chicken with feathers.”
They investigated, and found a
White Plymouth Rock pullet on the
rear axle of McLeaster’s machine.
They called him out and asked him
seriously what he knew about riding
with chickens. McLeaster indig
nantly denied the charge, and con
tended that he had been out on
legitimate business. Then the police
men pointed to the chicken, and Mc
Leaster gave up. He said it was the
first time he ever took a chicken rid
ing when the chicken insisted on
using the rear axle as a seat.—Indi
anapolis Hews.
BED SUITED HIM.
“My good man, I shall have to put
you on a diet.”
“Oh, don’t, doctor! Tl' bed ie
Sne.”—Lampoon.
POT AND KETTLE.
'vVifey—That Mrs. Brown must be
an awful gossip. I never can tell
i her anything but what she’s heard it
before.
NEW MATERIAL FOR ROOFING
Process Evolved by Which Waste
Bark Can Be Made to* Take Place
of Expensive Stock.
The forest products laboratory ex
perts, in their efforts to reduce the
amount of waste in the lumber in
dustry, have long declared that they
have been able to utilize everything
but the bark, just as the pork packer
is said to market everything but the
squeal of the hog, according to
American Forestry.
I Now they have even found a way
to use the bark. By a new process
waste bark can be used to partially
replace expensive rag stock in the
manufacture of felt roofing, and is
already being used commercially by
mills co-operating with the labora
tory experts. The bark thus used is
that remaining after the extraction
of the tannin for leather work, and
the same waste bark has been used
successfully for the making of a
commercial wall paper. Experi
ments now in progress indicate that
the hemlock bark may be used for
sheathing paper, carpet lining, bottle
wrappers and deadening felt.
THE REASON.
Weary—Do you know why this is
such a hard world ?
Walker—Yes. Because all the soft
places are occupied.
NO PAVING.
Bill—And her father would not
pave the way for her wedding.
Jill—Sure. He refused to fur
nish the rocks.
THE PESSIMIST.
Flatbush—Do you believe that
love makes the world go round ?
Bensonlmrst—Sure, ’round to the
divorce court.
