New York.— Wa»te in stale bread
costs the bakers and consumers of the
couu.ry from $5,uuu.uuu to $lii.0uu.0U.i
each year, according to the Food He
at-arcb institute, which has just com
peted a study of the problem, says the
New York Times. As a means of re
ducing tiiis loss, non-acceptance of re
turn loaves, either through new laws,
or action on the part of bakers, more
efficient deliveries and better quality
of output, ft; e suggested by the inst.tute.
The pr licipal source of loss is the re
turn o f bread to the bakers after it
lius become unsalable. The Institute
quotes ti.e United States food adminis
tration as estimating that in 1917 the
loss from the return of stale bread
amounted to “ upward o? (JOO.OOO bar
rels" of flour a year.
The loss varies greatly in different
bakeries lu the same city, and at vari
ous times. Replies to questionnaires
sent out by the Institute indicate 1 a
very low average on the Pacific coast
and a relatively high percentage in the
northeastern states.
The Food Research Institute was es
tablished at Stanford university In
1921, at the suggestion of Herbert
Hoover, by the Joint action of the uni
versity ami the Carnegie corporation,
for the study of problems In the pro
duction. distribution and consumption
of food. It Is concentrating Its efforts
for the present on problems related to
wheat and wheat products, and It was
as a part of this work that It studied
certain economic phases of the baking
Industry.
Losses From Stale Bread.
“ Losses from stule bread constitute
an Important Item of cost for large
numbers of wholesale bakers, and to
some extent for retail bakers as well,”
says a summary of the survey. "Large
stale bread losses tend to raise the
price of bread to ngisuuiers and to
threaten tiie financial position of the
baker. Moreover, since stale bread Is
largely used for animal feed, or even
for fuel, whenever considerable volume
must be disposed of the loss occasions
a needless wuste of food.
“ Our study leads to the conclusion
that, under proper conditions, stale
bread losses exceeding 1 per cent of
production are excessive, and that a
figure of one-half of 1 per cent is an
attainable standard. Losses above 1
per cent reflect objectionable trade
praetb'es, poor business management
or both.
"Acceptance of returns of unsold
bread from dealers Is by aJI odds the
leading fuctor In such lossen wherever
the loss is high. Where tills practice
prevails the loss Is almost sure to be
excessive. The abandonment of the
conunou practice of taking hack un
sold bread from dealers 1« essential
to tbe solution of the stale-bread prob
lent. This change of policy would re
duce certain dangers of food contami
nation as well as tend to cut down
waste. The succaos of n no-returns
policy, however, requires careful atten
tlon to other measures calculated to
Insure that bread reaches tlis con
sumer fresh.
Needed in Sale of Bread.
“The principal requirements are the
following : Bread of a high keeping
quulity must he baked, so that bread
a day or two old may be readily salable
as fresh. Reasonable effort must be
made to keep down the lime between
the baking of breud and its purchase
by consumers. Dealers' requirements
must he gauged closely from day to
day, with salesmen's orders as a basis,
but with adequute use of weather fore
casts and other Information concern
Ing coming events that affect bread
sales. Production must be adjusted
carefully to requirements, both in
amount and in time. Bakers must cul
tivate the support of dealers and tlielr
own sales force In securing this ad
justment. Experience tn the trade
shows dearly that these measures are
entirely practical.
" I f they can meet these require
ments. Individual bakers can success
fully enforce a no-returns policy, even
when competing bakers take tm k un
aold bread. Competition, however,
makes It difficult for concerns to adopt
and >nforce this policy single-handed.
Local
agreements
among
leading
wholesalers not to exchange unsold
bread often afford a practicable
method of abolishing this objectionable
practice. Such agreements sre in the
public Interest, but they are not easily
adopted, cannot always be enforced,
and tend to break down.
“ State laws prohibiting r-turns of
unsold bread have recently been
adopted In six states. Their const.ra
tionality Is sometimes called In ques
tlon. but has not yet been tested. Al-
tliongli not yet fully observed, they
have clearly facilitated reduction In
stale bread losses."

CRATER LAKE
Ages ago a great, tail, volcanic peak,
which has been called Mount Manama,
occupied "a place In the sun" in the
southwestern part of Oregon, about
half way between Portland uud S in
Francisco. The volcanic action within
this mountain produced heat of such
intensity and In such quantity that the
entire top melted, fell in and disap
peared.
Naturally, utter desolation trailed
such a tremendous convulsion. Nature
in her mysterious workings, aided by-
time. changed tins condition of affairs
and produced a striking geological
spectacle which Is one of the scenic
masterpieces of this earth. The open
ing or crater in the top of this topless
peak gradually filled with water which
formed a beautiful, deep blue lake—
hence the name, Crater Lake.
This lake, almost circular In shape
and about five miles across. Is perhaps
the deepest body of fresh water on
eurth. The surface of this lake Is
more than 6.0UO feet above sea level.
No inlet or outlet has been discovered.
Its waters escape through underground
channels which doubtless reappear
elsewhere In the form of springs. New
waters come from other springs and
heavy snows. A belt or girdle of cliffs
towers grotesquely above the lake and
slope down sharply to the edge of the
water.
The lake Is invisible until one has
climbed to the rim. The look down
