Forty feet higher and half again as wide as Niagara the Falls of Iguassu. thunder from the heights of 210 feet in a virgin forest 11 miles from the Junction of Brazil's Iguassu river with the Rio Parana. Known also as Iguazu, a4 Guarani Indian term meaning "Great Waters," the falls in dry seasons form two distinct crescents known as the Brazilian and Argentine Falls, each about 800 yards in width. In the rainy seasons of the year, when the Iguassu river is at flood, the two crescents join in an awe - inspiring cascade which is sometimes 4,000 yards in width, the most tremendous natural waterfall in the world. The names given to sections of the falls testify to the mingled feelings of affection and awe with which the people regard Iguassu. On the Argentine side, for exaihple, are the San Martin falls, named far Argentina's great liberator, the Two Sisters, the Three Musket? er^, and the Devil's Threat. ; y Pood for Gods " > x-- Ambrosia--"food tor the gods"--• ia a favorite dessert made with oranges.

Only in a small part of this area, however, are conditions right tor a spring sap flow In commercial volume. Three-fourths of the maple sirup and sugar produced in the United States comes from Vermont and New York. Southern Quebec and southeastern Ontario, across the border in Canada, complete a compact area that accounts for more than four-fifths of the world's maple sweets supply. Ohio, Peimsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin follow the two leaders of United States production, surpassing Vermont's neighboring New England states. Maple sugar agriculture has roots as far south as Garrett County, western Maryland, and as far west as Minnesota. This earliest northern crop brought about four million welcome dollars to American farmers in 1946. Thoto by A. Worwick, McHenry MRS.

White clover honey is commonly accepted as a standard, but flavor is really a question of personal preference. In California and the central west, sage and alfalfa honeys •re on a par with white clover, and many Califisrnians prefer orange honey. In Guatemala, the neotar of coffee blossoms produces fine honey. . v - . I •SSh' . Easier Dishwashing Dishwashing can be made easier, and even pleasant, if one is willing to study the problem and take the time needed to analye it. Heading the list of important considerations' is the height of the sink and work space with adjustments to the height of the worker. If the counter is too high, the shoulders have to be lifted and the muscles soon become tired. Too low a surface causes stooping which also tires the worker; 32 or 33 inches from the floor to the bottom of the sink is a satisfactory height for washing dishes. If a higher surface is needed, a wooden rack may be made of slats to fit the bottom of the sink; homemakers with a sink that is too high may wish to have a solid platform built for them to stand on in front of the sink. Right-handed people should have the kitchen arranged to permit washing from right to left; that is, the dirty dishes are piled on a work space at the right of the sink. When washed, they are rinsed at the left of the worker and stacked en a dra inboard or counter also on the left The more convenient kitchens will also have a storage place near the lefthand workspace to store many of the dishes. This arrangement will save motion and steps. • • Cv4T J The Misses Louise, Helen and Marie Stoffel were Elgin callers Monday evfening.
