Editor and Publisher Thursday. August 29, 1929 Something has simply got tc be done about this questionthis question of potato parings. Just think, if you were a poor little potato paring, and you were dropped into the garbage strainer, and braced yourself, as all good potato parings do, against the bottom of the strainer, so you’d be a sturdy foundation foi the rest of the refuse to follow. And then, with all the dishes stacked up to be washed —and the housewife about to empty the garbage strainer — there you were, a poor little potato paring without any home. Just think! There are homes for aged and the feeble minded, and for old soldiers and for lodge members, who’ve not forgotten to pay their dues. But what chance has a potato paring in Syracuse? In lots of places we would mention if they’d pay us our usual advertising rates, potato parings are thrown into garbage cans which are collected by garbage trucks and disposed of, as those cities we haven’t mentioned, see fit. In larger cities, the city itself conducts the garbage removal, and the incineration which follows ,and lots and lots of these places have been known to make money in spite, of politics, and this and that. But in the growing town of Syracuse, there has not yet been any real effort made to encourage some individual, or concern, to collect and dispose of garbage at a nominal sum per month or week, being paid by each family served. There are a few individuals here who collects the garbage from hotels and restaurants, to feed their pigs, but no attempt is made to serve the town as a whole, or the lake residents. So here the housewife gets just as far as the urge to empty the garbage strainer from the sink—and there we must leave her, scratching her head with one hand as she looks down at the

potato parings,, among other | things held in the other. She faces one of life’s larger moments, shall she call in the husband or child, if any, and say: The garbage is ready to be thrown out? Shall she bribe one or the other to dig another large hole in the dready porous back yard, and bury the usual dear little potato parings with the usual ceremonies and grumblings? Or. shall she bribe him to wait until the middle of some dark night and row out to the middle >f the lakes, of which we are so jroud and wish to keep pure and sweet as all good little lakes are required to be by law, on pain of punishment to the potato paring bootlegger—and there »n the hush of solitude, dispose of the potato evidence? Or shall she stack them up, one upon another and other things, to wait until winter ?omes and the furnace is going and willing to receive them? Those tears are needless and will do no real practical good. What all little potato parings wed are permanent resting places, to which they are conducted by garbage wagons. There is some profit in it i’or some one. It has been called to our attention that west of St. Louis there ?s a huge concern that feeds train 'loads of garbage from Los Angeles, daily, to thousands of hogs. As for coffee grounds—but why go into that? ♦ Miss Geneva Rasor and mother of Roanoke, are spending this week in the Sam Rasor home. O.
