to be such a purchaser The scorn
comes on the other side in Europe,
and is expended rightly on the will
ful and useless extravaganza of buy
ing more than you can use and
throwing half of it out to waste.
In connection with our lew mar
kets, furnishing smaller quantities of
meat at the same average as at
present, we should aim to encourage
cur farmers to give us a larger sup
ply of herbs for seasoning and of
green things for salads than we now
have. Two suggestions come to us
from the daily habit of European
housekeepers. We should encourage
the cultivation of edible birds for
the table to bring them within the
price available for the ordinary
household. and with the addition Of
these various edible birds will come
the hare, that in Germany is Sach
good eating.
! The most important of all the les
sons we can learn from Europe is
to train ourselves to plan ahead,
and give time to allow all the good
ness of our materials to be used to
the best advantage. 1t is fore
thought that makes it possible to
use left-overs to advantage. There
are many good and easy ways of
using bits of meat or fish or vegeta-
bles left from yesterday, beside the
usual "warming-up" that is so un-
attractive and unpalatable. The
trained mind in the kitchen will de-
wise economical and delicious dishes

this effort that these bits of good
food are thrown away, and the cost

the working out of better customs

housekeeping more feasible and
satisfactory for us all. Fortunately
the number of such women is rapid
ly increasing, and the number of
kitchens dominated by ignorant,
obstinate, and extravagant servants
is gradually lessening, while house

quence becoming rapidly more de-
sirable and attractive to a more in

To Get Fire Under Control {.
Water Gets Hot.

At the dinner hour Saturday the
alarm of fire ran through the dining
room of the hotel Ross, and the
guests made a rush for their valu-
ables which they removed safely.
The fire originated in the rear
near the kitchen chimney and spread
rapidly under the tin roof. The
family living rooms and dining
room were damaged by water and
the kitchen is almost a total wreck.
Mr. Lamson said that he carried
some insurance but not enough to
cover the damage.
The building belongs to the Cox
estate, and the furniture is the
property of Frank Lamson. His
son-in-law, Fred Cole, has had
charge of the business for several
months. He is loud in praise of the
service given by the firemen and eiti-
zens generally.
Mrs. Fannie Harris was unable to
get down stairs and was taken down

The firemen worked like fury fol-
nearly an hour before they got the
fire subdued. The heat was so great
that the water ran hot from the
building.
The sheet iron roof that covered
the dining room section, held the
fire from breaking out, but the en-
tire sheeting and rafters underneath
are burned to cinders. 1t is i'm.
possible at this time to estimate the
loss. but it will amount to several

Slxty-one years ago a report was
made to the governor of Indiana, to
the effect that Marshall county con-
tanned some 1920 acres of what
was called swamp land That was
land that was marsh, and as then
found, unfit for cultivation. Such
as must be drained to be of value
as farm property. BY the County
Surveyor scale there are about
290,64O acres in Marshall county. 1t
will thus be seen that practically
one-sixth of the acreage of the
county was swamp land. Asking
the present surveyor, Mr.. Schoon-
over, for a rough estimate of the
acreage of such land In the county
today, he gives his opinion, not in
definite figures, but approximately,
and fully large. He says that 1000
acres will cover all there is in the
county.
This will serve to give an idea of
the value of the county in the
measure of farm lands. as compared
with sixty-one years ago.

Many Indiana cities are passing
ordinances providing for the trim
ming of shade trees infected with
the San Jose scale and the system
attic spraying of all shade trees. 1t
is admitted that only drastic mea-
sures can save the shade trees, as
thousands of them are infested with
scale and other parasitical pests.
In the last few years these pests
have gained such foothold that cit
les are awakening to the danger of
losing all shade trees within very
few years, unless means are found
to destroy them or restrain their
spread. These trimming and spray
ing ordinances, if properly enforced
will save the trees. it is believed

Head On Collision On Lake Erie &
Western Road Injuries Several People

Another big smash up on the Lake
Erie & Western read occurred at
$50 Friday evening at the Muck
shaw, just south of Plymouth. The
loss is heavy, there being three en-
gines and several freight ears made
into scrap iron and splinters. The
personal injuries consist In a brok-
en- arm and several badly bruised
aud battered men and women.
The passenger train that is
scheduled to leave Plymouth station
at sos p. m. was late, and the agent
at the station deliyered orders to
both the conductor and engineer Civ
ing them directions to run 80 min
utes late. Wishing to make up all
time possible, and misunderstanding
the orders in some way, the conduc.
tor gave the signal to pull out, not
knowing that there was a special
freight ~coming north at full speed.
Reaching the city limits, and cross
ing the river bridge, the engineer
was gathering speed on his way to
Argos A mile south of the station
he saw coming toward him the heavy
freight with two engines. AT the
same instant. the freight engineer
saw the passenger. There was no
time to stop. The freight engineer
gave the signal to his crew, and they
jumped as best they could, rolling
down the steep bank, to the wire
fences along the side. All of them
are much bruised up, but are not
seriously injured.

freight men In jumping, and with
the same result. They saved their
lives, but the engines are most COM

such that the passenger engine was
driven back some twenty feet OF
more. leaving clear space between
them.
The passengers were first thrown
from their seats by the reversing
of the engine, then the shock of the
collision, and then the rebound, AZ
