THINGS WORTH KNOWING.

To keep wood pulleys on carpet
sweeper from slipping after they
have worn smooth, simply wrap once
or twice with adhesive tape. This
will also keep the wood pulleys from
wearing unevenly with the grain of
the wood.
An ordinary clothspfn split in two
is an excellent utensil for scrapping
out cooking vessels. The soft wood
does not scratch them as metal does
and it can be burned when soiled.
To clean silverware easily, drop in
sour milk for 20 minutes, then wash
and dry as usual.
Adding a little sugar to water, for
cut flowers, keeps them fresh longer.
An old blackboard eraser is one of
the best things to use for polishing the
kitchen stove.
To keep cheese for some time, and
prevent it becoming moldy or dry
wrap it in a cloth dampened with
vinegar and keep it in dish.
When baking elderberry pie put in
pinch OF salt and few drops of vim
egar. This will improve the taste
To keep doughnuts moist when
taking them from the hot lard dip as
quickly as possible in and out of boil
ing later. They will be less greasy
and keep moist a long time.

them to cook In the juice of the
steak until quite brown. Before
taking them out put in generous
piece of butter Season with salt
and pepper. They can hardly be

boiled as turnips are. Boil until

TRY TO RAISE MONEY TO
CONTINUE CANAL SURVEY
Boosters Say Temporary Suspension
Would Cause Great Setback
I'm Work Accomplished.

Efforts are being made TO bring
about means by which money can be
raised to promote the work OF sur
Veying the Michigan Erie canal, even
though the funds are not appropri-
ated by legislation.
J. w. Caswell, president of the
Huntington Commercial club, and
vice president of the canal Organiza-
ton. asserts in bulletins being sent
out that unless some action is taken
Immediately work will be suspended.
for time at least, which would cause
a great deal OF difficulty with the
work already done.
The appropriation made some time
ago by the government of 1000 has
been practically all expended. II is
asserted that the passage of the rivers
and harbors bill last week will take
care Of the project later. but that the
funds will run out before the bill be-
comes law. Appeals are being made
to enthusiasts along the route for spe-
cial donations.
Fort Wayne enthusiasts are espe-
cially being appealed TO for support
as the cost of the Fort Wayne force
has largely caused the exceeding eX-
penditure. Many things could hap
pen. so engineers say, if such thing
should come TO mass that no money
is available TO continue the work.
The routes established so far all in
clude Fort Wayne, but there is a pos
sibility that. in the event that Fort
Wayne people do not respond and
work there be suspended. the present
force might be succeeded by a new
stan Of men and the old Harris route
might be considered. The Harris
route is considered a feasible water
way, but il was dropped when Fort
WaVne DeODle some time ago urged
that another plan lie followed so as
to make the canal pass through that
city. The Harris route leaves the
Miami river northeast Of Fort Wayne
and would miss il by a number Of
miles

BIG VARIETY OF PRODUCE
ON PUBLIC MART TUESDAY

The public market was swamped
Tuesday morning with reasonable
vegetables of all kinds. Fruit is
gradually disappearing. There has
never been a time when SO much to-
matOes. celery, mango peppers. green
and wax beans, Cucumbers and pickles
were on sale. Prices were decisiVely
in favor of buyers.
The market did not clean up even
at L concessions. there being a good
supply on hand at 1880 o'clock, the
usual closing time. Tomatoes again
sold at 20-25 cents per half bushel
Large quantities of potatoes were on
hand and sold fast at 20 cents a bu-
shell. II is figured that there were
more than 600 bushels on hand, the
largest number this year. The vege-
table and fruit season is fast draw
ing 10 a close. although there is con-
siderable fall vegetable produce.
There seems To be a fair supply Of
sweet potato offerings.
Varying news gave grain prices a
wide range of prices causing con-
tinued fluctuations among the COM
mission buyers. The price for wheat
still maintained its place at 81, al
though the fact that Chicago markets
are higher caused local purchasers to
promise better prices probably by
Wednesday. Hogs and cattle were
quoted at the same figure Tuesday al
though decline in values is believed
at hand

WILSON AND CABINET
STILL FOR NEUTRALITY

WASHINGTON, Sept. %. - Pres.
Wilson and his cabinet today took up
the question OF bringing the American
troops back from Vera cruz. Ii is
understood the whole Mexican situa-
ton was cauvassed and an attitude
of strict neutrality on the part of this
government toward the new situation
IN the republic was determined.
IL is admitted that while theoret-
ically the Carranza-Nilla break Will

likely Will result in delaying the actual
Withdrawal. The impression is gen
eral among diplomats that the actual
