Peter knisely may make his 1915 debut with the Cubs in Philadelphia today. The Teuton departed from Birmingham yes- terday morning, confident that he would cause the Philadelphia twirers to quake in their boots when he appeared at the plate.
 Before the heavy hitting outfelder de- parted, he gave out an additional bit of information about the Federals. The Chi- cago Feds were not alone in their vain efforts to land him. but had company. The Buffalo Feds had wired the Dutch man to send them his best terms. Had the chifed scout been unwilling to make a lucrative offer, Pete intended hurdling to Buffalo.
 Joe Tinker, manager of the Chicago Feds, was very much peeved when he lost knisely to the Cubs for he wanted the Teuton for a right-handed hitting outfielder. Larry Schafy, leader of the

Cooperation Among Farmers

agency through which the great share
of business transactions OF farms Is
conducted.
The first great result of the saving
through corporation is the owner
shio of the farms by the farmers who
till them In Denmark the outlook
for farm ownership by the cultivators
of the soil was dubious until the adj
vent of the cooperative bacon fac
tory, creamery and egg selling COM
pany. Now 90 per cent of the farms
are farmed by their owners In Ger
many there was every evidence that
farms were on the point of passing
into hte hands of a landlord class
when cooperation saved the day. and
seven out of every eight farms are OPP
Grated by the men who own them. 1t
is the same in other countries where
cooperation has developed.
Not only have the farmers been
able to hold possession of their farms,
but by banding themselves together
they have developed a community
shirt which enables them to see that
what helps one helps the rest, and
what hurts one hurts them all. Com
petition with the cheap lands of Amer
lea. and especially with the soil rob-
Der methods of America, has made
II hard for the European farmer to
live, but cooperation has made up for
a large part of the disadvantage.

How to Build Fireless Cooker
Cooking Will of Wonderful Aid to All Who Are
Compelled to Rise Early

The packing material may consist
of hay, excelsior, cork, sawdust or
any non-conducting material.
Cover the bottom of the box, pack
ing down tight with sawdust, for eX-
ample, six or eight inches deep.
Aluminium Containers
Choose preferably aluminium con-
tanners, but agate and earthenware
are excellent. Pals are suitable, with
high handles. Cut a double piece of
asbestos to exactly fit the bottom of
the container, and another the depth
of the box six inches Flat seam this
and overland to the flat, round pieces
first out. Slip in the chosen recep-
tacle, place in the box and pack the
sawdust firmly around it to the top
of the box. A cushion packed with
sawdust and one side covered with as
bestos should be made to fit on top OF
the receptacle and inside the hole.
Then the top covering or lining may
be cut out of cardboard or asbestos to
exactly fit the box. Mark the center
and draw a circle by means of com
pass adjusted to the exact radius OF
the container. Cut outward from the
center of the circle to the circumfer-
ence and bend the pieces back and
fit the cover into place, lacking or
glueing the outside edges, and glueing
the pieces cut in the cover to the out
side of the asbestos lining of the hole,
Soapstone disks, to serve as radi-
ators, make the reconstructed
cooker a prize indeed, for then the
baking and roasting may be accom-
plished within it also. These can be
purchased in the department stores
for very little. One is placed inside
the asbestos-lined hole, below the
utensil, and the other serves as
cover to the container. Foods such
that require a long cooking, hence
saving more wonderful flavor, it would
seem, when cooked in the home-con-
structed cooker.

NROBODY appreciates better than
INV the man or woman forced by
circumstances to make an early
morning start the convenience and
comfort of a fireless cooker. 1t is
disheartening to most folks to go out
into the chilly gloom of midwinter
morning and snatch breakfast en-
route.
Oatmeal brought to a simmer the
night before and tucked costly to bed
in the fireless cooker will emerge in
the morning, steaming and deliciously
cooked. Coffee and water, placed in
the pereolator before retiring, need
only the touch of a match to the
alcohol wick during the morning proc
ess of dressing to be ready, hot and
steaming, when the oatmeal is placed
on the table.
The principle of the cooker" is to
retain the heat. which is generated by
the use of any ordinary coal, gas or oil
fire. The outside cool air cannot
reach the utensils, nor the inside hot
air escape.
Choose Heavy Box
One, two or accompaniment
cookers may be made.
Choose a close, heavy boarded pack
ing box, win close fitting cover
First line inside of lid with cardboard
or asbestos, then fasten c'eat, about
two inches deep, securely around the
cover, closing cracks and fitting an
giles. Line the box, front, back, sides
and bottom, also with the cardboard
or preferably with asbestos. In any
case, the lining must fit exactly, no
crevices or cracks; it is well to crease
extra pieces and fit them into the
angles, and all should be securely
glued.
Next, the cover may be hinged in.
Use two pairs of large size, flat hinges
and five close-fitting fasteners for the
front and sides. The ordinary hook
and screw eye make very tight clos
ing.
