.M,tDOO'S ADVICE

In warning national banks that
government funds distributed for
crop moving purposes must not be
misused. excessive interest rates
rates charged or legitimate credit re-
fused, Secretary Of til Treasury NC
sdoo declared there is no reason for
the cotton producer and the manu-
facturer to feel pessimistic. Here's
how the secretary Of the treasury re-
CARDS the situation:
"1f the banks, the merchants and
the manufacturers throughout the
South will quit taking counsel OF
fear and will go forward with conf
dence the situation will, believe, i'm
prove still further.
"A decidedly encouraging develop
ment in the cotton situation is the re-
sumption Of export shipments from
Galveston. which have been reported
to me as follows:
September 14,2,25s bales; 18th,
3,lO7 bales; 18th, $500 bales; 18th, o.
500 bales; 10th. $3.50 bales; totals, 81
us bales.
These are the first shipments from
European war. From the port Of New
York there have been exported be-
tween September ! and Septembr -
5,576 bales; from philadelphia there
was exported on September 10, 1,45O
bales.
",These reports indicate that the
foreign demand for cotton is reasscrt
ing itself, and that it will increase In
volume"
For the month of August, 1914. the
total exports or cotton amounted t.
only 21,210 bales, whereas, for Angus
1913, the total exports were 257 .1G'
bales, showing decrease in cottor
exports for the month of August
1914, over the same month OF las
year of $4,000 bales. This indicate
deferred demand for cotton, which
ought TO he encouraging to the cottol
producers and shippers in this coun
try, because large part OF this de
mand will certainly have to be salts

| London, Sept 22.-German subma-
rines have destroyed in the NNth sea
the three British cruisers Aboukir,
Hogue and Cressy, according to an
official statement issued late this at
ternoon by the official press bureau
of the war office. Neither the time
nor the scene of the disaster is given.
| A considerable number of the crews
/ of the three cruisers were rescued by
the British warship LoWestoft, British
torpedo boat destroyer and fishing
| trawlers.
The Aboukir was torpedoed first.
The Hogue and the Greasy drew in
close to her and were standing by to
save her crew, when they also were
destroyed.
| The warships Aboukir. Hogue and
i Cressy were cruisers CT the same
type. Their tonnage and armament
/ were identical. These vessels had a
displacement Of $4,000 tons. were 4i0
feet long, 695 feet wide, and drew 26
feet of water Each one had com
plement of 755 men, including officers
These three cruisers had ornaments
consisting of two 90 inch guns
twelve 6-inch guns. twelve 12-pound-
ers. and five 3-pounders. The Abonkir
and the Cressy were built at Govan
in 1909, and the Hogue was built at
Barrow in the same year.

WESTERN CANADA
CAME INTO EVIDENCE
AT THE CRUCIAL PERIOD FOR
SUPPLY OF WORLDS FOOD
STUFFS.

The present demand for foodstuffs
in all parts of the world, and the ex-
pense OF producing il on ghpriced
lands, would make 1t seem that west.
ern Canada came into evidence at the
crucial period. There is to be found
the opportunity that will be large
factor in meeting this demand. With
its millions of acres of land. easily
cultiyatable, highly productive. acces.
sible TO railways, and with unexcelled
climatic conditions, the opportunities
that are offered and afforded are too
great to be overlooked
There have been booms in almost
every civilized country and they were
looked upon as. such. and in the course
Of time the bubble was pricked and
was burst But in no country has the
development been as great nor as
rapid, whether in city or in country,
as in western Canada.
The provinces of Manitoba, Sas-
katchewan and Alberta have the larg-
est area OF desirable lands on the
North American continent, and their
cultivation has just begun.
Even with a two hundred million
bushel wheat crop less than eight
per cent. of the land ID under the
ploughs. four per cent. being in wheat.
Less than five years ago the wheat
crop was only 1000 600 bushels. II
is a simple calculation 10 estimate
that II four per cent. OF the available
cultivatable area produces something
over 200, 100000 bushels, what will A
per cent produce? And then look al
the immigration that is coming into
the country. In 1901 IL was 49,l49
1900 being from the United States
In 1906 It was lS9, ,064, OF which $1,000
were Americans. and In 1913 II wat
about 400 900, OF which about 10000
were Americans. But why have they
gone TO Canada? The American farm

himself, and similarly for all his sons
who are adult and OF age upon land'
as rich and fertile as those he left
and producing indeed several bushels
TO the acre In excess of anything h

from making the change.
And then, too, there is the America,
capital following the capital OF brawT
muscle and sinew, following II so a
to keep in touch with the industriou
farmer with which II has had dealing
for years back. This capital and tn
capital OF farming experience is N
small matter in the building up OF

1t is not the most expensive nor the
greatest variety of food that makes
our tables enviable; II is the food TO
the cooking Of which the most atten-
tion is paid A certain cookery book
gives 300 ways of cooking potatoes;
yet plenty OF ignorant cooks and un-
trained housewives think usually OF
only four ways OF cooking this staple
egetable-boiling, frying, mashing
and baking-four good ways. to be
sure, but much that is good becomes
monotonous.
II behooves the potato cook first to
understand the four usual methods, OF
course. Baked potatoes should be thor
oughly scrubbed before they are
cooked. They should be as even and
smooth as possible When they are
half done they should be pricked with
fork to allow the moisture inside to
escape, so that they will be mealy.
They should be thoroughly cooked.
Boiled potatoes should be cooked In
boiling. not only hot, water. When
they are done pour off the water and
let them stand in the open door Of the
oven for few moments to become
mealy. Spread a piece of cheesecloth
over the saucepan in which they
stand. Mashed potatoes should be
thoroughly boiled. and then mashed
smooth. They may be put through a
ricer. Then hot milk, melted butter
and pepper and salt should be added,
little milk at time. They should
then be beaten to creaminess in the
top OF a double boiler with a large
dover egg beater They should be
served hot Fried potatoes should be
fried In fat that is very hot to begin
with. Thus a crust is formed. The
heat may then be reduced slightly 30
that the potatoes do not burn.
Potato omelst is a delicious lunch
con dish. For 1t, cut cold boiled po-
tatoes into quarter-inch squares.
Cover them with white sauce. Put
the mixture into frying pan in which
