The Washburn leader. [volume] (Washburn, McLean County, N.D.) 1890-1986, 1915-11-05

In q recent interview Miss Mabel T.
Boardman states:
II should like every American wom-
IN to understand elementary hygiene,
home care Of the sick and first aid to
the injured. l should like her to have
a reliable teacher, however.
"In their relief work American WON
en- need discipline and organization
more than they need impulse and en-
thusiasm. We had examples Of this so
repeatedly when the war first broke
out. Women came to us for work; they
wanted to help. will you go to the
registers Office and do this or that?' we
would ask. oh, I don't think I am
suited for that Will you go here or
there? No; I don't care for that
And SO it went. The women had no
idea Of doing what was needed to be
done, no idea Of obeying orders, as It
were, and this in spite of the fact that
they meant to be helpful.
"Then' also the women have been SO
apt to want to push the personal note
to it's limits. They prepare boxes for a
particular family in a particular coun-
try and stop to think that the de.
livery Of such a specialized parcel
would be practically impossible. The
case of the women who made pajamas
and put molasses candy in the pockets
illustrates my point. The candy melted
and ruined the pajamas, of course. and
all the fine fervor that prompted the
act was Offset by the utter ineficiency.
'"rhe Red Cross aims at perfect or
%ganization. 1t is the only official or
%ganization for relief that the govern
ment has and therefore the only ole
that the foreign countries respect.
For that reason American women can
do their best relief work in connection
with the Red Cross. Private enterprise
doesn't get very far. Women can start
their little bands for European relief.
but they can't get their supplies
through. Being unofficial. their pass.
ports come twice as hard, If at all.
"The Red Cross Is absolutely respect
ed. though there have been reports
that Red Cross ambulances have been
fired at. This has never been true ex-
cept when the cross could not he seer
at a distance. OF course ambulance
drivers and nurses at the front take
their chances. That is the fortune Of
war, not the deliberate attack of fight
ing ranks.
1.-The Red Cross wants American wo-
men to learn how to obey Instructions,
to follow orders, to be helpful In the
right way. which is in any way that
comes to hand.
'ID time of peace" says Miss Board
man, women have patriotic duty. and
that is again concerned with the health
OF the nation. This time women's work
is preventive, however, not curative"

WHY COUNTY ROADS FAIL.

Road Specialists of Department Of A.
rieuIturs Place the Responsibility.
Where a county builds a good road
and soon let's it become rutty, washed
out or uneven, who or what is prin-
cipally to blame? As a result Of q
study Of conditions in a number Of
counties. road specialists Of the de-
partment are inclined to place the re-
sponsibility upon the following defects
in road management, some or all Of
which are found in all counties where
good roads are not properly repaired
and maintained:
Nrst.-COunty boards, although hav-
ing full administrative authority, ap-
pear not to attach to their official &C.
ton in road matters the importance Or
legal effect which it should have.
Second.-County boards do not gen
orally have sufficient accounting con
troll Of road funds to know what is
available for any particular project.
where funds have been or where ex-
listing balances are to be expended.
Third.-Lack Of any systematic prac-
tice in handling road funds among
most counties makes it very difficult to
carry out over eve a single year any
persistent maintenance policy, because
funds officially obligated for main
tenance purposes are not protected
against sporadic and irregular drafts
for miscellaneous purposes. The great
est likelihood consequently exists ev-
erywhere that there will be no balance
in the maintenance fund in the last
half or third Of the year, although only
a part of the fund allotted may have
been spent.
Fourth.-Local labor available for
maintenance work is made dissatisfied
by the constant. unintelligent and I'M
favorable criticism of those using the
road.
Fffth.-Maintenance continuing over
a period of years-the ultimate indis-
pensable condition Of effective main
tenance-is jeopardized by the lack Of
accounting control that will prevent
spending next years current income in
this year.
Sixth.-The lack Of skilled supervi-
sion in construction and the effect Of
this in increasing the cost OF in making
effective maintenance impossibly ex-
pensive is everywhere seen.
Seventh.-The county authorities are
commonly opposed to following sug-
gestions for maintenance that involve
tying up road funds in any way, such
as purchasing materials in advance to
store along the road for making repairs
or maintaining the road surface.

HOW TO MAKE PorPoURRI
WITHOUT A ROSE GARDEN.

Rose potpourri' is undoubtedly
the favorite, though it is not by
any means the sweetest or only
kind. To make it is simple. Col.
lect together as many rose petals
as possible, those of old fashion
ed roses for preference. and be
sure they ire free from blight
or disease. Arose garden is not
wanted. With a little energy
one can collect a lot of rose
leaves, especially by getting all
ones friends to assist in the
task. Dry the petals in the sun
and weigh them. Say there is a
quarter Of a pound of rose leaves.
Then mix with them these
spices: Two ounces each Of COM
mon salt and bay salt, one ounce
of powdered orris root. one-quar-
ter ounce each of cloves. pow
dered cinnamon. powdered mace
and allspice. Mix together in a
jar and keep closely covered.
stirring every day for a month.
The following potpourri is
easier still to make. since all
kinds of scented flowers can be
used in it-violets. roses. thyme.
lemon. verbena, cowslips. lilacs,
lilies. lavender. ETC.: Pull the
petals from large flowers and
break the heads off the tiny
ones, and put the flowers into a
jar as they are obtained. Be-
tween each layer of flowers
sprinkle a little common salt.
powdered mace and powdered
cinnamon, a fairly thick sprin-
king, varied according to the
quantity Of flowers. Keep the
jar covered, and when it is full
and the flowers are brown and
dry stir all together.

HOW TO- CAN.

Germs or Bacteria Must Be Destroyed
to Bring Success.
The theory of sterilization or the
complete killing of germs and spores
must be understood by Gamers.
This last point is where many a
h~ousekeeper needs more education.
Sometimes she may wonder why the
tomatoes didn't keep" or why she
didn't have any luck with corn. She
must know that both vegetables and
fruits are subject to attack from germs
or microscopic plants like mold. These
germs Dr. bacteria must be killed en-
tirely in order that the food does not
become affected by their continued
growth. Such bacteria can flourish
only when they have air and certain
conditions of moisture and heat. High
temperature kills these bacteria. This
high temperature and exclusion from
air are the two facts which need to be
watched In all canning.
Such a temperature is from $50 to
212 degrees F. Unless the food is sub
jected to this temperature for u longer
or shorter period. depending on the
kind Of food, there can be no certainty
that the bacteria are killed.
In various sections of the country
it is the practice to S preserving
powders sold with the purpose Of max
ing canning successful" These pow
ders are unnecessary and. worse still.
dangerous. as many cases of poisoning
have resulted where they have been
used. II the idea of sterilization is I'm
,derstood and carefully followed there
will be no need for ~preservatives.
Heat is the best preservative.
One Of the most common ways of
canning Is to ill the Jars and place on
wooden strips in the bottom OF a wash
boiler. The objection to this method
is the mussiness and general unclean-
illness. The wash boiler car be replaced
by a steam cooker. which gives the
same results with far less effort and
watching. which holds from eight to
twenty-fonr Jars. They are made with
a copper bottom to hold the water and
a rack Oh which to set the Jars. The
Jars are fil!ed as usual with the fruit
or vegetables and cold water. the cap
is adjusted firmly and the jar IL then
set on the rack In the cooker. The
lower compartment IL kept full OF
boiling water. and without any fur
Their effort or attention the jars can
be sterilized in tie cooker for as long
as is necessary. There is no unpleas-
ant lifting OF water or boiler. but a
convenient, clean and simple handling.

ROAD PROBLEM AND FARMERS
Improved Country Highways Means
Cheaper Transportation.

Improved Country Highways Means
Cheaper Transportation.
Each year the importance of good
roads becomes more manifest to every
intelligent farmer. says the Home and
Farm. The expense Of the crop is not
finished with the harvest. You have
to transport the cotton. or your meat,
or your wheat, or whatever you have
raised to the market. You must ar.
range to reach the nearest railroad sta
ton at the least possible cost.
That means that. in order to reduce
this transportation charge. you must
have better roads and you must have
the best carrying vehicle.
What that vehicle is will depend
upon a great many considerations
your distance from the railroad sta
tion. the character Of your crop and
the character Of your farming.
But whether you haul your goods to
market in a wagon drawn by horses
or whether you carry it to market IN
an automobile truck your roads must
be in good order IL you are going to do
this work at the least possible cost.
You do not waste money in improv-
ing your roads. but where money is
wasted is in neglecting your roads.
paying your taxes or employing your
labor unwisely, ineffectively. In many
cases roads are no sooner finished than
their defects become apparent.
There are two road c~xpenses-the
building Of the road first and the main
tenance Of the road. 1t cannot be too
often repeated that good roads are not
luxuries. They are necessities. and to
have the best roads at the least posi-
