GOOD DESSERTS
FOR BUSY PEOPLE

This is the busy season for every.
men but also the housewives are hard
pressed to get things done on time.
For besides the usual spring clean
ing, many farm women are taking al
most entire charge of the poultry plant
and hence do not have much extra
time to spend on ''fussy" menus.
Puddings are always acceptable des-
serts and If made correctly are always
sure to please the tired and hungry
field workers at MONDAY. Chocolate
and tapioca, which may be purchased
cheaply at the grocery, make splendid
foundations on which to build these
"hasty" buildings.
These recipes were suggested by
Mrs. Nellie Kedzie Jones, one of Wis
consin's Farmers institute workers.
Chocolate Bread Pudding-Two
eggs, one pint milk, one-half cupful
sugar, one cupful bread, one square
of chocolate. Bake 80 minutes. If
the bread is very dry, one cupful is
ample; if it is very moist, it will take
more of it. 1t is always possible to
vary this pudding by adding raisins
and spices. Bake about half an hour
in a slow oven. If the bread rises to
the top while baking, it should be
stirred frequently. 1t may be served
with butter.
Steamed Chocolate Pudding-One
egg, one-half cupful sugar. one square
chocolate, one-half cupful milk, one
cupful flour, two tablespoonful melted
butter, two teaspoonfuls baking pow
der. Steam in cups 20 minutes.
Tapioca Pineapple Pudding-Soak
the tapioca while opening the canned
pineapple. Use four tablespoonfuls OF
tapioca and add one-half cupful Of wa.
ter, stirring in a dish on the stove
until it becomes warm. Cut pineapple
into small pieces. A tablespoonful OF
sugar is ample, as the pineapple it.
self is very sweet. Butter baking pan
well on bottom, as tapioca sticks to
an ungreased dish. Four cupfuls OF
water added before baking will be sui.
ficient. Put in layer of tapioca and
then layer Of pineapple and sugar,
Repeat, having a layer of pineapple
on top. The dish need not be covered
while baking, as the pineapple seldom
shrivels like other fruit. Bake half an
hour and serve cold with cream.

DON'T SLOW DOWN AT
The DULL BUSINESS TIMES

Did you ever stand and watch
train start? See the engine
puff and pull; the driving wheels
spin around on the track; then
slowly the drivers grip the rails
and the train begins to move.
But what an enormous amount
of energy it takes to start that
train from standstill.
Just so it is with your bust
ness. Advertising is the loco
motive that pulls the train and it
takes vast amount of putting
and pulling to bring your bust
ness speed up to schedule.
No train could maintain it's
schedule if it's engineer closed the
throttle and let her coast just be-
cause he had gotten up speed; he
urges his engine on and on, keep
ing up his speed so that the mo-
mentum of his train does half the
work.
There's a business moral for
you. Keep a-moving. If bust
ness seems to be Stacking up,
open your throttle, chuck more
coal under the boiler and keep up
your momentum.
The Democrat is the motive
power of many big business.
It is an engine of home power,
the most powerful and depend
able type.

Perhaps because the country
needs them less, the annual cleanup
and paint-up campaign is usually
confined to towns and cities.
There is, however, cause for action
On many of our farms. For "a coat
of good paint brightens, gives an air
of enterprise, and cheer and thrift, and
preserves wood indefinitely if applied
from time to time as needed. Paint
makes wood waterproof and airproof
and prevents decay. Anyone who can
WELD brush can learn to paint. Then
buy good paint, brighten up, look
prosperous, and well-cared for We
have known a coat of paint on set
of farm buildings to add several thou
sand dollars to the selling value of
the place"
Dewitt Wing, we'll known to hun
dreds Of Wisconsin farmers, has just
supplied us with still more reasons
for a good thorough cleanup. Here
they are just as he gave them:
'The creator gave to the country a
peculiar charm. Beauty-beauty of
blade and blossom, of hill and hollow
of daydawn and sunset-comes as the
birthright of every person who is coun-
try-born. In the springtime nature
writes in pink her orchard proclama-
ton of plenty, and in late summer and
fall time fills the fields with grains

of gold Sometimes civilization has
clustered, but never has nature. What
ever there is of ugliness in the great
out-of-doors is man made. Beauty is
a part of the farmers unearned incre-
ment. Health, too, should be for him
and his-health and happiness, best

for friends. Because we absorb en-
virOnments," farm cleanup day may
result in better living, higher thinking
yes, and better health. 1t may also
play no small part in the solution of a
big problem, that of keeping on the
farms of the nation larger number
of agriculturally trained and efficient
men and women. Such as these will
find in their work not only living but
a life. They will share in the spirit
of joy in the excellence of produc-
tion.'
There is almost no end to the things
that can be done to make the home
grounds more attractive. But the
alert farm boy needs no list to show
him what can be done and more than
likely before he gets through with the
job he will have thought out a suit

CHARLES s. HAMLIN, GOVERNOR OF FED
EnAL RESERVE BOARD.
ton Is unnecessary to accomplish these
ends In some states it is held that the
state banks may enter the reserve sys-
tenn without special legislation; in 9th
ers that national banks may act as
trustees, etc, without violation of any
state law.
Great interest has been taken in the
development Of the states attitude to-
ward these questions, for much will
depend on this. If courts and law Off
GERS had put obstacles IL tie way OF
establishing the needed parity of pow
ers in these regards between different
classes of banks and if legislatures had
generally been indisposed to remove
these difficulties the uniication of the
banking system might have been post
poned Indefinitely.
In that event there would presently
have arisen in congress Il party dis
posed to pass legislation compelling the
state banks in some fashion to take
federal charters. Just that proposal
has been discussed in some legislative
quarters, though always with recogni-
ton that it would be highly undesir-
able and only to be adopted as last
resort
When the national banking system
was established as civil war measure
to create a market for government
~ 70
10 per cent tax on state bank issues
and thus force those banks in order to
retain the issue privilege to reorganize
as national banks
But in present conditions, in which
the power of issue is not much priced
and is in process of extinction, it is not
very apparent how state banks are to
be forced into the national system,
even If it were deemed desirable to
take such an extreme measure.
1t is generally believed that the leg
islation could not be passed anyhow.
1t would more likely have the effect of
arousing an antagonism that it is par
ticularly desired to avoid.
The developing sentiment of the
states seems certain to put quietus on
suggestions of drastic measures. They
are opening the way to desired results.
A summary Of state legislation-or
administrative action, which serves the
same purpose-indicates that very
shortly most of the states will have ac-
quiesced In the purposes which the re-
serve law contemplates.
New York, for instance, where there
was vigorous opposition from some
quarters, has passed an act giving state
banks power to subscribe for stock In
the Federal Reserve bank.
In Massachusetts, the legislature has
passed an act authorizing trust COM
panies to subscribe for reserve bank
stock There are no state banks in
Massachusetts.
Connecticut has thus far been dis
tinctly hostile. The legislature defeat
ed bill comforting the fiduciary pow
ers on national banks, and the attorney
general rendered an opinion that 1t
was Every doubtful" whether state
banks could tai;e reserve bank stock.

telligence In a worthy movement.

-
The safe and sane Fourth idea has
become to be nearly a fixed habit as
was the former irrational method OF
risking life and health not only to the
person engaging in the useless form OF
celebration but to those around him.
Aside from the advanced view of
celebrating the national holiday with
out the use of dangerous firearms thus
avoiding accidents, physicians have
learned how to treat wounds against
tetanus to such degree that it is be-
lieved every wound can be successfully
treated if given immediate attention.
In spite of the usual cautions preced-
ing the celebration there are some
liable to be wounded and it is well
enough to know that the wound should
be given proper attention.

Fewer Tetanus Victims.

Milwaukee News: A triumph in
medicine and surgery is seen in the
success which attends the treatment of
wounds which may cause tetanus.
Particularly is this noticeable in the
statistics on Independence day acct
dents. In 1902 the number of cases of
death from tetanus reported were AT.
In 1909 science reduced this number to
1870 and in 1914 only three cases were
reported.
During this period there has been a
strong sentiment against the use OF
firearms most likely to produce tetanus
which had a tendence to lessen the
number of cases. This sentiment has
been reflected by the public press in a
manner so effectively that it shows the
impressiveness of appealing to the in

The remaining five per cent is

Miles On a Raft.

HOUSTON, Texas, Aug. 1S.-One
of the most thrilling storm stories
that has reached Houston is that of
r.. ID. Armstrong of Morgan Point,
who hung on to a raft and drifted for
nine miles, buffeted by the strong
current and the wind, before he
twas finally rescued He was picked
up by the yacht Mary Ina and taken
to Harrisburg.
Mr.. Armstrong lost all his poses
sions in the storm. His greatest
anxiety now is for his 15-year- boy,
Justin, for whose safety he entertains
grave fears.
Many brave feats were performed
by soldiers of the United States army
during the dangerous hours at Texas
city one especially noteworthy act
was that of Sergeant Petty who swan
nearly a mile carrying a two-months'-
old baby, the infant Of the express
agent at Texas City. After landing
the baby safely, he returned and
brought in the mother and another
older child. Sergeant Petty was form
erly of the life saving station at Gal
