PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT.
Try to Keep Well.

A knowledge of the law of i'm
munity teaches that when our
health is at its best our resisting
power is at it's best; hence we
say we are immune to disease.
While it is wise and necessary to
avoid, control and destroy dis
ease producing germs whenever
found, it is very necessary to
render the body as nearly i'm
mune as possible and then keep
it in that condition.

A good deal of attention will be paid

However, Mrs. Percy v. Pennypack-

of the machine and began to investi-
gate it. A famous Hamburg chemical
concern, interested in the problem of
drying certain chemicals that spoil in
a short time, finally took hold of the
machine. But before it did. Herr
Krause gave the members of the firm
unique entertainment.
In their presence in his laboratory,
he poured a quantity of milk into the
machine and dried it to powder. He
repeated the process with number of
eggs. In succession, potatoes, fruit
and a number of other edibles were re-
duced to powder. The various pow
ders then were taken to a kitchen in
the inventors home.
ScrambIes Dried Eggs.
With the guests still watching,
amazed and almost incredulous,
krause added water to the milk in
the right proportion. The powdered
egg he put into a huge frying pan,
added water and butter, and in a very
snort time had a tasty and attractive
dish of scram bled eggs. The fruits
he transformed into a sort of jam or
marmalade and the potatoes he served
in still another way
Then the chemists sat down to lunch
with the inventor. They went enthusi-
astically on record to an Associated
Press correspondent the same day that
each and every dish prepared from
the dried and powdered products tast-
ed absolutely like the original foods,
and that no flavor had been lost.
While food drying processes are by
no means new, nearly all of them are
operated with heat. The greater the
heat necessary in most cases, the
greater is the loss of some valuable
element in the food.
Prepared Food for Soldiers.
Those who have been in position
ly and scientifically regret only that
its completion has come only after
twenty months of war, for they are
convinced that it could have been of
the greatest use in making the lives OF
soldiers in the field more bearabl
The powder of milk or any other food
is easily carried and transformable
back into food or liquid with such
astonishing ease as to make it a thor
oughly practical addition to the sol
dier's kit.
Herr Krause's laboratory machine
in Munich is large enough to dry great
quantities of any food at once 1t can
however, be constructed in almost any
, size, depending upon the amount OF
water that it is desired to remove from
any given food.
Thus the person who wants to use
! it exclusively for potatoes has only tc
indicate how many he wants to dry
per hour. Knowing just what per
centage of water potatoes contain
Krause is able to estimate with ex
actitude how large a machine is neces
sary.

absolutely extract the moisture from
all kinds of food stuffs, without re-

Milk placed in the new machine

what the farmers of Kansas are doing
in the case of wheat We are extern

very much detailed attention. We do
not spend much time in figuring out
suitable rotations to employ, how to
build up the humus of the soil, and
how to maintain soil fertility, all of
which are essential in intensive farm
ing. The extensiveness of our farming
methods is emphasized by our low
average acre yield.
