Reporter Says.
By E. A. Peters
Reporter, The Times.

LING tne pioneers ana the
Indians, jitney buses In TIA
coma are gradually disap-
pearing from the streets.
by the first of July, 1917,
there will not be single five
cent bus left.
Already the number has dwin-
died, until only IS cars are now
authorized to carry passengers,
and this number will grow small
er rapidly.
Two weeks ago the bonding
companies raised premium rates
on iitney buses to $3.50.
This means that the average
Jitney would have to pay nearly
81 a day on its state bond. not
considering the city license fee,
the increasing cost of gasoline
and the steady wear and tear of
tires.
The fee is exorbitant, and jit-
ney men are unanimous In be-
lieying that the large traction in
terests are responsible for the
steady increase in the price of
bonds. But they are helpless.
When jitneys first began to
operate under the 1915 auto bus
law, which demands an indemnity
bond to cover possible traffic ac-
cidents, bonding companies eager
ly went after the business, giving
accident security to the new
transportation vehicles at 500 a
year.
In less than year the bond
had increased in price until the
premium was $175. Many jitneys
dropped out. There isn't much
profit in a jitney bus, anyway,
even if you don't pay for bond.
But the demand for $3.50 for
bonds, made this month, spells
the death knell of the Tits"

COLD CANNING

Sour plums, rhubarb. green
gooseberries and cranberries are
the only fruit which may be pre-
served without cooking and with
out sugar.
Their own acids are germ-kill-
ers. But absolute cleanliness
and the best materials are re-
quired for the sugarless cold
canning process. Wash the fruit
and pack neatly in glass jars, put
on the rubbers and set each jar
under an open faucet. Let the
water run with considerable force
for Is minutes to expel bubbles
of air. See that the jars are
overlooking before twisting down
the covers. Seal edges of covers
with melted paraffin, and wrap
jars in paper before storing in a

Apple butter can be cooked in

LETTER FROM
CO. D. Member
Paul HOfacker Writes About Life at
Mercedes-Says Bill of Fare is
Craving Better.

Judge Leighton received an inter-
esting letter from Paul N. Hofacker,
of the Northern Telephone Co., who is
along the Mexican border with Co. D.
He said: "We've got quite camp
down here, located on the edge of
City of Mercedes which is combi-
nation of Texas land boom and border
town population, about seven-sixths
Mexicans. You have no doubt heard
of the Mercedes coast. 1t irrigates a
piece of country down here. The
Minnesota, Nebraska, Indiana and H.
linois troops are camped about three
miles from here, but as far as location
goes, it does not compare with ours.
They have about 1900 troops alto
gether.
"The proposition of getting accli-
mated worked rather hard on some of
the boys after living on canned horse
for five days on the train, together
with about two watermelons per man,
which could be purchased at about ten
cents each. After arriving in camp,
we enjoyed about six days of the
same kind of stuff, mostly canned
meats and crackers, no bread, ice, and
not even prunes. Things are better
now and the boys are coming around
0. K. We get about four hours drill
four days week, ten mile hike on
Friday and nothing to do Saturday
and Sunday except wash and go to
church.
"Of course, the chance for glory is
past now, but it isn't a bad life a.
that-if they don't keep US too long.
I can easily imagine why regular
army man is what he is. Say Hello
to all the fellows. We are making up
the long delayed pay rolls today. The
boys have been broke since the first
Two or three days at Lincoln, so pay
day will be quite welcome"

SCOTS ENJOY
MERRY PICNIC
i ON WEDNESDAY
Burns Club Held Annual Picnic at Oak
Park Wednesday - Interesting
i Program Rendered.

IA merry company of Scots, men,
bers of the Minot Burns club, gathered
at beautiful Oak Park in the western
part of the city Wednesday afternoon
for their annual summer picnic.
An interesting program was render
ed during the afternoon President
VIM. Hetherton Sr read letters from
Norman B. Black and Governor Han
ma. who sent their regrets at their in
ability to share in the festivities. Each
paid a glowing tribute to the memory
of the late Colonel Scarlett, whose alb
sence was felt by one and all.
N. C. Macdonald of Valley City, who
has charge of the rural school exten-
sion work in North Dakota, gave de-
lightful talk on six months sojourn
in Scotland. Rev. Mr.. MacMullen of
Rochester, Minn., gave a splendid talk
on Burns and DR.. A. J. MCDANIEL told
one of his best Scotch stories. Pres
ident Hetherton sang a number of
Scotch songs in his rich baritone voice
and Mrs. VIM. Murray delighted all
with Scotch reading. The program
ended with prayer, led by Mrs. John
Campbell.
Secretary Stewart was exceedingly
busy thruout the afternoon, and es-
pecially so during the lunch hour,
when haggis, scones and other tempt
ing Scotch dishes were served. VIM.
Murray presided at the ice cream can
in a manner that denoted generosity
The picnic was successful in every
way.

portunity in the study of what are
known as plastic operations. He is
connected with a clinic at Berlin. Un-
doubtedly the knowledge that his COM
muncation would be censored had
something to do with coloring his
statements but he wrote that living
expenses were cheaper in Berlin than
in the states. He has first class &C
coInmodations at hotel and his room
costs but $1.OO per day. He mention
ed dinner of roast goose which he
enjoyed the day he wrote, saying the
cost was but zoe. The doctor wrote
that he would continue his studies
couple of months longer, when he
would return to his old home in Nor
way before returning to the United
States. One statement in his letter is
to- the effect that he will never be
caught voting the Democratic ticket
when he gets back home. The pres
ent administration he says is consider
ed in the light of amused contempt in
Germany.
