LEAVE WELL PERSONS ALONE
Physicians of Opinion That It Does
More Harm Than Good to Set Up
Cause for Worry.

The question whether doctors should
serenity of the New York Academy Of
Medicine, says the New York Times.
The debate started over a discussion
as to how to doctor up Americans so
as to make this the most efficient Of
nations. The doctors were no nearer a
solution of the problem when they ad-
journed than when the discussion be-
gan.
After a prolonged discussion of the
proper remedies for the presence Of
inefficient persons in the community,
in which it was prophesied that the
day was coming when it would be
fashionable to be examined physically
and mentally, every now and then,
Doctor Meltzer said: "That will only
make people sicker-to examine them.
Do you know why a dog doesn't die?
I'll tell you-a dog never knows why
he is living and that he is going to
die; after he's dead, he doesn't know
it; therefore a dog never dies. Peo-
pie go on for years living orderly lives
until somebody, maybe an insurance
doctor, tells them they have something
the matter with them, and thence
forth, until they reach their grave,
they are sick. Let the physician treat
the sick and let the well alone. 1t is
time more was done for the sick man.
The doctors job is with the sick man."

LIVED TO HELP FELLOW MEN
Ruskin's Noble Words Show How the
Appeal Of Humanity Stirred Him
to SeIf-Sacriflce.

John Ruskin began his life as an
art critic; as one who could see what
was truest and most full of the beau
ty that helps the soul; he counted it
his mission, his gift, to open the dull
eyes of his cOuntrymen to see the
glory Of the vision that had dazzled
his own. He flung the treasures Of
his mind before men in three great
books - Modern Painters" '"The
Stones of Venice" and "The Seven
Lamps Of Architecture" But mean
time there had been entering into his
mind some knowledge of the deafness
of the human soul, of the misery Of
human lives, Of the degradation and
brutality rampant everywhere in mod
ern society. He could not go on talk
ing beautifully about pictures when
men were starving. Hence he felt the
necessity of leaving his gift before the
altar, or, at any rate, of Harvesting it
to other uses. He says: "For my own
part I feel the force of mechanism
and the fury of avaricious commerce to
be at present so irresistible that I
have seeded from the study not only
of architecture but nearly of all art
and have given myself, as 1 would in
a besieged city, to seek the best modes
of getting bread and butter for it's
multitudes."
Again he says: 81 cannot paint nor
read, nor look at minerals, nor do
anything else that like, and the very
light of the morning sun has become
hateful to me, because of the misery
That know of, and see signs Of where
know it not, which no imagination
can interpret too bitterly. Therefore !
I will endure it no longer quietly, but
henceforward, with any few or many |
who will help, do my poor best to
abate this misery" },

Baked Smoked Ham.

This is a savory method of prepar-
ing ham, which is a favorite baked
dish with people on both sides Of the
Mason and Dixon line. Take one
slice of ham one or two inches thick
and, If salty. soak for one hour In a
cupful Of milk. Cut off the rind and
put the ham in a baking dish. Sprinkle
with one teaspoonful of sugar, dust
Of pepper and a teaspoonful Of flour.
Cover closely and bake in O slow oven
for two hours, then add the cupful
Of milk in which the ham was soaked
Boil up once and serve in the dish it
was baked in.

Deep Fat FRYING.

Many young housekeepers are afraid
to attempt deep fat frying because
they either share the common belief
that fried food is indigestible or they
find it difficult to get'uniformly perfect
results and hesitate to serve poorly
formed croquettes or imperfectly cook
ed doughnuts. AS q matter Of fact,
perfectly fried foods are seldom indt-
gestible, because they have not been
allowed to "soak fat" When the fat
is hot enough to form crust over the
outside of the food Immediately, the
fat particles do not permeate the
starchy interior, and fried food can
easily be digested by any ordinarily
healthy adult.

ADVICE OF EXPERTS
SUGGESTION FOR SELECTION
AND COOKING OF POTATOES.
Points That Housewife VIII Do Well
to Keep In Mind When Purchas-
Ing-EconomicaI Methods Of
Serving the Tubers.

The following suggestions to house
wives by home economics specialists Of
the United States department of agri-
culture are made in regard to the Sc
lection Of potatoes for table use.
In purchasing potatoes for table pur-
poses, the following points should be
kept in mind: First, that smooth po-
! tatOes are more desirable than rough
ones, because they are more easily pre-
pairing. Second, that tubers which
have been exposed to light for any con-
siderable period soon acquire a more
or less acrid taste; for this reason,
newly harvested potatoes, if mature,
are preferable for the winters supply
to those which have been kept for any
considerable period under unsuitable
conditions. Third, that very large po-
tatoes are not especially desirable,
partly on account of the greater length
of time required to cook them uni
formly, and partly because they are Of
ten very variable in texture. Fourth,
good potato should be firm and crisp
when cut, and a thin cross section
when held between the eye and the
light should show q relatively uniform
distribution of starch throughout its
whole area, as opposed to a large,
translucent, watery, central area which
denotes a lack of starch in this por-
ton of the tuber. The even distribu-
ton of starch insures greater uniform
ity in cooking and in texture of the
flesh when cooked.
If lot is not uniform, it is often
worth while to sort them and use the
large ones with roast meats, or at 9th
er times when the oven need not be
especially heated, and save the small
ones for occasions when quick cooking
is more convenient. When the pOta- !
toes are very large or time is press I
ing, it is often desirable to increase i
the surface exposed to the heat by cut |
ting them in pieces before cooking, in |
spite of the fact that this slightly in
creases the amount of nutrients lost
If they are pared and cut into small !
cubes or thin slices, they will cook
very quickly and may then be creamed, |
mashed, or served in other ways.

Delicious Breakfast Dish.

One pint of cold, boiled, chopped
ham, four eggs. Break the eggs into
a bowl, but do not beat them; put a
piece Of butter the size Of an egg into
the frying pan; when melted and hot
pour in the eggs and add the ham with
little pepper; stir constantly till
done, which will be when each particle
Of ham is coated with the egg. By not
beating the eggs bits of the yolk and
white are seen through the mixture
when cooked. Serve with graham
gems.

CENTER REPORTS
ON THINGS DONE
IDAHO MAN GIVES SYNOPSIS OF
FARM CONFERENCE AT
BERKELEY


% D. Center, director of agricultural
extension work in Idaho under super
vision of the University of Idaho, has
been in the city this week reporting
to President Brannon on the agricul-
tural conference he attended last week
at Berkeley, California.
Director Center gives the following
concrete synopsis of the work done at
the conference:
Representatives of agricultural in
situations of seven western states went
on record Friday as heartily in accord
with the conclusion of the ST. Louis
conference called by Secretary Hous-
ton. We resolved to place our entire
resources at the disposal and direction
of the nation government in its eff
fort to mitigate food shortages; that
each state acquaint the secretary with
the extent of it's available resources,
and indicate to him the amount of
additional funds needed to place the
plan of agricultural advisement in
operation
1--WE wired our senators and repre-
sentatives of our hearty accord with
the secretary's plan, and asked sup
port of further federal appropriations
to grapple with the emergency.
. eve also went on record as being
opposed at this time to any attempt
to control production of foodstuffs by
legal or military means, and that the
farmers and skilled farm labor be adj
vised their greatest service to the
country is in production; that con-
gress in CONSUMPTION give due consid-
Grafton to teh needs of farm labor;
that definite recognition be given
farm service, as though done in mill
tary lines; that the extension organi-
cation offers the best means for effec-
tive cooperation since the declara-
ton of war Immediately brought the |
extension forces and land grant col
1eges under direct orders of the secre-
tary of agriculture.
"P1ans agreed upon include produc-
ton, conservation and distribution
along all lines"

New Fiber of Value,

Malva fiber is now being manufac-
tured and sold on the market at Ha-
vana, principally to the makers of
alpargatas, or cloth shoes, worn by
the laboring classes. The fiber is
mixed with jute and used for soles.
The malva fiber is claimed to. have
about the same textile strength as Dec

Leftover Vegetables.

Few vegetables will stand relocating
well, for it ruins their flavor. Instead,
we use left-overs for a. vegetable soup.
Cold carrots, parsnips, asparagus,
squash, corn, spinach, tomato, celery,
onions, peas, lima and string beans,
and even cold mashed potatoes make
excellent soups.
