CANNING LESSON.

Watch the use OF sugar in Jelly
making and save wherever pos
sible, says today's bulletin from
the National Emergency Food
Garden Commission, which is CO.
operating with the Times in a
nationwide campaign to con-
serve the food of the nation and
against waste. The commission
will send free its canning or dry
ing manual to any who enclose a
two-cent stamp to pay postage.
Sugar is costly, continues the
bulletin, and every housewife
should us great care with it. In
order to tell just how much sugar
should be used with each kind of
juice, place a teaspoonful of juice
in glass and add one spoonful
of 95 per cent grain alcohol.
Shake the glass gently in order
to mix, then pour slowly and
watch how the pectin Uhat is the
substance in fruits that makes
them jelD is precipitated. If the
precipitation is in one lump, a
cup of sugar may besssed for each
of juice. Should the precipita-
Gon be in several humps the sug-
ar should be three-fourths the
amount of juice.
Should no precipitation be
shown the juice Is not adapted to
jelly making and should be used
with apple or juices rich in pee
tin.
Tasting the juice is a good idea
because the housewife will find
fruit not as acid as good tart ap-
pies do not make good jelly un-
less they are mixed with fruits
which are acid.

MEN WITHOUT MILITARY
TRAINING BOUGHT As
OFFICERS.

Latest advices from the war
department regarding the new
Officers Training Camp, which
is to be organized on August ri,
give special encouragement to
men 25 years or over who have
had no previous military expe-
Irience.
The 100000 men who are now
completing their training in the
first Officers Training Camp
represent most of those in the
country who have had previous
military experience and are not
now in service. Previous mill
tary experience was one of the
chief qualifications for this first
camp and, consequently, elimin-
ated great number of promising
young men who would have been
glad to the opportunity to train
for an officers berth in the new
national army.
lneSe men are now given their
chance. The war department., in
announcing its plans for the sec
ond camp, which opens August
II, emphasizes the fact that pre-
vious military experience is not
requirement. Even those men
who have had such an experience
six or seven years ago will have
only a very slight preference. For
it is pointed out that military
methods since that time have un-
dergone radical change, that
training gained at that time is no
longer of special value. So the
handicap to the unframed man
has been removed.
1t is pointed out, also, that the
men who are particularly desired
in this new camp are those of the,
age of twenty-five years and
over. Although there has been
considerable emphasis laid on
the needs for men of more ma
ture age, the War department
does not want to infer that the
younger men are not welcome. In
fact, quite the contrary is the
case. For there are many very
commissions for which
the younger and men more active,
physically, can qualify more sue
cessfully, than those of greater
years, and this is being given full
consideration.
The time for application in the
second Officers Training Camp
closes on July 18th.
1T is urgent" says Mr.. j. S.
Dewell, that men, and especially
those between the ages of 25 and
~, apply at once. We must all
do our bit and here is case of
plain honest duty for a MAN"

NosD Posting S,Oine
Cholera Q4ara1ti1,es

Hog cholera quarantine notices are
now being posted on farms where
cholera has broken out. This move
ment to quarantine has been started by
State Veterinarian James !. Gibson In
CO. operation with the county branches
of the Iowa Animal Husbandry Assoc
citation. 1t is the outgrowth of the
CO. operation of the state and federal
government thru the county branches
organized by federal agents as was
done in this and surrounding counties
by DR.. w. w. Knowles.
The quarantine sign that was pre-
pared by the state veterinarian is
green and has printed ON 1t in large
type, Quarantine, hog cholera" Wis
itors to the farm are warned to keep
away from the hog lot Of the farm
quarantined and occupants of the farm
are cautioned to keep away from hog
lots on other farms.
There is no federal or state law to
make the posting of the guarantees
and their observance compulsory, but
DR.. Knowles says that the majority of
farmers are willing that the quaran-
tines be posted when the object of do
ing SO Is explained to them.
Not much cholera has developed in
this county. only two cases being
known by DR.. Knowles. One is in the
state herd at the soldiers home. The
other Is on a farm south of State Gem
ter. DR.. Knowles says some very viru-
lent outbreaks for so early in the sea-
son have appeared in Jasper county,
one outbreak being only short dis
lance south Of the Marshall county line
in Mariposa township.

Hints to Woman
For Summer Frock
Wear and STYLES

II YOU would be up to- the -minute Ia
! the style Of your summer frocks,
| blouses, skirts and suits. here are a
few hints that will help in your selec-
ton or In the fashioning OF the gar
ments.
New wash skirts are now being add
ed to the lines and are largely in plain
white, cotton or linen materials, while
few novelty effects are also being
shown. All-white skirts made on sim
pie lines are the most popular, but
novelty cottons in polka dot patterns,
in stripes and checks or In printed de-
signs. suggestive of sport silk, are IN
fair demand. Combinations OF fancy
and plain materials are also used. the
plain fabric being used for bands. belts
or pockets, or vice versa. Washable
satin skirts. as well as novelty taffetas
in dark colors, are much in vogue for
street wear.
Sports suits are exceedingly popular
this season and come largely in wool
or silk Jersey, white or light colored
serges. wool velours and tussahs.
White skirts with black or colored vel
vet or cloth coats are also considered
very smart for suits. For summer weac
linen and cotton suits in strictly tail
ored and demi-tailored effects are es-
pecially good, cotton gaberdine lending
itself very readily to the present
styles. Bingham, which is so popular
in dresses, is sometimes used in
combination with linen suits in white,
in natural colors. and In soft shades
OF blue, gray and beige.
A few of the suits outline the figure
but for the most part the straight
lines seem to be preferable. while the
slightly raised waistline becomes more
pronounced In the later models. Belts
and sashes are also as popular as ever.
Three-piece suits are somewhat in
demand and come in combinations OF
silk and cloth. some of them being
made in sleeveless design and others
in cape effect.
One Of the newest novelties is a
beach cape as they are frequently
called. to be worn at the seashore or
at summer resorts. The very smart
est are Of satin and are lined with fur
while ali are made OF silk in plain or
novelty taffeta, satin or tussah and
some in silk crepe. Popular colorings
and the dainty evening shades are the
colors used.
The newest and handsomest novel
ties in veilings come in the fashion,
able scroll design. in allover effect
These designs are effectively repro
duced by the use Of glossy silk floss
hand applied, while some of the rich
est effects are obtained by the use OF
chenille or velvet dots. Pin poin.
chenille dots are especially smart.
Large squares or oval designs are uses
in the velvet effects.
