AROUND THE STATE

Secondhand machinery is selling
for more than the original cost at auc-
ton sales in various parts OF the state.
This is due to the fact that new ma
chinery has increased in price the
past year, and that it is possible for
farmers, who had light crops this year,
to buy their machinery on time.
Katie Meissner, a 15-year-old Heb
ron girl, has confessed to the setting
Of several fires and committing other
depredations in her home town. The
motive for the commission of these
crimes is unknown. 1t is probable that
the youthful offender will be sent to
the state training school an Mandan.

Der the privations of the Civil war,

LONDON TRYING CUT NEW
COMMUNAL FEEDING SYSTEM

LONDON, April 24.-Communal feed
ing was established on large scale
| In London this month under direction
Of the food controller. The kitchen of
the largests hotel in London will be
utilized for preparing the food, which
will be distributed over wide area by
means of local depots.
The intention at present is not so
much to provide cheap food for poor
persons, as to provide economically
prepared food for all classes, the idea
being thus to conserve available sup
plies. Mrs. Pember Reeves, woman di-
rector of the food controllers office,
defined the new move as follows:
eve have central kitchen where
| food can be cooked in the most eco
nomical way, so that the best possible
use is made of the supplies available.
We shall not bake bread We shall
/ hope by providing nourishing and pal
atable meals to get the people to eat
more of their meat ration and so ligh-
| ten the consumption of bread, which is
the most important thiig just now.
We shall take foods that are compare
lively plentiful, such as the sailed fish
" hich is coming on the markets in
large quantities, and make it into a
great variety of attractive dishes. 1t is
rot a question of money-saving. but
OF proving that the sound scientific
handling of food by skilled staff is
economy in food.
with such a kitchen we ought to
be able to feed 10000 persons with
the same food which would have fed
5000 il prepared in badly managed
/ private kitchens. We shall be ready
to supply meals to dukes and Ouch
esses from the kitchen as well as
working people. 1t will not be res
taurant, but a distributing center from
! which a large number Of local depots
are supplied daily with prepared food
| for sale. There is no question of
philanthropy. It is hoped that the
kitchen will be self-supporting. At the
present time many poor people cannot
afford the meat ration, but we hope
that we shall encourage the eating of
meat as against bread by supplying it
in an economical form.
THE plan will depend for success
largely upon the cooperation of the
local authorities, who are taking a
practical INTEREST in it. Committees
formed under the municipalities will
control the local depots, arranging
methods of distribution"

Mirroring the willow woods
Murmurous and merry,

Passing ford and ferry;
Bearing on my bosom up

Here the blossoms floating far
From their berry bushes
Seem bodied shadows of a star
Bathing in the rushes,
Here the apple and the grape,
There the plum and cherry,
Half shadow, half a shape,
Boasts the bouyant berry;
Over mill and under race
Down from mount to meadow,
There the sunshine on my face,
Here the shell and shadow;
Over root and under tree
Leaving man and maiden,
In myself themselves they see

With a kiss and with tear
