HOME CARE OF FOOD.

An important factor in keeping the
family well lies, not only in the prep
aration, but also in the care of the food
in the home. It is not enough that
the food be both palatable and nutri-
tious when served; it must also be
properly cared for, or it may become
a positive menace instead of a benefit
as it should, to the health of the fam
lily.
There are foods that spoil quickly,
unless kept under proper conditions;
while others do not. Various things
affect the wholesomeness of foods; for
example: air, the dishes in which they
are placed, the ice box and other stor-
age places. Among the foods that
spoil easily are milk, cream, uncooked,
fresh meats, certain fruits, such as
berries, peaches and plums and some
Of the table vegetables.
Fresh meats should not be left in
the paper that is about them when
delivered from the butcher shop, as
the wrapping paper will absorb the
juices. Remove the paper and wipe the
meat with clean cloth that has been
wrung out in cold water, and then
place it in a clean dish. Uncooked
fish should not be put in the ice box
without being closely covered. As
odors rise, all strongly favored food
should be placed on the top shelves of
your refrigerator.
Fruit should be kept cool and dry;
a cool, dry basement is better than the
ice box. Ripe fruits spoil rapidly and
should only be bought in small guam
titles. Vegetables that are eaten raw
should always be washed thoroughly
before eating. Lettuce should be care
fully picked over and washed. If
wrapped in cheese cloth and placed in
the ice box, it will keep longer than
if put in water.
Butter of course, should be kept cool
and well wrapped or covered, as it
readily absorbs odors from other foods.
Eggs should be kept dry and cool.
Cooked meats can be kept better, if
well covered before being put in the
refrigerator. Never put hot or warm
meats or food in the ice box, as they
rapidly change the temperature and
cause an extravagant waste of ice. At
this time of the year cereals are likely
to spoil and so should be purchased in
small quantities and kept in covered
glass jars to prevent becoming wormy.
Chicago's back yard and vacant lot
gardens are now beginning to produce
their first supply of early table vege-
tables. For the first time no doubt,
thousands of our citizens are realizing
the extra goodness of lettuce, radishes
and onions fresh from the soil to the
table. Yes, they are good-no doubt
about it. And hasn't it paid for all
the work you didi The writer of these
lines knows, for he has been having
fresh vegetables for the past two
weeks. The backyard or vacant lot
garden is a great institution. More
power to it. Long may it wave. So
say we, all of us.

CoeOanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair
In good condition, be careful
what you wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the
hair brittle, and is very harmful.
Just plain mulsified cocoanut
bill (Which is pure and entirely
ereaseless), is much better than
the most expensive soap or any
ching else you can use for sham
pooling, as this can't possibly in
jure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund-
hnce of rich, creamy lather, and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
pughly. The lather rinses out
easily and removes every particle
of dust, dirt, dandruff and excess
Sive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine
And silky, bright, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut
oil at most any drug store. 1t is
very cheap, and a few ounces is
enough to last everyone in the
family for months. adv.

FIGHTING
CONTROL
OF FOOD

WASHINGTON, ID. c., May 4
With tremendous emergency
war program just ahead, congress
sional leaders settled down to a
fight today to adjourn by June l.
After two days of discussion OF
the embargo section in the espion-
ape bill, Senator Overman in
charge of the measure. declared
if the senate did not get down
to cases" today he would move
for night sessions from now on.
II adjournment is to be accom-
plished by June |, it Is admitted
that there will have to be day and
night sessions most of the time
from now on.
A determined fight is inevitable
upon the food bill, introduced in
the house by Chairman Lever OF
the agricultural committee. giving
President Wilson dictatorial pow
ers in directing the production,
distribution and prices of food
and all other necessities of life
during the war.
Out OF the food bill fight prom
ises to arise two collateral con-
tests around a prohibition bill to
be introduced by Senator Gronna
providing that no foodstuffs be
used in the manufacture of alco-
hol and various measures direct
ed at food speculation.
The drastic shipping bill, COM
ing up from the White House
soon, may develop a snarl, but for
the most part both houses are
ready to give the president all the
power he wants within the limits
of the constitution.
The CONSUMPTION bill was before
the house and senate army con-
ferees today. The principal diff
limits for the draft
and the. question of sending the
Roosevelt division to France-are
expected to be ironed out, within
few days.

will be practically the same as i'm
the former case-that 1t is re-
quired by law to give adequate
service, that 1t is prevented by
law from raising it's rates, and
that the only way it can furnish
the service demanded will be to
get financial relief.
That the public service COM
mission would have full jurisdic-
ton to go into the financial af-
fairs of the company in such q
proceeding was practically con-
coded by City attorney Harmon
today.
How far the commission could
go in granting relief-whether
it could relieve the company OF
the gross earnings tax, street paw
ing and other obligations-would
be question that would then
have to be fought out in a hear

The first clash between the
two elements in the new govern
ment came yesterday. The great
est feeling of indignation was
aroused among the workmen and
soldiers delegates by announce
ment of the provisional govern
ment that 1t intended to stand by
the cars contracts with the al
lies.
At yesterdays meeting of the
council of ministers 1000 soldiers
with loaded rifles were drawn
from the Petrograd garrison to
guard the building where the gov
eminent leaders met. Throngs of
citizens gathered there in a
gigantic demonstration against
Foreign Minister Milukoff.
Speakers from the soldiers and
sailors delegations mounted i'm
promptu rostrums and exhorted
the people to join in their de-
mand that the government take
all people into their confidence.
The workmen's and soldiers
council held an all-night session
last night at which resolutions
were adopted bitterly disapprov-
ing the acts of the provisional
government and charging failure
on their part to keep promises to

NIT them to conferences on all
imDOrtant matters
