 "The operators who are tied up with low priced contracts are simply going to have to go out of business unless they can get an adjustment of these contracts. They are paying now, many of them, more to produce the coal than they are get ting for it on their contracts.

Drying Corn, Beans and
Peas.

Corn and beans are more diff
cult to can than some vegetables.
and on that account it is we'll to
dry them. This will also help to
save the cans for other uses.
Cook the corn on the cob for
from 3 to 5 minutes. Cut the
corn from the cob, scraping it so
as to save as much of the corn as
possible, and spread the corn in
thin layers upon plates. The
beans should be cleaned and may
be cut as for the table. or left
whole, then spread out on plates,
or better, upon unpainted wire
netting which allows free circu-
lation of air. The drying may
be done by placing the material
in the sun and wind or in a
slightly heated oven with the
door open. It. should be covered
with cheesecloth to protect il
from dust and insects. Peas that
have matured on the vines may
be stored for winter use. Greer
peas may be dried in the manner
described for beans. They viii
have a flavor quite different from
the matured ones.
Dried foods should be stored
in cloth bags in a dry place.

held their meeting last Friday
night in the M. E. church, COM
bining its usual monthly meet
and its annual coming together
to celebrate the cause of Sunday
schools and their good works. A
suitable program was rendered,
consisting of prayers, reading a
portion of Scripture. some read
ings and declarations. Follow
ing which adjournment was made
to the basement where ice cream
and cake were served to the sa-
tiety of the attendants, who num-
bered more than one hundred.

Rev. D F. Helms, Dist. Supt.
of the Lima district, preached in
our IA. E. church last Saturday
night and Sunday morning to
large audiences, who seemed we'll
pleased and silently said well

his auditors. At the conclusion
Of the sermon he administered
the sacrament of the Lords Sup
per, of which a large number
partook.
Evangelist Mcdonald held forth
here yesterday evening to good
sized audience in the Presbyter-
ian church with a prohibition
speech, the subject of which was
who pays the taxi" He prov
ed the question to the satisfac-
ton of his audience that it is not
the saloon that pays the tax, but
the people generally, the tax
payer. In the collection Of taxes
our treasurer gets about two per
cent of the amount collected. In
the case of the saloonist acting
as collector he takes all he col
lects and some more. Would any
man continue in business very
long if it took more to run his
business than he gets out Of it?
I trOw not, if he paid opt AL his
income and some besides. He
would have to stop business gss as
soon as his outside funds were
exhausted. His business capaci-
ty would have to he doubted.
Rev. McDonald's logic proved UP
that in many cases the cost Of
the saloon to the public was FIVE
times the amount UNI Of its income.
If the saloon was q refining ref in
stitutiOn there might be SONS
reason to sustain it though its
cost was greater than it's income.
There would be some cOmpensa.
ton for the expenditure Of tbs
excess above its income. But it,
refining influence has been weigh
ed and found wanting. It is al
the other way, instead Of rein
ing it is brutalizing and degrad
