Fond Of the Cheap and Appe-
tizinp Cereal.

To Boil Rice.-Pick over one cupful
of rice. wash i'm two waters. drop in
one quart of boiled sailed water, cook
slowly on back OF stove. Never stir,
and when done each kernel will stand
alone. Pour into cOlander and set on
coolest part of stove. 1t should be
boiled in an open stewpan. One table-
spoonful of lemon juice added to water
in which rice is boiling makes 1t very
white and keeps kernels separate
Rice Omelet.-Beat one cupful boiled
rice and two cupfuls of milk in a
smooth paste. Add two eggs well beat

beat till smooth. add One-half teaspoon
'ul vanilla, n bay leaf boiled in rice
and milk removed rs soon as slight
flavor is given to add 10 daintiness OF
seasoning. Spread all on a flat dish,
and when cold form into cone shape.
Dip In egg, then in crumbs and cook in
boiling fat. This makes IL crOQuettes.

TO PRESERVE MEAT
APPROVED METHODS OF rREPA-
RATION FOR CANNING.
Sterilization Of Jars Intended TO Con-
tain the Product 10 an Important
acknowledgements Must Be
Absolutely Alright.

Prepare the meat. poultry or game
that II is desired to can by cutting
II into convenient size to TT into the
jars to be used. The Jars must be
prepared by being either scalded in a
bath of boiling water, or sterilized by
being placed in pan of cold water
to completely covef them, the whole
being gradually heated to the boiling
point, filling the meat into the Jars
directly each one Is taken from this
boiling bath. Sterillze the covers of
the Jars by dropping them into boil
ing water just before they are to be
used. Sprinkle the meat with salt.
No. water Is required, as the meat
makes a Jelly Itself. Put a lnyer OF
hay In the bottom Of wash-boiler,
and put in the jars. Sometimes they
are packed between the hay to keep
them apart. Fill up the boiler with
cold water nearly to the top Of jars
(huving laid covers loosely on tOp)
and. put on the lid. When water
boils let II boil four hours longer,
when the meat will be thoroughly
cooked. II necessary. add more boil
ing water, to keep the Jars well COW
cred. When done, take out each jar
separately (have rubbers soaking In
warm water), sealing at once to ex-
clude the air. The main point In
keeping is to have jars sealed air
tight. Before taking out the jars
have a thick cloth wrung out of cold
water ready to set them on TO pre-
vent breaking while Tightening on
the covers.
Another method for poultry or
meat is TO cut up, season and stew
the meat or poultry, just as if for
Immediate use. After it is thorough
ly cooked it is placed in glass fruit
jars and packed firmly in. Then the
stock Is boiled down well, and poured
boiling hot-Over the meat in the
jars, and the covers screwed on
tightly.

Celery viii Find She Has
Made No Mistake.

Celery should be used as frequently
as possible, not only because OF It's

Of the few vegetables possessing so

VALUES or CHEESE
WIDE RANGE IN FOOD PROPER
TIES TO BE NOTED.
Presence Of Cream is Main Factor In
S Deciding the Degree Of Nutriment
contained--As Prepared by
Wise Chef.

Cheeses range in food value from a
little over 400 to 1855 calories. This
latter food value is that Of the cream
cheeses, but the ordinary cream cheese
has only 80 calories per pound.
This wide difference Is due to the
fact that II great deal Of water may be
dried out of "A cheese, and also great
deal more cream be present in some
cheese than others. There is practi-
cally no cream in cottage cheese, and
the water content may be extremely
high, as much as II per cent.
For this Inter reason cottage
cheese with butter and cream aud nuts
has only the food value of moderate
ly rich cream cheese, but because a
larger quantity Of II Is eaten as por-
ton there may be some danger of get
ting too much food for the body to care
for, although the digestion itself Is not
so overworked.
Formerly flavor was put into cheese
by different types Of curing. Today
the practice Is to put all sorts of tlavors

When this leads TO overeating 1t is bad

will have served you something the size
of a silver dollar, made like the old
fashioned small tart. In thin little

WOUNDED IN FRANCE
TO BE TREATED HERE
Plans Formulated to Lessen Conges-
ton in Hospitals Abroad.

Washington, June 27.-It is report
ed that French sick and wounded
would be brought to the United
States to lessen the congestion in
French hospitals. Quarantine stations
in all parts of the United States are
being rapidly put into condition to
handle these patients. The big prob
lem to the health service of the coun
t!v. it was said, was to prevent the
introduction of contagious diseases
from abroad.
The war in Europe is called by
government medical experts here the
melting pot of diseases. War, it was
said, brings an extra strain and dang
er, and the perils from disease be-
come more menacing than in peace
time, owing to the fact that war
brings longer hours Of labor, harder
work, less food, less clothing, less
warmth, and more nervous strain.
The public health. service is plan
ming to extend its work in every part
Of the country and expects the CO.
operation of the people. 1t will seek
to prevent the spread OF Pc
culiar urban Diseases. In this
connection, it was remarked to-
day that before the civil war typhoid
fever was q city disease. The civil war
was characterized by epidemics of it.,
and ever since it has been a rural dis
ease.
Deaths from wounds outnumber
deaths from disease in Europe, the
first time in history that such has
been in the case, it was pointed out
also that never has the health of the
British army today. PauperisTa also
modern medical science has accom-
plished, been better than that of the
British ormy today. Pauperism also
has disappeared from England dur
ing the present war, and crowning the
entire situation for the medical sclen-
fists is the enormous amount of re-
search work that is being carried on.

FLAMES DESTROY HOME
Residence of Mrs. .tdickes in York
Destroyed Monday.

The State.
York, June 26.-The home OF Mrs
Helen Adickes, on north Congress
street, one of the most valuable resi-
dences in York, was destroyed by fire
after II o'clock yesterday morning.
The blaze had its inception in the
bath room on the second floor and is
believed to have been due to defective
insulation. All the furniture on the
first floor was saved, but everything
on the second floor was lost. The
house was valued at $4,000 and the
insurance carried was $2,700 on the
building and $1,000 on the furniture
Weak water pressure hampered the
fremen in fighting the flames.

Farmers Need Help Of Boys From
City.

Official Bu.. ..letin.
Farmers are getting over their Old
ureiudices and now admit that they
prefer city boys to the kind OF help
on which they have been obliged 10
de2end during the harvest season IN
previous years. This was the state
ment made by William E. Hall, ma
tional director of the United States
Boys Working reserve, who declared
that the demand for the boys on the
farms was in many places greater
than can be filled. In many sections
of the country farmers had to pick
I'D whatever unskilled labor they
could find lying idle around towns.
This year the farmer is beginning to
realize fully that good, clean, healthy
ronng men who are willing to work
and have a sense OF responsibility
are far better then cheap, uncertain
and drres ponsible labor on which he
formerly depended.
According to reports received here
the farmers in New York state alone
desire the help OF $4,000 boys. The
recent census of farm help in New
York state shows that there are 49,
900 less hired men on the farms THIS
year than last year. In addition,
44,17O sons and 43,13O daughters OF
farmers have left the farms for towns
and cities. The reason why the farm
ers in New York and other states are
finding o:ty boys desirable, according
tc Dir. Hall, is because the boys are
making good.

TO DESIGNATE REGIMENTS.
VIII Be known by Number and Ser
vice Branch.

WASHINGTON, June 2S-Designation
of all army regiments hereafter by
number and service branch only, with
ont distinction between units of the
1oenlars. National Guard and nation
al army. has been decided on by the
War Department to simplify official
records of the great war forces now
being developed.
The regular regiments will retain
their present names from the First
infantry, First cavalry, etc., upward.
The National Guard regiments will De
renamed, their numbers beginning
where those Of the regulars end, and
the new units to be organized under
the draft will take their number on
ward from the last of the guard resl-
ments.
For the purpose of the local identl-
fication. but not the official records,
National Guard and national army
regiments vail be permitted to use In
parenthesis after their names the
names of the States from which they
came. In the case of the National
Guard, the former name of the regl-
ment may be used in full i'll paren-
thesis, including both the name OF
the State and the former State num-
ber. Thus national army regiment
could be called the two hundred and
fifty" (Ala.), or the "sixty-hfth held
artillery" (Tenn.), while National
Guard regiment use the designation
"sixty-sixth infontry (First Georgia),
or tenth engineers (Twenty-second
Louisiana"). No parenthesis will be
applied to regulars.

FLOOD SWEEPS TOWN AWAY.
Dam Breaks and Causes Much
Damage in Oregon.

Damage in Oregon.
Baker, Ore, June 28.-Reports from
Haines says the town of Rock Creek
practically was swept away today
when a ffty-foot dam at the flooded
Killamaque lake, fifteen miles west OF
Haines gave way.
Almost every building is said to
have been destroyed. 1t is not known
whether there has been any. loss OF
life. as communication is cut off.
Along the path of the rushing wa
ter, people were fleeing, carrying with
them what few belongings they were
able to gather, according to reports
reaching here.
Several ranches have been flooded.
The loss will run into thousands OF
dollars, it is believed, as the district
affected is considered one of the most
productive grain and hay sections or
Oregon.
Killamaque lake is located on the
summit of the Elkhorn mountain
range. When the dam gave way the
water cut path 200 yards wide down
the mountain side.
