AN ECONOMICAL WAY
 TO CAN TOMATOES

A good economical way to can to- matoes, says the United States Dep- artment of Agriculture. is to pack hrm, whole fruits in a jar and fill in the spaces with a concentrated to- mato sauce. Back quart jar then will provide whole tomatoes for salads or baking and tomato puree for soups or sauces. The departments recipe is as follows:-
 Select firm, uniformly red, ripe to- matoes of medium size. Put into trays and lower into boiling mater for l minute. Remove, plunge into cold water, drain, and cut out the core with slender pointed knife without cutting into the seed cells. Peel promptly and pack into jars. To each pint add one level teaspoonful of a mixture of one-third salt and two thirds sugar. Fill the jars with a thick tomato sauce made by cooking the small or broken tomatoes until tender. Remove the seeds and skins by straining the pulp-and concen- trate it by boiling. to about the con- sistency of letchup. Adjust the rub Der and cap-place the packed jars on a false bottom in vessel of water which reaches almost to their tops and keep at boiling temperature for 25 minutes. Remove the jars from the water bath and tighten the covers immediately.

JRGES LUMP SUM FOR ARMY
 NAVY IN LIEU OF PENSIONS

The Council of National offense au- thorizes the following:
 I August Belmont, of New York
 chairman of the workmen's compensa- |tion department of the National Civic Federation, which has been actively Cooperating with the Committee on Ilabor of the Council of National De- |fense in the effort to suggest legis- |ation to provide for the dependents |of the soldiers and sailors, said today |that he is in favor of the Government |paying given amount to men of |gcod character, instead of an ordinary |perlodical pension or compensation |payment.
 After a man has gone to war and |rlsked his life, given up his business land the opportunity to profit by his |years of education, he ought to have |every chance when he comes back" |said Mr. Belmont. If he desires to |accepl some sum, say half of the total |amount that would be paid him event |ualiy as pension, to set himself is buslsess, think he ought to have it. Mr. Belmost said that there should be an opportusity for soldiers and sailors or their dependents to capit- allze the payments that are to be
 made to them, as is done under ssme oi the European systems of pensios- lsg He added that of course, mans character should be taken into con
 Slderatjon, and emphasized the fact
 that all passions and compensation
 provisions should be taken entirely .out of politics and not be matter

HOW TO CAN STRING BEANS

String beans for canning should be small, tender, fresh and we'll sorted. When the beans within the pod have grown to any size, canning is more difficult and the product of poorer quality from a commercial standpoint. String the beans and cut them into Pinch lengths; cutting diagonally of "on the boas" gives a pretty product. In glass they may be canned whole, packed log-cabin fashion in square jars.
 Blanch in boiling water for 3 to 8 minutes or until the pod will bend without breaking, and plunge into cold water for an instant Drain well, pack quickly, and cover with brine made by adding 1-2 ounces of salt to gallon of water. Put the rubber in place and adjust the cap loosely. When the beans are young and tender allow packed quart containers to re main in water bath at boiling temper ature ? hours continuously, or, if more mature beans are packed, an hour on each of three successive days. Immediately after sterilizing the fill7 ed jar tighter the cap securely and allow jars to cool away from any draught. Store in a cool, dry, dark place.

Mir. Belmont said that he had long entertained the idea that the present pension system could be capitalized after the manner in which England has capitalized its pension system.
 My idea" he said, lis that pen sioner sould receive, as the result of an issue of securities which would be carried by the community at large, certain given amount, if he had a good character and could establish himself in business as a result of of this assistance. If he should be who'll ly an incompetent, then he would re ceive his fixed pension without any adcance at ali Our present pension system involves an annual appro- priation by Congress. It is not con- tinuing at all. It rests upon the act of Congress each year as the subject comes up."
 John Mitchell, chairman of the New York State Workmen's Compensation Board, said that the suggestion should be carefully weighed, and expressed the opinion that it would prove partic- ularly applicable to the soldiers and sailors suffering from disability.

DISTRICT BOARD
EXCUSES 5 MORE

Five more Umatilla county men
have been exempted by the district
draft board at La Grande, presumably
on occupationaI grounds though the
findings have not yet arrived. The
men excused from service are Fred
Blinn, Daniel Ira Hopkins. John Dale
Whitman. Frank Michaels Jr., and
Grover Bowles. With the exception
of Whitman who is a harness maker
at Freewater all the men are farmers
or stockmen. Blinn had not yet been
certified by the district board but all
the other men had.
The action of the district board in
these cases indicates tendency to eN
cuse heads of families on dependency
claims and others on occupational
grounds where the facts seem to war
rant.
