save jars, reduce the bulk by boiling
tomato pulp down.
"These vegetables and fruits which
lend themselves to drying, should be
especially considered This is the time
for the homemaker to determine APP
proximately what disposition she will
make OF the fruits and egetables--what
varieties and in what proportions she
will can and dry them, so that she may
have an adequate and valuable supply
for winter.
ut is not only possible but altogeth-
er probable that canning and drying
foods will become popular home arts this
season. Drying foods for family use
means careful planning and more work
for the housewife. IL must be realized,
however, that under present conditions
the question is not what we want to do,
but rather what we must do and what
we may leave undone.
"Dried food will be especially vaua-
BILE in the event OF shortage of jars or
cans. 1t is less bulky and is more east
ly shipped if occasion arises.
"The food elements, so far as expert
mental knowledge shows, are practically
unchanged in the process of drying. The
moisture content is greatly decreased by
evaporation. Even with this change,
there is, pound for pound, a higher per-
centage of food material in dried than
in fresh or canned vegetables or fruits.
Drying somewhat changes the flavor
of food. While some may not like the
flavor of the dried product, it should be
realized that at this time food values
rather than likes and dislkes should be
by alternating in the menu, fresh
canned and dried food products, it is pos
sible to have varied diet with great
err saving of money and of food materi-
ais. Cherries, apples, peaches, greens,
she'll peas and beans, string beans, and
corn are among the foods that may be
dried"

HOW GERMANY
PLANNED WAR

is REVEALED IN
MEMORANDUM
Bold Policy in Absorption of
Belgium for Attack on
France and England

Copenhagen, via London, May % (Cor
respondence of the Associated Press =
The memorandum of the late Gov. Gen
Kissing of Belgium, in which he ahvo
Gated the annexation of the little king
dom as the sole possible policy for Ger
many, is published in full in Greater Ger
many, review issued by Deputy Beck
meister of the Prussian Diet, national
Liberal and annexationist. The un'
ashamed nakedness with which the mem
oramdum calls for the dethronement oil
the Belgian royal house, the exploitation
of Belgian resources, and preparation fol-
a new war to follow the present struggle
shows that the document was never In
tended for public view.
Won Kissing recognizes that Germany
can have little hope of making friends
of Belgians after this war, warns against
s'illusions of possible reconciliation" and
calmly counts up the value of booty from
Belgium and the advantages of pocketing
the country from military, naval and
economic standpoint. He points out that
the offensive prosecution of the present
war was possible only through the inva-
sion of Belgium and speaks regretfully
of the fact that the German right wing
had to squeeze laboriously past the Dutch
province of Limburg.
The memorandum says that the stra-
tegic aim of the war is to gain room for
the concentration and advance of German
armies in new war against England
and France, and that without the pos
session of Belgium, it is doubtful if the
new war could be prosecuted on an often
eive basis. Discussing the subject of the
policy of the iron hand, Won Kissing la
ments the mistakes of yacillating pol
icy of Cancellation, as attempted in AL
SAGE Lorraine and German Poland, and
says they must never be repeated in Bel
GUM. He warns against the idea that
the establishment of Flemish state would
be adequate to secure German interests,
these absolutely requiring the absorption
of all present Belgium.
According to Won Kissing, the absorb
tion of Belgium must not be discussed
at any peace conference. LET only the
right of conquest speak" are his words.

THE DUTY OF A PATRIOT.
By Francis E. Clark, President, United
Society of Christian Endeayor.

1t seems to me a patriotic duty for
everyone who can TO assist our govern.
ment and the world in these critical days
by subscribing so far as they may be
able, to the national Liberty loan. Many
of us who cannot and ought not to go to
the front, can do something along this
line, even though it seems ever so little
in comparison with the billions that are
required. But ''mony nickle makes a
muckle," and every consideration OF pa
triotism will lead us to do what we can.

AMERICAS HIGH DUTY.
By John Sharp Williams, United States
Senator from Mississippi.

The United States has entered upor
the great world conflict, which is to de
eide whether democracy shall have safe
place in the sun on the earth, or not
There is hardly any duty higher thar
that which ought to actuate each citizen
to help furnish part of the money
which will be necessary for that pur'
pose.
1t is true that man may be able to
lend his money out at 6, or 7, or 8, and
in some places even 10 per cent, but he
might well forego for the space OF two
or three years the higher rate OF interest
while he invested in 3h per cent bonds
of the United States. His principal
would be safe. The bonds are exempt
from taxation, except the inheritance
tax, and exchangeable for later bonds OF
higher rate of interest If the United
States later during this war issues such,
and are specifically freed from any war
tax that may be levied.
Our men cannot get to France or Bel
gium in any considerable numbers for
year. The governments money received
from the subscriptions to bonds may get
there by wire, the credit based upon 1t
may, which is the same thing, and, after
getting there takes the form of clothing
and food, munitions, rifles and cannon,
and may help our allies to win. Next to
the immediate duty of chasing subma-
rines and sinking them wherever they
can be found, thereby reopening the ave-
nues overseas for the worlds commerce,
there is nothing that can do so much
good as lending the government your
money. And even in that respect the
man who subscribes to q bond, putting
what ready money he can into it, has the
of knowing that his money
has helped to build destroyer, or buy
an armed yacht, which in its turn has
destroyed submarine.
The American people are not money
loving people in the sense that miser Is.
Their money getting takes more the form
Of a game, which is enjoyed because OF
It's skill and the clash of wits, and their
love of the possession of money is based
more upon the uses to which the money
IAN be put in elevating themselves and
their children and their neighbors and
the community in which they live than
ipon the money itself, or the reputation
If having it.
We are the weslthiest people in the
world; this wealth ought now to serve
he country. 1t will be shameful thing |
hat those who are not fit for military |
ervice should allow those who are fit to
% to the front and be MANNED and man
led and perhaps killed, while they stay |
t home and refuse to do even so much
S to loosen their purse strings.
Editorial Note--Senator Williams of
was the first member of eth
r house of Congress to subscribe for
liberty loan bonds, investing several
thousand dollars in them.l

BUFFALO BILL IS
NEAR TO DEATH
DISTINGUISHED SCOUT OF FORM
Err DAYS HAS BEEN IN PUBLIC
EYE or LATE.

Buffalo Bill, famous scout, soldier
and the American boys hero, is re
! ported dying.
Throughout his 20 years Buffalo
/ Bill has always been active and won
the most admiration of young Amer
lea by his adyenturesome life.
He was born William Frederick
Cody, but in 1867. killed $3.50 buff
falos in IS months and ever since
America has known him as Buffalo
Bill.
Up to the civil war Cody was a
pony express rider. He enlisted with
the Seventh Kansas as scout and
guide during the war, and became
colonel.
In 1868 Cody became a govern
ment scout and furnished the thrills
of Indian warfare of which most
American boys have read. He boasts
he took part in more Indian bat
ties than any other white man. In
one, he says, he killed Yellow Hand.
the Cheyenne chief, in a hand-to-
hand fight.
Buffalo Bill became rich with his
Wild West show, which he started
in 1876. He toured the world with
his cowboys and ponies, giving
Europe its first glimpse of Ameri-
cas- wild and woody west.
Retiring from the show in 1903,
Buffalo Bill lived on his western
ranch, where he has devoted his
late years to reclamation of arid
lands in Wyoming. He turned the
Big Horn valley from barren, sun.
dried waste into a fruitful wealth
Doducig country.
At one time Cody spent 100000
to make Mrs. Katherine Clemmons
Gould wife of the millionaire, How
ard Gould, a stage star He sued
her for that amount, which he claim
ed he lost in the unsuccessful venture.
The suit was withdrawn, however,
before decision was made.
