Food Committee, Issues Call
for Conservation Of Gar.
den Products.
HEIGHT OF THE SEASON
OPPORTUNITY TO SAVE
Fruits and Vegetables Canned Now
Will Release Bread and Meat for
the Use of the Armies
Fighting for Liberty.

Issued by the Minnesota Food Committee with approval OF
the Public Safety Commission.
A call to all the people of Minnesota
to save every possible ounce of garden
products by canning now, in the height
of the garden season, is being sent
out by A. D. Wilson, chairman of the
State Committee of Food Production
and Conservation, as a step toward
the solution of the problem of feeding
the world through the present war
crisis. The call reads:
To the People of Minnesota:
Vegetables and fruits properly
canned and stored now for winter
use will greatly reduce the home
demand for meat and bread. They
will thereby release stores OF
fOOdstuffs for the armies which
are fighting to give the world lib
erty and peace, and for the peO-
pies who have been going hun
cry that such armies might be fed.
For this reason the Minnesota
Committee Of Food Production
and Conservation appeals to the
people of the state to promote
the canning of every possible
ounce of garden products. There
need be no fear of causing an
oversupply of foodstuffs
AS a means of encouraging home
canning the state food committee is
emphasizing the use of the "cold
pack method"
Cold Pack Method Explained.
The cold pack method calls for the
use of a hot-water bath, a water-seal,
or a steam-pressure outfit. The chief
article in the first may be found in
practically every home. 1t is a wash,
boiler, large lard can, or some SINH
lar receptacle. For this reason the
hOt-water bath is recommended. In
structions as to the canning by the
cold pack method with the hot-water
bath equipment follow:
Provide false bottom of wire net
ting or wood Stats with legs to lift it
about one and a half inches above
bottom of vessel. If it is made Of wood
it should be fastened down to prevent
it's floating.
Fill vessel with clean water to cover
tops of jars to a depth of one inch.
Begin heating water in time to let it
boil violently by the time the jars are
packed.
See that the jars are not cracked,
have no broken areas on the collar on
which the rubber rests and are abso-
Iutely clean. Scald them thoroughly.
Use new, thick elastic rubber rings
scalded just before being put in jars.
Start preparation of vegetables or
fruit with clean hands, clean utensils.
and clean, sound, fresh products.
The quality is always better if the
product is canned Immediately. This
is especially true of corn and peas,
which lose flavor very soon.
Prepare products for blanching
Large sized vegetables, as squash and
pumpkin, must be cut into PIECES, and
others prepared as for cooking. Blanch
all greens in steam rather than in

The third of g series of basket ball games between the SkagWay High School girls and the White Pass women's team will be played tonight in the W. P. gymnasium at S:SO o'clock. Mike Ross will um- pire.
 The White Pass team has won two games out of a series of five, and if they win tonight it will entitle them to the series. NO game has been played for two weeks, and during that time the High School girls have done con siderable practising and expect to make a winning showing tonight The previous games were not aiI oue-sided, but in fact were very closely played. 1t is impossible to predict what the score will look like tonight, but it would be no surprise if the end of the game found the w. P. women on the los ing end of the score.

BUILDING
 MATERIALS
 ARE NEEDED

Washington,-(MaiD - Perman- ent buildings of modern type to supplant the tents and temporary structure HOW occupied by Red Cross base hospitals in France are urgently needed before winter sets in, according to cables receiv- ed from Major Grayson M.-P. Mur- phy. Red Cross Commissioner to France, who has cabled the Red Cross War Council to ship quanti- ties of building materials at once.
 Increased suffering, owing es- peclally to the shortage of coal, will result unless structures built to withstand the cold can be erect ed before the rlgOrs of 8 French winter grip the country. The build ing problem is so serious in France, owing to the scarcity of timber trat Major Murphy Cabled for the immediate shipment of two mil lion feet of fir.
 Giant fir trees are now being feiled on the banks of the Colum- bia River, in Oregon and washing toll, and hurriedly loaded aboard a ship waiting to carry the lumber through the Panama Canal to New York where two complete portable saw mills will be taken on, as well as other building material, be- fore the ship sails for France.
 The supplies requested by Major Murphy include four concrete mix CTS, four portable rock crushers and portable engines, and two gasoline tractors to be used in the construction work. These will be taken aboard at New York. There are already a number of expert en- gineers with the Red Cross Commis siou to France who will superintend the erection of the new hospital buildings.
 The American Red Cross now haS more than a dozen base hospitals II France, each equipped with at leas' five hundred beds, and each II charge of twenty two physicians two dentists, sixty five Red Cros: nurses and 150 enlisted men Of the medical corps. Additional doctors and nurses have been sent to number of the hospitals.

ANOTHER BEAR STORY FROM ANCHORAGE SAYS BIG BROWN BEAST CHASED MAN AND WIFE WHO UNLINTBERED AR TILLERY AND SHOT HIM 14 TIMES,

Brown bears are more numerous now on the route of the govern meRt railroad near Montana creek than at any other time in the ex- perience of construction crews. Re- ports from the end of Steel, which is near Montana creek, are to the effect that a herd of seven large brown bears was seen re- gently by workers.
 When the grade was put through, bears were frequently observed, but not iu sucn numbers as at present.
 The animals are so bold that they come to eat from the swill barrels at the mess tents.
 A few nights ago, a mah and his wife, who have taken 8 homestead near Montana creek, heard bear rummaging outside their cabin, and the man got up and from the doorway, shot at the scarcely dis cernible moving object. In the morning blood on the ground evi- denced he had hit the animal. He' armed with 8 rifle, and his wife, carrying a revolver, took up the trail. It led, after an hour or so, into a patch of thick brush where they turned around to retrace their steps home. They had gone but short distance, when, hearing noise they looked backward, to see a brown bear chasing them.
 They unlimbered their artillery tho man his rifle and the women her 1evolYer-and opened fire on the animal. They puhped him al- most full of lead before he fell dead six feet in front of them. Bullet holes in his hide showed he had been hit fourteen times, and cOadiulated blood in one of the wounds proved the animal was the same that the farmer had shot the previous night.
 As usual as the frequent occur renee of bear is the great scarcity

AGITATORS BUSY
 All NENANA END

A second strike at Nenana, occur ring on July 16th, following a mass meeting of July 14th, was settled on July 18th, according to advices re- ceived at headquarters from Thomas Riggs.
 It was decided at the meeting that a permanent labor organization should be formed and that the demands of the men should be raised from $4 per day and board to $4.50 per day and board.
 Advices received from Fairbanks during the time the short strike was on, said:
 Not to exceed sixty men are striking, and some of those have eX- pressed the wish that they had not struck, claiming that it was just a matter of their being coaXed away from their work by agitatOrs. One camp, in fact, came to town on the delegation from one of the steel rail- road, after being granted free trans portation by Commissioner Riggs, and returned to work after they had lis tened to the plans of the agitators.
 The Nenana organization is under stood to have received support from the union at Anchorage.
