PREPARE FOR WINTER

PRESERVE what you can. CAN
what YOU can. DRY what you can
Lose nothing of perishable products
that it is possible to save.
Preserve as many products in
your garden as you can CAN, DRY,
EVAPORATE, PICKLE OR BRINE
By the drying method, all of the sur
plus water is driven off by placing
the products on trays in the sun,
over a stove, or before an electric
fan. Dried fruits and vegetables
can be kept in bags and boxes tight
enough to exclude insects. Soak
ing in water will bring the products
back TO large extent to their origi-
nal state, and the may be cooked
like fresh products.
There may be a shortage of cans
and glass Jars, but all kinds of re-
ceptacles can be utilized. Put fruit
juices in ordinary bottles, sealing
with a cork and parafin. Preserv-
ed or jammed fruits or berries can
be put in glasses and sealed with
paraffin, or in wide-necked bottles,
if the cans and jars are not readily
obtainable.
Dry such vegetables as sweet
corn, snap and string beans, shelled
beans, shelled peas and the root
crops. If you have plenty of cans
or jars all Of the above named
vegetables can be canned. Write
for bulletin on canning if same is
desired.
Do not have an empty container
in your home next fall. Do your
part to prevent food waste.

How to Treat Stye Without Going to
a Doctor

Styes are very annoying, and as the
ounce OF prevention in this case can
not be given one must have recourse to
the pound of cure. In the beginning Of
a stye cold applications sometimes
prove helpful. but after pus has formed
hot applications are more desirable
As soon as pus has formed an outlet
should be made. and until this is done
IL will not get well. Use the point OF
a sharp needle that has been dipped in
boiling water.

IMPORTANT DEVEL-
OPMENTS EXPECTED

Important developments may be
expected from Berlin within the
next few days. Advices from the
German capital and neutral coun-
tries agree that important internal
political moves are brewing. Also,
DR.. Won Bethmann-Hollweg, the
Imperial Chancellor, is expected to
make an important speech dealing
with the question of peace in the
Reiohstsg today.
Field Marshal Won Hindenberg
and Gen. Won Loutondorff, his
Chief of Staff, have reached Berlin
for conferences, and Emperor Will
liam has returned hurriedly from
Vienna. The Emperor, it is an
nounced officially, visited the I'm
perial Chancellor Immediately ON his
return, and received from him a re-
port on the situation.

Wall street Is concerned over the
forthcoming government bond issue
Bankers are practically unanimous in
believing it would be unwise to attempt
to float such a huge issue in q lump
sum at the 3k per cent rate proposed.
There is a strong sentiment in favor
of keeping proceeds of the bond issue
in the banks and employing CONNER
cial paper for their use.
The banking fraternity is opposed to
heavy Industrial taxation in raising
other funds needed
Trading was moderately active but
the course of prices was irregular.
Both Union Pacific and Reading sold
