FREEING THE SEAS

1t will doubtless surprise the Ger
man people TO learn that our govern
ment is going right ahead with its
plans to ship men and munitions to
France in steady stream, in appar-
ent disregard of the U-boats that
were meant to guard against any such
contingency. The Germans were ex-
horted last spring by General Won Hin
denburg TO hold out until the U-boats
do their work" And they have been
holding out bravely. What blow,
then, when they discover that the
U.boats are not doing their work
David Lloyd George the other day
made public the bitter truth. which
sooner Or later viii percolate through
Germany despite censorship. The sub
marine campaign is failure. Losses
have steadily fallen since the begin
ming of unrestricted warfare" at sea.
In April the British lost $4,000 tons.
In July the losses fell TO 100000 tons.
For August they will be very much
less than that. If all the neutral ship,
sunk we're Included, the average for
the past few months would rtill be less
than half the amount the German gov
ernnient counted on sinking.
Indirect evidece will support these
figures, ii they need support. A

tically all war munitions for the allies

steel TO Europe in the last six months
than sMe did i the corresponding

BIDS ARE DISAPPOINTING
Continued From Page One)

The recent Liberty loan and the
new Liberty bond issue pending has
depressed the bond market, and this
is held as a cause Of the low figures
named by the bidders for the irri-
cation district bonds. 1t is believed
that the bonds would have ssold for
50 per cent several months ago. The
present bids on the bonds will make
them approximately per cent bonds.
The board will save between three
and four thousand dollars on the
printing Of the bonds this year. They
will be Autographed instead of en-
graved.
The board is considering the bids
but no definite action had been taken
at late hour this afternoon. No bet
ter offers are expected.

THE STRENGTH OF VOCATION

In various guises the fact that a
mans vocation in life, if recognized
holds him in chain of attraction is
often stated. In newspaper work this
fact has become an axiom. So fire.
quently one hears the admiring ex-
clamation Of the outsider" that
there must be such a fascination
about it." There is, just as there is
about the law for the real lawyer and
the farm for the born farmer. The
reason that this is so evident in jour
nalism is that the life exacts so mucn
from the worker, his accomplish
ments are spread so plainly forth for
public criticism that unless the voca
tion is truly his he. cannot long re.
main in it without being an evident
nisfit. All of which merely goes to
show that the word calling" to mean
occupation, is a well-chosen ore.
Everyday readers of newspapers
have a great example of this truth
behind each dispatch they peruse
over which arpeahs the line by Asso-
ciated Press Melville Z. Stone, for
: twenty-five years general manager CT
the greatest news gathering agency in
tho world, occupies pre-eminent posi-
ton in the world of journalism. Yet
he tried twice to get away from his
calling and twice ne failed. The
son of country clergyman, Stone en-
tered a newspaper office at the age Of
sixteen. Years after, ne decided the
work was Improbable and founded an
iron foundry. A few years more re-
vealed him once more in newspaper
life. as one of the owners of the Chi
cago Daily News. Then health failed
he went abroad, returned to New York
organized bank, was successful
banker, and shortly, behold him chosen
head of the Associated Press. Ap-
parently Mr.. Stone has given up tbs
idea that he can disregard the call OF
his calling, for he has been quarter
of century in his present place Of
power and prestige.
Therein lies one Of the great argu.
ments for vocational searching and
training. The world needs Stones in
all It's lines of endeavOr, and the
world has plenty of them, but theS
are too often in the wrong field. The.
have not been taught the language il
which their calling calls.

DRY YOUR VEGETABLES
TOMATOES, CORN, PEAS AND
PUMPKINS DRY EASILY
Store Vegetables for Winter Use or
Send Them to Those Who Have but
Little Vegetable Food in Winter

Berkeley, Aug. 2s.--Dry tomatoes,
peas, corn, pumpkins, squash or cab
bage and help Friend H. C. Living.
That's what the University Of Cali
fornia advises and backs it up with
telling just how to do it.
It's very simple to dry corn, the
university says. Just put it on tray
in the sun and let it dry. Cut it from
the cob first, of course. The same
except cutting them from the cob
applies to peas.
Tomatoes are a more temperament
tai product and demand hot dry at
mosphere or they will not dry. Cut
the min slices, spread on trays and
set them in the hot sun, turning daily
to prevent mould and sprinkle with
salt before the drying stairs. When
they are dry they are good and dry
for it will require t&enty-four hours
soaking to restore them to thier pal
atable form.
Pumpkins and squash must be cut
into thin slices about a quarter Of an
inch thick with the rind removed and
sweet potatoes also must be sliced.
Then it's merely case Of drying
them in the sun.

COOKS ARE SCARCE
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY
COOKS ARE SCARCE
Women Cooks Are Eentering State
Daily From Oregon Due to the
Shortage and High Wages
(By Associated Press)

tBy Associated fTeSSJ
Sacramento, Aug. %. - Women
cooks for farms are at a premium IN
California, declares John Blair. deputy
state labor commissioner. For the.
first time in the history of the State
labor employment bureau there is
dearth of women cooks.
Blair says appeals for cooks are
coming in daily from all parts Of the
State and even from Oregon. Due to
the shortage women cooks are recelv-
ing higher wages than ever before.
A woman recently applied at the
bureau for a position as cook at $40
rer month and board. A rancher hur-
ried in to get her and raised her to
$50, declaring he would add $40 more
as soon as the cook started the fire.
