Fruit of the Vine.

1t has been dinned into our ears so
often this summer that true patriotism
consists, to large extent. in using the
perishables, that most of US are pre-
pared to can grapes and preserve
grapes and eat fresh grapes as hard
as we can while their long season lasts
Many expert cooks do not realize how
many tempting desserts may be made
from fresh grapes. Pies and jellies and
creams of various sorts may all be
made with fresh grapes, green, purple
or red.
But after we have eaten desserts
mode with fresh grapes and after We
have served fresh grapes for breakfast
to the end of the season, there sull re-
main many tempting conserves and pre-
serves that will last the winter through.
And from these many good dishes may
be prepared when the season of plenti-
full fresh fruit has passed. For one
thing there are canned grapes that may
be used for pies and tarts. To prepare
them pick firm grapes from their
punches. wash them carefully and pack
into jars as closely as possible without
crushing. Steam the jars in the wash
boiler for thirty minutes with the COW
ers in place loosely; then seal them
at once.

"FAIR" PRICES.

The Illinois food administrator in
Chicago has evolved a check ON re-
tail prices that we'll might be emu
lated with profit to the consumers OF
other cities.
He has undertaken to decide what
are flair prices" for various staple
food products. starting with pota-
toes. flour and sugar. His list of
prices will be given wide publicity.
and the consumer will have a check
on his grocer. If the retailer is get
ting an unfair profit, it will be
shown.
The food administration calls at
tention to the fact that it has no
hold on the retailer. 1t claims to
have checked the upward trend of
wholesale prices. and has announced
that the corner has been turned" in
the cost OF living. 1t is devoting its
attention to the middleman, and try
ing to stamp out speculation and
unfair profits wherever it finds them.
That it is meeting opposition is to
be expected, but it is having also
a generous measure of cooperation
from the wholesalers in every line.
1t must depend on publicity to act as
a check on the retailer, and the plan
being tried in Chicago is the most
effective yet evolved.
Fargo should adopt the plan. AS
an example OF how it would work.
the case Of milk prices might be
cited. Yesterday it was announced
that two cents had been added to
the retail price Of milk. At the same
time milk was lowered one cent 3
quart in Minneapolis. II the local
food administrator would publish the
price paid to the producer, and to the
wholesaler, and the fair price, tn
the consumer, the public would at
least know where to place the blame.
Any medium for facilitating the
passing on of price reductions until
they reach the consumer, should not
be overlooked these days. and even
il the flair price, list did not re-
suit in bringing reductions, it would
at least keep the innocent from suf-
fering from the growing public i'm
patience with the high cost of Itv-
ing.

Hawley Boy Tells How 1t
Feels To Be Grounded
By a Shell

Hawley. Mimi, Oct. 24.-The flash
es of guns, the noise, the trembling
of the earth and all commotion be-
comes second nature and the boys
are lonesome without it, according
to Bruce Awrey, former Hawley boy,
who has written back home" of life
in the trenches on the western front.
1T is wonder how the average
Tommy carries his smile adong with
heavy pack and sleepless nights,
writes Awrey. About a month ago
a shell landed so close to my dug
out and the shock was so great that
was turned over in bed. One of
the boys in the next dug-out was
actually thrown out of bed. A half
hour found us all asleep except the
guard.
Those who are kept awake by
disturbances of this kind will be
among the next to receive the shell
shocks because the base shell shock
may be due to either nervousness
or the result Of being too close to a
ton is that of being grounded by a
shell. A fellow ffops just a little
harder than when tackled around
the legs in football. Imagine your
self trying to catch the tail end Of
the Limited with you feet fastened
to the ground. Regardless of a few
little disagreeabie sensations we have
a very interesting time, always some
thing doing. If it is not an air fight
which is superior to any worlds fair
exhibition it itself, it's some other
interesting operation.
Il learn by the papers that Fritz
is making advance on the northern
and eastern fronts. Temporary re-
verses will only spur the allies 20
greater success. We must make every
effort possible. Being an American
by birth, am anticipating big things
from Uncle Sam. You have the
money, men and grit. A little parcel
from home with CHEEKY letter puts
new life into the fighting man. My
has been that too many
write sad letters to the boys which
tend to make their burdens heavier"
