AGENTS
INSTRUCTED IN
DRYING PROCESS

Twelve agents of the North Da-
kota experiment station, engaged in
boys and girls club work, and in
home economics extension work, are
being instructed in a conference I'M
der way at the North Dakota Agri-
cultural college, in new methods
developed by the United States de-
partment of agriculture for the
preservation of foodstuffs. The con-
ference continues till Saturday even
ing.
George e. Farrell, expert in club
work and home economics, is con-
Quoting the three-day conference, at
the conclusion Of which the expert
ment station agents will launch a
new food conservation drive that Is
expected to accomplish big results
in the nation wide campaign that
has been placed under way because
of war conditions affecting the food
situation. ....
Drying Method Expounded.
Mr.. Farrell is devoting his atten-
ton more particularly to the new
methods developed by the depart
ri1ent of agriculture for the preser-
walton of foodstuffs, particularly the
drying process.
Experiments conducted by the de-
partment have revealed the fact
that the drying operation can be
carried out at a tremendous saving
as compared with the canning of
food products; that 1t requires less
room, and is a much more simple
operation.
Intensive Work Certain.
For some time the experiment
station. has been. making an intensive
campaign for the betterment OF the
food supply. The conference now
under way is the signal for new
campaign that will be even more
thoroughgoing.

COUNTY BOARD
DECLARES Task
IS TOO GREAT

The Cass county exemption board
will not be able to complete the work
of REMEMBERING the registration
cards by Saturday night and to sup
ply a list of the serially numbered
copies to the adJutant general OF
North Dakota and the provost mar
shall in Washington, d. C. Up
County Auditor w. r. Tucker stat
ed this morning that work is being
rushed on the cards and that it may
not be until some time or Tuesday
that the work will be completed.
IT'S easy for the officers at Wash
ington to sit on cushions and say
when the job should be completed,
but to get down and do 1t at a fixed
time is another matter" commented
the offic!als
The Cass county member of the
exemption board worked on the. cards
until late Thursday evening. The
orders received from Washington the
first of the week were to the effect
that 1t Is IAN imperative necessity
| that the copies of the cards shall be
in the hands of the adjutant gen.
eral of your state and that copy
of the list for, the provost marshal
general shall be mailed before Sat-
urday, July, T."
A report from Bismarck late this
afternoon indicates that the Cass
county exemption board will not be
the only one to be tardy in sending
In the lists. The dispatch adds that
some needed supplies went out from
the Office OF the adjutant general Of
fee this morning, having been just
received from the war department
and that it will, probably be the mid
die of next week before the great
preparations of the North &Dakota
exemption boards will be able to
report.

Didn't Provide
Enough Money

Bismarck, NJ. o., July 6.-
Seven hundred North Dakota
soldiers who expected TO be
spending money up TO $50, rep
resenting pensions at $40 a
month for the time spent on the
Mexican border were disappoint-

appropriated only $4,000 for the
purpose, and under the act, eff
fective, July I, pensions due to-
tai $4,000. The emergency

up the $1,000 deficit.
