BanIshIno the Avalanche.

Along the side of an Alpine railroad
an ingenious device is used to prevent
avalanches from falling upon the track
A wall was built which intercepts the
sliding snow and forces 1t to precipi-
tate itself In leap whereby 1t clears
the roadbed and hurls itself into a ca
nal upon the other side.

The kind or cut of meat used does
not usually make much difference in
the full or ealorif1c value.
There is a popular belief that porter
house steak and other choice cuts of
beef represent the highest forms Of
nourishment to be obtained. This is,
however, a misconception. The fun
value Of brisket or ribs Of beef, as well
as mutton and lamb, exceeds the much
desired tenderloin steak
According to Langworthy, expert in
charge of nutrition investigation of the
United States department of agricul-
ture, for all practical, everyday pur-
poses it may be considered that the
protein obtained from a given weight
Of meat differs very little either with
the kind of meat or the cut"
Potato CuIIs,
Among the many products which are
being successfully dried at present and
which otherwise would go to waste
are potato culls-that is, potatoes which
have been injured In digging and there
fore are below market standards. At
least 10 per cent of the potato crop
falls into this class. This percentage
is now being dried and converted into
potato -four.
A pound Of dried mixed vegetables
made up Of carrots, turnips, onions,
cabbage and potatoes, prepared espe-
ctally for soup, is sufficient for sixty
or more adults. A barrel Of the same
vegetables weighing 100 pounds pro-
vides enough soup stock for nearly
5000 persons. The raw vegetables
which go to make up this mixture be-
fore drying fill thirty barrels and
weigh In the neighborhood Of 1900
pounds.-Popular Science Monthly.

A Statement

In the Warrants Ordered Drawn
in the County Court proceedings, as
printed in this paper last week, was
one to the County Recorder for
"work on Assessors Books" This
was the way in which the warrant was
drawn, which clears the reporter of
any possible error, which might ap-
ply to the reading of such warrant.
But the manner in which this warrant
was drawn was at least rather ambig-
uous, if not indeed misleading, and is
calculated to do the County Assessor
an injustice.
Each year the Recorder makes out
such a book, showing changes in
ownership of real estate, for use in
his Office, and is entirely foreign to
the work of the Assessors office. The
facts are that Assessor Wells is al
ways ready and entirely competent
to attend to all the work in the As
essor's office, which work he per-
forms in a manner entirely satisfac-
tory to the most exacting taxpayer.

DR.. w. G.. Patton, the efficient med
ical assistant at State Hospital No.
4, whose term of office will close at
that institution August 1st, has made
application to enter the medical re-
serve corps of the army. There is a
great demand for physicians to pre-
pare for service at the front, and DR..
Patton will doubtless be called to du-
ty there. In the meantime, soon as
his work in the State Hospital closes,
he will go to New York to take post
graduate course in surgery.
DR.. J. L. Eaton came over from
Bismarck Sunday to attend the month
ly meeting of the Board Of Managers
of State Hospital No. 4, where he
spent several days this week. He ex-
poets to spend a large part of the
present month at that institution, ia
miliarizing himself with the detail
work there, as well as getting better
acquainted with his assistants-to-be,
also with the help generally. Through
a close acquaintance with the work
and affairs of that institution he hopes
to be able to eliminate, in large
measure at least, the difficulties that
might otherwise arise. He will take
active charge of that institution on
August 1st.
