SIMPLIFYING DESSERT.

As a means of conserving the
food supply and keeping our food
bills from soaring sky high many
persons have suggested the three
course dinner 10 persons who usu-
ally made dinner consist of soup,
main course, salad and dessert. As
has been pointed out this usually
means eliminating salad and TO
eliminate so wholesome a course as
salad is not always a good idea.
In winter time soup should not be
left out if there is any one in the
household good enough 10 make
soup. for ii is a means OF utilizing
leftovers and il aids digestion in
preparing the stomach for the
heavier course to come afterwards.
But a lot can be done by way Of
simplifying the dessert course -
both with regard 10 its cost and
the time usually consumed in pre-
pairing it, And of course no econ
omy scheme is worth much now
that does not economic time as
we'll as materials.
To be sure we need a certain
amount of sweets and for this rea-
son dessert serves a good purpose.
But it is possible to have sweets
served very cheaply and very mex
pensively Here are some sug-
gestions for substitutes for made
desserts"

THE telephone AND ITS USES
(By Randolph Samskarl

The telephone is one of the most
important inventions of the world
1t was invented by A. G. Bell in
1876 although Philip Refs of Fred
ricksdorf, Germany, constructed a
telephone in 1861, and was. the first
to apply the name by which it is
known.
Elisha Gray Of Chicago, completed
short distance telephone in 1873,
however, Alexander G. Bell of Bos-
ton, Mass, was the first to invent a
telephone that carried the human
voice with perfection a long dis
tance. He exhibited his instrument
in 1876.
The first line of material length
was completed in 1895 between New
York and Chicago which is about $50
miles. Long distance lines are also
maintained between Berlin and Vein
ma; Paris and London and Paris and
Berlin, (althought I do not think
there is any between them now) also
between many other capitals and
large cities of Europe.
The tree important parts of a
telephone, is the transmitter by
which the Sound waves or modifies
an electric current, the line by which
the sound is transmitted to the dis
tant stations and the receiver thru
which the current produces sound.
The telephone has many uses, it is
used in offices thus enabling quicker
communication than in the olden
days.
Now days you don't. see the ladies
go shopping with big baskets on
their arms for they use the tele-
phone.
In older days the only way people
could communicate at long distance
was by messenger or mail, which
some times took many days, now
they can communicate in a few min
utes across the continent.
Many lives have been saved through
the quick communication over the
telephone. The telephone has many
other uses just as great as the one
l have just mentioned. i

University Farm, St. Paul, Saturday
April IA, and adopted general plans:
To increase crop and livestock
production.
To provide the labor for such an
increase.
10 make available the money need.
ed by farmers in the emergency.
To maintain prices satisfactory to
producers.
To- assist in marketing, and to en-
courage home economics and the or.
ganization of groups of town women
to assist farm women in harvest and
other periods of labor stress.
The first urgent need was recog.
nized as that of larger acreage of
wheat than normal. The winter
crop will be at least 65,0O0,000 bu-
shells short. If possible the spring
wheat states must make up a part
Of this shortage. Minnesota, to dc
it's share, should seed 100000 acres,
or 100000 more than year ago. 1t
can do this by cutting down on the
oats acreage in part. The winter
wheat farmers are reseeding much
winter wheat land to oats and bar
ley. Prices for wheat will be high
SO that Minnesota farmers will make
mistake to turn to oats and barley
Wheat is necessary if the people
of the United States and of other
countries fighting for peace and free
government are not to go hungry
next winter.
To provide for an increased wheat
acreage labor must be provided now
Less than two weeks remain for the
seeding of wheat.

gions is urged by the committee or

avenue, from the court house to Mon
roe street. The committee called
on the county board at their meet
ing last Saturday to ascertain what
could be expected from the county

encouragement but did not get any
definite promise as they cannot
make any plans until the State High
way commission makes the distribu-
tion.
A committee on amusements was
appointed, also a committee to CO.
operate with the village council in
the burning of the dry brush north
of the village to prevent dangerous
fire.
A subscription was started to raise

county representative to St. Paul to
confer with the state highway COM
missioner regarding this county's
state aid for road construction.
The committee appointed to have
a map made showing the auto road
from Duluth to Port Arthur pre-
sented to the club a drawing show
ing the correct location of the road,
taking in the shore line of the lake
and showing the principal streams
and places. The map is 32x9 inches
and it is proposed to have a cut
made in full size, to be printed in a
folder and will be very convenient
guide to tourists.
The organization of a gun club
was discussed, and while there was
no action taken the idea was thought
much Of by the members present.
