WHERE AMERICANS WASTE.

Secretary David F. Houstin. OF the U. }.
Department of Agriculture says that hun
dreds of millions of dollars are lost annually
by waste in American homes. This may
be due to one or more of the following
causes:
Carless preparation of food, as thick
pairing of vegetables.
Careless cooking, under-cooking, or
overlooking so TODD is not palatable and
hence not eaten.
Careless scrapping of utensils, leaving un-
cooked food in the mixing bowl or on the
biscuit board.
Allowing cooked food to stick to the
sides or bottom of the vessel.
Careless planning; Too much variety at
one meal, thus having quantities of food
left; serving larger portions than are eaten
and the impractical etiquette of leaving
food on the plate; lack of ability to use
left-overs in palatable dishes.
Careless training; Children who have
not been taught to like the foods which
are good for them; other members of the
family who do not cooperate with the
housekeeper rnd have unnecessary Prelu
diCes.

A SOLDIER BOLD.

Bugler Campbell, if you please, Go. A.
Third Regiment of Tennessee, U. S. A.,
was in Ducktown, Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday of this week, RECALLING the
boys on the subject of camp life in the
army.
Co. A. consists of Isl men, forty of
whom are from Polk county, and they have
as barraks the Boyd School house and eat
at the Busy Bee restaurant, which has been
turned into mess hall for all the compa-
MES in Knoxville.
He said there wasn't much to do except
drill; and when you got tired of that you
could drill some more.
He said it was no uncommon sight to see
man with his tongue hanging down on
his breast bone as the result of these little
exertions, but it was nothing after you got
used to it.
Asked in regard to the physical examin-
alton, he said in his case abont ITO OF
them we're put into room wearing smile
and pompadour and that man with a
paddle ran them up and down the room for
a couple of hours. He remarked, also,
that the smile soon came off.
He said the examining physician gave
him the ronce over" and said there goes
a good one," and he was a full hedged
soldier.
He wound up by saying that "the water
was 6ne," and advised all the boys to jump
in.

DATE WAS WRONG.

The date as published in the various
papers of Polk county of the time for hold
ing the registration of voters was wrong.
The date should have been Monday, Au-
gust Is instead of August E.
Most of the polling places were reached
in time to stop anyone from registering on
the 9th, but if any did register on that
day, they will have to do so again in order
to comply with the law.
See that your receipt bears the date OF
August Is or later.

ARRESTS IN BOMB PLOTS.
Three Accused in Conspiracy t.
Blow Up Ships in 1915.

NEW YORK, October 11.-Three men
charged with conspiring to blow up
ships in New York harbor in 1915 have
been arrested here by members of the
bomb squad" The prisoners are Eu
gene Riester. a restaurant proprietor
Joseph Zeffer. a printer. and Walter
Uhde. a lithographer Uhde has not been
naturalized. The others are American
citizens.
The conspiracy. according to the po-
lice. was responsible for the destruc-
tion by bombs and fires of $4,000. GOO
worth of ships and cargoes.
THE chief conspirators, said Capt.
Tunney of the bomb squad. were DR.
Karl Schimmel. who escaped to Buenos
Aires and later made his way TO Rot
terdam: Capt Franz Won Rintelen, al
ready convicted of conspiracy: Capt.
Otto Wolpert, superintendent of the At
