In the first place drying stops decay
In its early stages. iThe amount Of food
which is lost from decay Is very sgrAat.
lnsthe second place drying prevents the
development OF decay in the marketed
odlct: b germs OF decay do not
work when the percentage Of moisture
falls below 5 toT8 per cent.
IN the third place d~ehydrated vege-
tables cos less for cans and jars and
they cost less to ship. One hundred
bushels OF sweet. potatoes will dry

Deans 1873 bushels, according to
Schwartz.
The saving in Shipping charges and
In the cost Of containers where deny
Grating is done will be very large.
Schwartz says: THE enormity OF this
advantage is easily seen when we con-
slider that - to 80 per cen OF the total
weight and 40 to so pei cent OF the
volume OF sweet potatoes is due to

The flavors n odors OF fruits and
vegetables are due to esters which voia-
t1lize and pass OFF with the moisture at
moderate temperatures. D~ehydration is
done at low temperatures. Therefore,
properly dehydrated vegetables and
fruits have the flavors. vitamines, min
erals n all other good qualities Of

Dan looked at her curiously.
Her eyes were blazing, and she
spoke with a conviction, with an
enthusiasm, which puzzled him.
TELL me something about your
father,"he suggested. You said
he was the most wonderful man
in the world"
And I meant it. Gould any
thing be more wonderful than to
force all the nations of the earth
to break up their navies, to dis
mantle their forts, to disband their
armies? Could anything be more
wonderful than to put an end, once
for all, to this waste of life and
treasure, which is eating at the
heart of the world? Gould any
thing be more wonderful than to
turn all these armies Of useless
men back into honest and useful
labor? Then no longer would you
see women gathering the harvest,
or struggling under cruel burdens,
or cleaning the streets, or spread
in manure over the fields! No,
nor walking the pavements Of the
cities! Would you not say that
the man who brought all this about
was a wonderful MANI"
Wonderful echoed Dan.
8 Why, wonderful would be no
for it! But it is something
that no man can ever do.
1T will be done, believe me,
she said, solemnly, and by my
father.
Dan could only stare at her. It
seemed absurd to suppose that she.
be in earnest !; but certainly
her face was earnest to solemnity.

Yes; but he was not in earnest,

he is in deadly earnest. AS to how

WILSON SURE OF
ACTION ON BILLS
Believes Present Session Will
Push All His Measures
Through

Washington, Jan. 80. Admins
tration leaders in Congress to-day got
some encouragement over legislative
prospects from President Wilson's
statement after his regular visit to the
capitol yesterday that he believed
every important measure in which he
Is interested will be acted on at this
session.
The President explained he does not
ihsist on any particular form of rail-
road strike restriction bill, but believes
some legislation to that end is absolute
iy necessary. He also endorsed Sena-
tor Poindexter's proposal to place all
postmasters under civil service.
With different members of the Sem
ATE and House he had discussed means
OF preventing railroad strikes, voca-
tIonai education, revenue, flood con-
troll, the general land leasing bill. the
Porto Rico bill. measure to allow
american exporters TO form common
selhng agencies abroad, increased pay
for federal employees, and the placing
OF postmasters under civil service.
Ihe PRESIDENT told Senator Poindex-
ter, author of an amendment to the
legislative, judicial and executive ap-
preparation bill, adopted by the SEN
ate, which would extend the civil SER
vice requirements to all postmasters.
that he favored the change.
AT present only postmasters in small
towns in the fourth class are selected
by examination, and the remainder are
appointed by the President and con-
nrned Dy the Senate.> Mr.. Wilson said
ne would be gratified to have the
amendment agreed to in conference.
he mas previously urged a proposal
OF this kind, and Postmaster General
Burleson has indorsed it in his annual
report. 1t is expected to meet with
some Democratic opposition.
Representative Sims, of Tennessee,
a member of the House Interstate
commerce committee, considering the
rallroad program, told the President
that he did not believe the House
would approve the part of the admin
lstratlon recommendation prohibiting
strikes or lockouts pending an investi-
cation.
The President said he would not
insist on any particular form of legis-
lation, but that it was absolutely nee
essary to decide on some means of
preventing strikes on the railroads
OF the country. Administration lead
ers now are working on a compromise
measure which the President probably
VIII tndorse. 1t provides for an in
Vestigating board made up of repre-
sentatives of both sides as suggested
by the railroad brotherhoods. but adds
