HOW TO SELECT FOODS.

The health and appearance of the
family are good test of the whole
someness of their diet, according to
the United States Department of Agri-
culture Farmers Bulletin 8O8, on how
to select foods. If they are strong,
well developed for their ages, free
ambition, one may safely say their
food agrees with them. But if they
are listless and ailing, or not as well
developed either physically or men,
tally as they should be, and if COM
petent physician finds that there is nc
special disease to account for these
bad symptoms, mother may well
ask herself if the food is right, and if
not, how she can make it so. If a
little too much or too little of one
nutrient is provided at a single meal
or on single day, healthy body
does not suffer, because it has ways
of storing such surplus and of using
it's stored material in an emergency
The danger would come if the diet
taken week in and week out always
provided too much or too little of
some one nutrient.
Habit and custom help greatly, be-
cause they usually are based on what
the experience Of generations has
proved is wise and healthful, though
of course, there are bad habits and
outgrown customs in food as in every
thing else. Good food habits, it must
be remembered, include more than
cleanliness and order in everything
that has to do with food and meals and
leisurely ways of eating. Equally i'm
portant are a liking for all kinds, of
wholesome foods, even if they have
not always been used in ones home or
neighborhood, and eating reasonable
amounts, without being either greedy
or overdainty. Every effort should be
made to train children in such good
food habits. If older people have not
learned them, they, too, should try to
do so, for such things are very i'm
portant not only to health but also
to economy.
To refuse to eat some wholesome
dish simply because one is not accus-
toned to it may prevent the use of
some very desirable and economical
food. To feel that there is any virtue

shows poor taste as well as poor
economy.

GEN. WOOD IN BIRMINGHAM
Predicts War Will Be Long Drawn
Out Affair.

Birmingham, June 5.-Birmingham
passed in parade before Major Gen.
Leonard Wood, u. S. A., and other
distinguished visitors today when
more than 10000 men, women and
children marched up and down the
streets giving vent to their patriotic
fervor.
In his speech at the fag-raising
Gen. Wood predicted the United
States would win the war, but said it
would be necessary to send perhaps
two million men to the trenches in
France from the United States. He
expressed the opinion that the South
ern units would be among the first to
go.
The hosting of this flag represents
the Blue and Gray for America, said
Gen. Wood, as he, assisted by a Con-
federate Veteran and a Union Vet
eran, raised the flag to position, while
the band played the Star Spangled
Banner.

together and that we will stand be-
hind 1T. One of the principal things
for us to do in America is to make

To Assist In meeting the critical
emergency outlined by President
Wilson in his appeal to the nation
to produce more food and waste
less Of it, the South Dakota State

a Food Training Camp. Surely If
Military Training Camps are neces-

ROYAL Names.

Nicholas Romanof Is the name by
which the late ear is mentioned In the
Russian papers. But 1t may be doubt
ed whether this Is a correct use OF the
word RomanOf, for monarchs, who
sign by their Christian anne only, are
not supposed to have rname In
the early days, when both surnames
aud customs were In the making, they
did not need them. and Except IN case
OF dethronement. and not always then
they have never needed them since
Contrary to popular belief, P~lantagcnet
was not Il surname. Tudor may have
been me-, and Stuart certainly was
But Guelph was not. M SO good al
authority rs Mr.. FoX-DAvies holds that
the present king of England has nc
at all. Less learned authori
ties have been perplexed to know
whether the descendants Of Queen Vic
toria did not inherit the nan Of
their father. the prince consort.

Rosebuehes.

Quite frequently we find rosebushes
not producing as fine large roses al
they did during other seasons. Some
thing IL lacking, and II fertilizers have
been applied and these do not seem to
bring out the good qualities something
else is needed.
Perhaps the roses need iron. One
thing Is certain-a little iron will not
hurt them. Try burying a few cans
beneath the rosebnshes. Mash them
dat and bury them a few inches be-
meath the surface OF the soil, near
enough to the roots Of the roses that
the roots can secure some Of the iron
and carry 1t to the foliage and the
flowers.
From three to a half dozen cans to
a bush Is enough. The tin soon rusts
of, and the thin sheet Of iron will be
rapidly gathered up by the action OF
the elements, and 1t Is surprising how
soon q can will wholly disappear
