BANK COMMISSIONER WARNS
ABOUT BUYING OIL STOCK
June 10, 1917
Editor Idaho Republican,
"Blackfoot, Idaho.

Editor Idaho Republican,
"Blackfoot, Idaho.
Dear Sir:
Several reports have reached this
department that there are a number
Of parties turnout that section of the
country offering for sale stock in
various oil companies.
II am going to ask your good
paper to publish this letter advising
the people Of your vicinity to beware
of any of these salemen as none of
them have ever been authorized by
this department to sell their stocks
and they have in no way complied
with the blue sky law of the state.
"Just at this particular time I
deem it very desirable that any one
having any money to invest should
give first consideration to the gov
eminent Liberty loan bonds and in
vest in them as they are the very
best investment possible, and further
more it is the patriotic duty of every
American citizen to use any surplus
money he has at this time in the
purchase of these bonds.
Il will be pleased to have you pub
lish this letter as / have written 1t
calling attention, If you will, of your
subscribers to it and inform them
that I will be pleased to have any
one write to this department giving
us the names of any Of these sales
men.
Thanking you for giving this pub
licity, I am
very respectfully yours,
&c. R. HIT,
Estate Bank Commissioner.

Home Drying

Dry vegetables and fruits for
winter use If tin cans and glass jars
for canning are scarce or expensive.
This is the advice of specialists Of
the United States department of Ag-
riculture, who recently have studied
the possibilities of conserving food
to meet war needs in spite of any
difficulties that may be experienced
in obtaining canning containers. Dry
ing was well-recognized and sue
cessful way of preserving certain
foods before canning came into gen.
eral use, the specialists point out,
more practicable than formerly,
either in the home or by community
groups.
Methods of Drying
Three methods of drying have
been found by the department speci-
alists to give satisfactory desults.
These are sun drying, drying by arti-
fetal heat. and drying with air blasts
as before an electric fan. Trays for
drying by any one of these methods,
as well as tray frames for use over
stoves or before fans can be made
satisfactorily at home. Frames and
trays for use with artificial heat may
be purchased complete If desired.
Homemade trays may be made of
side and end boards three-fourths of
an inch thick and inches wide and
bottom boards Of lathing spaced one
fourth of an inch. II desired, one
fourth inch galvanized wire mesh
may be tackled to the side and end
boards to form the bottoms of the
trays. Frames for use before fan
may be made of wood Of convenient
size. Frames for use with artificial
heat should be made of noninflam-
mable material to as great an extent
as possible. AS many as six trays
may be placed one above the other
when artificial heat is used. In dry
ing before a fan the number of trays
that may be placed one above the
other will depend, to large extent,
upon the diameter of the fan. In
drying in the sun, trays as described
may be used or the products to be
dried may be spread on sheets of
paper or muslin held in place by
weights.
Preparing Products for Drying
Vegetables and fruits will dry bet
ter IL sliced. They should be cut
into slices one-eighth to one-fourth
of an inch thick; If thicker, they may
not dry thOroly. While, drying, the
products, should be turned or stirred
from time to time. Dried products
should be packed temporarily for
three or four days and poured each
day from one box to another to bring
about thoro mixing and so that the
whole mass will have uniform de-

gree Of moisture If during this "con-
ditioning" any pieces of the products
are found to be too moist, they
should be returned to the trays and
dried further. When in condition
the products may be packed perman-
emily in tight paper bags, insect
proof paper boxes or cartons, or
glass or in tin containers.
Recipes
Spinach and parsley: Spinach that
is in prime condition for greens
should be prepared by careful wash
ing and removing the leaves from
the roots. Spread the leaves on trays
to dry thoroly. They will dry much
more promptly if sliced or chopped.
Beets: Select young, quickly
grown tender beets, which should
be washed, peeled, sliced about an
eighth of an inch thick and dried.
Turnips should be treated in the
same way as beets.
Carrots should be we'll grown, but
varieties having large woody core
should be avoided. Wash, peel, and
slice cross-wise into pieces about an
eighth of an inch thick.
Parsnips should be treated in the
same way as carrots.
Onions: Remove the outside
papery covering; cut off tops and
roots; slice into one-eighth-inch
pieces and dry.
Cabbage: Select well-developed
heads of cabbage and remove all
loose outside leaves. Split the cab
bage, remove the hard, woody core,
and slice the remainder of the head
with kraut cutter or other hand
slicing machine.
Beet tops: Tops of young beets in
suitable condition for greens should
be selected and washed carefully
Both the leaf stalk and blade should
be cut into section about one-fourth
inch long and spread on screens and
dried.
Swiss chard and celery should be
prepared in the same way as beet
tops.
Rhubarb: Choose young and sue
culent growth. Prepare as for stew
ing by skinning the stalks and cut
ting into pieces about on-efourth
inch to one-half inch in length and
dry on trays.
All these products should be con
ditioned" as described.
Raspberries: Sort out imperfect
berries, spread select berries on trays
and dry. Do not dry SO long that
they become hard enough to rattle.
The drying should be stopped as soon
as the berries fail to stain the hand
when pressed. Pack and "condi-
tion.''

Chicago packing plants.
The government is in full control
of the meat packing industry of the
