WASHINGTON. ID. g.. Aug. 21.
Speaking of food-and who
with Il real appetite and a lean
purse is not?-the department of
agriculture thinks there are lots
of fruits and nuts and greens
neglected by the American people.
The blackberry, of course. is
used both in its fresh state and
as delicious jam and jelly, but the
department thinks thousands of
tons are allowed to go to waste
every year because people do not
go to the trouble of picking them.
Only the other day Uncle Sam an
nounced he was having trouble
getting enough blackberry jam
for his soldiers.
Hickory nuts and black wal
nuts are we'll known to most peo-
pie in cakes and candies. but while
English walnuts. pecans and al
monds are commonly marketed.
thousands OF tons of native nuts
are wasted every year.
Dandcllons Neglected.
The commonest neglect is that
of salad and greens plants
which are found everywhere and
are commonly wasted. A great
many people use the young leaves
of the common dandelion for a
salad and the older ones for
green's" but 1t is still unknown
to city dwellers that dandellon
can be picked and preserved for
the winter.
For this purpose a clean stone
crock is used. The leaves are
washed and put in the crock while
still damp. First a layer or
leaves is put in and then salt
sprinkled on them. Then another
layer of leaves and more salt, I'M
til the crock Is filled. The leaves
are thus preserved for winter use.
When taken out, they may be used
similarly to spinach.
Chard Is Good.
The leaves of the Swiss chard,
which is a variety OF beet, the
leaves OF charlock, the root leaves
of chicory, and the leaves Of
marsh marigold, black mustard.
erach. and purslane, commonly
known in the country as "pusley"
are also to be used as greens.
The young stems of the pokewood
are edible like asparagus, but care
must be taken not to confuse
these with the roots, as the latter
are poisonous.
Agriculture departments ex-
perts say these things do not add
greatly to the total nutrients and
fuel value OF the meal, but they
increase wholesomeness OF diet by
supplying necessary mineral mat
ters.

WASHINGTON. ID. c.. Aug. 81.
In order that he may absolute
ly control the wheat and flour
situation in this country for the
period of the war, Uncle Sam is
going into the grain business on
a big scaie.
A federal grain corporation,
with a capital of probably $780,
100000, is to be organized at
once to handle the purely business
side of administering the nation S
wheat crop. This corporation
will buy and sell wheat, contract
for the milling of flour, and keep
available Doe to the people of
the United States and our allies
supplies of wheat and flour at
fair prices.

Commission to Decide.
The final decision Is to be left
to a special commission of three
members-one appointed by
President Wilson, one by Presi-
dent Gompers of the American
Federation of Labor and the third
member to be appointed by the
shipping board.
Officials of the government and
the union which controls boiler
makers, drillers, ship smiths,
molders and practically every en-
ploye on steel ship bulls, indicated
there Is no doubt that the de-
mands of the men will be granted.
The new scale is an advance of
more than SO cents day in some
cases. The daily wage of these
men will be Sc and upwards. Over
eight hours work will be at time
and a half rate.
Affects Coast Yards.
The union is cleaning up the
situation on the Pacific coast be-
fore turning its full attention to
the Atlantic seaboard. The agree
ment with San Francisco yards
expires Sept. Is. An agreement
is being sought in Portland.
The Seattle yards may furnish
the first example OF government
wage increase, as ship builders
there whose contracts were taken
over by the ship board put the
new wage scale squarely up to the
board.
