$3.50 IS AVERAGE
EXEMPTION CHANCE
District Board Has Disal-
lowed Half of Claims.

Out of the $50 claims for exemption
and discharge from military service
that have come before the district
exemption board up to date. more
than half have been disallowed.
This news was brought to Missonla
by Dr. f. w. Spottswood, who has
returned from Helena, following the
declaration of a short recess for the
board of exemptions, of which he is
a member. The board will continue
its aduties on next Tuesday.
'fMost of the claims were based
upon occupational and agricultural
grounds" said DR.. SpottswOod. The
only dependency cases We handle are
those that are appealed to us from
the local boards. OF the $50 claims
that we handled, over half We're re-
jeeted. We have adjourned on account
of having caught up on all claims Ia
come before us"
This board, of which DIR. Spottswood
Isl a member. is the board of the first
district of Montana. 1t includes in its
jurisdiction 26 counties in the south
ern and western part of the state.

COL. WHITE STILL BOOSTING.

Col. A. A. White Of st. Paul, who
two years ago purchased from the
government Wild Horse island and a
large number of villa sites on Flat
head lake, was in Butte yesterday.
The colonel believes there Is no more
beautiful country lying out Of doors
than that found along the shores of
Montana's greatest lake and he has
backed this sentiment by investing a
large sum of money there in real es-
tate. With the opening of the new
branch Of the Northern Pacific rum
ming from Dixon to Poison, it is prob
able that more cities of this state
will become familiar with this most
charming section of Montana. It is
certainly an ideal region for the To-
cation of summer homes and anyone
who visits this region at once will APP
preciate this fact. The colonel al
most single handed is doing great
deal to advertise the Flathead country
In the east and he Is entitled to the
hearty support Of the people of this
commonwealth In these efforts.-Adv.

County Agent Campbell
Hopes to Develop Sys-

DIRECT SALES MADE

Initial plans for this years farmer
to- farmer marketing of the apple
crop of Missoula county will he made
this week by County Agriculturalist
Campbell. Mr.. Campbell returned yes
terday from weeks visit Of inspec-
ton to the Flathead country.
The farmer to- farmer movement
was first operated last year at the
suggestion and under the direction of
Mr.. Campbell AS result of his ef-
forts. the plan, which consists of the
direct sale of the apple crop of this
county to farmers in the eastern part
Of the state and North Dakota by car
load lots, proved entirely satisfactory.
Eight Carloads Last Year.
Eight carloads. six Of which went to
North Dakota farmers, We're shipped
from Missoula county in 1916. This
year Mr. Campbell hopes to dispose of
at least three times as many carloads
as were sold then.
I'VE have now 81 county agents in
Montana. where last year there were
only eight he said. "Thc meetings
we have had together during the year
have made us well acquainted with
one another and SO the arrangements
for the plan should be much more
easily accomplished now. There are
prospects of a good sale to the farm
crs of North Dakota also. as former
~ was n county agent in that state
and am rather well acquainted with
the farmers organizations there.
Freight Dates Not Bar.
The freight rates will not be a bar
to shipment across the east boundary
Of the state, because after shipments
have been made eastward, say as far
as Miles City. it costs but little more
to send them to Minneapolis, if you
wish to do so.'

TO GREET SISSON
IN LOYAL FASHION
University Students Plan
Elaborate Reception.

Presidene Q. II, Sisson of the state
University is expected to arrive in
Missoula on Monday, August 20. ON
the day after his arrival. presumably
the 21st. the alumni and the students
Of the university will give an informal
dinner at the Florence hotel to well
come the new president Of Montana
state university.
The dinner for President Sisson was
suggested by small group of stu,
dents who thought that All active IN
terest in his arrival shotld not be
left to the faculty and to the chamber
of commerce. Emerson stone. a senior
in the school of Journalism, was ap-
pointed to call II meeting Of the stu
dents alumni and faculty to decide
on the manner and means of enter
tanning the president.
Faculty Withdraws.
At the meeting the faculty volun-
tarily withdrew, thinking that the at
fair should be Il student ana an alumni,
one where President Sisson might meet
the students without the formality or
"a faculty Background. Ii was decided
to give an informal dinner and com
mittees were appointed to look after
all arrangements. 1t was also decided
to ask Acting President Scheuch of tho
university, and A. l.. Stone president
of the chamber of commerce, as rep
resentatives of the faculty and the
chamber of commerce.
THE idea is" said Emerson Stone
yesterday. ito get the students, past
and present, of this university to-
gether and give President Sisson n
welcome which he won't forget. We
want him to know that were not only
here but that We're here with a spirit
OF unity which will go far in making
his duties and responsibilities profit
able for future students as well as for
us. We want to help him make this
university greater university and the
first step in that direction is to get
acquainted.
IF President Sisson can walk onto
our campus when the fan term opens
and feel thatho is personally acquaint-
ed with one hundred or more students
and that we are personally interested
in' him, then we have accomplished
something along the line OF co opera
ton between she faculty and the stu
dents. Also the students of old Mon
tana will have kept up their reputation
Tor pep. We expect every university
student in town to be at that dinner
Tuesday night"
The tickets for the dinner are on
sale at the chamber of commerce or
may be obtained from the members of
the committees The price a plate win
be $3.50. All students and alumni are
urged to get tickets and to sell as
many as possible.

day as an opportunity for men to do
their bit. Then Will the country see
genuine sacrifice with real suffering
attached.-Baltimore American.

Sliced Beets in Tray, Ready for Drying
move surface moisture and dry from
three to three and one-half hours at
same temperature as string beans.
Peppers.
(a) Peppers may be dried by split
ting on one side, removing seed, dry
ing in the air, and finishing the dry
ing in the drier at 40 degrees Fahren-
heit. A more satisfactory method is
to place peppers in biscuit pan in oven
and heat until skin blisters, or to
steam peppers until skin softens, peel,
split in half, take out seed, and dry
at 10 degrees to 40 degrees Fahren-
heit. In drying thick-feshed peppers
like the pimento, do not increase heat
too quickly, but dry Slowly and even
ly.
(b) Small varieties of red pepDers
may be spread in the sun until wilted
and the drying finished in the drier,
or they may be dried entirely ia the
sun.
(c) Peppers often are dried whole.
If they are large they can be strung
on stout thread; if small, the whole
plant can be hung up to dry.
Spinach and Parsley.
Spinach that is in prime condition
of green's should be prepared by care
full washing and removing the leaves
from the roots. Spread the leaves on
trays to dry thoroughly. Slicing will
greatly facilitate drying.
Parsley should be treated in the
same way as spinach.
Herbs.
Celery tops, parsley, mint, sage, and
herbs of all kinds need not be
blanched, but should be washed well
and dried in the sun or in the drier
These are good for fiavoring soups,
purees, grayies, omelets, etc.

"HE GOT OFF MIGHTY LIGHT
This Was Opinion of Frightened
CoIored Man Regarding Culprlt
Just Strung Up by Mob.

Representative Thomas Hef1ln Of
Alabama is noted as the best story
teller of negro dialect in the house.
He told the story to friends in the
New Willard hotel.
"When 1 was young practicing
lawyer in Alabama l had lot to do
with colored men, many of whomSwere
my clients. One time cOlOred man
n my district committed crime, and
the community took it upon itself to
punish the offender. There was only
one punishment fitting the crime-that
was hanging. The guilty man was
taken out in the early morning and
hanged to a tree. Their job complet-
ed, the executioners started home.
They had proceeded only a short dis
lance from the place where the body
dangled when they met an old colored
fellow astride mule, with a sack of
oats swung over his shoulders. The
black man saw the crowd approaching
and he turned ashen, for instinctively
he knew what they had been about.
The leader of the gang rode up, and
in a gruff voice declared:
"'You know us and we know you. If
you say anything about this affair, the
same fate awaits you

RUN AUTOS WITH COAL GAS
London Motorists Find It Cheaper
Than Gasoline at Present High
Price of Latter.

Great interest has been aroused by
the reference made in the London
Telegraph recently to the economic ad-
vantages Of the utilization of coal gas
as a substitute for petrol (gasoline),
says that newspaper. 1t has been es-
tablished by actual practice that $50
cubic feet of coal gas-the ordinary
gas that is used for household illumina-
ton purposes-equals one gallon of pc
troll when applied to the work of driv-
ing motor vehicle. If gas costs y
cents 1000 cubic feet 1t is equivalent
to. petrol at IS cents gallon, and at
SO cents 1000 cubic feet is equivalent
to it's competitor at "a cents gallon.
As petrol cannot be bought today
for commercial purposes at under 48
to So cents a gallon, it will be seen
how great is the economy effected. So
far as the alterations rendered neces-
sary to the engine of a motor vehicle
are concerned, the only additional ex-
penditure is about $3.50, and the gas
bag container for the storing of the
vapor costs $75. Thus, for the ex-
penditure of $3.50, an ordinary petrol
using motor vehicle of any description
can be converted into a gas driven one,
and the driving expenses reduced eDor-
mously.

SYMPTOMS.

Some people take more pride in
their symptoms than they do in their
children. If you are fortunate enough
to acquire or inherit a number of
alarming symptoms you may be able
20 spend a happy lifetime being miser-
able. There is something peculiarly
charming and piquant about one who
complains about his ailments. How he
is welcomed into any little social
throngl How a room brightens at his
appearance Nervous disorders are
perhaps the most enyiable endows
ments. Have you some? Persons of
this description are charming CONVEX
sationalists. They are never at loss
for a remark. They can talk of their
complaints at@any length. Sick head
aches, loss of appetite, weak back,
dizzy spells are only a few of their
favorite topics In talking to persons
of this sort it is pardonable to say,
I'D rather you'd die of your symptoms
than talk of them"

must be dried uniformly through and

1t Will be found advisable also to
condition" practically all dried vege-
tables and fruits. This is best done
In small way by placing the mate
rial in boxes and pouring it from one
box into another once day for three
or four days, so as to mix it thor
oughiy and give to the whole mass an
even degree of moisture. If the mate
rial is found to be too moist, it should
be returned to the drying trays for a
short drying.
Directions for Drying.
Many of the products for which di-
rect,ons are given here may be dried
either with or without preliminary
6lanching. In such cases both meth

Sweet Corn.
Only very young and tender corn
should be used for drying. and it
should be prepared at once after gath

| self, when she discovered she was go
week-and took an appraising look at
herself. Then she nodded confidently
there was nothing the matter with her
| looks-and resumed her ulster, her
rubbers, and her umbrella, for it was
the kind of December day which called
for all three. Then, glowingly con-
scious that she was saving a nickel by
so doing, she set off downtown afoot
20 get job. She meant to get it
that very afternoon. And, partly be-
cause she meant to so very definitely,
she did.
On the last Sunday before Rose went
away she had studied the dramatic
section of the morning paper with
a good deal of care, and was rewarded
by finding among the news notes
an item referring to new musical
comedy which was to be produced
at the Globe theater Immediately
after the Christmas holidays. ''The
Girl Upstairs" was the title of 1t. 1t
was spoken of as one of the regular
Globe productions, so 1t was probable
Jimmy Wallace's experience with the
production of an earlier number in the
series would at least give her some
thing to go by.
Granted that she was going to be a
chorus girl for WHILE she could hard
ly find better place than one of che
Globe productions to be chorus girl
in. According to Jimmy. it was de-
cent enough little place, and yet it
possessed the advantage of being
spiritually, as well as actually, west Of
Clark street. Rodney's friends were
less likely to go there, and so have a
chance of recognizing her, than to any
other theater in the city.
The news item in the paper told her
that the production was in rehearsal,
and 1t mentioned the name of the direc-
tor, John Galbraith, referring to him
as one of the three most prominent
musical-comedy directors in the coun-
try.
When she asked at the box office at
the Globe theater where they were re-
hearsing "The Girl Upstairs" today,
the nicely manicured young man in
side answered automatically, North
End hail."
I'm afraid" said Rose, smiling
little, 'Tll have to ask where North
End hall Isl
mot at all" said the young man
idiotically, and he told her the ad-
dress-only block or two from Roses
room.

box will very soon saturate the air
with moisture This will slow down
the rate of drying and lead to the
formation of molds. If a current of
dry air is blown over them continual
ly, the water in them will evaporate
steadily undl they are dry and crisp.
Certain prpG1cts, especially raspber-
ries, should not be dried hard, because
if too much mo. iture is removed from
them they will not resume their orig
inal form when sos ked in water. On
the other hand, the material must be
dried sufficiently or it will not keep,
but Will mold. Too great stress can
not be laid upon this point. This does
not mean that the product must be
baked or scorched, but simply that it

Crows Holding Their Own.

There has been hostility between the
farmers and the crows ever since there
were farmers in New England, but the
number of crows, so far as anyone
knows, has not decreased. They are
efficient, they are able to care for
themselves and are likely to hold their
own, no matter how much the popula-
ton may increase. More than that,
despite the severity of winter, each
crow looks sleek and well-fed, perfect
ly at home and contented with its sur
roundings. The English sparrows and
the starlings may seek shelter during
severe weather, but, no matter how
cold or stormy it may be. one finds
the crow doing business as usual. If
the quail and ruffed grouse were as
hardy and intelligent and possessed
with an equally catholic taste for food.
whole volume of game laws might
be done away with.
