EXTENT OF RED Cross WORK.

III #HZ Gh ~ ~
Washington, Sept. 9.-Approximate-
Iy $12,O OO, 900 for war relief work in
Europe will have been expended by the
American Red Cross in the first six
months since the United States has
been at war with Germany, according
to a rpeort addressed TO the American
people" today by Henry 2. RaVison,
chairman OF the Red Cross war G:0un-
ell. in which full details are given of
the activities of the organization in
various nations abroad.
More than $10,O0O,000 of this sum,
appropriated up to and includ1ng Al
gust 81 by the war council since its
appointment May 10, is for use in
france. Other countries to receive
relief are Russia. Rumania, Italy, Ser
bia. England and Armenia, the grand
total amounting to $I2, 1893, 681, the
greater part Of which will be used by
November 1, although some of the ap.
preparations owe a year. Most Of
the persons in charge OF the Red Cross
in France are giving tla.F tine
and paying their own expenses. A
special fund Of 100000 has been pri-
contributed to meet the expenses
of members of the commission To
France unable to pay their cWn way.

The recent death, in Asheville, Of
Former Senator John W. Kern, of In
diana, removes a national character
from the life of the Republic, in which
he had been prominent for many years.
He had twice been nominated by the
Democrats for Governor of Indiana
and was the democratic nominee for
the vice presidency in 1908, when Mr..
Taft defeated Colonel Bryan. In the
landslide to democracy in 1910, he was
elected to the United States Senate
from his state and became majority
leader of. that body soon after taking
his seat in March, 1911. Last year he
failed of reelection on account of the
failure of his party to carry Indiana.
He retired from public life on the 4th
day of March, 1917. He was classed
amongst the progressive democrats,
being long allied with the Bryan ele-
ment of the party. President Wilson
had no more ardent adherent than was
Senator Kern.

REASONS FOR DRYING
FRUITS AND VEGETABLES.

Perhaps we are not yet awake to
the great need, the great hunger of
the world. EVen Russia, rich. as she
has been, struggling now with many
difficulties. may need help to keep
some of her people from starving be-
fore another harvest. Perhaps many
OF our progressive women have already
secured for themselves Farmers Bull
letin S41. on Drying Fruits and Veg
etables in the Home" For those who
have not yet been able to do so let me
quote some valuable extracts.
zone of the most prominent fedo
lures of the INSTRUMENTATION program
of European countries has been the
universal drying of fruits and vegeta-
bles. The surplus vegetables in the
city markets were forced by the gov
ernments into large municipal drying
plants. Community driers were es-
tablished in the trucking regions and
even itinerant drying machines were
sent from farmt o farm, drying vegeta-
bIes that would otherwise have gone
to waste. In addition, large quanti-
les OF dried vegetables from Canada
and this country were shipped TO
France during the last two years, and
there is a possibility that dried fruits
and vegetables may continue to be
shipped abroad in considerable guam
titles to supplement the concentrated
diet of the men in the trenches"
The busy farm I'M wants to
know the easiest and surest way OF
managing any new task that must be
added to her already full days. Dry
ing in the sun is possible but it in
wolves so many steps in watching,
bringing in at night. and when storms
threaten, that something better is
much desired.
Almost everything can be dried,
perhaps everything, if we were will
to go to the trouble. Corn. beans,
eppers okra, peas, beets. onions. car
rots. turnips. p~arsnips, cabbage, Swiss
chard, sweet potatoes caullnc Wer,
pumpkins and squashes are mentioned.
Some of these vegetables are valuable
soups although they may also be
used alone. Warning is given to have
root vegetables that are not cooked
before drying, like carrots and pars-
nips washed perfectly clean and peel
ed. Lima beans are dried without
cooking or they may be dropped INTO
boiling water from five to ten minutes
may be dried whole by being
strung on a cord and hung i'll a warm
dry place. If peppers are small the
whole plant may be hung TO dry, IN a
where air blows freely over

herbs for favoring be washed we'll be

BRITTON TO E~AsHINGTON.

For a second time since Mr.. Wilson
became President of the United States,
the editor of the Raleigh News and o.
server has been called into the public
service at Washington. The first to
respond was Editor Josephus Daniels,
who became Secretary of the Navy in
President Wilson's cabinet. Mt. Ed
ward E. Britton, city editor of the Ra.
leigh morning paper at the time, sue
ceeded his chief editor as editor and
has put forth his best efforts to make
a great paper. So well has he sue
sceeded that Mr.: Daniels decided his
services t the Country would be well
conserved in the Navy department at
Washington. as private secretary to
the Secretary himself. Mr.. BrittOn
was called to the capital for a confer
ence with the Secretary of the Navy
his former ckief-and formally tender
ed the position, which he accepted.
Mr.. Britton has been associated with
Mr.. Daniels on the News and Observer
for the past fifteen years and the lat
ter has learped that he may be relied
upon implicitly. Mr.. Daniels is a fine
Judge of men and it il little wonder,
therefore, that he made a tender Of
this responsible position to the man
who has been closer to him than any
body else, in a business way, for more
a decade. Both the SecretarE
and his assistant are to be congratu-
lated: Mr.. Daniels for succeeding In
securing the services of a faithful and
efficient nan to assist him and Mr..
for the high compliment paid
him in being called to a position of so
much significance by M with whom
he had been associated so long in a
way.
There have been few buster men in
North Carolina the past year than .Edt-
tor Britton, of the News and Observer.
When the devastating floods rendered
hundreds of people in the western part

summer Editor Britton vas placed al

distributed more than $45 600, contr1-

distressed of the afflicted districts. He
had already been called to the presi-
lency of the North Carolina Press As

my call to service Mr.. Britton has al
vays responded cheerfully in action

LIQUOR MAKING STOPPED.
News and ObserYer.l

The war has accomplished wonders.
One of these is that the manufacture
OF Whiskey has been FORBIDDEN by ma
tional law 1t would have been stop
ped eventually even had the wal not
come. but the wal has fastened the
halt in the manufacture of the stuff
considerably. At IL o'clock last night
the time for the legal manufacture of
strong drink came to an end.
Just what effect the release of the
grain which ordinarily has been going
into the manufacture of whiskey will
have on the food market is not known.
But 1t will have some effect. Forty
million bushels of grain per year have
been used in making liquor. Hereaf-
ter 1t will be used in making health
for the world instead of tearing it
down. The increase in the supply for
food purposes necessary will lower
prices somewhat.
Of purse it is claimed that the use
of grain in moonshina manufacture
will be as great as that by the distil-
leries, that have, opearted. legally, but
that is much to be doubted. A law is
enforced in proportion to the senti-
ment that backs it up and no student
Of current events a fail to have been
by the growth of the feel
against strong. drink. It has
swept over one State after another and
conquered it, and it has dominated the
national law-makfng body.
There is plenty Of public sentiment
back of the law ~fprbidding the manu-
facture Of whiskey to guarantee a
fair degree of enforcement.

REMEMBER THE SOLDIER BOYS.

Did you catch the Importance of the
suggestion from the boys at Fort Cas-
we'll. They want fruits and vegeta-
bles. The government doesn't fur
nish such. The boys are used to the
Henderson county products-doing
without them is difficult.
Since so many boys went to Fort
Caswe1l from this county why wouldn't
it be proper for some of the parents
and other loved ones to comply WITH
Mr.. Belk's suggestion and remember
the boys with a good quantity of fruits
and vegetables. They are plentiful
and common place now at home but
would be highly appreciated by the
boys from this county. They deserve
to be remembered.

FOOD CONSUMPTION REDUCED.

London, July 30.-As the result of

paganda,t he consumption of bread in
some of the larger British towns has
been reduced by as much as 20 to 80
ner cent. while the consumption or
flour is down by Is per cent.
This has been effected largely
through the voluntary efforts of the
people in the United Kingdom who
have been urged by various means to
reduce their ordinary consumption.
