The University Of Idaho, basketball
team will play the state University
five tonight in the. first Of a two game
series. The Muscovitss have a fast
bunch Of tossers and are favorites,
though Jerry's crew will fight hard all
the way. Experience will have a lot
to do with tonight's game. as the
visitors have four veterans in their
lineup, while the Bruins have only
played together twice and have had
very little team practice.
The University Or Idaho team has

numerous candidates that they have

I in first class condition.
The visitors win probably line up
the same way as they did against
Whitworth college last Saturday night,
| when they made about as good show
ing against the Spokane collegians as
| the Washington State college team
did the night before. Pullman beat
Whitworth, GA to %. EdmyAdson
will most likely send Gray and G.
Hyde to the forward positions, big
| "Tiny" Martinson at center. and Cap
tain A. Hyde and Blackmer at guards.
| Otto Stilltnger, who played on the
| team last year, but has just returned
| from the border where he hzd been
with the Idaho militia, and Keane are
the substitutes.
Gray is one of the best scorers in
| the conference and for the last two
seasons has been the best free thrower
In the northwest. He is a very fast
! fioorman and an expert dribbler. c.
| Hyde is the only new man on the
team.
9"Tiny" Martinson, weight 200 pounds
or more, will jump center. If Bentz
| plays center. the spectacle of these two
football giants playing against each
other in a basketball game will be at
| forded. Martinson is more exper-
fenced player than Bentz, moves over
the floor fast, and has played one
year as q regular ana one year as u
! substitute
| Captain Alden Hyde at the standing
| guard position has played for three
years at both forward and guard, and
is fast player. Blackmer is the run
ming guard. and last year was the
sensation of the Idaho team through
his ability to shoot field goals from
the floor. 1t is certain that Idaho has
a very fast team. as Jim Keane, who
has played regularly for the last
three years, has as yet been unable
to land a regular position. At that,
any one of the seven men with the
team is good enough for the first
team. Tonight's game will be Idaho's
first conference game of the year.
Although the Montana lineup has
not been announced yet, it is believed
that it will be nearly the same as
against Whitman last week, with
| johnson and Sanderson at forwards,
Bentz at center and Newman and
Jones at guards.
The game will start promptly at 8

SUMMER GRAINS FOR FLOUR

The Food Administration has
received the following from J. B.
Bristol, Secretary of the Chamber
of Commerce, Nogales, Arizona:
81 have centered my work, un-
der Mr.. Hoover's banner, in
arousing interest in the substitu-
ton of feterita flour for wheat
flour. Arizona raises and can
raise large quantities Of feterita.
The -four made from this grain
is an excellent food and especial
ly in mullins and pancakes is as
good as that made from wheat
flour. Substitution for wheat is
what is wanted and this is some
thing practical. ! have started
interesting housewives in this
substitution and would like to see

Graham guardian., 1917-10-26

ly sealed. These steps, if prop
erly and quickly taken, have
largely to do with the success of
the method. The final success
rests, of course, with the steri-
lization. Food products should
be sterilized for the period given
in Farmers Bulletin 839. Read
carefully all instructions with
reference to the handling of
pressure Gamers to avoid ex-
hausting of liquids, syrups, etc.
When canning in territory with
an altitude of over 1000 feet in
crease the time given in the tables
from 5 to 10 per cent for each
additional 500 feet in altitude.
Do this without fail or some Of
the products will be lost.
Z. In canning fruit, the syrup
should be prepared in separate
vessel and poured over the fresh
fruit, in the hot jar. Some food
products, with high acid content,
like cherries and plums, shrivel
and shrink too much if heavy
syrup is used.
8. The flavor of sweet corn
and peas canned for home use is
greatly imdroved by the addition
of sugar instead Of salt.
8. In canning tomatoes, be
sure to scald until the skins
crack, dip in cold water, then
cut the cores out, remove skins
and pack at once into hot glass
jars. Use a wooden spoon for
packing purposes and pack care
fully. A well-ripened tomato
may be placed at the top and
pressed down to fill all crevices,
Allow a level teaspoonful of salt
to the quart. Wipe off the joints
before the rubber rings are placed
in position. Then place the rub
ber rings and caps in position
and partially tighten the tops
and sterilize.
10. Flat souri," which de
velops in canned vegetables, es
pecially with greens, asparagus
peas and sweet corn, is causet
by insufficient sterilization; BY
canning old, deteriorated foot
products, as by improper blanch
. ing and cold-dipping.
II. Blanching and cold dip
ping all vegetables before pack
ing, if properly done, will not il
, any way injure the character ant
quality of the product. On th'
other hand. it will remove dir
and bacteria and materially ait
the sterilizing process. These
preliminary steps will also max,

COMMISSION ENDS STRIKE

AS a result of the visit of the
Federal Industrial Commission,
headed by Secretary of Labor
William B. Wilson, to the Globe
Miami district and full inquiry
in the conditions surrounding the
strike at the copper mines, a plan
has been evolved to bring the
strike to an end and the produc-
ton of copper will be resumed at
once by all the mines in the dis
trict.
The commission has given or
ders that the strike be called off
Immediately. All men who wish
to return to work must report at
once to the companies and pref
erence will be given to former
employees.
The commission also placed an
absolute bar against any further
strikes during the period of the
war.
The order of the commission
provides for mediation COM
mittee of employees which shall
have jurisdiction over all griev-
ances and also for a board of
arbitration whose decision will
be final and binding upon the
companies and the employees.
The plan of the commission
settles the strike in the Globe
Miami district and normal con-
ditions in the production of cop
per will be effected at once and
the district return to its old-time
prosperity.
The commission is now investi-
eating conditions in the Clifton
Morenci-Metcalf district, and the
chances are that Secretary Will

ferences in that district and end

WOODEN GUNS FOR SOLDIERS

If someone were to suggest
that our soldiers be sent to Eu.
rope with wooden guns, he would
be dealt with as a madman. But
there is another thing that would
be equivalent to sending them
out with wooden guns, and that
would be to send them to the
front without sufficient or proper
food. For a gun, and ammuni.
ton with which to feed that gun,
are not enough for your soldier.
He must have food, too. And
he must have as perfect food as
his gun, and enough of it, If he
is to be as efficient as his gun is
expected to be.
But that is not the whole Of
the situation. There are some Of
our people who, while seeing the
necessity of feeding our owr
men at the front, don't quite see
why we should take over the
task of feeding our allies. Yet
that is simple enough-just con
slider this illustration and see:
We are metaphorically, a hun
dred people in a house with
hundred doors, being attacked
by a hundred bandits. If twent!
of us, or fifty of us, or eighty O.
US are strong enough to do ou
job of barricading our particula
door, all the bandits can still ge
in the other doors. If the allies
men are not as strong, not as wei
fed as our men, then nothini
that our men can do will saw
the day. So, unless we feed all
we are wasting the food we sem
our men-yes, and wasting ou
men too, their bravery, thei
toll, their sacrifice, their lives.

United States from Great Britain.
(Applause).
Some of my relatives have
been in the Civil war, and so, my
friends, it is inconceivable to me
that any portion of any com
munity could entertain in their
hearts disloyalty to this great
country. But know there are
people, a small part Of the people

FOR HOME CANNING
Instructions Given in Farm
ers' Bulletin 839 Should
Be Studied

!. In beginning home can
ming work, take time to study
the instructions in Farmers
Bulletin 839, Home Canning by
the One-Period Cold Pack Meth
3D." Club members should use
Mr. circulars on home canning
work, or the special instructions
in home canning, sent out by the
state colleges of agriculture.
Follow but one set of instruc-
tions. If you combine two, it
will lead you into difficulties and
cause the loss of food products.
2. The instructions in Farm
er's Bulletin 839 are based on the
use of fresh, firm, sound, ripe
products. When canning vege-
tables, which have stood in the
market place over "a hours. in
crease the time of sterilization,
as given in this bulletin, about 20
per cent.
8. Do not begin canning large
amounts. First, try out a few
packs thoroughly and determine
for yourself whether you under.
stand the instructions and can
follow them.
4. Use good rubbers. Most
of the rubbers which are fur.
nished with glass jars will not
stand the boiling required for the
sterilization of vegetables in hot
water, or steam under pressure,
and might better be discarded
and good rubbers procured.
Description of good rubber
rings: Rubber rings for the
average standard pint and quart
jars, etc., should be 5-l6 of ar
inch wide. They should be cut
twelve to the inch, that is twelve
! rubber rings placed one upon the
other will measure one inch II
thickness. They should stanc
up under sterilization in boiling
water or in steam under pressure
for at least three hours without
injury to the rubber. Good rub
bers will stretch and return
promptly to place without chang
ing the inside diameter. They
should be reasonably firm anc
able to stand abrupt bending
without breakage. This descrip
ton does not apply to rings fol
the special types of jars on the
market.
5. Reports during the pas
five years indicate that 70 pei
cent of the spelling Of food pro
ducts in home canning is due II
use of poor rubbers, old Masor
tops and defective joints, springs
and caps.
6. Success in home canning
