EAT MORE CORN MEAL.

1t is really your own acquired tastes
for certain foods that make the cost
Of living high for you. For example,
corn meal contains as much nourish-
ment as either -four or the breakfast
creals, and costs only about half as
much as -four and, about one-third as
much as rolled oats. 1t can be made
into mush and eaten as cereal. baked
into bread, used for griddle cakes,
cooked with meat as scrapple, and pre-
pared in a dozen other ways, many OF
which are not in the cook books. The
Mexicans, for example. make sort OF
cruel or thin mush of delightful
aroma and flavor by toasting the meal
before they boil 1t.

CAN ALL YOU CAN.
(Farm and Family.)

EARN and Family.)
In planting the garden this spring.
put out few extra rows Of all the
old stand-bys which can be canned
for winter use. A few additional rows
make very little extra work and the
vegetables put away In alright tins
or glasses on the pantry shelves will
save many dollars next winter. These
home-put-up vegetables will do more
than save money, because they are
better in flavor than any which can
be bought on the market.
Canning can be continued from
early summer through until frost RI
pens the big yellow pumpkins in the
corn field. Everything goes into cans
to-day because everything comes out
of cans with the flavor of summer
still intact. Even green's and sauer-
kraut are canned. or course, this is
merely suggestion 10 the housekeep-
er and the farmer, but they should
remember that prices for canned
goods next winter are sure to
be high and probably very high. So
every farmers wife should have for
her slogan, Can all you can"

WAIT A BIT.

Some of our contemporaries have
announced that Russia is down and
out. They have, we hope, counted ten
too rapidly. 1t is often the case that
a considerable period of unrest. mis-
understanding, distress, uncertainty,
follows a revolution. Had Russia
moved right along as IL no revolution
had occurred, the illustration Of a
change of government-from absolu-
tism to democracy-without tremor
would have been unique in world his
tory.
We are disturbed about Russia. At
the present time the situation looks
alarming indeed, but while there is the
slightest ground Of hope let us not be
utterly downcast. The detection of
Russia would, Of course, mean that the
United States would be in for a war
CT long duration. Should Germany get
peace with Russia she would get
pretty nearly everything Russia could
pass over the frontier, in addition to
getting her Eastern front armies re-
leased for the Western front, and We
might have to fight Russia as well as
Germany, but we nourish the hope that
a way will be found by the Russians
out Of the woods in which they now
undoubtedly are wandering.-Frank-
fort State Journal.

Women
Every One in France Nurse
or Mother to Soldiers.

Maude Radford Warren says in the
December Woman's Home Companion:
IN sense, every woman in France
is a nurse and a mother to the SOL
diers. In Paris the Care du Nord is
the railway station to which the
French soldiers come on their fur
loughs, and from which they pass back
TO the front. Early in the war, Mad
anne coarcol, Il brilliant and charming
Pa1isennc who was doing canteen
work in the Care du Nord, realized
that the Care had no place where the
soldiers could really rest; Figure it,
Madam she exclaimed, her great
brown eyes flashing. these poor
boys enter Paris at all hours of the
day and night, some of them having
to wait several hours in the mean
time with no place to go. And so |
talked and begged The railroad au-
thorities gave me IL large basement
room here in the Care, and my friends
did the rest. Sevcnty-five beds.
Madame, and it is rare. indeed. that
one Is vacant. and only too often the
men are sleeping on the table. My
enterprise lives from hand to mouth,
from day TO day.
And who. standing in that dim

lie, those blue figures, with their pale
worn faces, their great packs beside
them, the heroes who are saving

faces, such sudden smiles when they
awake, And Madame Courcol moves
among them dressed in white, hand :

Talk Of the Tour,
Has "Aroying"
Become Lost AT?

In that strange world where car
toonists dwell the corner grocery still
is the pulse of the nation, the thrcsh-
ing. floor upon which ideas are tested.
But apparently no other groceries than
pen and ink one. retain this historic
function. The advent of air tight con-
tainers IN place Of the old cracker bar
rel and the substitution Of radiators
Tor the cheerful stove Of yesterday
seem to have killed the corner store
as public meeting place.
simultaneously the fondness of
Americans for the sport of arguing
seems to have languished. At the first
meeting of Missoulas Public Forum
yesterday afternoon there were many
intelligent discussions, but few argu-
ments. Can It be that we have ali
become partisans. caring more for be-
'icfs than the exercise Of argument?
when l was a boy argument was
loved for itself alone" said a Missoula
man yesterday. I'VE lived In the
country. away from daily newspapers
and public meetings, and discussion of
everything beneath the sun was the
only intellectual diversion Of our eld-
ers. On countless evenings have
seen our nearest neighbor come to the
house. eager for argument OF any sort.
Wen. john he would say to my
father. let's argy!'

ply.
