the people have not been in. structed as they should have been, as to how they may obtain these bonds, and this article is written for the purpose of so in structing them.
 You may obtain these bonds in two ways-First from the gov er1ment, through the agency of the banks of the county. or sec ond. from the bank themselves ON CREDIT.
 The government's plan is as follows: Pay 5 pc" cent down. 20 per cent May 28. 35 per cent July 15, and balance of 40 per cent August 28. and the bond is yours.
 The other plan is this, pay the bank 10 per cent. and a note due in the fall for balance. and the only security the banks ask, is that you will give them the bond, if you fail to pay them in fall. This plan is perfectly acceptable to the banks. an1 completely protects them.
 Now, who is left in this county that can not invest Tn one of these bonds? We answer-two classes, the traitors, and the weak hearted, who have neither confidence in themselves nor their government, for their is not man or boy in Lonoke coun ty, who could not work at any kind of work on odd days, and earn by the 28 day of Aug S50.00 in addition to his other work, and 1 am sure no industrious anu self respecting farmer, will fail to take this little interest in the great government, that has fos tered his business, and is paying him such enormous prices for his products. We expect every farmer in Lonoke county there fore to take a bond, and of course every business man in the coun- ty will take one, and 1 know ot no surer way of obtaining a cer tain income for the future, than by this method.
 One more word, reports are coming to us, that indicate that certain men of known financia standing, are belittling them selves, and showing the German

To The Sales Directors and Statesmen of
 Liberty Bonds, Lonoke County

Friends:
 From the meager reports com ing in. we caunot tell what kind of results have been obtained in this county. and being exceed ingly desirious that the very best results come from our county. we are writing you the following:
 First-You must instruct the people that the government has seen fit to take the people into partnership with it, and instead of forcing heavy taxes, as in oth CT governments, it agrees to be come an humble borrower from the people, and agrees to not only pay them back dollar for dollar ten years hence, but pay them a liberal interest on the loan. giv- ing them bond that is just tine same value as money be put up for face value, any time holder is in a tight place, and money obtained on it.
 Secop d-The government knowing the thriftless condition and habits of our people, desire to teach them the habits of econ omy and industry, hence are ask ing at least twenty per cent ot the entire population to sub scribe for these bonds, and thus acquire the habit of saving for another day. It also knows full well, that the people in this ccun- try lack patriotism-that is a closer friendship and business connection with the government which protects them and allows them such nnheard of liberties, and it knows no better way, of establishing this feeling, ano connection, than by the placing of these bords among them showing them thus, that they constitute the sole power o. this plan of government.
 We wish to call the attention O. the people to the fact, that tot
 much attention has been paid, by
 the speakers of this campaign
 to the war, and not enough to tn, liberty bonds themselves, henc,

Apples shrink more In canning than
most fruits, and for this reason should
be blanched for one minute. Plunge
them into cold bath, then pack.
Cover with strip made of IA ounces
of sugar to one gallon Of water and
process quart Jars II minutes. Other
sirups can be used In place of a part
of the sugar usually required.
This method Of canning apples is
not economical, because the apple Is
juicy and needs no water added. A
better method, perhaps, Is to make a
sauce out Of the apples. This may be
done by steaming them until tender
and passing them through the sieve.
Allow one cupful Of sugar to each gal
Ion Of pulp. Reheat until the sugar is
dissolved, pack hot In sterilized jars
and process quart Jars II minutes.--

Resculno Fish.

The rescue Of fish is one Of the &C
dvities Of the bureau of fisheries. 1t
is an important work, but the nature
and importance of 1t are little under
stood by persons outside Of the regions
In which 1t Is carried on. While the
bureau conserves fish, propagates and
distributes fish and labors to educate
mankind on the subject Of fish, 1t also
rescues fish. In times of flood, when
streams and rivers swell beyond their
banks and overflow wide stretches of
land, myriads of valuable food fish are
carried along with the water. The
flood passes, the rivers subside into
their normal courses and the fish are
left inland to perish as the flood-water
evaporates or seeps into the land.
Gangs of men under the guidance of
the fisheries bureau gather the fish
from these overflow lakes, which are
often of great extent, and cast them
loose in the streams or rivers.

Yjddish.

Yiddish is a dialect spoken by the
Jews of central Europe, consisting OF
corrupted Hebrew with large admix-
ture of German. 1t has been carried
by immigrants to Great Britain and
this continent, and is now of practical
" worldwide use. The old Hebrew
Uncial, or Capital, letters are made to
give way to cursive or script letter
in writing; and regular written Ian
guage, and even a literature has come
into being. But for religious usage the
ancient Hebraic form and words, en-
ployed in the written Torah or Law Is
strictly adhered to, and, 1t will be
found as rule that even those who
use Yiddish commonly, have also a
familiarity with the ancient language
Of their race.
