FOOD PROGRAM FOR
 THE WAR OUTLINED

FLAGSTAFF, Oct. 23.-The new conservation program of the United States food administration will go nto 75.000 homes in Arizona to hang lpon the kitchen walls until the end 9f the war. That the war is long vay from being finished is the view lcld bv food administration officials. Hence the elaborate program which ias been outlined to maintain the sreatest conservation possible in very home in America until the Hun lays. down his arms in uncondi- ional surrender.
 The first week in December will re set aside as Home Conservation eek in Arizona and during this reek new food administration iome card, carrying the l9lS-l9 pro ram will be distributed to the rouseholds of this state by personal isitation of every home.
 The week will be ushered in by conservation Sunday. which will he bserved in churches of all de- ominations by the reading of a spec ,l message from Herbert Hoover.
 For some time past county food administrators have been preparing Or a gigantic drive for conservation .eek. Community leaders and com- littees are being selected and all reiiminary arrangements have been lade so there can be no hitch in the istribution plan. Spanish and Mexi- an families will not be overlooked $ several thousand cards will be rinted in Spanish.
 When the inter-Allied food council yas held last summer the needs of le Allies were computed and the re- 1urces from which they could be ret were reckOned. Corrected as the turns from the harvest were ascer- lined ard the shipping possibilities ere developed, the schedules show lat America must this coming year md for our armed forces and the lilies half as much again of food lpplies as last year. In place of even and three-quarters million lns the shipments this year will be ,venteen and one-half million tons. Ve are pledged to send fifty per cent ore food and from substantially the me stocks as last year. There must increased conservation to ac- omplish the result The inter-allied ouncil was told to pay no attention } the American food situation. We ave it or we will find it
 And in the light of Americas ,hievement, sending l40,000,00O ushels of wheat where no surplus as to be reckoned in advane, the lilies gave full faith to Americas romise
 As first step in the new program
 was resolved by the conference of .deral food administrators who met I Washington when Mir. Hoover re- urned from Europe in September place in every home the card tell g the essence of the new program.
 The new program is less specific ut no less definite than that of the st twelve months Then the food administration was meeting one mergency after another as 1t rose. his year it will be a long, steady ull directed to the whole food situa- on and not so much to particular ommodities. After a years eXperi- nee the food administration is on a ew footing here and abroad. The avs have been learned, the methods
 been developed. The war con ,iencc is active everywhere.
 The spirit which will carry this fort through to another triumph IS lone the same, yet intensified by the ear of anxiety and frightened hopes.

Leftover Cereals.

Remnants Of cereal breakfast foods
may often be utilized to make pala-
table dishes, to thicken soups or other
foods, and in similar ways. Small
quantities of cooked cereal left over
from a meal can be nodded in cups
and reheated for later use by setting
the cups in boiling water. Another
way to economize cereal mushes is to
add hot water to any mush left over
so as to make It very thin. It can
then easily be added to a new supply.
The practice Of frying the left-overs of
boiled hominy or of cornmeal mush
Is as old as the settlement Of this
country, and the nursery song about
the bag pudding the queen did make"
from King Arthur's barley meal shows
us that for centuries other cereal pud-
dings have been treated In the same
way. In oatmeal oysters, leftover
cereal Is dipped in eggs and crumbs
and fried. Leftover rice and other
cereals are commonly used in cro-
quotes and buildings.

Young Russian In United States
Army Meets wife. Who, Believing
Him Executed In Russia,
Had Wed Again.

San FranciscO.-The same destiny
that tore William Shavchenko from
his seventeen-year-Old bride, Dora. in
Russia six years ago and led her to
believe that he had been executed for
a political crime against the car, has
restored him to her In free America.
But now she Is the wife Of Michael

Mrs. Bakanoff has left her present
husband and sued for the possession
OF her child. She says she will ask
an annulment Of her marriage to him
In 1914.
After S~havchenkO had been carried
away by the cars troops and presum.

the United States, where she married

left her husband.
She obtained work in a home near

When the nest egg put In the bank
some years back by Prudence, twin
sister to Thrift. has grown to fair pro-
portions, it's mighty pleasant to con-
template building a home Of ones own.
So with pencil and paper Mr.. Home
builder sits down to figure out what
he can get for his money. At length,
after much effort and with q great deal
Of personal satisfaction. he views his
estimated cost for the nest that is to
shelter Mrs. H~omebuilder and all the
little Homebuilders. He has kept the
estimate within the amount he can af-
ford. 30 he tells his contractor to build
a house not to exceed such and such an
amount.
Wen pass over the intervening Pc
Rod and meet Mr.. Homebuilder again,
when his house is completed and he
has been handed the bills. His house
Is all right-perfectly satisfactory, but
here's the rub-it cost very much
more than he had figured on. It's the
old story. Estimating Is quite a mat
ter of guess work to the average per-
son.
A few suggestions on this subject
will be very helpful.
Bear In mind that a small house
costs more prOpOrtlOnately than a large
one. Heating. lighting, and plumbing

cost little more for u large house
than a small one. The number and
proportions Of the rooms have a d.
rect relation to the cost. Unusually
large rooms or many small ones are
to be avoided. Large rooms mean ex.
tra large lengths Of timber small ones
mean extra partitions. 1t is also bet
ter to have a few large. convenient
closets than many small ones.
Estimating the Cost.
The approximate estimate of cost
may be obtained by computing the cost
per square foot or the cost per cubic
foot. The cost of a moderate sized
frame building ranges from So to IS per
square foot or 10 to IS cents per cubic
foot. If the architects sketches show

INSERTING INNER TUBES
Take Care That You Give Bridge Nut
at Base Of Valve Tightening
Twist With PIIerA

Many cases Of tire trouble are due
simply to the fact that the tube has
not been properly inserted. The first
thing to do when putting in a tube
Is to give the bridge nut at the base
of the valve stem above the metal
plate a tightening twist with a pair
Of pliers. When the tube Is inside
the casing. jar the tire a few times
to seat 1t firmly. After the tire Is
mounted and fully inflated. fasten Sc
curely the rim nut, which works
around the valve stem above the rim.
Care In fitting the tube will save
many a pinch and fiat later on.

feet, the number of square feet can
be obtained by multiplying the length
by the width. On a basis Of SO to So
the house would cost anywhere
from $500 to $500. The diff.
ference In price is due to interior
equipment and finish. the number Of
windows, pOrches. and ornamental
work. II we estimate the height
Of the house at 30 feet from the bot
tom Of the cellar to a little over the
top Of the roof-which is done to allow
for the overhang Of porches. caves,
and bay windowsNwe find the con-
tents to be $1,000 cubic feet. At
the minimum price of 10 cents, the
cost would be 1920 and at 10 cents,
$5.616.
The cost of building may be boost
ed by excessive ornamentation and 1t
may be kept down by skimping. Either
policy is bad. The woodwork Of any
home should be kept in harmony with
the character and purpose Of the
house. This refers especially to col
umns, porches, dormer windows, cor
nices and interior trim. With hard.
wood trim In fast favor 1t is the usual
thing to use hardwood throughout the

CAUSE OF BAD COMPRESSION
Proper Amount Of Clearance Neees.
sary to Permit Valves to Seat
In Proper Manner.

An obscure engine difficulty some
times occurs that is manifested by a
reduction of compression when the
cylinders r hot, although they may
be known to be tight when the parts
are cold. This Is caused by the expan-
sion of the valve stems during the
warming up process. Unless a proper
amount Of clearance is allowed be-
tween the ends of the stems and the
tappets this may be enough to prevent
the valves from seating properly.

usually figured at 81 per outlet for
