Requested to Buy Only Things
Necessary to Health
and Efficiency.
THRIFT PLEDGE ALSO ASKED
All Citizens Must Be Economically
Adjusted to War Conditions II
Nation Is to Play Its
Part in Conflict.

Washington, ID. C.-To save mate
rials and labor for necessary war pur-
poses, President Wilson appealed to
Americans ito buy only those things
which are essential to the individual
health and efficiency" and to volun-
teer on or before June 2S, National
Thrift day. to invest Systematically in
War Savings and Thrift Stamps, or
other government securities.
"This war is one of nations-not of
armies" said the president. "and all
of our 100.000,0O0 people must be
economically and industrially adjusted
to war conditions If this nation is to
play its full part in the conflict.
Pledge Is Sought.
"The problem before us is not pri-
marily financial problem, but rather
a problem of increased production of
war essentials and the saving of the
materials and the labor necessary for
the support and equipment of our
army and navy. Thoughtless expendi-
ture of money for nonessentials uses
up the labor of men, the products of
the farm, mines, and factories, and
overburdens transportation, all of
which must be used to the utmost and
at their best for war purposes.
"The. great results which we seek
can be obtained only by the participa-
ton of young and old in national
thrift movement. 1 therefore urge
that our people everywhere pledge
themselves, as suggested by the secre-
tary of the treasury, to the practice of
thrift; to serve the government to
their utmost in increasing production
in all fields necessary TO the winning
of the war; to conserve food and fuel
and useful materials of every kind; to
devote their labor only to the most
necessary tasks, and to buy only those
things which are essential to individ-
! ual health and efficiency.
"Buy More U. S. Securities"
1.-The securities issued by the treas
ury department are, so many of them,
within the reach of every one that the
door of opportunity in this matter Is
wide open to all of US.
81 appeal to all who now own either
Liberty bonds or War Savings stamps
thrift and to appeal to all who do not
own government securities to do like
wise and purchase them to the extent
of their means. The man who buys
government securities transfers the
purchasing power of mis- money to the
United States government until after
this war, and to that same degree does
not buy in competition with the gov
| ernment.
81 earnestly appeal to every man,
woman and child to pledge themselves
on or before June % to save constant
ly and to buy as regularly as possible
the securities of the government.
"The 2Sth of June ends this special
period of enlistment in the great vol
unteer army of production and saving
here at home. May there be none un-
enlisted on that day."

secretary mCAOOO GtPchui-
lures for Year at s24,ooo, 100000.
Washington.-Secret McAdoo rec
ommended in a letter to Chairman
Kitchin of the House ways and means
committee that the new revenue bill
be drawn to raise $4,000. 100000 by tax
alton, one-third of the estimated s24,-
900 100000 expenditures in the fiscal
year 1919. He also recommended that
war profits tax be established at a
high rate, to be superimposed upon ex-
listing excess profits taxes; that the
normal income tax on unearned in
comes be raised and that heavy taxa
ton be imposed on luxuries. The sug-
gestions were given in response to
letter from Mr.. Kitchen and constitut-
ed an outline of the treasury's ideas
not only of taxation to meet the ma
tions huge war expenses in the future
but of preparing the way for floating
of additional billions of Liberty bonds.

Breadless Meals Save Wheat.

How are you saving wheat? One
way is to serve breadless meals now
and then. Have you ever tried them?
Breadless meals need planning
ahead. You can't take just any menu
and take the bread out and expect the
family to like 1t. Bread has several
functions in the meal, and fully de-
serves the high opinion which we have
of it. 1t is one of our best foods for
fuel, furnishing carbohydrate in the
form of starch and also bodybuilding
protein and mineral substances. But
if the meal contains enough other food
to furnish the starch and the protein
needed why not save the bread?
Try planning your meals so that
these wheat-saving dishes take the
place of the bread. Potatoes, sweet
potatoes or dasheens-mashed, baked,
boiled or riced-rice, oven-fried corn
meal mush, hominy grits, large hom-
my. baked beans, lima beans, split
peas-all are good served as vege-
tables, with meat and gravy. 1t is not
necessary to serve more than one of
these starchy foods at a meal, but
serving two of them, for instance,
well-browned, crusty croQuettes or
fried mush (and these can be cooked
in the oven instead of in the fat ket-
tle) in addition to potatoes or sweet
potatoes, makes the meal more tasty
for many of US and is an easy way of
securing variety. Aside from the
question of economy and convenience
the important thing in such n case is
not the number of cereal foods served,
but the character of the meal as o
whole, which must be truly varied and
not made up almost entirely of any
single type of food. We must have
other kinds of food in our diet in
abundance as we'll as starchy foods.
Therefore, in planning your bread
less meals make sure that you serve
an abundance of fresh vegetables,
such as green cabbage, kale, turnip
tops, onions, onion tops, dandelions
and other green's, asparagus, green
peas, tomatoes, spinach, carrots and
so on. choosing those which are in sea-
son and abundant in your garden or
your market. With a varied meal
planned in the usual way, except that
llle SeTNluSS Ol lHe SluTCuy lOOuS uhu
the vegetables are larger than usual
to make up for the bread, you can
have a breakfast, dinner or supper
which may be pleasing to the taste and
which will meet the body needs.
There are other food combinations
and dishes which you can take advan-
tage of in planning the meals with
bread. For instance, you may prefer
to replace part of your usual allow
ance of bread with n wheat-saving
dessert. These desserts furnish much
the same food materials as bread, but
in a different form: Rice pudding,
hominy pudding, Indian pudding, tapi-
oca cream or fruit tapioca, cornstarch
pudding. baked bananas (use bananas
which are underripe, because they are
richer In starch than the ripe ones),
or gingerbread made from the wheat
substitutes.

with water. Butter a baking dish and
put q layer of crumbs sprinkled with
cinnamon or nutmeg, then layer of
rhubarb and three or four tablespoon
fuls of corn sirup. Dot with butter.
Repeat until dish is full, covering the
top with buttered crumbs. Bake for
20 minutes and brown on top. This
may be served hot with or without
sauce.

FIND POTASH IN COLORARO
Richest Vein Ever Discovered In
United States Uncovered by
Trapper.

Longmont, Colo.-What geologists
say is the richest vein of potash ever
uncovered in the United States haa
just been found in the foothills few
miles from this city. The strata was
discovered by trapper. 1t crops out
of a rocky fault in the hills, Is four
feet thick at the surface and can be
traced for almost half a mile. The
depth of the vein has not ben deter
mined. An assay shows the substance
to run 95-100 of one per cent potash.

Camp Devens, Mass.-The Sweet

RHUBARB-H0W
TO USE 1T

One of the food specialists en-
ployed by the United States de-
partment of agriculture is an en-
thuslast on rhubarb. Not only
does she demonstrate 1t in the
departmental kitchens and else
where, not only does she COM
mend its good qualities to wom-
en- everywhere, but she grows
1t in her own garden and pre-
pares it In her own kitchen for
use by her own family. Read
her statement of some Of the
excellent uses she finds for 1t.

Advance Guard of Many Good
Things in Way of Fresh
Fruits and Vegetables.
YOUNG LEAVES ARE TENDER
Expert of Department of Agriculture
Relates Her Experience in Making
Delicious Dishes-Some Recipes
Are Given.

l always hail with delight the first
tender stalks of rhubarb that grow in
my garden. They are the advance
guard of so many good things in the
way of fresh fruits and vegetables
that the spring and summer bring to
US.
Even the back yard or city garden
can have its clump of rhubarb. l find
1t one of the most useful plants in my
garden. BY cutting out the bloom
stalk before 1t natures and pulling the
stalks often 1 have good rhubarb all
summer. If neglected too long the leaf
stalks become woody, but the young
leaves in the center of the crown Will
be tender and usable all summer. The
leaf area should not be reduced too
much by harvesting, as it will weaken
the root and reduce the harvest the
following year. Even when fruits come
do not forget the rhubarD, and in pre-
serving time 1T repays me for my care
by saving me money.
Making Preserves.
Strawberries and raspberries are
usually expensive to buy by the crate
for preserving, but 1 make preserves,
using lTOIu " W
weight of rhubarb. Both raspberries
and Strawberries have decided flavor.
so that the rhubarb is not noticeable.
I allow the rhubarb to cook down
until fairly concentrated before adding
the berries. The result is n delicious
Jam or preserve.
From time to time 1 cut the rhu-
barb and, If 1t is not wanted for I'M
mediate use, put up few cans Tor
winter. I have kept some very sue
cessfully' by cutting into half-inch
pieces, packing in jars and filling to
overflowlng with cold water, then seal
ing the jars as usual.
Later in the summer 1 make n few
Jars of rhubarb conserve, cooking the
rhubarb with sugar until concentrated,
then adding nuts and raisins.
When rhubarb made It's appearance
this spring resolved to find n way to
use 1t without using more than my
share of sugar. have found that by
using corn sirup I can make rhubarb
sauce successfully.
Rhubarb Sauce.
Wash the rhubarb and cut in half
inch pieces. Put three cupfuls of the
cut rhubarb in a saucepan with two
tablespoonfuls of water and cook for
Ave minutes. Add one and one-half
cupfuls of corn slrup and cook to-
gether until the rhubarb is tender.
If you desire a sweeter sauce, n
tablespoonful or so of sugar will help.
one of my favorlte desserts is rhu-
barb tapioca.
Rhubarb Tapioca.
Soak a half cupful of pearl tapioca
In two cupfuls of water until soft. Put
in double boiler and cook until clear,
adding more water IL necessary. Add
a half teaspoonful of salt and stir in
two cupfuls of rhubarb sauce. When
cool add n teaspoonful of vanilla.
Chill and serve with cream.
Another favorite of mine is rhubarb
scallop. 1 save all leftover mullins or
biscuits made from the wheat substi-
tutes and grind them into crumbs.
These I use as a basis for scalloped
dishes.
Rhubarb Scallop.
Wash tender rhubarb stalks and cut
into pieces about an incn long. For
each cupfuI of crumbs use q cupful
and a half of the cut rhubarb. If the

With the French Army in France,
June 7.-Continued attempts by the
Germans to extend their lines on the
Disc met with disastrous failure. They
tried to get around Pont IEveque by
crossing the Oise in the neighborhood
of Carlepont wood, where the small
hill Montalagache stands out like
bastion, but the French drove them
back Immediately when they left the
protection of their lines.
The sector between the Disc and
the Aisne also found the allies very
active. They are determined to hold
this and are displaying the greatest
energy in improving their positions, at
the same time capturing small groups
of prisoners, most of whom show
signs of terrible fatigue and privation.
A French prisoner, who made his
escape from the German lines, de-
clared that hundreds of bodies of Ger
mans were lying around everywhere.
According to his story, the Germans
guarding himself and others had not
received rations since May 27' and
were compelled to live upon what they
found. The same conditions, he add
ed, prevailed throughout the German
armies in the front lines.

much laughter and applause two sea-

Imhof, Conn & Coreene constitute
one of the best known fun making

Hugh l.. Conn have been well known
figures in the two-a-day for the last
twelve years, but Marcelle Coreene
did not become a part of the trio I'M
til five years ago, when she was re-
cruited from musical comedy. She
appeared successfully in THE Alas

Roger Imhof has been as successful
as an author of vaudeville vehicles
and bulresques as he is as an Irish
comedian. The various sketches he
has appeared in, The Man From
Klondyke," The Fruits of Revenge"
1.-THE Doings of Surgeon Louder" and
the present act, are all products OF
his own pen. He has always been
partial to writing, and, in fact, started
life as a sub reporter.
Hugh l.. Conn has been in theat-
ricals for something like thirty years,
although he was not always an actor.
There was a time when he was very
good property man, and as such he
played small parts and helped out
many a more established actor in this
way. He was born in Rock Island,
