for heating. This will be needed
when the air contains much moisture
An effective method of heating the
air is by the use of a hot-water radia-
tor at the intake end of the drier.
Fruits and vegetables meant for the
drier should be prepared by cleaning
as for table use. After cleaning they
should, be sliced thin. The slicing
process may be fastened by use of
slicing machine.
After a sufficient amount of mois-
ture apparently has been removed, it
is we'll to keep the product for sever
al days in a large container which
can be protected by either cloth
cover or wire screen. After a few
days, if there are no indications OF
moisture collecting on the dried pro-
duct, it should be placed in pans in
the oven or exposed to the sun or air
currents for a few hours and then
packed in permanent containers. The
enemies of dried fruits and vegetables
are moisture, insects, and rodents,
and successful storing will depend on
protection against them.

main point to keep in mind is to get
one that will move a sufficient quanti-
ty of air. If the fan will move air
fast enough for the suction to hold a
piece of cardboard or other material
one foot square and weighing eight
ounces against the wire screen at
the intake end, the drying will pro-

can be used, and among those that
have been found efficient are an old
ensilage cutter blower fan, separator
fan used on a blower threshing ma
chine, and a fan which had been dis
carded as a planning mill after use
there in drawing sawdust and shaw

fan may be operated by an electric
motor of from 2 to horsepower. or
by gasoline engine of similar power.

With President.
CROWDER SEES WILSON
Special Despdtch TO THE Su>.

WAsHINGroN, Sept. 3-President Will
son conferred for more than an hour this
| evening with Gen. Peyton c. March,
Chief OF Staff, and Provost Marshal Gen.
eral Crowder on the subject OF the gen.
eral scheme of exemptions under the
forthcoming draft Of $4,000, 900 men be-
tween the ages Of IS and As.
The numerous and complex problems
which such a draft creates were gone
over by the three officials upon whom
will fall the responsibility for the organ
ization of the vast army of more than
100000 men with the least possible dis
ruption of essential industry or OF COM
merce, finance and transportation.
Discussed by Cabinet.
The new draft was also the subject OF
protracted discussion at to-day's Cabinet
session. 1t is coming home to the heads
OF the various departments that the as
similation of the stupendous draft into
the military force of the nation presents
complexities of the gravest nature. 1t
Is assumed that the burden OF selection
under the ampl!fied selective draft act
must rest with the Government authori-
eide how the assimilation can best be
accomplished and at the highest speed
without causing industry to falter and
production to let down. But it Is a stag
gering problem. with which every Cabi-
net member is wrestling.
Fortunately the Administrations in
depreciation OF the draft law relieves
the registrant in large measure OF hav-
ing to decide for himself whether he is
essential TO the work OF the nation in
war, but at the same time the Govern
ment is finding the preparation of
complete and coordinate system of
automatic exemptions exceedingly diff
cult of preparation.
Police and Firemen to Stay.
One OF the early preliminary adjust
ments of the exemption problem was
issued from the office OF the Provost
Marshal General to-day wheH the modi
fication OF the rules governing police
men and firemen was promulgated.
Under the revision more latitude will
be allowed in the case of the guardians
here .cfore.
Employment for a period OF three
years previous to registration will no
longer be necessary Upon the affidavit
OF the registrant accompanied by a
sworn statement from the head of his
department that his employment is that
OF specially and highly trained and
qualified policeman or fireman and that
his induction into the military service
is serious detriment to the munc-
ipality which he serves he may be
exempted.
