Do Not Hoard Canned Foods

their sleeves and spent hours studying

Now that we have all this canned

WAR AIDS GENERAL HEALTH
Sight Of Sturdy Soldiers and Sailors
on the Streets Declared to Have
Had Good Effect.

An observing physician says that
the presence in New York's streets Of
many soldiers and sailors has an indl-
rect effect on the health of civilians,
He believes that most persons become
initiative when they see one of Uncle
Sans men with head erect, shoulders
back and chest thrown out. The natur-
al result is deep breathing. and from
this comes improved digestion and cir
culation, thus causing better health.
The doctor called attention to the
fact that Poe in pointing out the psy-
Geological effect Of n person on an
other in regard to acts and manner
isms said he could figure many
thoughts Of persons in the streets by
watching their actions. AS an illus
trattn, Poe told of Il man hurrying
along in a slouchy manner until he APP
preached a hunchback, when he i'm
mediately Strengthened, the similarity
Of carriage causing an unconscious
effort Mt the instant the hunchback's
misfortune was flashed to the brain
Of the normal man.
Still another influence affecting the
general health of the public. due to the
war, is the increased number Of patri-
otto men who have gone into training
after rejection by army or navy sur
geons due to minor physical disability
Others, too, have undergone lesser sur
gical operations, long neglected. SO
that they might pass.

More That 100000 Pairs
of Shoes Needed for Army
Many for Pershing Warriors


Although the war department now
has on hand and contracted for a total
of 15,437,000 pairs of shoes. Secretary
Baker announces that nor than 1,OOO,-
600 pairs Of shoes will have to be OBJ
tanned for the army this year. This
is made necessary by the building up
of adequate stocks of reserves, both in
France and in this country.
General Pershing, having in mind
the length of time shoes are expected
to last the men in France, has re-
quested shipments of 1880 pairs of
shoes for each $4,000 men monthly, or
approximately nine pairs Of shoes for
each man annually. This quantity is
in excess of actual consumption, and
when a reserve supply is built up the
quantities will be reduced.
For troops in this country after the
first issue of 100 per cent, II per cent
a month is required for upkeep, and e
per cent as a reserve stock. At the
embarkation concentration camps 15O
per cent is the ratio for equipping Il
given number of men with 1926 per cent
as the ration for reserve stock. In
France the upkeep is placed at Is pei
cent for a given number of troops, with
Is per cent for the reserve supply.

"Lord Of the Sun and Moon,
Great Magician and Great
Thief"-A Monarch's Title

The youthful shah of Persia has an
amazing array of titles, ranging from
s%hah-in-shah, liking of kings) to such
poetical attributes as 1.-THE Rose of De-
light" "The Branch of Honor" and
"The Mirror of Virtue;" while his ma
jesty of Arracan used to be proclaimed
as Emperor Of Arracan, possessor of
the white elephant and the two ear
rings, and in virtue Of this possession
legitimate heir of Pegu and Brahma!
Lord of the twelve kings who place
their heads under his feet"
Somewhere in the wilds of Afghanis-
tan there is an Ameer who boasts of as
many high dignities as there are days
In the year, among them being:
1.-THE sovereign of the universe, whom
God created to be as accomplished as
the moon ut her plenitude; whose eye
glitters like the northern star; a king
is spiritual as a ball is round, who,
when he rises. shades all of his people,
and from under whose feet q sweet
odor is waited" But perhaps the most
remarkable title any monarch was ever
proud to own was borne by the king of
Monomotapa, whose praises were sung
by his court poets and musicians as
"Lord of the Sun and Moon, Great Ma
gician and Great Thief"
Another striking example of royal
dignity Is that of the former emperor
of China, whose recent coup d'etat
ended in such failure. He was hailed
by his subjects as '"The protector of
religion, whose fame is infinite and of
surprising excellence exceeding the
moon. the ~unexpanded jessamine buds
and the stars, whose feet are as fra
grant to the noses of other kings as
flowers to bees. most noble patron and

Made Solution Makes
Pasteurized Cream Whip.

People who use p%asteurized cream
often have trouble in getting their
cream to whip. This is due to the
substance called %viscogen, being de-
etroyed by heating. This trouble can
easily be remedied by adding a small
amount Of homemade viscogen, which
can be prepared as follows:
First dissolve two and a half parts
sugar IN five parts water.
Second, dissolve n part OF quick
lime in three parts water.
Mix the two solutions and let stand
q few hours. Siphon of, or pour of,
the clear liquid, and what Is left Is
an excellent substitute for viscogen,
which with proper care, will keep
for a long time. Use about q tea
spoonful for 1 pint Of cream.

For the Poultry Grower

We have in this country 1O4 vari-
cites of domestic fowls which have
been described and recognized as
standard breeds. There are various
classiications. Among these are such
terms as fancy and practical; gigs
and meat; according to their place Of
origin, etc.
For instance, all Of the recognized
breeds are said to be practical except
the bantams and games which are
said to be fancy or ornamental.
Under the so-called egg breeds are
grouped most of those that originated
around or near the Mediterranean sea.

Milk and Milk Dishes.
The value Of milk for the growing
family can never be too often express
ed. In these days when feed for the
cattle costs so much more than
formerly, when labor is higher and
very scarce the dairyman must raise
his price Of milk or go out Of bust
ness. Milk at IL to Is cents a quart
is cheaper food than meat. Cut down
on other foods but on the milk
for the family, for IN it are the growth
determinants or growth stimulants
which are so essential for a good body
framework and healthy blood. The yolk
Of egg and good butter are also rich In
this growth stimulant. A growing child
should have If possible three glasses
Of milk per day, even when eating the
usual amount Of solid foods found in
vegetables and cereals, milk is not a
beverage, ft is a food.
Milk with eggs In the form of Gus
tards is one of the best, most whole
some and easily digested desserts for
young people.
Skinned milk may be bought cheap
1y and Is q most nutritious food, lack
ing only tn fat, which may be supplied
in other ways.
For cream soups SKINNED milk may
be used, and egg added to supply the
lack Of fat with butter and flour used
in the binding makes it is as good as
whole milk. Cold skinned milk may
be given the children at meals for their
drink i'm summer and hot in winter.
If plenty Of good butter is supplied
the child will be we'll fed. Cheese in
various forms may be used tn the place
of meat; as soufties with macaroni in
cream, sauce ove toast, in cream po-
tatoes or escalloped potatoes and in
many other dishes which will occur to
the house mother. A simple and
wholesome supper dish which Is easy
to prepare is the following:
Spread the required number of slices
Of bread with butter, place in a shall
low granite baking pan, w each
slice with a thick layer of finely cut
cheese, or grated cheese may be used
if tt is dry, then pour over enough
milk and eggs to cover the cheese.
Use n egg. for every cupful of milk
used, add salt and a dash Of cayenne
pepper, then bake until the custard
is set. Serve hot.
A glass Of hot milk for the restless
child upon going to bed will often
prove most soothing. Milk is too val
liable a food to be sighted or cut out
of the diet because Of its cost. 1t will
be far better to cut down on the meat
and buy more milk.

First Authentic Report

That the fame and appreciation Of
the Cowboy band has spread beyond
the limits of the city and country and
that this live-wire organization is pop-

tested by the laudatory comments
regarding the tractor show recently

a statement with which hundreds of

Prof. J. G. Wooley, head of the ag-

charge of the demonstrations by the
tractors. He gave splendid satisfac-
tion and made many friends for the
university by his intimate knowledge
of his work and his kind, courteous
and obliging manner.
The comments regarding the tractor
show, which will be of interest to all
farmers and others interested In DOW
er farming and general motor work
and which have official sanction, are
as follows
"A tractor demonstration at this
time of the year is sure to mean a

was no exception to this statement.
The field selected for the demon
stration was fairly level but had been
pastured to the date of the demon
stration and was very hard and dry.
The fact that the tractor can be used
to plow this kind of ground is one of
the main points in its favor. There
were eight machines exhibited and
over half of these were shown by
farmer owners. These men are to be
commended for their generosity In
using their machines as it meant moth
ing to them except that Grangeville
should have good showing at their
tractor meet. The field was laid Off
into lands the size depending ON the
rated horse power of the motor and
each machine plowed on an individ-
ual land. There was no appreciable diff
ference in the soil over the field so
this gave each an opportunity to com
plete his land on scheduled time
"Ten readings of depth were taken
published in at the end of each days
work. Below is brief summary Of
the plowing records:
