REACHED END OF PATIENCE
Rookie Felt He Hadn't Enlisted IN
Army to Be Made Permanent
Bird Tender.

A western bishop, just back from
France, where he spent some time at
the front, tells the following anec-
dote as illustrative Of the lighting
spirit of the American soldier:
again and again, whenever his regl-
ment had any orders for activity, II
fell to the lot of one 'Yank' to take
charge Of q crate of carrier pigeons for
one Of the officers. Always the same
private was selected for the monot-
onous. unexciting task. 1t became
standing poke in the regiment, and the
pigeon tender became more and more
disgruntled. At last, on the eve OF a
battle, he again received orders to
take charge of the pigeons. He could
contain himself no longer. With an
air of absolute resolve he walked bold
" to the tent of the commanding ON
Ger and very firmly placed the crate
of pigeons at the door. On the crate
was a note:
"Here! take your d BIRDS
am going to fight"

standing at the door Immediately TOOK

the "old gentleman"
"Well, they won't" answered

Dry by q Fan.

In the household which possesses an
electric fan, the drying Of small guam
titles Of material can be easily done,
provided that special care be given the
preliminary treatment of the products.
All that is necessary Is to make trays
Of wire screening, with one end of each
or preferably both ends open. The
materials to be dried are spread thin
ly upon the trays, which are stacked
one upon another with the open ends
turned toward the fan and covered
with cheesecloth, and the fan is placed
close to the end of the stack and run
at moderate speed. thus driving a Wig
orous current Of air over the material.
Drying occurs much more rapidly az
the end nearest the fan, hence the
stack must be reversed after four to
six hours and again after a longer
interval.
All materials requiring blanching
that are to be fan-dried should be
blanched in steam or boiling water or
serious deterioration is likely to oc-
cur. Also, since the rapid movement
of air over the product has tendency
to dry out the surfaces Of the pieces
while the inner. central portions are
still too moist, fan-dried material
should be placed In baking tins and
placed In the oven Of a warm stove to
be finished. The door Of the stove
should be left ajar and the fire so
regulated that the temperature is held
at $50 to 100 degrees f. for two to
three hours, after which 1t should be
raised to $50 degrees #. for minute
or two In order to destroy any eggs of
fruit insects which may have been de-
posted In the material while exposed
in the drier. After this treatment the
product may be placed I'm permanent
containers, but should be examined
from time to time and returned to the
oven for a short redrying In case any
parts Of 1t appear to be too moist to
keep well.

pits, but 1t is difficult to get them out
in cold weather, so that when q pit Il
opened 1t Is desirable to remove its
entire contents at once. For this rea
son it Is advisable to construct several
small pits rather than one large one
and instead of storing each crop in q
pit by itself 1t is better to place small
quantity of several kinds Of vegetables
in the same pit, SO that it will be nee
essary to open only one bank to get
supply of all Of them. In storing
several crops in the same bank it lie
desirable to separate them with straw,
leaves, or other material The veg
etables from the small pit may be
placed temporarily In the storage room
in the basement, where they will be
easily accessible as needed for the

Curb markets are helping city wom-

err and less expensive route between
producers and consumers. Such Ihef-
kets are the shortest routes between
farm and city kitchens and are In sue
cessful operation In many American
cities. They have proved to be of real
service to both city and farm women.
The city women have found them re-

reaches the table by this method at
