RAISE IN SUGAR LIMIT
DOESN'T HELP LYNDEN
Not Much. Anyway, For Important
Cards Haven't Arrived Yet At City
Administrators Office

Fifteen pounds additional sugar
to save the fruis CROP above the orig
inal allotment of twenty-five pounds
may be obtained by Lynden famil-
les of four or more for canning pur-
poses. provided official cards permit
ting the increase are received by E.
Edison, Lynden sugar administrator
The cards sent Edison this week
were exhausted promptly, and he is
awaiting an additional supply. The
stores cannot sell the sugar without
the cards.
Mr.. Charles eHebberd, State Food
Administrator for Washington, shows
his anxiety over the present sugar
situation in the following statement:
81 am very much concerned about
the sugar supply. At the present ra-
tioning of three pounds per person
per month the supply of sugar for the
State of Washington will last about
two and a half months.
This shortage is due to several
reasons. Due to submarine warfare
there has been direct loss of IL mil
lion pounds, and the withdrawal of
boats for direct shipment to Europe
has added to the shortage. 1t is i'm
possible to get Philippine shipment.
Hawaiian are limited and Cuban dis
arranged. Moreover, because of COM
mercial and home canning there is
the greatest demand for sugar.
However. the Food Administra-

County Agent Carroll Will Discuss
Prospects At Important Gathering

Can the poultrymen of the Lynden

be the last poultry meeting in Lynden

TELLS WHAT TO USE IN PLACE
OF SUGAR WHILE CANNING

''In spite of the acute sugar short
age, fruit must be canned and stored
for the winter" says Edna E.Walker,
Assistant State Leader Home Demon
strators. Extension Service State Col
lege of Washington. The Food Ad-
ministration is urging more canning
than ever this year, but with a min
imum amount of sugar. Sugar may
be saved by i.ying par. of the fruit,
by canning fruit with little or no su-
gar, and by eliminating jams, jellies
and preserves from your winter sup
ply.
There are many substitutes which
may be used to take the place of
white sugar in canning. according to
glucose, honey. table sirup and mo-
lasses will all be found excellent sub
stitutes.
Learn to enjoy raw. fresh fruit for
dessert. 1t is more healthful than
pies and puddings. and is much more
easily prepared.
For canning acid fruit the follow
ing combination OF sweetening is re-
commended by the Food Admins
tration: Use measure sugar, 1 mea-
sure corn sirup and measures wa
ter Combine and bring to boiling
point, then pour over jars of closely
packed fruit. Follow the Cold Pack
method of canning recommended by
the United States Department of Ag
riculture.
Can all you can with as little sugar
as you can, and you will be doing
your bit to defeat Kaiserisme

Opaki Hard to Capture.

The home of the opaki, In the west
ern half Of equatorial Africa, Is for
est cloister 600 miles long, $50 miles
wide and 700 miles from the coast
a dismal and inhospitable region of I'M
broken wilderness. Into this retreat,
inhabited by cannibals, strewn with the
graves of thousands Of white men and
visited almost daily with terrific trop-
ical thunderstorms, with intervals of
intense and humid heat from a torrid
sun, the Lang-Chapin expedition ven
tured in 1909.
For six years its members stalked
the opaki, a mysterious creature, noe
turnal In its habits, with a sense of
hearing inconceivably acute, and so
wary that only one specimen had ever
been obtained. Few white men had
ever seen an opaki, but, thanks to the
determined efforts Of Sir Harry John
ston, the gifted explorer and colonial
administrator, the British museup
was in possession of the remains of
one Of these animal refuses.

people that government service,
whether In maintaining order or in
constructing physical improvements,
| enhances land values and not labor
values. When, for instance, the CON-
| mission that supervises the rebuild
ing of Palestine has constructed rail-
roads, opened schools, established JUS
tice, and brought order out Of chaos,
1t will be found that live stock, grains,
fruits and the various products of hui
man labor will be worth no more than
before. The quantity will have in
creased, but not the value. The land,
however, being fixed In quantity, will
have increased in price.
Here lies the opportunity for the
Jew to demonstrate great truth to
the world by uniting the Mosaic pr1n-
ciple Of land ownership with Just
system Of taxation.
BY applying this system Of taxing
the land values that are created by
the community 1t will not be necessary
to tax labor values. This will prevent
any gain to landowners as landowners
and so stop land speculation-that
curse that has strangled economic
growth in all other countries. 1t will
at the same time free industry from
the tax burdens 1t has hitherto borne,
and so stimulate labor and capital to
the highest degree In the creation Of
wealth.
The outlook for the rebuilding Of
Palestine Is the brighter because the
land and taxation questions have al
ready received much attention from
the Jews. DR.. Stephen s. Wise, the
acting head Of the Zionist movement
in America, recently expressed the
hope that the day was near when the
ideal of the Single Tax in practice
would be realized I'm Palestine what
great thing it would be-" he wrote,
'if we could, IL the ideal which goes
back to the Mosaic commonwealth,
which was revived by man Of pro-
phetlc genius Henry George, and again
by that real man and Jew, Joseph
FEELS, should at last find fulfllment I'm
the Jewish land" 1t was to this cause
that Joseph Fels dedicated himself
and his fortune: and had his life been
spared he would today be bending
all his energies toward aiding the
Zionsts in rebuilding Palestine on
solid foundation. Such men are repre-
scented on the commission that under
takes this great work.
