using sour cream instead of milk, pre-
pairing 1t In the same way.
Onions are delicious baked In their
skins then peel them, season with but
ter, pepper and salt or cream, or If
desired in a white sauce. They have
quite a different flavor. Another de-
licious way to prepare onions Is to
roast them in the ashes or on the ledge
Of the furnace. Do not peel them as
the skin will often be burned and II
will be necessary to use care to re-
move all the charred portions.
Onions are also delicious stuffed
with sausage, and baked, basting dur

water.
Every particle of vegetable water
not used as sauce for the vegetable

EMPLOYMENT OF WOMEN

AS rule the employment of
women in farming operations
should not be considered II the
agricultural production can be
maintained by the employment
of men and boys. The depart
ment of agriculture does not
wish to urge the use of women
laborers on the farms unless the
man supply becomes exhausted.
The lively interest now being
shown by women In all parts of
the country who are eager to
volunteer their services to help
the men and boys carry out the
nations food production program
this year has forced the atten-
ton of federal officials to the
fact that needed work can be
done by these willing hands.
Women who can help farm wom-
en- with their work and who can
release men In the lighter In
dustries to do the heavier work
on the farms can give valuable
aid in the present labor emer-
gency.

Ready for Spring Drive?

Have you ordered the necessary

so at once. Don't wait until the spring
rush is upon you. 1t may be too late
then to get what you need. The Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture
has been urging farmers to make ar
rangements early for these materials
this year because of transportation
problems. 1t will soon be too late to
be early.

Not the Policy Of Agricultural Depart
ment to Call Upon GentIer Sex
Until Nations Food Produc-
tIon is Threatened.

Only when the man and boy supply
is exhausted and the failure of the
nations food production campaigns are
threatened. should the United States
call upon wo' .en to do mems work on
the farm.
That, briefly, may be said to be the
policy of the United States depart
ment of agriculture in the matter of
women as farm laborers. Badly as la
Dor will be needed to carry through
programs Of food production this year,
the department does not believe the
situation yet demands the employment
of women for the heavier farming op-
eAtions. Rather. it believes that ef-
forts now should be directed toward
perSuading able-bodied men In the cit
les to. do farm work and that commu-
nifty action should be directed to this
end.
Work for Women.
But there will be work to do for
the thousands of women who are Of
fering to help the farmers with their
big task. Helping farm women with
their added duties and taking the place
of men In the lighter Industries, thus
releasing male labor for the farms. are
important ways in which women may
aid agriculture's program, department
officials point out. Furthermore, wom-
en- can be expected to help. as they
have in the past, with the lighter work
of truck farming. in picking and pack
ing berries and fruit and with much
other light labor of food production.
De Il. I. kr..-
ems the harvest of the country's food
crops the department of agriculture,
in cooperation with the department
of labor and other federal and state
agencies, will request women to help
meet the situation. 1t has instructed
Its field agents to aid farmers In OBJ
tanning women workers when such con-
ditions arise.
Among the sources from which ad-
ditonal labor may be obtained on the
farms are: ~ from among the wom-
en- already on farms; (2) Srom rela-
tiyes of farmers who are living in cit
les and who are willing to work on
farms during slack business or indus
trial periods (3) from the foreign
women who are accustomed to work
In the fields under n system of inten-
sive agriculture before migrating to
this country; and (4) from women in
nearby villages and towns who might
be employed on farms and still live at
home.
II in any community 1t becomes nee
essary to employ women, the princi-
Pile problems to be met are to stimu-
late women to take up farm work and
to make farmers realize the necessity
of using woman labor in order to main
tain production.
Wages for Women.
The farmer desiring woman labor
ers should Indicate the kind of work
which he wants done, the amount, and
the probable dates and wages offered
and the woman Offering herself should
indicate the kinds of work she is Will
ing to do. and whether she Is willing
to work all day and every day in the
week. 1t should be thoroughly under
stood by all parties concerned that the
women are to receive wage equal to
that given men for performing the

Propagation Of BIadderwort Suggested

of Mosquitoes.

Not long ago, says the Milwaukee
Journal, Prof. w. g. Ringle, natural
list of Pittsburg, Kan, discovered in
a Kansas creek a bladderwort, a plant
that is usually found in more northern
streams. He took it to his laboratory
and placed it in a jar that contained
several small tadpoles, in order to
aerate the water and do away with
the necessity of changing 1t so often.
The tadpoles quickly began to disap-
pear in a mysterious manner, An in
vestigation resulted in the surprising
discovery that the small balloons on
the plant were traps and tombs for
the tadpoles. The plant had devoured
them. If it would consume tadpoles,
there is no reason why it should not

FARM AND CITY MAN

Spend five minutes thinking
over what you owe to the farm.
Very likely it gave you the
stamina and strength of charac-
ter that has made you a success
In the business world. Certain
~, it has given those things to
some Of the men upon whom you
rely for maintaining that sue
cess,
In one way or another, direct
~ or indirectly, it gives you a
large part, probably the bulk, Of
your business.
Without its contribution Of
food, neither your home nor
your business house could con-
tinue in existence.
That is what the farm means
and has meant to most city
men. You will know best just
what it means to you.
Now, having thought 1t over,
remember that the farm Is In
such dire need Of labor as it
has never known before.
And get ready to do what you
can toward repaying the debt
you owe the farm-not repaying
