General Foch's Great Army
Numbers Seven Million Men,

General Foch commands the largest
single army under one man in all his
tory, observes a writer In the Philadel-
phia Telegraph.
The French have under arms nearly
100000 men. The English army In
France is at least half of that. Amer
lea, 100000 men on the battle front.
There will be 100000 men under
General Foch on one front and moving
In the same direction.
Hindenburg does not have that many
on any n line or In any one army.
Napoleon's largest army was 100000,
and he never had over 1,O00,0 900 SOL
diers In uniform In his empire.
Grant had 100000 under his COM
mand during the last year of the Civil
war.
Wellington's largest army was under
100000.
Won Moltke did not have in any one
army In the Franco-P russian war a
quarter Of the troops now obeying the
commands Of Hindenburg.

SWAT THE ROOSTER

Many summer eggs spoil. They spoil
because they are fertile. Because many
of them spoil. eggs sell much cheaper
than they ought.
The rooster makes the eggs fertile.
he does not help to get more eggs. He
binders. Hens will probably lay more
eggs without the help Of the ROSTERS.
Then why keep the roosters over the
summer? There Is no reason at all.
When the produce man buys eggs in
summer, he allows for rotten eggs.
That brings the price down. Not only
Is there a loss on the price. but the
eggs are lost. That means waste.
Infertile eggs will not spoil. If they
are kept cool, they will keep fresh for
d long time. The fertile egg spells be-
cause the germ Of the egg begins to de-
velop. But there is no germ In the In
fertile egg.
Therefore, swat the rooster.
Keep clean nests for the hens.
Gather the eggs often.
Market eggs twice a week, at least.
And again, swat the rooster!

Those luscious berries, peaches, cher
ries, figs, and other fruits, SO abund-
ant this summer, can be made to sup
ply many desirable desserts for win
ter, and with little trouble. Practi-
cally all fruits can be canned at home
in ordinary canners or In a large ves-
sci with tightly fitting cover In fact,
fruits are easier to can than most veg
etables. They are prepared more
quickly and need to be boiled In the
Jars only once and generally for a
shorter time than is necessary to can
other products.
Canned fruits preserve most of the
delicate fiavors and succulence of
fresh fruits and are the nearest sub
stitute for fruits fresh from bush or
tree. They are very valuable In the
winter diet. They supply acids and
mineral substances very useful In
keeping the body In condition.
Do not cook or handle fruits In gal
venized vessels. The fruit acid at
tacks the zinc coating and makes the
product dangerous to health and spolls
its color and flavor.
Fruits Can Be Canned Without Sugar.
Don't let cost or difficulty of obtain
ing sugar deter you from canning
quantities of fruit this year. Fruit
can be canned without sugar. Instead
of using strip, simply fll the cans
with clean hot water and process In a
water bath. The fruit will not spoil.
but, Of course, will not have the fine
color and flavor which 1t would have
If packed in strip. The use Of even a
thin strip In canning fruits will give
a more attractive finished product
than can possibly be obtained by can
ming In water. If sugar is not avail
able, 1t will be well to consider drying
the fruits instead Of canning, since a
good dried product is far better than
a poor canned one. The importance
of canning in less water should be
stressed this year because OF the high
cost of containers. Fruits canned
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1918-07-18

without sugar or with the addition of
q very small amount of sugar may be
used for pie filings. desserts and In
other ways.
Fruits for home use can be canned
with orr strip or refiners' strip In
place Of part of the sugar ordinarily
used. Sirups with O distinctive flavor
add sweetness, but also, of course,
change the flavor of the canned fruit.
A little experimenting In handling
fruits should enable a housewife to
develop various combinations of fruits
and sirups which are pleasing to her
own family.
Caution: Fruits canned with plain
water Or with other than sugar strip
should not be sold until the Jars have
been labeled to comply with local and
federal requirements as to description
Of contents.
How to Can Fruit.
Boil empty Jars and lids for at least
fifteen minutes before you fill them
with the fruit. Rubber rings just be-
fore being put on the jars should be
cleansed by dipping for a minute into
a quart of boiling water in which a
teaspoonful of cooking soda has been
dissolved. Take the Jars out of the
water bath, drain quickly and fill,
while still hot. with the fruit prepared
as described below. Fill the jar with
hot strip or hot water. Put on the
lid but do not seal absolutely tight,
so as to allow for expansion inside
the jar.
Put the partially sealed Jars, while
still hot, into a hot water Gamer pro-
vided with a false bottom of Stats or
wire mesh. Do not put cold Jars into
hot water-or boiling water into cold
jars-theym crack. Boil (process) the
filled jars for the time specified in the
recipes, counting from when the water
In the Gamer begins to boil again.
Remove Jars; seal alright; whep
cold test for leaks and store In a
dark, cool, dry place.

An American Fighter

| AS per announcement in last week =
HERALD, Private Howard n. Covey.
and Chief Silver Tongue, the wonder
fui Indian singer, appeared here last
Saturday and Sunday evenings.
The meetings were held in the park
and large crowds attended both gath
erings.
Most of what Private Covey said
has already appeared in various
American official publications, but
lost nothing in being retoid.
He gave vivid picture OF the
many unspeakable barbsrities Of the
German soldiers and officers, and told
OF his experiences OF two years and
seven months on the fighting lines in
France.
He was badly wounded and spent
several months In hospitals In France
and England. He WAS one OF over
10000 Americans who enlisted in the
Canadian army, and went across
shortly after the outbreak OF the war.
Served in the famous Princess Pat
regiment, which went to France 100
strong, less than 80 OF whom are now
living.
Mr.. Covey urged his hearers to not
stop at any sacrifice to suppress the
Hun. He predicts at least two more
years Of the war.
The message Private Covey dcliv-
cred in Meeker had n good effect in
arousing our people to the Hun mem
nee.

The Hun Whines

In theGerman reichstag last Thurs
day, Imperial Chancellor Won Hert-
ling, In discussing the general politi-
cal and military outlook. from the
German standpoint, made "a pitiful
whine that the allies would not ask
for peace.
After giving vent to his displeasure
ut the Allies because they wouldn't
grasp at the peace Germany was
ready and willing to offer them, his
whine continues:
"What have we lived to see, how
ever? While for years there can have
been no doubt whatever OF our will
lingness to hold out our hand toward
an honorable peace, we have heard
until these last few days melting
speeches delivered by enemy states
men. President Wilson wants war
until we are destroyed. and what Mr..
Balfour, the British secretary of state
for foreign affairs, has said must real
ly drive the flush OF anger to the
checks of every German.
I'VE feel for the honor of our faith
er land and we cannot allow ourselves
to be constantly and openly insulted
in this manner, and behind these in
suits is the desire for our destruction.
Al long rs this desire for our destruc-
tion exists we must endure, together
with our faithful nation
This will probably be followed by
one of the kaiser's bombastic speeches
telling his people how he is going to
force German peace" with the
good German sword.

Ed Taylor Again on the Job

Congressman Ed Taylor Of this dis
trict has officially informed the chair
man of the Fourth Congressional dis
trict that he will enter the primaries
fOi denomination.
This will be welcome news to the
Democrats of the Fourth district, rs
well rs thousands of people "f the
other parties. Ed Taylor will be re-
turned to Congress by his usual plu-
rslities.
In a private letter to THE HERALD,
Ed says: II never issue any platform.
| simply tell the people ! will do my
level best for Colorado In general, and
the Western Slope in particular"
That's Ed Taylor. His "lOng suit
is performances, not promises.
He has loyalty stood by the Nation
al Administration in sll that related
to the war from the beginning till the
present time. Unlike some other
members OF Congress Demo-
cratic and Republican-there is no
Bolchevikian votes to be charged
against him.

Another German Whine
A Geneva dispatch says:

A Geneva dispatch says:
"Another campaign has been un-
dert,ken along the Rhine in order to
tOwhs.
'The landtag of the duchy of Baden
has been asked to request the grand
duchy to exercise its influence with
thcImperial authorities to come to an
arrangement with the beligerents to
abandon the aerial commandments of
towns outside the zone of military
operations"
In commenting on this new cam
paign the Lausanne Gazette declares
that the Germans have bombard.d
London and Paris from the air, many
more than u hundred times, while
the allies, during three years, for war
led reasons, wer. unable to reply, but
did not whine. Now the Germans,
it adds, after only few months of
bombardineut OF their open towns,
are crying "Kamerad."
AS long as t,ic Hun can 20 along

hospital ships and commit even
worse crimes, he is u brave fighting
