Choose Your Food Wisely

the allies. Let the north try the southern corn bread and the south the oatmeal of the north. Half the fun of cooking is in trying new things. An oatmeal pudding is deli cious, and was recently published in The Citizen.
 Sugar and syrups are fuel, too and they give flavor to other foods They are valuable food, but many people eat more of them than they need. Sweet fruits, of course, con tain much sugar and are better fol the children than candy.
 Fat is fuel-some is need espe cially by hard working people. Re member that expensive fats are nc better fuel than cheap ones. Use drippings. Don't let your butcher keep the trimmings from your meat They belong to you. Children need some butter fat. Give it to them in plenty of whole milk or butter. WHITE WAR BREAD
 The following recipe, given by Mrs. R. S. Perkins of Juneau, and sent out by Judge Gunnison, feder al food administrator for Alaska is said to be very tasty, makes good toast, Is very white, and improves after the first freshness has worn of. It contains about 65 per cent substitutes. This bread demonstrates what can be done by the housewife with substitutes, and should be given fair trial by those who claim to be unable to make good bread with even 75 per cent wheat flour.
 Four cups luke warm potato wa ter containing little mashed DO tato, 1.3 cup sugar. l cake Fleisch mann's yeast dissolved in little luke warm water, cups white corn meal, cup milk. cups thoroughly cooked whole rice put through a sieve. 1a cup melted lard. table spoonful salt, to 12 cups white flour.
 This recipe makes loaves.
 At night put the potato water sugar and yeast together and let them stand till morning; then add cups of white corn meal and let rise one hour. Add the rice, milk lard and salt and beat well; add the rest of the cornmeal and enough white flour to make a stiff dough Let rise till twice its original bulk put into medium sized bread pans let rise till about double it's bulk again. and bake three-quarters ol an hour.

FAST TRIP IS MADE BY RUBY
 COMMISSIONER
Especial to The Citizen)

NENANA, June 4.-Thomas De- vane, the well known commissioner at Ruby, arrived at 12:3O P. M. in the fast launch Dixie Queen. The commissioner brought Mrs. Bert Day from the lower river town to the hospital at this place. He also car ried z other passengers from the lower Yukon town. MT. Devane states that he made very good run com- ing up from Panama, making the distance in 36 hours.
 = The launch Dixie Queen passed the A.-Y. N. steamer Seattle No. 8 just as the latter was going to Hot Springs. The steamer was pushing the barge McNab. which evidently hit a snag or some obstruction in the river 10 miles above Hot Springs. The crew of the Seattle stated that they were delayed for 40 hours on account of the acci- dent. After hitting the obstruction, the McNab rapidly filled, and a great deal of trouble was experienced in getting it raised. The barge was re. paired sufficiently, however, to al low the boat to continue its trip down stream.
 Commissioner Devane reports the death of F. B. Walker. who was very well known in the vicinity of Fairbanks in the early days of the town Word was received of MT. Walkers death just as the launch was leaving Ruby. MT Walker was part owner of the Mas cot bench on Long creek. His death was the result of cavein in the mine in which he was working last Saturday.

FLICHTY BIRDS
 HAVE NO CHANCE

That there will be no more es capes from the guards at the deten. tion hospital is evidenced by the equipment carried by the guards there--a nice large Winchester ri fie. A dead line has been estab lished and all prisoners cautioned as to the regulations regarding it. which under the instructions and penalties stated will not be crossed
 Those who made their try fol liberty took advantage of the time the guards were being changed and slipped off for a short distance and concealed themselves in hay stack emerging in the early hours of the morning to try and cross the river Circle being their undoubted desti nation. That they did not make their getaway was due to the guard ing of every avenue of escape by the marshals office, even to the river being patrolled by a launch. The two men were badly bitten by the mosquitoes during their short stay in the woods.

ARE REPAIRING
 CAVED IN LINE

Yesterday work was started on repairing the pipe line which caved ill during the high water. On Sec Ond avenue in the rear of the boiler house of the N c. Co. the ground was broken for many feet. making 1t necessary to close the street to traffic. In order to make complete repairs it will be necessary to un- cover the entire line on Second ave nue between Turner and Barnette.
 It is also thought that steam pipe was fractured, the escaping steam causing the water to become boiling hot, which, when boiling, thawed the frozen ground and wore away the dirt to such an extent that the cavein resulted. It will be many days before the work is com pleted.
