The number leaving Benfd today

and the Bemidji Home Guard acted
as escort to the draftees and to the
crash of stirring music the embroyo
soldiers proudly stepped to- the depot
where a large, crowd was in waiting

sweeth carts shed tears, the spirit of
youth in the draftees being: para

AS the train pulled out hush fell,
struggling cheers were heard and as

efal merchandise store, will take the
initiative.
The plan is simply a "help-your-
self, pay the cashier and call again"
The, store has been specially ar
ranged. Patrons will enter by the
main entrance as usual. They may
first help themselves to a basket at
the, entrance and them proceed
around the store behind the count
ers. On shelves will be grocery stock
of various varieties. They will all
be done in packages, the weight and
price on tag. Patrons may help
themselves and continue on their
round, supplying themselves with
whatever they desire. AS the exit
is neared, patrons will encounter a
cashier where the packages will be
checked, the sales totaled and the
customer pass out The basket is
only provided for convenience. But
if the patron desires the basket, al
GA few cents will. be required.
1t is a cooperative proposition all
around and one that will be watched
with interest both by the general
public and patrons of the store, and
Mr.. Kaplan says he believes 1t will
prove successful.

Washington, June 27.-Dehydra-
tion, or drying of fruits and vegeta-

ernment as a food saving measure,
costs but about n cent a pound.
q The process reduces the products
treated to from IT to 715 original
size, and leaves practically nom
perishable food, affected by, neither
heat nor extreme cold. It requires
no special container or sealing. Plain
paper bags to protect against dust
and insects, are the best and cheap

Re-hydration-rest the water
to the vegetable-requires from 20
minutes to two hours, and the re-
constituted product has lost neither
