IGNITE RATE
HEARING HERE
Railway Commissioners of Three
States to Consider Fuel
Distribution

A further development Of the lig-
mite industry of North Dakota is eX-
pected to result from a conference of
railway commissioners in Bismarck
on March 26, when the question OF eX-
tending to Minnesota and South Da-
kota the favorable Ignite rates now
prevailing in North Dakota will be
discussed Arrangements for the con-
ference were made by Commissioner
Charles W. Bleick when he called ups
on the Minnesota commission a week
ago.
1t has become a practical certainty
that North and South Dakota must
during the coming fuel year depend
upon North Dakota Ignite, and there
i sa heavy demand for this popular
fuel in eastern Minnesota and even in
the Twin Cities. The Gopher state
does not care to face the possibility

can avoid this ordeal if it can con-

with the eastern coal supplies. South
Dakota has fe" Ignite mines in its
northwestern corner, but the produc
ton has not been sufficient to date
to make much impression On the
states consumption. and South Da-
kota will look largely to its sister
state for relief.
Especially favorable rates procured
for North Dakota consumers through
the activities Of the railway commits

this state. Ignite may be shipped
from the central coal fields to any
part of the state at rate not much
exceeding $l.25 the ton, meaning that
with the fixed price Of $3.50 prevail
ing at the mine, the ordinary furnace
size fuel can be laid down in any
corner of the state at not to exceed
$2.75 the ton. If the local retailer is
satisfied with a reasonable profit, the
Ignite should not cost the consumer
more than s. the ton, as compared
with 50 to SIS for eastern fuels.
The North Dakota railway commits
sion agrees with Federal Fuel Admin
istrator Baker that Ignite should be |
mined, shipped and stored during the

the crop movement is lightest. The
North Dakota board particularly calls

Julia O. Newton, state agent Of the
home economics extension depart
ment, will give the next demonstra'
''tion in Bismarck on March IS at
p. IN. and March 19 at $3.50 p. NJ. at
the Masonic temple. Her subject will
be Dried Vegetables" ....
One of the most prominent features
of the food conservation program of
European countries has been the uni
versal drying of fruits and vegetables.
The drying of vegetables may seem
strange to the present generation, out
to our grandm0thers it was no novelty.
Many housewives even today prefer
dried sweet corn to the product can
aed by the old method, and say also
that dried pumpkin and squash are
excellent for pie making: Snap beans
often are strung on threads and dried
above the stove.
Even though the drying of fruits
and vegetables as practiced few
decades ago has become practically a
lost art" the present food situation
has caused marked stimulation OF
drying as means OF conserving the
food supply North Dakota will pro-
duce large quantities Of perishable
foods this year, which should be saved
for storage, canned, or properly ddied.
Drying is not a panacea for the entire
waste evil, nor should it take the place

KEEPING WARM
BIGDIFFICULTY
WRITES HENRY

One Of the freshest messages from
the front received in Bismarck by
mail is a letter which came Tuesday
from Major Frank S. Henry to Mr.. and
Mrs. e. J. Taylor. Major Henry wrote
February 19, and his letter was just
81 days on the way.
Major Henry's note is charact eris-
tically cheerful. February was raw
and chilly, and the boys had some diff
ficulty keeping warm, but they were
looking forward to March, (which we
understand is a beautiful season in
France The major suggests that
France would be a wonderful place to
visit in times of peace. He reports
everyone well and in good spirits and
sends his best regards to his Bis
marCk friends.
Eugene Morris of Co.. A last week
cabled his parents. Mr.. and Mrs. L. E.
Morris that he and his brother were
safe and in good health and that
American mail is beginning to reach
the trenches. He advised that two
letters posted here in January had
reached him.

DEMONSTRATIONS OF METHODS OF
DRYING VEGETABLES TO BE. MADE

cilities are available or tin cans or
glass jars can be obtained readily at
a. low cost Dried products require
fewer jars, cans, or other containers
than do canned fruits or vegetables;
also dried material can be stored in
receptacles which can not be used for
canning.
10 the housewife in the town the
drying of vegetables and fruits pre-
sents special advantages. During the
season when the market is oversup
piled locally and prices are low she
can lay in stock, dry it. and put it
away for a winters emergency with
out taking up much of the needed
small storage space in her home. II
she is accustomed to canning her fruit
and vegetables and finds she can not
secure jars or tin cans. she can easily
resort to drying. With simlpe and IT.
expensive facilities, all housewives can
save quantities of food which are too
small conveniently to can. Even when
very small quantities are dried at a
time, quantity sufficient for meal
will soon be secured. Small lots of
several dried vegetables, such as cab
bage, carrots, turnips, potatoes, and
onions, can be combined to advantage
for soups and stews.
There has been an attendance OF
l00 at former demonstrations Next
week it is hoped not less than 200 will
turn out.
