Preservation Plans !.
Made BY Nature

Nature is very busy just now
Everywhere seeds are springing up
from the ground and there are pros
poets of bounteous harvests of all
kinds. In country and town one
sees neat long rows in which are
planted various products that go to
maize UP a vegetable garden.
THY will soon be coming on
these vegetables. Everywhere there
is greatly increased production; peo-
pie who have never before been
anything but consumers are all of
a sudden raised to the rank of pro-
ducers. With increased production
comes the question of how to in
crease preservation. At this time in
the worlds caraer, when national
larders are sadly depleted in every
country, it would almost be a GRIM
inal act of negligence if garden
products should go to waste for
want of knowledge of and facilities
for preserving them. There are
many housewives in every commu--
nifty who would gladly put up fruit
and vegetables if they knew how.
Perhaps, having met with failure
and absolute waste of material on
some previous occasion, they are re-
luctant to- begin again. And in this
they are right. For nothing is gain
ed if a large quantity of foor is
canned that spoils during the winter
and has to be thrown away. It is
plain to be seen that these women
need some instruction in the art of
preservation of food by canning.
Now in every community there are
also women who are experts in all
the intricacies of canning. They can
tell at glance the right stage of
fruits and vegetables; and they can
accurately diagnose the troubles of
fermentation and mould, of souring
and flatness of taste. Such women
are eminently qualified to instruct
their inexperienced sisters. Why
not arrange a series of neighborhood
meetings when the time for canning
arrives. Why not bring ones prod
ucts to be canned to some central
place and do this work together.
There is sociability one will derive
from it that will make an otherwise
tiresome task most pleasant. Isn't
that the secret of some of the re-
markable success of the Red Cross
Ask the women who are working the
hardest if they would be willing to
give up the WORK at the club rooms.
They will tell you they miss it when
ever they stay away; that working
together is real fun. Where could
one find such community centers, is
the next question? The writer has
in mind the plans of certain Wo-
I1caiA 6CltOI1C SOQlCl1
that has obtained the cooperation Of
the churches of the city and is ma
king arrangements for women to
meet in these church kitchens for
instruction and work every day in
the week. There are other cluD
kitchens in every town. What about
the fraternal order to which you be-
long? What about the place where
the Red Cross itself is doing its
work? Maybe there is a kitchen to
be had there. Last of all there are
our schools that are equipped in so
many places with domestic science
departments. The school is becom-
ing more and more of factor in
social affairs; use it. What finer
purpose could these kitchens serve
than that of helping replenish the
food supply of the United States?

WILL ERECT \ COTTAGE
 FUR WIVES OF SOLDIERS

SPOKANE, Wash, April 5-For the use of young wives of soldiers who visit them at Camp Lewis or wish to remain near them for a while, the Woman's Christian Temperance Un- ion of the state plans the erection of a cottage near the camp. Every local union in the state has been asked to contribute toward the enterprise, either cash or furniture for it's equip ment.
 The proposal was advanced by the western division of the W. c. T. U. in Washington, and endorsed by the east ern division at a conference here re- gently. Under the plan, the visiting wives will pay nominal sum for their board and lodging, and the sur roundings are to be made as homelike as possible.

USEFUL SUGGESTION
 OF MONTANA MAN

MISS0ULA, Mont, April 5.-"You can save money and hit the kaiser a serious blow by vanishing the soles of your shoes," says R. R. Fenska' acting dean of the school of forestry of the University of Montana. Shoe soles that have been vanished will last four or five times as long as others. They also will be absolutely waterproof"
 A half pint of copal varnish, no shellac varnish, that costs 25 cents is all that a person will require a year. After a shoe has been worn a little while and the shoe is dry put a coat of varnish on the sole and let it soak in. Repeat the process every half hour until the soles refuse to take more varnish and then let the shoes stand for twelve hours in a dry place.

SOLDIERS ARE TO SLEEP
AT THE LIBERTY HUT
2. M. c. A. Plans to Open Dormi-
tory With at Least 500
Beds.

To meet the need known to exist in
Washington every Saturday night and
frequently during the week an i'm
mense dormitory for the accommoda-
ton of enlisted men at the Liberty
Hut on the Union station plaza Is
being planned by the Young Mems
Christian Association. With probably
500 beds to start and every other ia
cility for putting up over night the
men in uniform, the project is be-
lieved to be one of the biggest ever
undertaken by the Y. NJ. c. A. in
Washington. Plans are now nearly
completed for the opening Of the
larger part of the Liberty Hut, with
the exception of the auditorium as an
immense rest room for men in uni
form in which soldiers, sailors and
marines are at all times welcome.
Originally it was planned to open
the rest rooms last night. but
freight embargo has prevented the
bedding and other materials from
reaching Washington in time. All the
material is still held up somewhere
between New York and this city.
The Y. NJ. c. A. secretaries in the
hut will be in charge of c. B. A.
Bryant, formerly ~ secretary at
Camp American University.

AUTOMOBILE MAKERS
ARE GUILTY OF FRAUD
-
Emerson Motors Company and
Other Concerns Convicted Of
Illegal Use of Mails.

NEW YORK, June 29-After more
than twenty hours deliberation a
jury in the federal court here today
found the Emerson Motors Company.
Inc, and several corporate and In
dividual co-defendants guilty of using
the mails to defraud. The defendants
found guilty are the Emerson Motors
Company. Inc: c. r. Berry & Co.
Robert p. Matches & Co. Nicholas
Field Wilson. Robert P. Matches.
William Loomis and Osborne Z.
CLANCY. There were thirteen counts
in the indictment. with maximum
years Imprisonment. and an aggre-
gate maximum fine of $4,000.
Some of the defendants found guilty
were convicted on all the counts and
the rest on twelve. They will be
sentenced next Tuesday.
Theodore A. Campbell. president Of
the Emerson Motors Company; his
son, George N. Campbell: George B..
Clifford and William H. Stetson. other
co-defendants. were acquitted.
The government charged the back
ers of the Emerson concern with
fraudulently representing to in
vestors- that they would manufacture
and sell automobiles in such num-
bers that they could be priced at
1895 and bring earnings of per
cent on preferred stock. The postal
authorities interfered after $500, 900
had been collected from buyers of
the company's stock. the prosecution
declared.
The defendants maintained the
company was organized in good faith
and that only obstacles Incidental to
the war prevented it from being a
successful venture.

TO HONOR POLICE Who
GAVE LIVES TO SERVICE
Roll Of Honor Memorial Tablet Is
Being Planned for Washington.
Contributions Received.

A roll of honor memorial tablet,
similar to that which has been erect
ed in New York and other cities. is a
possibility in the near future in the
National Capital in honor of police
men who have given up their lives in
the performance of duty. Contribu-
tions received up to yesterday amount
to nearly $1,000. The treasurer Of the
fund is Clarence F. Norment. National
Bank of Washington.
Washington is perhaps the only city
in the country of any size which has
not a memorial of some sort to those
who have lost their lives while pro-
tecting life and property. New York
city, in addition to having a large
bronze tablet in the city hall upon
which are inscribed all the names of
those who have fell, has an individ-
ual tablet erected in each station pre-
cfnct from which a man has died.
D. c. Policemen Martyrs.
The number of policemen who have
been killed while on duty is not very
large, but the records do not take ac-
count of those who have received in
jurfes from which they subsequently
died. The most recent deaths in the
line of duty were those of Lieut.. Da-
vid j. DUNCAN. who was killed May
81, and Private John A. Conrad. who
lost his life at the same time. Others
who have been killed while on duty
include Francis M. Doyle, father of
the captain at present of one of the
precincts, who was shot December
20, 1871; John P. Fowler. September
9. 1884: Americus H. Crippen. Novem-
Der 5. 1889: Junius B. Slack. Novem
ber q, 1891, and John J. Smith, July
Z, 1904.
The erection of a similar roll of
honor memorial and also the holding
of annual memorial services have
been given consideration in the local
police department several times in the
past few years, but not until the re-
cent shootings has there been crys-
talliZed a desire on the part of the
public to honor those who have given
their lives to the service.

The Public Library has been hard
hit by designations during the past
year. The following explanation Of
the resulting deficiencies in library
service is given:
"The library would like to give 100
per cent service to the public. in
Guiding especially the newcomers to
Washington. The. following, are some
of the reasons for deficiencies in the
service:
81. In twelve months the resigna-
tions have numbered 90 per cent of
the library staff. Employees have gone
to government departments at dou-
BILE the salaries paid by the library.
All library salaries are fixed by law.
"2. The recruits, no less than the
remaining original staff, desire to
give good service, but, to large ex-
tent, are inexperienced.
"3. The staff was too small in peace
time The increase in population
has brought larger crowds to the
library. The library staff has re-
mained periodically stationary in
numbers.
these conditions cause congestion
and delay. The consideration and CO.
operation of the public are requested
under these trying circumstances"

NDANGER OF RUIN
WAR Department Plans to
Erect Building in His
toric Grounds.
PROTEST BY ARCHITECTS

The American Institute of Archt-
tects has protested against the erec-
ton by the quartermaster's depart
ment of the Army of building In the
historic garden adjoining Octagon
house. 18th street and New York ave-
nue..
Members of the institute, who own
and occupy the historic building, be-
lieve that the proposed erection OF
building in. the beautiful garden will
completely destroy the spirit Of the
, garden and at the same time render no
effective aid to the Army, as there is
other property in the neighborhood
which might be obtained by the Quar-
termaster Corps.
On the ground of government need.
however, and for fear of misunder-
standing and a possible charge Of lack
of patriotism. the institute has granted
permission to the quartermaster's de-
partment to erect the proposed addi-
tion to the building at 1929 New York
avenue, now occupied by it.
Old Trees to Be Cut.
The quartermaster's department, 1t
Is understood, proposes to erect
building 40 feet wide by 135 feet long
in the garden, necessitating the cut
ting down Of majority of the old
trees therein. The work is scheduled
to begin this week.
This would completely spoil the
spirit Of the old garden-a spirit which
could never be restored" one member
of the institute has declared.
The garden is regarded as one of the
beauty spots of Washington. and Is
open to the public at all times. 1t is
utilized by scores of war workers
every day. 1t is declared.
The garden was laid out at the time
