First Honor" Day
Tuesday, August 6

"Pay Up! Sign Up! Match Up"
is the latest slogan Of the War Saw
ings workers throughout the state
of Wisconsin. 1t is included in a
government notice sent out, an
nouncing August 6, as Pershing day.
the first of series of honor" days
to be noted before the close of the
War Savings and Thrift period on
December 81.
The honor" days have been
selected so that War Savings pledges
NAV be promptly paid as they fall
due, so that increased amounts may
be pledged and so that new oppor-
tunity will be given to every one to
make pledge.
On Pershing day, it is urged that
every one go to their bank, post
office or other place of payment and
pay all sums then due, including
August payment, and, if possible,
increase their pledges to the best
limit. 1t is also urged under the
''sign up" slogan, that all those who
have not already pledged, do so on
that day.
Match up says John H. Puelich-
er, director of War Savings for Wis
consin, with our boys over there
to whom Gen. Pershing has said:
Your country is proud of you. |
am proud to command such body
of men. You efought spIendidly.
"Our boys over there are making
good all their pledges. We must see
to it, here at home, that we do like
wise"
War Savings societies are asked
to present the matter of Honor"
days, in full, to their members, so
that all may be ready to pay their
pledges on Pershing day-the first
Tuesday in August Each first Tues
day of the month, thereafter, will
be an ''honor" day, and it is expect
ed that all will take advantage of
the opportunity to pay their pledges
on that day.

Army men and women doing it,
cheerfully, courageously and mod

The highest authorities Q f the
state and nation give their indorse-
ment to the campaign Of the Saliva
ton Army to raise funds with which
to carry on its war work which has
already made a warm spot for this
organization in h heart o f the
American Soldier.
There is hardly a war correspon-
dent who hasn't at some time or
other mentioned the Salvation Army
and told what it's hot coffee and CO.
Goa, doughnuts and pies and clean
bandages has meant to the man
in the trenches, ''said Maj. C. r.
Boyd, Milwaukee divisional officer.
The Salvation Army has thus far
carried on it's work largely with its
own funds but now finds itself con-
fronted with the necessity of appeal
ing to the public if its work of mer-
Icy at the battlefront is not to be
seriously impaired.
Here are some expressions from
men foremost in war activity in the
state and nations:
President Wilson, am very much
interested to hear of the campaign
the Salvation Army has undertaken
for money to sustain it's war activi-
ties and want to take the opportuni-
ty to express my admiration for the
work it has done and my sincere
hope that it may be fully sustained

Drying Fruit Reduces
Use Of Sugar

l. Use good material. Food Sc
lected for drying should be in the
same condition as that selected for
immediate table use.
2. Work rapidly. All foods and
vegetables should be dried as quick
ly as is consistent with good re-
suits.
3. Slice large foods to get more
drying surface. Small fruits, some
berries, mature beans and peas,
and small onions may be dried
whole.
4. Do not overhead. If the food
is to be!dried in the oven, the tenn
perature should not be too high,
otherwise the food will cook rather
than dry. At the beginning the
oven should be somewhat cooler
than1ater. The temperature should
never exceed 140 degrees F.
5. Be sure food dries evenly.
Food should be stirred frequently
during the drying process. This
prevents overheating and the growth
Of molds.
6. Keep foods free from dirt and
insects. Mosquito netting stretch
ed on frames will protect the food
from insects.
7. Do not allow food to become
damp during the drying process. 1t
is better to bring indoors at night
food which is being sun.dried.
8. All fruit should be thorough
ly dried before it is stored. Allow.
ing it to remain in dry place for
several days, turning it frequently
meanwhile, permits more complete
drying. This process is called
Conditioning
9. Store dry food in paper bags,
boxes, tin containers such as pals
and cracker boxes. Keep in dry
place free from insects.
10. Save the cooking liquid, that
is, the water in which the dried
fruit is soaked for "a hours before
cooking. Food should be cooked in
the water in which it has been soak
ed, and the liquid should either be
served with the fruit or vegetable,
Eor used in soups or sauces.

Peculiar Marks Found on Grain

Within the past two weeks a num-
Der of newspapers in this section
have commented on peculiar phe-
nomenon which appears on nearly
all grain crops this year, in the way
of letter "B" which in many cases
is plainly imprinted on the leaves
of the grain.
In order to satisfy our curiosity
we ventured into several fields last
week and gathered a handful of
three varieties of grain and found
that the little letter appeared on the
leaves of the three varieties exam
ined. The letter was not distinct in
every case, but nevertheless il was
there, and anyone who is skeptical
may satisfy himself by going into a
field of oats, wheat or barley and
examining the leaves for the evil
dence, which is there without a
doubt.
There is much speculation as to
just what the letter means and all
manner of ideas are being advanced
by the wise ones, all of whom seem
to think their answers are correct.
A few of the ideas advanced are:
The American soldiers will be in
Berlin before winter, "B-meaning
of blood, which is being freely
split" Bumper crops or big"
Some pro- Germans insist the letter
means that Berlin is destined TO be
the capitol of the world.
This phenomenon brings to mind
the fact that in 1868 the letter IN"
appeared on northern oats and
many at that time insisted that it
was an omen that the north would
win. Boyd Times Herald.
