THRESHERS CAREFUL
SAYmSU.S.|NSPECT0R

&C. Leamon, U. S. Inspector OF
Threshing, was in the county Mon
day of this week looking wei the
methods in vogue toward grain saw
ing. Mr.. Leamon spoke ~favorably to
County Agent Weld of what he saw
and said that Grant county thresher-
men in general were conforming
finely to the governments require
ments. Mr.. Leamon found more tight
bottom grain racks used here than in
many other Wisconsin counties.
Threshermen are fully informed as
to what the government expects and
e~vasions will not be tolerated. For
instance one man was running his
machine so slow that much of the
grain went to the stack. A slight
adjustment cleared the trouble. An
other man was running too fast with
waste of the same nature. He was
rather obstreperous but finally cor
rected the defect.
Mr.. Leamon says that much grain
has been saved by the threshers OF
the country. In Kansas the waste
saved amounted to six million bush
els. In Iowa two millions were say,
ed.
Mr.. Leamon carries a canvas to
catch the chaff and Sits it out. II
more than a pint of grain is thrown
with the chaf while 2k bushels are
threshed the waste is excessive and
must be checked. Another idea that
tight bottom racks are not necessary
is entirely wrong. The racks must
be tight and the threshing men them
selves as members of the food admin
istration are expected to enforce the
rules.

SUGAR SUBSTITUTES
TABLES SHOW PROPORTIONATE
COMBINATIONS IN FOOD
PREPARATION.

My family will not eat it. no long
er holds as an xcuse for housewives
to avoid using other sweeteners than
sugar says A. HI. Melville, executive
secretary for the Wisconsin food ad-
ministration.
Formerly there was doubtless
some waste of food because their
cookery was unpalatable due to ig-
norance of the right proportions of
sugar substitutes for recipes.
but now the conservation divi-
sion Of the food administration gives
a table of weights for combinations
of sugar and other sweeteners. After
many experiments, these proportions
are found to be successful in cook
ing"
The table follows:
Sugar Corn Syrup Glucose Honey
Alb Ib. 0 0 0
Bid lib. 5 OF. 40 OF. AS OF.
C--1-2 Ib. 10 OF. 80 OF. 81 OF.
OLA lib. 1872 OF 14.9 OF 14.9 or.
E--0 lb. 1928 lb. 1.24 Id. 1872 OF
The resulting product contains, in
total solids, the equivalent of one
pound of sugar. This is for all prac-
tical purposes using IA times as
much of the other sweeteners by
weight as the weight of the sugar re-
placed.
Sugar Liquid Sweetener
2 cups 0 cup
/ 1-2 cups 2-5 cup
1 cup AS cup
IL cup 1 1-3 cup
cup 1 ga cup
The resulting product contains the
equivalent of one pound of sugar. In
substituting by measure, one cup of
sugar is replaced approximately by
three-fourths cup of the other sweet
enrs.
If these substitutes are used in
recipes where amount of liquid is an
important factor, decrease the liquid
of the recipe 3-S cup for every pound,
on IA cup for every cup of liquid
sweetener used.

CAMPAIGN IS
NEARING END
County Drive for Lutheran
Soldiers and Sailors fund
Closes Tuesday.

Available reports from captains of
the Lutheran Soldiers and Sailors
fund raising campaign indicate that
the rural districts of Grand Forks
county are doing far better than the
city.
The first six names on the report
received from the country today by
Sveinbiorn johnson. county chairman,
shows a subscription of IS, for each
of the six names.
O. Il. Laeeson. who is in charge of
the campaign in Rosendal sent in n
complete report from Il small congre-
cation of which S. O. Braaten is the
pastor, indicating that s146.50 has
been subscribed. Capt. .iunder Sale
n of the congregation at East
Walle has subscribed s1O4.5O. A very
small congregation at Gilby has sub
scribed $22.O5. according to a report
from the pastor, knut Gullikson.
An incomplete list of subscriptions
from out of the city shows a total of
approximately $500.
Mr.. johnson said today that there
was no doubt as to the success of the
campaign in Grand Forks county, if
the city congregations are as liberal
in their contributions a. are the peo-
pie of the country. The campaign
closes tomorrow, and it is hoped that
the complete reports will show an
overwhelming success for the county
as well as for the city.

COAL EMBARGO
MAY THREATEN
LOCAL SUPPLY
f. B. Griffith Joins State
Administrator Baker in
Protest

The embargo which the national
fuel administration is planning to
place on all shipments of dock coal
to h Dakotas. threatens this part
Of North Dakota with the possibility
OF a serious shortage, according to r..
B. Griffith. chairman of the Grand
Forks district of the state fuel admin
istration. "
Mi. Griffith said today that State
Fuel Administrator I. p. Baker at
Bismarck had received Il telegram
apprising him of the fact that such
an embargo was being considered;
the telegram came from Manager OF
Distribution Morrow Of the national
administration. n it made it plain
that the purpose Of the embargo
would be to make North and South
from the Ignite fields of North Da-
kota and the coal fields Of Montana
and Wyoming.
Agrees With Captain Baker.
Mr.. Griffith most emphatically said
that he is with Captain Baker in Wig
orously protesting. against any such
action on the part of the national
fuel administration. Some of MIR.
Griitith's reasons for this are incor-
DR.. H. Garfield and are to this effect:
The proposed embargo is to be on
all dock coal shipments into the two
Dakotas for a period of sixty days,
with the exception of that intended
for the use of public utilities in or
der that the surplus production in
North Dakota. Wyoming n Mon
tana be absorbed for natural bene-
fits. Admitting a temporary surplus
produced in these states it cannoe
take the place of anthracite in this
state. and it has beer reduced to an
absolute minimum compatible with
regard for public necessity.
"Lignite and bituminous coal are
being used to the fullest practicable
extent. Most of the domestic con-
sun1ers Of the state are using stoves
unsuited for the consumption Of any
thing but stove and nut sizes of an
thracite. 1t would be criminal to de-
ny them the needed supply of an
thracite at this stage of the winter
when they cannot obtain other equip
ment during the passing season.
There would be no objections to Il
limitation of the shipments Of dock
coal into the state subject to the re-
~quiren,ents of his purpose and use
Of public utilities. but at the present
permissible prices it would be out
rageous to compel North Dakota to
absorb Aontana's and Wyoming's
surplus tonna"e. making the cost of
such coal to our consumers unjustl-
liably excessive

Final Lecture in Series Will
be Delivered Tomorrow

Prof. o. G. Libby has given splendid
