SOLDIER AND SAILOR
 INSURANCE

To the man who has gone to the colors the United States Government offers the safest, the most liberal, and the cheap est insurance on the face of the earth. Approximately 3OO,- 900 men have already accepted the Governments offer, apply ing for insurance of about two and three-quarter billions of dollars. The average amount applied for per man is more than $500 which is very close to the $1O,OOO maximum pro- vided for by the law.
 This insurance total, great as it is, should be only the be- ginning. Every person in the military and naval forces of the Nation owes to himself and to those he loves, to avail himself of the full insurance protection. But the time in which he can do so is limited. Prompt action is imperative.
 Those who joined the serv- ice before Oct. IS, 1917, must apply for the insurance on or before February 12, 1918. Af- ter that, it will be too late. The automatic insurance which is provided until February 12, 1918, is only partial protection.
 Parents, brothers, and sis ters, who have a representative of their family in the Army or Navy should, for their own sake, and for his, write to him at once urging him, if he has not already done so, to buy the Government insurance. They should urge him to buy the full $1O,O0O, and above all to buy it now.

Monkey Wrench in Machinery
 The most eager man to get into the military service of the United States and at the same time the greatest stacker has been discovered, says the Ari- zona Gazette.
 Not content with placing his name once on the military rolls of his country, F. J. Van Hutte registered four times. But af- ter his promiscuous registering, he suffered lapse of memory and failed to report to any of the local boards and a general call was sent out for him.
 From the security of the Deming New Mexico jail he writes to governor Hunt with a plea that the governor get him out of his plight.
 Van Hutte, so the record reads, apparently wanted to be a soldier, and if registering would do it, he would be one. So, it is stated, he registered with the Pima local board at Tucson, with the Pinal local board at Florence and with the Hila board at Globe. Then he skipped across the state line and registered at Deming New Mexico.

The Victory Bun" which is made without sugar, requires but a small per centage of veg etable oil and which can be sold by bakers at a profit of one cent each, is the latest medium for conserving food to receive the consideration of the federal food commission for California.
 The inventor of the victory bun" is William E. Doty, a bak- CT of Miami, Ariz., who conduc- ted his victory bun experiments under the auspices of the Raj sin Growers Association of California.
 The victory bun, according to the formula submitted by Doty to the food commission er's office is as follows:
 Two pounds of water, one OF. of salt, two pounds of wheat flour, 12 ounces of rye flour, 4 ounces of rice flour, two and 1a ounces of yeast, one and one pounds of seeded raisins, one ounce of vegetable oil and one half teaspoon of cinnamon.
 This recipe, according to Do- ty, will make sixty buns, the natural sugar of the raisins furnishing the desired sweet ness.-Superior Sun.
