JEWISH PEOPLE TO
HOLD CONVENTION
WILL CELEBRATE RECOVERY OF
A HOME FOR JEWS IN PAL
ASTINE NEXT WEEK

CHICAGO.-Because of the in
pending realization of the age-long
dream of the Jews of the world. a
homeland in Palestine, the comirg
Zionist convention here, which will be-
! gin September IL, is attracting world
wide attention. Some of the foremost
members of the race will attend, in
| GLIDING Justice Brandeis of the United
States Supreme Court; DR.. Chaym
Weitzman of London, England, a
member of the Palestine commission;
Judge Julian Mack of the United
States circuit court, president of the
Zionist organization, and may others.
/ Features of the convention will be
a mass meeting at the Auditorium
theatre where all the sessions of the
convention will be held; a "restora-
ton parade" through the streets of
Chicago in which it is estimated
more than 10000 Zionists will par
ticipate; a great ball at the First
Regiment armory, and meetings
throughout the city to be addressed
by prominent delegates.
Plans for the "recrudescence of dis
t~inctive Hebrew culture in it's cradle,
Palestine" are to be outlined, it is
announced. These include provisions
for centers of such culture, a Jewish
university and school system; a great
printing establishment designed to lie
the center of the worlds Hebrew lit
erary effort, and other cultural
agencies By these means it is hoped
to stimulate Jewish culture to again
exert a wide and beneficial influence
and bring about another golden age
Of Jewish literary and artistic influ-
ence.
On the more practical side, the con-
v%ention will take up the questions of
financing the new state, arranging for
it's agricultural and industrial develop
ment and the provision of homes for
Jewish refugees and the oppressed
from many lands.
A feature of the parade will be a
detachment of the Jewish Legion
fought for the restoration of the
Jewish homeland in the Legion of
David, which formed a part of Gen
eral Allenby's conquering army.

surfaced roads from an unprofessional
point of view, is that there are Tut
two kinds of surfacing, which it pays
to use. The single course concrete
road with expansion joints, while
costly, is l am sure, the best road
that can be built, especially in this
northwestern country l am satisfied
that the time will come in the near
future when all the main travelled
roads between business centers will
have to be built with this material,
laid in this manner. My conclusion is
that the only other surface material
which pays, is sand and gravel. This
is the cheapest material to use end
the easiest to maintain l think public
discussion should be aroused, and
brought to bear upon our

MOSCOW, ldahO.
September A, 1919.
Editor Star-Mirror:-The writer has
just returned from a six hundred mile
trip through Washington, by car, and
over several kinds Of surfaced roads.
| wish to call the attention of your
readers to the service given by the
various kinds Of surface, with the his
tory of which am somewhat familiar.
The macadam roads between Pullman
and Rosalia, Washington, have been
laid but a few years at costs from
$4,000 to $4,000 per mile. They are
already breaking up, and it is estimat-
ed that it will cost from now on $500
per mile per year to keep them in re-
pair. The asphaltum surfaces near
Rosalia have been laid for several
years as those for a few miles west
of Spokane. They are still ~serviceable
but are getting rough and cost now
about $500 per mile per year to keep

them from going to pieces. There is
a stretch of about five miles of single
course concrete surfaced road west of
Spokane, laid with expansion joints.
This has been laid, think, about four
years, and | found but one crack in
the entire length. There may be more
but that is the only one I saw. I do
not know what that road cost, hut

per mile. | also passed over several
miles of gravel and sand road all of
which was in fair shape. The conclus-
ion I have reached personally, from
this short trip and from the expert

about 5000 miles of road in the past
two years and from what study I
have been able to give the matter of

gravel, upon .all roads until the time
comes when we can afford to build the
concrete roads.
l would like to ask the engineering
department of the university, and the
engineers in charge of the road work
to give in your paper, the estimated
costs of construction and maintaineEce
per mile of the various surfaces, so
that intelligent discussion by the tax
payers may be had on the subject, and
urge the highway commissioners to
wait the matter of letting contracts
for surfacing until this matter may
be properly digested by the public,
and some recommendatory action
taken.

BAKED BEANS

A favorite and standard recipe for
baing beans is the following: Soak
the beans over night, then rinse and
boil them until the skins crack when
blown upon but the beans are not
quite soft. Use one-half pound of
salt pork to one quart of beans. Cut
the pork nearly thru the rind and
before boiling the beans. 1
boiling, pour into the bean pot
sert the pork, the cut rind being
with the top of the beans. AL
pint of the water used for boilN
having first mixed with the waite
teaspoon of salt and two tablespR
of molasses. The water should
about to the surface of the contenls.
Bake six to eight hours, adding more
water when needed to prevent the
top drying or burning. Bans, when
done, should be thoroly softened, but
not mushy, and should retain their
shape.

CITY AND COUNTRY MEAT
CONSUMPTION COMPARED

That the farmers are the chief
pork and poultry consumers, when .
comparison is made on a per capita
basis, while the city dweliers eat a
greater proportion of beef, veal and
mutton is shown by the estimates of
the per. capita consumption of each
kind of meat and poultry by the
urban. and rural population, which
reau of Crop Estimates. This is tbe
first adequate information concern
ing the meat consumption of various
sections of the country ad of the citv
and country population that has ever
been obained.
The total meat consumption per
capita is 8 per cent greater in the
country. than in the city, and excess
in varying degrees is found in every
one OF the customary geographic
divisions. Beef consumption is near
lly two-thirds greater in the city than
in the country.

DO YOU KNOW THE CHEAP
AND NUTRITIOUS BEAN?

Beans, tho higher in price than
they were several years ago, are still
among the cheaper foods that can be
bought today. They are one of the
cheapest sources of protein, which is
also found in meat and eggs, and
may be used to help supply this valu-
able food constituent in the diet, ac-
cording to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture specialists. They
are known chiefly as a meat substitu-
tie dish. A cup of baked beans, in
which third of cup of dried beans
are used, furnishes as much protein
as quarter of pound of sirloin
steak. Obviously the third of cup
of dried beans is much the cheaper to
purchase. A pound of beef, as pur-
chased, usually has soc refuse or
waste material in the form of skin,
bone, and gristle, while pound of
beans has practically no refuse. From
this standpoint, therefore as well as
the difference in price, the house
wife who finds her food allowance
growing low will do will to use beans
often in place of meat.
There is little difference of food
value among the many common vari-
cites of beans, with the exception of
the soy bean, which is richer in pro-
tein and in fat than the ordinary
beans. All legumes should be thoro-
ly cooked. Long cooking at moder-
ate heat is best.
The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1919-11-26
BAKED BEAN CRooUETTS

Cup baked bean pulp; teaspoon
onion juice; 2 tablespoons flour; l
tablespoon fat; u cup milk; u tea
spoon salt; 1-8 teaspoon pepper.
Melt the fat, stir in the flour, salt
and pepper and mix with the cold
milk. Cook until thick and smooth,
stirring constantly. Combine this
with the beans to which the onion
juice has been added Let stand for
two or three hours; then shape as for
croquettes. Roll in bread crumbs.
then in bread crumbs again. Place
thehm in deep fat and cook until
nicely Drowned.

DAVIS HOSPITAL HAS SAVED MANY LIVES FOR POOR 
Fhilanthropic Works of In stitution Means Much
 To Community.
(By Tom BlodgetD

\Dy OIIi DiOu6CCIJ
 One of the most wonderful cures and most interesting cases that has ever been in the hospital was the case of little Grace Tiff, who swal- lowed concentrated lye, which closed up her throat
 When brought to the hospital she was a skeleton and too weak to stand, not having been. nourished in six weeks. Her physicians operated and fed her through. the stomach, and she began to gain at once. She was ill the hospital nearly five months and was plump and healthy looking when taken to the special ist in Chicago. Our doctors did won- ders with her case. She could drink a glass of milk when she left by sip ping it slowly, but was still fed through the stomach. r'
 She was an unusually winning child, the pet of the hospital force. The county paid $10.00 a week for her. but she had nice room and special care for no extra charge. Baby Ernest Clarence Hamilton, whose mother, MT. s. c. Alexander had brought up from Swan Lake on a special train. her life being thus saved, was in the hospital nearly nine weeks as a county patient, hav- ing room and special care. Mir. and Mrs. Alexander then took him to their home for some weeks He was then cared for by the hospital for week, with no charge, when friends took him home The hos pital has saved many baby Hves- txN I,0 ,{,l1 blessed.
 We must not forget in the happy busy rush. ct life, while we are in good health and playing the game of life as fast as we can, that the time may come when we will be very glad, indeed, to have expert atten- tion in case of illness or accident. The Davis hospital belongs to the citizens of Pine Bluff and it has the good will and support of the entire medical profession and is a conlpet- ent training home for nurses. which is always necessary in the rapidly growing city the size of Pine Bluff.
 Let there be no misunderstanding of the fact that the kind women who are serving as officers of the Hospi tai Association receiveing any mon- ey for their services in the way of salaries, it would cost several thous- and dollars year more to maintain the Hospital, if all the work done by these good women was paid for on a reasonable salary basis. All. dona- tions. and moneys collected are ac- counted for and spent entirely for hospital purposes. l do not think anyone would be, unkind enough to [ dispute this fact and should they do so my middle name is Missouri" and I am ready to show them that the statement l have made is correct. As patriotic citizen of the com munity believe the time has come for the public at large to appreciate the sacrifices of the good women who have done all the hard work all these years and lift the burden fromthcir shoulders, and when the good peo-- pie of the community are ready to put their shoulders to the wheel, l will be on the job to do my part when the word is given to "go." ~
