by injunction as they threatened to
stop construction work last june for
fear some Of the money might be
wasted. It will cost nearly $50 to
pay for all that advertising and there
is less than a quarter of million
dollars worth Of new roads to be
protected anyway. 1t might have
been better to send each family in
the county postal card telling them
to keep out of the ruts and to keep
of OF the new grades in muddy times
till they get packed hard and smooth.
Gould Have Spent More
The first cost of the postal cards
would have been only $780,. and
the printing and addressing could
have been done for $50 or $40. OF
course the message that could be put
on a postal card would be short as
compared with half page in a news
paper, but it would keep the county
money from being paid to the news
papers-those unreliable sheets that
so often get reports twisted.
If we hear anything new on the
subject we will wire you.

Fowls Bought in
Market Need Washing

The skin of poultry is frequently
very dirty when bought from the
market. Fowls should not only be
washed, but scrubbed with a soft
brush and warm water in which a
teaspoon of baking soda has been
dissolved. Such treatment will pre-
vent the disagreeable and benny"
taste often noticeable in cooked
poultry.
Poultry should be drawn imme-
diately, and unless it is known to
have been killed very recently, it
should be thoroughly washed on the
inside and used soon. Poultry that
is drawn directly after killing, on
the contrary, keeps better if not
washed until used. 1t should be
hung in cold place or put into the
ice box with a piece of charcoal in
side the body. Cold storage chick
ems, under no circumstances, should
remain in warm room before cook
ing. Such poultry should be kept
at a cool temperature and cooked as
soon as possible. All cold storage
food, when brought into a warm
temperature, spells quickly. Many
cases Of illness traced to the use of
such food are merely due to care
less handling and delay in cooking.

Yanks and Their
Fathers-in-Law

1t is interesting to note the things
that ex-soldiers of the A. E. F. are
doing in France, where they married
and settled down. Some are already
on the road to wealth, using their
American experience as a ladder to
success. Some are slowing down to
the French pace in life and must be
content to get their joy in the pass
ing of the days.
Nearly 5000 A. E. F. Men Freed
Nearly 5000 American expedition
airy force men were released in
France and it is estimated a fourth
of these have settled down to work.
The others are visiting, sightseeing
or have gone home after a discour-
aging look at business prospects.
OF the 1000 or so who are hard
after French francs, according to
American business men who know
most about the new ventures, several
hundred found employment with
large concerns, chiefly American
firms preparing to do business in the
devastated regions. Another group
took various small places to pay their
way while studying. The majority of
the men, started to make good by
capitalizing American methods. Very
many of them saw what they con-
sidered defects in French life and
made ready to furnish the supply,
and if necessary create the demand.
Negro Makes Fortune
Most of them agree that easy
money is not one of the natural re-
sources of France, but few have
proved that it is. A negro made 1885,
900 francs buying and selling army
and navy supplies at Brest. His case
is vouched for by well-knOwn
American commercial executive.
= The most striking success reported
is that of ''The Fox Trot Kings of
Paris" as they term themselves,
Gerald Kiley, who drove the Chicago
Press club ambulance land Harold
Fitch of St. Paul, who was at the
wheel of one of Mrs. w. X. Wander
bits .ambulances and later went to
the front.
Kiley and Fitch, the. former said,
got their start in Paris when the
wife of an American banker in bust
ness. here pressed 500 francs on us"
when they played in three-man jazz
band at dance she gave. They or
ganized a Wilson Welcome ball at a
leading hotel when the president ar
rived in Paris and netted more than
$1,000 francs on the affair. This sue
cess, they said, they often duplicated
at 1.-THE Dixie Club" dances they or
ganized with an admission charge of
20 francs person.
Knowing that "good things" must
not be overworked, the men took
over the ice cream making equip
ment of the Y. M. C. A., which has a
capacity of 1000 gallons an hour and
late in October began wholesaling
Dixie Ice Cream" cutting the mar
ket price so to 100 per cent. They
said they invested 100000 francs in
the venture.
Some Of the most interesting of
the American business experiences in
France are those Of men who married
French girls. Three of these are
farming east of Paris, making more
money than they ever thought pos
sible in the Omitted States" their
business advisor said. One man mar
ried into a dairy shop. Another re-
turned to his trade of tailoring in the
same way. Scores Of American boys
are in business with their French
fathers-in-law.

An enumeration Of the mines and
quarries Of the United States was
made for the first time in 1910.
The Sixth Decennial Census, ta-

cover agriculture statistics, now one
of the most important parts of the
entire census.

About $50 people were engaged
