Can Necessary Fruits
Even Without Sugar

Brookings, S. d., Sept. 1.-"Alto-
gether too many people blame the
method for their failure i'm canning
when as a matter OF act Il is careless
ness in following Instructions" says
Selma Rongstad, state home demon
stration ieadcr." All homecoming
tables are based upon canning fresh.
ripe, SQUAD and firm food products.
Do not try to can old or over-ripe food
or abnormally green products.
at will be wisdom on the part OF
housekeepers to can the necessary
amount of fruits, even IL part or all
must be cannot without sugar" is the
statement issued by the United States
Department of Agriculture. The De-
partment also states that suga. will
be more plentiful when the house.
wife is ready to use the fruits next
winter as the rise in price has en-
couraged increased paintings. Since a
greater supply OF sugar than ever has
been handled in this country during
the past few months, unless enorm-
.ously increased amounts have been
consumed, the trouble must be laid to
boarding by housewives and CONNER
cial concerns.
During the past 10 years the AM
erican home has made rapid strides
in correcting the evil of living on q
continuous ration of meat, potatoes,
bread and coffee and using medicine
as a laxative, by growing large gar
dens and canning the surplus. During
the war all felt that it was their pa
t-iotic duty to can and help feed the
nation. Everyone should look at the
canning problem seriously this year az
IL is known that commercial canned
products are going to be from 20 to Is
per cent higher than last year Then
the commercial amer are not sure
that they can supply the demand. In
order then to have fruits and vegeta-
bles in the daily diet the housewife
must do more canning. IL the jars
are kept constantly filled with differ
emit products 1t simpliies the kitchen
responsibilities and saves money
through a greater portion Of the year."

Faulkton and deputies of the sheriff's
office are searching Faux county to-
day for robbers who got away with
5000 worth of jewelry from the Tur-
ner-Dodds drug store early Monday
morning
Several residents Of Faulkton insist
that the robbers escaped with their
loot in an airplane. The whirr Of an
sirplane motor was distinctly heard
over the city early Monday.
This is the first airplane robbery
known. If the suraaises of the light
sleepers of Faulkton are correct.
The men were evidently interrupted
at their work. The safe. was not mo-
Tested and jewelry was scattered all
over the floor.

Standing of Miller High School

The Miller High School is a fully
accredited High School in the state
of South Dakota. II has met all re-
quirements for accreditment. This
school may attend any College or Uni
versity in the state of South Dakota
without entrance examinations. We
ere also accredited by the North Cen
trail Association of Colleges and Secon
dairy Schools. This accreditment is a
much higher accreditment. Only tw-
enty-three schools in this state have
received this accreditment up to this
year. Others are trying to do so.
This means that the credits from this
school will be recognized by any col
lege or University in the North Cen
trail list which includes all the Col
leges and Universities of good stand
ing in the North and Central states.
We ought to be proud of the standing
Of our high school and do our utmost
to keep this standing up and make it
higher. The boys and girls of Miller
ought to appreciate the opportunity
they have of attending school and We
ought to have fewer dropping u of
school than we have had heretofore.
At present one third of our high
school pupils come from the districts
of Hand County lying outside of Mil
Ter. This leaves a much smaller num-
Ter in high school than we ought to
have from Miller. We are proud Of
the efforts that the rural people are
making in getting their boys and girls
into high school. 1t is a real effort
On their part compared with the eff
fort necessary for the parents in
Miller. We hope that every pupil fin
ishing the eighth grade here last year
will commence high school this fall.
Some pupils who stopped two or three
years ago would benefit themselves
immensely by coming back. Remem-
Der that four years of high school will
play an important part in the fifty
years of hard life and toll after high
school g is over with. Let's think
a little OF this future period before
stopping out education this early in
the game.

LEAGUE BROKEN
SAYS HARDING
Declares American Citizenship Should
BE Protected in Mexico, and
Every Other Nation

Marion, Ohio, Aug. 2S.-Pronouncing
the existing League of Nations a def
mite and irredeemable failure, Senator
w. G. Harding today proposed a new
effort to construct a world association
on the framework of The Hague trib-
unal clothed with such attributes of
the league covenant as may be found
safe and practicable.
The declaration was made in a front
sofa and Indiana republicans, covering
in detail the republican nominees po-
siticn on the nations foreign relations.
The senator replied directly to the ar
guments of his democratic opponent,
Governor J. NJ Cox, and declared the
league issue had been ~squarely Joined.
"The democratic nominee" he said,
has fatty said he is in favor Of going
in on the basis announced by the presi-
dent. | am not. That is the whole Diff
ference between us, but it is a most
vital one, because ii involves the dis
parity between a world court of justice
supplemented by a world association
for conference on the one hand and
the council of the league on the other
League Declared Broken
The league, the candidate asserted,
in his speech, had broken down at its
first test in Poland and now had
"passed beyond the possibility of res
toration." He quoted from British
statesmen to support his statement
that a revision of the covenant will be
agreeable abroad, and answered sug-
gestions that detailed specifications
were impossible in view of changing
world opinion.
Passage of a peace resolution, he
continued, would make AN actual and
effective peace without negotiation OF
a separate treaty with Germany.
Would Protect Citizens
Touching on Mexico, the republican
nominee proclaimed "a plain notice to
every government on the face of the
earth" that the United States would
submit to no wrong to its citizens in
person or property.
He also replied to charges of undue
influence by asserting that as
president he would be quite as vigilant
as he had been as a senator to pre-
vent trepass IN that branch of the
government in which he served.

TALK
BY COUNTY NURSE
First Aid Hints In Cases OF Poison,
ing

a lew weeks ago we diScuSSeu what
not to do in case of accidents. This
week we deal with a few plain hints
which will prove elfectual in meeting
such an emergency as poisoning.
Many people think that in all cases OF
poisoning the most important thing
70 do is to give an emetic, something
tc make the person vomit, but that is
a very unfortunate idea, and in some
cases it would prove fatal. To be sure
as to this matter of emetics, il the
mouth or lips are burned or stained
that is usually evidence that an acid
or strong alkali has been swallowed,
and in that case an emetic must not
be given. What we need remember
in case of an acid or alkali poisoning
is that we must first give a neutraIiz-
err. If it is an acid that is swallowed
such as salts of lemon give an alkali
such as lime water, Aromatic Spirits
Of Ammonia, Baking soda in water,
chalk powdered in water, even wall
plaster stirred into water. First get
patient rinse out mouth and then sip
mixture slowly, Any acid that has
been swallowed use either of the above
mentioned neutralizers. If an alkali
has been taken the neutralizer or
antidote is an acid, such as lemon
juice, vinegar $3.50 in water, grape
fruit or even orange juice will give
relief. AS before, first rinse out the
mouth, and then let patient drink by
sips. Follow this by letting them
drink oil such as olive oil, salad oil,
cCd liver oil, Or the oil found in good
sardines If no oil is at hand give
cream and -four beaten together OF
raw eggs beaten iii milk or water.
Remember the same principle holds if
one is over come by acid or alkali
fumes, pour the neutralizer on a cloth
and hold to the nostrils so they can
inhale. III the ~suffocating fumes were
ammonia soak a cloth with strong
vinegar, if an acid soak a cloth with
Aromatic Spirits of Ammonia. II the
mouth and lips are not stained and
you are not positive what poison, give
all emetic and insist on the person
vomiting by pushing finger back in
mouth.
Follow the emetic with draughts of
milk, raw eggs beaten in milk or wa
ter, milk and -four mixed or even oils
may be given in all poisoning except
rhosphates. Stronp tea especially
black tea ay be boiled and given in
many cases f poisoning.
In poisoning from narcotics such as
opium, morphine, c%nolordine, give an
emetic. Follow with strong black cof-
fee and keep patient awake.
If it is carbolic acid rinse the mouth
with clear alcohol, Oh any strong Ii
Quor. Mix with water $3.50 and drink
slowly. Give milk and EPSON Salts
or castoroil.
Paris Green poisoning, an emetic of
soapy water, oils 10 drink stimulate
with Aromatic spirits of Ammonia in
water, use warmth and friction to the
body.
Ptomaine poisoning from bad fish,
meats, etc, cmetics large dose of Cas-
tor oil and heat to the body.
Always speed medical aid but lose
no time in following ont the sugges-
tions mentioned.

County Nurse.

put over the winning runs.
Friday Huron opened on the local
lot for a three game series. Fridays
game looked like q victory for the
home team at the start. Miller lead
ing at the end Of the third z to 2, but

ings. Although Miller had two men
on the bags in five different innings

ing given a lift at first on Miller's two
errors of the game. Miller's n u

break the tie until in the fourteenth

box. Redfeld had a chance to win in
the thirteenth when the first man up
tripled, and the next was safe on first,

Fischer caught and by a perfect peg
caught the runner at the plate. Al
bertson struck out the next man up.
