"CARAVAN KITCHENS" TO STAY
introduced as Wartime Measure In
England, They Have Demonstrated
Their Usefulness

One OF the most successful wartime
experiments has been the caravan
kitchen, says a London Nng.) dis
patch.
Owing TO the fact that so many
mothers Ind to leave their families of
young children TO fend for themselves
while they went out to work to make
ends meet, Miss HorSborough con-
ceived the idea of catering TO the
needs OF these children by means of a
caravan kitchen.
Assisted by three or four other wom-
Ell. she paraded the poorer quarters Of
London, cooking en- route all kinds of
toothsome and nouriShing dishes. The
Riddles came running out with their
plates at the blowing OF q tin trumpet,
and were served with piping hot and
appetizing dinner In return for q
trihinS sum Of money, which had been
left with them for this purpose BY
mother.
The fame of the caravan kitchen
soon spread abroad and within q short
space or time was paying its way, 3D.
OoO dinners week being served In
one district alone.
So successful has been this travel
Ing caterer 1t Is likely the work will
be continued on larger scale, and be-
come permanent institution, instead

The MaIady Was Contagious.

Judge reports what might be called
a food lecture with variations. The
lecturer was just a little nervous
she finished her dissertation on
parSnips and turned to turnips
Now" she said, 1--WE will consider the
preparation of another common and
inexpensive vegetable. There is a
right way and a wrong way of toiling
burnups-"
She stopped, and the audience
smiled.
81 will describe the correct method
of burning toilups-"
She stopped again, and the audience
Uttered audibly.
81 mean, of course, turning boil
ups"
The audience giggled unanimously
The lecturer took a sip of water
mopped her brow and proceeded with
stern determination. Really there is
an art in the burnup of toilings-"
BY this time 1le audience was al
most hysterical and the lecturer was in
a state of panic. Ladies, ladies'
she demonstrated, you know mean
the turnup of boilinGs-"
Here a nervous little lady. unable
to stand it any longer, rose to a point
OF rescue, won't you please tell u
something about beetled picks-I mean
oittled peeks-that is-er-peekled
oitts-oh, oh, beekled pitts-pittled

When the lecturer and the little lady
were resuscitated they murmured il
unison, "Pickled tongues"

PIGS AS MACHINE GUNNERS
Shrewd Trick Played by Germans
When They Fled Before the Con-
quorino American Troops.

The crafty Germans resorted to all
sorts of tricks to check the advance of
the Yankees in the fighting just before
the armistice was signed, according to
a letter from Sergt. Sidney S. Foy, for
merly OF Detroit, Mich, now attached
to a headquarters company In classi-
fication camp in France, TO a friend in
the Michigan city:
Foy writes that pigs were numerous
during the advance and that the Ger
mans used them to help in putting
Yankees out OF action When the
Huns were forced to retreat they
would tie pig by the leg to the trig-
ger of a machine gun. When the Yanks
would charge, the pig, becoming fright.
ened, would squeal and tug to free it.
self. Every tug the pig made shot
was fired at the waves OF oncoming
American troops, and, of course, some
OF them were hit.
This was only one Of the ruses
adopted by the Germans, says Foy
and the Yankees had to use the ut.
most caution In going over the ground

Packers By-Products.

The by-products obtained In the
packing house industry may be divided
into two claSses-the edible and the
inedible. The !nedible constitute the

great variety Of substances, some Of
which have developed into enormous
Industries IN themselves, such as
leather. soap, glue and fertilizer. The
last mentioned represents the ultimate
utilization OF packing house waste
For example, In the manufacture OF
buttons, combs. knife handles and

cattle and sheep and the hoofs Of hogs
the waste resulting from the prepare

INGALLS, EUL0GY OF GRASS

In Literature.

Lying In the sunshine among the
buttercups and dsndelions Of May,
scarcely higher In intelligence than
the minute tenants Of that mimic will
dernsss. our earliest recollectiOns are
Of grass. and when the fitful fever IL
ended and the foolish wrangle of the
market and the forum Is closed, grass
heals over the scar which our descent
into the bosom OF earth has made and
the carpet OF the infant becomes the
blanket Of the dead. Grass is the for

ediction. Fields trampled with bat
tie. saturated with blood, torn with
the ruts Of cannon, grow green again
with grass, and carnage is forgotten
Streets abandoned by traffic become
Ersssgrowa like rural lanes and are

perish. flowers vanish, but grass is i'm.

hosts Of winter, II withdraws into the
impregnable fortress OF its subterrane-
an vitality and energies upon the first
solicitation Of spring. Sown by the
winds, by the wandering birds, propa-
ga'sd ny the subtle agriculture OF the
clements which are Its ministers and
servants, II softsns the rude outline OF
the world. II bears no blazonry of
bloom 10 charm the senses with fra
GRANGE or splendor. but Its homely hue
is more enthanting than the lily or the
rose. II yields no fruit in earth or
air, and yet, should its harvest fail for
a single year, famine would depopulate
the world"
This classic by John J. ingalls,. was
first printed in the Duluth Herald,
says the Kansas Magazine, when Sen
ator Ingalls, was one of its owners.

exceed 81 ton yet this company is offering it to Imperial
Valley at S11.O8 per ton.
There is nothing to prevent favored contractor
