Home canning--Of utmost impor-
lance during the war-will be just as
important this year. according to pres
ent indications as they are viewed by
the United States department of agri-
culture. The shortage of labor on the
farms makes 1t necessary for the can
neries to pay high prices for the COM
modities that will be canned later in
the season. Labor in the canning fac
tories is expensive and difficult to OBJ
tain. Everything, from cans to cart
age costs, has Increased in price, and
transportation Ii slow and more ex-
pensive than n was in war times. All
this increase must be paid by the ul-
innate consumer; and there is not
even assurance that there will be
enough canned products to go around.
The solution is home canning.
Can Without Sugar.
That sugar Is higher in price than
1t has been hitherto is advanced by
some as reason for canning either
less fruit or nothing but vegetables
but unless one intends to give up
sweets altogether there seems no good
reason for not using canned fruit on

they cannot do so until they have help
In the way Of food and materials, ac-
cording to Otto ]. Marum, the German
agent for an American Leather COM
pany in Milwaukee, who recently ar

German workman Is SO underfed that
he cannot possibly do a proper days
work, and that the high prices for all
the necessities there, combined with
the pay of the lnborer with the mark
at It's present low rate of value, is
causing hardships and great suffering
among the working classes that can
scarcely be realized.
'sThe visitors who come to Germany,
put up at the best hotels where there
Is plenty of good food and make a
superficial inspection of some Of the
more accessible districts, cannot judge
of the lack of food throughout the
country" said Mr.. Marum. "Deformed
children are seen everywhere where
the working people live. but one fails
to take into consideration that their

that they will always bear the marks
Of what they have suffered In the last

ILLINOIS COURT UPHOLDS NEWS,
PAPER NEWS RIGHTS

The right of newspapers to pub
lish any testimony given in court
hearings, whether it subsequently
proves to have been true or untrue,
was established in a ruling in Chi
cago by Circuit Judge Oscar M.
Torrison.
His instructions to jury in a
suit for damages by Henry J. Earn
est against the Chicago Tribune
gave official sanction to the publish
ing of any testimony in open court.
"A newspaper has a legal right to
publish what transpires in a judicial
proceeding, even though such publ
cation may injure a private citizen,
because it is to the interest of the
public that proceedings in court be
open and the public be Informed OF
them" Judge Torrison ruled.
lit is not necessary that the news
paper publish every word spoken
it may publish a summary if thu
summary is fair and impartial ac-
count of what transpires in court
and is published without malice"

WHY COLDS ARE DANGEROUS.

You are often told to beware OF
cold'' but why? We vii tell you:
Every cold weakens the lungs, low
ers the vitality and paves the way
for the more serious diseases. Peo-
nile who contract pneumonia first
take cold. The longer cold hangs
on. the greater the danger. especially
from the germ diseases. as a cold
prepares the system for the reception
and development of the germs Oh
consumption, diphtheria, scarlet
fever and whOoping cough. the
quicker you get rid OF your colo'
the less the danger Of contracting

lain's Cough Remedy has a great
reputation as a cure for colds and
