rIeuiturs for Stored and Canned
Garden Produeta

Every housekeeper knows that by
the last Of February or first OF March
the average family Is tired Of winter
vegetables, and yet vegetables are just
as necessary In the spring diet. II not
more so. than In the diet OF any other
season. SO the clever cook uses new
recipes for the stored and canned prod
ucts Of the garden and In that way
tempts the languid spring appetites
The following recipes are recon-
mended by the experiment kitchen Of
the United States Department Of Az.

through a strainer. Return to stewpan

has consistently followed this prac.
tice. The originally improved roads
In Maryland were comparatively In
expensive, costing only what the tax
payers were willing to pay for. The
first few years the average cost was
less than $4,000 a mile. In some
cases the work entsiied considerable
grading and drainage, but In others
II amounted simply to resurfacing the
old turnpikes, which had already
been graded and drained.
Generally the roads built at that
time were .macsdam, II feet wide
and six inches thick. Soon the width
was increased to II feet. Later many
were widened still farther. some very
successfully. by adding concrete Shout
ders on each side Of the existing
macadam. This method OF improving
roads makes II possible for traffic to
continue unimpeded on the road while
the work Is going on.
The macadam roads In Maryland
have given verv good satisfaction. but
continuous care has been largely re
sponsible for their success. The roads
are constantly patrolled and no hole
Of any size Is allowed to 90 unre-
paired. Material for patching Is kept
at convenient points along the road
for the use Of the patrolman. From .
relatively small investment in an ad-
mittedly low-type road II builds up .
better one from year to year. always
conserving the bulk Of the previous
investment.

USES TIRE PUMP AND QUILL
AND SAVES cow FOR FARMER

With a first-aid veterinary kit con-
sisting Of chicken quill and an
automobile pump, one Of the county
agents of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture saved a 5000 COW
belonging to farmer in Fender
County, N. c.
This farmer had expressed an I'M
favorable opinion of farmers COOP
erative demonstration work, declar-
ing that he would rather use his
money for other purposes than in
helping to pay the county's portion
of the expense. While he was in
town he received a word that his
valuable COW was attacked with milk
fever. The county agent went home
with him and found the neighbors
using primitive methods in treating
the animal for "hollow tail" and collie.
Using the chicken quill and the
automobile pump, the county agent
pumped the cows udder full of air.
In less than two hours she was on
her feet. Some simple remedies COM
pleted the cure.
The farmer attempted to give the
county agent check for $40, which,
of course, was declined. The farmer,
however became a warm supporter
of the farm-extension work.

Benefit TO SUBURBAN LAND
One Advantage Of Read Improvement
Would BE to Open W Territory
for Hsmesteada

Another change In the use Of land
which may result from road improve
ment, especially near towns and cities.
Is to make II available for suburban
development. This might better be
termed increasing the home value Of
the land. and II will be found to sp-
ply where the land is retained for its
original uses as well as where. fol-
lowing road improvement. II is utilized
so as to yield higher. return on agri-
cultural products. The home value Of
land is one to be given consideration.

COOPERATIVE WOOL SALES
NET FARMERS $4,000 GAIN

NET FARMERS $1,000 GAIN
Cooperative marketing Of wool
through the advice Of the local county
agent Of the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture gave growers Of
Williamson County, Texas, go cents
a pound at a time when local buyers
had offered only 35 cents.
The Williamson County Sheep and
Goat Breeders Association was used
as a medium for handling the wool.
Sealed bids were first received, but,
possibly due to opposition to the co.
operative movement, no particular
advance in price was offered. The
farmers committee thanked the bid
ders and declined all offers, and prep
arations were made for a shipment
to Boston. The local price immedi-
ately went up Is cents, but the
growers remained firm and sent the
wool away. The Boston price was
25 cents in advance Of the original
local price. The total gain to the
farmers was estimated at $4,000.

HEAD OF GRAIN GROWERS TO
GIVE ADDRESS TO FARMERS =
AT COURT HOUSE NOV. s.

A very important meeting from the
farmers point of view will be held at
the Court House Redwood Falls, Sat
urday night, November at o'clock
Mr.. C. H. Gustafson, president Of the
u. S. Grain Growers Incorporated will
deliver the address, discussing the
cause and effect Of the low prices Of
grain.
President Gustafson will lay before
the farmers the whole scheme where
by his organization will put the grain
on the market at higher prices. In
addition Mr.. Gustafson, as president
Of the United States Grain Growers
Association, will be in a position to
answer any question pertaining to the
working Of the association.
"The organization Of the Grain
Growers will start in our county in the
very near. future" said N .W.Cobleigh,
president Of the Farm Bureau. Mr.
Cobleigh also stated that in view OF
the fact that the Grain Growers As
sociation had worked 50 long in the
perfection Of the organization and the
scheme Of marketing the farmers pro
duct, he was convinced that it was one
of the greatest thing ever attempted
by a farmers organization. Farmers
in this community will perhaps not
have the opportunity again of hearing
one Of the biggest men in the country
and as a result it behooves every per-
son to be present.

NEEDED TO KEEP MILLIONS
IN NEAR EAST ALIVE.

Mrs. William II. Gold Of Redwood
Falls, chairman Of the Near East Re-
lief committee for Redwood county,
and Mrs. .Bess Wilson Of Redwood
Falls, attended the state famine relief
conference in Minneapolis last week.
The conference was called by the
state committee of the Near East Re-
lief to hear the report of two Ameri-
can relief workers who have just re-
turned from $4,000 mile trip through
the famine regions Of southern Russia,
Armenia and the Holy Land.
If famine conditions such as@ those
in the Near East prevailed in Mime
sofa, slow starvation would claim more
victims than the whole population Of
Redwood county and 20 counties OF
equal size, the workers said.
"At least 400, 900 men and women
will die Of hunger this winter in spite
of all we can do = said DR.. w. p
Doughty, one Of the Americans just
back from Asia Minor. We cannot
hope to do more than save the chill
dren. And unless the grain we have
asked American farmers to give, ar
rives in time, tens Of thousands Of
orphan boys and girls also must die

donate 541 bushels Of wheat and A. ,99s
bushels Of corn. A solicitation Of
funds will also be made Throughout

that the technical term for the decease
is Heamerhagic Septicaemia. Other
herds afflicted have also been vaccin-

School Officers
Meet at WabaSso
BIG ATTENDANCE SHOWS IN
TEREsT IN REDWOOD COUNTY
SCHOOL WORK.

How to economic in the administers
tion of the educational system Of Red
wood County without decreasing the
efficiency Of that system was the sub
ject chiefly claiming the attention of
the largely attended County School
officers meeting held in the city hall
at Wabassso last Friday. Related
subjects were discussed by the speak
ers of the day, who were led by Geo.
Selke, head Of the Rural School branch
OF the State Educational Department.
The meeting was the best attended Of
any meeting of this kind for the past
several years, about four hundred per
sons gathering for the afternoon ses-
sion. Miss Fern Kennedy, superin-
tendent Of Redwood County schools,
presided.
During the morning session Mr..
Selke met with the officers and super
|intendents Of the graded and semi
graded schools OF the County, giving
them some helpful information on the
state aid which is due schools Of this
class. While this section was in ses-
sion, the officers of the rural schools
listened to Miss Miller, Redwood
County School Nurse who talked on
school sanitation and to Mrs. L. T.
Andrew, an officer of District AZ who
gave some helpful suggestions on the
matter Of school attendance.
The afternoon session was given
over to series of talks by Mr.. Selke
who spoke at length on state aid for
rural schools and on the necessity of
keeping the schools up to their pre-
sent high standard in spite Of the fin
ancial situation; by B. F. Shumaker
who spoke briefly on Child Welfare
work, asking the assistance Of the of
ficers in this field which is compari-
lively new to the County, by Miss Mil
Ter who spoke on the Health Crusade
and other related topics of health
work; by Frank Sheffield of District
25, who Sspoke on various ways of
making the schools more attractive
and efficient without adding to the ex-
pense of operation. All the talks
were informative as well as interest
ing and merited the careful attention
they received.
Musical numbers were given by
Mrs. Fixen of Wabasso, who sang a
solo and also gave piano solo and by
the glee club and the orchestra Of the
Wabassso High School, Mrs. Fixen
also acted as accompanist for the
songs which were sung by the assem-
bly, at intervals during both the morn
ing and afternoon sessions.
The entire meeting was indicative
of keen and lively interest in the af-
fairs of the county schools and this
interest is one of the most hopeful Of
the signs of progress in school work.
The carefully arranged and helpful
program was. credit both to Miss
Kennedy who had planned the meeting
and to the speakers who gave such
helpful talks on their individual sub
iects,
