formulas in having in most instances
a larger percentage of potato, in the
absence of beans and peas, and in
having various minor additions, such
as beets, celery, radishes and toma-
toes.
In making up combinations of dried
vegetables the houSekeeper should re-
member that the mixture must subse-
quently be soaked and cooked as a
unit, and only vegetables that absorb
water and cook at approximately
equal rates can be successfully com
bined in a dry condition. Such mate
rails as the root vegetables, cabbage,
celery, tomatoes and onions behave
alike both in their absorption Of water
and in cooking according to special
lists Of the United States Department
of Agriculture. Any desired com
bination can be made from them.
Dried corn and mature peas and
beans absorb water very much more
slowly and must be cooked from two
to three times as long as materials i'm
the list just given. For this reason
they cannot be mixed with other
vegetables before soaking. Instead,
they should be separated, soaked. and
partly cooked. Then the other vcge-
tables desired in the mixture, after
previous soaking, may be added and
the whole cooked until done
How to Dry Vegetables.
Practically all vegetables, after be-
ing sliced or otherwise made ready
for the drier, should be bIanched from
one to three minutes in boiling water
or steam before drying They should
then be drained and spread in a very
thin layer on the shelves of the drier

Keep the ice compartment well filed.
This is economy in the long rum DO
not cover the ice with ice blankets,

FOR FREE GOVERNMENT

"The trade union movement holds that the principle of self-government by free peoples and the principle that i'll industry and commerce the wage earners through their organization should freely and full 1y participate in determining the terms of employment, are identical. The prin- ciple that governments should only exist with the consent of the governed IS identical with the principle that the terms of employment, conditions of la bor and the rules and regulations ot employment should only exist with the consent of the employed.
 We regard 1t as essential to the Suc- cess of our movement that there be a clear and definite statement as to the attitude of this federation toward ques- tions subject to controversy and honest difference, not only because of our de- sire to promote understanding among those now affiliated to the federation, but so that those not yet affiliated may the more readily understand the char acter of our federation and the more quickly assume their proper respons1b1l- ities by seeking affiliation.
 "We, the delegates assembled i'll this congress, regard 1t as essential that 1t be established as a foundation principle that progress can be achieved only through agreement.

BRISTOL PAINTERS FIRMLY AGAINST WAGE REDUCTION
Union Votes to Stand By Action Taken at State Conference
 Here.

Bristol March 25.-One of the most important meetings ever conducted by the local Pointers Union was that held Monday night when several matters of importance were taken up, the principal one being the report of the committee that attended the meeting in New Ha- ven recently when the wage scale was taken up. The committee made it's re- port, saying that 1t was the opinion of the state meeting not to accept any re- duCtion in wages, and that 1t would in all probability be an unWise move for Bristol to ''start the ball a-rolling," be- fore other unions had taken the initial step.
 Members of the union, previous to the meeting, had stated that the local or ganization was to accept lower wage scale, and that they realized that wages
 had to come down, together with the cost of living. Several discussions were lis tened to at the meeting when 1t was pointed out that the union would be will ing to accept wage reduction, provid- ing, as one of the officers said, the cost of living came down proportionately. "As the matter now stands" said one of the officers, it looks as though our
 union will not accept a wage reduction, but will act i'll accordance with the vote l taken at the state meeting, which our committee attended. It Is the contention
 of this union that there are other organ izations which should make the first move, as they received the wage increase first. Our organization was one of the
 last to receive the increase, and should
 be one of the last to accept a reduction. If others accept the reduction, the Paint
 CTS Union will undoubtedly pass like
 vote, also"
 Some members of the union said last week that the organization was ready
 to accept the wage reduction, in order to do their bit toward lowering the cost of 1ivingof living. At their meeting,
 Monday night, however, following the
 reading of the report of the special com
 mittee, no vote on the reduction in the wage scale was decided upon.
 The Carpenters Union met last night and they, tooa mong the last to receive a wage increase, declared they should be the last to accept the reduction.
