TASTING CANNED FRUIT
AND VEG BEFORE
HEATING is DANG EROUS
Especially HOme-Canned Foods Should
be Heated to Boiling Point Be
fore Eaten or Even Tasted
Toxins Produced are
Deadly.

Botulism, deadly disease resulting
from toxin produced by the Bacillus
botulinus, has often occurred as re-
suit of the all too common practice of
the housewife of tasting canned fruit
and vegetables before serving to see
if they are fit for use.
The toxins produced by this organ
ism are extremely virulent, and very
small. amounts have been known to
cause death.
Since high temperatures render the
poison harmless, it is obvious that
heating home-canned foods, especially
vegetable foods, such as beans, corn,
etc, will render the product safe for
human consumption, suggests w. II.
Feldman of the Colorado Agricultural
College. Under no circumstances
should these canned foods be eaten
or even tasted without first bringing
same to the boiling point.

Sound Business Maxims

The margin is very small-if you
earn three dollars and save one you
have marked the diving line.
The war cost our country ut least
wcnty billion dollars and yet that
capital can be easily replaced.
If the average family of five per
sons will save $3.50 year for two
years the deficit would be largely
wiped out.
The solvent individual is produced
by not spending money before it has
been earned and then not all of it.

Students, faculty and alumni of the
Iowa State College at Ames have un-
der way a plan for erecting ON the
campus of the college Memorial Hall
in honor of the men and women who
served in the World War A start of
S350,OO0 was made at a convo.ation
before the holidays where the above
amount was pledged by the students
and faculty who were present. The
plan, according to Miss Virginia H.
Corbett of the Colorado Agricultural
college is to make the goal 81 100000
for service and social center build
ing which will honor the dead and
serve the living for many student gen.
erations.
Every community which sent SOL
diers should be working along that
line, planning some form of memorial
in honor of the sacrifice of our men.
In smaller places it might take the
form of a memorial tablet placed in
some public building. In larger COM
munities, a park set aside planted to
trees and shrubs would serve the COM
munity and be permanent memorial
to commemorate the youths who gave
their all. Public drinking fountains,
libraries and highways have been con-
sidered in other places for this pur-
pose. In general, public sentiment
seems to favor some continuation Of
the spirit of service as more appro-
pirate memorial than monument Of
stone.
What is the plan considered in your
community?

Ready for Business

During the next few weeks the
sweet potato crop will be harvested
ard stored. The Newberry Sweet Po-r
tato, house is heady for the harvest.
To handle this crop successfully it is
essential that the farmers dig and
bring them to the potato house at the
same time or as nearly so as possible.
To this end the management has de-
cided to have the first digging about
the middle of next week.
Careful grading means successful
marketing. The best potato is graded
No. /, which is from l 3-4 to 3 1-2
inches in diameter and from four to
ten inches in length, smooth and free
from any blemish. Strings and cuts
should be used for feeding stock and
not be Grated, as cuts when stored en-
danger other grades and storage
charges exceed value Of the strings.
The harvest of each day should be in
storage or must be well protected
from the weather with the close Of the
day, otherwise cold injury (dew some
times affecting) might result.
The crates will be here Saturday,
18th. When you get your crates we
will give you definite information as
to what days to dig and how to grade
and handle. The crates will not cost
over Is cents each and the curing and
storing for the season will be 20 cents
per crate.
This two or three bales to the horse
cotton crop won't do. The potato
crop with a marketing and storing
house will help solve the problem. 1t
has been successful at other places
anl will be al Newberry if the farmers
will grow the potatoes.
II. NJ. Bryson and A. A. Cleland
will be ready to deliver the crates or
any other information Saturday, the
18th.
