SSDCI WINTER FOOD “F. 0. B.”—THE PANTRY SHELF _The production of food “F. 0. B. the Kitchen Door” was the impulse glven the nation by the spring campaign of the National Emergency Food Garden ‘commission. To establish a winter supply “F. O. B.” the Pantry Shelf” is now the aim of the commission. Our nation-wide survey has shown us that more than two million home gardens have been planted and cultivated by the American people this year. By the planting of gardens where none grew before the coun- try’s food supply will be increased to the extent of $250,000,000 or more. The patriotic duty of every American demands the conservation of this tremendous output of foodstuffs. That the vegetables cannot be eaten as they mature is obvious. Even a small garden will produce more vegetables than the ordinary family can consume during the growing season. With heavily increased planting area this season’s production will create a vast surplus and in the wartime food crisis this surplus must not be allowed to go to waste. Praventlon of the waste that threatens calls for the canning of all food that can be canned or the drying of all food that can be dried. By this plan only is it possible for America to enjoy the year’s enhanced fruitfulness of her soil. In no other way may the army of home garden- ers reap the full benefit of their labors. The war has brought about a food situation hitherto unparalleled. The entire world looks to America for solution of the problems arising from this condition. Unless our food supply is used wisely and well the armies and domestic population of our European Allies will suffer famine in its most aggravated form. If the war for world democracy is to be won its battles must be fought by soldiers abundantly nourished. We must feed them. The importance of canning and drying, therefore, was never so vital. These things can be done in every household. To neglect this duty is unpatriotic, un-American and unforgivable. . As a part of its contribution to America at war this commission has prepared two booklets for distribution to the families of America. One of these deals with home canning. The other is devoted to home drying, with suggestions for home pickling and the home storage of vegetables in their natural state. Both booklets have distinct value. The expert ad- vice given in them makes possible successful food saving in every home. FOOD DRYING IS EASY Why should any food products be wasted? What excuse will Am- erica have to offer the world if she allows her Allies to suffer for lack of food? Now is the time to overcome the spirit of waste. The war makes it imperative that the national abundance of this year’s two mil- lion food gardens should not merely supply the needs of the summer but the needs of the winter as well. To this end the National Emergency Food Garden commission calls every American to the flag of Food Drying. To save vegetables and fruits for winter uses is no more trouble than to prepare them for imme- diate consumption. The importance and ease of drying have been overlooked by the mod- ern household. Our grandmothers treated dried vegetables and fruits as an indispensible feature of their winter stores. If they did this, with little or no help from scientific research, how much more does the devel- opment of modern methods make it the duty of the present generation to do the same and do it on a scale never before approached. The drying of vegetables and fruits may be done with ordinary house- hold utensils, with driers easily made in every home or with apparatus bought at low cost. It may be done in the sum, in the kitchen stove or outdoors. Groups of families may club together and buy equipment at small individual cost to dry vegetables and fruits on a larger scale. No matter how it is done, do it. FOOD FOR CONGRESSIONAL THOUGHT The brilliant success of the Liberty Loan should cause congress to ponder well the temper of the American people as to ways and means for prosecuting the war. It is significant that while thousands of men in the humbler walks of life were making sacrifices to subscribe to the loan, these same men and other thousands were at the same time protesting to the utmost against the action of congress in the matter of war taxation. No graver mistake could be made than to saddle upon the people just at this time an onerous scheme of taxation. The country is now in the full swing of a campaign of industry and production that is going to re- quire the use of every dollar that every industry can muster. But while this is true, there are billions not actively employed that can be pro- cured by the sale of bonds. The bond issue is the fair and equitable plan of financing the war. It affords the subscriber the opportunity to do his bit without feeling that his business is being cramped and hindered by an oppressive burden of taxes, just at the time when he needs most all of the resources at his com- mand. The people of this generation must pay heavily enough, in cash and blood. Those of the coming generation should assume their share. Bond issues will insure a fair and equal distribution of the expenses of the war. There is no safer or saner method.

Three Western mining men, joint owners of a great mining property, conceive the curious idea that there must be an heir to the mine which is called ‘“The Hoorah.” They are all bachelors and the idea of marriage appeals to none of them. Lots are cast and the youngest one is chosen to marry. It is an inter- esting story with Thos. Meighan and Anita King in the leading roles. Van and Hazen, the latter being better known as ‘“‘Dot” Hazen of this city, who have toured the states from coast to coast, booked by the West- ern Vaudeville company, will be an added feature at the Grand, intro- ducing the latest songs and instru- mental music.
