COLUMBIA ITS'., California Women on Farms Successfully Execute Work Formerly Left to Their Men "farmFour hundred and sixty-fiv- e erettes" were sent out from the southern California branch of the woman's land service at Los Angeles from May 1 to July 17, last, to aid California ranchers in their efforts to increase the country's food supply. Nearly all of these have remained in the service, and as proof that these young women are capably filling the places of men called into the army or other activities connected with the war, it was pointed out at the headquarters of the service that many of their requests for help came from ranches near those to which units had previously been sent. Volunteers in the woman's land army sent out from Los Angeles include teachers, stenographers, saleswomen, waitresses and school girls. Most of them have been employed in gathering and preparing for market deciduous fruits. Activities of others have included driving tractors, dairying, planting tomatoes, harvesting various crops and making hay. The dairy industry has taken large dairies near Los Angeles, women having largely replaced men as milkers. Of the first units sent to the dairies only a few of the young women had milked before, and most of them were unaware that there is a "wrong" as well as a "right" side to a cow until they had .been kicked over by. outraged animals. Care should be taken to remove all breeding stock from the birds selected for market, as it is not desirable that those to be kept over should become too fat American Medal of Honor Is the Hardest to Gain; The Most Rarely Awarded Naval and military men of America that their medal of honor, the equivalent to Britain's Victoria Cross, is the hardest to gain, the most rarely awarded, and therefore the most precious and least known of all such decorations throughout the world. When a mau is entitled to wear an inconspicuous bronze star pendant from a blue ribbon on which are 13 white stars, it is certain that he has performed a deed of almost superhuman fearlessness. The Medal of Honor Is a star with a medallion in the center bearing the head of Minerva and around it "United States of America" in relief. On each ray of the star is an oak leaf, and the points themselves are trefoil-shapeA laurel wreath in green enamel encircles the whole, and this wreath is surmounted by the word "Valor," which in turn is surmounted by an eagle that attaches the decoration to Its ribbon.

Freight Co., Votmg &. Hutchison, WAR3NEWS. The first all American army led by Gen. John J. Pershing has2 won a decisive victory in the St. Mihiel salient, wiping out this salient entirely. Pershing's army is pushing on toward the great ,fortified city of Metz, which is the capital of Loraine, a German province, which the Germans took away jfrbm France in 1871. The Americans in their drive in the St. Mihiel salient have probably trapped between and 60,000 Germans. The Hav&a Agency reports that the Germans had in this sector between 90,000 and 100,000 men, and that they escaped from the "trap" at the rate of 1,000 an hour. This would account fo 36,000 making their getaway an I lanving from 54,000 to 64,000 in the pocket made by the advance of the Americans. Edward L. James, in his account of "the battle, mentions that behind .the American lines were a number of the enemy, in fact that the advance had been so rapid that much of the ground they have traversed was almost unexplored, paradoxical as that may seem. The capture of the prisoners" and the dash of the Americans is vividly told in this story. London, Spt. 13, p. m. (by A. P.) Twelve thousand prisoners have been taken by the Americans in their offensive at St Mihiel. The entire salient now has been captured. Paris, Sept. 13, 1:05 p. m. (by A.

Dept. of Mines The United States government wants The feline and canine creatures have come Into their own, observes a Baltimore correspondent. They are being taken in large numbers all over the country. Just what use is being made of- them is not known, though some of the cats are being used for experimental work in the government laboratories. The municipal dog shelter In Baltimore is furnishing, on an average, 75 dogs a week, and an effort is being made to secure as many cats. All dogs at the dog shelter on Covington street were requisitioned by the bureau of mines at Washington six. weeks ago when 112 dogs were taken. Since then all that have been collected in the city have been turned over to the government agents. The bureau of mines In asking for them asserted that they would pay all expenses of shipping, which greatly lessens the burden here as the dogs do not have to be killed as heretofore. Licensed dogs which are picked up are held for 15 days before being sent away, but strays are shipped as soon as received. Sick or maimed animals are not wanted and they are killed. Before the government asked for these animals, only dogs were taken by the "dogs catchers" throughout Bal timore. Now, however, the felines are more desired by the government than are the dogs. Kittens are not desired but especially are the nice fat tabbies wanted. So if 'any housewife desires to be really patriotic all she has to do is to put kitty In a sack and call the "dog catcher." dogs and cats. - Automobile Line.

By the U. S. Food Food Administration Urges Test for Wheat Waste; Tells How to Rectify Operation A Administration Sugar is a food as well as a flavor. One of the simple food lessons the itJnlted States food administration has 'driven home is "Food Is Fuel forFlght-.ers.- " Sugar is one of the conspicuous fuel foods. Its great advantage is that !lt is quickly burning, and gives its energy to the body more rapidly than other kinds. The commercial granulated sugar we buy at the store Is "not the only sugar ion the shelf." Some of these other sugars have popular names which denote their origin, such as grape sugar, ifroit sugar, milk sugar and malt sugar. 3CheIr technical names are, in order, glucose or dextrose ; fructose ; lactose ; maltose. The beet sugar or cane sugar that we buy from the grocer is also an "ose." It is called "sucrose." The department of agriculture tells lis that while the canes and the sugar "beet are the only commercially important sources of sucrose, this form of sugar is also found in the stems and roots of sorghum and cornstalks; In the carrot, turnip and sweet pota- to; in the sap of almost all sweet fruits, and In the nectar of flowers. JUST BE GLAD "When a sucrose, or ordinary is taken into the body and goes through the process of digestion, it is changed into glucose and fructose. Oh heart of mine, we shouldn't bo!

So forgetting all the sorrow su-;ga- the date palm and sugar maple; in r, some trees, such as 'grain growers is the food administration's official test for clean threshing, says Indianapolis News. By this rule any farmer can test the work of the threshing machine he has hired. The test is made by directing the straw blower against a blanket, sheet or canvas during the time the weighing device trips five times, recording two and one-habushels. If more than one pint of wheat is winnowed from the straw on the canvas, bad work is indicated. One and one-hapints indicates a loss of 1 per cent. If more than three pints is found which means a 2 per cent loss reasonable time should be given to correct the bad operation, and a second test should be made. If improvement is not obtained, steps should be taken through the county threshing committee to discontinue operations until the avoidable waste is corrected. Most threshing committees have formulated detailed rules for the guidance of threshing crews in effectively stopping waste of grain. But more effective than the rules and regulations, the food administration believes, has been the eagerness with which farmers and threshermen have accepted their harvest-tim- e responsibility and the diligence with which they are now stopping every source of grain waste. lf matter of unusual importance to List of Foods Which the U. S. Food Administrator Advises Everybody to Eat This is a list of "protective foods:" Brussels sprouts. Cabbage. Cauliflower. Celery. ' i Milk. Onions. Spinach. Swiss chard.

' I .food administration teat advises yon to It Is not unlikely that one of the first great undertakings after the war will be the raising of the Lusitania, notes New York World. The vessel carried a huge treasure to the bottom of the sea. Its value is estimated at of which $2,000,000 is in gold and silver, brass and copper; a like amount in jewelry and other personal valuables; $5,000,000 in negotiable and unregistered securities in the ship's vault, and a cargo valued at Much of the latter Is believed to be uninjured. 'The great ship lies on the shifting sands at the bottom of St. George's channel, in 270 feet of water. Divers and pontoons cannot operate at this depth, so an entirely new type of salvage ship has been designed by a marine engineer, Carl J. LindOjiist. At the surface It will be only about thirty feet in length and half that in width, but sweeping downward is a hull which may be extended to a length of 300 feet, and which is mounted On big wheels, resting upon the bed of the sea. Near the bottom Is a large searchlight, capable of illuminating the water for a distance of thirty feet or more, and by means of this the helms man, far below the surface, will direct the operation of a hollow, flexible steel rod. When the sunken ship is located, a powerful stream of water will be forced through the rod, to clear away the sand which has drifted high around the lost craft. Four enoimous perpendicular pontoons of hollow steel will then be eunk, two on each side of the ship, and to them will be attached huge cables, passing under the sunken hull. When all is in readiness the vessel may be lifted to the surface. There the" gaping wound in her side can be repaired and the ship floated into port This is but an outline of a most ingenious plan, one single feature being the hinged bases of the pontoons, which permit them to sway back and forth in stormy weather without releasing their burdens. Nor will their usefulness end with the raising of the Lusitania. The ocean bed off the west coast of Europe is dotted with rich prizes. Near Havre, in 150 feet of water, rests the Parthenon, with a $7,000,000 cargo; the Healdton, an American ship, carried $3,000,000 worth of goods to the bottom off the Dutch coast, while but ten miles from the Lusitania the Arabic took her fatal plunge. $14,-000,0- Address, W.

This is a distinct innovation in the army medical work, for the subjects of mental hygiene and of mental and nervous diseases in general, as occurring among soldiers in war time, were for many reasons either slightly treated or neglected altogether." :: :: :: 9 S The bigot is like the pupil of the eye the more light you put upon it the more it will contract.
