Undo Ham has I lis shipyards in full operation and It others partly completed. Ilerlln papers please SOMETIMES NON-ESSENTIAL. A LOCAL Iowa exemption board recently ruled thai newspapers were, non-esential 'industries, and that, newspapermen must get into some essential work pr join the army. . , The war department has already tided that newspapers are essential industries, serving a useful and necessary purpose in the life of the nation. They are- especially nec essary in war time, when the people tit home want news of their, boys at the. front. They are necessary to tho gov ernment, perhaps more so,.1han most other industries, for it is only through the newspapers that the government can speak to the people, secure their co-operation, appeal for money needed to win the war and combat German propa ganda. ' .At the same .time, .there are too many newspapers pub lished for war, times, too much paper needlessly consumed in ii period of world paper shortage, too much labor wasted ill needless duplication of effort that could be beneficially diverted towards winning the war. No newspaperman should be exciiseil from army duty because of his occupation and we know of no appeal to evade service, except in the case of one publisher of many large papers. , Newspapermen have cheerfully obeyed the call to the eplowwhvn it came, and frequently before. From the Medford papers, fourteen employes are. now in the army or navy . and every newspaper lias a compara tively large roll of honor. And somehow- or other, the news papers manage to appear on tiine. Many newspapers have patriotically suspended for the war period. Of here which really have no excuse for exist ence save making a meagre living for their owners, should do likewise for their publishers can serve their country better and at the same time financially profit more in the vital war industries if too old to fight. The only excuse for publishing a newspaper in these times is to print the news a-nd support, the government in its efforts to win the war and if it doesn't do this, it Is certainly. a non-essential industrv. WHY THEY'RE KirKIEGtaSClKBRAUCII in Land KRIKflK" it's a manual found on captured German officers and, translated, means "Military Usage in Land "Warfare." In this manual of Prussian militarism is much effort to jus tify "fright fulness," but the gospel of the thing is summed up hi these words: "Any wrong, however great it may be, that the war demands is allowed." This has become a principle, with the German auto cracy,' with the German army, with the German people. Jt has been preached into, taught into, legislated into Ger many for fifty years past. What difference docs it make who started the war and why ? "What difference does it make what territory or trade advantages Germany is after? Why count the'eost of putting down such a horrible policy?" Why think of peace on any other terms than the complete extinction of Germany's martial power? As well consent to compro mise with hell. There must be 'no Krupp works. There must be no German army or navy. There must be a Gerinanv strip lied of all power to do wrong. It is for this that the' armies of the civilized nations must fight, 'and, the next time that some element, such as the socialists of Germauv, for in stance, demand a statement of war aims, we hope to see some great leader of a nation stand forth to state plainlv tmoMnJdyjKhat such is the aim, caMing a spade a spittle.

HO,tV TO DRY PRUNES It must bo remembered that while, all prunes are piums, by no moans all plums are prunes, as the term "prune" is used to designate such plums as can be dried without re moval of the stones. There are rela tively few varieties with which this is possible tho Fellenburg, or Italian; tho Prune d'Ageu, or French or Pe tite prune as it Is variously called; the Imperial; the Hungarian; the Golden Drop; and tho Silver prune are practically tho only varieties in which fermentation around tho stono docs not occur when tho fruits are dried entire, and tho cultivation of these varieties Is practically confined tu California and tho Pacific north west. The method here given for drying prunes Is 'applicable only to the Just named varieties, and other plums should be dried by tho use or tho method for plums which follows. Prunes Intended for drying should be allowed to become fully ripe In order that they may develop the max imum sugar content, wnii.ii is ob tained only when the fruit is allowed to fall from the trees. Such fully ripened fruits should bo gathered Into crates or boxes holding not more than a bushel, preferably less than this, and' should ho prepared for dry ing within a few hours after they arc picked, as fully ripe fruit crushes and ferments whon allowed to stand in large containers. .Make up a dipping solution by dis solving 1 pound of concentrated lye In JO gallons of water. Place this in an enemoled or well-galvanized ves sel and bring it to vigorous boiling. As a dipping vessel, used a colander, an old tin bucket which has had tho sides punched full of holes, or a wlio basket. Place the fruit in this, lower It Into tho boiling lye, move from side to sido to bring the lye immedi ately into contact with all tho fruit, roniovo and allow to druin for a mo ment, then plunge tho basket Into clean, cold water and wash thoroly lo remove adhering lye. The exact time required for lye dipping varies with tlio degree of ripeness as well as wllh variety, but will be ;i'li lo II sec onds. Hipping is iifnpurly done when Iho skin shows very fine cracks or "checks" over tho surface, particu larly at the stem end; these checks permit the escape of water vapor but do not iilluw liquid Julco to escape. Hipping must not bo continued until tho skin begins Id peel off or ihe fruit will drip badly in drying. As soon as tho trail Is thoroly freed from lye by rinsing 11 should be spread In a single layer on trays and at onto placed in tho drier. The temperaluro al the outset of drying should not be more than 1 III degrees anil It will bo better not lu allow il to exceed lllti until ihe fruit has lost enough water to begin wrinkling, after which It may gradually bo in creased, but it should not bo allowed lo excoed 17.1 degrees at any time. The fruit Is sufficiently dry when it has an elastic, rubber-liko feel, but no longer yields moistiiro when fruits aro lorn across and pressed between Iho fingers. After-cure Ihe fruit by pouring 11 leosely in a large, clean wooden or postcboard box. colored with muslin to admit air while excluding Insects, mixing each lot ns it comes from the drier wllh the fruit already in the box, and stir the whole mass thoroly once dally for len days or two weeks, after which It may be stored. Commercial dried prunes owo the black, glossy character of the skin to a socallcd "pruccs.-ing" applied just prior to pinking. This consists ol nothing more ihiui a brlet dip Into boiling salt water, dilute glycerin so lution, or sugar solution, glycerin be. 1ng per Imps most widely used. To make II, place one-half pint of glyc ol In in two gallons of water, bring to NDAY AND MONDAY AND PLUMS. a vigorous boll, and dip Uie dry fruit Into it for one to one and one-half minutes, moving the basket about so j that the fruit Is washed by the solu tion. Then remove, spread out In the air. ahd allow1 to dry before packing. This treatment cleans the fruit, de stroys or removes insect eggs, and gives the skin a glossy, elastic look aid feel which Increases their attrac tiveness. ' Practically all varieties of cultivat ed plums, as well as the various wild plums, can be converted into very acceptablo dried products by gather ing the fruit when well ripened but before it has besnme soft, washing, cutting tho fruit Into halves, remov ing tho stones, and traying the frultfe In a single layer with the stone env lties uppermost, in order Hint tho syrup juice which escapes into tho cup when tho fruit is heated may not bo lost. Start tho drying at M de grees and gradually increase it as the fruit becomes wrinkled and leathery. mushing at 17.. as a maximum. De termine when tho fruit is sufficiently dry as direcled for prunes, and aflor cure in the same way prior to storing. This method of treatment will pro duce rather ibu k-colored dry pro ducts, as considerable discoloration ; duo to the oxidation of tannin and other substances present in tho flesh occurs during drying. It Is not ad visable lo ni tempt to prevent this by blanching with steam, as such treat ment, if continued long enough to effectively prevent darkening, causes a rather serious loss of juice. As the dark color In no sense detracts from thu flavor or rood-value of tho pro duct It is not really objectionable. When arier-curir.g is completed, return tho fruit lo the trays of the drier or place it in bread pans in the open of tho range wllh the door left partially open, and heat up to ISO degrees, holding at Ibis leiuperaturo lor a to :! minutes. This treatment destroys eggs of trull-destroying in sects which might otherwise develop inside Iho containers. SINKER of mm KILLED iN SEPTEMBER LONDON, .ng III.
