INDIANS DRIED CORN AND STORED IT FOR WINTER.-- Sweet corn; roasted first on" the .cob, cut off and dried, is one of the delectable foods Indians have been storing away tor winter use through many generations, saysr a writer In the Detroit News. Green corn prepared In this way Is sweeter than if just dried as many housewives have learned to do jt. Hung up in cotton bags, lo give it ventilation. It keeps perfectly and Is always ready for quick Us^,, requiring very little cooking White housewives, however, especially In the rural districts, generally cut tiie corn and spread It on a pKiie, in its milky, juTcy- state, and leave It in the sun to dry, well covered with mosquito netting. Those who have learned how much sweeter'it is when roasted before . drying sometimes pl?ice It in a hot oven to set . the juices first, which ndt only expedites the drying process, but preserves the sugar content; : •• ' Old-fashioned wood. Stoves With deep hearths, ifito \vhich'glowing coalfi may be drawn, is the IdeAl method for roasting t.'ie ears before drying. Many Indians still ase these stoves. Others who have not the facilities for roasting the ears before .drying, simply, build a campfire in the yard and proceed to toast the ears as they did long before the advent of stovjes into the wilder nesi k • . ., It Is from the Qtdians tbiat th« whites learned to put on their cprn roasts, and camping parties everywhere during the fall days get as much "kick" out of the roasting ears <is did the old chiefs \Vho stuffed themselves with this goodie until they fell asleep. of Lalerne evxf;ing ^vas s^ht - in visiting and j Mesdames Sr^Stming* Joe^Brefe£ a^^;;,,: ^Foe May.

Maywald, Sarah Jane Hamon, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Krause, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Schondorf, Wilent. The high school gym was decorated for the occasion in Halloween colors of orange and black while corn shocks, pumpkins and autumn leaves also carried out the color scheme. Dainty refreshments of individual pumpkin pies were served and nut cups in Halloween colors were featured. How to Judge Material \yhen Buying New Shirt The question is sometimes askeil--: "What does the label, 'Genuine broadcloth, preshrunk,' mean on men's shirts?" A broadcloth, according to the boreal of home economics, is a closely jvoven material with fine ridges running crossw!«o. The "genuine" means very little, as it conveys no assurance of quality. Percale and oxforit cloth also are good wearing shirt materials. "Preshrunk*\ is antther term that doesn't help yott unless you are also told how much, preshrinking has been done. If the label says "will not shrink more than 2 per cent" ydu have something to go on. Generally speaking, loosely woven fabrics tend to shrink more than firmly woven ones. v How to Harness Fundy Bajr 111* The first step is obviously to impound the waters as ..they rush into Cobscook bay at high tide--a matter of two and a quarter hours. Dams must be constructed wherever Cobs: cook is connected with Passamaquoddy and passages leading to the ocean. The main power house will be within the dam near Kastport Buried in Its rockflll, ten giant turbines and generators (ultimately 22) will spin on the same shaft as the water pours into Cobscook bay. Near the ocean there will be a dam with gates to open and let the impounded waters flow into the sea after they have done their work. At Lubec there will be a lock in a dam to permit vessels to enter and leave the bay at any time. WEEK END SPECIALS FRESH oast BOSTON BUTTS lb Fresh Ground BEEF 2 lbs. for 25<?

The men came dressed as hoboe? and the women as gypsies and many an outstanding costume was seen, complete even to the tin cups which they were directed to bring for coffee. The activities of the evening started off with a bang as a scavenger hunt was announced and, after dividing" into teams of four persons each, wild scramble commenced in the search for articles, including a rusty nail, a horse hairj chicken feather, cornstalk, lollypop, and the signature of the city clerk or an alderman. The group to return first with their list filled, were then elegible for the, treasure hunt. The first group to return were unlucky, however, as they had obtained the mayor's signature instead of that of the clerk or alderman, and were disqualified. The second group to return was then elegible for the treasure hunt in wlihjh they were directed ;by notes which led them from the house to the garage where they were greeted by a ghost, to the blacksmith shop and in various rooms until at last they found themselves in the basement where the one finding the most diamonds out of sixteen hidden cards was pronounced the winner. The lucky one was Mrs. Albert Krause who was directed to the hidden treasure of pennies, coins and jewelry, hidden in $ copper bound box in the corner of a basement room where by dim lantern light a skeleton, snakes and other "spooky" Halloween symbols appeared. Here the guests rested and refreshed themselves with a drink of cider or beer before returning upstairs for more games and stunts, in which another treasure hunt and a witch's tour figured. Mrs. V. Austin and Albert Purvey were the first to complete their list of treasures. Then gathering around a glowing caldron in an attractive setting of cornstalks, pumpkins and leaves, the guests enjoyed a hobo lunch which they found in paper sacks around the fire. ' ' , The home was elaborately decorated for the event, a,tid the evening was a memorable one. . How to Make a Bironttwr One method of making a barometer is this: Take an eight-ounce bottle, the glass of which is clear and white. Pour Into It six ounces of the highest colored whisky that can be procured. Into this put a little more gum camphor than the liquor will dissolve. Set it on a window ledge or mantel. On the approach of rain or stormy weather the camphor will settle toward the bottom of the bottle, while fine weather is Indicated by the feather like appearance of the camphor •• It rises and floats in the liquid. \ ' .

Parasites Cause Horses' Lameness ^ . v - v Tiny Worms in the lntestines Check Circulation of Blood in Legs. .T. J^obert Graham, Chief ftt Animal Pathology and Hygiene, University of Illinois.--WNU Service. Farmers who have horses that ari going mysteriously lame at this sea son of the year can often lay th.? trouble to a parasite known as stron gyle and sometimes called hookworm. This pest is only one of a number affecting horses, and the best way to control tiiem Is through sanitation and other preventive measures. Proper treatment with repeated doses of oi' of chenopodium, after accurate diagno sis has been made, will relieve manj animalaf infested with hookworms. Where symptoms of lameness ap" pear, eggs of blood worms may be found in the stooTs of suspected anl malSi A- competent veterinarian can identify the eggs with the aid Of a microscope. If the eggs are those of the hookworm, the .treatment should be started at once. Oil of chenopodium is toxic and Is best given by a trained veterinarian. In most cases, prompt treatment frill rid the horse or the worms, and the animal will recover in a short time. ^ One farmer, who wrote the agricultural cellege for help, had three horses go mysteriously lame from what is now believed to be an infestation of strongyles. One horse was apparently all right until she suddenly stopped UNIQUE WEDDING, ST .JOHN'S CHURCH, WEDNESDAY MORN blending of lovely, pastel colors in rich velvets and laces made beautiful the wedding of Mi6s Florence Smith, the daughter of John J. Smith, and. Mr. Leo J. Smith, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Smith, which was solemnized at St. John's church Johnsburg, at 9 o'clock Wednesday morning. Father A. J. Vollman officiated at the marriage ceremony and the nuptial high mass during which the men's choir sang the "Jesu Dulcis" at the offertory and this girls' choir sang the "Ave Maria'f at the end of the mass. " A feature of the wedding was the fact that every member of the bridal party had the same surname of Smith and this important occasion was trulv a "Smith" affair. The bride did not change her name and though married will retain the name of »Smith through life. Her attendants were two maids of honor, Leona Smith, sister of the groom, and Mae Smith, sister of the bride, and two bridesmaids, Virginia Schmitt and Alma Schmitt, cousins of the bride. Walter Smith, brother of the groom, and Frederick Smith, nephew of the gfoom, served as groomsmen. The ceremony was both beautiful and impressive as the bridal party advanced to the altar to the-strains of Mendelssohn's Wedding March, where the marriage vows were taken before a large assembly of relatives and friends. The ..church was beautifully decorated with asters and fall flowers. finally had to be destroyed. A second horse was all right when put In the barn at night, hut in th^ morning had no use of one hind leg. He was no better after a week. The third horse became lame for nq apparent reason and has been too. crippled to work for a couple of months. She is making slow improvement on pasture. Similar cases have been reported by others. The lameness Is caused by the tiny worms in the intestines of the horses cutting off the circulation of blood to the legs. Unless the worms are exterminated the infested horse usually dies. and had no use of one hind leg.

Jones of the Missouri College of Agriculture in an swering inquiries . concerning insect control, Often, because of lack of time, the place where the grain is to be stored is hurriedly prepared. Several months later It is decided to hold the grain over until the price gets better and the grain is found to be badly Infested ith stored grain insects. Very likely many of these pests were harboring in the bin at the time the grain was stored. Many of the pests in the bin can be killed by thoroughly cleaning out all refuse of previous grains tha'. might be in the cracks, crevices, beneath boards, or behind partitions. After this Is done the floors of the bin should be scrubbed with boiling lye water and all crevices should be soaked thoroughly. The bin should be located where rats and mice will tend not to harbor about It, and should be as near rat proof as it is possible to make it. Often It is necessary to treat the grain in the fall for those stored grain pests that may come into the bin with the grain. If the grain Is likely to need this later treatment, the, bin should be made as gas-tight as possible before filling it with fresh grain. The Farm Potato Patch Some folks think that farm potato patch philosophy is'just sitting down and thinking things over, says a writer in the Indiana Farmers' Guide. It Is not that alone but means doing things right and the thinking should be put Into action. Philosophy means the causes or reasons or, In othef words. re or success. The natural cause* for failure are" few, such as heavy Continued rains followed by a hot suit at planting time, drouth, hail or unwarranted freezing temperatures. Most of the other causes for failure are frOm neglect on the part of the grower. The reasons for success are also few, but If practiced they will. bring excellent results. Foulbrood, Worst Disease Foulbrood Is perhaps the worst disease that attacks bees and one of the hardest to get rid of unless the proper method, burning the hive, Is resorted to. Fire is the best medium of de struct ion for the disease. The whole colony must be burned, also the frames, covers, plates, combs, layers and everything that is part of the hive. All tools also must be thoroughly disinfected or they will Infect disease- free hives. in a wadding gown of white velvet with a long train and trimmed with Pearl leaves at the waistline and arotfnd the long sleeves, while cut work around the neck and velvet buttons on the back of the bodice also served as trimming, A long tulle veil edged with lace and enriched with insets of lace at the end^ of its softly flowing folds was worn with a lace headpiece itnd crown of--orange blossoms in an off-the-faco effect and the bridal bouquet was ,a .shower of roses and lilies of the valley.
