SUGAR FAMINE IN
NEBRASKA IS NOW
OVER-BATTLES
Food Administrator Returns
From Conference of Dic
tators of the Entire
Country.
'The sugar situation is rapidly be
ing relieved," said G. W. Wattles,
Nebraska food administrator, on his
return from Washington Tuesday
morning.
"The sugar famine is over so far as
Nebraska is concerned. In fact, we
have never really felt it here. We
have had no idea of the pinch they
felt in the east."
Mr. Wattles spent over a. week in
Washington, where he attended a
conference of the state food admin
istators with Federal Food Admin
istrator Hoover. Thirty-five of the
48 state administrators were present
at the conference.'
Meeting Important
"The meeting wa$ important," said
Mr. Wattles, "in that we brought to
gether the experiences and problems
of the various state food administra
tors with the result that some of the
policies had to be changed to bring
about a uniformity of action in all
the states. In some cases Mr. Hoo
ver himself changed his mind on
points in order to conform to what
proved to be a better plan suggested
by some of the state administrators
on certain details. Mr. Hoover was
so impressed with the importance of
this cpnference that he decided to
hold such a conference monthly."
Appoint County Pictators.
Mr. Wattles will immediately ap
point a county food administrator in
r enimtv nf the state, who will
bear the relation to his county which
Mr. Wattles bears to thestate. As
soon as they are appointed they will
hr railed for a meetinar in Omaha De
cember 5, where they will receive full
instructions.

Franklin Autos to Relieve
Strain on Belt Thanksgiving
The latest novelty injected into the
Franklin "Show-the-Car" contest is
a fitting climax for the Thanksgiving
iy dinner. The salesmen participat
inn in this contest have agreed to de
vote their time on this festive holi
day to providing rides to as many
as they can accommodate. However,
this must be by appointments made
pot later than Wednesday evening at
6 o'clock,
This, afcserts H. Pelton, should be
a fine way to "top off" the Thanks
giving dinner and a brisk spin in the
fresh air will relieve the strain on
many a belt or waist line.
"We don't want anyone to feel un
der obligations to us for this ride.
Our salesmen are competing for
prizes which will be awarded to the
salesmen showing the car to the
greatest number of people. They are
therefore anxious to take people for a
ride. No sales canvass will be made.
Our reward comes through having
you know about the car.

We find ourselves in a peculiar po

fast approaching a holiday particu

holiday especially dedicated to feast

midst of a great food conservation
movement. How can we unite con-,

Carving Turkey
First, place the fork firmly in the
center of the breast-bone at itsery
hiphest point. Remove the leg by
inserting the knife behind it, then
make a clean cut around it. With the
blade of the knife press back the leg
and the thigh. This can be done with
a single motion.
Ntxk cut the ligaments where the
thigh-bone is attached to the back.
Th;sL severs the leg. The "oyster."
which is a choice rich bit of dark
meat, is found at the end of the side
bone toward the tail in a bone' de
pression. It may be carved out at this
point.
. To remove the wing, first make an
incision at the joint, and as soon as
you find the point of division between
the two bones cut down sharply.
To cut thin slices from the breast,
begin close to the place from which
the wing was removed. Then work
up to the ridge of the- breast-bone.
Many carvers attempt to make the
first slices from the breast the larg
est; this is a mistake.
At this point the fork can be re
moved and used. with the knife to
separate the drumstick from the thigh.
Locate, as with the wing, the point
at which the two bones can be se
vered, which will be just over the
rQU idVbone of the leg-joint and not
at its apex, as one might think. With
one sharp stroke cut through the
ligaments at this" joint
Next, cut the, dark meat onboth
thij?h-bone and drumstick into small
and inviting portions and divide the
wing into two parts.
If the meat has been entirely re
moved from the breast, the stuffing
will be laid bare for serving. Make
an opening at the breast, especially
if there are two kinds of stuffing.
Always serve a portion of light and
lark meat and some of the stuffing
on each plate. Carve but one side of
the turkey, and when that is served
carve the opposite side in a manner
similar to the first side. November

Omaha Women Want to Join
British Aviation Corps
Sergeant Edney of the British-Canadian
recrbiting mission is anxiously
awaiting the arrival of certain papers
from New York which will advise
him in regard to .women's services in
the war..
Three English wome.i have called
at the recruiting station begging to
know what chance they have to serve
in the aviation corps.
The women are well acquainted
with automobile mechanic, and if
there is any opportunity for them in
the service they shall be given it at
once. :
"Ithink it about time that the men
were responding as readily as the wo
men," said Sergeant Edney today.
"Although recruiting in Omaha and
over the state has been exceptionally
good, it could easily be better. And
I do not, want the women to surpass
the men.'"
On the representations 6i the three
women Sergeant Edney sent to New
York for literature that will enable
him to satisfy the fair applicants.
Local Methodists to Raise
$500,000 for Enttowment
Methodists of Omaha will start a
drive next Monday for the purpose
of raising $500,000 for the funa to aid
in giving support to retired ministers
of the church, their widows and
orphans. The fund is to be perma
nent and invested in interest bearing
securities. Only the interest; will be
used. It is figured that the net in
come from $500,000 should be $25,000
if the money is properly handled. This
interest monejj will be ktiown as the
endowment fund. .
Next Sunday Methodist bishops,
clergymen and laymen will speak in
favor of the endowment fund.
1 The ineome from the $oo0,000 fund
and from other church sources will
be sufficient to pay retired ministers
$400 a year. .
Evidence in Liquor Case
Disappears; Trial Continued
A case of whisky, taken from Dan
Carey, 1023 South Twenty-third
street, on Friday night, and which
was being held as evidence against
him, was missing this morning when
thevcase came up for trial in police
court. Investigation developed that
it had been released to the party to
whom it was addressed. Detectives
were sent to recover the lost evi
dence, and the case was continued.
Carey declared that he saw three
men hide the case in a barn near
Twenty-third and Leavenworth
streets, and, not knowing it contained
whisky, took it and was carrying it
home when arrested by Officers' Roo
ney and Holden. Carey is employed
by the Nebraska Power company, he
said. '

HOG GROWERS WANT ,
SOFT CORN TO FEED
0. G. Smith of Kearney ;Here
to Secure Cars to Help
Out Western
Farmers.
Western Nebraska hog breedeis
want much of the soft corn Rrown in
eastern Nebraska this year to feed
their herds of hogs. O. G. Smith of
Kearney, president of the Nebraska
Farm congress, and one of the .
largest hog breeders in the state, is
in Omaha looking over the car situa
tion in the hope of getting a lot of
cars released to-haul this corn west
ward. Mr. Smith found on arriving here
that the priority on wheat cars has
been removed now, and this, he be-
lieves, will release enough cars tT'JL
help ciut the situation considerably
in -the matter of getting corn ship
ments into the western part of the
state.
Monday Mr. Smih attended a con
ference of 25 hog breeders in Lin- v
coin, when some of the problems ot
this business were taken up. ' At this
meeting the ?tate was cut into 17
districts, and a prominent hog breeder
in each district was appointed to take
charge of the calling of mass meet
ings to discuss increased production.
At these meetings the appeal will be
made to the breeders to raise an ex
tra litter or two of pigs this year.
It ' was decided at tho- conference
also to ask every city in the state
to repeal its ordinances against the
keeping of hogs in the city and to
allow every household to keep at
least one hog to consume the table
scraps and other refuse, and at the
same time to grow into money and
the much needed pork.

I Hints for Busy Housewives.
Common salt and water make a
capital gargle fdr a sore throat, and
this lotion also, relieves tired eyes.
Add" a pinch of carbonate of soda
to fruit when stewing. This takes
away the tartness, and less sugar is
required.
A pinch of salt placed . on . the -tongue
and washed down with a cup
of hot strong tea isan excellent cure
for a sick headache.
When scrubbing linoleum add a lit- .
tie parrafiu to the water. It takes
out dirt and grease and gives lino
leum a beautiful polish. i "
Wash tea leaves before you use.
them to sprinkle over a carpet. If
used just as they come from the tea- s
pot they are likely to stain anything
with a light ground.
To keep bread fresh soak a small
new sponge in cold water, place it in
a saucer and stand the saucer in the
bread pan. The bread will remain
moist for several days.
Before putting a bright pann the
firerub it over with a little dripping.
When washing up, use soapy water,
and when dry rub with a soft duster.
By this method your pans will keep
bright for weeks. '
Colored handkerchiefs require care
in washing, and should first be soaked
for 10 minutes in a basin of tepid
water to which a teaspoonful of tur
pentine has been added. This will
insure them retaining their color. i
