Saw the Straw
There are two good reasons why
every bit of straw in the state ought
to bo saved this year: Scarcity of
roaghness, and tho demand for straw
for army purposes. Straw for stock,
especially oats straw, will bo valua
ble. The Government is in tho
market for good baled straw for ar
my purposes. All straw should bo
baled or stored inside. It will bo
too valuable to let go to waste this
year.

Never in the history of tho stato
has there been a candidate on cither
party ticket for tho United States
Senate as closely identified with tho
agricultural interests of Nebraska as
Cpngressman Sloan. Educated in an
agricultural school, living on and
operating a largo farm, he has given
especial attention to federal legisla
tion as it effects agriculture and is
recognized in Washington as tho
leading authority there in Congress
on all matters pertaining to agricul
ture. As agriculture is by far tho
principal industry of Nebraska, Con
gressman Sloan's candidacy for the
Senate should especially appeal to
the voters of tho state this year.

With tho corn season on in full
swing tho noxt thing in lino is tho
canning. A great many pcoplo pre
servo it by salting or by using salt
and sucrar. Save the salt and sugar
for more essentials and got a better
product with tho cold pack canning.
Pick tho corn in tho milk stngo
the sarno day it is to bo canned.
Husk and silk it. Havo a kottlo of
boiling water and plunge tho corn
in so tho water will be over it. When
tho water begins to boil let it boll
for ilvo minutes. Remove and
plungo into cold wator. Whllo it i3
cooling put morn corn in tho hot
water. Removo tho corn from tho
cold water so it will not become
water soaked, and cut from tho cob,
cutting from tho tip to tho butt end.
Put into jars, packing loosely and
fillintr to tho nock. Add ono tea
spoon of salt to a quart and pour, ovi

Uemovo tho jars and seal tight.
Beans and corn canned tocethor
maKo a pleasing combination. Shell
the beans and blanch in boiling wa
ter for ten minutes. Cold dip and
mix with tho corn, following tho
above directions for canning.
Drying is a very economical way
to savo corn. Cut from tho cob and
spread on pans. Set In a warm oven
until tho milk is set and tnenpic.ee
in tho drier. Heating in tho oven
instead of cooking in water gives a
lighter product in color.

of their ucdt products at tho Ne

A campaign is being conuueteu, it
is stated, to secure for the stato fair
tho finest agricultural exhibits that
tho stato can produce. Tho fair, this
yoar is to bo mndo a powerful stim
ulus to increased food production.
Tho best that Nebraska can raiso nnd
in bigger variety than ever before, is
tho order. Such exhibits will afford
farmers a better means of study qt

Nebraska, for years, has had a farm
products exhibit unequalled by any
fair in tho country, hut tho plan is
to this year outdo all former exhib
its. Live stock exhibits will hoi given
tho same encouragement as tho farm
products. Each year shows improve

Lutheran Church Notes
By Rov. C. 11. Lowo.
No .services at Salem last Sunday
morning on account of rain. '
There is a noclon very much
abroad that in tho affairs of men tho
things of tho house of God can bo
left to shift for themselves whilo al
most all other kinds of work tnko
precedence. That is a mistake. Of
course a thing like that can bo done,
but it is liko tho man who saved at
tho spigot nnd lost at tho bungholc.
If a man may neglect God and still
live, go your best, but no ono has
over dono it yot. "Tho nation that
forgets God shall die," and so shall tho
individual. God tells us so in as
many words. Whatever comes to
pass, we are not to forgot God. Hu
is no going to let tho Wjrhl stnrvtf""
nor is he going to lot thn war go
against what is right unci all the la
bor with him loft out is not going to
feed tho multitudes nor win tho war.
God can overthrow battles today iu
he did in days of Gideon. In fact,
if Congressman Stephens' story of
Verdun is truo as Wo haVo no doubt,
tho enemy retreat from thoso heights
is nothing short of an example of it.
Go to tho prophesies and seo what
oofell God's people because they for
sook tho house of God. Read 2
Chron., 24:20, 31:25, Jes 16:- 11-13.
II there is anything in the fact that
wars are because of sins of tho peo-plc-and
tho bibb tenches there is
wo will do well not to 1'orsuke tho
house of God and his service, hut
give ourselves to tt. If God's plan
is to bring people to know him, the
plan is not served by forsaking his
house. O yes, it may oe against our
wish nnd wo maj havo to leavo some
thing undono wo wanted to do, but
there i3 ;ust tho point of all. God's
way is usually contrary to tho nat
ural man's. Wo had better live with
a little less money hero nnd bo rich
toward God than to bo rich in this
world and be cast into hell. You
will find godliness will not interfere
with your labor. When Luther had
tho most work to do ho spent tho
most timo in prayer, and he was a
busy man in his timo. What wo need
is, faith. If wc o'culd work moro at
prayer, God would work moro in tho
Holds, that is, ho would prospor tho
labor moro that wo bestowed, on tho
fields. Christian people should not
let themselves get lax in this thing
of waiting on God's house. Wo
should glorify God. Wo need tho
services of God's house, it is a feed
ing place lor tno soul, ana Hie spirit.
If wo draw near to him ho will draw
near to us. "Yo havo not becauto
yo ask not." Coma to tho houso of
God nnd bo filled. Ho that soekoth
a spiritual blessing shall find it.
