Kestler of Morgan ton met with the Hickory manufacturers Monday afternoon to discuss wajs and means to meet the proposed changes in interstate freight rate.5. The meeting was well attended, and while the sentiment was largely in faor of granting a fair increase, was decided that an effort should Le made to combat a complete overturn ing of the present intrastate rates through the cancellation of the North Carolina exception sheet and tne adoption ot the soithern classifica tion, which results in adwuis in the classifying of article, as well as to advance r 1 classes in the his-is scale now apj.'.id in North Carolina.

MASONS INSTALL OFFICERS MONDAY NICJIT .Raleigh, June 26. Dried vegeta bles and fruits that do not taste like hay. Such a product is possible ar.d will be turned out in North Caroli na this year by the thousanas of pounds. The high prices anu the scarcity of tin containers and glass jars suitable for canning vegetables and fruits, together with the neces sity for the conservation of every pound of edible products possible, several weeks ago turned. attv-sJion of food experts to improved methods of drying or evaporating these vege tables and fruits. So great has been the interest in North Carolina in this matter that the department of agriculture re cently sent State Horticulturist W. N. Hutt and Assistant Horticultur ist C. D. Matthews to New Ycrk to investigate the most improved and approved methods of conserving food products by the various drying pro cesses, whether described as evap orating, dehydrating or defeating. All of these variously described methods have for their object the drying of the products at low enough temperature to avoid driving off the essential oils which contain the fla vor and yet at a sufficiently high tem perature to drive off the moisture quickly and thus avoid deterioation. Vegetables and fruits dried ana saved by these modern methods have a delicacy of flavor that would nv. be suspected by anyone who has been accustomed to products dried in the sun. Messrs. Hutt and MaliheWo, after investigating the commercial plants and a number of smaller out fits for home drying, decided that any intelligent housewife could turn out just as good products as the com. mercial plants. Mr. Matthews has prepared a bulletin describing the improved methods of drying and giv ing directions for making an evapor ator for home use. This bulietui vill be available within a few days and can be secured by anyone in North Carolina without cost. It is interesting to note in this connection that while this country has been backward in the matter of improved methods of drying vegeta bles and fruits there were 425 com mercial dehydrating plants in Ger many before the beginning of the War. The number has no doubt in creased since then. It is also inter esting to note that one New York concern some months ago filled an or der for 80,000 pounds of dried cab bage for the French army; 80,000 pounds of dried cabbage is equiva lent to 800,000 pounds of green cab bage. Experts of the department of agriculture at Whshington and of the state are confident that a largo volume of vegetables, by themselves and in soup mixtures, and of fruits will hereafter be saved through im proved methods of drying. EVERY HOUSEHOLD SHOULD DRY FRUIT Offjccrs of Hickory lod, 343, A. F. and A. M., were installed Mon day night and Thursday night the lodge will begin some more degree work.. The officers, who were elected some time ago, follow: ;F. L. Moose, master; W. L. Boat right, senior warden; J. N. Flowers, junior warden; J. W. Elliott, treas urer, D. L. Miller, secretary; F. A. Henderson, senior deacon; W. A. Rudasill, junior deacon; Horace Goods, senior sentinel, H. A. Pall, junior sentinel, and H. W. Minga, tyler. THIS MIGHT BE CALLED RATHER WARM WEATHER WJith the mercury registering 92 degrees at 1 o'clock this afternoon and giving indications of ascending higher, there was nothing to indicate that this would not be a rather warm day. In fact it started off rather warm, according to the official ther mometer, by registering 69 degrees. On Monday the highest temperature was 95 and the lowest 69; today started off one degree better or worse. Washington, D. C, June 26. ''Every houiewijfle thite yVar should restore to her home the often over looked home industries of canning, preserving, pickling and drying of perishable fruits or vegetables," said David F. Houston, secretary of agri culture. "The large number of new back-yard gardens which have beer, planted this year shortly will begin to yield their extra harvest of beans, peas, carrots, beets, sweet corn, and tomatoes. The regular supplies also will reach the markets and, as hap pens each summer, the local supply at times will exceed immediate con sumptive capacity. Not to conserve much of this surplusage of valuable food would be sinful waste. "The preselt food and labor sit uations are such that no household is justified in looking to others to release it wholly from individua' re sponsibility and constructive action in saving and conserving food. All any home should expect of others is to supply those foods which can not be produced effectively by its own mem bers The railroads will be burden ed with the transportation of staple foods and civil and military neces saries from localities of production and manufacture to districts inca pable of supplying their own needs. It follows that all locally produced foods, conserved by home methods, lessen the winter pressure on trans portation agencies and also release similar products of factories for oth er purposes. 'I urge every household, therefore to can all surplus perishable prod ucts for which they have containers and to dry and keep in paper any additional surplus suitable for such preservation. "Canning calls for no special skill and for little equipment beyond a wash boiler and jars. Fresh pro ducts, cleanliness anH. heat are the chief requirements, as even sugar is not essential for canning fruits un der modern procedure. Fruits and vegetables, moreover, can be dried ef ficiently in the sun, over a range or gas stove, or before an electric fan. Homemade shallow trays of wood or heavy wire screen are the chief equip ment required. Drying is a time tried home industry; conservation of food by drying is largely a matter of restoring to the home great grandmother's method of seeing that her family had good food in winter as a relief from a monontonous diet of root vegetables. Canning and dry ing can be practiced as effectively ni a city house or apartment as on a farm or in a suburban dwelling. '"Canning, of course already is a profitable industry for women and children in thousands of homes and I trust will become almost universal this season. To aid the home con servation movement, the department of agriculture has issued a new farmers' bulletin on home canning and another on home drying of fruits and vegetables. These free pamphlets should be read and fol lowed in every household which wish es to translate patriotic impulse into concrete service."
