we come to the packing and storing of the fruits and vegetables you have dried. Although not necessary, tin cans or glass Jars mako good receptacles for storing dried products. Paste-board boxes with tight covers, stout paper bags, and patented parrafln paper cartoons also afford ample protection for dried fruits and things, when protected from Insects and rodents. The products must bo protected from tho outside moisture and will keep best In a cool, dry, well-ventilate placo. In humid regions air tight containers should be used.

If you pack just enough for a meal'in each container, it will not be necessary to open a container the contents of which cannot bo consumed In a short time. If a paper bag is used the upper part should bo twisted Into a neck, bont over and tied tightly, with twine. You might also paint It with a brush clipped In melted parafln. You might tako an added precaution by putting tho bags in tin container with a tight fitting cover, such as a lard can or pall. Labol all "bags to show what they contain.

If fruits or vegetables arc packed In tight containers immediately upon being thoroughly dried they will remain just as brittle as when taken from tho drier. If not dried thoroughly they will soon mold. To pro- vent this the material should bo examined within 24 hours after pack- Ing and If It appears moist it must bo dried further.

New York, August Rae- maeker, Dutch cartoonist on whose lead the Kaiser set a price of 12,000 narks, for showing up the Hun in all its frightfulness, is in America and will attempt to rouse Americans to a full sense of the "brutal Boche," driving home his argument with his powerful cartoons. Raemaeker arrived at an American port recently after playing hide and ieek with the German spy system at London and evading U-boats whose ommandera had orders to "get" him. When seen at the Vanderbllt hotel laughingly told how he evaded Germans who were Intent on preventing him reaching America. He remained in London for several days then jumped over to France, where ho apparently sailed on at east a dozen vessels bound for the United States. He would board a vessel late at night.

"They are too terrible. Yet they are right now planning organized sympathy, for after the war." "My Idea Is to conduct a trial after the war. A Just trial where everyman's guilt will be tried. Just like any criminal. Let no spirit of revenge prevail, but meet out to every man the punishment he deserves for the part ho played In the outrage;" "Tha Gorman spy system Is more perfect than their army.

Every man Is a potential spy." Asked If ho did not feel apprehensive for his personal safety Raemaek- or shrugged his shoulders. "I am armed," ho replied.

Germany Filling Fighting Ranks With Her Boys BY HENRY WOOD, (United Press Staff Correspondent).

With tho French Armies, July 25, (by last untouched resources of men have now been completely exhausted. To fill up the constant losses In ranks, amounting to hundreds of thousands monthly, only two sources remain from'which she can draw her boy soldiers of the classes of 1918, 1019, all called to tho colors from ono to two years before their regular military age, and tho wounded soldiers who are able to return to the front from the hospitals. Thla latter category furnishes Germany an average of 60,000 men per month. These facts are established beyond al-ldoubt by authoritative information from various confirmatory sources. With tho older classes, called to tho colors 'with the outbreak of the war, now largely wiped out, Germany la making terrible Inroads on her boy classes prematurely called to the front slnco August, 1914.

These youths are being used to fill up the ranks of the Infantry, where young, vigorous and enthusiastic soldiers are Indispensable for the launching of attacks. It Is here that the greatest losses also occcur. The Gercan Infantry at the present tlmo consists closely to 40 percent of tho young classes of 1915 to 1919. Tho classes of 1916 and 1916, both of which are rapidly dwindling furnish 15 per cent of the infantry In the fighting lines. The class og 1917 which is now entirely under the colors-furnishes another 12 to 15 per cent, while the class of 1918, which la now arriving on the front In very large numbers furnishes another 5 to 10 per cent, The remainder of this class which is still in the depots constitutes practically the only reserves which Germany has left.

To meet this emergency, the class of 1919 Is now undeh instruction while the class pf 1920 has already been examined for conscription. The military age In Germany is 20 In the case of the class of 1915, it' was not called to the colors until April of that year or at the age, thlcpretlcally, of 20 years and 4 months. The class of 1916 was called to the colors at the age of 19 years and 8 1-2 months; the closs of 1917 called at 19 years 2 months; the class of 1918 at 18 years, 10 1-2 months and the clasa of 1919 at 18 years and six months. The class of 1920, although already examined, has not yet been summoned. The pressure under which Germany has been employ these boy soldiers is also indicated by their periods of Instruction.

The class, of 1915 was thrown into the battlefront with only two or three months of Instruction, but with such errlble losses, caused by his inexperience, that even Germany was forced to recognize that It was the costliest economy. The classes of 1916 and 1917 were given an instruction ranging from 9 to 10 mouths, While this gave better results yet by the time the class of 1918 was called to the colors, Germany was again in such straits for men, that the boys of this class were brought onto the front again with only three mouths of instruction. The accuracy of the above figures is confirmed in every capture of prisoners large enough to make a basis of comparison.
