HOMEMADE COOLER IS EASILY MADE Will Save the Cost of Refrigerator From the Factory Makers WILL KEEP FOOD WiTHOUT ANY ICE , The Way to Make it Is Fully Explained in the Article Below. Where ice is not obtainable an ice''less refrigerator, homemade, will be a useful food keeper and food saver this summer. Maintaining a low ten. perature through the evaporation of water from its canvas cover, the iceless refrigerator will k<x p nu-al.fruits and vegetables cool and wi! extend the period f a* kecn'ng mi":-, and butter. It can also serve as a cooler for drinking water. This is the way to make it: A wooden frame is mad0 with dimensions 42 by 11? by 14 inches an ' covered with .creen wire. p> 'fcabh the rustless type, which costs lilt, more than the ordinat e kind. i. door is made to fil cU-sely, and mounted on brass hinges, am! can b fastened with a wooden at h. Tie bottom is fitted solid, but the !< ; should be covered with screen wire. Adjustable shelves can be ma le of solid wood or strips, or sheets of galvanized metal. Shelves made of poultry netting' on light wooden frames are probbaly lht. most desirable. These shelves rest on side braces placed at desTcd intervals. A bread baking pan, 14 by 1G inches, is placed on tho top and the frame rests in a 17 by 18 inch pan. Paint makes Surface Attractive? Prevents Rust. All the woodwork, the shelves, and the pans should receive two coats of white paint and one or two coats of white enamel. This makes a very attractive surface and one that can lie easily kept clean. The screen wire also may receive the coats of enamel, which will prevent, it from rusting. A cover of canton flannel, burlap, or duck is made to fit a frame. Put the smooth side out if canton flannel is used. It will require about M yards of material. This cover is buttoned around the top of the frame and down the s^? on which the door is not hinged, using buggy hooks ana eyes or large headed tacks and eyelets worked in the material. On the front side arrange hooks on the top of the door instead of on the frame and also fasten the cover clown the latch side oj the door, allow ing a wide he m of the material t< overlap the place whore the do* i closes. The door < then b<> op me. without unbutton!..g the cover. Th bottom of the4 cover should out; a down into tho lower pan. Kou double strips, whi.'h hip . - >: inches in width, arc sewed to the upper part of the cover. These strips form wicks that dip over into the upper pan. The dimensions given make a refrigerator of vojy conveni-mt size fo. household use ; nd with ".' " km evaporating .?.1 * . hut necessary to iVdov; - ric th i intensions.

As evaporation take.place, heat is token from the inside of the refrigerator, thereby lowering the temperature of the inside and the contents. Capillary action starts more readily if the cover is first dampened by dipping it in water or throwing water upon it. The greater the rate of evaporation the lower the temperature which can be. secured; therefore the refrigerator works besi v. hen rapid evaporation takes place. When the refrigerator is placed it a sliady placc in a strong breeze an< the air is warm and dry, evaporatioi trices place continuously and rapidl the temperature inside the rc frigerator is reduced. Under idea conditions the temperature has bee known to be reduced to 50 degree F.

Millers throughout South ; Carolina have been authorized by the ! Food Administration to grind, from wheat made by farmers, enough flour j to supply their families and their ten- ' ants for 12 months. This amount must, however, be based upon a calculation of 12 pounds per mouth per person. j Although using flour ground from home-grown wheat, farmers are ex ! pected by the Food Administration i to nevertheless observe strictly the fifty-fifty rule and to use flour substitutes. pound for pound, with the flour thev have ground. The fact that they : have produced their own wheat does not release them from this obligation. | They are also expected to see to it ; tnui moir tenants. lurnisnoci ny mom. use flour substitutes on the llfty-iit'iy basis. Farmers who grow whor.t may soil flour to their neighbors who porhu]>s ! have not. but i:i such cases tluy will j be required, under the rules of the! Food Adinin s' rat ion. to sell an equal' amount of flour substitutes, the same as a meivhant, or take miller's cerlitba'es from the purchaser showing 111;;t the purchaser has had Hour substitutes ground to cover the flour' bought, pound for pound. Farmers may sell flour, from their wheat, to merchants, but when merchants resell this flour it must be sold, pound for pound, with flour substitutes, to ; 'he persons who buy it. These regulations apply to thresh- ! or men as well as to mroiers. LICENSES ARE REQUIRED TO DEAL IN POULTRY Columbia.?Country or cross-road storekeepers who buy eggs and sometimes poultry from the farmers, for seliing again, are required, under the proclamation of President Wilson off May 11th, to obtain licenses from the Food Administration. The fact that most country stores are In the re-j tail business on a verv small scale I floes not alley the case, but as a rule these storek epers have not consider* nl themselves liable. The President's j proclamation required the licensing i of all those engaged in certain lines i of business, including "operators oi poultry and egg pa king plants not a 1 - i 1 eady lice; sod ruder the I'nited; Plates Food Administration."

Columbia. ? The thirty day rule which provided that farmers could have ground into flour for their own use no more home grown wheat than would be required for their families for a period of thirty days, has been suspended by the Food Administration and regulations governing the grinding of whea thave been issued. I ndor the new regulations, farmers are permitted to draw their year's supply of Hour from the mill or in exchange for their own wheat, but for the present they must draw only for 1 a throe months' period, or from the ; time of grinding to October 1. They cannot draw this from mills in excess ; of twelve pounds of flour per person 1 per month for use of their households and tenants, and they should continue in respect to the use of substitutes on the present basis until such time as the general substitute program for the whole country shall he changed. This means simply that farmers who hn\e grown their own wheat are expected i <o use win at suhst i? utes, with whc. t ' flour, the same as heretofore, oil the fiftv-fi'[y basis. Tlie mills of SouMi Carolina are being notified by the Kood Administration of the new regain!ions. Mills nmst not grind for fanners J mere than enough wheat to supply the farmers and their families ami ti 1 ants from the date of grinding to One her 1. The amount ground should be 1 estimated upon the basis of twelve ' pounds per person per month. I'ntil the new rules in regard to wheat substitutes are enaoted. mi lb must not deliver any flour to farmer* j unless they sign the pledge caVd. agreeing to use one pound of flour , substitutes for every pound of flour used. Takers, retailors and the general | public are not released from the regu- \ Jar program, already announced by ' this new regulation. which applies only to farmers who have grown their , own wheat. CONSERVE SUGAR EVEN IN PRESERVING Rich Preserves and Jellies Should Noi Be Attempted?Sugar for Canning and Preserving is Limited. Columbia.?Because of tbe acuteness of the shortage in su;.;ar. house';p,?p.'rs are urged by the Food Adminis'rar ion. as far as it is practical, to preserve fruits this summer in other ways than preset ves and jellies, which require a great deal of sugar. A light syrup allows the flavor of tho frr.it fo predominate and gives a sauce that is both wholesome and palatable, lioney is an excellent sweetening for 1 certain fruits. Housekeepers should not at this time attempt to furnish canned goods for the government, but they caa take care of the local supply of fruits and vegetables, thus reliev- ' i:ig the demand upon the commercial sto k which, may he used hv the gov-! errmeut next winter. Although the1 situation as regards the supply o* J s".gar is serious, provision has been i m da by 'be Food Administration to j up .!> a upie ;u,ar for canning and 1 1 pr vee-vi:g, prow led. of course, that it i is n-od i reason, for it is regarded j us itnpo-:an.* that as rr.u-h as possible ! of the perishable products be conserv* j v'l. f:.r canning and pre;s" ving *i <e obtained jn cjuan.i'ies of 25 < Is per month per person upon! *hr i\r ,wg if a pledge Mia' the au'/ar ' ' so .on ui d will Isus'?rl for at a ir* ' ><} ' A 1> "aleva rough It ' ho i state have boon furnished with corj iii'-a es.

Roast beef has likewise boon eliminated. These moats are served only day a wopk. under order of too Food Administration, and in many public satins places beef Is not served at all. Patriotic people through1 out the state are expected by the Food Administration to voluntarily restrict themselves in the consumption of beef and to observe the re> strict ions as rigidly on their home tables as the rule is being enforced In 3 public eating places. The demand for j beef for the army and the allied armj los and their civil population for thU summer makes It necessary that the people who stay at home practically give up beof.
