In both ninny well known nrgumonts for nnd against the On'gon climate Is noted: LINES. i Dcillcnted to the nuthor of "Won foot Land.") oi yes, we've reached the Webfoot, Vml how wo wIhIi we'd notl Hi how wo Ions to be once more Whore It's either rold or hot. here wo might hnve n dry spell Of a hundred days or more, Vml whero the dust at ChrlHtninn, Your hIioo tops covers o'er. Or instead of listening calmly I'o the raindrops gontlu How, Oit give me a nice blizzard At forty-two below. And If I wish to see n friend, I II travel In a sled, With n wnrmed-up brickbat at tny feet And a blanket 'round my hcnd. And whero no one hIIb Idle, ('ently chatting at his case, lint stlru around real lively, In hoped that he won't freeze. "It raliiH at morn, It rnltiH at eve," Oh, hear my mournful wall, And carry mo bnck to Illinois With Its storms of wind and hnll. Instead of digging up the "spuds" When o'crvtho farmers please, Oh, give mo Kalians locusts To devour my bonus nnd pens. I am so tired of Webfoot, With Its skies of somber huo. I pine for dear Wisconsin's woods Where thu air with smoku Is blue. Oh, could I leavo this land of mud For Icy Eustorn plains, I'd gladly wenr fur coats galore, If I could miss these rains. I'd grumble not at tldnl waves, Or n hurrlcano or two, If I could be In Texas With my clothes all dry nnd now. Now If thu chronic grumbler Feels hu surely must migrate, We'll try to raise thu needful To ship him out thu stnte. For who known what might hnppen, What pnlim his system rack, If thu webs should start boweon Ills toes And thu moss upon his bnck. lie says ho's tired of Webfoot. With Its sunshine "scant and dim," Of course, wo wouldn't toll It, 1 ut old W'tbTouJptln? rated by thu means of a "main line," ns It Is cnllod, and "ach capnble of being emptied, or "blown out" at will. Thu result Is to placo effective weight Juki whore It Is required In a mini mum of tlmo, tho all-surrounding water bolng ovor at tho disposal of thu controlling olllcor on board. Thu Inventor hopes In tlmo that his anti-rolling tank will be tlttcd to all modern battleships. Tho naval gun ner Is at prosent handicapped In his aim by thu rolling of tho ship, and tho securing of a steady firing plat form Is of Immeasurable assistance to him. It Is also necessary to pre- wnt n warship from rolling to nn niiglo which will exnoso tho unnrmor- i'il part of hor hull to tho unomy'a lire. Recent experiments on a largo sinlu hnvo proved that a ship fitted with this tank has a roll of only from - degroos to 3 degrees as compared with tho old motion of 10 degrees and 20 dogroes.

IR.GET THE Msm At Fair ILJLI Grounds 23, at 2 P. M. ft 25 Cents THINKS WORTH KNOWING ' I A Few Hints fop t,e Newly I WeiN From Old Reliable I Tho following valuable hints for young housewives have been con tributed by Old Reliable, whoso ex cellent recipes and suggestions ap pear In tho Housewives Exchange. When buying steaks and you can not afford the choicest cuts, see that you gut a cut from the cen ter or the i omul, cut thick. Use the top round for steaks. The bot tom round you may use for chill eonenrno, meat balls. Hamburger steak, meat pics, etc. Don't despair or get angry when youi husbnnd conies home late for his meals. If you have everything ready and arc afraid It will get spoiled, take a lurae toasting pan, put your soup, stew, etc., In tho pan. fill with hot water, put on top of the stove nnd keep warm. Do not fry steak or chops be fore he has arrived. They will not take long and I am sine he will bo willing to wait. For pies and roasts have vour oven hot before putting them' In. For cakes, such i.s pound, loaf or layer, use a medium hot oven. Sponge cakes require a little more heat nl flrHt. If tho bottom of your stove Is linking too fast, put nu asbestos plate under the cake. When cakes aro browning too fnst on the top, cover with n sheet of asbestos pa per, which you enn buy In any hardware store. Save all your bacon dripping when frying bacon and eggs for breakfast; It Is fine for frying fish, liver, etc., with a little Imttur added, nnd gives n flnu flavor. Save nil drippings from beef and pork ronst. When you have suffi cient on hand, put In u pot, ndd some cottonseed oil nnd n few slices of rnw potatoes; boll togot.ier, skim off tho scum, put through u slevu Into a crock, ndd a pinch of baking soda and when It begins to cool, stir to a cream. It wl.. bo nice and white and makes fine piecrust When washing dishes, uso the common washing soda. It Is clean ur and more economical than soap and puts a better shiuu on your dishes; It Is nlso fine for cleaning burnt pots by soaking them In the soda water. Never put pots to sonk In lint water. Uso cold and they aro much more easily cleaned. When mixing pie-crust, don't add too much water, as It will "burn" the dough and make tho crust tough. When poaching eggs, greaso tho pan first: tho eggs will not stick to the bottom then. Cover tho eggs with n lid Just boforo serv ing. It will give them a nlco pink glazed look. Cover your dralnboard with lem on juice for about an hour, then wash off with wnrm water. This makes It nice and white. If you have a llttlo cornbeof loft over from dinner, make cornbeof linsh for breakfast out of It by cutting or chopping It Into small pieces, add tho snmu amount of cooked potatoes, n small piece of onion braized first In a llttlo but ter; add some black popper, n llt tlo soup stock (If not on hand, add water; mix all together; put In baking dish. If the meat Is not fat enough put In a few dabs of butter on top, Hake until a nlco brown crust forms. Put on n hot pinto and servo (If liked) with a poached egg. Always blond your flour with butter for thickening cream gravies, vegetables or fricassees. For wlno or clear sauco uso cornstarch, dis solved in cold wator. Whon making lomonade, grnto tho rind from tho lemon, put It In a glass Jar, mixed with a llttlo sugar. It Is flnu for flavoring pud ding and cakes. Oranges may be used In thu samo way. Tako two vanilla beans, split them, cut them up and put In n bottle; fill bottlo with pure alco hol. Ready for uso In a few days. Save all your stale bread, dry In oven and uso for breading chops. If you discover In tlmo tnat your soup Is oversalted, add one or two ununited potatoes and your soup will bo all right, Doll all milk not to be used Im mediately, or it may get into that dangerous condition which Is known as "on the turn." "Turned" milk Is a dangerous drink in hot weather. To make use of tho wii.to of an ckk. mix It with a tablespoon of water and brush over fish, cro quettes or rissoles, instead of using a wholo egg. Tho yolk alono will not serve this purpose. To test the heat of fat for fry ing in a basket, drop in u piece. of bread and tako it out at onco. If It feels crisp the fat is hot enough. To make sauces a nlco consist ence uso 1 ounce of flour to pint of liquid. Hard-boiled eggs for salad or other dishes should be put Into boil ing water for 12 minutes and then Immediately put Into cold water. This prevents them turning black. OLD RELIABLE. Llbby COAL.
