Scientific cookery demands as reliable
materials and as scientific manipula
tion as scientific chemistry.
The skill of the best cooks often
comes to naught because ' they are de
ceived in the quality of materials used.
Let us furnish
SPICES, CREAM OF TARTAR,
BAKING SODA, ETC.

"Carrying It Home" Popular.
. Portland, Ore., Aug. 20. (United
Press) It's the popular even the
fashionable thing for Mrs. Hi So
ciety to carry home her groceries to
day. More than that, it's the patriotic
thing to do.
Portland stores, backed by the
state defense council, have started a
movement to induce housewives to
carry home their smnller purchases.
As the first step in this direction, the
merchants today put into practice the j
one-delivery-a-day system, which will
free a large number of men for other
work.
The government is urging cities j
