Phone; Mornings, Malu 000 UOW'D TUINf If one had only to look out for the odd or unusual events or con ditions In the valley, one's time could- probably all be taken, and a compilation of the results would, no doubt, be very fascinating. Here 1& our very latest and It comes to our attention from Mrs. Mrs. Carrie B. Stelncamp, of Island City. Mrs. Stelncamp haa a most trlendly family cat Julia we think Is the name by which she has gone through all her years spent In Mrs. Stetncamp's home. Last week the owner'B attention was called to a vory strange proceeding on the part of the mother cat. She was currying a very young kitten, by the nape of the neck, as mother cats are wont to do- When she reached a cer tain shade tree In the yard, she started to climb It; when the kit ten began to slip from her grasp, the gave her head a fierce tola and rccured a firmer hold on the young animal. This performance was re peated until the old cat had trans ferred every baby kitten from tho original seat to a crotch In the selfsame tree. There she has her family In safety at least 16 feet above the ground. ,. What's your story? liuve New Daughter Mr. and Mrs. Lester G.

What Is not generally known Is that it may at the same time destroy egg pro duction If not carefully used, points out Mr. Buchanan, extension poul tiyman, Washington State college. Tho usual recommendations are to paint the top of the roost with Black Leaf 40 about an hour or two before the chickens go to roost. The fumes rise from the roost and kill the mltcs. These fumes will also make the hens sick If too much Is used. The amount to apply to a roost depends on the freedom, of air cir culation tn the house. If the house is closely ventilated with very little air movement, five drops of Black Leaf 40 to each Inch of roosting space will be enough. Where the house Is fairly open, a fine paint brush may be used and a strip not over one-eighth inch wide may be painted the full length of the roost. If the entire top of the roost Is painted or a heavy coat of Black Leaf 40 Is used, the hens are likely to be thrown into a moult. Using too heavv an aoollcatlon is not nniv waste of moey but U apt to. aeri- ousty cut down egg production.

I OREGON tAIRY C0UHC1L - CHAllE .V LUNCHES Luncheon is usually considered the most difficult meal to plan, yet It Is one where much variety is possible. The size and character of this meal depends on- the. activities of members of the family and upon the type oi breakfast provided. People who are physically-active will need a substan tial noon meal while those who are not or who ara' engaged in mental work will be better off with a light one. . Also, if -breakfast has been light a moderately heavy luncheon should be taken. The praotioe of too many people in taking a sandwich and a cup of coffee is- not wise as It may lead, to malnutrition and to exnaus tlon In the late afternoon. The main difficulty in planning the noon meal is to avoid, the. use of meat or in planning one which la not too much like dinner. Luncheon should supplement the other- two' meals. It should be kept simple, made up chief ly of the. energy foods (fats, sugars. Starches) and protective foods (milk, fruits and vegetables). Nourishing cream soups, light dishes made from left-overa. eggs or cheese, vegetables, salads and simple desserts are all suit- I able. Seasonable foods are always more economlcal,as well as being more appetizing. - Study Soil For Legumes TJRBANA, III., .May. 18 (V) Tests covering 250,000 acres of Slinois land have proved that common legumes such as red clover, sweet clover and alfalXa have different soil require ments and that all soils, can't grow; them equally successfully. j Mapping this land for acidity ana. phosphorus.says C.
