TIM ES, W ILLAM INA, OREGON Thursday, October 5, 1933 Storing Vegetables Is Good Practice Thirteen ÏÏa s Ruth Anns Lucky Number Can Save the Home Garden Crops Quicker and Cheap er Than Canning. B y A. E. H utchln*. V e r ita b le SpeetatlM. H orticu ltu re D ivision. U n iversity Farm . St. P aul.— W XU Service. Many home-grown vegetable crop» can be stored successfully for a con siderable length of time. This is es pecially true If the home garden has been so planned as to provide the right products at the right time. Stor age pays in money saved, in satisfac tion, and in convenience. Where ap plicable, storage Is a quicker, easier, and cheaper process than canning or drying, and is the only method of keep ing certain vegetables. To Insure rea sonable success, however, storage must be properly done. Proper storage conditions for the various crops is Important and persons expecting to store vegetables should begin well in advance to prepare a place that will furnish the right con ditions. In general, vegetables may be divided Into four classes on the basis of their temperature, humidity, and air circulation requirements: Those requiring low tempera tures. moist conditions, with ample air circulation: celery, rhubarb, khol-rabi. leek, brussels sprouts, parsley, endive. 2. Those requiring low tempera tures. moist conditions, with little air circulation : potatoes, beets, carrots horseradish, parsnips, winter radish rutabagas, turnips, salsify, and cab bage. 3. Those requiring low tempera tures, dry conditions, and ample air circulation: onions and garlic. These should be stored In shallow trays or slatted crates. 4. Those requiring warmer temper atures, dry conditions, and ample air circulation: sweet potatoes, squashes, and pumpkins. Hard water Is bad for household use because it scratches the furniture. \ , 1 1SS Ruth Ann Moore of Brlm- 1 field. 111., drew the luckiest 13 of hpr life when she clicked the turnstile of A Century of Progress, the Chicago World's fair, as the thirteen millionth visitor.

Salt, Other Chemicals Very Toxic to Swine To the veterinarian It is well known that salt and certain other chemicals are very toxic to swine under certain conditions. Some of these conditions can be traced to unscientific com pounds, especially when force fed. Moreover, such preparations are rare ly necessary, especially where pigs have been farrowed In clean quarters, allowed free range of pasture and fed a well-balanced ration. It Is well known that a sudden change of feed, especially one of an irritating na ture following the administration of serum and virus will often produce a ærious or fatal acute enteritis. In certain sections of the country there are no doubt poisonous plants that cause considerable trouble, and in some cases a high mortality. Rickets, anthritis, paralysis and sim ilar conditions, can be prevented by proper feeding and care, and can be corrected by the administration of cal cium and iodine in proper amounts. Paralysis of breeding sows is thought to be caused by an improper ration, and can usually be cured by the ad ministration of iodine in some suitable form. So-called milk fever in sows af fects plethoric animals, especially If the quarters permit of little exercise and easy access to feed. Violet Rays Detect Seeds Violet rays are now used to protect the American farmer, but the rays are used on grass seeds— not the farmer The rays, used in an almost uncanny test, make Italian ryegrass, sometimes sold as English ryegrass, reveal its true Identity. When the seeds are germinated on filter paper and put in a darkened chamber and the short rays played upon them, the paper on which the roots of the Italian variety lie at once betray the seed by giving off a distinct, ghostlike glow. Even more mystifying, the apparently iden tical seeds of the English variety, when tested side by side with the Ital ian, fail to react. Some seeds of the two varieties are otherwise indistin guishable. but the English variety us ually brings a higher price. The dis covery that short rays would make the filter paper fluoresce on which th» roots of certain plants grow was made In Germany, and the Department of Agriculture has adopted It to protec» American farmers In buying seed.

BURGESS JERRY RESUMES WORK C*OR a couple of days Jerry Musk- " rat left his snug room In the bank only long enough to get a bite to eat. and he was gone only a little while then, for he had little appetite. The rest of the time he spent curled up in his bed ' t soft dr” grass, occasionally lick ing the wounds made by the great cruel claws of Hooty the OwL Luckily, you know, it Is the very best treat ment little people in fur can give their wounds. It keeps them clean, and wounds kept perfectly clean heal rap idly. But wliile he lay there Jerry did a lot of thinking. Strange to say he didn't feel the hurt of the wounds In his body half as much as he did the hurt of the wound of his pride. ‘‘Serves me Just right.’’ he kept saying over and over. “Serves me Just right. I'm too old to be caught napping like that. The idea of me living to be ns old as 1 am and then being caught by Hooty the O w l! 1 hope no one saw I t I should be al most too mortified to live If my frlepds knew of this.

If any of them should know the truth they would think 1 have gone Into my sec ond childhood. They certainly would It all comes of dreaming. Dreaming Is al right in the right place, but it is all wrong in the wrong place. Well, what is past is past It Is all over now and I ’m still allvt. And I ’ve still got that house to finish.” Two days later or. to ae exact, two nights later. Jerry was back at his new bouse. He was still sore and rather stiff, but he didn’t let that in-' terfere with his work. No slree, he didn’t let that Interfere with his work. Jerry found out a long time ago that the easiest way of forgetting troubles Is by working. The busier you are. the less time there is for you to think about yourself. So Jerry went to work again with might and main, but he didn’t forget to keep a sharp watch for danger. The part of Jerry's house that he had to build now was the part which would be above water, and which I P A P A K N C W S-I O L IV E your life you need not think S Live of as living. you breathe, and as you sleep and wake. Give much because you have a way of giving. And not for conscience or for vir tue's sake. Love not so much expecting loves re turning. Love without counting what the loved should pay. For one may love without the loved one learning. Not for reward— because you have the way. Deviled Chops. Select loin chops of young mutton, wipe clean with a damp cloth. Gash the meat lightly on both sides. Mix four tablespoonfuls of olive, two table spoonfuls of lemon Jnlce. one-eighth teaspoonful of mustard and a few grains of cayenne. Spread on the chops on both sides and let stand one-half hour. Broil quick); In broil ing oven on hot pan and season well with salt and pepper. Serve w ith : Spiced Prunes. Soak one-half pound of prunes over night and cook In the same water un til tender. Add three whole cloves, one-fourth of a cupful of vinegar, three tablespoon fills of brown sugar, one-half teaspoonful of cinnamon and simmer until the mixture Is all ab sorbed by the prunes. Serve hot. So live your life that worth Is not a d u ty; It Is a way you have, though no one knows. I doubt If roses think about their beauty,. Each Is a rose because it Is a rose I doubt If many heavens we shall win us Obeying rnles not otherwise we would; Unless we have a way of goodness in us I doubt If God will call us very good. ©. 1913. W estern N ew spaper Union. Gypsies Gypsies are known all the world over as a wandering people. In many languages the word “gypsy” has be come synonymous with “vagabond," “tramp.” In the Soviet union a gypsy alphabet has been created. There are gypsy newspapers, a gypsy theater, scores of gypsy schools where children are taught In their native langunge. The gypsies have settled down, they till the soil, work In factories and Joint ly with the oth<-r 1(18 nationalities of the U. S. 8. R. take an active part In the creation of a new life. So live your Ilfs you have a way of virtue; The kindly natured are the only kind. You must be kind to even those who hurt you Because you have the way in heart and mind. There Is too much parading and pur suing ; No virtue shouts, its voice Is still and small.

G raphic G olf OVERLAPPING GRIP AIDS WRIST ACTION OLFERS starting out to learn the game can aid their cause Im G mensely by adopting a grip that will aid the proper hand and wrist action particularly at the top of the awing. By far the greater percentage of golf ers find this Ideal In the overlapping grip. In this grip the left thumb Is down the right side of the shaft, the club somewhat In the palm and the last three fingers of the left hand fur nishing a large part of the grip. The little finger of the right overlaps the first finger of the left s o that the great er pnrt of the clasp with the right hand Is In the first three fingers. This allows plenty of hnnd and wrist ac tion. Armour and Jones, whose gripe are Illustrated above, both use this grip as do numerous other member« of the first flight. ©. 1911.

YOUNG MUTTON DISHES Replant Windbreaks Farm windbreaks In the prairie re gions have suffered severely from heavy cuttings for fuel wood during the last year, according to reports to the United States forest service. State officials report that on some farms as much as ?100 worth of wood was re moved, relieving the farmer of buying other fuel. But wholesale cutting has left many farms and farm build ings exposed to the winds, and more planting will be needed to replace the trees lost from pioneer plantings. Some farmers are raising their own seedlings placing It In the casserole. Season well, add one clove of garlic, one onion sliced, one-eighth teaspoonful of pepper, two teaspoonfuls of salt, two cupfuls of canned corn and two cupfuls of string benns. Add two cup fuls of boiling water and cook for one to two hours In a moderate oven until the meat Is tender. The corn and beans being cooked may be added at the last of the cooking. V UTTON In à ! England Is such a M highly prized meat that It seems strange that we have so little appre ciation of it. Lamb chops are al ways well liked as Is a stuffed leg of lamb or a crown roast, yet there are so many good meat dishes which may be prepared from the young mut ton that It should not be slighted.
