Iola Weber, president of the Riverdale Cooking club, is the first . girl in Malheur county to file her final report for 1922. The story of her work is as follows: ' "We organized a girls' cooking fab 00 the 16th of December, 1921. Out fesube, Mrs. Keuhl, was chosen for local leader. I have enjoyed my ' werk very much, for I have learned some things that I did not know be fore. On the last day of school we had aa exhibit. I received two blue rib bons as first prize and one jhite ribbon as third prize. I received prizes on all that I took. After the exhibit we ate the girls' cooking along with the mothers' dinner.' "I have enjoyed the ooking club so well that I am going to join the canning: club this summer. I only hope that we will like it as well as we did the cooking. I will do my best to get one started. The boys have a pig club and I think the girls ought to have something to do. "Iola Weber." I left my dad, his farm, his plow Because my calf became his cow. I left my dad, 'twas wrong of course But my pet colt became his horse. I left my dad to sow and reap, Because my lamb became his sheep. I left my dad and hit New York, Because my pig became his pork. The garden that I made to grow, Was his to soil and mine to hoe. And believe me I had to hoe, There was no riding down the row. The County Agent. CONGESTION OF COWS UDDER Comparatively 8lmpl Trouble Brought on by Improper FeedingNot Hard to Cure. Congestion of the udder Is In Itself comparatively simple trouble brought on by a combination of heavy feeding, consequent high condition, nd sluggish, lymphatic system. The former Is to be desired, but the latter Is not. Congestion will usnally yield readily to a preparatory dose of setts and laxative feted, together with an occasional bunoe dose of saltpetre In the drinking water. Exercise, juir ttcularjy previous to calving, hut after raiding as well. Is also beneficial. To prevent congestion of tbe udder developing luto Inflammation and gar get, avoid standing uow In dranghts and milk oftaa, nibbing the uddor gently with ettinphoratad olntineut aft er each milking. If there Is any In dication of more serious trouble de veloping, give tlio cow a strong laxa tive (Epsom salts ltt pounds, molas ses 1 cup, and ginger 1 ounce), fol lowed after purging reuses by dally ounce does of saltpetre, at Out same tlino bathing the udder with hot water for 10 to 20-mlnuto periods, Anally drying It and rubbing with cumphorat ed ointment and petrolatum.

There are several wuys of Improving dairy herd.' Elimination of low producers lncreasjis averago produc tion. It may decrease total produc tion, but usually Increases net profit. The experience of successful dairy men and of the Department of Agri culture has shown -this. Better feed ing of the cows already on the farm Increases average and total produc tion, and may Increase net profit. Use Of better sires Increases average as well as total production, and always increases net profit, It has been found. All dairy-herd Improvement due to better breeding tends to Increase profit t the producer and decrease cost to the consumer. It Is one of the ways by which the world may become richer without decreasing the prosperity of any Individual In it. Well-formed, registered bulls from proved sires and advanced-registry dams are usiiHlly fit to head even high producing dairy herds. When such bulls have proved sons and advanced- registry daughters, their value be comes exceedingly great because of the oertajiity that they will transmit in large measure to their offspring the Mgh-prnducliig qualities of their an cestors. So far as possible only such bulls should be chosen to head herds of selected, high-producing, registered dulry cuttle. In ordinary dairy prac tlce, however, the bull goes to th block before the production records of his daughters are available. In that way many excellent bulls every year ure lost to the dairy business. EVERYDAY FOODS AND DAINTY DISHES. Coffee Is a delicious flavor to use In various dishes.

The disricts which were decided upon are eight in number, being the upper Snake River district with headquarters at Idaho Falls, the Southeast Idaho district with head quarters a PraHcu. Tvrla Fails dis trict with headquarters at Twin1 Falls, the Nampa district with head quarters at Nampa, the Wilder dis trict with headsuarters at Wilder, the Ontario district (comprising nil of Malheur county and Washingtoi. county in Idaho) with headquarters at Ontario, the Ada county district with headquarters at Eagle, and the Owyhee district with headquarters at Homedale.

All lettuce and potato growers who have signed marketing agreements or will have done so prior to the hour of election will be entitled to one vote each. As there are about 150 members of the Union in the Ontario district, considerable interest will no doubt be taken in the selection of a representative, The conduct of the election will be in the hands of the following per sons who have been elected commun ity -chairmen in the different locals: On lettuce, G. W. Lattig, O. E. Car man, M. L. Parsons, G. W. Dean and Weiser representatives. On po tatoes, T. W. Claggett, W. L. Sehafer, Jake Russell, J L. Brown and Weiser representatives. L. R.

Three principal causes for poor corn yields are lack of clover or manure in the land the year preccd intr, use rt)f varieties too late for Willamette valley conditions, and fuilure to plant enough live seed to get a full stand. Acclimated seed planted 1 inches deep is best. O. A. C. Experiment Station. Potatoes to be kept for June planting in sections where storage conditions are not good should be treated with the regular corrosive sublimate solution and then spread out a thin layer in a shaded place. Protection from the wind and heat is necessary to prevent shriveling. O. A. C. Experiment Station. Lamb Feeding Profitable. I.amb feeding experiments con ducted for two seasons at the East ern Oregon branch station by Rob ert Withycombe, and reported by II. A. I.indgren, extension specialist in livestock, were not only highly pro fitable but they shed light on the problem of what constitutes a proper ration for fattening lambs. The summary of the results 'ns they apply to the feed ure as follows: 1. Alfalfa hay und barley consti tute a very satisfactory ration for fattening lambs. 2. Lambs fattened on alfalfa hay with and without silage mude satis factory gains and while the silage iiuTiased the gains slightly the ad v'ikhI ility of its use in the fattening rat inn must bo determined by the cist peV ton to produce it. Lambs In the feeding tests this year returned a clear profit of Ifd a head. The spread in prices be tween feeders and finished lumbs, however, was larger than normal, the price of lambs huving doubled the feeling timo. O. A. C. Experi ment Station.

Lives of 2500 Children at 8tak In Question Asked Oregon Man Last Summer. A question which is still kauntlng State Director J. J. Haudsuker of the Near East Relief, was put to him by Mrs. Jeanftte W. Emrlch when he was In Constantinople late last sum mer. Mrs. Emrlch Is well known In Oregon through her talks on condi tions in the Near East four years ago, when she spoke In the 1918 campaign. "Mrs. Emrlch is now In charge- of extensive Near East Relief work at Constantinople, her duties Including the management of several Industrial units, a number of soup-kitchens, and a reeding station for 6,000 children," said Mr. Handeaker. "She Is one of the most energetic, efficient and de voted workers oa the Near East staff, and has borne up wonderfully under a suti-nsston of heavy personal griefs. Hit husband died when heading a relief expedition In Aleppo shortly MRS. JEANETTE W. EMRICH after the signing of the armistice, and one of her little boys died suddenly Justune week after my first conversa tion with her. When I saw her, heV heart was heavy because of hei Inability to give tbe children updci her care enough food to keep them In normal health and strength. Iu great agony of soul Rho discussed with me whether she should continue feed ing her 6,000 children as she was do ing, or whether It would be bettei for th'olttiture of the race-to-double the allowances of food for each child and cut the number of children In halt The lntter plan, of course, would mean the abandonment of 2,500 helpless little boys and girls to the stark fate of starvation, and tho giving of theli food to the other 2,600 children, in order that the smaller group might be brought to normal maturity. With In a week after she asked me th'.t question, her own little boy wef stricken and died. One week after the lad was burled, I returned to Con stantinople, from the Interior, to fine Mrs. Emrlch again at her post, wltl the ante-room of her offlca filled witt widows and orphans to whom she wai giving careful sympathetic attention.'
