There will be a tremendous attend ance from the entire Northweex." said D. O. Lively, chairman of the general arrangements committee. "Only a bad bHsxard throughout the Mountain States, that would compel flockmasters to give their sheep the closost personal atten tion can. in my opinion, prevent a record attendance at the coming session. "One bt feature of the convention will be the conderatlon of extending the use of the big wool warehouse at Chicago established by the growers, where wool is stored by the producers until satis factory prt-es are forthcoming, when the clip fc disposed of. Woolgrowers sub scribed to the stock in this warehouse and in it tremendous quantities of the product are stored. It mas promoted In the effort to escape the exactions of the Boston dealers), who have h.id the wool growers at their mercy. By its ue It Is sought to transfer the wool market of the country from Boston to Chicago. How to make the plan thoroughly effica cious will be dtscusned at the approach ing meeting. Prertdent Gooding of the association was one of the originators of the plan and is much Interested In it." What the next tier ess will do to the tariff and how It will affct the sool grower Is probably the item of para mount Interest to be considered at the convention. The producer of wool has always had to wage a tireless fUht to hold his own. It Is contended, and this eternal vigilance miM be maintained if the sheep man Is to ke,p his hard-won rights. Those prominent in the coming convention suy the manufacturer has a strong Influence in .Vngress to l.ok oit for his Interest wheress the producer Is facing a constant fight to cut down ' the tariff on the raw product.

The very JIfe of the wool Industry la said to b at stake, for growers are fearful of what will be attrmpted In the way of revision of schedule K-" Although the asswlatlon originally planned a sheep show only In connection with the annual meeting, the goat men hare been brought In and will make a fine showing of blooded animals in con nection with the sheep. The mohair men rlrd that underhanded competition in the ssUe of t:lr product 1 destructive of their best Interests. They are seeking some way of effective combination where by they can bring about collective bargaining for their own good. This sub ject will receive a good deal of attention from them during the show and valuable action Is expected to be taken. The Idaho Woolgrowers Association i will meet at Bolew January I and J. At midnight January 4. a delegation of 100 i commissioned bv Boise will leave for Portland to capture next year conven tion of the National association. lt Lake City also wants the gathering and offers to build permanent headquarters for the organisation, with the purpose of securing the convention every year In future. Special cire will bring stockyards men i rrom tnicago. ineu ' y - Denver to the Portland convention, and as the annual garnering oi ine urri Woolgrowers" Association will be held In Portland Just prior to the big meeting. Portland will be full of livestock men during the first week of the new year. This will be the first convention of the association held in years to meet in a big city. For the last decade almost, the annual meeting has been held In the intermountaln country at considerable distance from the Coast centers or the Kastern cities. Plans are on foot. to mke the organisation more National In scope for It is felt It has become In sular In Its nature, always holding its conventions west of the Rocky Mountain, although more men numerically are en gaged in sheepraislng In the East than In the West. Kastern Men Awake. Eastern flocks are. of course, not so large as those west of the Rockies, but in the aggregate they represent great interests and it is held that the Western range breeders have captured the ma chinery of the association. AH attempts hitherto made to change this condition have been voted down by the Western ers. At the coming convention It will be decided whether it would not be bettef to hold the next annual meeting In Chi cago at the same time as the Interna tional Livestock Exposition. This plan will be promoted vigorously by the dele gations that will come from the East snd they have become so Interested in the subject that they will come in large numbers. The transportation committee of the National Woolgrowers' Association has made a favorable arrangement with the railroads. whereby exhibition stock brought to the show from points In Kan sas. Colorado. Nebraska. I'tah. Wyoming. Mario. Montana. Oregon. Washington snd California and from Missouri River points, on the basis of the regular tar iff from point of origin to Portland, and where there has been no change in own ership, will be returned free at own er's risk on the usual certificate from the secretary that the sheep have been on exhibition. Arrangements to the same effect are expected to be made for breeders east of these points. The rail roads will permit stock exhibited here to go back by way of Denver, where many blooded animals seen here will be en tered in the annual show there. Car shortage at lambing time will be a live topic to be brought up for discus sion and remedies for this condition are expected to be suggested. The experiment of Professor Witworth. of 1 O.ito. Csl.. In determining elec trical Influence on animals win open up an Interesting line of discussion at the convention. Professor Witworth sur rounded his breeding pens with electrical wires on his experimental farm near RoswelL N. M. He found that there was nearly double the usual number of lambs and that when like conditions were ap plied to hi woolgrowers. there waa a gain of about 20 per cent In the produc tion of fleece. Entertainment planned for the visit ing woolgrowers will be on a large scale. as the number of visitors will run well Into the thousands. The Commercial Club has sent out 15.000 invitations to attend and while it Is not expected that every one will be accepted, it Is thought at leaist 6000 will come. Many will bring their families and pass the holiday sea son In Portland. The entertainment committee, of which TR. S. Josselyn. president of the Portland Railway. Light A Power Company, la chairman, consists of 270 business men of the city. Each will take an active part In looking after visitors and seeing to it that all enjoy themselves while in the city. Governor-elect West will deliver an address of welcome to the shecpralsers at the first session. The afternoon of Wednesday, January 4. the first day, will be taken up by the opening of the sheep show, which will be held In the downstairs drill hall of the Armory, while the business sessions of the convention will be held In the assembly-room on the floor above. Later In the afternoon, a trolley ride about the city will be taken to give- the visitors a chance to view the Portland of today. Wednesday night will be given up to a reception and dance in the assembly hall of the Armory. A smoker and vaudeville performance at the Armory will be given Thursday night and on Friday night there will be a theater party. Saturday night will be devoted to "seeing Portland by gaslight. " some principal points of which will In clude the Elks Club, the Commercial Club and the Portland Press Club, which will keep open house for the occasion. A conference of stockyard men will be held at the Portland Union Stockyards and shop topics will be discussed. There will be a special feature of entertain ment offered in the exhibition of fancy sheep dogs. The feats of these canny animals in guarding their irresponsible flocks on the ranges will be shown. Prises are offered for thla exhibition. Valley Fleeces ExceL The Willamette Valley, known wherever wool is grown for Its fine product of long, silky fleeces, will make a One showing at the coming show. A recent editorial In the Shepherds' Journal calls attention to the fact that only in a few favored lo calities can the United dates raise as good wool as England, due to Its mild, moist climate, luxuriant pastures, heavy root crops snd lack of extreme Bummer heat. Ttie Willamette Valley takes sec ond place to no other region in this par ticular, being particularly adapted to early lamb raising and fleeces of splendid quality. The Shepherds' Journal aays places In the I'nited States where the English con ditions are equalled can be counted on the fingers of one hand. The Willamette Valley has been so favored In thia regard that It sheepgrowlng Industry has been developed to a high point and some of the best sheep in the show may be ex pected to be exhibited by breeders of this region. Special premiums are reaching the head quarters offices of the Mid-Winter Sheep Show by nearly every mall. The regular premium list, printed some time sgo and sent to breeders and growers all over the country by Secretary Mlnton, does not contain all of the prises offered, as the original list haa been greatly increased. The Denver tockyards has contributed 126 for special premiums and there are many minor awards to be made. The American Ramboulllet Association gives $300 In prises and pays for the services of one Judge; the American Hampsntre Association gives 1100. tn American Angora Goat Association gives $100 and valuable cup, the Oregon Pure CJCJ&j4 VKVS-Mir CiWW aj.. -i awwmiwl Bred Livestock Association gives three silver cups, the Oregon Woolgrowers' As sociation gives two $50 cups. John Young, president , of the Multnomah Mohair Mills, gives $J0 for the best floece of mo hair, to be Judged as follows: lustre, 30; fineness. 30; kemp. 30: weight. 10; the Brownsville Woolen Mills gives a suit of clothes for the best middle-wool sheep in the show, the Thomas Kay Woolen Mills gives one pair of blankets for the best flock of Merino sheep, the Pendleton Woolen Mills gives a special pair of blan kets for the best Individual exhibit. In addition, the regular premium list offers prizes galore for the various breeds of sheep and goats. L.lst of Ofrlcers. Officers of the National Woolgrowers' Association who will be in attendance at the coming convention are: President, Fred W. Gooding, Shoshone. Idaho; West ern vice-president. J. A.

MARSHMALLOW-MAKING EXPERTS GANDY LESSON Lilian Tingle Tells How to Form Glucose Sweetmeat Most Popular Among Lovers of Confections Several Recipes Given. BT LILIAN TINGLE. (CANDY SERIES HO. 5.) (Confections made with glucose.) FOR some reason the word "marsh mallow" has come to be one of those magic terms, like "cream." "salad," "dainty" and a few others that appear to exert a powerful psychological effect, especially upon the mind feminine. "Whipped gelatine" and "glucose," for example, as candy or dessert, would probably arouse no particular Interest; but describe it as "a dainty marshmallow cream" and see how many girls will ask for the recipe. Marshmallow recipes fall into three groups; (1) those consisting of whipped syrup, stiffened with dissolved gelatine, (2) those in which eggs are added to the syrup and gelatine. (3) those In which gum arable Is substituted for all or part of the gelatine. Coloring, flavoring and shape, as well as finish whether the marshmallow Is served up plain, glace, dipped or nut-coated, are details that personal taste and convenience will de cide, once the foundation is secured. Success in making marsh mallows, as in other candy-making depends, after pur ity of materials, upon attention to tem perature and activity in working or beat ing the ingredients. In making gelatine marshmallows, much labor can be aaved by having the gelatine cooled, though not cold, before beating begins. A proper "marshmallow beater" Is not usually in cluded In' the equipment of the home candy-maker, but a dover eggbeater for the early stages, and a wire cake whisk or a wooden spoon for the finish, will be found fairly satisfactory for small quan tities. Here are some typical recipes: Gelatine Marshmallows Dissolve com pletely one ounce gelatine in three-quarters cup water, soaking first in the cold wster and then heating over hot water. Boil or.s pound glucose to the hard ball stage 248 degrees Fahrenheit), work In one pound sifted confectioner's sugar, Knollin. Chicago, 111.; secretary, George S.

Flavor with vanilla, rose, faearmint or violet, according to taste: and leave uncolored or use a little pink, green or violet fruit paste to match your flavoring. Then beat thoroughly until stiff enough to Just pour smoothly. Pour into pans, dusted thickly with confectioners' sugar, or a mixture of confectioners' sugar and starch. Have the mixture three-quarters to one inch deep. When cool, cut by pressing down a large knife, or small round cutter: roll in sugar or sugar and starch, or finish by dipping, etc. Marshmallows No. 2 Two cups (one pound) sugar, one-half pound (usually about one-half cup) of heavy glucose, three-quarters cup water, one and one half ounces gelatine. Cook to 248 degrees Fahrenheit and proceed as above. "Uncooked" Marshmallows Three ounces gum arable dissolved In three quarters cup hot water. Strain. Add one-half pound confectioners' sugar and stir over the Are until nearly stiff. Do not boil. Remove from tire and beat, adding flavoring and coloring. If used. Beat gain until no longer sticky. Pour into a pan and cut as described above. Store in tin boxes. Marshmallows without Glucose Make a syrup with two cups sugar and two thirds cup water. Boil to the soft ball (238 degrees Fahrenheit). Pour it upon one-half box gelatine completely dis solved in two-thirds cup water. When cool, add flavoring and beat until stiff.. Finish as above, Marshmallows with . Eggs Several recipes of this kind have been published, comparatively recently, in these columns. One to two stiff-beaten egg-whites may be added to any of the above, when partly beaten. In some cases a slight increase In the amount of gelatine Is necessary, but this Is not usually true in cold weather. More flavoring will, how ever, be required than with the plainer confections. The egg makes them lighter and less sweet. When correspondents ask me for "a good nougat recipe" I always wonder whether they realize that "nougat", (final t silent) Is almost as general a term as "pie"; and I sometimes hesi tate In giving instructions, for it is Truth Travels Slowly A little over seven years ago the patents were issued on the Alveolar method of dentistry, the rights were acquired by the Rex Dental Co.. west of the Missouri River, and by the G. Gordon Martin Co. east. About 80,000 people in the United States are now wearing teeth replaced by this method. Less than one year ago the rights were disposed of across the oceans. At pres ent there is one or more Alveolar of fices in most of the - large cities of Great Britain, Europe and Japan. This alone speaks volumes for the system. Class -A Dentistry There are about 1800 persona in this city and ctate who really know what Class A dentistry means. We have served about 1800 patients here. They have paid for and are wearing- Rex Dental Co. work. We claim to do the highest class and most nearly perfect dentistry on earth. We SAY ON EARTH. There are many dentists who equal us on some one thing" his specialty. But there is no one man that we have ever seen or heard of who can approach us in every branch of dental science and skill. We employ only the most expert operator?, those known as dental gen iuses. WTiat we have learned from each of these 64 skilled men we have retained and maintained In all our 11 offices. Not many dentists will volun teer to impart it to you and many will deny it to you, but any dentist who knows our work (and most of them do). If asked, and honest, will bear us out In this claim. The writer has traveled Europe and America, attended many of the leading colleges and clinics on both continents, and visited and Inspected the work of a great many dentists who stand high in the profession, and I truthfully say to you that I have never seen a dentist nor .an association of dentists, whose work would corupare favorably with that of the Rex Dental Co. Unfortunately for the public (and fortunately for the dentists generally), 90 per cent of the people do not know what Class A, or even first-class den tistry from our standpoint means. Ninety-nine per cent of our patients will swear by us and our work. If we were to make a single failure it would be heralded through this city and other cities where we have offices by den tists like some great catastrophe. Unusual in Quality There is no satisfaction in looking less than altogether right at any time. disappointing to find yourself making hard nougat when you meant soft nou gat, or vice versa. Some nougats re quire honey; some glucose; some use eggs and some do not. Most of them, however, call for nuts or preserved fruits. The following is an easy kind for beginners: French Nougat Three cups sugar, 1 cup glucose, 1 cup water; 2 eggs. 1 cups nut meats preferably almonds and pistachios, though walnuts may be used. "Vanilla or other preferred fla voring. Boll the sugar, glucose and water to the hard ball (252 degrees F.). Beat until creamy. Add the stiff beat en egg whites and beat again, add fla voring, and coloring, if desired, then the nuts. Pour into a deep, straight sided pan, lined with paraffin paper, or. better still, with confectioners' wa fer sheets. The candy should be two inches deep, and smooth on top. Two colors can be made, if desired. If wafer paper is used, press this down smooth ly on the top as well. Let stand over night; turn out and cut in bars. If the eggs are very small, three egg whites may be needed. Chocolate Nougat May be made sim ilarly by adding a little cocoa and ex tra vanilla, or a few spoonfuls of melted chocolate, just before the egg whites. Another method is to boil tho candy to the soft ball; pour one cup on the beaten eggs, and beat them until the rest of the candy reaches the hard-ball stage, when the two are combined. This method Is often used in the making of "divinity" or "seafoam" candies, which are first cousins of French nougat, but usually are made with corn syrup In place of white glucose. It Is almost impossible to make prop erly "chewing" caramels without glu cose. Caramels seem to have lost some of their former popularity, which Is, from some points of view, hardly to be deplored, since they almost rival chew ing gum In their "uglyfying" and vul garizing effects. Venus herself could not chew gum or caramels, and retain either beauty or grace. If you must chew. In pity to your neighbors follow the method of the Crauford women with their oranges. However, here are some caramel re cipes: Vanilla Caramels Two cups sugar, 3-4 pound glucose, 2 level tablespoons cocoanut butter, or saltless real butter; 2 cups cream, fresh or canned. If con densed cream is used, or very thick fresh cream, part water may be sub stituted. Make a syrup with half the cream and the rest of the ingredients; boil slowly to the soft ball (238 degrees F.), then add the rest of the cream and cook to the hard ball (250 degrees F.).

We have treated many hundreds of the best peo ple of this city and state and If there are any who are not entirely satisfied we would like to know it. Our inter ests are mutual, our business has grown to be the largest high-class dentalbusl ness in the world. There must be a reason. 'Twas not by accident. Briefly, the alveolar method is this: If you have two or more teeth left in either jnw, we can supply all that you have lost with teeth as good, solid and sound as the best set of natural teeth, ever grown in any human being's mouth, and a whole lot more beautiful than nature's best product. Without re sorting to such makeshifts as partial plates and the unsanitary bridgework. Alveolar teeth are not only beautiful, but they are comfortable and duraable. We guarantee them to last a lifetime, where the longevity of bridgework is seldom ever longer than 5 or 6 years and generally a good deal less. It Is never guaranteed to last by any first clae dentist who is responsible and re Mahle, because all first-class dentists) will tell you that bridgework at best is doubtful. It is a painful operation, and gives trouble from the time It la put In the mouth until it haa to b taken out. In many cases where bridge work is impossible and in all casesl where it is possible, we can replace your missing teeth with perfect alveo lar teeth. The pain Incident to thiel work Is practically none; the expense Is the same as the best brldKework t but In satisfaction there is no com parison between the two. We have samples in our office t show at all times hundreds of patients here in our home city to refer to. In. fact, we would feel safe In referring to most every occupant of this, the Ab ington building, where our offices ara located. We have and are doing the dental work for most of them and their families, including elevator boys, jani tors and manager. Seems nice to have one's neighbors think well of him. Ex aminations and booklet-s on alveolar dentistrv are absolutely free. Remember that in addition to our specialty, alveolar dentistry and curing; pyorrhea loose teeth), we are experts in every branch of dentistry from the simple filling up.

For nut or fruit caramels, add finely chopped nuts or fruit before pouring, the caramels should be -lnch deep. For peanut butter caramels use 3 cups sugar, Vt cup glucose. cup pea nut butter and 1 cup cream. It usually does no harm to stir the caramels after the second lot of cream is put in.

With a Perfection Oil leater there need be no danger from draughts. Open the lower part of the window a little, put the Perfection Oil Heater in front of it, and the cold draught will be turned into a pleasant, healthful current of fresh air.
