Newspaper Page TextTIIE SUNDAY OREGOXIAN, PORTLAXD, MAY 13, 1917. 11 FOOD WORKERS BUSY Observe, Preserve, Conserve, Is Slogan for Housewives. SCHOOL MEETING DAYS SET Mr. Clayton is manager of the Spreck lea Interests in the Southern Califor nia metropolis. Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Toumans, of Stevenson, Wash., are registered at the Portland. Mrs. W. Huntington Cronln. of Pasa dena, is spending a few days in Port land and is registered at the Mult nomah. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Park Gilmore have returned to their home on Port land Heights for the Summer. Mrs. Gilmore's mother is returning from California next week and will be with them. Domestic Science Department Will Carry Canning and Other Pre paredness Methods Into the Kitchens of Homes. Observe, preserve, conserve! "With this expressive slogan the do mestic science department of the Port land public schools is to carry the food preparedness campaign right into your kitchen. The busy housewife is to be taught how to get the most food value out of the. ever-shrinking dollar and how to get the most benefit out of the food valne her dollar buys. the schoolhouse meetings inaugurated last week with such marked success will be continued through the coming week. The city has been districted so that meetings will be held in each sepa rate district and so that every woman will be able to attend at least one meet ing. The following schedule has been worked out for the present week: Tuesday. May 10. 2:30 P. M. At Arleta, including Hoffman; at Peninsula, including Portsmouth and Kenton; at Montavilla, 8 P. M.. Including Hudson and Glenhaven; at Olencoe. Including Sunnyslde, Mount Tabor and Laurel-hurst. Wednesday. May 16, 2:30- P. M. At Ock ley Green, including Jefferson: at Shattuck. (nohidlng' Ladd and Lincoln. Thursday. May 17. 2:30 P. 31. At James John, including North. East and Central; at Irvington, Including Alameda. Fernwood and Holladay; at Highland, Including Wood lawn, Kennedy and Vernon. Friday. May 18. 2:30 P. M. At Capitol HHL including Fulton Park and Multnomah; at Brooklyn, Including Stephens and. Clinton iCelly. Mlsa Grove Is In Charge. Miss Edna Groves, head of the do mestic science department of the schools, has general supervision of the campaign. She is assisted by her regu lar staff, by S. B. Hall, county agricul tural agent, and by the field forces of the Oregon Agricultural College and the United States Department of Agri culture working in this territory. At last week's meetings the talks centered principally on gardening, and while that subject will be uppermost in the preparations this week, some em phasis will be given to preserving and preparing food for domestic consump tion. Plain talks on every-day kitchen problems will be on the programme, too. The experts will demonstrate the comparative costs of food and the nutri tive value of each item. Then the sub stitutes in each class will be introduced so that the cost of preparing a meal can be materially reduced. Soar Milk for Cooking. One point that will be emphasized this week will be the availability of sour milk, buttermilk and skimmed milk for cooking purposes. The do mestic science experts declare these milks, which cost only 15 cents a gallon from the dairymen, can be used in near ly all cases where sweet milk now is used, excepting for drinking. The lecturers also will show nutri tlve value of the lower cuts of meat and how to make "a little meat go a long way." Women will be taught, also, how to use corn bread instead of white bread. They will be encouraged to buy "war hread," which is made from the whole wheat. Instead of white bread. Experiments In Progress. Experiments now are in progress on effective fruit driers that can be used in the homes. Several acceptable driers vhave been built to fit over the kitchen stove, and after a satisfactory model Is agreed upon, the patterns will be supplied to the manual training depart ment of the schools, and each boy can make one for his own home. On account of the hlgn price of sugar and the probable high cost of glass Jars It is believed that many housewives will have to preserve their fruits by drying them this year. Experts point out that dried fruits are more nutritious than the canned variety anyway. BUILDING HEARINGS SET Revision of Dates Annonnced by Commissioner tieck.

OF" COSfTEMPLATED IMPROVEMENT. . The voters of Horo, Or., will decide at a special election to be held next Saturday whether or not a bond issue for $20,000 is to be sold for financing the erection of an addition to the school building at that place. ' ' The proposed annex, as outlined in the plans drawn by the architect, Charles H. Burggraf, of Albany, will cover a ground area of 42x88 feet In front of the present building, and will extend two stories above the basement. The new building will be built of concrete or hollow tile, with white cement finish. The first and second floors will be divided Into recitation rooms, laboratories, a library anS the. principal's office. The manual train-, ing; and domestlo science departments, as well as the heating- plant and a community auditorium 86x85 teet in area will be provided in the basement.. v is made of, took on added grandeur I yesterday by mounting in retail price to $3.65 from 83.35. Ten-pound sacks of various meals, with wheat or other grains as their basis, made a general advance of ap proximately 10 per cent yesterday, all due to 13 wheat. Farina is now 95 cents, cracked wheat 95 cents, graham flour 90 cents, rye flour 80 cents, rye meal 80 cents, buckwheat 75 cents, hominy 60 cents, rolled oats 75 cents, corn meal 60 cents. Crown and pastry flour 85 cents, whole wheat 85 cents, oatmeal 75 cents and wheat hearts 55 cents. Cream of Wheat advanced from 87.20 to 89.25 per case, consisting of three dozen packages. Cleanliness is more expensive now than heretofore, and the Saturday bath night may be made bi-weekly with out reproach soon. Various familiar soaps aviated yesterday from 15 cents to 81.75 a case to new high records. Greases and fats needed for making explosives and war munitions is the cause assigned for this added cost to the consumer. It will also be more costly to cook one's food after the raw materials are purchased. If the expected advance in fuel prices develops. Slabwood is the next need of the household that is going higher. Portland companies plan advancea rates for slab in various lengths and quantities and the new prices are ex pected to be applied at any time now. Reasons for the change in fuel quota tions are the labor shortage and high wages. Fuel companies say their men must have more money in. order to live and that the cost of the product must, necessarily, be advanced to meet this demand. With soap prices higher and an extra burden laid upon the bath, it will only be a question of a little while until one can. with good grace, forego the shave as well as the bath, for it Is likely to cost more for a "onceover" than ever before. Boss barbers last Friday night agreed to charge 85 cents for a hair cut In stead of the former quarter, and at v. mntlne-. Mar 21. it is ex pected the cost of shaves will be raised from 15 to zo cents. GYCLISTS TO COMPETE DECORATIOX DAT PROGRAMME BE ING MADE CP. Emilia and who viewed the prisoner at the County Jail also failed to identify him as the man wanted. The prisoner says that he was In Italy at the time of the murder and that passports in his possession will establish such an alibi. FISH WASTE IS PROTESTED Bale Against Taking Small Stur geon Declared Objectionable. . John Bryant, for more than 87 years connected with the fish industry along the Columbia River, was a Portland" visitor yesterday from his home in Mayger, Or. .While here he declared that something ought to be done to prevent the waste of sturgeon that goes on daily among the fishermen of the Columbia. Because of the state law which says sturgeon less than four feet long can not be sold. It is necessary for the net men to throw the smaller sturgeon back into the river. In many cases, says Mr. Bryant, the fish have become tangled in the nets and have been killed, but that does not make It law ful for the fishermen to keep them. He says thousands of pounds of stur geon are wasted dally. j Phone your want ads to The Orego nlna, Mala 7070, A 6095, Ted Gilbert Will Try to Smaaa 24-Hour Motorerele Revard as Prelimi nary to Big Ran Meet. Motorcycle racers from all over the Northwest, at least 60 in number, will participate in th eighth annual motor cycle races at the Rose City Speedway Decoration day. May 30. Already 40 lo cal drivers have entered, with Seattle, Spokane, Tacoma, Salem and other points to be heard from.

Gilbert will com mence his run at 12 o'clock (noon) May 29, finishing at 12 o'clock (noon) May 30. two Hours before the races start. This will give time for the preliminary work of the speeders.

A permit for the motorcycle races and for Ted Gilbert's ride has been Issued by the National Motorcycle Racing As sociation through Northwest Represen tative Marks, of Portland. As alt the money taken in at the gate goes to the riders, every motorcycle house In Port land is behind the meet. All inde pendent riders have united with them and will make an endeavor to build up the Decoration day programme into the best one ever held. There will be many different kinds of races. The complete programme will be announced within a few days. Be cause all of the motorcycle firms are behind the movement, the rivalry in previous meets will be increased ten fold.
