f ' -iHE OREGON STATESMAN, SALEM, OREGON SATURDAY MORNING, JULY m, 1920 Bpatm's Suttirday Marked it BSE fill DE Said to Offer Larger Profits Than Potatoes Grown ! There YAKIMA. Onion production in the Yakima valley is increasing in about the same proportion as po tato production has in recent years. It is a crop which offers in the average season a greater profit than potato growing. It produces a greater tonnage to the acre and the price generally aver age better, although not every year. From 1915 to 1921 the produc tion in the Yakima valley annual ly ranged from 150 to 200 carlots. Since that time there has been a marked Increase in tonnage. The shipments in 1922 were 300 cars: in 1923, 445 cars; in 1924, 208 cars; and in 1925, 481 cars. The light production in 1924 was due to a lesser acreage devoted to the .crop. The 1923 crop proved to he of poor quality and the price to the growers for the bulk, of the crop was poor, hence the fol lowing spring the planting was light. The prospective tonnage this y.?ar has been placed at 600 to xoo cars or a vastly greater pro duction than ever known in the valley. However, the stand is poor and the estimate has there fore bepn lowered to 4 00 to COO cars. The stand is so poor that the production is reduced at least one-third. Some fields showed Hurh a light stand that they were plowed up and the ground devoted to other crops ns in the Yaki- rgone a change ears.

CONTRACTS ARE LET E Booking Orders Are General Among Shippers During Past Few Days Booking of orders for Elberta peaches has been quite general among the shippers in northwest cities in the past days. One firm has sold 20 cars at 50 cents a box and several other concerns have made sizable bookings. These sales are 10 days or two weeks ahead of the movement. Al though the price is lower than is to the liking of the growers, the business 'done is regaVded by the shippers as an auspicious start. Several shippers expressed themselves as optimistic concern ing the Elherta deal. It was their opinion that there is a good chance for an advance in view of the fact that the outside trade has been disposed to purchase in ad vance and has secured the fruit at a figure which will allow of free consumption. Inquiry has come from points in Canada as far away as Toronto. Eastern peaches are barred from Canada, but those from the state of Washington may enter. It is important that the words, "grown in the state of Washington" go on the custom declarations and the custom invoices on shipments to Canada, it was pointed out by one of the dealers. Slappy peaches are in good de mand at 75 cents to 85 cents a box f. o. b. There is no marked change in the pear market in the Yakima valley. The quotation of $1.25 a box for precooled stuff is now general. A few days ago the quo tation was SI. 35 a box. The Chi cago market improved somewhat yesterday. Bartletts pears sold at $2.35 to $2.85 a box. The going quotation on Italian prunes is 4 5 cents a box. Shipping has begun in Park Heights. Shipping in apricots in straight carlots is practically over. It was estimated that about 12 cars re main. It is expected that this fruit will go into mixed cars. 1 ... i I General Markets I DRAIN PORTLAND. July :tO. (By Ao.itp(l Press.)

Yakima stock is go ing at $2.50 and $2.75 and The Dalles shipments at $2.00. There is an improvement ! in the peach trade due to eale bf stocks for canning purposes. News For The Housewife 1. When you ice a cake, if icing begins to harden before you have it spread on. place pan of icing in double boiler or pan of hot water, or if cooked too long add a little hot water or milk and beat again. 2. With a can opener cut out the bottom of an old teakettle and use the top part to cover flat-irons on the stove. Or invert an old pan without cutting out the bottom, and use in the same way. They heat in one-half length of time and stay warm. This is equally useful in heating fireless cooker disks, especially on an oil stove. 3. At this season when there i danger of eggs not being good, they may be tested by holding them in front of an electrict light, or flash light. When the egg is fresh it apears quite clear before the light, if dark and cloudy you may be sure the egg is not good. 4. When making cookies, if you haven't enough shortening, finish filling t"ie cup with peanut butter. This uives the cookies a delicious nutty flavor. 5. Always cook apples in earth en or granite vessels, and use sil ver or wooden spoons for stirring as the acidity of the apples acts quickly on metal and the taste of the apple is changed. 6. When preparing radishes for a garnish of meats or salads, sel ect round ones and remove leaves and tip ends and wash. Scrape radishes a little to remove some of the red color. Cut from top nearly to stem end in thin parrallel slices, then cut thin slices at right angles to slices already cut. Place in cold water and let stand until open to suggest chrysanthe mums. What Starchy Foods to Eat in oummer Some people immediately, on the arrival of hot weather, decide to discard all heating as well as all hot dishes from the menu and they try to satisfy their appetites and answer their thirst by iced drinks, sandwiches, ice creams and fruits. After a time the stom ach rebels, and not infrequently stomach cramps are apparent. One or two hot dishes daily, iu fact one at each meal, are needed These dishes can be hot and still not be heating foods. Coffee or hot cereal for breakfast, some hot vegetable and meat ; at dinner, combined with sufficient other dishes including salads, bread and butter, can not necessarily leave one steaming after a meal. There ate certain foods such as macaroni, spaghetti or corn on the cob. that are not only served to the threshers during the sum mer, but are found on hotel menus and in private homes as well. Cer tainly they all are purveyors of storch but we like them and eat them. Hitp often appears in some form or other and potatoes and bread regularly appease the appetites of thousands. Ocashionally. say once a week, hot cooked, rolled oats or oatmeal with fruit, just hits the spot as you say and yrhere is the child who will refuse a piece of cake because it contains starch or the man who will turn down a piece of his favorite pie. no mat ter what the temperature regis ters. We all do need some starchy foods in summer though we must reduce the amount because we need less of these heating foods while the weather is warm and he cause many of us use up less energy. Value of Raw Vege tables in the Diet In cooking vegetables for the children, remember they must not be cooked too long, since some of the vitamines are affecled and de stroyed by the heat. The best way to prepare the raw vegetables when making soup is to grate them into the soup just before serving and in, this way all the vitamine content Isi preserved. Raw carrots or turnips may b'e grated and served ovei" scalloped dishes or added, to meat sauce or ia salad dressings. The make tb Wishes attractive to the ieye as w as delicious to eat.

Wej need these fruit juices for !their health-giving qualities. j Oranges and lemons when froz en together make a most refresh ing dessert, using the juice of one lemon to that of three oranges with(iugar to taste. One must re member in making frozen desserts to, not oversweeten them and spoil the natural fruit flavor. The food value may be in creased by using gelatine or add ing stiffly beaten egg whites when the mixture is frozen to the con sistency of mush.

Squaw Hash Squaw hash-is delicious, wheth er made with fresh or canned corn on a camp trip. It is a particular ly fine way of preparing green corn which is a little too tough to be eaten from the coh, as so frequently happens toward the end of t;ie corn season.

Then add eight ears of fresh corn cut from the cob. or two cans of corn, together with one green pep per washed, seeded and chopped fine. Add salt, if necessary, and continue cooking until it browns.

The attorney gene ral based his conclusion on eijiht per cent of the votes cast for three candidates for two s;-ats on the supreme 'tench at the' last gene ral election, after dividing the ag gregate by two. Justice Belt held in his opinion that signatures of legal voters e uivalent to eight per cent of the votes cast for the candidate re reiving the largest vote for the of fice of justice of the supreme court at the last general election vere sufficient to warrant the sec retary of state in placing the hydro electric measure on the ballot. Based on the vote of 159,490 re ceived by Justice Belt at the last general electiou, 12.759 sigualured were held sufficient to refer the hydro-electric measure. "When an act has a doubtful or ambiguous meaning," read the opinion, "it is the duty of the court to adopt that construction iiich will make t operative and tr carry out, so far as possible, the intention of the people who enacted it.

The hast-i selected, however, will at least tend to clarify and gi,e oper ative effect to the law under con siderition." Ju3ice Burnett, in his dissent ing opinion, upheld the contention of McCamant and Thompson, Portland attorneys, v. ho alleged that siiatures equivalent to eight per cent of the votes cast for all the candidates for justices of the supreme Uourt at the last general election vere necessary to place tne hydro-electric measure on the ballot. In another opinion the court up held the ititiative petitions cir culated in Aackson county recent ly looking to a vote at the general election in November in the ques tion of moving the court house from Jacksonville to Medfrd. The county clerk of Jackson coun ty refused to accept the petitions on the ground that they did not contain siguatures of qualified voters of the county equal in num ber to at least three-fifths of all the votes cast in the county at the preceding elcciion. Suit then.wus filed in the state supreme court by E. D. Briggs to compel the county clerk to accept the petitions and place the meas ure on the balloi at the November election. Chief Justice M Bride, in writ ing the opinion, held that the statute requiring signatures of voters equal to t lu ee-fif ths of the votes cast at (he preceding elec tion was obsolete, and that the signatures of 15 per cent of the qualified voters was sufficient to refer a county measure. The court held against O. W. Taylor who sought to restrain Multnomah county from issuing or selling permanent road construc tion bonds in the amount of $2, r,.)0,OOU. it was conn nd-?d by ih plaintiff in this case that the elec tion was called without authority of law in that the question of vot ing on the issuance of bonds was submitted to the voters at a prim ary gather than a general election. Justici- Bean, in his opinion, held that a primary nominating election in Oregon is a general election. The court also ruled against Palmer L,. Fales. who filed pro ceedings in mandamus to compel Multnomah county officials to fol low the law in selling bonds issued for road construction. It was al leged by the plaintiff that steps had been taken to sell $750,000 of the bonds, with the first ma turity date fixed six years in the future.

Harley J. SI usher, sheriff of Clatsop county, in an opinion by Justice Brown, was ordered to proceed and collect delinquent state income taxes for the year 1923, in compliance with warrants issued by the slate tax commis sion. Sheriff SI usher had refused to collect these taxes on grounds that the state income tax law was unconstitutional and had been re pealed. It was said that Sheriff Slusher filed the case to determine bis legal rights in that he might protect himself and bondsmen against financial loss. The suit was filed by the state tax commission. The court reverse1 and remand ed the suit brought by A. McMil lan, sole trader, to recover goods alleged to have been sold and de livered to James B. Oickover.
