L South may have its male "Voice
of the South" and the Southwest
its "Hired Hand" for radio an

claims a young woman who works
for Unele Sam as one of its lead
ing broadcasters.
She is- Miss- Nannie. B. Cox. chieT
clerk of the livestock, wool and
meats division. Agricultural De
partment. Her daily broadcasting
of livestock market reports to
growers over a wide territory has
made her name well known.
Among cattle med from congested
market centers to remote sheep
herders' shacks of the mountain
range.
She takes the air at least three
times a-day. From a telephone in
her. office her voice is carried to
the s.tudio .of station WHB and
radiocast to the wide open spaces.
She "mikes" well, they sayf and
growers of half a dozen states or
more are known to have heard

Once in a while a stockman
hundreds of miles away will drop
Into the local office for a visit
and invariably asks to see the ra

-
When a housewife buys her
daily bread lit tie does she realize,
that Uncle Sam had a hand in the
dough.
He did, though, in an indirect
way, for he maintains an experi
mental milling and baking labora
tory in the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics to test the qualities of
wheat, rye and other grains. -and
their relationship with the physi
cal and other factors used'in the
grading of grain.
Studies are made of new varie
ties pt wheat with a view- to de
termining their superior milling
and baking qualities. About 2.r.
samples are tested each week.
About thrw-qtiarters of the bread
produced in the laboratory ulti
mately finds its way to a family
table. Bread also ha been baked
for various official functions in
the bureau.
The latest report on the -Jests
showed that hard red spring
Wheat averaged highest in volume
of loaf and was one of the two
elasses showing the largest yield
of bran.
Durum wheat showed the high
est average results in test weight
per bushel of dockage-free Wheat,
protein content, -yield of shoris,
water absorption of flour, weight
of loaf, and ash content of flour.
Hard red winter wheat averag
ed highest in yield of flour and in
color and texture of bread, while
soft red winter was one of two
classes averaging highest in yield
of bran, and also averaged second
in yield of flour.
White wheat did not excel in
any factor, although its best
points were its high color and
low ash content: of flour.

evolved. The company is buying
prunes from all over the prune
growing area in Oregon. I was
told that Mr. Beers, the field rep
resentative, had . bought 12,00
pounds from the growers rffound
Salem yesterday. That quantity
of prunes seems a lot to me. but
I was assured that it would, run
the plant only a short time, as
the demand, for PRUNPORT was
so great in the east. I want to
say right here that I got some real
ideas about the east's liking for
prunes during my visit to the
plant.
Cooking the Prunes
Mr. Mullineaux next showed me
the workings of the big glass
lined pressure cooker through
which the -prunes pass in the pro
cess. This machine was produced
by special arrangement with the
manufacturers at Euclid. Ohio,
and was made according to the
specifications as prepared by the
Major ruit Products company
Chemist. It is literally covered,
with safety appliances, gauges.,
Valves, thermometers, etc.. which
are necessary to the control of the
process.
You will be interested to learn
something of the precaution the
Major Fruit Products company
Workers take to protect the drink
ing public from imperfect and im
pure products.
i Product Is Clean
The bottles before being filled
with delicious PRUNPORT are
first washed thoroughly in a vat
of hot caustic lye solution. This
removes all, the impurities, and
.germs and destroys all sunsfances
that may be detrimental to the
drink or consumer. Then : the
bottle goes into a it of fresh
Bull Run water where they are
soaked until the caustic is com
pletely removed. After this the'
bottles are - thoroughly rinsed up

to give the' cfmsumer -a more per- 1

dergoes, after bottling, pasteuri
zation of PRUNPORT, which Is
exposed to 1 7 f ' degrees - for 1 5
minutes, assures the public ef a
fruit drink which is utterly clean
and entirely free of bacterial or
germ contamination. It seemed
to me that this is a mighty fine
example of cleanliness, and I was
told that the great consumption
of PRUNPORT indicates the ap-
preciation of consumers for a gen
uinely clean beverage. I was Jin-pressed-
that the manufacturers
are making a very sincere effort
I to produce for the thirsty public
a good , wholesome, healthful
drink in PIU'NPORT, which is
an excellent beverage for univer
sal consumption.
- Is Wonderful Drink
PRUNPORT is a wonderful
drink. It is produced from prune
carefully selected, sorted and pro
cessed under a secret formula4
which was inn result of nearly
five years of continued effort. The
Major -Fruit U-roducts. company i-
the living, throbbing and nttitoate
monument to the unselfish vdevo
tion of man to the welfare of men.
The financing of this great po
tojili.il enterprise so necessary to
the very life of the second great
industry of the Pacific northwest
was largely through the '. efforts
of the prune growers themselves,
with the assistance of several
business men who were early to
recognize the necessity of imme
diate assistance to the prune in
dustry. We, each of us, have eeu
hearing about the problems of the
prune growers, but we read the
reports with but mild interest. It
seemed detached from our every
day problems, so we turned from
the report of prunes unsold to
more merry news. "
Is a Booster
But I left the plant of the Ma
jor Fruit Products company with
a firm resolution" to never show
lack of interest in the marketing
problems of the prune growers. I
am going to help and help all the
time.
PRUNPORT. the greatest - bev
erage, to my mind, that we can
ever throw our support, is within
the reach of every' man, woman
and child. It sells at retail for
only 5c per bottle. The case of
24 bottles will be delivered to
your home anywhere in the city
for $1. It is wonderful in its
fragrance, a delight in its taste;
it ia perfectly ,clean. the perfect
thirst quencher and last, but not
by any manner' least, it is made
of prunes, the healthiest fruit
man's. wants could ever desire.
