If you plan to add light to your home soon with the purchase of a new lamp, remember that floor, table, and other lamps and lamp shades all have ceiling prices. You should get the same kind of lump or shade today for the same price you paid In March, 1942. In mnnv cases, however, lamps and shades have been selling at higher prices. This contributes to in flation, so when you go shopping, always check the celling price of what you buy, and never pay more.

Shoep & Schulze Tire Service point values of so many jneat items this month, and put "back on the ration list some which had been ration free. The answer is simple there just wasn't enough meat available to take care of the demand at the lower point values. Until the first of April, at least, our fighting men and women will get one out of every four pounds of meat, and this amount will come out of supplies which have n't came up to early estimates. The result is that civilians will be getting five to six pounds less meat per person than . this time last year. You'll be glad to know that our more than five million troops overseas are getting plenty of fruits and vegetables, too. Na turally, since we can't send them fresh produce, the canned variety is being shipped fourty-one per cent of the 1944-4o pack in fact. The higher point values on peach es, pears and pineapple this month are designed to see that your family gets its fair share of what's left here at home. The point values of canned tomatoes also were raised, to slow down buying so that our dwindling supply will last until the new pack comes in. Our supply of canned apples and applesauce, however, is larger than last year. So it was possible to lower the point values on them. A No. 2 can of applesauce, for example, now requires 10 blue points. With the prospect of less canned fruits and vegetables, victory gardens will be more important than ever this year. So dig out your seed catalogue and make plans for spading the ground for lyour garden. It's a good idea to ihave everything ready seed, fer tilizers, and tools before the sea json opens, so you won't have to i waste good gardening weather do- each for the kitchen knives.

Do you fool headachy nnd upset duo to poorly digested food? To fed cheerful and happy agn.n your food must bo digested properly.

Vannier, Orcbardist, of Hood River, Oregon "Looking back at the time when we first had electricity that was in 1907 I can't help making comparisons between then and now. Our farm was one of the first, and at the time one of the few, to have electricity. Now I understand there are more than 13,000 farms on PP&L lines alone. What a difference it's made to both farming and marketing, as profit able uses for electricity have been de veloped year after year! Just this last year we put in an elec trically operated stationary spray plant that will enable the two of us to spray the entire 35 acres of trees by ourselves if we have to. With this plant we don't have to haul the spray into the orchard all we have to do is turn the switch, go into the orchard, and start spraying. It saves the work of two men. "Right now we're figuring on an elec tric irrigation pump, to lift water out of the creek to add to the supply we get from the canal. The boys at the PP&L office helped us with plans for the spray plant, and right along they give us sug gestions that help us get the most from the electricity we use to do our farm work." 'ESP1'- "" The 35 acres of apple, pear and cherry orchard operated by W. E. Vannier and his brother, Frank Vannier, is located about iy2 miles south of Hood River, in the Pine Grove dis trict, and is one of the longest-established orchards in the valley. Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Vannier, parents of the brothers, bought the first ten acres when they moved to the Hood River Valley from the Dakotas in 1904. In 1910 they bought an additional ten acres, and in 1918 the final 15 acres. The VannicrS used coal oil lamps until 1907, when a line was built past their place by the Hood River Electric Light, Power Ac Water Company, which subsequently became part of the PP&L system. They installed the first electrically-operated domestic water sys tem in the valley, had one of the first electric washing machines, and one of the first elec tric flatirons.
