With the new equipment, competent service and viands cooked as custo mers desire, as well as the ice cream and cool drinks kept cool and fresh, patrons are on the increase. Bill Staab.' fish pond is a source of much wonder to many tourists who stop in Maupin. IlarUly a day passes but that a number of strangers visit the pond to look at the thou sands of brook trout which make .that body of water their habitat. The false work ha. been taken down from the new bridge anc workmen, who are engaged in smoothing up the upper concrete work, wi!' soon be through. With thr timbers away from the structure Mnupin's new bridge stands out like a million dollars and is admired bj hundreds of strangers each day. Muupin's traveling library is wel. patronized. Not only do young peo ple pret their rending matter from the shelves of the library but many older ones scan the lists of new ar rivals and weeldy get sufficient reading to ierve them througout the week. Mrs. Frank Dyer, librarian, is kept busy checking out books each day the library is open. A young man, riding a motor bike, nearly frightened one of Harve Mor ns' horses to death Wednesday night on the White River grade. The mo torist had stopped on the grade to remedy a defect of hfc bike when Harve came along. The putt-putt of the bike frightened the horse and it turned around in the traces and started down hill. Harve, of course, : also took fright and had to solicit tthe assistance of the bikest to , ItfriHfrVlf 01 SMlf fl I A. - started toward home. It has been said there are ''many men of many minds," and it applies to women a3 well. Recently a wo man stopped in Maupin for dinner. nr remarks all had to do with the roughness of Oregon road3, she say ing she had never before ridden over such bad highways. At another table aat another party, al.o from California, The woman of the party was loud in praise of our roads and said there were none in ihe southern state to compare with ihora. It was only a matter of diges tion, we take it. Last week we called attention to the deplorable condition of the mar ket road leading to Wapinitia. Since then we have made a trip over a portion of the road and our ex perience at that time resembled one we had down in Arkansaw (get the 'saw") many years ago. Then we billed up on chills and fever with the accompanying , hakes but they were not a marker to the shakes we felt vhile riding to the Lloyd Woodside .anch in a Ford truck. We invite he members of the county court -o make a Ford ride over the entire ength of that road.

Feed silage to the dairy herd im mediately after milking. It may fla vor the milk if given before or dur ing milking. The timeworn theory that "sheep having a covering of wool over their faces are the best," is now being ex ploded. Studies made by the U. S. Department of Agriculture show that ewes of the Rambouillet hreeA that are free from heavy face covering yield the heaviest fleeces scoured and unscoured.

How often have you heard someone break up a pleasant party with those words? Of course, there has to be a dinner to satisfy hungry appetites, but there are meals which can be prepared in a minimum of time and they are the one3 to plan when you expect to be out the whole afternoon. One of the secrets of time saving is to use canned meats or fish. Vien na sausage, roast beef, corned beef, veal loaf, salmon, tuna fish and others come in cans. Canned vege tables and fruits, too, will save many minutes of laborious peeling and cooking. Their use means that the main ingredients of your menu are, already prepared. A Half-Hoar Menu The following menu can be prt. pared easily in half an hour and is filling enough for even the hungriest little boy: Tuna Fish au Gratin, Buttered Peas, Boiled Potatoes. Hot Biscuit and Jell, Tomato and Let-1 pre-con- Melt two tea- tuce Salad, Fruit Compote, Cookies'. The peas arc heated in the juice from the can, and then seasoned with butter, pepper and salt. By slicing the potatoes thin and boil ing them in a tijrhtly covered ves sel they will cook in ten or fifteen minutes. And liisciiiu, of course, take only a tew minutes to pare. To prepare the fish, shred tents of a large can of tuna, two tablespoon butter, stir in tablesnoons flour, nne-riohth spoon paprika, one-eighth teaspoon pepper and one-half teaspoon salt.
