It is well nigh imperative that such be done if a market is to be fonnd at all. while the govern ment regulations make life mis erable for the fellow who hap pens to load a car with too many culls therein. Ed. I. Boring has iust learned this to his sor row, for he loaded a car Satur dav and then had to resort the entire car for the government inspector wouldn't pass it and the railroads wouia nor. pics up the ear without this little for mality.

PORTLAND - OREGON market! for Beaverton's prod-1 net and pays from the interests of tie town, for we now have the starch factory to furnish a profitable market for the culls, while the better price and less freight for the marketable pota toes will more than take care of the cost of sorting. - The immediate case which nromnts these remarks was that of a car of potatoes bought for W. S. Hearst & Co. of Portland, in this locality by Mr. Boring and turned down by the State Inspector because they "were be low grade. They were not infer ior potatoes. They simply were lacking in uniformity and could not be classed in any one grade. This brings up the question of gradine. The Public Service Commission's order for the grading of potatoes became ef fective the 15th of last month. It is comprehensive and defines three grades of potatoes of mar ketable quality and the seed variety. Every grower and shipper of potatoes should thoroughly fa miliarize himself with these grades and be able to take ad vantage of the favorable loca tion and excellent shippmg fa cilities afforded here and Geod Things f r Beavertea ., y ' We don't know ot why in the great-nation-wide campaign for prohibition that a man of such wonderful eloquence and international prominence as Lewis Albert Banks should be assigned to Beaverton but we do know that we are going to show our appreciation by packing the high school auditorium Sunday afternoon Feb. 17, to its utmost capacity. Charles Parkhurst says him : "He is fearless as a reformer, having been shot down by the infuriated saloonist, mobbed by the anti-Chinese rioters al ways willing to imperil his life in defense of the oppresed." He is a man for the hour in the church for the times. KEEDE3 EEF.3S Europe's Meat Supply Mutt Con From America.

But In England where 2,400.000 acres of pasture lands hare been turn ed Into grain field the cattle herds are decreasing rapidly. One of the apparently la the declining i price seal adopted by the i English as follows : For September, $17.76 per 100 pounds ; October, fl7J ; Tytvember and December. $16.08 ; Jan uary, $14.40. The effect of these prices was to drive beef animals on the mar ket as soon as possible. In France the number of cattle as well as the Quality hare shown an enormous decline daring the war. Where France had 14.807.000 head of cattle in 1913, she now has only 12, 341,900, a decrease of 16.6 per cent. And France la today producing only one gallon of milk compared to two and one-half gallons before the war. Denmark and Holland have been forced to sacrifice dairy herds for beef because of the lack of necessary feed. Close study of the European meat situation has convinced the Food Ad ministration that the future problem of America Uea largely in the produc tion of meat producing animals and dairy products rather than In the pro duction of cereals for export when the war will have ceased.

Here is proof that such is the effort to raise, $250 for the starving Armenian and Syrians.

Now the easiest and best way out of it when you see them at your door is to make up your mind to give liberally as yon have prospered and take just as little of their time as possible, for the longer they have to talk for it the more they expect of you.

It la true that the lnajiau-1 man dujb b tutu ui urettu lur uian an American can, but It is poorer bread, and the British government Is paying 2Uu,OUO,000 a year toward the coat of it. Ai the grain grown In Great Brit ain is taken over by the government at an arbitrary price and the imported wheat purchased on the markets at the prevailing market price. This U turned over to the mills by the govern ment at a price that allows the adul terated war bread loaf of lour pounds to sell at 18 cents, the two pound loaf at 9 cents and the one pound loaf at o cents. In France, under conditions some what similar, but with a larger ex traction, the four pound loaf sells for 16 cents. W.E.

In the meatless menn there is a fer tile field fur developing new and nour ishing dishes, according to E. H. Kile, writing in tbe Hotel Gasette, who be lieves that tbe present shortage of meat and fats will not end with the coming of peace, but may grow mre acute and continue for five or six years, tbus making it worth while in develop menus of grain, vegetables and fish on a more or less permanent basis. Meal can be replaced by cereal and other protein foods, or may be served in vry small portions as a fla voring for other food. In making up meatless menus this author finds our American Creole and southern cuisine broad field for investigation. Beaverton Auto Truck ERNEST ENDS, Proprietor. Daily trips to and from Portland.
