PINTO OR SPECKLED BEANS Calling attention to beans as a substitute for meat, the United States Food Administration men lions the comparative cheapness and excellence of the variety kno.wn as the Pinto or Speckled bean, which-is grown in tremen dous quantities in Colorado, Kansas and New -Mexico, and to a lesser extent in practically all parts of the United States. Every where these colored beans sell at, figures substantially under .those for white beans, -and ac cording to experts they contain about five per cent less water than the familiar navy beans, which 'are now in the luxury class. j Incidentally, since .the Pinto Bean is now being used exten sively in both the Army and Nar- vy, the less nutritious and more expensive white, bean is in dang er of losing its distinction as the "navy" bean.

COMMUNITY COOPERATION our search for "bargains" too farfroin homo. Wo don't want to forget that the trade we take away .from our own community helps to build up soino other community' or city from tho growth and prosperity of which we do not ourselves get any benefit; If your homo town merchants ask you a higher prico than you aro asked to pay outside itjsn't any more than fair to discuss the. situation with your home store keepers, giving them a chance to explain why their prices are higher than thoso you can buy .for elsewhere . There may be some reason that will bo worth while learning about some dif ficulty which you con help straighten out to your advan tage as well as their's if the mat ter is brought up for frank dis cussion. You and your family and your neighbors like to trade at an up-to-date store. If such a store can be made possible by copper ation between you, and your neighbors and your local merch ants if a stronger, pull-together feeling -can be established in your community then that com munity will be progressive, will forge ahead towards better streets, better roads, better schools, better places o.f amuse ment, better and more influen tial churches, better social and business advantages for your self and your young folks. It is this spirit of community cooper ation that almost invariably re sults in good for all concerned if it is kept alive and actively participated in by one and all. Oregon Farmer.
