Richards and Bales Broth ers contracted their wool to Miles Lee of Baker, for 55 cents per pound last Spring, wool to be delivered at Condon, Oregon. For some time they could not hear from their contractors so they began to hink the five thou sand dollars paid down on the wool at the time was forfeited. Mr. Rich ards informed us that Mr. Lee took the wool according to contract at the contract price, though he was rather late in doing so. The entire clip of wool sold by Mr. Richards and Bales Brothers was in the neighborhood of 50,000 pounds. Spray Courier. DAIRY HINTS CAMPAIGN FOR BETTER SIRES Owner of Purebred Animals Take Generous Pride in Progress of the Movement Every rtniil received by the bureau of animal industry, United States de partment of agriculture, shows the readiness with which farmers and ani mal breeders in general are co-operating In currying out the "Better Sires Better Snx-k" cnmpulin. The letters show that the owners of purebred sires take a generous and proper pride In the progress of the campaign in thfelr community. One letter recently received contained the following iidvertluent clipped from a county newspaper published in Penn sylvania : "Don't breed to scrubs fetch your big cows to Victory farms service free. "For milk: Breed to De Kol Pietje Charles Dickens. Sire: Woodcrest t'nna I'ietje. Dam: Daisy Le Polke De Kol III (Ilolstein-Frieslun). "For beef: Bre.d to Cardlngton Bob Bill Sykes.

"Will pay $25 for five-day-old heifer calves lued by either one of these sires when delivered at Victory farms. " 1 Owner." The owner of this farm explains by letter that he also maintains purebred oars and Hint the service of these ani mals Is free to neighboring farms. This Is but one Instance In which the owner of better sires has offered their advantages to his neighbors free of charge. The fact that the owner of the sires Is willing to buy the heifer -tilves bred from bis purebred bulls Is an Indication of the Increased profits that may be realized by Oie owner of a scrub or grade herd when he has put a purebred sire at Its head. It ahowt that the value of the progeny of a f pnrel.rv.) -!re mil a grade dam Is so well :a!Vhl In the minds of the hest informed among breeders that they are willing to pay a much higher rate for this progeny than for a calf with grade parents in both the sirv and the dam. It further illustrates the rapidity of Improvement In a herd which has a purebred sire at Its head. FLAVOR OF BIG IMPORTANCE If in Making Butter Desirable Quality l Spoiled Price on Market Mutt Be Reduced. Butter is valued over lard and tal low mainly for the reason that It has a more desirable flavor. If, In the making and handling of butter, this desirable quality Is spoiled, the price of the product on the general market must be reduced accordingly. The consumer eats butter mainly as a rel ish, and If It has a bad flavor it ceases to be a desirable relish.

Several American commissions have recently made an Investigation Into the aircraft conditions In different parts of the world, and they agree that this country has the opportunity to lead the world In civilian aeronautical ac tivities and as a market for aircraft in 1920. It was the Joint opinion of these commissions that the United States is ahead of all other countries In number of planes actually ordered and bought for civilian purposes, num ber of aerial transportation lines be ing organized, actual dally pertorm ance of the aerial mall service, and volume of mall carried, and possibili ties for the use of aircraft for com mercial purposes, and that the fact that the post office has proved that military planes can be converted Into mall carriers makes possible the utili zation of service planes to meet the im mediate demand which manufacturers are unable to meet. Destroyed the Illusion. Into the restaurant she came with the air of a princess, a truly regal fig ure, clnd In brown from top to toe and looking as If she had Just visited a Parisian modiste and a beauty parlor a perfectly groomed, handsome wom an. There was an air of refinement about her. She looked expensively turned out In the simple, deceptive way. She seated herself at a table and there were little exclamations of ad miration from other diners near. A waitress approached; every one hushed to listen to the beautiful crea ture speak. In a high-pitched, East side voice Rhe ordered: "Bring me a onion omlette." It was brought, and she played it goifishly speaking, with her knife. New York Evening Post. Youthful Cattle Raiser. Little Edwin, age seven, lives on a farm in Grant county. It has been for some time his father's custom to sell calves to a neighboring farmer when they were about three days old. The other day JIttle Edwin was In structed to go to the home of the neighbor, and tell him that a calf would be ready for him the following day, and that it was a "bull calf." With an air of great Importance the young farmer delivered the following message: "My father told me to tell you that our bull has a new calf, and you can have It tomorrow I" Indlan opoils News. JOKE ON BOTH "CHAPPIES" Some Particulars About Their English Raiment With Which They Were Not Acquainted. It Isn't exactly their swell brand of golf that entitles them to be so de cidedly English In their apparel, but they've a "fawncy" for the English raiment Jitot the same. "How do you like my English cap, old chapr one of them asked. "It' a turtle, old dear, but It Isn't quite so English as mine," the other said. "Oh, mine Is, quite." "No, not nearly." And so they compared caps. But when they looked at the names of the makers It wee discovered by the "de cidedly English" follower that his cap had been made In New York. The other bore a London label and, of course, yon understand, old chap, It was quite a "lawf." And the funny feature of It all Is that the New York cap was made to appeal to the English trade, while the London cap was designed to catch the fancy of the Yank. DO NOT THROW AWAY PARTLY STALE BREAD Different Ways of Making It Quite Appetizing. Good Plan to Cut Off What Is Needi' at Meal and Place Slices in Hot Oven Croutons Are Made of Odds and Ends. Toasting Is the most common method for inakiiu' stale or partly- stale bread attractive, but It Is by no means the only one. If partly stale bread Is put Into a very hot oven for a few minutes It grows softer, prob ably because the heat tends to drive the water from the crust back Into the crumb, food specialists of the United States department of agriculture say. Such warmed-over bread is not as soft and springy as fresh, but most persons find it very appetizing. A good plan, therefore, when breud has lost Its freslmesss. is to cut off what will be needed at a meal and place the slices In a hot oven for a few minutes Just before serving. In this way bread can be used on the table which would or dinarily be considered too stale. "Twice-baked bread," which is cut bread placed in the wanning'oven or In a pun en the back of the stove and allowed to dry out slowly until It Is slightly brown and crisp throughout, offers still another way of making stale bread attractive. If desired, this twice-baked bread mav be crushed with a rolling-pin and used like the roady-to-eat breakfast cereats. In some localities this dish has long been known under the name of rusks. The little fried tubes of bread called croutons, which are served with soup, mav be made of odds und ends of bread. To save time, breud simply broken Into small pieces may be fried either In deep fat or in a pan (sauteed) and used for the same purpose. Some times bread crumbs fried In a pan are used as a seasoning or sauce for meat. French cooks frequently put pieces of stale breail In soups just long enough before serving for them to soften ; the v ell-known one, "crust In the pot," (croute au pot). Is simply a thin soup with bread In It. There are many ways of using stale bread In cooking. Almost every good cookbook gives directions for prepar ing soft and dry crumbs for use In scalloped dishes, bread puddings, etc. The soft parts of bread may be used In place 7if flour or cornstarch for thickening soups, sauces, gravies, stewed tomatoes (either fresh or canned), etc. Bakers often use stale bread and dried, finely ground cake In place of i art of the flour. In making fancy breads, cakes and cookies. The housekeeper can often avoid waste by using them in this way in griddlecakcs, cakes, cookies, etc. MOPS FOR POLISHED FLOORS One May Ee Made of Old Stocking or Any Discarded Woolen or Flannelette Material.

Sir William Treloar, In his ricently published hook, "A Lord Mayor's Diary," points out that the chief mag istrate of the city of London Is chosen In quite a different manner from that adopted by nny other municipality in the kingdom, remarks London An swers. Instead of being elected by the mem bers of the corporation, or council, who may, and often do, for political party reasons, choose someone who has never done suit or' services to the town, London's lord mayor can be chosen only from those who have served an apprenticeship of some yearg to the corporation. He must first be elected an alder man by the ratepayers of his ward. M Aouni SI he House m COMING SOON : Watch for Dates and accepted and sworn In by the court of aldermen ; then he must have served the office of sheriff, to which position he has to be elected by the liverymen, and afterward approved by the sovereign. Th. n, and not till then, Is he eligible to ask the liverymen to elect him as lord mayor; the court of aldermen aft erward aaln having the power to re fuse him, the approval of the sovereign being also again necessary before he can take office. RESEMBLE ACRES OF LILIES Visitor's Beautiful Description of the American Cemeteries In Franc Exquisite In Uniformity. Though American relatives usually waut to plant flowers on the graves of their sous or brothers In the Amer ican army cemeteries In France, an army ruling forbidding this has been adhered to. The cemeteries, a uni form stretch of green grass with white crosses, look like "acres of white lil ies," according to Miss Elsie Goddard, a Wellesley graduate who has returned to this country after having had super vision of the Y. W. C, A. rest huts built for the comfort of relatives vis iting the graves In four of the Ameri can cemeteries in Fmnee. "At first every one wants to plant flowers on the grave they love," says Miss God dard, "but they soon see that the army ruling keeps the cemeteries most beaiK tlful and impressive because of the uniformity. Cut flowers can be placed on graves and tlowers cuu be planted In the flower beds near by, but not on the graves. The French people who are eager to decorate the graves In some pnrts are often surprised at this ruling, but our cemeteries, as cared for, are wonderfully Impressive. Aft ter visiting them few Americans want to tnke the bodies of their boys home, though they have been determined to do It before they came." The Y, W. C. A. and Bed Cross combine In main taining rest huts at Romngne, Bony Kelleau Woods and Fere-en-Tardenols. "No matter how prepared a mother and fullier are for what they expect to see, the first sight of the field of American graves overwhelms them" says Miss Goddard.
