Science has discovered hens lay best when exposed directly to the sun's ultra-violet rays which they receive in ample quantity during summer. In fall and winter, how ever, little or none reaches them, for violet rays cannot penetrate through ordinary glass into the hen house. Therefore, science presents the hens with special windows of a translucent material that does transmit the health-giving rays. And presto the deed is done. The new "windows" are strongly con structed over a wire base, can be bought by the foot, and installed without expert help. To the many farm women who have experimented long with egg laying formulas, this knowledge that concentrated sunlight Is all a good hen needs is most encourag ing. Paper Towels for Kitchen A roll of paper toweling should be in every kitchen, for it has many economical uses, such as wiping out pans, cleaning the sink, cleaning stove, etc. use It also to give a quick final polish to glassware.

Simple Salads Best Salads need not be elaborate in order to be delicious and whole some. In fact, a number of the most satisfying salads are the sim plest Iced lettuce hearts with Roquefort or Russian dressing, ap ple and celery salad, shredded cab bage, green pepper and onion with plain cream dressing, left-over veg etables molded In lemon-flavored gelatin all these are easy to pre pare and all are favorites with the family. An Easy Remembrance A birthday card from the Sun day school, a greeting card of 6ym pathy from the congregational or ganizations in time of illness or af fliction, a welcome to new members all help to keep up the spirit of friendliness and service and do not make too great a demand upon the time of pastor and committee mem bers. GHipprii (Eommrnt WHY THE RECLAMMATION SERVICE STARTS NO NEW PROJECTS. October SUNSET It is strange how partisan politi cal bias warps the vision and mis guides the pen. The Oregon Jour nal, under ordinary circumstances an ably edited paper whose staff can calmly and factually appraise the difficulties and problems con fronting the 'Nation and the North west, has suddenly remembered that its complexion is Democratic and that a campaign Is under way. So It proceeds to pan Dr. Hubert Work, former Secretary of the Interior and Hoover's campaign manager, accusing him of hostility to the Northwest because he, according to the Oregon Journal, consistently opposed the starting of new North- Look Again! i:..

TUM-A-LUM LUMBER COMPANY Yards at Heppner, Lexington and lone western Irrigation projects. We have panned Dr. Work's In dian Bureau for several years and shall continue to pan It until it has been completely reorganized, but it seems to us that the usually sin cere Journal in its Democratic zeal has stooped pretty low when it twists well known facts for the sake of questioning political gain. The Journal bases its attack on the as sertion that Reclamation Service projects in the Northwest "are rap idly paying themselves out and have proven their ability to provide homes and a splendid living for families on them." Therefore, ac cording to the Journal, Dr. Work through his opposition to more new projects in the Northwest has dem onstrated that he Ib a Republican viper because he Is deliberately blocking the progress of the North west which has regularly voted Re publican since the first wood-burning locomotive came to Portland. For messed-up reasoning this polit ical editorial takes the leather-up holstered wedding cake. The facts are that a commission of eminent engineers and econom ists under leadership of Dr. Elwood Mead, asked to take charge of the Reclamation Service and pull ite shaky projects out of the hole, rec ommended the writing off of almost thirty million dollars invested by the nation In these projects. The commission also recommended that the payments due the nation from the settlers be extended and that these payments be varied from year to year on the basis of average pro duction and crop prices per acre. In addition It recommended that no new projects be Btarted until the existing ones were completed and until expert investigation had prov en each proposed new project to be really feasible, with a reasonable chance of success for the settlers. It also suggested that on these new projects the State should undertake by contract the colonization of the land, the financing of the settlers and their expert agricultural guidance. The policy worked out by Dr. Mead and recommended by the commission is beginning to pull the existing Reclamation Service pro jects out of the hole. Several new projects in the State of Oregon have been approved, but Oregon has shown no inclination to assume the burden of seeking, financing and guiding necessary settlers. Why? Because the State of Oregon has on its hand and on its treasury the weight of several irrigation enter prises on which the settlers made such a "splendid living" districts which "paid themselves out so rap idly" with Irish dividends that the State had to meet the overdue bond interest The Oregon Journal, being an ably edited paper, knows these con ditions, but it just couldn't resist the temptation to deliver a nasty political below-the-belt blow. Which is one reason why the general pub lic declines to pay much attention to the political editorials in any par tisan paper. Poor politics and poor journalism, we calls it WHAT IS CHRISTIANITY? How many can give a definite an swer to that question? It needs to be answered and will be at the Church of Christ on Sunday morn ing. The morning topic will be, "Who Is My Neighbor?"
