I 1 t! for tt .bulancu nrt SCHOOL LUXCHES A housewife who has to put up three lunches every morning for three children insists that this is the very hardest thing about keep ing house. It seems to her as if housework would be a pleasure were it not for those lunches. Doubtless the thing that makes them hardest is that they must be prepared in the early morning when there usually is enough to do simp ly in preparing the breakfast To be sure, some housewives simplify the task by putting them up the night before, insisting that if the sandwiches are wrapped in waxed paper and pla.ced in the refrigerator they will be quite fresh the next day. Even though you do not actually make the sandwiches the night be fore you may very easily get some of the things ready. It is well to get into the habit when you first go down to prepare breakfast to take as much butter as you think you will need for the sandwiches and set it out so that it will be warm enough to spread easily when you want it Bread should be freshly cut, buttered and filled at once and then wrapped securely in waxed paper. F.gg Is Helpful A wide variety of sandwiches may be made from egg. One of the easi est is made by letting the eggs boil very hard then peeling and cutting up fine and then spreading on but tered slices of bread. Some people like a fried-egg sandwich. Egg with mayonnaise is delicious. Waxed paper is so inexpensive that you have little reason not to be fairly generous with it It is a good plan to place each sandwich in a separate piece of waxed paper and other things, like cake and deviled eggs, should likewise each have their individual piece of waxed paper.

In Washington, the wet city of Seattle defeated a well known dry and nominated a wet This should suggest to the drys that it is no time to go to sleep. The gain of one wet congressman from Washington will encourage the wets greatly. Dr. H. G. C. Hallock, who recent ly returned to Rochester, New York, after an absence of twelve years in China, says that the newspapers in China assert that drunks are con stantly seen on the streets in Amer ica, that every high school boy and girl has a flask of whiskey, and that young people are commonly seen under the influence of liquor, that the Jaws are ignored and that con ditions are worse than before pro hibition came. He returned to Am erica in April, and he says he has not seen a single drunkard, that he has seen no sign of whiskey flasks among the high school students, and that he had not seen tipsy young men in the streets. He no ticed that women walked the streets at night seemingly without any fear of being molested by drunken men, as was common in the days of the saloon. He observed that the working men went home in au tomobiles with their pay envelopes in their pockets instead of cashing them at the nearest bar. Louis J. Taber, Master of the Na tional Grange, says that the aver age per capita consumption of milk in 1917 was 754.8 pounds. Ten years later it had increased to 967.3 pounds, indicating that the people were substituting milk for beer. To produce this increase in milk con sumed required more grain than of place. This is not a horse age, 1 50 per cent below the average in as he says, but a 40-horse power Ontario, Canada. In many instan- motor age, and motors "don't know the way home." STATE MARKET NEWS SEYMOUR JONES, State Market Agent Wheat as Stork Feed. From a practical livestock-feeding point of view, wheat is about equal to corn pound for pound, as a food for farm animals, says the U. S. agricultural department Wheat contains 2H percent more protein and a little more carbohydrates, and 2'i per cent less fat than corn. The greater amount of carbohydrates In wheat is used by animals either as fuel or energy or is stored as fat. Moreover, wheat has a very small quantity of crude fiber, hence ani mals digest it readily. Wheat, like corn, is not a complete food. It does not have sufficient lime, phos phorous and potash, nor all the pro tein subdivisions which are neces sary for animals' development and their duties. In feeding wheat, as well as in feeding corn, it is im portant to feed also those products which will furnish the portion of nutritive material that the grain lacks. Onion Growers Suffering. The Gervais Star declares that the onion growers are facing ruin. Growers have been offering the fin est crop they have grown at 55 cents per sack and no takers. The stor age place is filled and many car loads are yet in the fields and suf fering from the rain. The Star, which is published near the Lake Labish onion fields, says: "For the past three years barely expenses have been made, it is said and when it is known that it costs $150 or more per acre to produce the on ions, that onion land sells for $1000 an acre and that taxes and rental takes another $150 or more, it can be seen the plight the onion grower is facing." was used by all the brewers and dis- Canadian Wheat Crop Decreases. ces it is almost impossible to plow and where cultivation has been ac complished there is not enough moisture to sprout the seed. Due also to dry weather the corn and root crops are suffering severely. Many farmers are tilling their silos early because the corn is drying up and depreciating in food value. Depression is World Wide. Twelve per cent reduction in the amount of creamery butter manu factured in July in this country and 9 per cent loss in the total produc tion of milk for manufacture, with European production and stocks about the same as last year, would ordinarily mean strong demand and better prices for dairy products, but there is depression in this as in other productive industry, and it is chargeable, says the U. S. depart ment, to unsatisfactory economic conditions on both sides of the At lantic. Farm Help Is Plentiful. "We have a surplus of help," is the announcement coming through the "Seasonal Employment Commis sion" of this state, from Portland, Corvallis, ' Grcsham, McMinnville, Salem, Eugene, The Dalles, La Grande, Medford, Ashland and Klamath Falls. Newberg could use a few more pickers of evergreen blackberries and Hood River could use a few experienced pear and ap ple packers, but has plenty common laborers. Strikes Bottom and Rebounds. Wheat in the Chicago market made the deepest dive yesterday it has made in 25 years, quotations being down to 74li cents for Sep tember delivery, 11 Vi for December and 81 for March. After hitting bottom there was a slight rebound, but not enough to indicate any per manent improvement. Weakness in Liverpool, which was sharply lower, brought. scattered liquidation and weak prices into the market HUMORETTES Professor: "You can realize the great distance of this star from the earth when you consider that the light took several thousands . of years to reach the earth."

The teachers and pupils of the high and grade school are having a vacation this week on account of some work being done on the fur nace. Mr. Gibbs from the Peoples Hardware store at Heppner has charge of the work. Miss L. Torre and Miss Lucile Farrens spent Saturday shopping in Heppner. Rev. and Mrs. B. Stanley Moore were out from Heppner Friday and organized Sunday school. Quite a number of high school pupils intend to take Bible study under Mr, Moore, which will give them an other high school credit Mr. and Mrs. Lotus Robison re ceived a message of the death of Mr. Robison's uncle, Carol Robison, in Idaho. The cause of his death was not learned, Mrs. Margaret Elder of Ritter was visiting with Mrs. Effle Stev ens Saturday.

Fan Miller is moving his sheep to his creek ranch today. He has had them on the George Hayden ranch during the summer, Relvle Adams has purchased the livery stable building. He intend! to use the lumber for constructing a sheep shed on his Rock creek ranch. Among people who were trans acting business in Heppner Satur day were Mrs. B. H. Adams and daughter Kate, Mr. and Mrs. G. A, T.se Containers The young business girl, who car ies a mid-day snack to save the cost or buying luncheon at a res taurant or cafeteria, usually wants to have her lunch package well dis guised and as small as possible. Fortunately most school children have no such prejudices and there is no reason why you should not provide a lunch box that is large enough to hold a variety of good things in convenient containers. To protect the luncheon and to keep the things from crushing it i3 a good plan to line the box or bas ket with a substantial cotton or linen lunch napkin, providing a pa per napkin or two every day for ac tual use. men as part ot your packing equipment you should buy some waxed paper cups with close ly fitting pasteboard tops in which to put soft foods, such as salad mixtures, cut-up fruit, rice-pudding or something of the sort. In cold weather even gelatine preparations such as jellied tomato or buillon or jellied fruit desserts may be in cluded in the lunch when these tightly closed containers are used. Without much trouble one may contrive always to have some ad dition to the school luncheon in the way of a surprise. This may consist of a few candies wrapped in a piece of waxed paper, a few salted or shelled nuts, a lollypop, some milk chocolate or even an unexpected five cent piece with a little note to explain that it is to be spent for some specially liked candy or bak er's cake on the way home from school. Always if possible the school luncheon should contain some sort of fruit an apple, a banana, an orange, a pear, a bunch of grapes. Chocolate Cream Grate three squares of bitter choc olate and mix with two cups of cream, half a cup of sugar, and the well beaten yolks of six eggs. Cook in a double boiler until smooth and thick, stirring constantly, then add a package or gelatine which has been soaked and dissolved. Take from the fire and when cool, but not set, fold in a cup of cream which has been whipped solid. Add a few drops of vanilla. Mould, chill, and serve with chipped cream. tillers before prohibition. No fig ures are available as to the in creased number of men required in the dairy business, but in the light of the above figures, it looks like a silly argument made by some of the textile workers for the repeal of the Volstead Act because, as they claim, 100,000 men might find work in breweries, and possibly 2,000,000 be employed in one way or another in the liquor business. Even if these figures are correct, the dairy busi ness would lose and little children would cry for milk. Frank E. Gannett, publisher of the Brooklyn Eagle, one of the out standing dailies not only of New York, but of the whole Union, and also publisher of sixteen other daily papers, in a recent interview gave his reasons for favoring the eigh teenth amendment He knows the liquor business from first hand information. When a boy he worked as an assistant to a bar keeper. He has had ample opportunity to observe the workings of the liquor interests all through the years. He says that he has seen liquor make a lot of good men bad, but never saw it make any bad men better. He wonders where the memories of the older people have gone. There are bootleggers and speakeasies un der our present laws; they are mild in comparison with the corruption of the old saloon days. The liquor interests dominated the politics of the cities and extended its insidious influence to the state governments and to congress. He asserts that the prohibition laws of today are far better enforc ed than the regulation laws of a generation ago. Eleven years of prohibition have furnished such marked contrasts to the old saloon conditions that even the saloon's best friends have deserted it. As newspaper man, he is working The Farmers' Sun of Toronto says that due to the long-continued drouth the acreage Sown to fall wheat this year will crop almost si Registered purebred Hampshire bucks for sale. J. C. Swift, Hepp ner 27-30p. for prohibition because he believes that prohibition is working for society. The liquor interests have nothing to offer in the place of prohibition except more liquor. They denounce the saloon, but they have no work able solution for the problem. He says he is not in favor of abandon ing what we have until we are sure of getting something better. He believes we should make it as diffi cult as possible to get liquor, and any plan which makes it easier should be opposed. When a man like Mr. Gannett, residing and doing business in tie wettest city and wettest state, and engaged in a business which neces sitates a knowledge of conditions and events, takes the stand he does, he is worth listening to. He is not dominated by the immense slush funds of the liquor interests of for eign countries as many newspaper publishers evidently are. Henry Ford believes that in the new Industrial order which is be ing created in America booze is out Vast Growing Army of Sargon Us ers, Marching Single File, Would Encircle Globe in Only Few Years Time. (By Richard L. Simms) ATLANTA, GA.: More like a tale from the Arabian Nights of old than a record of modern business achievement reads the story of the marvelous growth and development of Sargon, the New Scientific Com pound which has become the sensa tion of the drug- trade throughout the United States, Canada, and oth er countries. The old illustration of the pebble dropped into the pool best describes the phenomenal and unprecedent ed demand and its fame is rapidly spreading over the entire American Continent like a great tidal wave. Recently compiled figures re veal that approximately 15,000 men and women are marching into the drug stores daily for Sargon and Sargon Soft Mass Pills, the mar velous new treatment that is re storing health to countless thous ands by new and remarkable meth ods undreamed of only a few years ago. Already more than 5,000,000 suf fering men and women have put it to the test and have told other mil lions what it has done for them. Marching in regulation U. S. Ar- mv fashion single file this vast army of Sargon users would reach from New York to San Francisco and at the present rate of sale would, in a few years time, encircle the entire globe. The only explanation of Sargon's triumph in the Medical World is Sargon's true worth. Back of its triumph in the drug stores is its triumph in the homes and it is the grateful endorsements of its mil lions of users that has made It the most widely talked of medicine in the world today. Sargon is extensively advertised it is true, but no preparation, no matter how extensively advertised, could possibly meet with such phe nomenal success unless is possessed absolute merit and extraordinary powers as a medicine. There can be but one possible ex planation for Sargon's amazing suc cess and it can be told in one word MERIT! Patterson & Son Druggists, Agents.
