bers have had club project beef
animals weished and checked

well. Club members have been
doing a good job in keeping
calves on full feed especially
since many are feeding rations
which are crowding calves into
big daily gains. All calves made
averaee daily gains or at least
2 1-3 pounds.
Club members with calves on
feed and weights of July 27 are
as follows:
Ida Lee Chapel (2 calves)
1016 and 679; Joan Caves, 755;
Dean Graves, 730; Betty Gra
ves, 862; Reita Graves, 755; In
grid Herman, 914; Ronald Ba
ker, 875; Duane Baker, 775;

If vour ' canning sugar is
low peaches may be canned in
their own juices. This is not the
ideal canning method, but will
help to save fruit. Peaches
canned this way may be sweet
ened just before serving and
they are excellent for puddings,
cobblers and pies.
Here is a method for solid-
pack peaches: Slice ripe peach
es and out into top of double
boiler without water. Heat until
peaches are thoroughly heated
through. It may be necessary to
stir occasionally to prevent stick
ing and distribute heat evenly
Fill jars with hot peaches to
within one inch of the top. Run
knife around jar to allow air to
escape. Place hot lids on jars
Process in boiling water bath
for 15 minutes.
Plans are being made for a
big weed control program start
ing with the use of sodium chlo
rate this fall followed by culti
vation and chemical control in
1947. In order to have tan ef
fective control program it is ne
cessary that all farmers coope
rate. List your chemical needs
and assistance needed with the
county agent now. Demonstrate
farms to show results of con
trol by cultivation and chemical
methods will be set up. If your
weed infestations are ideally lo
cated so the public can see re
sults being obtained, tell us so
we can use you as a cooperator
in this important project.
A strin of rane sewprt nnHor
a row of buttons especially on
inin materials will go tar to
ward preventing bnttons from
tearine out of the fahrie uv
Katherine Monahan, home dem
onstration agent. The tapa is
sewed down on both sides on
the underside of the garment,
and the buttons sewed through
the center of it. This does nnt
show when buttoned and the
strain is distributed so that the
cloth beneath the button does
not take the full pull.
On rayon clothes," such a tape
will prevent the damage that
comes from using an iron that
is too hot. This tape is especially
good on children's clothes or
clothes that receive hard wear.
It is worthwhile to apply tape to
ready-made garments as well as
to those made at home.
Fat lambs are continuing to
come off the forest ranges.

aged 80',-i pounds. The weights
included all of the lambs in the
bands except what ewe lambs
were saved for replacements.
Archie Ball shipped his lambs
from the Skookum allotment.
They weighed in at 72 pounds
per head.
Steve Thompson shipped the
tail end of his lambs. 1 he tail
of the lead bands weighed 80V
pounds with half of these being
twins. The remainder of the
twin band weighed 81 pounds.
Twenty-five percent of the re
