D. SCROGGS 99 40 The raising of the flag Wednes day was impressive, not so much from the ceremony that attended it, but from a patriotic point It is the flag our forefathers fought under for American independ ence, successfully defended in 1812 and again in 1846. During our own rebellion it was the em blem that led the forces in the successful struggle for a contin ued union of the states. Next, in 1898, it was carried at the head of the columns fighting for the freedom of an oppressed people to the credit of our coun try and those who carried it. Once more we are called upon to fight for liberty and justice and with such a cause the stars and stripes will surely come out of the fray with honor. Such is the flag—the flag of every Amer ican—that was floated Wednes day. To the two hundred school children witnessing the simple little ceremony it will be an occa sion always remembered and may their children sing “The Old Flag Never Touched the Ground.” As pretty a sight as one could wish to see is the great mass of bloom in orchard after orchard as one drives over the project. Yet to the owners of these orch ards harvest time next fall will prove the most attractive and we are not sure but what we can appreciate the fruit laden tree more than the blossoms. Reports from various meetings recently where both sides of the road bond issue were discussed indicate that the opposition is presenting a very weak argu ment In this connection we call attention to what Fred A. Yates, a former Hermiston resident now living in California, says: “Am -- (es nA "Off the Tray" the lunch service recently inaugurated by Union Pacific System that is proving immensely popular, is a new reason why you should insist that your ======----==-- tickets read Union Pacific System.

We of California now have $33,000,000 of state high way bonds and, really, we do not notice any burden. In this state the auto, largely, pays for the highway and more highways means more autos, etc. ’ ’ Congress is preparing a war revenue bill that will raise $33 per capita. Of course this will be arranged so those best able will pay the most, but all must stand some part. If we will all practice the strictest economy now, we may not find it neces sary to deny ourselves many necessities later. The war is bringing out the fact every day that we do not have to depend on Europe for many things formerly imported. In truth, the American article generally proves a little better once the manufacture is perfected. With the greatly increased crops of all kinds planted in the Hermiston country this year, our people are going to be greatly surprised at the amount of pro duce that can be grown.

M. STRAW. MGR. Watch Your Kitchen Waste A large part of the $700,000,00 0 esti* mated food waste in this country is good food whichis allowed to get into garbage pails and kitchen sinks. Ask Yourself “Can It Be Eaten? Don’t throw out any left overs that can be reheated or combined with other foods to make palatable and nourishing dishes. DO YOU KNOW- That every bit of uneaten cereal can be used to thicken soups, stews or gravies? That stale bread can be used as the basis for many at tractive meat dishes, hot breads and desserts? That every ounce of skimmed milk or whole milk con tains valuable nourishment? Use every drop of milk to drink or to add nourishment to cereals, soups, sauces and other foods. If you do not want milk to sour keep it cool, clean, and covered continually. Remember, too, that sour milk, buttermilk and sour cream are valuable in cookery; so do not waste any. Sour milk and buttermilk can be used with soda in making hot breads, or sour milk can be turned easily into cottage cheese, cream cheese or clabber. Sour cream is good shortening in making cakes and cookies and useful for salad dressings and gravies for meat. That every bit of meat and fish can be combined with cereals or vegetables for making meat cakes, meat or fish pies, and so on, and to add flavor and food value to made dishes? DO YOU KNOW— That every spoonful of left over gravy can be used in soups and sauces or as flavoring for meat pies, croquettes and vegetables. That every bit of clean frt trimmed from meat and every spoonful of drippings and every bit of grease that rises when meat is boiled can be clarified, if need be, and is valuable in cookery? Don’t fatten your garbage pail at the expense of your bank account That when meat is boiled, the water dissolves out some valuable food and flavoring material? Save such water for soup or for use in stews or gravies, or for cooking vege tables. Save and keep soup stock. Every professional cook knows that keeping a soup or stock pot is an essential econ omy. DO YOU KNOW- That valuable food and flavoring get into the water in which rice and many vegetables are cooked? Use such water for soup making if it has an agreeable flavor. Don’t pour nourishment down the sewer. That careless paring of potatoes or fruits often wastes as much as 20 per cent of their food material? That the outside leaves of lettuce and that the tops of many vegetables make desirable cooked “greens” or even salads?
