jelly should be added to a pint of
warm water to make a suds. It
can then be applied with a sponge
to the walls. The strokes should
be made upward from the base-
board to prevent streaks. Follow
these strokes with a chamois or
soft, clean cloth.
Another liquid for washing enam­
eled walls is made by mixing one
quart of bran with one-half pint of
warm water, Miss Patterson says.
For varnished surfaces, amonia and
water can be used. Dust can be re­
moved from papered walls with a
wall brush or a broom covered with
a broom bag. It is well to apply the
broom lightly to prevent rubbing
dirt into the walls, and to overlap
the strokes to avoid streaking. Com­
mercial pastes, too, are usually quite
satisfactory for cleaning washable
wallpaper. Miss Patterson says, but
she cutions against using too much
water on so-called "washable” wall
paper, because of danger of loosen­
ing the paper at the seams.
The best dust cloth for wood
work is a soft, non-linting material,
and hemmed to prevent ravelling,
says Miss Patterson. It will hold
dust better if treated with oil. For
ordinary dusting
of non-waxed
wood or metal surfaces, the cloth
may be treated by putting one table-
spoon of boiled linseed oil into a
quart can or jar. Cover and turn the
jar until the oil is spread evenly
over its inner surface. Put the cloth
in the jar and leave over night.
To prepare a cloth for dusting
waxed or other surfaces, add one
tablespoon of boiling linseed oil to
one quart of warm water and dip
the cloth in the solution. Wring out
and permit to dry before using it.
case, he says.
In hot weather success in hand­
ling potatoes depends on digging
them free from injuries, quick hand­
ling from field to car or warthouse,
thorough cooling, and possibly ship­
ping in iced cars, says Hyslop. Fol­
lowing are the chief causes of me­
chanical injury, regardless of wea­
ther:
1. Tramping or bruising of pota­
toes with work stock or machinery
wheels.
2. Cutting the potatoes by using
too small a digger or having it set
to run at too shallow a depth.
3. Injury from sharp ends of the
digger elevator chain which are not
properly guarded to keep potatoes
away from them.
4. Unnecessary use of the exten­
sion elevator in sandy soils.
Such practices as using wire
picking baskets, dropping potatoes
long distances when emptying or
filling bags, or tramping over them
in piles, bins or sacks were also
cautioned against if losses through

He was born and raised in Umatilla County; is 30

If elected, he will do his duty faithfully and hon­
estly without any regard to politics. He will dili­
