THURSDAY, JUNE 27, VERNONIA EAGLE. VERNONIA. OREGON FOUR TIMBER rations, keeping the pigs healthy, and saving large litters. A very small amount of hay with a lit tle milk or tankage as a sup plement to the grain ration is very valuable, but the substitu tion of even the best quality of legume bay for a considerable portion of the grain does not lower the cost of the pork pro- duced, it is found. Contrary to former belief and practice, continued cultivation of corn, potatoes and similar crops on most Oregon soils is unnecessary after weeds are eradicated. Weeds are the great est factor in loss of moisture and plant fertility, finds the experi ment station, and after they are controlled little further cultiva- tion is profitable. Feather picking and feather eating in chicken flocks is caus- ed either by a lack of animal proteins or from mere habit, reports the poultry department at the Oregon station.

Abun dance of green feed is also es sential. tatoei, rice, or other starchy food for dinner or as a main dish with sirup for lunch. Allow H to % cup of milk to two eggs and salt lightly. Beat the mixture, dip the slices of bread into it and fry in butter or well seasoned fat in a heavy smooth skillet. Use moderate heat and let the toast become golden brown before turning. A tasty way to cook string beans is to shred them finely, and give them a short, quick cooking in a comparatively small amount of lightly salted water. Remove the tips, ends, and strings, and cut the beans length wise into long, thin shreds, with a pair of scissors. If the beans are young they will cook tender in from 15 to 20 minutes. They will keep their good green color and have a delicate fresh flavor, if cooked quickly and for a " with very short time, Season melted butter and more salt if necessary. The parents' job in training child in good food habits i» only half done when well begun, New problems may develop at any time. Playmates who are al lowed to pick and choose what they will eat at home may have a detrimental influence. There are times when the best of chil dren have finicky appetites. The mother must try to have all food attractive in appearance odor, and flavor, to tempt the appetite, and use judgement in handling the child at table. Quietly ex pecting the food that is set be fore him to be eaten goes a long way toward accomplishing that end.
