SWEET MILK SCONDS.

One.half pound flour, one-half ounce
sugar, one teaspoonful cream tartar
one-half teaspoonful baking soda, one
gill milk, one ounce butter, one-half
teaspoonful salt. Rub the butter
slightly into the flour, add the sugar,
cream of tartar, soda, salt and mix
well. Mix all into light dough with
the milk, turn onto a Toured board,
work lightly until smooth, roll out and
cut into eight pieces. Lay the scones
on a creased baking tin; bake in
very quick oven for ten minutes. TO
glaze the scones, brush them with
little egg before putting them into
the oven. These are good breakfast
substitutes for the hot rolls and are
easily and quickly made. The original
scone was cut triangularly in shape.

a special from Vale to the
Oregonian says. The report that
has reached Vale regarding the
Chicago & Northwestern is to the
effect that one branch of the line
will cross the Snake River at
Nyssa and run west from there to
Vale and then head for Central
Oregon. Which pass it will take
is unknown. II can follow up
Bully Greek towards Beulah, and
thence TO Burns, and go through
TO Bend and across the mountains
to the willamette Valley, II a
line should go to Eureka, Cal it
would undoubtedly divide at
Burns, or near there, and one line
would go through Lakeview, and
from there follow the course of
the river to Eureka, while the
other would go almost directly
west from Burns. Both of these
lines tap very rich timber belts.
L NJ Rice, a capitalist from St
Louis, Mo, passed through Vale
this week for the interior. He
stated he intended to secure large
holdings of timber west of Burns,
and also in the Lakeyiew country.
This fact, coupled With the fact
that Northwestern engineers were.
in Nyssa last week looking over
the route from Boise, where they
have established partial survey
from Casper, Wyo., leads the peo-
pie of the interior to the belief
that this line will be extended on
towards the coast.

THE SNOW STORM.

An unusual and lasting snow
storm visited this section this
week. 1t begun early and has
kept it up almost continuously for
the whole week and il il had not
been mixed with rain there would
now be a considerable more depth
of snow. AS it is there is more
snow on the ground in this inn
mediate vicinity than was ever
witnessed before by the "oldest
inhabi,ant."
Several have measured il aud
all seem to have a different yard
stick as the figures vary from rs
inches to 10 inches. The snow
is more or less drifted and It is al
most impossible TO get an accu-
rate measurement. The Times
Herald has its own measurement,
but for fear its truth and veracity
may be questioned, it will not give
figuyes.
Notwithstanding the inconven-
fence and disagreeableness of so
much snow, everybody is happy
and so far as can be learned no
serious damage has resulted from
1t. Next years crops are assured,
together with an excellent range
for stock.
The stcskmep have an album
dance OF hay and have their stock
in shape to feed, so there will he
no loss.
Several roofs of barns and
sheds have been crushed in by
the heavy weight Of snow in this
city. A shed at Chas. Ander-
sons place fell under the weight
of the snow and buggy and
wagon were damaged. Aside
from that no damage has resulted
other than merely the breaking
OF the roofs.
The stages are all late, the o.
B stage being behind sometimes
almost a. hours but as soon as
the roads are broken il is expect
ed that our mails will again ar
rive on time. No one complains
OF conditions, however, rs il is
simply impossible to get the mail
through on time with from two
to 20 feet OF snow.
As the ground is not frozen to
speak OF i, is not expected that
the spring freshet will be unusual.

GOLF YARN BY LoNGWoRrH
And Kansas Story in Return by an
Enthusiast at the
Game

Nicholas Longworth, of Ohio, is a

enthusiast who plays very indiffer-

says the Washington correspondent OF

The most remarkable golfer | ever

was man out In Cincinnati, who had
a passion for the game. but who COM
pliCated that fervor with an appetite
for Scotch highballs that was the won
der of Ohio.
His theory was that there should
be a drink server on every tee, and
he worked 1t by means of an army OF
caddies. One afternoon he came in
and announced that he had renowned
the game.
What's the matter Jim?' said. a
friend.
Oh, he said, YEARLY, It's no use.

ball I can't hit 1t; and whenever l
can hit 1t can't see it."
