How Butter lakes salt.

II one We're to get up before an au-
divnce and tell those facing him that
batter, the real butter fat, does not
take salt. most OF them would think he
did not know what he was talking
about but he would be speaking the
truth. Sal, can be pressed into a mass
of butter, but the real butter. the but
ter fat. will not dissolve salt 20 that
the salt becomes intermingled with II.
The moisture, the water. that is in the
butter mus, dissolve the salt. II is
clear then. that to get a ball of but
ter salted in all its parts equally II
is necessary to gel the moisture, the
carrier of the salt. distributed equal
~ in all parts of the butter. II the
moisture. the carrier of the salt. is
present in the butter in little pockets.
the butter ia, near the pockets viii be
salted more heavily than the butter
fat farther away.
Before the sailing Is done le; the
butter drain well after washing II. Dill
ferent individual tastes will vary as
to how much butter should be salted
and there may be some variation IN
the requirements OF different markets.
Since salt is cheaper than butter faL
IL would seem good business to salt the
butter fully as heavily as the taste of
the purchaser likes. As general rule,
butter tha; is medium soft after being
worked should receive as many ounces
Of salt as there are pounds OF butter
as maximum. and from that down
to three-four,hs as many ounces OF salt

WEARYIN' FOR YOU.

Just a-wearyin' for you
Everything affecting blue.
Wishing for you, wondering when
You'll be coming home again.
Restless!-Don't know what to do
Just a-wearyin' for you.
Rooms so lonesome with your chair
Empty-by the fireplace there
Just can't stand the sight of it!
Go out doors and roam bit,
But the woods are lonesome, too
Just a-wearyin' for youl
Morning comes. The birds awake
They are singing for your sake!
But there's sadness in their notes
That come thrilling from their
throats!
Seem to feel your absence, too
They're just a-wearyin' for youl
Evening comes, 1 miss you more
When the dark gloom's in the door;
Seems just like you ought to be
Thereto open 1t for mel
Latch goes tinkling thrills me
through
Sets me a-wearyin' for you
Blossoms falling on the ground
Softly, like your footsteps, sound,
And the blossoms on flower and tree
Only paint your face for me!
Fairer when your face I knew
Just a-wearyin' for you!
Just a-wearyin' for you
All the time affecting blue;
Wishing for you-wondering when
You'll be coming home again!
Restless!-Don't know what to do
Just a-wearyin for you.

YOU AND l.

You and l are only pebbles on thu
shore;
Just a wavelet's hurrying touch anC
all is DER.
Then beneath the effacing sands
We fold up our empty hands
And the place that knew us knows u.
now no more.
You and 1 are only rain drops on the
grass;
Just an instant cleaning, e'er a zephyr
pass;
Then the shaken reed is bent
By a gust OF Fortune sent,
And the world forgets we lived Cor
loved, alasD
You and I are only painted picture
toys.
Tossed and tumbled by the Fates,
like fretful boys;
Scared and soiled In soul and
brain
All our castles reared in vain
And the rainbows that we follow, but
decoys!
You and 1 are only struggling mortal
things,
With the thraldom OF the earth upon
our wings;
Beating bindly through the
gloom
'Twixt the cradle and the tomb
Jostling in the utter darkness-slaves
and kings.

A truck gardener at Lewiston sold
$500 worth of cucumbers from one
acre of irrigated land The same
enormous yield could be secured from
any acre in the Hermlston or Echo
district where water has been placed
upon the land. Why are there not
golden promises here for men with
small means? What ordinary work.
lngman in Umatilla county could not
seed one or two acres to cucumbers

case. judging from the following out
side editorial view, coming from the
oregon Daily Journal
That Pendleton has "slathers" OF
money no one denies. That she is
able to do anything which she might
desire to do in financial way, no
one questions, That she could with
equal ease and grace finance a vine
gar factory or a system OF electric
lines, is admitted by everybody who
has come into contact with the live
wires Of the Pendleton spirit, but that
we are doing none of these things at
present, must be admitted.
It may be pertinent and timely to
ask why we are doing none Of these
things? Why are several millions of
idle money suffering from dry rot"
II Umatilla county banks?
The Journal says of Pendleton's
conditions
one Pendleton bank, in a recent
statement, shows It has of cash on
hand, s14S,O49.71 and "due from other
banks" $S71.SS1.S4, or over $500, 600,
while carrying total deposits Of ST.
29S,9S212.
This is an average showing of the
banks in all parts of Oregon. a pie
thora of cash and conservativeness. an
inactivity on the part of those who
have money in the bank, a disposition
to keep from doing something where
in there is some little risk" as we'll
as some little energy and enterprise
required.
In this same town of Pendleton,
where there are three banks. all en-
trusted with liberal funds by their
depositors, a well advertised wooden
mill is closed for want of someone
with a little energy, enterprise and
money to run it, and there is talk OF
tearing this mill down and moving
it to some place where the requisite
resources of operation and successful
conduct can be assembled.
While this takes place a goodly
number of Pendleton people, who pos
sess these deposits in their home
banks, will yawn and YEARLY wonder
where they will be able to loan a lit
tie more money at high rate of in
terest with least risk, and with no
need of alertness, energy or enter
prise on their part to keep It en-
ployed.
And here one has a clear idea of
community disease known as "dry
rot" brought about by accumulation
of money or wealth by few indivld-
uals through growth of population
and rising land values. rather than
through the more legitimate avenues
of hard work and industry, coupled
with enterprise and pride in the
home place to keep it in the fore
front of progress.
Those persons who drift into the
contented zone of living off of ground
rent and interest soon contract the
malady of 'indolence and don't care"
and become more and more burdens
to the rest of the community lacking
in civic virtues and that public spirit
which strengthens the home. builds
up the town and spreads the fame
of the county and state.
In short, the interest and ground
rent eaters, so long as they are with
out other visible means of support"
are "deadheads" on the voyage of
earthly existence, and make the lives
OF any number of other people harder
and more barren in consequence.
Wake up, keep a-goin'!

THE PROHI PLATFORM.

Aside from its demand for the pro-
hibition of the manufacture of liquors,
the national prohibition platform con-
tains some excellent doctrine and is
worthy Of notice by the thinking
voters Of the United States.
This platform grapples fearlessly
with the big issues which are engag-
ing the attention of such men as
President Roosevelt, Senator La
Toilette, Governors Hughes and Folk
and other reform leaders in both of
the old parties.
The platform in full, is as follows:
The prohibition party Of the United
States, expressing gratitude to AL
mighty God for the victories of our
principles in the past, for encour-
agement at present, and for conf
dence of early and triumphant sue
cess in the future, makes the follow
ing declaration of principles and
pledges their enactment into law
when placed in power:
l. The submission by congress to
the several states of an amendment to
the federal constitution prohibiting
the manufacture, sale, importation,
expectation or transportation of alco-
holic liquors for beverage purposes.
2. The immediate prohibition of
the liquor traffic for beverage pur-
poses in the District Of Columbia, in
the territories and all places over
which the national government has
Jurisdiction, the repeal Of the internal
revenue tax on alcoholic liquors and
the prohibition of the interstate traf-
fic therein.
3. The election of United States
senator's by direct vote of the people.
4. Equitable graduated income and
Inheritance taxes.
5. The establishment Of postal saw
ings banks and the guaranty of de-
posits in banks.
s. The regulation Of all corpora
tlons doing an interstate commerce
business.
Z. The creation Of a permanent
tariff commission.
s. The strict enforcement Of the
law instead Of the official tolerance
and practical license Of the social evil
which prevails in many Of our cities,
with Its unspeakable traffic in girls.
8. Uniform marriage and divorce
laws.
10. An equitable and constitutions
al employees liability ac-
II. Court review of postoffice de-
partment decisions
II. the prohibition Of child labor
in mines workshops and factories.
13. Legislation basing suffrage
only upon intelligence and ability to
read and write the English language.
H. The preservation Of the miner
al and forest resources Of the country
and the improvement Of the highways
and waterways.
Believing In the righteousness Of
our cause and in the final triumph Of
our principles and convinced OF the
unwilllngness Of the republican and
democratic parties to deal with these
issues. we invite to full party fellow
ship all citizens who are with us
agreed

THE MARVEL OF THE BISCUIT.

Over at Waitsburg this week test
Of rapid harvesting was made by the
Preston-Parton Milling company and
1t required just 20 minutes to cut,
thresh, grind and bake into biscuits
a small tract of wheat. From stand
ing grain to hot biscuits in less than
half an hourl
But We have become SO accustom-
ed to marvels that we marvel no
more!
Only few years ago it was weeks
between the threshing and the bak-

our grandfathers and grandmothers
Graded their wheat, beat II out with
