The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1909-11-29

The last word has not been said on
many a long day before the subject is
exhausted.
In fact, the discussion of gas versus
coal never can be settled, or even ap-
proach a solution. so long as the house
wife leaves the maid in charge of the
meter.
l think it is safe to say that nobody
whose purSestrings are not touched
when the gas bill is due will ever have
as watchful an eye on the kitchen gas
flames as she whose dubious privilege
it is to meet expenses.
Be they never SO kindly, the younger,
IRE sponsible members of the family
and its cooks, seem not to have &C
CURED, even after long practice, that
feeling for the gas range that rend-
ers them capable of its control.
Firstly, there is the prevalent habit,
almost too trifling to mention, OF
lighting the burner and filling the tea
kettle afterwards; and the companion
to it, the continued boiling of water
also the mistaken gas stove method
that leaves a flame high after the
vegetable or meat has begun to boil
A correct theory is the use of a high
flame until the boiling point is reached
followed by just flame enough to keep
the kettle boiling.
a vast deal of waste heat goes ir
the same way into the oven. Once il
is heated it will roast or bake quite as
well after some of the excess of flame
has been turned off. The oven top Iii

Garfield county grain fields will
profit by the excessive rains of this
week, which have flooded large por-
tons of the northwest, doing much
damage to property elsewhere.
Monday nights rainfall was the
heaviest of the season, one and one
tenth inches. Slight damage to some
of the fields in the vicinity of Kirby
is reported. Otto HeinzerIing, who
is farming c.. A. Montague's place,
says in that locality the hillsides
leading to the narrow gulcnes were
ditched and the crops, considerably
injured in spots, but this condition
is confined to a small area and is not
at all serious.-POmeroy East Wash

Edward Hayden never told his most
intimate friends what hi gave away" said
Prof. Crowley. and all 1 know Of his
benefactions Is what I have found out
from my own observation and from. an
occasionally dropped remark from him.
mr.. Hayden was one Of the greatest
students / ever knew" continued Prof.
Crowley. HE not only studied the dead
languages, but studied modern languages
and wanted to know all about Esperanto.
His library Is filled with books Of the
highest literature, OF science and art, and
he was never afraid to tackle astronomy,
chemistry or physics. Lately he was e1-
ceedineiy interested In the metric system,
due, / think. to the importers changing
from the yard or gallon system OF measur-
ing to the meter system, and Mr.. Hayden
wanted to know all about It. He would
import some Dresden chinR or Turkish
draperiee and the first thing he would
want to know would be how the goods
were made.
Study was Mr.. Hayden's form Of recrea-
ton. He war in the store all day and then
in the evening he would telephone me to
come over and smoke a good cigar. And
then we would spend the evening in work
ing some algebralc problem or in Analysing
some drug, or in finding out just how
something was made.
Edward Hayden was surely one of
Gods nobleman." concluded Prof. Crowley,
and It would be impossible to say any
thing too good about him"
