LUNCH FOX EVENING GUESTS
Simple Refreshments Easily Prepared
Without Spending Much Money
or Effort.

When girl friends drop in unexpect-
edly for the evening dainty refresh
ments add much to the pleasure of the
guests without causing any great ex-
penditure of either money or effort
Hot chocolate is a favorite beverage
or all womankind and the truly hos
pltable' woman is always an adept at
making It,
To make hot chocolate allow one
ounce of chocolate to each pint of
liquid. To make one quart put two
ounces OF chocolate in a double boiler
with one pint of hot water. Stir I'M
til the chocolate is melted. then add
one pint of rich milk. Beat and stir
rapidly until it boils again. Add three
tablespoonfuls of sugar, take from the
fire and beat quickly. Have the choc-
olate pot hot when the chocolate is
turned in and served with whipped
cream. II slightly thickened chocolate
Is desired make a thin paste of two
teaspoonfuls of cornstarch moistened
with milk and stir slowly into the mix
ture just before it is taken from the
stove.
Dainty sandwiches to serve with
the chocolate are made by cutting
white bread into thin slices and
spreading them with a paste made of
finely chopped pecan nut meats and
mayonnaise. Lettuce sandwiches have
leaf of crisp lettuce spread with the
mayonnaise as filing. Butter the
bread before using the filling. Some
hostesses keep jar of chopped nuts
or peanut butter on hand all the time
and so are never at loss when the
unexpected guest drops In. Peanut
sandwiches are made by spreading one
slice OF the bread thinly with butter
and the other with the peanut butter.

SHELL 100000 YEARS OLD.
Tortoise Fossil Preserves Color
Through Ages.

Through Ages.
Los Angeles, Cal.-Three thousand
feet above sea level on the slopes of
Mount Badly, and so miles from the
coast in Orange county, Thomas Don
Ion picked up the perfect fossil of a
huge sea tortoise, which Hector AL
liot, curator of the Southwest mus
cum, pronounces the most important
discovery of the kind ever made in
Southern California.
Donlon has a bee ranch and was
seeking a rock to hold down the lid of
a hive when he saw the shell protrud-
ing from the ground. The stone
weighs 100 pounds and shows the ex-
act markings and some of the original
color on the back and yellow bottom.
The specimen is nearly 80 inches in
diameter.
Aliot estimates that it is 400, 900
years old, the most ancient specimen
ever picked up on the Western hemis-
phere. The tortoise swan in these
seas, he says, when California and all
the territory this side of the Rocky
mountains was still a mile or two I'M
der water.

Alfalfa Eeed for Flock.

II your hens do not do well, try a
small patch of alfalfa. An aero will
be enough for a few colonies.
II has been shown that alfalfa can
be grown anywhere in the United
States and by starting with a small
patch OF II and gradually widening the
area as you get time to lime and in
oculate the soil. you will soon have a
good-sized field OF It, 1t is excellent
feed. both for hogs and poultry.
Alfalfa meal is one of the best Of
winter feeds for chickens. The meal
Is semi-green IN nature. besides con
tanning a high percentage Of lime and
protein. Alfalfa meal will cost about
as much as wheat bran, and It has
about equal feeding valfe to bran
besides providing green stun for the
hens in winter when grass is dead. Try
some Of the meal this winter and ar.
range to grow your own alfalfa for the
hens and bees another year.

unjust and wrong the committee should
SO report
THE evidence submitted to the COM
mittee conclusively shows that the en-
actment of this bill into law would be
q great injustice to the agricultural in
terests of all the northern states for
the following reasons:
The occupation of farming today
pays less profit upon the capital ami
labor actually employed therein than
any other important occupation in the
United States.
Therefore any legislation, the effect
OF which would be to make this occu-
patton less profitable, is both wrong
and inexpedient.
"On the contrary, so far as 1t can
be accomplished by legislative enact
ment, the business of farming should
be made more remunerative and in
viting.
For the past few years this occupa-
ton in the northern states has shown
an increasing profitableness as our
production and consumption OF food
products more nearly approach each
other.

but we no sooner enter upon these
new and better conditions when we are
securing for farm labor and for capital
invested In farms ana farm property,
q more fair and just remuneration,

M'CUMBER'S SPLENDID
DEFENSE OF THE FARMERS

| the rural districts has been drifting
into the cities because of the more re-
munerative occupation in the cities.
The late increasing prosperity on the
farms checked this flow of population
from the farm to the cities, land val
ues had advanced, farms long since
deserted were being rehabilitated and
an era Of general prosperity seemd to
be awaiting the farming population.
BY destroying, as this measure GER
tainly does destroy, every hope Of the
farmer OF the benefits of an increas-
Ing home demand and his ability to
finally secure just compensation for
his labor, we will again check our ag-
ricultural development and send hun
dreds Of thousands of the sons and
daughters of farmers TO crowd the
cities.
For number of years the north
western farmers have received for
their cereal products price consider
able in excess of what such products
would bring for export purposes. The
great markets of Minneapolis and
Duluth have for several years ceased
to be exporting markets for the prin-
cipal kind Of wheat raised in the states
tributary to those markets.
Grain Exports Fall Off.
1T is claimed by some of the sun
porters Of this measure that as we still
export grain from some parts of the
United States our prices are governed
and fixed by the foreign prices. This
is not true today and has not been true
