awarded $50 a month. She charged
her husband had abandoned her, and
had taken up his residence. at the

gossip in high society circles. and

Helps
Learn to REGULATE the Heat Of
Your Oven
9yAhxs. Jaset Mckenzie kiN, Ediaovy
tie Bossos Cooking School Magazine

There is just one way to make
your cakes rise high and keep an
even surface. Have your oven
moderate at first, until the cake Is
fully rizen; then increase the heat,
30 q to brown it over quickly.
Extreme heat stifens the dough.
If you stifen the outside Of the
cake before the rising Is complete,
you stop the rising process. Then
the leavening gas, forming inside,
will bulge up the center, where
the dough is still soft, and spoil
the shape Of the cake. ..
Nor1-Biscuits q other pastries
made from stiff dough, that are cut into
shapes for the oven, bake In hot oven.
This 10 because the cut surfaces Of tho
dough do not ri over, but .rsthef
1ssve the pores open, allowing tho
1eavening gas to escape ard the heat to
penetrate readily. Small ovens cool
quickly; therefore they shoald be made
several degrees hotter than Q larger

National Employment Bureau
Planned by the Democrats

cIude all the third and fourth class
postoffices within a given radius.
Workers seeking positions may file
with their local postmaster an appli-
cation on a prescribed form, stating
the kind of position desired, the quail
| ifications and experience and other
necessary information.
Employers in need of workers sim
ilarly may file with the postmaster q
statement showing the positions open.
If at the end of "a hours a workers
application has not secured him a po-
sition in the local "labor market" his
application is to be forwarded to the
central labor exchange for his dis
trict and there posted and sent oat
to all the postoffices in that district.
If at the end Of week he is still
out of employment his application
goes to still larger zone or depart
ment, and from there after specified
time to the National Labor Exchange,
which, under the plans proposed, pub
fishes weekly or monthly bulletin
showing all applicants for positions
and all positions open. The effect &C
this scheme gives an automatically
widening field to the worker and the
employer in which to secure or fill a
position. The worker is thus auto
matically placed in touch with the job
nearest home. The employer is en-
abled to fill positions with workers
closest at hand.
Any proposed bill on this subject is
sure to contain a provision barring
from use Of the exchange any person,
firm or corporation against whom it's
employees are striking, or where a
strike vote is being taken preparatory
to strike. Thus the exchange could
not be used as strikebreaking agency
as so many private agencies are now
used.
Outside of these obvious advantages
in bringing into immediate contact
workers and employers, one other
great advantage would be that the
service would cost nothing to its ben-
, efciaries. The expense of handling
the system would be surprisingly
small, according to those who have
studied the question.
In the local country postoffices for
instance, the three or four applica-
tions a day which the postmaster
Imperial Valley press., 1913-10-17

might receive could be handled by him
in the ordinary course of his work. In
larger postoffices, this work might re-
quire the services of a special clerk,
but in no case would the expense be
very great.
In the case of private agencies, the
applicant must frequently pay a fee
to register, varying from SIS to $5,
and then pay a percentage, usually 5
per cent of the first years salary, to
the agency.
Another important feature of such
system would be it's effect on the
white slave" traffic. For instance,
country girl desiring employment in
the city, instead of trusting to chance,
as she does now, and perhaps being
without employment for several weeks
or months-meanwhile the object of
white slavers-would know before
leaving her home where her employ
ment was to be, her salary, and the
character of the work.
Besides this, white slavers who at
tempted to use the service would face
two penalties-the penalty of the
Mann act, and also a penalty for US
ing the mails for improper purposes.
1t will readily be seen how this pro-
posed labor exchange could be used
for the purpose of enforcing state and
national laws regulating and safe
guarding the employment of workers.
The federal department could refuse
the use of service to employers con-
vlcted of violations of ordinances pre-
scrlblng fire escapes, protection of
dangerous machinery and so on.
The proposerd bill will go in either
at the present session, or if not COM
pleted in time, then at the session
which opens in December.

Washington, Oct. lit is defn-
itely learned that Democratic men,
bers of the house committee on labor
are preparing to introduce into the
house what may prove to be one Of
the most important labor measures
ever placed before that body.
The bill in question is believed to
be the plan of James Eads How, the
"Millionaire Hobo" How has just
left Washington after series of con-
ferences with Representative John l.
Nolan of California and Representa-
tive David j. Lewis of Maryland, both
of whom are members Of the labor
committee and both union men. How
also conferred with Postmaster Cen
eral Burleson. He urged on them the
consideration by congress of bill to
establish a National Employment
Bureau" And, at the present time, it
looks very much as if this purpose
would be successful.
Although the fact has not yet been
made public, it is learned that both
Congressman Lewis and Nolan now
have under consideration drafts of
such a proposed bill, and that such
legislation has been seriously dis
cussed with number of well known
social workers and economists who are
the real authors of the bill.
1t is also understood that the men
behind this move have interested Sec
retary of Labor w. B. Wilson and AS
sistant Secretary Louis Post in the
project, and that Postmaster General
Burleson is giving serious attention to
the matter. Assistant Secretary Post
has promised his active support.
The proposed bill, while it embodies
principle which has been in sue
cessful operation for years in foreign
countries-notably Germany and
England--as well as in a number of
states of the union, is nevertheless
sweeping and revolutionary in it's eff
feet. The bill proposes to establish
a National Employment Bureau, un-
der the supervision of the department
of labor, using the postofices all over
the country as labor employment bu-
reaus.
Certain first or second class post
offices in the larger cities will be de-
signated as central labor exchanges"
for specified districts which will in

Los Angeles, Oct. 17-Butter was
weaker in the Los Angeles produce
market yesterday, although there
were no sales to lower the present
quotations of 32c pound on the
creamery extras. tt was offered yes
terday at Bic, but there were no bids
of any sort made for it. There have
been no activities at all for about a
week in fresh eggs and all of the
dealings on the exchange have been
in eastern and storage stock. Many
cases of the latter were offered YES
terday, but the buyers and sellers
could not get together to make even
one sale. Egg receipts came to the
small amount of ninety-six cases.
There were some very fancy Tokay
grapes received by one of the large
houses yesterday and these went at
top price of $3.50 a lug box. All
of the fancy grapes are selling for
good figures as the supply has fallen
Oft within the last week. Muscats
can not be bought for less than 9Oc a
lug and the price on shipping stock
is even higher. Other fruit is practi-
cally unchenged.
Peas are still scarce and the price
yesterday on the shipping stock was
put at from S1a to sc a pound. To
the local trade they were 611a to 7c, de-
pending on quality. Green beans are
easier and sold yesterday for &c a
pound. Limas bring from 4 to Sc.
Good cabbege is still scarce and moves
easily at around 21sc a pound.

ure. December declined to $13S and
closed at $1.381s. For May $1.46 was
bid and $1.47 asked Cash prices for
barley on the local sample tables

throughout the session with leading

looked hard to get January through

came reporting a sharp drop in tenn

shorts covering freely and the bullish
outfit pressing their advantage. tt is
grave question as to what damage
frost would do in Oklahoma and

The Electoral Vote.

The electoral college. is one of the myths of politics. There is no such body, no college" at all.
 The popular belief is that the presidential electors, chosen in November, meet in the city of Washington, and, being solemnly convened and brought to order cast their states votes for the presidential choice. But, in fact. the meeting of the electors is purely state affair. There is no convention of the whole in Wash ington. Each state holds a col lege" of it's own, attended by it's own electors. Congress has fixed the date of these small meetings for the second Monday in January, thus obviating any possible difficult ty that might arise from delay in a diversity of dates,

HE CIfAN-UP ORDERS.
Most People Willing to Assist Board of
 Health, But Some tdil

The orders issued by the Board of Health the first of the month for a general cleanup of premises for the protection of health here against infectious diseases was generally observed and commend ed. but some have failed to do so and need not be surprised if they are arrested and fined for refusing to assist in so noble work.
 Strange as it may seem there are white families living here who have children that would be more liable to take cerebro- spinal men, ingitis than grown persons, who do not realize that it is a duty they owe their own children to say noth- ing of themselves and their neigh bors to keep their yards and houses in a sanitary condition at all times.
 It was surprise to all the amount of filth and rubbish which has been removed and which yet remains to be hauled away. The town will be at considerable ex- pense in this cleanup movement and it is duty of every resident to get box or barrel and place same near the back fence in which to place all cans. bottles and other rubbish so that it can be removed every week.
 The officials have done their duty in this matter and if the meningitis or any other Infectious disease should break out here they feel they have warned everybody of the security and advantage of sanitary conditions and those who have failed to talk : the necessary precaution may expect to be the first to suffer, should this happen before they have been arrested and fined.
 The mayor does not want to be called to fac anyone for this of fense and should not be in a civl- lized community, but will have it to do should any be negligent in this matter If you have not done so already, cleanup now and then keep your premises clean here after for the good of all.
 All leaves and lumber should be burned
