IMPORTANT PART OF SERVING
Garnlshment of Dishes Adds Immense
ly to the Stimulation of the
Appetite.

How to garnish artistically ia an
Important secret in lending zest to a
dish. Fritters and vegetables are at
tractiye and delectable accompani-
ments CT meat dishes during cold
weather. and the garnishes that can
be formed from hard boiled eggs, to-
matoes, cucumbers, aspic jellies and
pickles make long list in themselves.
The red radish cut fancifully is a
pretty garnish, and when the little red
buttons topped with small green
leaves are placed on a slice Of green
pickle most attractive combination
Of color Is obtained.
Instead Of the heavy old-time
wrratf Of green about meats and
fowls, 1t is better to use O few sprigs
at one side of the foods Nut meats
can be used advantageously with sa-
worry and sweet dishes, and croquettes
are delightfully."- adapted for garnish-
ment. Flowers ann fruits should
never garnish any dish, but sweet
one, except nasturtiums, which are
OF the crest family and combine bet
ter with meat and vegetables. In pre-
pairing the toast, an attractive variety
can be given by lightly buttering after
toastinS and sprinkling partly or
wholly with minced green parsley.

Value of Linseed Meal.

Linseed meal contains 500 per
cent protein. and per cent fat, max
ing it both a cheap and nutritious in
gredient for the poultry mash. 1t is
especially valuable in the fall or in
the moulting period.
Linseed meal is the residue left
after fax seed has been crushed and
subjected to extreme pressure to re-
move the well known linseed or
painters oil. The cake that is left
is ground to fine meal, and contain
ing some oil and being rich in nitro
genous elements. it forms a rich and
healthful food for poultry.
Fed in the fall of the year it acts
as a bracing tonic, largely assisting
the dropping of old feathers and
growing the new. Its analysis comes
near that of meat. Being of a very
fattening nature, it must not be fed
to bring on cases of looseness of the
bowels and especially to young stock
while properly fed il will regulate
the bowels and keep the stock in q
healthful condition. 1t is claimed
that a teaspoonful is good allow
ance for hen; others say a quart OF
linseed is a sfficient quantity to mis-
With half a bushel of meal and bran

More Senatorial Timber.

II we are to take seriously the fol-
lowing from the Twin Falls News
of last week. the race for senator in
the republican ranks is likely to be
n merry one:
A well defined rumor is current on
the streets of Twin Falls this week
to the effect that this city may pro-
duce a candidate for the United
States senatorship in the person of
Hon. w. p. Guthrie, a well known
local attorney and lifelong repub-
lican.
Mr.. Guthrie has long been identi-
fed with the practice of law in Twin
Falls county since the earliest dawn
OF history in these parts, that is to
say. he is one OF the old timers OF
the district with a wide acquaintance
not only in Twin Falls. but all over
southern Idaho.

Rabies Are Rarred

Our readers have probably noted
the announcement of babies having
been sent by parcels post, but as Will
be seen from the following, the
practice will now cease as they have
been stamped as unmailable by the
department
Washington-Babe are not mail
able. The postofice department so
holds in an edict today barring them
from the parcel post.
The question arose over a request
by the postmaster at Stratford, Ok,
for ruling by the department as to
whether patron of his office could
send a two-year old child by parcel
post from Twin Falls, Idaho, to
Stratford.
The postmaster was puzzled be-
cause he could find nothing in the
regulations covering such a acse. So
he referred 1t to the postoffice de-
partment.
1t was the first time that the au-
thorities had been asked to rule upon
the question and it caused a mild
sensation. A hurried consultation OF
officials resulted. and, after refer.
ence to the parcel post regulation
4, it was discovered that the Oklahoma
postmaster was right in that there
was no ruling covering this question
Assistant Postmaster General
Stewart therefore decided that al
human beings and live animals are
barred from the mails. One eXcep-
tion. however, is the queen bee
which is the only living creature
that can enjoy the privileges of the
parcels post

BORAH'S PLANS.

The New Freedom has the infor-
nation on what 1t considers most ex-
cellent authority that U. S. Senator
w. e. Borah purposes to return to
Idaho at an early date-even before
the adjournment OF congress IL ne
cessary-with view OF uniting the
republican and progressive parties.
Senator Borah will take personal
charge OF the republican organiza-
ton with the statement to his i'm
mediate friends that he is consider
ing becoming an active candidate for
the presidency. and that his success
will depend largely upon his ability
to re-unite the party In his home
state.
Several propositions the senator
has already worked out. These are
that the progressives-the active
leaders OF the third party-may die
tate the platform and the two parties
thus unite under the old name. Then
Gooding, Ailshie and Brady are to
be brushed aside, and Burton L..
French named for senator, and a
new man for governor. Guy l.. Mar
tin. is to be placated by the non
partisan nomination for supreme
court justice-and the slogan of the
party is to be. "Idaho's reunited re-
publican party is for Borah for presi-
dent"
The above outline OF the senator's S
plan is said to have been made by
the senator himself in communica-
Sc and is to be given authorized pub
lication in the near future.-New

1t will be of interest to the public
to note the following changes that
have been made in the local manage
ment of the Ostrander Lumber Co,
the pioneer lumber firm of Jerome.
Mr. H. d. Cook, who has been To-
cal manager for the past year, has
again assumed charge of the yard
work, and as Mr.. Cook has been
identified with that line of work for
number of years, his ability to
serve the many customers of the
Ostrander Lumber Co. IN a satisfac-
tory manner is established beyound
a question OF doubt
Mr.. H. d. Maclear. the popular
young lumberman who was formerly
local manager at Jerome but has for
the past few years been identified
with the general office of the COM
pany at Twin Falls, has returned to
Jerome to assume the local manage
ment of the Ostrander Lumber Co.'S
Jerome yard. Mr.. Maclear has a
host of friends in and around Jerome
who will be pleased to learn of his
return.
Mr.. C. w. Kenneth. vice president
of the company who for the past few
years has been located in the gem
eral office in Twin Falls, has taken
up his permanent residence at Je-
rome and has general supervision OF
! the company's North Side yards. He
will make his headquarters at the
Jerome office. Mr.. Kenneth has had
many years experience as a lumber
man and this coupled with his inti-
| mate knowledge of the policy the
company wish to pursue. makes him
especially qualified to fairly and in
telligently administer the affairs
pertaining to the operation OF the
company's North Side yards.
These changes give the Ostrander
Lumber Co. strong and efficient
lineup at Jerome and taken in con-
nection with the large, well stocked
yard they have at this point, means
that their customers will be well
served.

Potato Products Factory Needed.

One of the most important steps
taken at the state meeting of the
f. S. f. at Pocatello was the fusion
between the Southern Idaho Produc-
ers' association and the Formers So
ciety of Equity on the question of the
potato market. These two organiz-
ations. are now working together on
this subject for the best interest of
the producer. A uniform pack and
grade for potatoes will be establish
ed. Not long ago it was said that
Idaho places the best potatoes on
the market but in the poorest condi-
tion. A high standard of grading,
fstrictily adhered to, will do much to-
ward the elimination of the objec-
tionable clause in this statement.
But what OF the culls? Must they
be an entire waste except for the few
that may be used for feed about the
place? There are means of convert
ing Gull potatoes, which are often
good but barred on account of size,
into food products, for people as
we'll as animals. The process will
develop a higher food value, and les
sen the waste which of necessity
must occur when the potatoes are
thrown out for the stock to eat.
While the organizations are rails
ing the standards and thus obtaining
better prices for the potatoes, here
is another big problem which it is
to be hoped they will not overlook
the establishment of a factory for the
utilization of the Gull potatoes

That a race is on between the Chi
cago & Northwestern and the Chi
cago Burlington & Quincy railroads
for South Pass. in the continental
divide, between Idaho and Wyoming,
is evident from information that has
reached local railroad circles, indi-
eating that both these lines propose
to make for Idaho Falls and Idaho
territory in pushing extensions to
the Pacific coast and tidewater. Sur
veyors for both roads are in the
field. The Northwestern proposes
to build from Lander, Wyo.. into
Idaho and the Burlington from Wa
haba, Wyo.-Capital News.
That these roads propose to have
an Independent line to the coast
prior to the opening of the Panama
Exposition goes without saying. and
from persent appearances Idaho is
going to benefit materially from
these lines.
1t is well known that since the
Northwestern-U Union Pacific traffic
arrangements were annulled, the
former line has been devising some
means of reaching the coast in order
to compete for the overland business
and the fact that they have decided
to build to Idaho Falls makes ii
quite certain that this section will
benefit from this. If we are to be-
lieve the rumors that are circulated
the Northwestern will have much to
do with the building of the Western
Pacific connection from Twin Falls
to Wells, New, with an extension OF
the line to Idaho Falls. If this
should be accomplished, it would
put this section in almost direct com.
munication with another great trunk
line. From every point of view the
railroad situation in this section OF
the state looks very promising.
