HER REWARD

The cook for a well-known Seattle
family left, and no other could be
obtained, SO the lady of the house
did the cooking herself, with such
satisfactory results that, after a
month, her husband gave her beau
tiful set of sables as token of his
appreciation of the good dinners he
had enjoyed. This moved one of the
neighbors to act accordingly when
her cook quit suddenly. Addressing
her husband, she said:
We'll, the cook has gone and I'm
not going to bother to get another
I'm going to do the cooking myself
Deary, you heard what Mr.. SO and
SO gave his wife when she did the
cooking?"
And, putting her arms around his
neck, she cooed: "What shall | get
for my cooking?"
Woman said her husband, push
ing her away, you will get long
black veil!'

WESTERN PRODUCTS
FOR WESTERN WOMEN

While the farmer, the manufactures,
the wholesaler and the retailer are all
important factors in the development
of the West, the consumer-repre-
scented by the housewives the most
important. The farmer may raise
the best fruit and vegetables, the man
ufacturer may put up the best article
and sell it to the jobber and the job
Der sell it to the retailer-but what
then?
If the western trade marked goods
do not move as fast off the shelves
as do the eastern articles, who is to
blame? Not the retailer. for he must
again stock his shelves with the goods
most in demand, although he is ask
ed to be loyal to western jobbers and
manufacturers. The western jobber
is asked to be loyal to the West and
buy of the western manufacturer. The
manufacturer must buy his fresh pro
ducts from the farmer, the original
producer. But the farmer, the manu-
facturer. the jobber and the retailer
are helpless unless the consumer buys
the goods. The housewife buys IS
per cent of the supplies.
Does the western housewife real
ize how important is her part in the
development of the West?
She does, and she is willing-nay,
anxious, to help to the best of her
ability. She wants to know what
western products to ask for. The
western manufacturer must tell her,
and it is through advertising his brand
that he can do this. When the house
wife becomes familiar with the west
ern trademarked goods she will ask
for them, and will insist upon getting
them The retailer will demand them
from the jobber the jobber will &C
to the western manufacturer, and the
chain will be complete.
The consumer has learned that he
or she-can depend upon trade
marked goods, and the live manu-
facturer has also learned that he must
put his brand upon his goods and ther
live up to any statement he makes
concerning them.
All this is particularly true of the
canning industry. The modern ma
chinery now in use and the sanitary

NEVADA
FEDERATION OF WOMEN'S
CLUB NOTES

NLO D NJ L Ed
At the recent convention of the
National Suffrage Association held
in San Francisco, one of the strong
est speakers was club woman from
our own State, Miss Bird Wilson No
woman in the State Federation holds
a higher place in the esteem of the
club women of this State than that
lady.
So gracious, SO kind that she would
not even think an unkind thought, so
broadminded that she can view all
sides of question without personal
prejudice, Miss Wilson has brought
to the councils Of the Federation much
wisdom and culture. Last year she
refused the presidency, believing that
she might be of greater service as a
worker than a leader.
Miss Bird NJ Wilson is an attorney
practicing in Goldield, where she is
member of the Womans Club. Miss
Wilson is also a farmer, owning a
ranch in Clark county, where most
of her vacations are taken. She has
been in charge of the legislative de-
partment of the federation for the
past SIX years, drawing up the meas
ures advanced by the federation, and
working to secure their passage.
Among the laws which Miss Viii
son has secured are the two consti
tional amendments giving women the
right to act as Notary Public, and the
right of suffrage, the joint guardian
ship BILL giving parents equal
rights in their children, the securing
of a State detention home and the
State kindergarten bill. To Miss Will
son belongs the entire credit for the
as court stcnographer she had seen
SO many cases of delinquents that her
heart was set upon providing a school
where these boys and girls might re-
ceive special training. After she sue
ceeded i'll having the bill passed ap-
propriating the money for the home,
she introduced to the Fe Iteration Cal
vim Derrick, whose success with this
class of boy is nationally recognized.
is nationally recognized, in the hopes
that our Nevada school might be
started along advanced lines instead
making the detention home a penal
institution. But club women had to
learn. They may pass bills and or
iginatc ideas, but the organization OF
these institutions and the enforcement
of the laws are still in the hands of
politicians, so that offices are filled
on account OF political obligation in
stead OF personal fitness.
Miss Wilson will address the COM
ing convention, outlining the proposed
new laws governing the property
rights of married women. She has
been studying this question for several
years, but so far considers no really
satisfactory laws have been passed by
the various States.
To know Miss Wilson is to have
known the most womanly OF women,
who is dedicating her life to the in
terests of women and children.

l'precautions that are being taken is
fast gaining the confidence of the
housewife, SO that she is gradually un-
loading herself of such household du-
ties as canning fruits and vegetables
and baking her bread
No more necessary factors in the
promoting of food consumption are
known to exist than purity and clean
illness of product. This fact has forced
itself upon the attention of large can
uers and food supplicrs in al the i'm
portant canning sections of the coun-
try, and while it is known the unclean
cannery is still in evidence, the care
/ less packer is the small minority
That sanitation is recognized as a big
asset by large majority of the can
rers in this country is attested by the
fact that the government inspection
of plants is invited and that Gamers
themselves have been instrumental in
having passed law regulations
providing for strict sanitation. Pro-
gressive interests are alive to the fact
that the creation of a needed increase
in demand for canned goods can only
be accomplished by winning the CON
fdecce of the consumer
Recent investigation has developed
the fact that thousands of consumers
pass up canned foods because they
associate the production OF the pro-
ducts with unsaritary plants. = 1t has
been found also that many consumers
erroaeusly believe that canned foods
represent the stale fresh products
from the orchards and fields that
could not be marketed owing to sur
plus These prcjudices, it is asserted,
must be removed before Gamers can
deperd upon the amount OF conf
dence required to absorb the annual
put OF the thousands of plants now
engaged in the biggest single indus
try in this country. The most import
ant step in this direction seems to be
purity and cearliness of product.
The writer is interested especially
in the industries of the West, and has
visited many OF the factories for in
formation to be used in the prepara-
ton OF educational articles for flu
ture publication in The New West
Magazine. The women of the West
are interested in knowing how our
western food products are prepared.
1t was pleasant surprise recently
to read in a Utah newspaper an adj
vertisement inviting the genaral pub
lie to visit the canning factory and
see the manner in which tomatoes
were canned. While thousands read
the advertisement who did not ac-
cept the invitation, still they were in
f1uenced by it and their confidence in
creased thereby The fact that the
Gamer threw open his doors and dis
played the welcome sign convinced
them that he was not afraid of inspec

fire-drying is only less than that from
freezing.
The corn is not safe for storage or
exposure to cold weather quite as soon
as the appearance of the kernels
might indicate because there is so

the cob is so much slower in drying
than the kernels. Be sure not to store
while there is still moisture enough in
the cob to cause heat or mclding,
Each ear should be so placed in wire

THE MODERN GLADlOLUS
By GEORGE S. WOODRUFF.

Everybody knows the gladiolus-in
a way. 1t has been called The Peo-
pies Flower" because the common
people can get more satisfaction out
of it, without special care or facilities,
than from any other flower. AS a cut
flower, nothing but the expensive or.
child lasts so long and no other flower
has such variety and beauty Of color
ing.
Nevertheless. the modern gladiolus
is almost unknown to large majority
of our people, because of the great i'm
provement which has been made In a
comparatively short time.
The gladiolus is propagated by d.
rect multiplication. by cormels and by
seeds The CORN planted dies at the
end Of the season, but produces n new
one at the base OF each shoot 1t sends
up: so that the rap!dty Of multiplied
