FEW FOUND TO BE PERFECT
According to Tests Made the Ideal
Husband Seems to Be Some
what Rare Animal.

In a recent husband show each COM
petitor was required to do certain
things and answer certain questions.
says Pearson's Weekly.
The ideal husband answered all the
questions and did all his tasks without
fail
Are you the husband every wife
should have7 II 80:
Can you give the day of the week
you were married on and it's full date1
Do you know when your motherin.
laws birthday ID?
When you left for the office this
morning what kind of dress was your
wife wearing?
Can you say offhand what the mar
ket. prices of eggs. butter. cheese
meat and bread are?
Do you know the cheapest shopping
places in your neighborhoodf
One Of the tests the husbands had
was as follows: The wives stood behind
q curtain and placed one hand above
it. Each husband was required to pick
out his wife's hand A good many
failed!
Do you make a point Of always
praising your wife when sshe has
cooked anything more daintily than
usual?
Do you tell her she's the best wife
In the world?
Have you ever acknowledged to her
that you are wrong and she is right
in any argument?
If you can answer these questions
satisfactorily then you can put your.
self down as the perfect husband-ac-
cording to this interesting and in
structive test, at any rate.

PROHIBITION BENEFITS MILkMAN

Massachusetts man, Investigating
the dairy business in Denver, found
that during the first four months under
state prohibition there was an increase
IN milk sales of over $4,000.
One dairy had milk route in dis
trict where Al saloons had been its
best customers, and the proprietor ex-
pected to take that particular wagon
off. But with the closing of the sa-
looms came the opening of more lunch
counters and milk sales in that district
Increased about SIS day.
There has been little increase in the
better residence districts-Park hill
Capitol hill and the well-to-do parts Of
the North and South sides, where, If
people drank, at least they could also
buy milk. But route around the
stockyards has an increased business
Of $5 day; one around the railroad
shops an increase of SO a day; one in
the district between Curtis and Lari-
mer street, an increase of So a day.

BEAN PRICES SOAR AT
ALL POINTS ON COAST

PORTLAND, Ore. June 2S.-With
the government a heavy buyer of
beans along the Pacific coast and
with holding of good quality exhaust
ed in the east, the price list here is
row showing the highest figures
known by the local trade.
Sensational advances in the price
of beans have been forced both here
and in California as a result of the in
creased business, both from the gov
ernment and from the Atlantic sea-
board.
The real price of small white beans
to retailers here for the day were 10
lac a pound with large white at
9 SAC. So far as the local trade re-
members no such high prices have
ever before been quoted here. While
not all wholesalers are asking as
much as these quotations, still the
prices named are the regular market
basis and these selling for less are
simply slicing their profits with the
retailers.
The Pacific coast this season has
its greatest acreage in beans. While
the greatest increase has been shown
in California, the growth Of the in
dustry in Oregon and Idaho has been
remarkable, and the outlook is for the
