MUELLER EXPLAINS
INCREASED EXPENSE
OF LEVEL BRIDGE

When asked why it would cost more
than twice as much to construct iev-
ell bridge than it would to construct a
slanting bridge over the Whitewater
at the Main street crossing yesterday
afternoon, Mr.. Mueller replied:
"A level bridge increases the height
The columns have to be enlarged 10
bear the excess weight and the whole
structure must be more massive. BE-
side this comes the extra length which
requires added construction"
Somebody else pointed out that add
ed to this would be the damages to
railroad, private and company proper
ty, which would have TO be paid.

WASTE IN THE HOUSEHOLD
Buy the NonbreakabIe Kind of Uten.
siIs and Then See That They
Are Well Cared For.

Brooms, scrubbing brushes and soap
are wasted needlessly. Brooms should
be hung by the handle or rested on
the handle Scrubbing brushes should
be put to dry with the bristles down,
Soap should be kept in wire dish to
prevent dissolution by the water.
Pastry brushes and grease brushes
should be washed and rinsed as soon
as they are used, and put to dry. Old
tablecloths should be cut into squares
and hemmed to use over the table OF
as screens for bread, buns or when
cooling cakes They also make ex'
ceedingly nice window or silver cloths,
Save the salt and flour bags and use
them for green's, lettuce and parsley
that are to be put on the ice.
Furnish your kitchen, if you wish to
be truly economical, with nonbreak-
able utensils. Insist on their being
properly cared for and see that each
utensil is used for the purpose in
tended.
To prevent breakage use granite
ware plates in your refrigerator in
stead of stoneware, granite mixing
bowls instead of the old-fashioned vel
low earthen bowls and tincups for
measuring purposes. = Good House

Tasty Outlets.

Boil half a pound of macaroni for
half an hour in salted water, strain
and cut into inch lengths. Have
ready half pound of finely chopped
veal. Melt in a small steWpan one
ounce of butter and tablespoonful
of -four, add a teaspoonful Of milk,
pepper and salt, and powdered mace
to taste. Cook all together for few
moments, stirring constantly; add the
beaten yolk OF an egg, with the maca.
roni and veal. Stir all together and
simmer for few moments. Pour on
to a fiat buttered dish, and when cold
cut into neat outlets, flour we'll dip
into egg and breadcrumbs, and fry
in fat. Drain well, and serve with

HAVE COVER FOR THE CORN
Vegetable Loses Much of Its Delicious
Flavor if 1t Is Allowed to
Become Cold.

In spite of the weather in which
corn on the ear is served, the vege-
table cools off very rapidly and, there
fore loses much of it's deliciousness.
To preserve the good taste of the
corn it is quite essential that every
housekeeper be supplied with corn
cover. This can be made from q
square of heavy linen with the cor
ners cut out. Finish the edge with a
buttonhole scallop. On the outer Zap
Of the cover stamp dainty design;
a wreath Of eyelets and a few solid
petals will be sufficient Embroider
the word Corn on the flap also The
size of the case can be determined by
the size of the family-or, in other
words, by the amount of corn that is
served on the table
Similar covers with the flaps
changed slightly and possibly the
shapes differed, can be made for toast,
rolls or hot biscuit In fact, house
keeper cannot have too many cases for
various purposes. BY making sew
eral cases from one piece of linen one
can economize in the cutting of the
material, a point always worth re-
membering.

DIFFERENT IN ARIZONA.

We are in the habit of saying here
in Arizona that our farming is pecu-
liar and different from that in other
parts of the country. To a certain
degree this is true, but fundamen-
tally farming in this state does not
differ from that elsewhere. When w
geG right down to brass tacks we find
that the staple agricultural products
in Arizona are grain, potatoes, cotton
hay, and cattle and hogs, as they are
III the other states But many set
tiers have come to Arizona with the
idea that there was something about
this state which would enable them
this one object in view they are con
stantly trying one crop or one kind
Of livestock after another always
finding in the end that it would not
make them fortune. The fact of
the matter is that this getting rich
quick in farming is as elusive and
deceptive as is the pot of gold at
the end of the rainbow. There is
Just one way to make money farming
IN Arizona, that is, to secure the ad-
vice of competent experts in work
ing out conservative adapted plan
Of agricultural development for the
various sections of the state, and for
al the farmers in those sections to
oecomeapart of those plans and stick
to them until results are secured In

ULTIMATUM TO GERMANY.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-Presi
dent Wilson told congress assembled
in joint session, shortly after one
O'clock this afternoon, that he had
given Germany irrevokable not1flca-
ton that the United States will break
off diplomatic relations if her illegal
submarine campaign is continued.
The note, Americas S last word, prac-
tically an ultimatum, and demanding
an immediate reply, presumably was
in the Berlin foreign office as the
president was speaking. 1t was dis
patched last night in accordance with
the presidents plan to have it be-
fore the German government at the
same moment he was addressing the
American congress.
The president has asked no action
whatever of congress. He simply in
formed it of the accumulation OF
facts proving that Germany's assur-
ances to the United Statees are be-
ing violated; that the submarine cam
paign, despite the earnest protests OF
the United States, is being conducted
with renewed vigor in contravention
of all the laws of nations and human
ity, and that he means to sever re-
altions until it is brought within the
law. The diplomatic history of the
world shows that such course is
almost certain to be followed by war.
The presidents note and his ad-
dress to congress are final. They
mark the end of diplomatic exchange
A continuance of the long standing
friendly relations between the two
countries, the president made clear
depends solely on Germany's conduct

when other foods become scarce and
costly. 1t is father or perhaps one of
the big boys in the family who sug-
gests that oyster season has just be-
gun and that these are far cheaper
and more nutritious than many costly
cuts of meat
Sauce for Raw Oysters.-Take one
dessertspoonful of tarragon vinegar,
one tablespoonful of olive oil, one
half teaspoonful of worcestershire
sauce, the juice of half a lemon and
one-half teaspoonful of tabasco sauce
Add little salt and half an onion,
grated fine.
Oyster Cocktail.-For each glass
take six small oysters, two teaspoon
fuls lemon juice, one teaspoonful wor-
cestershire sauce, two tablespoonfuls
tomato catchup, a dash of tabasco
sauce, a pinch of salt and little
sugar. Serve ice cold
Oyster Cocktail.-Have oysters very
cold. Put not more than six in each
cocktail glass or sherbet cup, and just
before sending to the table cover with
a dressing made in the following way:
Mix together one tablespoonful of
mushroom catchup, two tablespoonfuls
of strained lemon juice, five drops of
tabasco sauce and salt to taste. This
quantity will make three cocktails.
Serve thin slices of brown bread and
celery with the cocktails.
