For garnishing meats, fritters Of

If you want color on the fish plat

these will last all winter, as only q
little is needed. When you have

Tomato is also bright garnish and

that you buy ready stuffed with pimo-

readily. Slice them across the
stutiing and you have little green rings
with red centers that improve salad

Mashed potatoes can be formed into
baskets and baked so they hold their

has been spent displeases thoughtful

Thus far no test vote has been taken
which throws any light on the wetness
or dryness of the legisla ture.
Assemblyman SzcweZykowski Of Mil.
waukee is working on bill along the
line of regulation. His measure pro-
practically unlimited authority to regu
late the liquor traffic. He says his sug-
gestion has the support of saloon men
who are trying to improve their bust
ness. BY placing broad regulatory
powers in the hands of commission,
to be composed of three members ap-
pointed by the governor, he believes
the saloons would be taken out of poll.

sible for most of the agitation to vote
Wisconsin dry.
SzcweZykowski's bill is substantially
the same as the one introduced by for
mer Senator John Kletzcka of Milwau
of the measure has not decided what
salary he will suggest for the members
Of the proposed commission, but the
amount may be fixed at $4,000 year.
It is believed opposition will be fur
nished by members of senate and as
sembly who frown upon the creation Of
any new commissions, the tendency Of
this legislature being to consolidate
boards or to do away with some of
them.
Members who are back Ct the refer
endum idea on prohibition are giving
much thought to the bill to be intro
duced. They aim to make it air tight,
SO that when it comes in it will not be
open to amendment. A tentative draft
has been prepared, but the bill is not
likely to come in until the dry forces
get their bearings.
The announcement in the assembly
by Assemb1yman Everett, chairman OF
the finance committee of the lower
house, that all of the financial bills
may be in by Feb. Is was the first prac-
tical demonstration of the work which
is being done to shorten the session.
The joint finance committee broke
all records when it held it's first meet
ing in the second week of the session,
and another record was broken when it
disposed of seventeen minor appropria-
tioMs. The recommendations Of the
state board of public affairs were close
ly followed.
