col. WHITE STILL BOOSTING.

Col A.. A. White Of st. Paul, who
two years ago purchased from tho
government Wild Horse island and a
large number Of villa sites on Flat
head lake, was in Butte yesterday.
The colonel believes there Is no more
beautiful country lying out OF doors
than that found along the shores OF
Montana's greatest lake and he has
backed this sentiment by investing "A
large sum of money there In real es-
tate. With the opening of the new
branch OF the Northern Pacific run
ming from Dixon to Poison, it is prob
able that more cities of this state
will become familiar with this most
charming section OF Montana 1t Is
certainly an ideal region for the To-
cation of summer homes and anyone
who visits this region at once will APP
preciate this fact. The colonel al
most single handed Is doing n great
deal to advertise tho Flathc3d country
In the east and he Is entitled to tht
hearty support OF the people Of this
commonwealth in these efforts.--Adv

HOW STALE BREAD
CAN BE UTILIZED

Bread is the food most commonl!
wasted in American households, says
the State College Of Agriculture. Be
cause bread has been the most inc,
years it has often been wasted: now
the habit persists in spite OF its in
creased cost.
Good, fresh bread has spongy tex
ture. which in time disappears, leaving
il dry and crumbly, the moisture
gradually passing out through the
crust. Bread a little too stale to be
appetizing may be freshened by put
ting 1t into the oven for a few min
utes. Rolls and biscuits which have
greater surface in proportion to their
size dry ont more rapidly than loaves
OF bread. These may be freshened by
inmersing them quickly in boiling
water and putting them into a hot
oven to dry out. They may be served
hot and will taste as fresh as when
first baked.
The use Of bread crumbs for seal
loped dishes, stuffing meats and in
frying Is not new to most housekeep-
ers. 1t is pointed out. however, that
few persons realize that bread crumbs
may be used as a substitute for part
OF the flour in cakes. cookies dpud :
dings. The crumb of the interior OF
the loaf. or that of quick breads
should be used in preference to the
crumb OF the crust in the following
recipes:
PANcAkES.s
One cup crumbs, two and q quarter
cups skim milk. one-half cup flour
four teaspoonfuls baking powder, on.
teaspoonful salt, sugar. fat, one egg
Soak crumbs in milk for three quar-
ters hour. Add other ingredients and
cook like ordinary pancakes.
INDIAN PUDDING.
One cup fine crumbs, one quar-,
skim milk. one-third cup sugar, tw.
tablespoonfuls melted butter or othe,
rat. one-quarter cup molasses, one.
quarter teaspoonful ginger. cloves
cinnamon. Scald the crumbs in milk
add other ingredients: bake one ant
one-half hours in slow oven. Varia.
ton: Use stale corn bread crumbs.

United States Government
Aid Solicited by Mail
Order Houses

An effort has recently been made to have the United
State Government stand sponsor for the newest
scheme for bringing the producer and consumer into
direct business relations.
Bills have been introduced both in the Senate and
the House OF Representatives to create National
Chamber Of Agriculture 1t seems to appear that
this is merely gigantic scheme of the bigger mail
order houses to further their interests.
The formulation of the plan to have Uncle Sam pro-
mote the "direct-order trade is man of wide note,
Who it has been learned is backed by former presi-
dent of one Of the big mail order houses
certain United States Senator is also "n the
scheme, and has allowed the mailing under his frank
ing privilege of large edition of document entitled
Direct Dealing Between Producer and Consumer
1t is said that more than million of these pamphlets
have been mailed under this Senator's franking prvi-
lege. Also that they were printed at the expense OF
the mail order houses.
The pamphlet is a direct appeal of the mail order
houses and it is made to appear that the United States
Government is back Of the scheme.
- The above shows clearly to just what lengths these
mail order dealers will go to ence trade that right
fully belongs to the local merchants.
Are we, as loyal Americans, going to help in the
ling these "Vultures Of BUSINESS?
Or will we, each one OF us, resolve that not one
penny goes from city to swell the Golfers of these
unscrupulous out-otoWn concerns, who have no
other interest in us than to get our money?

LATE PEACHES PEACHES BADLY
DAMAGED BY FREEZE

Several we'll known men from the
peach growing section around Monte
yuma, Marshallville and Ft. Valley
were in Americas yesterday on bus!-
ness mission, and in discussing the
fruit situation with a representative of
the Times-Reeorder, made some rather
startling statements.
The 1917 crop OF Elbertas and Geor-
gia Bellies has been badly damaged by
the heavy frosts which visited this
section a few weeks ago. One of the
owners of large peach orchards stated
that in his opinion practically 80 per
cent. of the late peaches have been
lost. although it is probable that in
some instances, where the orchards
had particularly good protection from
the biting wind, the damage will not
amount to this figure.
The early varieties of fruit were
not hurt so badly, said the fruit men.
The big orchards around Marshall
Vile and Ft. Valley are being care
fully watched for developments, and I
is hoped that conditions will prove to
be less serious than at present antici-
pated.

.CLO1URE RULE IS
TAKEN Up BY THE
SENATE CONSENT

WASHINGTON, D. c.. March s.
A cloture amendment to the senate
rules, approved by both the republican
and democratic caucusses, will be tax.
en- up in the senate under unanimous
consent, and its passage is assured.
Senator Lewis, of Illinois, the demo-
cratic whip. announced this afternoon
he would introduce resolution de-
claring it to be the sense of the senate
that the president, by virtue of the
power of his office, has the right 20
protect American commerce with for
eign nations, especially commerce be-
tween sovereign states. The resolu-
ton, the adoption of which is extreme
ly, may not have any effect except to
express officially the sentiment of the

Wilson MAY Act ANY Time.

4 WASHINGTON D. c., March s.
accumulated today thai
President Wilson is likely to act at
any time in the armed ship situation
for although the president is confined
to his bed with a cold. he is still con-
sidering the question.
Some administration officials believ.
ed this afternoon he would not act
this week, while Others believe he
will wait until the senate revises its
rules before taking decisive step.
There is also a strong sentiment
that the president will act along the
line of calling an extra session CT con-
gress in the very near future, and in
asmuch as there is general agree
ment that an extra session will be-
come necessary at some time before
July 1st to consider appropriation
bills that failed to pass during the re-
cent session, there is come disposition
to think 1t should be called at once.
