HEALDTON NOTES.

The Healdton Commercial Club has
planned to purchase a motor drawn
chemical fire truck and Fleet Cooper
has been appointed to make the pur.
chase. The fire boys have a fund de-
rived from taxes placed upon carnivals
and tent shows and the remainder of
the money needed for the purchase has
been contributed by those who want
adequate fire protection.
Thomas E. Rowland, cashier of the
Security State Bank, has had really
the biggest job Of any man in Heald-
ton. His bank is literally been overrun
with business and he has been putting
on new men and working long hours
for weeks and finally put on a fresh
bunch Of accountants on a night shift
to catch up with his ledger work. He
has recently employed C. F. Clark. a
former business associate, who has had
banking experience both in Iowa and
In Oklahoma. II is planned to make
Mr. Clark an official of the institution.
Rleet Cooper is now doubling the
floor space Of his garage. The garage.
as first built, was replica of the home
OF the Ford in Ardmore and was
thought to be large enough TO take
care of the business but it had not been
in operation two weeks until the own
ers realized it must be made larger.
The Hanon Tailoring Company. of
writ has bought a site at Healdton
and Is putting up a new house.
The Pioneer Telephone Company is
putting in poles in the residence and
business districts Of the city and will
soon be ready to give Healdton people
adequate service.
Collier Bros, who purchased the John
Whiteman store and stock Of dry goods,
have built an addition to the building
that doubles the original floor space.
Small grain about Healdton has made
fine crop and corn and cotton are
both looking good at this time. The
prospects are that there will be a bump
er crop and farmers near Healdton
have good market in the oil field
homes for everything the produce.

IMITATION MILK.
An Artificial Product That Is Giving
Satisfaction in England.

The science of substitution is becoming
a great factor in modern industry. In Eng
land an artificial milk is being manufac-
tured which is claimed to be both whole
some and inexpensive, so that now the
market is not wholly dependent upon the
product of the cows,
The artificial milk is made from peanuts,
soya beans, sugar, water, and mineral
salts. About four hundred grains of po-
tassium phosphate or an equivalent of So
dunn phosphate is dissolved in two hun.
bred pints of water at l7G degrees Fahren-
heit Enough sugar is added to give Al
per cent to the finished product Forty
pounds of meal prepared from the nuts
and beans is stirred in.
The solution is boiled in a steam iacketed
pan; then it is subjected to the operation
of vacuum pan, and, lastly, it is treated
with IA culture of Tactic bacteria until the
required acidity is obtained. After it is
pasteurized and cooled small percentage
of citric acid is added
The milk thus produced may he con
densed and sold in cans, or dried and
powdered, or sold as liquid in bottles
The addition of nut fats will give Ger
tain proportion of cream, BY using sufl
cient Tactic bacteria the product may be
cultured to give table cream or soured
mass for making cheese Popular Science
