TELLS HOW TO MAKE
OWN CEREAL FOODS

Pulletin 112 by Chemist Geo. A.
Olson of the STATE College, gives Il
simple way of making flour and eel
cal foods at home, from whole wheat,
corn, rye, hulless oats and hulless
barley. The method was discovered
b" Mr.. Olson, BEGINNING with some
Investigations of different ways in
which homemade" cereal foods
could be made.
The essentials of the Olson discoy-
cry consist N soaring the grain iii
it is soft, then putting it through a
food chopper till the soaked mass is
well pulyerized and mixed After
this it may be used for the making
Of whole wheat or corn bread, and
cereal foods. To make bread, the
crushed material is used in stead of
flour the other processes of prepar-
ing and baking being the same, less
water being necessary to mix the
dough, on account of the moisture al
ready present in the soaked grain.
To make breakfast food. the
crushed materi,1, wheat. corn, or de-
sired mixtures OF corn and wheat, is
baked in the oven either as it comes
from the food chopper, or in thinly
rolled-out forms, which later are
broken up and stored in glass jars for
future use. Shortening, seasoning,
the addition Of sugar, or fresh or
dried fruits, or cheese, are possibili-
ties for the making of this kind Of
breakfast food, which is quite palat-
able. Many members of the State
College faculty, and of the town of
Pullman are already using the Olson
process in their bread-making, and
for the production of homemade GER
cal and breakfast food.

DIVISION OF FUNDS
OF SM|TH-HUGHESA ACT
State Board Gives Training of
Teachers i'm Trades and Industries
to University

The state board has submitted a
second and what is expected to be
the final draft OF its plan for voca-
tional education in the state of
Washington. 1t is different in some
respects from the original plan
adopted by the board of education
some time ago at its meeting in Spo-
kane.
BY the terms of the federal law
the state will receive approximately
$4,000 during the present year for
the payment of the salaries of teach
ers, supervisors and directors of ag-
riculture and teachers of trades, the
Industries and home economics in the
public schools, and for the training
of teachers and supervisors of agri-
culture and of teachers of industries,
trades, and home economics. The
federal government will contribute
the money on condition that the
state or the local community or both
will contribute an am cunt equal to
that given by the government. The
amount allotted to a state is based
on it's population, rural, urban, and
total
The plan of the state board which
is now before the federal board for
its approval provides for a state di-
rector of vocational education and
one or two assistant directors.
Teachers of agriculture are to be
trained at the State College; teach
ers of home economics at the State
College and at the University; and
teachers of trades and industries at
the University The division is
made although at the first meeting
of the state board to con-
slider this work, the teacher training
in the trades and industries was
equally divided.
1t Is the intention of congress to
extend vocational education by
means of federal grants downward to
secondary schools and to stimulate
the states to carry on vocational
training on a large scale in agricul-
ture, home making the trades and
the industries.
The recent ruling of the state
board will not be of much import
ance this year, but it will become in
creasingly important when the work
is enlarged and additional funds are
available

NO NEWS Is GOOD NEWS

Although the failure to receive
pleasant to relatives and friends at
home the adage mo news is good
news" never was more true than at
present. The report of every cas-
ualty at home or abroad is immedi-
ately wired or cabled to officials at
Washington, being relayed from
there without loss of time to the
emergency address of the soldier or
sailor affected. 1t is also at once re-
leased for publication in the news
papers. No news of casualties has
or will be held up.
No man in the service has received
orders not to write home; he has
been urged, on the contrary, to keep
in touch with relatives and friends.
The forces in France have at their
disposal post cards giving general in
formation in regard to health and

Care is also taken to see that

ors reaches them promptly. Where

nation of a soldier is not known it

NOVICE GROWS
 WONDER COTTON

The bumper first picking of cotton reported thus far at the Goodyear g.n in Phoenix is that of Henry Scott who is farming the Miller ranch at the cor ner of Northern and Seventh avenues. His first picking, coming from not over two feet above the ground, is averaging very close to 900 pounds of seed cotton to the acre, with minimum valuation of s160 an acre. This yield is harly more than a third of that to be expected from the ground, which experts estimate will run up to bale and a half to the acre for much of the 32 acres in cotton.
 Mr Scott, who came to Phoenix last January from Los Angeles, does not claim to be an expert cotton raiser and never was in cotton field elsewhere He credits his success solely to the care with which he followed out the in- structions of E. W. Hudson, expert for the Southwest Cotton company, whose talks on the proper care of Arizona Egyptian cotton fields he declares should not have been missed by any farmer. The Scott field is beautiful one with plants almost uniformly six feet in height and with every stage of cotton development visible now, from the ripened bolls below to the opening flowers on the topmost twigs.
