FARMERS SCHOOL
MEETS APPROVAL
PRESIDENT HOLLAND, OF w. S.
C. INDORSES PLAN FOR THE
GREAT COLLEGE

The various farm organizations OF
the United States recently met in
| Washington, D. c., and perfected a
plan for building and endowing a
great school to teach agriculture and
kindred topics Of special interest and
Importance to the farming classes.
1t was proposed to raise $8,000,000 to
build, equip and endow the school.
Thirty one farmer organizations were
. represented. President Holland, of
w. S. c., Pullman, has indorsed the
project. His letter follows:
September 23, 1918
estate President, A. A. Elmore,
Farmers Educationl and Cooperative
Union of America, 608 Empire State
Bldg, Spokane, Wash.-Dear Mr.. Ell
more: I thank you for your letter
of the eighteenth instant calling my
attention to the movement for the
erection of a Temple of Agriculture
at the national capital.
"In my opinion, the various farm
organizations of this country should
have permanent offices IN Washing
ton, D. G. Furthermore, there should
be erected at the national capital
splendid building where the repre-
sentatives of various farmers or
ganizations may meet and consider
in what ways the agricultural inter
ests of this country can render i'm
portant service to the nation and the
world. | am convinced too, that the
nationwide farmers organizations
will be able to render important serv-
ice to the United States Department
of Agriculture and to the various
land grant institutions of this coun
try; yy,r, Il, ex,
ers must organize in order to make
a careful study of their needs and
opportunities. Too often in the past,
the farmer has had to move blindly
in an attempt to render service. Ere
ouently, too he and his neighbors
have had to accept for their products
prices that were fixed by their COM
petitors, and, as a consequence, the
farmer was less able the following
years to maintain his family and to
render important service to the
country.
Because of the world war and the
scarcity of food, the position of the
farmer has become most important
one. Possibly for the first time in
the past hundred years the world has
to realize the important place
of the farmer in civilized life. The
leadership of the agricultural forces
Of America will be greatly needed to
assist in the solution of the social
and economic problems of the recon-
struction period following the war.
'This letter is to inform you of |
NY hearty approval of the erection
If a Temple of Agriculture in the
capital, to serve as general I
for the organized farm
,rs Of America.
"Yours very sincerely,
"E. o. HOLLAND,
president, State College of
Washington"

$40 for the Mess Fund.

w. H. McDermott, who is in charge
of the work at the Idaho National
Harvester plant where 300 S. A. T. C.
men are working, turned $40 into
The Star-Mirror office today for the
soldiers mess fund. This money was
paid by j. W. Verdon, who had some
work done on his car at this plant.
The men are not permitted to take
pay for the work, which is done as
part of their training, but nearly
every one who has a car repaired
there (and the work is thoroughly
done) is willing to pay for the work.
This money is taken by Mr.. McDer-
mott and turned over to the mess
fund and goes to buy delicacies not
furnished on the regular menu, for
the soldiers. Work is just getting
we'll started there now and it is hop
ed a nice sum will be secured in this
way. The Star Mirror recently turn
ed over to Lieutenant Cook, in charge
of the barracks in the Stewart build
ing, $138.80 which had been donated
for the soldiers mess fund. 1t is
hoped to receive a much larger sum
than this. There are about 80 cars
in the shops now being repaired and
if each owner only gives SIS (Which
will be much less than the work would
cost elsewhere) that means $3.50 for
the mess fund.

THE STAR-M|RR0R BILL IS
INTRODUCED IN CONGRESS

Last summer The Star Mirror said
editorialy that the dead letter office
which cost several million dollars year
could be dispensed with if the govern
ment would make rule that no first
class mail would be forwarded without
it contained the name and address of
the sender, treating mail without these
the same as mail without stamps. Bur-
ton L. French, congressman from this
district, read the editorial and acted
upon it. He introduced bill providing
that letters mailed without the sender's
name and address shall bear increased
postage. The bill introduced by Con-
gressman French has been sent to The
Star-Mirror by Mr.. French, who asks
the editors opinion of it and says he
introduced it after reading the editorial,
believing the suggestion is a good one.
The bill follows:
"a BILL
"To eliminate the necessity for most of
the expenses and work in connection
with the Dead Letter Division of the
Post Office Department.

cept postal cards, shall be as follows:

BREAD MADE WITHOUT SUGAR
TWO Processes Said to Have Been
Worked Out by Milling Company
Of kanoas City.

A method Of making bread with
neither sugar nor malt has been
worked out by milling company Of
Kansas City, according 90 the Bakers
Helper. This process uses germ mid
dlings, which are ordinarily sold for
live stock food. Seven pounds Of
live stock food. Seven pounds Of
germ mlddllngs are weighed out for
use with 100 pounds of flour, placed
In vessel and scalded with water.
After Il has stood for a short time,
the residlum Is strained out and the
water Is used In making up the
dough, adding as much water as Is
necessary. Sponge made in this way
without the use Of sugar or malt
shows nm increased expansion, with n
loaf Of fine texture and exceptional
flavor, Il trlfle whittier thnn when
sugar is used in baking. The process
has bene perfected in the milling
company's laboratory, and is now be-
ing applied commercially. Another
process consists In taking per cent
of the flour to he used In the bread
batch and let It stand for several
hours in five times its volume Of wa
ter, at a uniform temperature of $50
degrees. This makes sugar unnec-
cssary, but does not dispense with
the desirabillty Of using malt.

TRY A BURLAP KNITTING BAG
Make Useful and Beautiful
Convenience.

Some day, when you want change
from the brilllant-hued knitting bag,
try cOncocting yourself one of burlap.
Choose any color that you want, a
natural colOred one, for instance. Make
just plain rectangular bag, quite deep
so that there will be plenty of room for
that sweater that you are working on
or any other knitting; turn up each
of the lower corners slightly, to make
it hang bit more gracefully, and
gather the top with ruffled heading.
If a stiff, easily opened top is de-
sired, a pair of bag sticks, finished
off with balls at each end and painted
some gay color, may be bought and
inserted, instead of the more ordinary
draw-string. Cotton cords, to match
the burlap, may be attached to these
sticks as handles.
AS for decoration, one might make
such a bag attractive with very little
work. A conventional puattern, the
popular basket of flowers, or some

IDEAS FOR SUMMER SAsHEs
-lowered Ribbon Effects Afford Wide
Variety Of Acceptable Designs
for Various Gowns.

Not only does mOire ribbon make
excellent sashes, but so does the wide
satin ribbon which hangs in graceful
soft folds. In the shops one finds a
wide variety of all sorts of lovely rib
bons for sashes, many of them in flow
cred effects, brlght-colOred blossoms
woven into ribbon with more somber
hue for background. Some of them
seem to be embroidered on. Other wide
ribbons have floral or conventional
design worked into them in metallic
threads either silver or gold, and these,
too, make handsome sashes.
1t would be an easy thing to make
an original and beautiful sash by TAX
ing, Eor example, the required length
of black satin ribbon and embrOider-
ing the ends, either in silks or chenille
or beads. In fact, one could make as
many as one wanted, sashes to match
all ones gowns. Perhaps, who knows?
