careful combining of the two mix

Household Hints

An easy way to boil macaroni is to
put it in a wire fiour-sifter having a
tin handle and immense this in a ket-
tie of boiling water. There will be
not trouble caused by the sticking Of
the macaroni to the bottom of the
kettle and the sitter may be easily lift
ed from the hot water.
A cover for the baby carriage when
the upholstery becomes soiled or much
worn may be easily made and will
look very pretty. Cut a paper pat
tern the size and shape of the back
and sides of the carriage, and make
the cover Of natural-colored linen or
white pique. Finish it with a wash
braid, and make buttonholes along the
edge. On the upholstery Of the car
raige sew pearl buttons, which will
keep the cover in place. The cover
can easily be removed when it needs
washing.
The mattresses on a child's crib
may be kept from getting rust-mark-
ed by the wire springs by placing
four window-shade sticks an even
distance apart on top of the springs.
In, cleaning large pieces of silver
avoid extra labor and stained fingers
by applying the liquid silver polish
with a small paintbrush. When par
TALLY dry rub clean with chamois.
When a Saucepan cover seems use
less because the little knob or handle
is lost push a cork part way through
the opening and secure it by driving
a nail an inch or an inch and a half

quart pudding dish.
Cheese may be used in place Of but
ter in similar way in other apple
buildings.
Apple pie made with a layer of

ed apple and baked in the usual way
is liked by many who are fond of
cheese served with apple pie.

A new way to grow hyacinth is
to place the bulb in the center of a
good-sized sponge, set it in a pretty
dish and keep the sponge wet con-
stantly. After the bulb is well start
ed scatter some grass seed over the
surface Of the sponge.
Ribbon often slips out from bead
ing in underwear, causing annoyance.
To overcome this sew a small lace
button on each end of the ribbon or
tape; then the end cannot slip.
When lace is added to round
dolly this suggestion may be a help:
Measure the exact quality of lace
needed, match the pattern and join
the edges. Double the lace and roll
it end to end; then wrap the straight
or inside edge tightly with cord to
half the width of the lace. Dip the
cord end in water to shrink it. Lay
it aside until dry, then remove the
cord and unroll. The lace will be
circular and may easily be sewed to
the dolly.

Warm Hearts Backing the Boys.

The large number of warm hearted
and patriotic people who thronged ths
opera house Sunday evening attested II
no small degree the deep interest oul
community is taking in the welfare OF
the boys who are their representatives
in the great war. Long before the
hour for commencing the program,
every seat and all available standing
room, even to the wings of the stage,
was occupied and hundreds who wished
to do the boys honor were turned
away.
The first speaker of the evening was
Father E. ). Mcdonald. It was his
first appearance in Cresco as speaker
outside of the pulpit of the church
where he is assistant, but he won all
by his logical and we'll delivered pat.
riotic address presenting the issues of
the war, and added the assurance to the
boys that the people of the community
would back them to the fullest extent.
DR.. Kessel, always favorite with
Cresco audiences, followed and COM
menced his talk with sally which pro-
voked a gale of laughter, said that the
occasion was not one of mourning but
one for rejoicing, and then gave talk
filled with thoughts that can come from
only such big hearted man as he.
Robert Thomson followed and called
attention in his forcible way to the
need of money-real money and plenty
of tiff the boys in the army We're to
receive the backing our people prom
ised, money for liberty bonds and war
savings stamps to supply the govern
ment's needs, money for the Y. M. G.
A. and especially money for the local
Red Cross organizations. He called at
tention to the forthcoming Red Cross
auction and explained its plan fully.
The musical part of the program was
distinctly novelty to Cresco audi
enccs. Master Ralph Gesell, a four
year'old prodigy, astonished and de-
lighted the audience with his wonder
full singing of popular patriotic songs,
while the singing of patriotic songs by
the community chorus of GA voices, un-
der the leadership of Rev. Normann,
was highly enjoyed by ell. We trust
that the organization may be continued
for there is need of such in our city.
At the conclusion, after few re-
marks ssssea Ncrmarn. president OF
the Red Cross, under whose auspices
the meeting was held, the boys were
called to the stage and each presented
with comfort kit and smilage book.

A Week Of Implement Inspection and
Repairs.

A conservation and efficiency move-
ment known as the "National Imple-
ment Inspection and Repair Week.
the week of March 4th to 9th inclus-
ive-is being energetically pushed in
this state by the Iowa Implement
Dealers Association of which o. J.
McHugh, of the firm of McHugh &
Lusson, is the president. The move-
ment is nation wide and the U. S.
Food Administration has endorsed it by
sending telegram of approval to Sec
retary Hodge of the Implement Deal
ers National Federation.
The idea is of the highest import
ance and should receive the serious
consideration and earnest cooperation
of every farmer in his own interest, in
the interest Of increased food produce
tion and in the interest of patriotism.
Owing to the scarcity and high
prices of all machinery, many machines
which would ordinarily be junked will
be required to do duty this season and
to do so liberal repairs will be neces>
sary. Repair parts will be hard to OBJ
tain quickly and an eleventh hour
quest for parts may be unsuccessful
and result in loss of money and loss of
precious foodstuffs. Inspection and
repair of farm machinery during the
week of March 4-9, before the rush Of
spring work commences, will uncover
many weak and defective parts that
need renewal and will place the ma
chinery in condition for successful use
except for inevitable breakage during
operation that cannot be foreseen.
Farm papers with combined circu-
lation of 100000 per issue are adj
vocating Inspection and Repair Weeki
state agricultural colleges, county
agents State Council of Defense are
adding to the request andl thel Plain
Dealer asks that locally our farmers
observe the request of the various gov-
agencies that the producersof
the country mechanically equip them-
selves this year especially to plant and
harvest the largest crop in the history
Of our county. Remember the week.
