Sixty pictures are being made Of
Seward county views to be sent in
to Washington, d. c., to be made into
films for shows. Last week dozen
and half films were exposed. When
the films are made they will be shown
in Seward county.
There will be q free show at the
Majestic Friday evening, July S, be-
ginning at $3.50, by the State Board
of Health. Mrs. DeVilbiss has sent
us sixty slides on "A Square Deal
for the Baby" and those interested
are invited to attend. There is moth
ing of special interest to children, so
we ask that the seats be given up to
grown people who are interested in
the lecture and pictures.
The gardens of Liberal are just
kept alive, and unless we have rain
soon we cannot expect the children
to keep UP their gardens. We pho
toed the gardens the past week; also
rated them and the children who have
worked faithfully in the Government
Garden Club will be rewarded for
their work just the same as if they
gardened in one of the favorable
counties. The state leader says in a
recent letter, eff it is necessary to
drop the garden work, do not worry
over it." The children's market has
done we'll so far but if the gardens
Ego under" the public market will,
too. We wish to thank all loyal cit
liens who patronize the Government
work in buying their vegetables
through the government war market.
Some day this will be big business
and Liberal will be right with the
older counties in Government Project
work. Do not forget the market
Saturday, $3.50 a. m. to 1 p. m.
Next Saturday the Government
will demonstrate in Mr.. Undertakes
district No. 10. A three days extern
sion school will be held. The dates

The following week the Demon
stration agent is in District No. 8,
July 16, II, and 10. District No. 8
has a school building which is an
honor to their district, also hand
some start of q new community
church. The Union Banner Sunday
School meets at this church. This
district is known for its community
spirit.
Care of Meal in Summer
Hot weather frequently produces
spoilage in cretain fiours and meals
if they are not properly cared for,
especially those which contain high
percentage of fats, moisture, or the
outer coatings Of the grain. To pre-
vent such losses, particularly at this
time when bread stuffs are so essen
tial to the Allies and ourselves, the
following instructions on flours and
meals are given:
Buy small quantities.
See that flours AMI meals are in
good condition when purchased.
/ Keep in cool, dry place.
(a). Use tins or covered jars for
containers.
(b). 1t is we'll to use two con-
tainers, always putting fresh pur-
chases in a clean container, never
mixing with a previous purchase.
Sterilize -four or meal by placig il
in shallow pan or clean cotton con-
tainer in an oven and heating slowly

Too Many Esss Spoil
