Mata For Potted Plants.

Leftover pieces Of oilcloth or ljno-
leum can he cut any shape or size and
by being painted or varnished make
excellent mats for potted plants and
flowers. They can be painted any de-
sired color and are easily cleaned by
wiping with damp cloth. These mats

POOLED WOOL CROP OF GRANT
COUNTY DELIVERED.

The Grant County News says:
"The pooled wool in Grant County
was delivered here. There were 49,
600 pounds of wool in the pool. The
price was IS cents pound, or 77.5
after deducting expenses. 1t is not
probable that there was more than
80 per cent. of Grant COunty's total
crop of wool in the pool, which would
show a total production for this
county of 100000 pounds. The deal
ers bought the wool which was not
pooled at II and 70 cents per pound
The average price paid the grower
was probably about 70 cents, includ-
ing the pooled product. This would
give wool growers Of the county
$116,800, pretty nifty sum from
this source. Estimating four pounds
to the fleece, there should be about
10000 sheep in the county. These
sheep will average at least one lamb
to eve. At the prices being paid
for lambs at the present time they
will average at least So per head,
and should give the sheep men and
wool growers $480,000 for lambs, or
a total of nearly 100000 for wool
and lambs combined"

WHEATLESS AND MEATLESS
DAYS SOON TO BE OVER.

WASHINGTON, July 22.-Relief
for the United States from wheatless
and meatless days is near. Both
were adopted as temporary expedi-
ents. With bumper crop of wheat
already being reaped, relaxation of
the voluntary wheatless program of
the Food Administration can be ex-
pected within the next two weeks.
The country will probably be
asked to accept victory bread as its
staple bread base, or a mixture of 80
per cent wheat -four and 20 per cent
substitutes.
Americas allies in Europe will con-
tinue using a mixed bread, and it is
the plan to keep the entire allied
world on a similar dietic basis, so far
as may be possible. But the wheat
less days will go.
Beetles and meatless days also
will go about August 1. These are
the big features of the new con-
servation program, but the same con-
ditions which cause the abandonment
of the wheatless days have
President to decide to vett =
fixing the price of wheat =
bushel at primary markets.
