THANK YOU

We owe the public Of Augusta and vicinity this
word of Acknowledgement for the cordial
spirit in which they helped us open our store
here
The welcome we received here could scarcely
have been more inspiring to greater effort to
prove that the publics opinion in us is not mis-
placed.
It was not so much that our sales ran beyond
our expectations, this WI something to be
proud of, of course but better still were the
words Of kindly welcome which fell from the
lips of every customer and visitor.
Mere thanks, however earnest they may be,
fall short of the occasion.
We eintend to pay our debt of gratitude in bet
ter way, by selling better clothes on Markson's
method of charge account, and a bigger
moneys worth.

HOW SNAKES HELP farmer
Man Who Knows Points Out How
Valuable to the TIlIer Of tho
Soil Are Their Services.

Snakes are a valuable asset and
there should be a campaign against
killing them. writes Gayne Il. X. Nor
ton, in the American Forestry Maya
zine. The article goes on to show
what the snake does for food conser-
walton by ways Of killing rodents and
insects, the greatest enemies to grain
that man knows. The public has be-
come acquainted with snakes as never
before, writes Mr.. Norton, because Of
the thousands who have been engaged
In the campaign for war gardens that
has been conducted by the national
emergency food garden commission.
with this summer the millions of
war gardens have given the snake pop
ular interest. Tremendously increased
tillage has brought people and snakes
together.
unless much education work is
done the number of snakes that will
be killed next year by the well-mean-
ing but mlsinformed gardeners will be
very large. Our snakes are national
asset worth many millions of dollars
and should be conserved. The rela-
ton they bear to successful crops Is
important-more important than even
the average farmer realizes"
The Oakley herald. [volume] (Oakley, Idaho) 1908-1961, 1918-08-23

Brides who feel that war times, or
other reasons, demand simple we'd
ding, with only one or two attendants,
may still wish to be married In bridal
white. The summer gives them splen-
did opportunities to indulge this de-
sire. All the delicate, sheer, white fab
RIGS for frocks-organdie, batiste and
geOrgette-are at their command for
beautiful gowns, and there are ma
lines, georgette, organdle and neapoli-
tan, or hair braids, from which to
choose hats. The addition Of veil to
these big picture hats for midsummer
Ats them for the wedding ceremony,
and when 1t Is taken Off their useful
ness for the honeymoon begins.
Just how successful the summer
bride may be, If she elects to content
herself with simple wedding dress

or with a dressing of bacon fat that
we must remind ourselves that it is
both tasty and wholesome cooked as
one does any vegetable. When lettuce
gets a little old is the best time to
turn it into green's. Dress it with
butter, pork fat, or in any way to
give 1t good seasoning 1t may be
cooked until tender. then served with
thin cream or milk, with seasonings
as one does tender cabbage.
Cucumbers are another vegetable so
forget how good they are cooked I'M
til tender and served with butter
sauce, seasoning with onion juice,
salt and pepper.
Swiss chard is a vegetable which
should find its way into every garden.
When very young 1t may be used as
a crisp salad with French dressing,
and when well grown as green's. Spin
ach is another most wholesome green
which, when eaten freely in the spring
and summer. will supply all the iron
needed In most diets. In this season
of the year when there is sucl
wealth of fruit and vegetables we
should see that they are served every
day upon our tables. For those who
accuse the salad Of giving them In
digestion, let them look into the whole
meal and especially the salad dress
ing. Mustard when used in even
small quantities will cause stomach
trouble. When using mustard the
merest suggestion is sufficient. French
dressing is easy to make and on the
whole is the most wholesome of salad
dressings. II your family do no. like
olive oil, teach them to like it, for 1t
is quite worth while.
To eat as many potatoes as pos
sible and save the wheat let us have
