"WASTE NOT" A
PATRIOTIC SLOGAN
Some Saving Hints

'Waste not" should never cease
to be patriotic Slogan but should
continue to be such for a period
Of years.
A few hints for saving that ap-
ply to clothing as well as to food
are here given.
Those who know tell us that we
do not grind our coffee fine enough
for use in the common coffee pot,
throwing away much good flavor
that is not used. Tea may also be
ground, getting double the flavor.
Do not throw away the bacon
rind it adds a delicious flavor to
vegetables, taking the place of
butter. A piece of bacon rind add
ed to the dish of string beans or
cabbagt makes a most appetizing
vegetable.
If fruit ferments or sours do not
Thrown it into the garbage; over
with cold water, simmer until all
the Juice is extracted and pour it
into the vinegar jug that is MAX
ing your vinegar. An the rinsings
from fruit jars, jelly glasses and
preserving kettles should be saved
for the homemade vinegar
A little vinegar added to tough
meat while cooking will make 6
tender, palatable, dish wher
cooked.
- Instead of throwing away ths
cores and peelng of pineapple Oh
peaches put them in a kettle with
lwater and let them simmer unit
all the flavor is extracted. Thi!
Juice may be bottled for beverage
or may be added to apple juice
making a jelly or rare flavor.
When baking potatoes, to saw
4 Egas parboil them for five or tel
s minutes, then place in the oven t.
: bake.
e To care for clothes properlI
: latter you have purchased them i
e Ito prevent waste just as much a
v to be economical in buying thos
t same clothes.
= If your hats are of fabric sill
It ncrepe de Chime, Georgette or We
n vet, or have fold of any of thes
d materials around the brim, alway
8 set the hats in a hat bag or hs
X box with the crown downward
d The hats thus resting on the
r crowns will save delicate edG
on a brim from becoming worn
to missed. And ALWAYS keep you
ID hats in bag or box, for there al

Shoes you are not wearing con-
stantly will be kept nicely if they
are slipped, toes first, into a big
paper bag. If the shoes are clean
ed, brushed or polished before
they are put away, when they are
needed they can be Slipped out of
the bag "all ready to wear" If
you do not possess shoe trees, stuff
your shoes with tissue paper. This
will help to keep ugly wrinkles out
of your shoes, a thing that will
make them look old.
When you take off your gloves
always turn them right side out
carefully, smoothing the gloves in
to their proper shape. Put away
in the glove box, they are ready
for use.
Lacking the regular skirt hang
ers, a good substitute is to tacl
small loops of tape onto your belt
at each side seam by which tC
hang up your skirt.
Hangers being a minus quantity
blouses can be we'll cared for i.

CATION by raising the Lost Valley res

80 feet to so feet, or double its pres

ley has been established by prelim-
mary surveys now being made by Stu
art NJ. French the well-known engi-
neer Of Weiser.
Mr.. French finds the landowners
throughout the valley are enthusiastic-
ally in favor of eplarging the dam and
building the NECESSARY canals for ir-
,risating this splendid body of land.
Mr.. French stated the irrigating of
the 5000 additional acres above men
toned would cover practically all of
the irrigable land in Council Valley, or
practically double the present area I'M
der irrigation.
The raising of the Lost Valley dam
80 feet higher would impound 10000
acre feet of water. which with the
normal flow of the Weiser river would
furnish en- abundant supply of water
for every acre of irrigable land in
Council Valley. 1t would provide a
fun water supply for the $4,000 addi-
tiCnal acres, also for every acre in
the valley now<onder irrigation, which
at present has a short supply of wa
ter during the irrigation season.
1t is understood the cost would not
be excessive. The exact figures can
not be given until MIR. French COM
pletes the surveys
Mr.. French stated about 1000 acres
of the ridge or bench between Hornet
creek and the Weiser river can be ir-
r!gated by having a ditch come out
at point about three miles above
Fruitvale. He said from 10000 to H.
900 additional acres in Council VAL
ley proper would be irrigted by the
main canal. which would extend from
! Starkey on the north to Cottonwood on
the south.
The next step after the prelimin-
AIRY survey Is completed will be the
