In her own kitchen of her own home Sister Mary cooks daily for a family of four adults. She brought to her kitchen an understanding of the chemistry of cooking, gained from study of domestic science in a state university. Consequently the advice she offers is a happy combination or theory and practice. Every recipe she gives is her own, first tried out and served at her family table.
 There are two questions regarding the family wash that I'm quite rab1d about. the two "R 'S'--ringinS and rinsinS.
 If the soapy water is not Wrung from the clothes it will take twice as much rinsing to finally get it out. Then too, if clothes are folded for wringing they will iron much easier. Trv folding a kitchen towel and hang ing it straight on the line. It won't need ironing.
 AS to rjnsing, unless clothes are rised carefully they will not stay white and clear Soap left in delicate colored dresses will fade them and rot the fabric. No matter how much clothes are rubbed, if they are not well rinsed through several clear wa ters they will look sort of yellow and grindy.

 Menu For Tomorrow.
 Breakfast--Apples, griddle cakes and syrup, coffee.

KICK ON EGG PRICE
Searle Threatens to Ship Prod
uct to X. c., Denver.
Tells Kemper Hens Cannot Pro-
duce EN- for so Cents.

The threat that Shawnee county
farmers will ship their fresh. eggs to
Kansas City and Denver rather than
sell them in Topeka for so cents a
dozen, is contained in a letter written
by Ralph H. Searle. -Tecumseh stock
man, to w. H Kemper. chairman of
the county fair price committee.
Searle, in his letter, said eggs are
not staple product in winter, but
should be classed with other delicacies.
such as grape fruit.
Every producer knows" he said in
a supplementary communication to
The State Journal. chat this price is
less than the actual cost of production
at this season. AS long as we have to
feed our hens two-dollar wheat and
beef scrap that costs $5.75 per 100
pounds, We can't break even in the
winter time on 50-cent eggs.
If every farmer in Shawnee county
feels as 1 do at this writing, the good
housewives of Topeka who really want
fresh eggs will weep for some other
cause than Joy before they get them at
SO cents per dozen in January! The
Santa Fe is running on regular sehed-
ule both east and west"
Searlc's Protest.
searle's letter to Kemper follows:
My Dear Mr.. Kemper:
1 lNhe my typewriter IN mana to voice a
feeble protest against the arbitrary action
which you have Just taken in fixing the
price nf fresh eggs at 80 cent per dozen,
retail: Your action is just one more lovely
example of the way the farmer always gets
it in the neck when snap-judgment deci-
sions are made by well meaning but mis-
guided individuals in their attempts to
reduce the cost of living.
Before arriving at 80 cents as a "fair'
price for one dozen fresh eggs at this sea-
of the year. did you consult any pro-
ducers Of this commodity, or make any eff
fort whatsoever to ascertain the cost of
producing a dozen eggs? The price which
You have set is the best possible evidence
that you did not.
Fer your enlightenment, permit me to
state that the actual cost of producing
one dozen winter eggs, under average farm
cents. In support of the above assertion,
l can furnish you with the sworn state
ments of every farmer in Shawnee county
who keeps a cost record of the eggs pro-
duced between November L and March l.
Tie fundamental mistake which your
committee has made, Mr. Kemper, is in
CHASING fresh eggs at this season of the
year as n staple food product. Fresh eggs
in January are delicacy, and should be
classed along with other delicacies, such
ns grapefruit fresh pineapples, and hot
house vegetables. As such, 1t is the merest
justice that they sell at a reasonable mar
gin above the cost of production.
My fellow Shawnee county farmers may
do as they please, but as for me and my
neighbOrs, we will ship cur fresh eggs to
Kansas city or Denver.
Very truly yours,
RALPH II. SEARLE.
