In thN kitchen of her own home Sister Mary cooks daily for . 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 happy combination Of theory and practice. Every recipe she gives is her own. first tried out and served at her family table
 tCopTriSht. 1920, x. E. Al
 Mere everyday cooking is really the Knowledge of certain laws of chemls try. The recipe for cake amounts to the same. thing as a form ula of chemistry.
 Every food has elements that act in certain ways on other food, producing chemical changes. The action of sour milk and soda is q simple exam pie. soda is an alkali and when brought in contact with sour milk. which is an acid. the alkuIi neutralizeS the acid. In any dish that q cook prepares some such change takes place, effect ing always a physical change and nearly always a chemical change.
 As a chemist must know how one substance will act another. must cook know how one food will act another The health Of her fam ilH depends on her Knowledge.

Mr. Kuchler will put in the en-

state land systems in order to be
able TO improve the system in vogue
in Arizona when he takes charge
there.
After his sYvey of our land Of

terYiewed by representative OF the

interest in improved stock. He
knew in a general way that good

hand knowledge of this fact. He
attended the auction sale of pure
bred Duroc- Jersey hogs and saw the
splendid animals go through the ring
a prices which looked high in COM
psrison with those he had been re-
ceiving for grade stock. Finally the
desire to own one of these good hogs
became so strong that Mr.. Eddie
blute began bidding Almost before
he was aware OF the fact, a fine
young SOW from the Brauer herd at
Colorado Springs had been knocked
down to him at a good stiff price.
