HOME DEMONSTRATION NOTES
MUTATION Clinics.

Until the schools close, the Home
Demonstration Agent will be required
to give a great part of her time to the
Nutrition work in the schools. The
original plan was to take very linn
tied number Of schools into the work
for the remainder of this school year.
So many requests have come from this
work that we have had to extend our
plan somewhat.
During the past week, about 700
children were examined in the Bonnie
Terre schools. DR.. Evans, DR.. Apple
berry, Dr. Monroe and DR.. Poston have
given wonderful assistance to the
clinic work. Mrs. J. J. Bowman, Mrs.
Dr.. Evans, Mrs. Page, Mrs. r. Doyle,
Miss Fricke and Miss Evers assumed
the responsibility for the Bonnie Terre
work. One cf the biggest days we
have had in the work was in the Pa
rochial shcool, in cooperation with
Mrs. Doyle and her committee.
DR., Parks, of the u. S. Public
Health Service, has come to assist
with the physical examination. She
will probably be in the county a
month or more, working with the
Home Demonstration Agent.
We expect soon to extend these NJ
triton Clinics into five or six of the
rural schools. Next fall we hope to
reach more schools.
Kitchen Flooring.
Spring is here. This means that
many households will soon be passing
through the agonies of the annual
cleanings. Have you ever stopped to
ask yourselves this question: what
furnishings in my house, or what
methods of work, could ! change to
make my work easier, or to make my
house more truly place of rest and
joy?
Let's begin with the kitchen-wth
the floor of the kitchen. The woman
who is trying to eliminate unneces-
sary Homework should give special at
tention to the kitchen flooring. In or
der to be easily cleaned and sanitary,
it must be free from cracks and nom
absorbant of grease and water, 1t
must also be comfortable to the feet.
For cleanliness and ease to the
feet, nothing quite equals good
grade linoleum, if properly laid. 1t
also has beauty and. in the long run.
is quite economical, especially if the
inlaid linoleum is used. Thing is
good but quite expensive. Cement is
quite undesirable, and carpets and
mattings altogether out of the ques-
ton. Soft wood floors will soon crack
or splinter and require endless back
breaking scrubbing to keep them pre-
sentable.
There are two distinct kinds Of lin.
oleum--printed and inlaid. In the lat.
ter, the colors or designs extend clear
through to the 'burlap back. In the
printed linoleum, the colors or designs
are printed on the top and will be
rubbed off with only comparatively
short period of wear. Battleship lin
oleum is an inlaid linoleum of plain,
solid colors-greys, greens, or browns.
| Linoleum is of special rubber COM
position. Grease, strong soaps and
washing powders affect or rot the ma.
terial. Good linoleum need scarcely
be scrubbed at all. Waxing, or treat.
ing with shellac, protects it, renders
it water proof, and brightens the col
ors. After such treatment, wiping
with damp cloth is all that is neces-
sary.
Next week we will give directions
for proper laying Of, and caring for
| linoleums,

The Building Trust

Testimony presented before the joint legislative commit
tee investigating the building trust operations in New
York shows conclusvely what the matter with building
operations not only in New York but in all the large cities
and greater less extent throughout the country and
expains the building paralysis that is causing shortage OF
buildings of all kinds
In New York there such thing as competitive
bid All bids colusive All producers and obbers of
all kinds of building materials organized and prices
inflated to suit Contractors also organized
and all bids submitted to joint agency where they were
revised upwards so per cent and contracts and profits
rated among members. Labor also organized and
operated through business agents with the material and
contractors trust
All three factors worked through central agency which
shut off materials refused contracts denied labor and called
strikes and otherwise penazed contractors and builders
refusing stand in Crooked Dealers crooked contractors
crooked labor agents. under leadership of crooked lawyers
worked in unison black mailed and coerced honest Dealers
honest contractors honest labor unions reored strong
methods dynamite and murder to maintain monopoly,
keep up prices and wages.
Under the regime of the building trust construction of all
kinds reached such high costs become prohbtve and
widespread suffering through lack of housing facilities and
consequent rent proteerng has resulted well in
creased unemployment and want Conditions finally became
ntoerabe that they resulted in exposure indictment and
prosecution of those crminaly involved and though the
hampered through destruction of records
the building trust that held New York in it's grasp has for
the time being been smashed.
With the decline in prices building is again made
possible and the coming year should be the greatest
struction year in the history of the country

Salem Folk Asked
to Cease Cutting
Trees Near Creek

Hope that Salem folk will in the
future go further than the banks OF
the creek at 14th and Center
streets for their holiday decorations
was expressed this morning by
Mrs H. j. Clements, 1477 Che
meketa street, who stated that
many persons have been cutting
expensive evergreens in that vicin-
ity.
These evergreens. together with
oregon grape, and other plants of
a like nature, were planted by a
landscape gardner at considerable
expense. An appeal to the civic
pride of those persons who have
been helping themselves to the
shrubbery is made in the hope of
arresting similar activities in the
future. The greenstuff is highly
decorative, it is pointed out, and
should be unmolested.
Mrs Clements said that police
would be called on if the practice
is continued.

Uncle Sammy Coon was terribl,

Paddy Musknat and his wife had
each eaten six knives and six
forks. He didn't know that Pad
dy had hidden them all in his
pocket.
This is terriblei" Uncle Sam
my groaned. "Since I've been run
ming an eating house, no one has
done such a thing. 1 haven't a
knife nor "a fork left in the house.
And don't know what to do"
"Well--I'll tell you what to do"
said Paddy Muskrat. 'rYou can
bring us some more clams.'
So Uncle Sammy bore their
plates away again. And phttty
soon he came back with them.
This time he had put twelve spoons
on each plate, SO of course. there
was very little room left for clans
''Theren' he said. Don't eat the
spoons, whatever you dol"
Certainly mott" said Paddy
Muskrat. And as soon as Uncle
sammys back was turned he put
the whole twenty four spoons into
his pocket.
The moment Uncle Sammy look
ed around he wv rhat The spoons
were gone. He almost tainted, he
was so upset. And he sank into one
of his chairs and famed himself
with his cap.
This is terrible!" he said.
Here I've lost all my knives and
forks and spoons! I'm afraid Tn

A little later he sprang up. And
;eizing Paddy Muskrat's coat col
ar, he shook him hard, for he
vas angry. AS he shook Paddy,

made "a great rafting in Paddy's
pocket, But Uncle Sammy Coon
hought the rafting was in Pad
ly's stomach. And he was so
frightened by the sound that he

But just before he jumped, Pad
dy pulled the knives and forks
and spoons out of his pocket and
dropped them on the bank. They
were so heavy that he was afraid
they would drag him to the bot
tom of the creek.
Uncle Sammy Coon stood on the
bank of the creek and roared as
he watched Paddy and his wife
swimming away. Then he hap
pened to look down. And there
were his knives and forks and
spoons right at his feet! He
gathered them up joyfully.

cried.
Bring us two more platefuls

Muskrat said.

muttering to himself. And that
time he came back with the plates
full of fine freshwater CLAIMS.
This is not my way of running
an eating-house," Uncle Sammy
drumbled. But there's nothing
else L can do"
At last Paddy Muskrat and his
wife had all they wanted to eat.
And when Uncle Sammy started to
take away the empty clam-shells,
they stood up and made ready to
go home.
''Wait a moment" said Uncle
Sammy Coon. "You haven't paid
me yet. You owe me for four
dozen CLAIMS. one dozen knives,
one dozen forks, and two dozen
spoons. That makes eight dozen
in all"
"All right" Paddy answered.

"Why-the clam shells 1

Uncle Sammy explained, with a
worried look. "The creek is right
back of my kitchen. And l make
it rule to throw all my clam
shells out of the window into the
water"
Paddy Muskrat pretended to be
very surprised.
Il don't care what you do with
your clam shells" he said. But |
you have no business to throw |
mine away like that. I shall not
