A Twentieth
Century Santa

Ten years ago no industry existed
that was capable of placing American
grown vrieties of European grapes
upon the market for the christmas
trade, say marketing experts of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. Then the department devised a
method of packing the grapes in red
wood sawdust in veneered drums, and
of handling the product under refriger-
alton in transit and in storage from
the time of harvesting until the period
of the holiday markets. Today the
industry ships more than 500 carloads
of grapes annually.
A few years ago the supply of red
wood was threatened. Once more the

ness; TO the consumers, the continu-
ance of luscious fruit.

of the contents of the aforesaid bot

the bottle will get away from his
majesty and then there is a howl
which not only startles the household
with the fear that something terrible

of the youngster becoming SO thor

BEST RESULTS IN COOPERATIVE
MARKETING ARE HAD THROUGH
SOUND BUSINESS METHODS

To secure the greatest results, CO.
operative marketing enterprises must
be organized and operated along sound
business lines, say experts of the Blu
reau of Markets, United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, who cite two in
stances to prove their point.
Sees Error of His Ways
A sweet potato cooperative market
ing association was formed in a New
Mexico county that boosted seven
sweet-potato warehouses. Six of these
warehouses were ignored in organizing
the association. The owner of the
seventh warehouse was permitted to
hold 81 per cent of the stock. With
such a monopoly, this gentleman was
able to control the business of the
association, with the result that all
the sweet potatoes werestored in his
warehouse and the other warehouse
men faced the threat of being driven
out of business. However, the seventh
warehouse owner was finally made to
see the error of his ways, and through
the assistance of the field marketing
agent of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture the Association
has been reorganized upon truly
cooperative basis.
In the adjoining county were two
men who had made considerable for
tune in sweet potatoes, largely through
their ability to store their potatoes in
their own warehouses. The other
sweet-potato growers were able bare
ly to exc out a small profit, because
they were compelled to sell their pro-
duce Immediately. The two ware
housemen finally were prevailed upon
to interest themselves in the formation
of a cooperative association. The
association was thereby enabled to
negotiate a loan from the bank for
the construction of a warehouse to
take care of the pooled produce.
This was such an encouragement to
the farmers that it was SOON necessary
to construct another building because
of a considerable increase in crops.
The two leading sweet-potato men
n this association do not hold ma
jority of the stock. The organization
is cooperative one in the full mean
ing of the word. Each member is on
an equal footing with every other
member. At a recent meeting of the
association it was announced that
through the combined efforts of the

HOME HINTS

The tops of blankets and comforters
always soil first. No matter how care
fully one may make the bed, turning
the top sheet many inches over the
rest of the bed clothes, the edges of
the covers do seem to get dirty very
quickly. An easy and economical way
to overcome this is to sew g. deep fac
ing of cheese cloth across the ends
of the blanket. The facing should be
at least six inches deep on both sides
of the cover It's much easier to rip
this protector off and wash it once

is to wash whole blanket or COM

There is one place in most house
holds where definite leak" is ig-
|nored This is in the matter of lights.
The strength of the light depends en-
tirely on the number of watts and so
watts consumes more electricity than
40. In a closet, in hall, any place,
in fact, where strong, brilliant light
is not needed, considerable amount
of Juice" can be saved by an intelli-
gent choosing of electric light bulbs.
In reading lamp, dressing lights and
places that need much light, use high
powered bulbs and be sure that they
are given all that there is in them to
give. Lights burn out and use the
same amount of electricity without
making the proper light.

A Cat Adopts Coyotes

In addition to an already large fam
lily of kittens, cat which belongs to
the M. Brent family of South Fork has
adopted two coyote puppies.
Several weeks ago when w. w.
Buckbee and R. H. Carter, who lived
near the Brent farm, found the den
Of a coyote on the latter's place they
captured several very small coyote
puppies, says a western newspaper.
When shown at the Brent farmhouse
some of the children wanted the little
coyotes and paid their captors for
two of them.
The little coyotes were placed among
the kittens belonging to the old fam
lily cat and after a careful scrutiny
and a few shifts the old cat began
mothering them the same as her own
kittens
Now the cats family of kittens and
the two adopted coyote puppies are
nearly two months old and all live
together happily and appear to be
making the most of life. The coyotes
are getting much bigger than the kit
tens and are playful and mischievous.
In the rough and tumble tussels they
are continually staging the coyotes
are the stronger, but the kittens are
more active, so it is am even match
as yet. While the coyotes can easily
wallop the kittens in a straight out
fight, yet the latter, when on the de-
fensive, will curl up on their backs
and keep the coyote puppies at bay
by the rapid kicks of hind legs and
the scratching of their sharp claws.

Fruit Value as
Human Food

Recent Investigators Conclude That
1t Is Due to the Vitamines
why do we eat fruits asks the
Journal of the American Medical AS
ISOLATION in an article on their we'll
established great value in the diet.
Their calory value is low, they con-
tain no fats and scarcely any protein,
although some contain a certain
amount of sugar and starch. They are
not valuable contributors to the mine
raj salts needed by the body, and their
laxative organic acids are offset by
their indigestible wakes, gums and
cellulose.
Value in sVitamines
But Drs. T. B. Osborne and L. B.
Mendell, in their recent investigations,
an account of which appears in the
Journal of Biological Chemistry, have
-onstrated that their value lies in
their content of vitamines, that group
of as yet ill-defned properties or sub
stances which promote well being in
ways that still require elucidation.
Orange, Lemon, Grapefruit
"The fresh juices of the edible parts
of the orange, lemon and grapefruit
contain the vitamine frequently
spoken of as water-soluble B or anti
neuritic vitamine," says the Journal
of the American Medical Association.
at is, indeed surprising to learn that
the potency of orange juice, for .ex-
ample, in the water-soluble vitamine
is comparable, volume for volume,
with that of cows milk. This must
not be understood, of course, to apply
to the nutrients as sources of energy,
but only to the contents as vitamine.
1t is even limited that orange juice
may contain some fat soluble vita
mine; if so, it will have been demon
strated to yield all the at present
known types of vitamines. Bittle
wonder that this citrus fruit has ac-
quired dietary popularity. The adj
vocates of a national temperance drink
may be disappointed in the relatively
poorer showing of grape juice as a
source of vitamine.

Boys Win Over
Their Elders

It is estimated that only 8 per cent
of the cattle in the United States are
registered and experts say that an in
crease of 2 per cent accomplished in
from 5 to 10 years is mark well worth
aiming at.
Out in Ustick, near Boise City, the
boys have shattered this record, ac-
cording to a report brought in by
United States Department of Agricul-
ture field worker who recently Wis
tied the community. These boys, act
ing upon their own initiative, anc
aided by agents of the department
and the State College Of Agriculture,
bought 10 head of pure-bred stock
thus increasing the total for their

Telegraphic Codes

That the recent and universal de-
velopment of the wireless telegraph
will bring about a change from the
use Of the old Morse code by tele-
graph companies generally now seems
assured, SO the experts say.
The Morse system has been in use
in this country and Canada ever since
the inception of the telegraph Grad
ually, however, as time went on, its
imperfections were noted.
1t was found that a Encouragement
of the dots and dashes made for great
er simplicity and speed. In other
countries these changes were adopted
and they made possible the elimina-
ton of the spaces.
AS has often been the case, Amer
lea, having led the world in progress
and invention in its preliminary
stages, has failed to follow up the
advantage thus gained, and, as re-
suit, is far behind the race
1AI lliC PltScAl IlllC Tie
or Universal system has been adopted
by every country in the world with
the exception of the Tilted States and
Canada. The rules and regulations of
he International Telegraph Union are
BASED on the continental code, and are
binding on the United States, though
Americans have no vote in their pre-
)aration.
Just why the adoption of improve
ments on the old Morse code has not
been made is somewhat of a mystery.
1t is probably largely matter of SEN
timent and also of habit.
Once a system has been in general
use, it is a great deal easier to put
up with its imperfections rather than
temporarily handicap efficiency by
the retraining of old operators, in
spite of the fact that in the long run
a much greater degree of efficiency
would result
When the new branch of telegraphy
was born, though, unhandicapped by
convention and precedent, the advan-
tages of themore modern Continental
system were readily appreciated and
adopted.
The rapid growth of the wireless
in the past few years has, of course,
vastly augmented the number of oper-
ators in the country using the latter
code and thus prejudice is gradually
breaking down.
So marked has become the change
of sentiment in the last year or SO
that many ofthe old-line telegraphers'
organizations are openly advocating
the substitution of the Continental
code for the Morse as a commercial
necessity.

Joy new toys just as much through
the year as they do at Christmas, per
haps even more, for with so many
new things at Christmas the child is
apt to be overwhelmed. The cam
paign which has recently been started
towards keeping the toy market busy
for the birthdays and minor holidays
during the year. and for the occasional
toy treat which can be reward for
especially good behavior, has brought
out some interesting new things for
children to play with
There are some new cuddly dolls
for the very little folks, all with nice,
soft bodies that will not break when
someone accidentally rolls over on
them in bed at night These vary
from the pretty little baby doll that
you couldn' help but cuddle, to the
series of funny little animals, includ-
ing a scraggly pup with a necktie bow
and a wise old cat of Teddy bear
plush. Then there is a cannibal lady
of black stuffed material, with gay
wool skirt and bead bracelets anklets
and chain She has a bewitching top
knot, too. A whole family of Indians,
with real blankets and moccasins,
come in this same class. And, best
Of all, is a series of cuddly dolls with
radium eyes which shine in the dark.
New Painted Furniture

will love some new painted furniture,
which comes rather high, but could be
given to her one room at a time I'M
til her whole house is furnished. This
/ furniture is well made and prettily
decorated. 1t should instill in the
young housekeeper rudiary idea Of
interior decoration.
There is a new sandbox set that is
quite interesting for the sand is kspt
inside the small table. from which the
lid can be lifted. A sand set of molds
and water toys goes with this, as well
as chair to match the table.
Boys will love a new truck that
runs by steam generated from a small
kerosene lamp. They will also have
hours of fun with the boxing boys,
two wooden jointed dolls joined by
wires. which are worked BY lever,
so that one knocks the others head
off The outcome of this bout is by no
means certain, however.
Educational Toys
/ There are some fine new educational
toys which will supplement the first
lessons at school. Who wouldn't love
to learn her multiplication table by
Iphonograph? Then there is another
record for use on the toy machines or
the larger ones with familiar bird
calls, the name of each bird being
mentioned after its notes. The Ian
guage of the various animals are re-
produced, too, for very little folks, and
for the latest of all there are charming
lullabies and nursery songs.

come easier for the many games which
can be had to play at home in the
evenings.
