EVERYWHERE, L. s.. Aug.
Hardware dealers are in

They are all carrying new
stocks Of rolling pins and the
pins serve every culinary pur-

But sales OF rolling pins have
diminished.
And the dealers are wonder

the trouble, the dealers say.
They are light
They are not too light for roll
ing out pie crust or biscuit
dough after a fashion that will

For years the rolling pin has
been the traditional wife wea-

But now no husband breads

Still the husbands are not sat

PHEZ COMPANY PLANS
PROMOTION BERRY
CULTURE IN THCRSTON
Needs More Canning Fruit, Intends
Mage Soft Drinks at Old Olympia
Brewing Plant.

AS a part of the program for the
promotion of berry raising in ThurS-
ton county. 800 pamphlets have been
received by the Chamber of Commerce
from the department of agriculture AZ
Washington, d. c., telling the history
of the logan and other berries and
how to cultivate them. These pamph-
lets will be given free circulation
through mail and at the meeting If
the Chamber of Commerce Tuesday
evening. November 8.
In addition to these pamphlets,
Frederick Schmidt. we'll known Olym-
plan and manager of the Phez COM
pany. who is nthis city for the mee;-
ing, has announced that the company
will send several thousand special
pamphlets here for distribut on
through agency. With Mr.. Schmidt
in Olympia. is T. f. McCrosky, secre-
tary Of the Salem. Oregon. Chamber
OF Commerce. who will tell the men,
bers of the local chamber of com
merce what the production of berries
has done for Salem.
The Phez company, of which the
Olympia Brewing company IS a part
is unable to secure sufficient berrie,
in the Willamette valley alone. and
if arge acreage can be worked Up
here, in order that there may be
plenty Of berries for both the Olympia
Canning company and an additional
plant, 1t is the intention Of the Phez
compay to use the old brewing plant
here for the purpose of making soft
drinks from the juices Of berries.
This does not mean that the berries
for such plant would have to be n
Thurston county alone for the pos
sibilities of bringing berries in from
the islands surrounding Olympia and
other counties along the sound are
very good.
