rs there anything more dismal than
being without ice on Monday
morning when the thermometer
hovers around eighty-fve or there
abouts and the butter is so soft that
1t dissolves if you look at it and the
berries that you wanted TO have
fresh for breakfast are all wilted
and soft and the bacon has become
rancid and. well it is no wonder
Monday is sometimes the bluest day
of the week. If you start II off with
an ice-less breakfast how can Mon
day be anything but indigo?
There are good many ways be
sides increasing the supply of ice
which may be done 70 keep food cool
and in fit condition to use.
For one thing. when the weather
is warm, keep the vegetables which
are not on the ice on the floor. The
air near the floor is always cooler
than that higher up. and there is a
draught along the floor even on
warm days.
Green vegetables will keep well If
they are washed and then wrapped
in cloth or paper. Lettuce and other
salad green's should be chilled for
half an hour on the ice before they
are served: but if there is no ice at
all. put them in a pan of running
water and they will become crisp
and cool.
Butter, Milk and Meat-Butter.
too. can be cooled. If il is put in a
pan of running cold water. The
water will wash away some OF the
salt and will harden the butter 10
such an extent that ii can be cut in
blocks or formed into balls.
Milk. OF course. needs ice or a
cold cellar to keep il fresh for any
length Of time in really warm
weather But if neither of these is
at hand. it can be kept fresh for a
short time by standing it. in covered
bottles. in cold water.
II is also possible to use a flower
pot for keeping things cool. This is
used as one OF those Mexican pot
terry coolers is used. 1t is soaked
for three or four minutes in cool
water, and then inverted over what
ever is 10 be kept cool. It should
be kept in place where there is
good current OF air, and the evapora
tion keeps whatever is under it cool.
OF course, a flower pot can be
used only to keep a small amount
OF anything cool. for ii is small.
But a pat of butter can be kept
under a flower pot. and so could
small jar of cream or milk. 1t is
really just the same principle that
we make use of in cooling things
under a flower pot as the one that
is made use of in the big porous pot
terry coolers that are used in the
tropics. And that is that evapora-
tiOn, reduces temperature.
Meat can be kept fresh If It is
wrapped in a cloth wrung out of
vinegar, Rinse il before cooking it
10 remove the vinegar taste.
II you would keep berries over
night, carefully sort them, and put
all the sound ones back in the box.
Wrap the box in paraffin paper.
Cooked meats, too, can be kept for
thirty-six hours wrapped in paraffin
paper.

HLAlN frult attractlYely served
is always an adequate dessert
and 1t Is a good idea TO accus-
to have plain fruit dessert once or
twice a week while fruits are in sea
son. Currants should be washed
and picked over. drained and served
on the stems. However. there are
some persons who would find them
too tart this way. 1t is quite simple
to make sugar syrup then by let
ting a cup of sugar and quarter
cup of water boiled together for a
minute or two. When this Is luke
warm pour it over the currants that
have been washed. stemmed and
drained. In France moulds of
boiled rice are served with currants
in syrup made in this way.
For variety served currants
washed. stemmed and drained with
red raspberries that have been
washed and drained The sweetness
of the raspberries somewhat coun-
teracts the tartness or the currants
Some persons always add few cur
rants to raspberry preserves and
sometimes a few currants added TO
each layer OF a red raspberry short
cake adds to the good flavor.
For puddings or to use as flavor
ing for fruit punch or sherbet make
a eurrant sauce as follows: Crush
stemmed currants until you have a
cup of juice. Boil a cup of sugar
with third-cup of sugar until ii is
a syrup. Now add the currant juice
and the juice of half lemon This
is good either hot or cold as pud-
ding sauce.

fused a similar vacation to former
owners of the lot.

RIVER FREIGHT HAULED
BY WAY OF PULLMAN
Flood Damage to Snake River Road
Causes Routing of Freight From
Lewiston to Riparia

Greatly increased shipments of
freight over the O.-W. r. & N.
through Pullman have resulted from
the severe damage to the railway
along Snake river, which will close
the road there for another month at
least.
Long freight trains are brought
from Lewiston to Moscow on the
Northern Pacific and switched to the
O,W. r. & N, which takes them to
Riparia by way of Pullman, Colfax,
Endicott and Lacrosse. There the
cars are placed on the Snake river
road as the damage to that line is
many miles above Riparia.
Friday evening the train out of
Moscow on the O.-W. r. & N. was
late owing to the heavy train of
freight cars that had to be taken
from the Northern Pacific tracks
and made up" for the train on the
O.-W. R. & N. The routing of freight
this way is an expensive matter for
the railroads but the damage is so
extensive that it can not be repaired
for some time.
Line Closed for 80 Days

EARLY NEXT week
Binding Operations Will Commence
Monday in Many Fie.ds-Some
Combines to Start the Middle
of the Week

Next Monday will see the start of
harvest operations in this vicinity
with every indication shat the WELD
will exceed normal. The hot weatba,
of the past few days has ripened fall
wheat rapidly and few binders tooL
to the fields this week, althouo,
binding operations will not be gener-
al until the first of next week. Com.
bines will start in several fields in
the Snake river district the middle q,
next week.
In the western part of the county
binding and heading is on in fuu
blast, and reports of an excellent
yield are heard. Up to the present
time the farmers have experienced
little difficulty in securing help. and
1t is believed that there will be plenty
of men available for shocking next
week, with the highest wages in the
history of the district prevailing.
Marcus Spalding of Almota claims
the distinction of being the first
farmer in the county to deliver new
wheat to the warehouse. On Tues

of fall bluestem to the warehouse of
the Interior warehouse company at
Almota.

TALKS To CITIZENS
ON SENATE METHODS

Senator Harve H. Phipps, of Spo-
kane, candidate for lieutenant gov
ernor, gave an interesting talk at
the chamber of commerce rooms
Tuesday evening on the process of
carrying bills through the senate.
The speaker gave much inside in
formation on the senate method of
passing or killing bills. He contend
ed that the number of committees
could be cut to one-third without i'm
pairing the usefulness of the state
body. The rules committee he cited
as an all-powerful institution, capa-
Die OF promoting or suppressing pro-
posed laws almost at will. The
class of bills passed can be deter
mined to a large extent by this COM
mittee. AS remedy for the situa-
ton he proposed the naming of men
on the important committee who will
junction in the interests of all the
people, without heed to classes. and
the preparation of the calendar at
least S6 hours in advance, to give the
legislators an opportunity to ac-
quaint themselves with the various
bills, thus doing away with hasty leg
islation. Under the present system
the legislators are often called upon
to vote for or against a certain mea-
sure with little knowledge of its con-
text or intentions.
