been made out for me.
A citizen of Red Russia may not
travel on one of his railroads without
the permission of the extraordinary
commission, and then not until his
pass has been signed and countersign-
ed by a score of commissioners.
We had no sooner taken our places
when two soldiers with rifles and
bavonets came to examine our passes.
Our seats were bare boards. All
cushions were taken out of the coache
long ago as an anti-spotted typhus
measure. 1t was too long and costly
an operation to delouse a train after
every trip.
Many of the windows were broken /;
others were boarded up. There is no
window glass in Russia.
However, there was something to
be- thankful for; / soon found out
that by travelling with the commits
sars | would not starve. We started
at IL and at noon the commlssars
opened their baskets.
And what a feed! We had hard
boiled eggs, pork, milk, butter and
cheese. We even had paper napkins.
We cut the black bread with our
nocketknives. Then my hosts hauled
out big box of cigarets. The poor
half-starved devils in the next COM
partment looked anxiously at our
wonderful assortment of luxurles.
However, we were in no danger of
being robbed; each commissar kept
his revolver handy.
q
this junction l parted with Matson,
whom | had come to respect IN way,
for l could not help feeling that he
was honest in his convictions.
The courier and | went out with
our kettles for hot water with which
to make tea. There is buffet at al
most every stop in Russia. The pas
sengers form an orderly queue and
in turn ladle out hot water from the
big boilers, usually tended by wo-
man.
In former days the buffet was a
great institution at Russian railroad
stations. Here the famous "Zakoos
ka"-solodka, sandwiches, caviar,
cucumber, sausage, cheese and cakes
and other delicacies-was piled high,
with bottles of vodka standing con-
veniently by. Now the buffet coun-
ter is, as a rule, used as bed by
the soldiers guarding their" prop
erty, or as a storehouse for Bolshevik
propaganda.
The platform at Ono was crowded
with the usual mob Of half-starved
and half-clothed peasants and sold
iers each carving a bundle or a sack
on his back. 1 saw one or two COM
paratively well-dresesd women at
Dino, obviously members of the bour-
geoise. But as far as l could see the
rest of the people bore them no ha-
tired. Hatred is foreign to the Rus
sian character.

ruthlessly cut down for fuel. How

ANSWERS UNFAIR
COTTON REPORTS
Greatly Overestitmate
Prospects, Council
Wires Government

That the cotton market is now
suffering from false impressions con-
corning the outlook for the fall crop
as held in Wall Street and other
speculative circles is the belief of
cotton men in this section who de-
clare the deterioration to the crop
in the last three weeks throughout
the Southeastern states has been very
great, and that the earlier optimis-
tic outlook will fail to materialize
by a wide margin. Because they
are sure the entire crop will be far
short of the expectations up east, and
that the consumers will son find they
they are going to have to pay for
cotton what it is worth, leading bank
ers and warehousemen are urgently
demanding of the farmers, whatever
their condition, to hold their crop off
the market at this time if they can
possibly do so.
L. G. Council, leading cotton fac
tor of this section, yesterday sent
the following telegram to the U. S.
Department of Agriculture bearing
on this subject:

Plenty Of amusement is in store for
all. The Legion boys have seen TO that,

in that there will be no parades and
patriotic speaking, the spirit Of pa

Success in Matrimony Is
Solved in Kaclien Says Che

Girls. can you cook? If you can't
you had better start in learning right
away If you would be successful in a
matrimonial venture, would have a
healthy family and a happy husband.
For such is the advice given out by
Chef Becker, a cook of sixty years ex-
perience and thirty years and more
with the Majestic Range people as DEM
onstrator.
Mr.. Becker recently gave an inter-
esting demonstration in cooking on the
Majestic range at Gillian & Bisbee's
hardware store and some of the meth
DDS which he employed were revela-
tion TO the ordinary housewife.
The chef, VINO is now past eighty
years of age, says that the family
health and happiness is in the kitchen.
In Mr. Becker's family were ten chill
dren and during the years from infancy
on up, he declares seven dollars is the
sum total of money expended by him
for doctor bills, The chillren were all
in good health as were both Mr.. and
Mrs, Becker, and he attributed it all to
the methods employed and the manner
in which the food was prepared.
The demonstration in this city was
well attended and Heppner women say
they obtained some very valuable
pointers, both as to cooking food and
the preparation and maintainence of
proper heat for various purposes,
