WEDNESDAY.

The discussion as to whether Helen was
to have dancing lessons with Mrs. Chapin's
rather exclusive class this winter or not
came up again when Mr.. and Mrs.
Hooper sat down together in the living
room after dinner
T. "Well, have you worked out a. plan by
which you can use the dollar a week
that I'm determined to save on my
lunches for Helens dancing Iessons?"
asked Henry as~he pulled up Mrs. Hoop
ers chair to the table under the light Of
the shaded lamp.
what do you do in business, Henry
when you want to make a transfer that
will take money from one department of
expenditure and put it into another?"
asked Mrs. Hooper. "Supposing an emer-
gency arises or there is a deficit to be
made up"
well, ii really isn't business like to do
It," admitted Henry, land there is al
ways a lot of red tape involved. and it
mixes things up pretty generally"
THAT Is exactly what will happen with
my budget If l try to make any such
adjustment as you suggest" replied Mrs.
Hooper positively. IN upset my whole
working scheme If / take four dollars a
month out of my food budget and add it
to my advancement account for the pur-
pose of expanding Ii on dancing lessons
for Helen"
"Oh, l see your conclusions from the
point Of view of business" said Henry
lrritabIy, "and that's my objection to
this cast iron budget of yours. 1t takes
no account whatever Of sentiment. Some

Helpful Household Hints

Fish is an article of food which re-
Quires great care, and clear good judg-
ment on the part of the housewife 1t
must be perfectly fresh, properly cleaned
and well cooked If UNDERGONE, it should
never be served; while, on the other hand,
overlooking spOils the flavor and makes
it dry. The sooner it is cooked after
being taken from the water, the better
for fish and the ones to whom it is
served.
When the fish is fresh, the eyes are
bright, the gills red and the flesh firm
and without odor You can have your
fish dealer remove the scales and draw
the fish before delivering. As soon as
you get it, thoroughly wash by letting
the water rln on the fish; never lay it
in water to soak, as you lose the juices
in this way. Wipe with a clean piece of
cheesecloth wrung out of cold, sailed
water until thoroughly dry and free
from any Shiny feeling which the fish
is apt to have Then wrap the fish in
a cloth kept for that purpose, and over
the cloth a thick large piece of paper,
and lay in the top Of the ice box, so it
will not in any way interfere with milk
and butter you may have in your ice
box. 1t should lie directly on the ice
until ready to cook. Frozen fish should
he laid In cold water until they thaw and
become flexible, but not a bit longer.
The head and tail should be left on, and
the fins trimmed and shaped if the fish
is to lie served whole.
To Skin and Bone Fish
With a sharp pointed knife loosen the
skin all around the head and down the
backbone. Dip the hands in salted water,
and you will be able to strip the skin
off nicely. After the skin has been re-
moved with sharp-pointed knife, loosen
the flesh down the back, pressing the
knife against the bone until it is free.
The fllet may then be cut into two or
more pieces, according to the size Of the
fish
Ffllets from sole, founder and other
small. fat fish, are sometimes rolled and
skewered until cooked. Wooden tooth
picks answer for this purpose admirably.
Too much care can not be taken to have
the fish fresh and well cared for, as it
very quickly gathers ptomaine.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
BY David Cory

Travelling in a strange country like
New Mother Goose Land was not an
easy thing, and PUss Junior had need or
brave heart to keep him going. Every
thing was so different from Mother Goose
Land. although he always expected TO
find the old familiar friends and nursery
melodies.
Well. after he said goodby to the
fisherman at the crossroads, as l told
you in the last story, Puss kept bravely
on. and by and by he came ia little
wooden house under a clump of trees.
And then, do you know, that same little
bird who is always singing these New
Mother Goose melodies began to twitter
and the words of his song were these:
Little Tommy Title Mouse
Lives in a funny house,
In the corner of the floor
He has a round hole for a door.
So Puss pushed open the door Of the
little wooden house and peeked in. At
the other end of the room, fer the front
door didn't open into hall. you know,
Puss could dimly see a little mouse sit
ting up on. his hind legs.
"Helloa, Mr.. Tittlemouse," said Puss
Junior, for he didn't mean to try to
catch the mouse and so he didn't care
whether Mr. Tittlemouse was so fright
ened that he jumped into his hole in the
corner of the room and told Mrs. TITLE
mouse he had seen a giant robber cat,
with boots and spurs and sword and
plume and, well, everything else that
bold robber might wear.
And this made the lady mouse very
curious, so she peeked out Of the hole.
at won't hurt you" laughed Puss, who
had sat down on a chair to rest his tired
legs. I'm n traveller and am seeking
nv famous father, Puss in Boots. So
cheer up. my little mice, for Puss Junior
never harms any one except in self
defense"
Maybe we can help direct you to
your fathers house," suggested Mrs.
Tittlemouse in a high, squeaky voice.
81 lived at the Castle of my Lord Of
Carabas before I married Mr.. Title
mouse, and a grand place it was, and
grand cat was your father. the illus
trious Puss in Boots, Seneschal to my
Lord and Lady Carabas!" After this
long speech the little mouse coughed and
smiled at Puss. who bowed politely.
at is difficult road from here" con-
tinued Mrs. Mouse, 'for New Mother
Goose Land, while it has all the up-to-
date methods does not offer to us ami
mails the loving care which we received
from dear Old Mother Goose" As she
finished speaking loud knocking was
heard at the door. but who was knocking

STATE OF TRADE

The state of trade over the country
as reported by Bradsstreet's for last
week vas irregular. Business revival
slow. Weather a drawback. Cleay.
age between favorably and poorly sit.
uated lines seems more marked. Ap.
parel trades show progress in spring
buying. Fall woolens, marked lower,
show varying inquiry. Basic lines
like iron, steel, coal, coke and lumber
no better. Steel, oil and coal prices,
production and wages declining.
Trades hitherto quiet sending better
reports are shoes and automobile and
kindred lines. Furs sell higher OF
auction. Mailorder trade on par with
January, but of from 1920 by large
percentages. Prices, except for food
still tend downward. Stock markets
bonds and foreign exchange easier.

NEW MOVIE TO OPEN

Y. o. Haugen's new motion picture
palace Is now completed and the open
ing is announced for tomorrow. The
new theater has been named the
state appropriate because Brook
ings is the home Of State college, and
metropolitan because the m~lllion-dol-
lar theater recently opened in Mime
apolis is named the state" One
glance at the interior of the new
theater is sufficient to convince every
Mr.. Haugen's institution. Artistic
decorating, beautiful finish, comforta-
bic leather upholstered seats, every
thing of the best and equal to any
playhouse IN the state. The projec-
ton room is fitted out with all Of the
latest type of equipment including mo
tor-driven projection machines. Mu-
sic will be supplied by a large Orches-
trail pipe organ which Mr.. Haugen Sc
cured at large expense. Prof. e. L.
Tenney Of Minneapolis, has been Sc
cured to play this wonderful instru-
ment on the opening day. OF particu-
lar interest to patrons is the large
exhaust fan ventilation system which
changes the air in the building con-
stantly. The investment represented
by this new enterprise is large and
great credit is due to Mr.. Haugen for
the faith he has in the growth and
prosperity of Brookings and he has
helped it on by this investment.
With the opening Of this theater,
Bookings has three up-to-date mo
ton picture theaters, all showing a
high class Of pictures and all a credit
and an asset to the city.

CANADIAN WHISKY MAYBE.

The White Leader relates the fol
lowing:
An unusual incident occurred in
telephone operations Friday night of
last week. Ski Scadden was relieving
the operator in the local office. At
about 1000 o'clock there was a per
sistent ringing for Toronto and as
there was not much doing Ski plugged
in to see il the call was answered.
Finally the operator at Toronto an
swered and the party calling said
This is Winnipeg, give me 2722." The
Toronto operator said, 1--WE have no
such number" That's funny" said
Winnipeg, 81 passed you a ticket not
than twenty minutes ago."
The operator at Brookings got on
to the line to assist with the call and
it was learned that Winnipeg, Canada,
vas calling for the number at To
ronto, Canada. The message had
flew the track" and headed for To
ronto, 8. D.. instead of Toronto, Cana,
da, which proves that even telephone
operators make mistakes.

DISABLED VETS MOVE IN

This has been moving week for the
college for the first wing of the new
dormitory was made ready for occu-
pancy last week. The completed por-
ton will not accommodate them all
but the legislature has appropriated
sufficient funds to complete the other
wing so that next fall all Of the dis
abled veterans taking vocational train
ing will have a place to live.
The first floor is being divided INTO
suites of two rooms each, equipped for
light housekeeping for the use of the
married men and their wives. There
are eight of these suites. Offices and
a suite of rooms have been prepared
for Chaplain G. p. Squires, who is the
advisor Of the vocational men. On the
second floor are rooms for sixty-eight
men, placing two in each room, and on
the third floor there is room for sixty
four men. There is an infrmary for
first aid emergency cases on the third
floor. The basement has been pre-
pared for the installation Of billiard
tables and bowling alleys. The bowl
ing has been constructed with a
sound proof double ceiling and con-
crete beds for the alleys.
The second wing will combine all Of
the features of the first but with adj
ditional comforts and convenienccs.
Between the two wings a large draw
ing Don will be constructed and APP
pointed in the manner of a hotel lobby.
The dormitory is a great boon to these
men who for the last few months have
been living where they could with
scarcely any nor comfort than they
had In the army. 1t now provides them
with good living quarters at reason
able rates and also with means of re-
creation and a place to hold social
gatherings.
A college wit who wheezes weekly
in the Collegian remarks: Speaking
Of that old and famous proverb that
runs something like this: People who
live In glass houses should undress in
the dark" reminds US that the voca-
tional men, since moving into the new
dorm, have had to keep in mind that
maxim, owing to lack of window deco
rations."

MILLION AND HALF SAVED

A million and a half dollars were
added to the profits Of South Dakota
farmers during the year 1920 through

ty agents and South Dakota farmers
cooperating with these forces.
A statement issued by w. F. Kum-
lien, acting director Of the extension
division, gives an itemized account Of
this increase of farm products as fol-
lows: Improvement of field crops and
soils, $116.445; animal disease proven
ton. $535.269: cooperative marketing
associations. $268.6s4; poultry culling,
$44.366; farm management. 31.130;

THE MARKETING PLAN

The committee of seventeen of the
session at Kansas City recommends
a plan of marketing which provides for
the Incorporation of a national sales
agency in the form of a non-stock,
non-proit, grain growers cooperative
membership organization. This will
provide for the marketing of grain by
virtue of contracts with farmers CO
operative elevators or with local grain
growers cooperative associations.
The growers of grain will take mem
bership in the National Sales Agency.
They will then effect an agreement
with their local cooperative elevator
or with their local grain growers as
ISOLATION to deliver their grain on the
basis Of either a sales contract or a
pooling contract. The local elevator
or grain growers association will CON
tract with the National Sales Agency
to handle the grain.
1t is proposed that the National
Sales Agency will control, through
ownership Of the voting stock, termi
nal agencies, warehouse corporation
finance corporation, export corpora
ton and service departments.
The membership subscriptions Of
the growers will provide the National
Sales Agency with the initial Working
capital necessary for the acquisition
of facilities for the immediate handliug
Of grain on consignment. Later the
running expenses of the National Sales
Agency will be secured by ASSESSING
a handling charge on the grain mar
keted through it's Offices.

A large number of the property
holders On Fifth street held a meeting
at DR.. Borst's Office Monday evening
to discuss the feasibility and advisa-
bllity Of paving Fifth street. Those
present appeared to be all in favor
Of the project but decided that they
were not willing to go ahead until
some approximate figures could be OBJ
tanned upon the cost Of paving this
year. A committee was appointed to
investigate and report this matter at
a meeting to be held at the city hall
next Monday evening at 1880. At that
time it is expected there will be a
much larger attendance. 1t is now
up to the property holders on Seventh
and Ninth streets to get busy and CON-
plete what paving Is necessary to con-
meet all Of the streets from Main to
Medary avenue.
