ADVERTISE

Some business men think they are
advertising when they use a little
space now and then. There is but one
way to do -he job right, and that is
to use enough space often enough to
make a real impression.
Advertising is like the fire under
the boilers of a locomotive. 1t takes
"a little tire to get up steam, and
during that time it will not drive the
engine But once steam is up, how
that locomotive will travel! All that
is needed is to keep the fire going.
The way to advertise is to make a
definite appropriation at the begin
ming of the year, say five per cent
of expected gross sales. Then make
plan that requires the amount set
aside, and stcik to the plan. Don't
advertise on lunches.

NEW BREED OF POULTRY
DEVELOPED BY UNCLE SAM

Lamona is the name given to new
breed of poultry that has been devel-
oped at the Experimental Farm of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture at Beltsville, Md. 1t has been
named by Secretary Wallace after the
originator, Harry M. Lamon, senior
roultryman Of the Bureau of Animal
Industry. 1t is a white fowl with red
ear lobes that lays white-shelled egg.
White Plymouth Rock, Silver Gray
Dorking, and White Leghorn were the
breeds used as foundation stock.
The fowls are larger than Leghorns,
with long, deep bodies, well feathered
and comb and wattles of medium size.
The new breed is not ready for intro
duction and neither eggs or fowls can
be secured. When a sufficient stock
of birds has been raised specimens
will be sent to state agricultural col
leges and experiment stations to test
their adaptability to different sections
and conditions.

DAIRYcRAMs
By Helen S. X. Wilcox

The old cow! What a blessing to
the world She is the cornerstone of
the worlds meal ticket. Her sons
and daughters have rendered a SER
vice to man which no other animal has
equalled. Her sons and daughters
have worn the yoke and drawn the
wagons and loads over mountains,
through trackless forests and across
prairies into new lands and beyond
the outposts of civilization. Her sons
and daughters have pulled the plow
and turned the sod and prepared the
seed-bed for countless haryests for
mans profits and pleasures. Her
hide has turned to leather, and its
uses ramify into every nook and cor
ner of human endeavor. The human
race is shod with boots and shoes.
The wheels that run the million mills
are incircled with cow-hide. Her hide
and hoof and horn punctuate the
story of commerce and industry. Her
bones go to renew worn-out soil and
enrich the soil that man has robbed
in his quest for harvest and gain.-To-
ledo Blade.

Age

A hen should not be culled on ac-
count of her age. If she survives cul-
ling one year after another she may
be used as breeder the next. The
more culling she survives the better
hen she is proven to be, for she has
demonstrated her strong constitution
and ability to stand up under heavy
and continued production. A hen that
is a good producer one year is ordin-
arily good producer the next and a
flock of persistent producers make
the best sort of breeders.

SIGNING ROAD

Announcement was made yesterday
by the Automobile Club of Arizona
that it is placing temporary guide
signs along the road from Holbrook
to Kams Canyon in preparation for
the annual Snake Dance at Walpi on
August rs. These signs, it is believed,
will be of great assistance to visitors
going into the Indian country for the
dance, as they will keep travellers
from getting lost on the many roads
which in that country lead only to
isolated Indian villages or trading

Boudoir Bandeaux.

As a substitute for the negligee
appearance given by the average
boudoir cap try the becomingness
of bandeau or ribbon of color and
width best suited to the wearer, with
few pin curls" tucked in over
the forehead and puffs attached
where the band crosses the ears. Un-
der this ribbon bandeau. the natural
front hair may be done up on pins
or laid fiat to form a water wave.
and the secret be known to the
wearer only, while the back hair
may be coiled on top of the head
and show above the bandeau. Such
boudoir hairdressing gives an air of
dignity and elegance to the negli-
gee, with which it is worn. and has
the further advantage of being easi-
ly made at home. The band of rib
bon snaps either at the nape of the
neck or closes at one side, with a
handsome artificial flower or a
fiat ribbon ornament. The band
may be decorated with embroidery
or beads and may be made elab-
crate enough to grace an expensive
trousseau. For the woman who
finds the "Aoppy" lace and berib-
boned boudoir cap unsuited to her
style the bandeau head dress is we'll
worth trying.

To Use Meats
Left Over
BY LORETTO c. LYNCH.

Time was when the family looked
with horror upon the saving of yes
terday,s roast. Then we all began to
hear of theart of camouflage. Presto
the housewife learned to camouilage
yesterdays roast so that the family
really believed they were getting a
brand new dish.
Take rare roast beef. II it has been
served on Sunday, set the remnants
aside to serve on Tuesday. Don't
make the mistake of giving it to the
family cold on Monday. If you have
served it with potatoes on Sunday,
reheat it cautiously in the top of a
double boiler or in a pan set over
hot water. This conserves the flavor
and prevents the meat from becoming
hard. Now make up a nicely sea-
soned spaghetti and tomato sauce.
Leftover roast beef may be made
into a savory stew with onions and
potatoes. To camoufage the stew,
place it in baking dish and cover
with tender piecrust. Rub the
top over with yolk of egg diluted
with milk. This will give a beauti-
full brown. shiny crust when baked.
Bake in individual dishes if you
have them.
Lamb and veal left from yester-
days roast have delightful possibli-
ties. Instead of bringing to the table
semi-grisly-looking plateful of cold
sliced lamb. slice the lamb one-fourth
inch in thickness. Sprinkle gener-
ously with drops of Worcestershire
sauce. Cover and let stand little
while. Heat little fat on the fry
pan and saute the lamb until heated
through and delicate brown. Serve
with most any vegetable OF carrots
and peas.
Leftover veal should be sliced and
freed from any unedible portion.
The slices should be one-fourth inch
or more. Dip each slice into flour,
then into beaten egg and lastly into
sifted dry bread crumbs or cracker
crumbs. Fry in hot deep fat until
delicate brown. Serve with but
tered boiled noodles. A brown gravy
or tomato sauce or white sauce may
accompany these impromptu veal
outlets.
Similar outlets may be made from
roast pork Indeed, so good are
these that I once heard a visitor
remark to thrifty housewife that
these are quite the best pork tender
loins" he had eaten this year.
A suitable accompaniment to these
mock pork tenderloins is creamed
potatoes generously sprinkled with
finely chopped parsley and accom-
panied in the way of dessert by large
green baked apples.
The bone from a roast usually
has some flavor left in it. And it
should always be put into the soup
kettle. A bone from a baked Vir-
ginia ham is decided improvement
to pea or bean or lentil soup.
A roast smoked ham has always
seemed a good investment, even for
a small family, because of the pos
sbilities of its left-overs. Do you
know that many of the restaurants
specializing in breakfast dishes ret l
heat in hot fat a slice of roast
smoked ham and serve it with eggs?
And for the very last of any roast,
there is always the hash bowl. Al
low two parts of chopped cooked
potatoes and little grated onion to
one part of the chopped meat. Moist.
en- with milk or water. and if needed
add little melted fat. Turn the
hash into CREASED baking dish and
bake until brown. You will like
this better than pan hash.
