PATENT MEDICINE SALES
ARE INCREASING
Lack Of knowledge Of Food Value
Causes Sickness. r

p atent medicine sales are on the
increase, because of our ignorance of
food values and our bad habits, &C.
cording to Miss Maud Wilson,, State
Home Demonstration Agent, Of the
State College Of Washington.
Nutrition is a personal responsible
ity. 1t is the home makers business
to see that the family is supplied
with foods which make 1t possible for
every member to choose balanced
ration. But each individual should
know what his requirments are
based on his occupation, age. con-
dition of health and personal idiosyn-
crasies. Every person should learn
what foods supply each nutrient and
approximately the amounts. The
child of ten can be taught these facts,
and he is old enough to choose the
foods that should constitute each
meal. The teaching Of proper food
habits should begin when the child
is first given solid food.
The average American table dur
ing two-thirds Of the year at least,
supplies all the nutrients needed for
a normal individual. There is cheese,
meat and eggs for muscle building
food. There is an abundance Of food
that supplies the fuel needed to en-
able the human engine to produce
energy to work; each table affords
an abundance OF fat foods like gravy,
cream, butter, sweet foods like sugar.
jelly, or fruit, and starchy foods.
bread. breakfast food or potatoes.
Fruits and vegetables supply the
minerals that are needed to build
tissue and to regulate the body. Milk
supplies the substance needed by
children to insure proper growth and
is also a cheap source of lime which
is essential to the proper nourish-
ment of nerve tissue and bones.
With all this bounty is it not to
our shameful discredit that we have
under-nourished languid children in
our schools, who breakfast habitually
on bread and heavily sweetened
coffee, who do not know the taste Of
milk and who never eat vegetables?
Old people suffer constantly from
indigestion because they refuse to
alter food habits to conform to age
and the cessation Of hard labor.

planning to have a bill presented TO
the coming legislature providing that
eggs shall be sold by weight instead
of number. This action is to be taken
through the state Organization OF
the Farm Bureau, by which means
sentiment in favor of the measure
can be developed throughout the

The poultrymen decided to con-
duct five study tours. The first one
will be arranged by the Hunters
Point community for February 4.
This study tour, however, will not
be held at Hunters Point, as might
be supposed, but at Lacey, where
there is excellent opportunity to
study the different types of poultry.
w. D. Buchanan, extension spec
ialist in poultry with the state col
lege, will conduct these study tours
in cooperation with Mr.. Muzatko, and
they will be open to all farmers who
desire to attend.
1t was decided by the poultrymen
of Northwest, Northeast, Brighton
Park, Hays, and Lacey. to request
Mr.. Buchanan to give some lctures
on brooding chicks during his stay,
of the study tour, February 4. He
will lecture on the different types
OF brood seen on the study tour. Dur
ing the time that Mr.. Buchanan is
here he will give chick brood lectures
at Hunters Point, Yelm, and Grand
Mound. Seasonal poultry lectures
will be arranged at other times in
the year. The study tours will also
be conducted in the Northwest, Little
Rock, Brighton Park, and Grand
Mound districts some time in May at
which time Mr.. Buchanan will give
lectures on poultry house construc-
ton and equipment at Yelm and
Grand Mound.
Poultry leaders meeting Thurs
day decided to make an excursion to
the Western Washington Experiment
Station to study the special features
OF their program, and the leaders
will make canvass to see how many
farmers in the county will join the
movement. Superintendent Linklater

POULTRyMEN OUTLINE
AMBITIOUS PROGRAM
Study Tours, Culling Demonstra'
tiOns and Drives Will Make
Feathers Fly In County.

The poultry project leaders of the
Farm Bureau met in the courthouse
on Thursday aIternoon and made a
program for the coming year, chief
Of which is series of ten culling
demonstrations to be carried out In
Northwest, Northeast, Little Rock.
Brighton Park, Hays, Lacey, Roches-
ter. Grand Mound, Spurgeon Creek,
and Yelm. Following these demon
strations there will be one week de.
voted to a culling drive throughout
the entire county.
Richard Muzatko of Lacey, county
poultry leader, will organize the cul-
ling campaign. At these culling dem
onstrations the project leaders will
teach a number of poultrymen the
proper method Of culling. From these
groups, four will be formed, three
with training and one rookie. who
will proceed to a poultry farm and
perform the culling, the groups
spreading out with the dropping of
one experienced member and the addi-
ton of one without experience until
all the egg producers learn how to
Gull with some efficiency. In this
way it is hoped to eliminate all the
non-producers from the chicken
world.
Mr.. Muzatko, the county leader,
will designate few producers who
will keep comparatively complete
records Of the cost Of feed, the num-
Der OF eggs laid by their flocks. and
whenever possible by individual hens.
A number Of poultrymen have already
kept records for short periods but
this work contemplates an extended
and accurate record OF egg produc-
ton.

TO enter into this common heritage
OF the best of all, to be insp. red with
these ideals, to learn to understand
the institution which guarantees our
freedom and rights and enables us
to work together for the commoa
good, to resolve to forget all purely
selfish means for the work OF the
highest welfare of our country is to
become Americanized.
We should give to the foreign bora
population in the United States and
all Americanized foreign people the
fullest and freest opportunity; for
this is what We in the American Le-
gion mean by Americanization. Every
part OF our program is directed to
this end. Americanization is a pro-
cess OF education, of winning the
mind and heart through instruction
and enlightenment. From the very
nature OF Americanism it can make
little use Of force. 1t must depend
rather on the attractive power of the
logic Of the thing itself Were il to
resort to force by that very act it
would destroy its spirit and cease 10
be American. 1t would also cease TO
be American if it should become mar
row and fixed and exclusive, losing
its faith in humanity and rejecting
vital and enriching elements from
any source whatever.
Our program of education does not
compel, but invites and allures. 1t
may therefore, and probably must in
the beginning be slow, but in the end
will be swift and sure. Americana
zation is not something which the
government or group of individuals
may do for the foreign born or 9TH
ers 1t is what these persons may do
for themselves when the opportunity
is offered and they are shown the
way; what they do for the country,
and the institution they call democ-
racy. The function OF the American
Legion. and all other agencies inter-
ested in Americanization is to offer
the opportunity to make the appeal
and inspire the desire. They can and
should attempt nothing more than to
reveal in all their potential knowi
edge the profit and Joy Of working
together for common good and the
attainment of our high ideals, by
creating the desire to have a part in
the inspiring task and by showing
the way by which each may do his
part best and to help him set his feet
squarely in the way.

are used as windbraks, as frames

TANNING HIDES =

Make a solution Of about gallons
of water and 2 quarts OF hardwood
ashes. One quart of unslaked lime
will do Just as we'll as the ashes.
Place the hide In this solution and
allow It to remain for two or three
days. It should be left in this solu-
ton until the hair slips easily. II the
hide has been left until 1t is dry, 1t
should first be soaked in soft water
until II is as soft and pliable as O
green hide. When the hide is placed
in the water containing the ashes 1t
must be weighted down.
AS soon as the hair Will slip easily
remove the hide and scrape off the
hair. This can best DO done with the
dull edge of a butcher knife or other
similar contrivance, when the hide Ia
placed around BARI 81 or smooth log,
with the flesh side to the wood. Right
under the hair, over the real skin, Is
a iilm-like skin called the grain" II
corresponds to the membrane around
the contents of an egg, under the
shell. For smooth grained leather,
care must be taken not to scrape this
off when removing the hair. In scrap
ing the hair, begin at the neck and
work towards the tail.
After all the hair has been remov
ed, let the hide soak in rainwater for
about day. The water should be
mildly warmed. This soaking is to
rinse out all the lime or ashes. After
this, the hide is ready to go into the
tanning solution.
To make tanning solution for a
moderately heavy steer skin, boil to-
gether a quart OF soft soap and cup
full of fish oil until the oil \cuts the
soap. Then add two cups OF Ncoal oil
half a pint OF alum, half a pint Of ar
senic, and about a gallon and a hall
of soft water. Boil this a few min
utes, and let It cool down to a luke
warm temperature. For a calf, dog
or cat hide use only half as much
coal oil and two gallons OF water
With these lighter hides the arsenic
or alum will not be needed in the mix
ture.
When the tanning mixture has
cooled down to luke warm tempera
ture, put the hide in 1t and let 1t S
