MACHINE WILL CLEAN WHEAT

One source of economic waste has been the contamination of wheat by dirt and the seeds of various weeds and foreign grain, such as wild oats, buckwheat and many others. Lately a machine, which is illustrated and described in Popular Mechanics Magazine, has been designed and tested which seems to point to the solution of the problem of cleaning wheat at the time of threshing. It Is of simple construction and can be placed on the top of the threshing machine, receiving it's power from that source.

Clayton Sayler, who was found gull

THRIFT WON HER HUSBAND
Legend Tells Of Reward That Came to
French Girl Through Her
Cheese-Parine.

While the expression "cheese-par,
ing is recognized equivalent for
thrift or economy in the management
of household affairs, it is apparent the
moment we dissect the term that the
saving effected by the pairing of Il
cheese depends entirely upon the man
ner in which the operation is conduct
ed If one removes the rind of the
cheese carelessly, waste instead Of
economy results.
According to a French legend there
was a man who was in love with three
sisters at the same time. He could
not make up his mind which Of them
he ought to marry. The ability to be
thrifty housewife being the principal
requisite of a wife at that time, the
man decided to watch the three care
fully, and in order to make a test pre-
scented each of them with a large
cheese
Two of them removed the r1nd in
such manner that a considerable
portion of the cheese was thrown
away, but the youngest pared it with
a very sharp knife, and did not waste
a scrap. The man decided that she
would make the best wife, and they
were married.

Henry o. Malley Was Born in St
Johnsbury, Where He Started at
Ladders Bottom in 1897

Henry OMalley, a native Vermont
err has recently been appointed by
President Harding as Commissioner
of United States Fisheries, upon the
recommendation of the Secretary OF
Commerce.
Mr.. OMalley was born in St. Johns
bury, March p, 1876 and received
his education in the public schools OF
that town and later took a business
course. He entered the employment
of the Bureau of Fisheries at the St
Tohnsburv Hatchery as an apprentice
fish-culturist December, 1897, remain
ing in that capacity about year, when
ne was transferred to the bureau
station at Leadville, Colo, as a skilled
laborer
From there he was promoted to hsh
culturist at Baker Lake, wash IN
which capacity he remained about hVe
wears, when he was appointed super
;ntendent of the Washington stations
in Tulv, 1903. In 1907 MI O'Malley
was given charge of the bureaus work
in the Columbia River Watershed
where he remained until December,
1913 when he was placed in charge OF
the fsh-cultural work on the Pacihc
coast with headquarters at Seattle
In July, 1911 Mr. OMalley was
brought to Washington and made
chief oftbedivision of fish culture, re-
naming in that position until July |,
1o1S when he was placed in charge OF
all the bureaus activities on the
Pacific coast, which position now he
holds
In 1905 Mr. OMalley discovered
A salt solution process Tor separating
dead fish eggs from the i've ones,
thereby eliminating the necessity oi
employing many persons to remove
the dead eggs by hand and saving the
Government large sums OF money
each year
In Iol6 he was elected president OF
the Pacific Coast Fisheries Society ana
in 1918 Of the American Fisheries 80

At the time Of his assuming his
duties at the hatcheries in the Ool-

cline. 1t had been the practice II ND
crate the salmon fry when the yolA
sac was absorbed, but through MI.
O'Malley's efforts this method was
changed and the feeding OF young
salmon on an extensive scale vas be-
gun. The wisdom Of this change mas
been proven by the greatly improved
runs Of salmon in that locality IN re-
cent years. -,
For the past three years Nh o.
Malley has spent the entire hshin5
season in Alaska, making, in conJunc--
