OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
IMPRISONMENT
By Mrs S

A BORN FARMER
Yes, there are born farmers as well
as born teachers and preachers and
captains of industry. One of these
farmers is but u boy of 16 but he is
sure to be heard of later as a leader
among his kind in California. This
boy lives at Torrance and has just fin
ished his course in the grammar school
there. His name is Basil Brady.
Basil's father is wise man in his
generation and believes the best place
to raise boys is in the country. He
has given them a chance too, and Basil
has a nice bunch of ducks and chickens
which he keeps almost entirely upon
home grown feed. But he has even
larger ambitions than that and some
thing of a business head, together with
courage and initiative, characteristics
essential to success in any calling.
Last February he leased an acre of
ground and planted it to potatoes.
From this acre he harvested a fine
and profitable crop. 1t is now planted
in root crops in which the young farmer
is deeply interested. He has a real
ambition to become an honest to good
ness. truck farmer, and is to try it,
though most of the neighbors are OF
the race that have made white competi-
tion in truck farming almost impossi-
Bile, Mr.. Roos Cast says.

TIE WINDING ROAD


Lillian Burklardt Goldsmith has
been engaged by the Orpheum for the
summer at a salary of $500 per week,
it is said, and she has been given the
privilege of all the "highbrow work
Of which she is capable during the per
iod of her engagement, the manage
ment believing that Los Angeles wants
and needs the very things this talented
woman is able to give.
Mrs. Goldsmith is dramatiSt, lee

coast to coast as among the best. But
above all, Mrs. Goldsmith is a woman
of rare spirituality, giving of her best

appearing before clubs of the state in
her various roles, Fl Centre clubwomen

dark. All these we must pass on our
way. But all along the winding road
are resting places cool and shady.
BAKING THE CAKE
More cakes are spoiled in the baking
than by defects in the recipe or mix
ing of the batter. A home agent gives
these suggestion for baking cakes:
See that the oven is ready to receive
the cake. Too hot an oven is more
destructive to good results in making
cake than one too cool. Experience
must be the guide to success until rell-
able thermometers have been devised.
1t is well for the inexperienced to re-
member flat great haste and a VERY
hot oven eonlsih9teseften to the failQrg
in the making of the cake.
When Il cake rises unevenly because
of uneven temperature of the oven 1T
will readily be observed that the light
est part of the cake is on the cool side
of the oven. This is proof that the
oven should not be too hot for success
full cake baking. If the oven is too
cool, the cake may become overnight,
with subsequent danger of falling.
If cake is baking unevenly, it may
be turned. in the oxen, providing the
turning is done before the top crust is
formed and has begun to harden. If
the turning is done after the crust
hardens, the cake may fall. If it falls
a little in the batter stage, it will prob
ably rise again in a normal way.
During the baking, the oven heat
should be increased gradually but very
slightly till the cake Is Drowned, when
it may be slightly reduced. On an
average a thin loaf of cake should
bake in 40 minutes, while a thick loaf
should bake for at least an hour. Fruit
cakes may require several hours.
If the oven is too hot, leave the door
Slightly open or place dish of cold
water on the CRATE i'll the oven. 1t the
cake bakes too fast, cover the upper
CRATE above the cake with a piece OF
paper. If the paper is laid directly
on top of the cake, it is likely to stick
and should not be removed until the
cake has cooled

how they are missed when away, and
how glad we will be when they can
come home again. 1t is Il lot better
than having them all so far away in
the summertime, in Los Angeles and
San Francisco and San Diego where
they must stay for a long long time
We surely are glad Imperial valley has
its roof garden so close to home, it
makes it much happier for the folks
that must stay by to do the work of
the valley and keep things going in a
business way.
