Sixteenth street to be entirely salts.

you Ia mill State levy.
In 1921 you paid tor contract on

exclusive Of rock road work aud
that done by the day aud iu small,

You paid commissioners on road

You paid your Supervisors for

On one road in your County,
where the contract was only $50 90
YOU spent for the first eleven

$50 90 work fhe sum of $50 20.
Pear reader leave this to YOU
to digest If it not too heavy for
digestion.
In a later letter | sh all undertake to
show you that OF the sos. 000. .00
you pay the State tor taxes sou get

LABELS FOR CANNED
GOODS ARE FAVORED
Information WIN Be Wanted Dur
ing Winter Season.
Not Always Easy Matter to Remember
History of Each Jar or Can
Printed Slips Should Have
All Necessary Data.

After busy ten or twelve hours
of canning, woman is inclined TO
think that anything else added on TO
the days work would be just little
too much However, tomorrow is an
other day and one can then us>thly
find an hour or SO in which to label all
yesterdays cans with the information
that will be wanted next winter.
1t would seem wise to do this, ac-
cording to the office of home economies
of the United States Department Of
Agriculture fer though at the time of
canning we may think we shall always
recognize every Jar and remember its
history, when winter comes we may
often be doubtful, until We open a
jar, whether It holds nlackberries or
black raspberrles, or whether certain
glass of jelly Is plum or currant.
Labels may either be purchased or
made at home by cutting plain paper
In pieces about 1 by inches; they
should have all the necessary data
printed or written on them and then
they should be pasted on the Jars at
a uniform distance from the bottom.
For example, two such labels might

BISCUIT CUTTER is USEFUL
No Special Directions Are Needed for
Using Little Tool for Mixing
Fat and Flour.

For combining shortening with flour
in making pie crust, cutting it in with
knives is hygienic Improvement that
is considered better than the time-hon-
ored method of mixing it in with the
tip of the fingers. Moreover, aside
from hygienic considerations, han
ding the dough TOO much makes a
tough crust.
The office Of home economics of the
United States Department OF Agricul-
,ure has lately employed third meth
OF of mixing fat and -four. which is
to cut I'm the fat with the biscuit cut
ter.
No special directions are needed TO
guide the cook who would adopt this
simple little tool for this purpose. The
fat is added to the sifted -four and
salt and the two are chopped together
more or less thoroughly, depending
upon the quality Of pie crust desired
The water is added and the biscuit cut
ter is. used again to combine the water
with the fat-and-hour mixture
Having discovered one new way of
using an old tool, the Office OF home
economics saw these other POSSIBLE
tiles:
Use 1t to mix fat and flour for baking
powder suits.
Use it to chop fruit, when the fruit is
to be used on shortcake, in making jelly
or jam, or as sauce for ice cream
Use 1t to chop cold. boiled potatoes for
