Sister Mary Tells
How To Make
Different Breads

A f6af of bran or graham bread
dressed up with nuts or raisins often
helps out a scanty meal and proves
a friend indeed 10 the busy house
keeper in canning season.
These breads are quickly and
easily uade, are highly nutritious
and can be used in place of des-
sert.
A tiny dainty sandwich served with
afternoon tea, be the tea hot OF iced,
will appeal to any caller IL the bread
be bran. For she who would "eat
and grow thin" may eat bran bread
with impunity.
And a generous piece OF this same
bread generously spread with butter
will satisfy Johnny when he comes
In starved from work or play and
make him quite forget he wanted
candy.

MAKES
SHOW ADVANCE
Five Hundred Dollars
Appropriated for the
Poultry Exhibit.

Five hundred dollars was subscribed
by the Caldwell Development League
at the regular monthly meeting held
Friday evening, to underwrite the 3rd
Annual Gem State Poultry Show to
be held here next January. An appro-
priation of $4,000 has already been
made and largely expended in meeting
incidental expenses for the show.
Estimates supplied to the league
board by r. T. HURT, secretary of the
show, forecasted a probable expense
of 500. This sum does not include
$500 appropriated by the state, con-
tracts for which were recently signed
by Mark Means. commissioner of ag-
riculture, nor revenues from entry
fees.
One OF the items to increase the cost
OF the show this year is the necessity
for the purchase of additional coops,
about $500 being set aside for that
purpose. This investment is made
necessary by the increased number of
birds shown each year and the prob
ability that this years exhibits will
considerably exceed those at previous
shows.
Additional expense must be borne
by the local fund in staging the show
because of the fact that heretofore the
total annual state appropriation of
$3.50 has been available This year
Mr. Means has contracted with the
Lewiston livestock show for $3.50 Of
that total.
Following the practice of past years,
the show and institute will be free this
year to all visitors. Already arrange
ments are being made to insure an
other strong institute program in con-
nection with the show.

curtailment and the combination in re.

still of interest to the government, al
though the speciality has passed in the
past two or three years from the en-
forcement of the Sherman antitrust
law to giving support to the ragged
ends of the Esch- Cummins act, which
has to do with the operation of the
