will give every housewife in America
a chance to prove her inventive abil-
ity in the culinary field, will be
launched May LIST by the Postum
Cereal Co. Inc, of Battle Creek,
Michigan, manufacturer of Grape
Nuts.
Grocers are being supplied with
circulars, for free distribution over
their counters, giving full particulars
of the plan which is expected to re-
veal not less than one hundred new
uses for Grape-Nuts.
For more than rs years, Grape
Nuts has been sold and advertised
as a cereal food. But interesting
letters from women in all parts of
the country, describing the many at
tractive dishes they are making with
Grape-Nuts, have convinced the man
ufacturers that national drive for
new uses of Grape-Nuts should de-
velop host of valuable suggestions,
which will be warmly welcomed by
busy housewives everywhere.
Not less than 101 recipes or sug-
gestions will be purchased at $50
each and $2500 additional, divided
into four awards of $1,000, $3.50, and
$3.50, respectively, will be paid for
the four best recipes or suggestions
submitted. Good Housekeeping Mag
azine will decide the four recipes or
suggestions entitled to these special
awards.

 The Indians at Salcha had big pot lach recently, which was attended by number of whites. The Federal au- thorities are inclined to frown on this barbarious practice of the Indians as it always leaves them impoverished for years. At a potlatch the native giv- ing 1t converts all his wealth into pre- sents which are generously distribut- ed to the tribe giving him "face" for the remainder of his life.

EDWARDS GUILTY ONE COUNT
BENNETT NOT GUILTY

The two cases which occupied the
attention of the court on the criminal
docket last week, were disposed of so
far as that body was concerned. at
the close of the week.
Sam Edwards was found guilty on
the second count Of burglary.
The case of People VS.. l.. E. Ben
nett charged with larceny of calf
which was claimed by w. E. School
field, was reviewed for several days
and the jury returned verdict of not
guilty. This controversy came about
over a yearling calf which bore the
brands of both Mr.. Schoolfield and
Mr.. Bennett2 1t appears Mr.. Ben
nett had lost a calf which he had
branded personally in its early day
and it became mixed with the School
field cattle on the range. and the
brand was so indistinct, that it was
not found at the time the Schoolfield
brand was put on. Later on when the
animal returned, Mr.. Bennett had 1t
branded again in substantially the
same place as his former brand. Con-
siderable time was taken up in litiga'
tion and he was relieved Of the
charge by court action.
