Irving Owings agreed to deed his
part TO the county and has taken the
deed for execution.
Mr.. Hay was awarded $25. to which
has been added 81 awarded TO Mel

the Melbourne property.
Both Mason and Hay declined to
accept the cash tenders.
Notwithstanding this situation, the

PRESSING WOODEN GARMENTS
Department Of Agriculture Advises
Using Thick Cloth to Sponge
and Dampen Goods.

Many people have difficulty in press
ing wooden garments without making
them shiny. The United States De-
partment of Agriculture advises using
a thick cloth to sponge and dampen
the goods. Plaits or folds may be
basted in place, but the stitches
should be drawn as oon as the cloth
is steamed; otherwise the thread will
mark the material. Heavy irons are
more satisfactory on materials such
as used in mems suits. Lay the thick,
damp cloth over the material and then
press.
The appearance of wooden materi-
ais that have worn shiny may be i'm
proved by covering the right side Of
the material with a cloth wrung out
of ammonia water "a or 5 drops Of
ammonia to l quart Of water), press
ing with a medium-hot iron until the
cloth is partly dry, and then brushing
the place vigorously with a stiff brush.
In silk and wool, wrinkles such as
are caused by packing may be re-
moved by hanging the garment either
out of doors on a damp day, or in a
steamy room.

One way to do 1t Is to serve combina-

The classic example of a mixture of
vegetables Is of course s~uccotash-

Peas Blend Well.
Peas seem to blend well with other
vegetable f~lavors, especially those
which are slightly sweet. They are
often served with an equal quantity
Of carrots, diced either before or after
