A certain small boy In grade num-
Der six was rapidly assuming manly
ways. Not long ago, says writer in
the Cleveland Plain Dealer, there was
to be an entertainment at his school.
Songs, Rotations and grab-bag
were the principal features. The
small boy waxed eloquent Of the COM

especially OF the part he was to take.
On the morning Of the entertain

Americans Make the Best Bank-Notes

To say that Americans make the

sound at first rather boastful, ana
yet any history of the art and In

American bank-note artist, and from
the time of the chartering Of the
Bank OF North America under the di-
rection of Robert Morris. in 1T6l,
up to the present, American engrav'
ers have excelled not only in the ar
tistic quality of their designs, but in
their provisions against counterfeit

government led the way in this.

was tried, the notes being engraved

The Brazilians tried bank-notes
made in France. and these were
promptly and extensively initiated as

WASTED RAIN POWER.
One Can Measure IT, But Who Can
Utilize It7

OItIIZG III
Energy is wasted in every direc-
ton, although during the past two
or three years considerable yingen-
uity has been manifested in efforts
to turn natural resources to ac-
count. Thus the suns rays are be-
ing harnessed to furnish steam for
pumping operations in Egypt and
other tropical countries; the wind Is
utilized for pumping and for the
generation of electricity; but so
far no one has attempted to make
profitable use of the rainfall, al
though a tremendous amount of en-
ergy is thereby running to waste.
A correspondent in an American
Journal has recently pointed cut
what we are losing through our fall
ure to make use of the rainfall.
The district in which that observer
resides was visited by a severe rain
storm, the fall of water aggregating
AIT inches in 10 hours over an area
of 10 square miles. He estimated the
heights of the rainclouds to be 5000
feet, and on that basis some 5000
100000 pounds of water fell during
the 10 hours, representing 100000
horse power hours.
The correspondent estimates that
II this. energy were harnessed, 1000
arc lamps in the city streets could
be kept ALT Herewith for 425 days.
Ii one rainstorm would furnish such
an enormous amount of energy what
would be available II we were able
to turn the whole rainfall to ac-
count? At all events. the foregoing
interesting computation conveys a
graphic idea concerning the enormous
energy at work in nature.

Lesson No. 4
Pies Like His Mother Used to Make"

DIE has been called the great Amer
= lean dessert, and to be able to con-
struct a good pie is one of the supreme
tests of a cook.
The first essential of any pie is a 1aky,
tender crust-the kind that will fairly
melt in your mouth" One of the secrets
of this is to have your ingredients as cold
as possible when they are mixed another
is to avoid handling the pastry dough
more than is absolutely necessary.
There are many kinds of filings that
can be used for making pies. Fruit, mince-
meat and similar filings are usually in
convenient form and require little special
preparation. In this lesson / will give you
some excellent recipes for more compli-
Gated pies.

PUP SAVES CHILD
FROM BIG RATTLESNAKE

How the life OF their one-year-old
son was saved by the intelligence and
courage OF a six-months-old terrier
puppy is related by Mr.. and Mrs,
Fritz Jatsek, c~aretakers at the county
fair grounds at Roundup. Despite
the fact that the dog was twice BIT
ten by a rattlesnake, II refused to
abandon the child and prevented the
little fellow from coming within
reach OF the deadly fangs.
The incident occurred while Mrs.
Jatsek was In the cellar at their
home. When she started for the cell
lar the child expressed a desire to
accompany her, and she told him to
come on. After descending the out
side stairway, Mrs. Jatsek heard the
child crying and the dog barking APP

h%urriedly returned to the steps and
was Mortified to see a big rattlesnake
coiled at the top, its head swinging

puppy, which stood bravely between

The child, unused to this form OF

mother and thus forced the dog so

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE

OF FARMERS
Finds that Average City Resident
Consumes 200 Pounds Of Potatoes;
MIA Consumption Varies With Ma
ttonaltty, Survey Discloses.

In order to deal more inteIligentll
with marketing problems, the STATE
department of agriculture and pub
lfcity has assembled figures which
tend to gauge the per capita con
sumption of products which are
grown on the farm or are manufac-
tured ~ by-products.
According to these figures, every
city resident, or rural for that mat
ter, consumes on an average 200
pounds of potatoes yearly. Thus the
average mine in Butte employing 400
men creates q market for $4,000
of potatoes q year, which means that
each mine of this size takes the po-
tato crop Of approximately 11.3 acres
Of ground, figuring an average yield
of 40 bushels to the acre, which was
the average for Montana In 1922.
Each resident OF the city of Mis-
soula, II he lives up to the statistical
rule, will drink seven-elevenths of a
quart Of milk daily. But whether
this II little or much cannot be de-
termined for there are no figures
or estimates available for other Mon
tana cities. Figures for the United
States ~ . whole, however, show
that the average city resident drinks
or uses In his food so gallons OF milk
each year. II these and figures with
which they r compared are cor
rect, the city nan uses slightly more
milk than his brother who lives In
the country, for the average for sub
urban residents Is 40 gallons a year.
