FAMOUS BUTTER GAINS
IN POPULARITY HERE

Probably unknown to many resi-
dents Of the National Capital,
Washingtonians are among the big.
gest consumers of butter in the
United States and the highest class
buffers find a. ready market here.
Joseph Atkins, distributor for Elk
Grove butter in Washington, whose
establishment is at 205 Seventh
street northwest, reports that re-
cent weeks have broken all rec
ords for volume sales of this cele.
brated product of the sanitary and
government inspected dairies and
creameries in Minnesota.

In the table of meats the weight
of poultry is taken after 1t IS
dressed, as it is more often pur-
chased In this way. The haddoclx
for baking, however, is weighed
unclaimed, and with the head on,
as it is bought. There is a large
amount of waste in fish when IN
cleaned, which accounts for the
greater weight OF fish than Of other
foods required for six people. A
four-pound paddock will make
four generous or six small serv-
ings. For six generous servings
select a five-pound fish. For
praised beef or pot roast select
three pounds from the brisket,
flank, or round. The three-pound
roast Of beef is boned, and the
lamb chops are trimmed. Twelve
French chops will average two and
one-fourth pounds. This allows
two small chops for each person,
but does not allow for a second
serving. Six shoulder lamb chops
viii weigh from two to two and
one-half pounds, depending upon
the thickness OF cutting. This al
lows one chop for each person with
no second serving. These chops, Of
course, are much larger than the
French chops. Six veal chops
weigh one and three-fourth pounds.
This allows one for each person.
Two and one-fourth pounds of veal
chops will allow one chop to each
person and two to three second
servings.
A chicken weighing pounds
when dressed will serve six with a
good serving for each person but
does not allow any second serving.

More Attention to This
Traffic Problem Is
Asked by Expert.

More attention must be paid to city

president of the Packard Motor Car
Co., who recently addressed the ma
tional conference on city planning in
New York.
I'VE have been so busy boosting
highways to take man from one

what happens when he gets there.
But now we must add to the slogan
of Good Roads one of Better
Streets With adequate funds and
public support the city engineers of
the larger cities could eliminate the
most serious traffic difficulties, at
least for some years"
Mr.. Macauley, who has made a
special study of city streets as a
member OF the traffic planning and
safety committee of the National
Automobile Chamber of Commerce,
said too many of our streets are
built on the 1852 model, when William
Penn laid out the first checkerboard

SUMMER GOOD TIME
FOR BREAKING IN CAR
Washington Dealer Describes Pre-.
cautions New Owners
Should Take.

Breaking in new car in hot wealth
err can be a positive advantage for the
owner If he will bear in mind Il few
seasonable precautions, according to
Joe McReynolds, local Studebaker
dealer.
Hot weather, Mr.. McReynolds
points out, obyiates the necessity for
excessive choking when starting the
motor and provides for freer circula-
ton of the oil when the engine is
cold
But these natural advantages are
of little consequence If the buyer fails
to guard against the hazards of break
ing in q new car in hot weather" he
says. AT this time of year there is
always the temptation to start of on
a long tour with the new car before
one is certain that it is tuned up for
the occasion. The owner of an old
car would hardly think of starting his
tour without making sure that the
fan belt is tight, but just because his
car is new he assumes that every
thing is in order, whereas it might be
that the last man who filled up the
engine with oil accidentally poured
some on the fan pulley.
Sometimes the engines of new cars
are timed late, to prevent the owner
from scoring the cylinders by driving
too fast the first few weeks he has
the car. This is a wise precaution.
but if the owner starts to climb a
steep hill on very warm day the
chances are the engine will overhead.
The answer TO this is to keep away
from the hills until 500 miles have
registered on the odometer
Since the new motor is likely to
run hot for a while, ii is we'll to open
up the hood when stopping as a pre-
caution against damaging the paint.
Usually this process will be doubly
profitable if the opportunity is also
utilized to see whether there is enough
oil in the crank case

NEW AUTO PAINT
PROVES SUCCESS
: NItrOCelIuloSe Product Meets
Rigid Test as RefiniSh
for Cars.

RefiniBhing automobiles has been
reduced to a comparatively simple
process. A quick and effective
method was described recently by J.
}. Riley of the du Pont Co. before the
society of Automotive Engineers.
This method consists of spraying on
with compressed air a durable finish
made OF much the same material used
as the backs of imitation ivory hair
brushes and other toilet articles.
This new type of finish.'' said Mr..
Riley, lis a kind of nitrocelluloSe
known as pyroXylin, which is made
by dissolving purified cotton in nitric
acid and putting it through process
that prepares it for the admiXture of
solvents, gums and pigments to pro

"Alkali removers also are much
used. but great care must be taken
to protect portions of the body that

has been taken off by either of these
methods, the body must be cleaned
and sanded smooth and the entire
body and wheels washed with de-

TO MAKE WISCONSIN GREAT
EST IN AMERICA
Lard O'Lakes Association Has Start
ed Movement to Enlist Eight
Thousand Persons.

Wisconsin of today would 0e a
much different country I during
the half century there had been a
concerted advertising campaign and
cooperative movement To exploit the
resources of our wonder state-won-
derful not only from natures stand
point, but as a result of human
effort and planning.
California and Florida once were
almost the waste places of our coun-
try. Today, as the result of man
made effort, they are soon to be-
come the world famous garden
spots. The key to their achievements
has been effective organization. In
dividually, they would have accom-
plished but little, but working to-
gether guided by a great booster
spirit, they have achieved almost the
impossible.
Contrast these states with Wis
consin. Nature was far more kind
to Wisconsin than to them. They
would give millions of dollars to get
the 1000 lakes, rivers, forests and
ever changing scenery that Wiscon-
sin is blessed with. They would so
capitalize their beauty and advan-
tages that the investment would be
returned many times. The tremen-
dous assets of Wisconsin have been
here for ages but for some reason or
other have not been capitalized.
Wisconsin The Land O. Lakes, Inc,
has inaugurated a movement to en-
list 5000 or more people of Wis
consin in the association this year.
to make Wisconsin the greatest land
in America eve should raise an adj
vertising fund of $4,000, said Mr.
Burt Williams, president of the as
sociation, land it is our purpose to
visit every County in the state either
in person or by letter and the citi-
zens win have an opportunity to be-
come members and aid in this far
reaching movement.
1.-The people of Wisconsin should
realize the Importance of this. Self
protection requires it, for on the
one side is Minnesota with an or
ganization that has Increased the
tourist business to over 25,000,000
annually, on the other side is
Michigan whose tourist business
through organization and liberal
advertising now reaches over $780,
100000 annually"

in the state office are of new MEM
bers or of old members who want to
