Farm Women Camps
On Eastern Screens

MOSCOW.-The annual series of
camps for farm women has been the
source of a great deal of nationwide
publicity for Idaho during the last
year.
Word has just been received from
5000 persons recently viewed the mo-
Washington, d. c., that an audience of
ton picture taken by department of
agriculture photographs at the Idaho
camps last summer The same pic
lures have been shown throughout the
eleven western states and in many
other parts of the country. The camp
movies" are low being screened in
Idaho
Plans for this summers series of
outings are we'll under way. Miss
Marion Hepworth, state leader of
home demonstrations has Just an
nounced the probable dates, and loca-
tons will be made public within the
near future. Six camps are scheduled
this year.
Because of the expanded program
the camp season this summer will
probably begin the last week in June.
The eastern district camp, to be held
in the vicinity of the Tetons, has been
set tentatively for June 20 to July 1.
The western district camp comes next,
according to tentative arrangements
1t is to be held somewhere in the
Starkey Hot Springs territory, July
6 to 8.
The other four camps are tentatively
scheduled as follows: Southeastern
district, in Bear Lake county, prob
ably July IL to IA; Bannock county,

trict, near HALEY, about July 81 to 20;
and the northern district August

~ VERY mother of boys is
aware that pie must appear
on the table "every so often.
If she thinks too much of the reg
ul,.r kind of pie is not good for her
family, she still pleases them by
providing pie but uses occasionally
just the bottom crust, or substl-
tutes cake crust.
1t is amazing how, during the
last few years, pineapple pie has
supplanted in favor many OF the
old-time favorites. 1t won enthu-
siastic acceptance with pie-fanciers
at the first taste, and has steadily
increased in popularity.
This delicious fruit lends itself
particularly we'll for use. in UNI
covered pies, which are both more
wholesome than the covered and
may be made more decorative.
Topped with a golden meringue, or
in tart form, the fruit showing a
glace surface, pineapple pies are
decidedly appetizing. Three we'll
tested recipes follow.

syrup drained from crushed Hawaii

prettier if red cherries are mixed
with the pineapple.

Federal Government
Offers Liberal Help

The agricultural appropriation bill,
which was signed by President Cool
idge on January 18, contained an ap-
preparation of $5.964,O0O to carry on
the work of bovine tuberculosis eradi-
cation in this country. 1t is from this
fund that state tubercular indemnities
are matched by the government, so,
just in proportion to the amount ap-
propriated by the states can this fund
be drawn upon to help to indemnify
owners of reacting cattle.
The State of Washington is attempt
ing to get state appropriation Of
100000, and may have been success
full by the time this appears in print.
Should the attempt prove successful
there will be available during the next
two years for indemnifying purposes,
at least 100000 above the cost of ad-
ministering the test.

Urges Caution in
Planting Peppermint

That increased planting of pepper
mint should be done with extreme care
is the advice given growers by County
Agent D. sB. Leonard, Cowlitz County
now has about 500 acres, with consid-
cradle acreage in Wahkiakum and
Clarke counties. Intention to plant is
reported in Lewis, Grays Harbor, Yak
ina, Skagit and Kittitas counties. Re-
liable information is that the price
trend on distilled oil is downward. The
consumption of peppermint oil in the
United States is about 100000 pounds
annually, with small quantity ex-
ported. The supply produced in 1925
was $4,000 pounds. Increased acre
age would easily make possible one
million pounds, with a resulting drop
in price.
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1927-04-01

The United States Bureau of Dairy
ing reports 1,627,000 fewer dairy cat
tie in this country on January 1, 1927,
than was the case on January 1, 1926.
The number at milking age years
old or over-was given at 21,S24,0OO,
which was reduction in number of
$4,000 under what it was the year
before. The only conclusion that can
be drawn from this report showing
such discrepancy between the shrink
age in the number of dairy cattle of
all ages and those of milking age is
that the ruthless slaughter of heifer
calves continues.
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1927-04-01

In balancing rations for dairy cows,
the lack of succulence is noted in
many cases. Beet pulp is being used
to supply this, reports o. ]. Hill,
Thurston County COW tester. Balanc-
ing grain rations to winter conditions
is being urged upon producers. Drink
ing cups, as recommended by the
agent, have been installed by Nelson &
Son and H. B. Dodge. The latter
dairyman is using waste water from
the milk cooler to supply water in the
drinking cups.

the console table, or small desk, and
a couple of straight chairs black.
A deep-blue bowl of crimson flow

A light-colored parquet or hard

it is appropriate to use a maho-

CURED at 1.50 o'clock. The street cars
remained idle on the tracks until 3:25
o'clock, and suburban cars did not
begin to roll until o'clock.
Hundreds of passengers using the
Washington, Baltimore & Annapolis
Railway Co. spent more than two
hours yesterday afternoon stalled at
various points along the line, while
similar experience was afforded those
aboard the cars of the Washington
Virginia Railway Co. and the Wash
ington & Old Dominion Railway Co.
Many of those aboard the Washing
ton Railway & Electric Co.'s cars
abandoned the cars and walked home,
several hundred persons stranded be-
tween the Zoo and their homes, max
ing the rest of the distance afoot.
Pedestrians lined the sidewalks along
the routes of the idle car lines.
Apartment Elevators Shut on.
Apartment house dwellers got along
without elevator service during the
suspension of power. Those who use
electric cookers found themselves un.
able to prepare their food and had 1t
not been for an emergency plant
which took care of the telephone serv-
ice telephone communication through
out the city would have been cut off.
Guests at hotels suffered surprise
and some inconvenience, but there was
little excitement and hotel men stated
this morning that their guests took
the suspension of service in an ex-
tremely good natured way. Had the
electric power gone off at night
panic might have ensUsd, 1t was in
dicated.
When the elevators at the May
flower Hotel ceased to run. guests
were forced to climb to their rooms
via the fire towers situated in the
hotel. The landings were lit by
candles and additional candles were
placed in the corridors. offices on the
promenade and in the kitchen where
chefs prepared the evening meal.
Several big boxes Of candles were
used during the afternoon.
Trouble at Washington Monument.
Visitors to the Washington Monu
ment came in for some unexpected
exercise. except for a lucky 80 who
were being discharged from the ele-
vator at the base of the shaft as the
power went off. Those who were on
the landings and at the top walked
down.
Those hearing program broad
cast by WRC received intimation of
the accident when the program
abruptly stopped. Theater crowds
also were inconvenienced. Some of
the theaters did not open their doors
until the resumption of power, crowds
waiting in the lobbies.
Thousands of persons walked to the
base ball park and little groups of
persons waited in vain for the cars to
come.
Spraker had been employed by the
company for the past 10 years. Be-
sides his wife, he is survived by a
215 -year-old daughter, Elizabeth, and

pital, where he had been a patient fol-
lowing an accident a few days ago
when he was thrown through the
windshield of an automobile.

SAYS HAYNES IS HELD IN JOB

Head of 'Wets" Charges Wayne B. Wheeler
Seeks to "Force" Secretary Mellon
to Retain Dry Chief

the near future. It will be more diff
ficult to Offset it this time for these
reasons
The Wheeler report was then quot
ed at length as to the reasons. These
included the popular notion that a
new President had a right to choose
his own officials: that the legitimate
alcohol dealers were complaining that
Haynes had curtailed their supply:
that Secretary Mellon, Mr.. Blair and
the Assistant Secretary who supervises
customs and prohibition, Judge Moss,
have been more or less irritated at
times because of the rulings and the
aggressive policies of the prohibition
unit" and had "overruled many of
these decisions and policies, etc"
Wheeler Explains.
In this latter connection, Mr..
Wheeler was quoted as follows:
ut is, of course, true that there
are many failures of prohibition, but
those failures are caused by superyis-
ing officers, district attorneys, and
dereIict judges rather than by the
prohibition unit. Had 1t not been for
the aggressive fight which the pro-
hibition unit made, prohibition en-
forcement would be far less effective
than it has been.
A break between Commissioner
Haynes and Commissioner Blair had
been considered by Wheeler as 'in-
evitable" as far back as May II,
1928, according to minutes of the
meeting Of the executive committee
Of the league disclosed by Stayton.

today.
The admiral said that Chen had In

that the Nationalist government

damage to buildings and other foreign

suls, in turn, had notified him that
the Nationalist government would be

Conditions at Hankow were said
to be mo better" with the financial
situation described as cnaotlc, with

Cantonese troops continued the bonn
bardment of Puko, across the river
from Nanking, using the guns of the
Lion and Tiger Hill fortifications, Ad-
lniral Williams said.

Chang Kai-shek's troops are now near

Shanghai" he added. Trenches are
being dug in the rear of concessions
and ex-concessions. Two Krupp guns
have been mounted on a hill in
Wuchang, bearing on Hankow."
Admiral Williams said that he had
sent a landing force ashore at Hankow
to guard the upper Standard Oil in
