"4NsDE" INFORMATION.

(U. s. Department Of Agricultural
Liver and bacon make a good din
ner meat, especially prepared, with
the merit of being very valuable in
the diet. Any kind of liver supplies
vitamines, iron, and furnishes the
body with protein and calories.
Peach dumplings, baked in muf-
fin pans, are seasonable now. Serve
hot with hard sauce, liquid sauce or
whipped cream. Peel the peaches
but do not remove the stones as
they give the dumping an extra
good flavor.
Unwrap meat as soon as 1t IS
brought from the market. and place
it in clean, dry dish in the refrig-
orator or other cold place until it
is wanted, Don't wash meat until
Just before cooking. Washing will
draw the juices out and hastens
spoilage.
Always take the pieces OF bacon
out of the skillet as soon as they
are delicately Drowned and crisp.
Drain them on clean, unglazed
paper. If you leave them in the
fat, they will be greasy. Cook
bacon in a heavy, broad iron skill
fet over a slow fire and watch it
constantly to prevent scorching.

There are three good reasons for
such road. The first is that rail-
road connection between towns of
the western part of the state is
practically non-existent, the second
is that very heavy tourist traffic
is now following the present roads,
some of which are inadequate, and
the third is that paved road would
open the Sioux City market to the
western Minnesota stock farmer.
But, Of course, neither this road,
nor several thousands of other miles
or roads in the state can be paved
until higher license taxes and
higher gas taxes produce the neces-
sary revenue.-Morris Tribune.

Birds Thaf Are Valuable

The biological survey says that dur

birds eat caterpillars, which they feed
In large numbers to their young. The

many birds, the most conspicuous ex-

notorious destroyers of the hairless

HIGHWAY NOTES.

Approximately 400 miles of con-
crete pavement have been con-
structed in Wisconsin tbs year, ac-
cording to announcement by the
state highway commission. With
pavement previously built this will
give the Badger state about 2,700
miles of permanent hard surfaced
highways.
The amount of new pavement
built this year is nearly four times
as great as the mileage built in Min
nesota, and it will give Wisconsin a
total hard surfaced mileage about
three times as great as Minnesota's.
There were 81 miles of paving
built in the Eau Claire division, but
most of the new pavement in Wis
consin was built in the eastern sec
tions of the state.
Traffic on Minnesota's highways
has increased IL per cent over last
year, according to a census of all
highways recently taken by the
state highway department. Com
missioner C. M. Babcock states that
900 miles of paving are needed at
once to meet the demands of this
increase. Traffic is increasing at
such rate that half of the high
ways of the state cannot stand up
without paving. 1t is high time for
the public to awaken to the need of
immediate paving and that means
bonding. When highway building
fails to keep pace with traffic pro-
gress, something must be done or
all that has been expended before
will be a loss. Paving is matter
of protection for what we already
have.-St. Peter Herald.
Somebody has pointed out the
Stiffness of buying high-priced
car and then grouching over the
small tax for keeping up good
roads to operate it over. Smooth
permanent roads put dollars in the

OIL OPERATORS
OF TULSA Vote
CUT PRODUCTION

TULSA, Oklo., July 20, tR)-Oil
operators of the greater Seminole area
today voted to put into effect cur
tailment program which would limit
production in the district to 100000
barrels daily.
Forty one companies were represent
ed at the meeting, 27 of which voted
to adopt the proposal of a committee
of five operators which would probate
the production in such manner that
each individual lease in the area
would be called upon to participate
in the curtailment.
Production in the district has been
around $4,000 barrels daily. The cut
proposed would be about IL per cent.
of the present production.
An attempt will be made to have the
curtailment plan apply to all OF the
operators in the area, including the
companies that did not vote for its
adoption. Representatives of these COM
panieS remained silent when their
names we're called.
Only one change was made in the
original proposal. The recommendation
of the drafting committee that the
agreement remain in effect as long
as there was excess production jim
the area was changed SO as to limit
the time to sixty days. 1t can be stop
ped in 80 days by unanimous agree
ment.
A committee of five mergers was
named today to work with Ray Col
Inns, umpire for the district, in carry
ing out the details of the program
When the agreement will become eff
fective was left at the discretion of
the committee.
1t is considered a possibility the
curtailment will begin in the next ten
days.

MINISTER shot
IN WASHINGTON;
SUICIDE DENIED

WASHINGTON July 20, (P)-Fran-
cisco Sanchez Latour, Guatemalian
minister, was in the emergency hos
pital tonight with wound over the
heart, inflicted by the minister's own
pistol, but his physician said he had
/ chance for recovery The shooting
was described by his wife and brother
as accidental.
Sonora Sanchez Latour said her
husband had been arranging some old
papers in a file in his study just after
midnight when he came across an old
fashioned automatic revolver.
'1I'his fell on his desk and diScharg-
ed" she said, "and then fell to the
floor where it broke into pieces. 1t is
foolish to assume that my husband at
tempted suicide. He had no financial,
political or domestic worries"
Delfino Sanchez Latour, brother OF
the wounded man and acting consul
! general for Guatemala in New York,
j issued a statement at the hospital to-
day saying: "The unfounded suspicion
I advanced in the morning papers that
my brother in any way attempted
suicide is SO obviously a distortion OF
fact that it needs no further COM
ment."
Unless complications set in, DR..
John M. Lyons, the minister's phySi-
clan, said he expected the patient to
recover steadily and soon be able TO
resume diplomatic duties.
The recent suicide in San Francisco
of Representative M. E. Crumpacker
of Oregon, who was friend of Min
lister Sanchez Latour, was believed by
some friends to have depressed the
minister Sonora Sanchez Latour said
the suicide aggrieved her husband,
"but 1 cannot believe suggested sui
eide to him." On the contrary she said,
"he could not understand how Mr..
Crumpacker could commit suicide,
| leaving behind wife and children"
Numerous friends of the minister, in
Guiding Herman Velarde, Peruvian am
bassador; Mira Khan Meftah, Per-
sian minister; and Alexandra Cesar,
Nicaraguan minister, called at the
hospital during the day while Secre-
tary Kellogg sent this note:
