Rhubarb Perrogative of Spring

If YOU have a garden in your back
ward, | know that there are knobby
bursting rhubarb spears which are
pushing their heads up through the
fragrant black loan. And | know that
you will gather the slender pink
stalks topped by their dark green ruff
fled fans, in order that your table
may be enlivened by clear rosy sauce,
and the appetites of your family
whetted by this spring tonic Of Moth
er Natures.
Leafing through a book on the
chemistry of food and nutrition, | find
that hundred calory portion of rhu-
barb contains more calcium and phos-
phorus than a hundred Galleries of
milk. Of course by weight, one would
have to consume three times as much
rhubarb as milk to get a hundred cal
cries. But yet we may consider rhu
Dd1D DIS dill dDulluo1I SOuiSS Vi GiiCoC
two minerals. 1t is also rich in iron,
richer than the much feted raisin.
Apparently a great deal of work
has not yet been done to discover
what vitamins may be present in rhu-
barb. There is evidence, however, of
vitamin c., which is preventative of
scurby and essential for growth and
good health.
But yet, if rhubarb contained no
healthful minerals and vitamins, it
would still be my favorite spring
vegetable Cor should it be called
fruit? y. Favorite because of its dis
tinctive color and smooth racy fla
vor hope that when you cook rhu-
barb you do not peel it, for when you
do, most of the delight of color and
taste is lost.
Perhaps you have already discover
ed that baking. rhubarb sauce is so
much better than stewing it in the or
binary way. Not only is it deepened
to a richer ruby, but the flavor seems
ruby too, luscious with a tang.

be baked and then exposed to sun
light. Carpets and rugs should be
washed with antiseptic solution 70
per cent solution of chlorinated lime;
5 per cent carbolic acid solution;
800 bichloride of mercury solution;
or 5 per cent formaldehyd solutlon.)
The floors and woodwork of the pa
TENTS room should be scrubbed with
a solution consisting of one pound OF
washing soda in three gallons of hot
water. A vacuum cleaner should be
used on the walls and ceiling The
ideal plan is to paint the woodwork
and renew the paper of calcimine.
To make assurance doubly sure
fumigation of the room is in order.
In cases where the disease is trans
mitted by animals carriers (fleas, flies,
mosquitoes) the best agent is sulphur.
One pound to each 200 cubic feet is
sufficient.
In diseases that are not borne by
animals formaldehyd is best. The
room should be at temperature of
|65 degrees F. and relative humidity
of 65 degrees, both of which can be
maintained by boiling water in the
room.
In communities that support a
health officer it is his business to
carry out such disinfection, or see
that it is done. Where such service
is not available the assistance of the
family physician must be invoked.

LABOR FAVORS POWER

There was a time in this country
not so many years ago when labor
looked with suspicion upon labor-sav-
ing machinery and power develop
ment. Instances are on record in
which labor saving devices were des-
troyed through fear that they would
throw workers out of employment.
No such sentiment exists today, be-
cause the workers have learned from
experience that better wages and
shorter hours have followed in the
wake of greater production made pos
sible by modern machinery.
AS president William Green of the
American Federation of Labor de-
clared IN an address some months ago:
electrically driven machinery has
lightened the burden of employment,
and relieved them of the drudgery and
hardship OF human toll. They now do
with the machine what at one time
required the strength and vigor of
their bodies. Work has been made cas-
Ter, life has been made more toler
able, living conditions have improved,
and the workers have been permitted
to enjoy the blessings and benefits
of modern life"
The next step in the extension of
these benefits to those who toll will
be through supplying electricity to
the farmer. Already an suspicious
start in this direction has been made,
and if the farmers will only cooperate
in securing the aid of electrical pow
er and machinery, they will become as
enthusiastic regarding it as are the
industrial workers whom Mr.. Green so
ably represents.
The Carbon County news. [volume] (Red Lodge, Mont.) 1924-1931, 1927-05-12

No truer sentiment ever found ut
terance from "a true American than
that proclaimed by Lowell when he
said: what made our revolution a
foregone conclusion was the act Of the
general court, passed in May, 1647,
which established the system of pub
lie schools"
If, then, our public school system
is the father Of onr liberty, what more
natural then that pride and loyalty
be entertained for it on the hearts
of our people? This sentiment finds
occasional outward manifestation on
special holidays during the school
year, but its chief interest has come
to be centered around commence
ment" or the exercises attending the
closing week of the school year and
the graduation of it's senior class. On
this occasion may be noted demon
stration equal to the depth of feeling
entertained in our hearts for this the
greatest of American institutions.
Friday, May goth will mark the
close of one of the most successful
years in the history Of the Roberts
school. The real climax of the school
year there, however, will be reached
on Wednesday evening, May 18, when
six young men and women, constitut-
ing the 1927 class of the Roberts high
school, will receive their diplomas
at the annual commencement exer-
cises to be held at the Community hall
in that city.
The exercises of commencement
week will begin with the baccalaur-
cate sermon which will be preached
next Sunday by Rev. Frank Durant of
Red Lodge. Monday and Tuesday will
be devoted to the usual class exer-
cises, receptions and entertainments
incident to the week and on Wednes-
day evening the graduating exer-
cises will be held with G. Raymond C
Walker Of Billings as the orator. The
class of 1927 is composed of Bertha
Wilson, Toivo Homi, Lucy Matthews
Wilfred NORM, Rayno Pentilla and
Oscar Pentilla.
The Carbon County news. [volume] (Red Lodge, Mont.) 1924-1931, 1927-05-12

Silver and cerise are the class col
ors and "To the stars through diff
culties" is the class motto. The class
officers are: President, Bertha Will
son; vice president, Toivo Homi; secre-
tary-treasurer, Wilfed NORM.
The members of the class have an
nouned their immediate plans for the
future as follows: Bertha Wilson plans
to enter college in September. Lucy
Matthews will take nurses training
course at Billings. Rayno and Oscar
Penttila, Wilfred MORN and Toivo
Homi plan to enter the state college at
Bozeman in September.
There is splendid school spirit at
Roberts and in it's vicinity and their
schools have long been noted for their
efficiency. The board of education is
composed Of such progressive citizens
as T. A. Hunter, John Monahan and
M. S. Wentworth who see to it that
only efficient and able teachers are
employed. Prof. Mark M. Stanley is
serving his third year as superintend-
ent and he is assisted in the high
school by Marion Bates and Walter
Brauer. The grade teachers there this
year are James Pogue and Misses
Margie Clark, Ethyl Crawmer and Isel
Holley.
Prof. Stanley has decided not to
stay another year as he will attend
the University of Southern California
and obtain his masters degree. Miss
Crawmer has resigned also and it is
possible that but three or four of the
present teaching force will remain
another year.
At present there are 80 high school
pupils there and an enrolment OF lao
in the grades.
Roberts may we'll be proud OF its
schools, its superintendent and his
assistants, Of its loyal patrons, its
progressive school board and It's stu
dious, energetic pupils. Their efforts
a incorporation have tended TO make
the Roberts schools in every way
commensurate with the wealth, intel
ligence and progressive spirit OF its
citizenship.

DISINFECTION

The diminishing prevalence and Sc
verify of infectious diseases is, in
part at least, due to modern methods
of disinfeetion. Sanitary science and
the progressive decrease in virulence
of the bacteria constitute part of the
left half of the equation.
Diseases Requiring Distinction
Fumigation after scarlet fever,
diphtheria and measles is no longer
considered necessary. Systematic
fumigation with strong formaldehyd
should, however, be carried out fol-
lowing tuberculosis, smallpox, tetanus
and erysipelas.
AS for the first three diseases it is
now the general view among sani-
tarians that the organisms respon-
sible for them die shortly after their
removal from the body inasmuch as
conditions outside it are unfavorable.
Another theory that has been ex-
ploded is that the scales carried the
disease because they were supposed
to contain the infective organisms.
More recent research has disclosed
that the scales can convey the disease
only by themselves becoming con-
taminated with secretion from the pa
tient.
Disinfection During the Disease
= It is assumed that the room occu-
pied by the patient has been stripped
of all unnecessary articles, such as
curtains, drapes, furniture, books.
Such articles as paper, cloths, and
food remnants are best disposed of
by burning. Dishes, clothing, and
excretions should be immersed in a
five per cent solution of carbolic acid
for one hour before they are remov-
ed from the room. Sputum can be de-
posted in paper cups and burned.
Nasal and other secretions are best
received in paper or pieces of cloth
and burned
The best way to dispose of excreta
is by placing them in suitable re-
ceptacle, covering with hot water,
then adding quicklime. The shaking
raises the temperature to point that
is destructive to most bacteria.
Bedding and clothing that is soiled
should be soaked in boiling water for
five minutes or in per cent carbol-
ic acid before sending to the laundry.
Mattresses that have become infected
can only be disinfected by steam I'M
der pressure. When this is not avail
able they must be burned.
Such articles as books, toys, leath-
er goods, furs, and so on, should be
exposed to dry heat for one hour at
a temperature of 24S degrees F. How
ever, if they are not too valuable the
most sensible procedure is to burn
them.
Terminal Distinction
The best disinfectants are sunlight
and fresh air, and regardless how
anything has been disinfected it
should thereafter be exposed to sun
light for a day or two.
All bed linen and washable clothing
should be boiled. Other clothing should

Reply
| take it you are middle-aged. If
50, you should not weigh more than
between 1872 and 1873 pounds if you
are between forty and fifty-five years
of age. In other words you are at
least seventy pounds overweight.
You are entirely correct in saying
that you cannot go on like this and
remain healthy. You weigh 40 per
cent more than you should which
means that every organ has 40 per
cent more work to do, taking care of
this extra load, than it was designed
to perform. AS consequence they
must inevitably wear out much sooner.
What to do? That you can bring

Wash and cut rhubarb into one-half
inch pieces. Place in a baking dish
and sprinkle with l cup of brown SUI
gar and one-half cup of raisins. Place
in oven and bake for about 45 minutes.
This filling can be used for double
crust pie and the same proportions
will hold good.
Rhubarb, or pie plant, was probab-
ly used by our pioneer grandmothers
to appease our pioneer grandfathers
pie appetites, in lieu of other pie fill
ling materials. Anyhow there's many
CT us still old fashioned enough to
enjoy pie-plant better than almost
any other variety and to claim it as

meringue made of the two egg
whites left from filling, which are
beaten until stiff and 4 tbsp. sugar
added. Place pie in moderate oven to
brown and dry meringue.
Tive thrifty housewife has learned
that rhubarb combines we'll with var
led fruits and berries, taking on their
flavor and extending the more expen-
sive fruit or berry. With strawberries
and apples, with blackberries, with
plums, rhubarb will combine as a fill
Ter adding to the flavor and increas-
ing the amount of butter or conserve
or sauce which is made. If your fam
lily enjoys something different, re-
freshing and novel combinations,
am sure they will like this pie.

Notice where Coach Stagg of Chi

American football team for a million
dollars. All of which may be. true,
but I would hate to have any one
offer him that much money.
Stagg is perfectly correct in. saying
that no one man can pick an all
American. AS a matter. Of fact,
Walter Camp had built up a system
whereby he had assistance from at
least a score of the leading grid
experts scattered all over the country.
I happen to know a prominent
western sports writer whom Camp
depended on for the selection OF any
Big Ten players, peiieved to be up
to all-American standards.
While there probably never will
be another football selection that will
have quite the standing of the men
named by Walter Camp, the public
likes to peruse such copy and the
picking of all-America football teams
has become national institution.
