Tacoma where they had been the pre-
ceding three days attending the Grand
Masonic Lodge of the State of Wash
ington. While there they called on
William Van Hoy who is now To-
Gated at Sumner, near Tacoma, and
he told them of recent auto acct
dent in which Mrs. Van Hoy was Sc
verely injured. The Van Hoy family
was returning home from Seattle in
a new REQ car when they were struck
broadside by another car coming onto
the highway from side road. Mrs.
Van hoy's nose was broken and she
was otherwise cut about the head and
face. Although Mr.. Van Hoy and lit
tie Billie were knocked out of she
car by the impact, neither was injured.
The Van Hoy car was a complete
wreck. .Dl
The trip to Tacoma was the frs.
time that Mr.. Codding has been on
the west side of the mountains during
his eighteen years residence in Whit.
Bluffs. While he was impressed with
the beauty of the county over there,
when he could get up high enough to
see over the trees, he said he had
spent too many years in the wide open
spaces TO ever want to live over there.

feeling for us. her sisters across the
sea- as.
"The convention was the finest
ever attended," said Mrs. F. E. Tay-
lor, state chairman Of the Depart

the small towns and on the farms
who have the greatest opportunity for
service. They are the ones who go to
make America the great community
she will become"

SEPARATOR LOSSES

Anyone operating a cream separ-
ator at times will notice that there is
some loss of fat usually noticeable
on the skim milk after settling. How
ever, not all cream losses are to be
detected by the eye as a comparative.
" large fat loss can pass by I'm
detected unless the skim milk is
tested at regular intervals. A loss
of over .02 percent of fat should
be checked. Listed below are NUM-
Der of reasons for poor skimming
which may be helpful to anyone.
/. Excessive vibration, due to
loose discs, improper assembling of
of bowl, worn condition of spindle
and bearings, or out of balance.
2. Underspeed. Crank should be
turned at speed indicated on crank
arm.
3. Loose fitting or damaged cream
screw disc. The upper edge of the
cream screw disc should fit snugiy
around the neck of the tabular shaft,
and be very sure there are small, al
most unnoticeablo s(openings in it
through which a little cream, under
high pressure, may be forced into the
skim milk
a. Bowl too low in frame, which
would cause cream to strike the edge
of the cream cover and throw into the
skim milk cover.
S. Machine not level or securely
fastened to floor.
8. Separator should be washe4
twice daily as the skim around the
inside of the bowl if allowed to ac-
cumulate will cause obstruction and
loss of fat.
