Hardest Buds Affected,
Tests Show.

Times Special
VINCENNES, Ind, Feb. 14.-Knox
County peach orchardiSts, faced
with crop loss exceeding S1,000,000,
learned today that even the hardest
peach buds are succumbing to recent
frigid temperatures.
DR.. Leslie Pierce, pathologist at
the Department of Agriculture ex-
detrimental orchards near here, re-
ported that examination of 500 tree
buds showed all were dead. He
stated that alberta and Chinese
Cling varieties, two of the hardest,
also are affected.
He believes that only trees in

COOKING HINTS
SHOW WAY TO
L|GHTEN WORK
Use of SeasonabIe Foods
Suggested as Path
to Economy.
BY MARY z. DAGUE
NEA Service Writer

One of the crimes of modern
times is the stuff that Is served
shese days in certain homes under
re ,Gme Of food. The dreadful
things that are done to good ma
terials. in spite Of all the help that
science gives, are legion and should
be avenged somehow.
say, as I've always said, that
anybody with intelligence who
wants TO cook well, can do it.
There are tricks in all trades, and
If you are going to cook, you must
learn them.
Use Of seasonable foods is one of
the surest and easiest means of
economy in meal planning. Al
though the markets offer all varie-
ty of produce throughout the year,
the cost varies at different seasons
Long-distance shipping, involving
refrigeration or applied heat, nat
urally costs money and increases
the price of foods. While these
items are desirable from the stand
point OF good nutrition and the
variety they add to the menu,
cheaper fruits and vegetables must
sometimes be substituted for econ
Dmy.
Combining Two Days Work
Extra cooking and baking done
one day makes It possible to do less
the following day. This is an econ
omy of both time and fuel. For in
stance, it takes comparatively little
more heat to cook enough potatoes
not only for MASKING for the imme-
date meal, but for Dreaming for
the next day.
It's decided saving of time to
make enough salad dressing to last
Tor several meals. A roast large
enough to serve hot one day, slice
cold the next and finally make
into hash or stew, effects a. saving
of money, time and fuel.
One-dish main courses mean a
very definite economy in dish
washing. The old-fashioned boiled
dinner, casserole of meat and vege-
tables and meat and vegetable pies
are examples Of nourishing one
piece dishes that require little
watching during cooking and leave
a minimum of serving dishes and
cooking utensils to be cleared up
after the meal.
Meat and macaroni pudding is ali
excellent one-piece dish. Serve it
with a salad of French endive and
kumQuats stuffed with cream
cheese.
Meat and Macaroni Pudding
Three cups cooked macaroni, III
cups finely chopped lean veal, 6.
mushrooms Optional but good, 2
cups canned tomatoes rubbed
through sieve, 2 tablespoons
butter or other fat, l teaspoon salt,
Is teaspoon pepper, 2 hard-cooked
eggs (optionaD.
Melt butter and add mushrooms
cut in small pieces and veal. Cook

salt and pepper, sifted tomatoes

second of the trails which he
blazed, known as the new Good
night trail, ran from Fort Sum-
ner in New Mexico to Granada,
Colo, and several years later he
laid off his third-from the IA
ranch to Dodge City, Kan. 1t
was $50 miles in length and
known as the Palo Duro-Dodge
City trail.
Almost as romantic as the
story of his trail-blazing is the
story of'his association with the
Irishman, John George Adair,
in the development of the IA
nous IA ranch, the first in the
Texas Panhandle. During his
eleven years on this ranch he
handled more than 300,0 900 cattle,
with total loss during the time
of only 1000 head, and the prop
erty paid an annual profit of
rs per cent on the capital in
vested.
He died lin 1929 at the age of
ninety-three, still active, vigor-
Gus and dynamic in both brain
and body. His bow-legged,
gray-headed IA cowboys low
cred his massive casket into the
grave, and with tears streaming
down their leathery, wind-carved
faces, shoveled in the dirt that
covered him up. And there In
the graveyard at Goodnight,
Texas, came to rest at last this
dominant, driving, restless plains
man. More appropriately, he
should lie at the edge of the Palo
Duro canyon, which, splashed
with the enduring colors of ages,
verdant with grass that will
never be plowed, carves out of
the staked plains an everlasting
memorial to the pioneering spirit

as the greatest scientific breeder
of range cattle in the world.
Even if Goodnight had not
achieved renown as a cowman,
his career as a trail-blazer
would have been enough to give
him enduring fame. In reality,
that career started in 1845-the
year Texas became state
when his mother and stepfather,
his older brother and two sis
tiers, left Illinois and started for
Texas in two covered wagons.
In Texas the boy thrived amid
the hardships of pioneer life
helping his elder brother support
the family by working for neigh
boring ranchers, hunting and
fishing for food, bringing up a
captured wild colt on a bottle
and thus getting his first mount.
By the time he was nineteen he
decided that he knew Texas
pretty well and was about ready
to move farther west to newer
country - California. With a
young companion, and an OK
team and a few horses, they
started on the long trek west.
But by the time they had gone
few hundred miles into West
Texas they decided that the
state was large enough for them.
So Goodnight went back to Palo
Pinto county where he ranched
and supported his widowed moth
er. During the Civil war he
served with the Texas Rangers,
fighting mostly Indians, Next
cans and cattle thieves.
After the war, there was no
cattle market. The plains
swarmed with herds, and cattle
could be bought on credit. Good
night saw the necessity of find
ing a western market. So did
some others, but the young
plainsman, then thirty, differed
from the rest in that he deter
mined to find it. There was al
ready one up at Abilene, Kas.,
where many of the cattlemen
took their herds to sell, but
Goodnight saw a greater oppor-
tunity up in New Mexico, Col
orado and Wyoming.
The drawback in the scheme
was that between the Panhandle
and this promising territory lay
a great expanse of desert and
territory inhabited by Comanche
Indians ready to pounce upon in
vaders and drive off the cattle
Without heavy protection, no
herd could get through. So when
Goodnight laid his plan before
some of his neighbors, they saw
only the danger connected with
the venture and declined to have
anything to do with it.
But young Goodnight Iouno
partner. He was Oliver Loving,
one of the most experienced cow
men in Texas at that time. The
story of how these two men
blazed the Goodnight Loving
Trail across West Texas and up
into New Mexico to Fort Sum-
ner, how Oliver Loving lost his
life in the venture and how
Goodnight brought the body Of
his partner back to his native
Texas is one of the epics of
the West. Though Goodnight
was then thirty-one years of age,

Money in the World

1t is estimated that there is
about $11O, 900, 900, 900 in money in
the world. This is based on the
gold reserves of so principal ma
tons, which amount to approx
mately $50, 1000, 100000 There are
variations as to different coun-
tries, but on an average the pa
per and other money is about five
times the gold held. The United
States at present is an exception,
as it has a much higher proper
ton of gold. Some other countries
are below the average.

lshed recently by the Houghton
Mifflin company, and this book
by a native of the range country
of west Texas who is a member
of the department of history at
the University of Texas, not only
is one of the most important
Western biographies of recent
years but it is an inspiring &C
count of an American frontiers
man who was unique among his
kind. In contrast to so many
men of the border breed whose
chief claim to distinction seems
to have been their spectacular
career of destruction, Goodnight
was a constructive force in the
country in which he pioneered.
True, he had occasion now and
then to kill but the men whom he
disposed of-rustlers mostly
were the kind of citizens which
the community could spare
easily enough. On the whole,
what he did almost always
served the best interests of the
region where he lived and at
the same time it advanced his
own interests. But that was a
secondary consideration with
him.
Again in contrast to so many
other men of the frontier, who
were noted for only one thing,
his was an extraordinarily versa
tile and many-sided personality.
Again quoting his biographer:
He was filed with vigorous
ZeSt for life. His Observa-
tiOnS upon nature ranged. with
remarkable freshness, from
the prairie dogs of the PalO
DurO Plains to the buffalo of
the Northwest, from the
grasses of the BraZOs Valley to
the coniferS of the GreenhornS.

prairies of Madison county,
Illinois, was born a little boy
who was destined to become
one of the truly great citizens
of Texas even though, unlike
some of her traditional heroes,
he is but little known outside
the borders of the Lone Star
state. But few of those heroes
had a more interesting career
than did Charles Goodnight.
He rode bareback from Hi
nois to Texas when he was nine
years old. He was hunting with
the Caddo Indians beyond the
frontier at thirteen, launching
into the cattle business at tWen-
ty, guiding Texas Rangers at
twenty-four, blazing cattle trails
two thousand miles in length at
thirty, establishing a ranch three
hundred miles beyond the from
tier at forty, and at forty-five
dominating nearly twenty mil
lion acres of range country IN
the interests of order. At sixty
he was recognized as possibly
the greatest scientific breeder of
range cattle in the West, and at
ninety he was an active interna-
tional authority on the economics
of the range industry.
He always rode beyond the
borderlands, upon ranges of I'M
spoiled grass. He knew the West
of Jim Bridger, Kit Carson, Dick
Wootton, st. Vrain and Lucien
Maxwell. He ranged a country
as vast as Bridger ranged. He
rode with the holiness of Ere
mont, guided by the craft of Car
son. The vast and changing
country over which he moved,
the fertility of a mind that quick
ly grasped the significance of
climate and topography the in
exhaustible energy of his mind
and body, and the long period of
time through which he constant
ly applied himself to the West
ern World, operated to produce
in this man an ample nature sur
passing many of the more IA
NOUS characters of frontier his
tory. Now, hundred years
after his birth, his massive
frame looms strong among the
horsemen of the stored West"

ests miniatured in the agate of
the Rockies and buffalOes and
horses racing upside down
through the mirages of the
Staked Plains. He found time
to turn back from the lead of
two thousand Texas longhOrns
to see doves nests passed over
by thousands of h0ofs, and left
with eggs untouched. He al
lowed a Texas cow that es-
capped from his herd on the
PecOS and back-trailed through
four hundred miles of desert
and wilderness to die of old
age upon the Keechi range she
loved. He cursed the fool who
cut down a lone chittam tree
at the head of Dry Creek, on
the IA ranch, a fine, useful
landmark in a country devoid
of timber. He carried one of
the little SOnoran deer fifty
miles across his saddle in
front of him, to add to his
studies of wild life in the Pan
handle.
1t was these studies which
gave him what fame he had, in
sufficient though it was, outside
the borders of his state. For to
anyone at all familiar with the
history of the West, the name of
Goodnight is inseparably linked
with the name of those great
shaggy creatures which once
roamed the plains by the mil
lions-the buffalo. His interest
in these animals began more
than go years ago, at a time
when they were threatened with
extinction. He roped a little bull
calf, which he named "Old
Sikes," and carried him home
to his ranch for his devoted wife,
Mary Dyer Goodnight, to bring

more buffalo calves and started
