Only Northern Grown
Alfalfa Seed Is Safe

Now is the time for farmers to
think about the kind of alfalfa
seed they intend to plant next
spring and to remember that only
northern grown seed is safe to plant
in this state, declares Leonard Heg-
nauer, extension agronomist, State
College of Washington.
If seed is bought early there il
always a better choice, while late
"cn1ers may have to take the "leav-
ines," counsels Hegnauer.
Origin of seed is extremely inn
rcrtaDt. No seed grown south of
Idaho is adaptable to Washington
climate. A limited amount of home
crown seed is available and should
prove satisfactory if planted in the
locality where it is produced. In
~ections where winter hardness is
especially important, seed from
Montana, the Dakotas and Canada
should be preferred.
In the irrigated valleys of Wash
i'@t0n. most growers favor the use
# hardy common alfalfa. Grimm
alfalfa is better suited to the other
eootions.
Other qualifications are necessary
besides origin of seed and variety
Alfalfa seed in all cases. must pe
free from weed seeds as we'll as
o~de from other plants. 1t must
h hi@h in termination.
Farmers should be willing to pay
premium for quality seed. The
resulting crop will easily pay for
the difference in cost.
In the 1888 agricultural conser-
walton program it has been recon-
mended that no payments will be
made for planting alfalfa seed 9TH
er than domestic or Canadian
grown

Xmas Seal Sale Brings
Pleasing Responses

The many notes that are en-
closed with the payment of the
Christmas Seals by those who are
able to take only few is evidence
of the widespread interest that is
taken in the fight against tuber-
culosis and in providing means to
carry on the work in Benton coun-
ty, says Mrs. Frank Clark, pub
licity chairman of the annual sale.
More of these letters have been
received than in any previous year.
Many regret that they cannot send
money. Many have returned their
seals with note saying that while
they cannot buy this year they
wish seals sent them next year.
tuberculosis is a disease that is
so close to so many homes that
everyone seems TO be willing to
do his bit to continue the work.
The returns the first two weeks
of the sale have averaged slightly
better than last year. If all will
continue the good work for the
next few weeks the Tuberculosis
League will be able to carry on its
educational program for 1888, says
Mrs Clark.

A BRIGHT YEAR

It is not necessary to wait until the first of the
year to predict increased activity in the Priest
Rapids valley during 1893.
Two projects, the Hartford school building and
the improvements to the power canal at Priest
money and labor. Both will mean much to the de-
velopment of the valley.
With the deepening of the power canal, the rr-
cation district should be assured of production Of
surplus power the year around, bringing in from
$4,000 to $4,000 year more than is now re-
ceived and making possible the steady expansion
of the distribution system.
There are other projects in view for the coming
year which will in all likelihood get underway in
the notso-distant future. All in ALL 1888 appears
to be a very favorable year here.

Fruits, Vegetables And Milk
Are Important HOLIDAY Foods
4 Vienna sausages.

Scald the milk with the onion
in the top of double boiler. Melt
the butter. add the flour and sea-
sonings and gradually stir in the
hot milk from which the onion has
been strained. Add the mashed po-
tato and return to the double boiler
and beat with a rotary beaten 50
that the mixture is perfectly
smooth. Add cross wise slices of
freshly cooked and Drowned saus-
ages or canned Vienna sausages.
Serve very hot. Serves four.

Fruit cake consists of a thick
batter crowded with nuts and fruit,
therefore it is difficult for the heat
to penetrate through the whole
mixture if baked in an ordinary
cake pan. A tube pan allows the
heat to come up and get right to
the center of the cake from the
beginning of the baking.

Washington State Dairy Council

Washington State Dairy Council
No one needs to be reminded of
the fun it is to eat huge holiday
meals and to piece" beween meals
on candy and nuts Everyone is
also familiar with the upset diges-
tive tract and the worn out feeling
which accompany emotional excite
ment and irregular living habits
during the Christmas holidays. The
best and easiest way of keeping
the family health at it's best during
this time is to mix nonsense with
good sense and observe, at least
part of the time, good food and
living habits.
Remember that normally the diet
is built around the protective foods
fruits, vegetables and milk. So at
Christmas keep bowl of delect-
able looking fresh fruit at hand,
fruit that will just ask to be eaten.
Include as many as possible of the
green and yellow vegetables in the
holiday menus. They give an extra
share of minerals and vitanins.
And as for milk, the clever home
maker will find even more oppor-
tunities than usual for getting milk
into the diet during the holidays.
On some evenings a drink of hot
cocoa made with hot milk and the
cocoa paste kept on hand in the
refrigerator, will be refreshing. It
has been shown that warm milk
drink, either plain or with flavor
ing substance, will help to induce
res'5ful sleep. Try it.
During the rush of the Christ
mas season even the most hardy
members of the family will be
pleased when it is announced that
the evening meal will be supper,
not dinner. and will consist of
hearty soup or choWder genec-
GUS serving of fruit salad, crisp
buttered toast and glass of milk.
Potato soup, made with leftover
mashed potatoes and favored with
onion end if desired cross-wiSe
slices of Vienna sausages or of little
pig sausages will prove to be
family favorite.
Potato Scum with Sausage Slices
3 cups milk
slice onion, chopped
? tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
Salt and pepper
cup mashed potatoes

Age improves the flavor of a fruit
cake, as it takes time for the spices,
fruit and nuts to blend together
However, it is not too late to make
a fruit cake for the holidays and
for special occasions later on.

CITY MAKES MONEY

Hoquiam, Washington, has gone into the money making business, though it is not planning to run op- position to Uncle Sam or run counter to the law.
 It is issuing wooden quarters pure ly as a publicity stunt. Some other Pacific coast towns have in the past issued wooden nickles, both for pub Iicity purposes and for economic req sons, but this is the first time that any of the municipalities have issued anything as high as two bits.
 The Hoquiam chamber of com merce has "coined" 170O of these quarters on 3-inch disks of plywood. This wooden money is good in trade at all the Houiam stores and is re- deemable in cash in December.
 It is expected that a large 1ro- portion of these pieces will be kept as souvenirs and be out of circula- tion before they can be redeemad, leaving the chamber a profit for publicity work.
