MISSING MONEY
 E DISCOVERED
 IN MUSEUM HERE

Money stolen here nine years ago, was found last week in the Territorial Museum where it had been secreted by its thief.

 According to Deputy U. s. Mar shal Walter Hellan, the money was stolen in 1899 by James E.

Used Fats Still Needed Badly

The United States Department
of Agriculture continues to urge
housewives to save every avail
able drop of used kitchen fat, and
comes up with few more helpful
suggestions. Among them, the
Department points out that the
family food budget will benefit If
every bit of kitchen fat is reused.
Local meat dealers still pay cash
for every pound turned in to them.
The department also suggests
that homemakers keep two fat
salvage cans close by one
for fats rendered from roasts and
the like, and another for clean
bacon grease that can be used
again as fresh shortening.
Meeting TO be Held in Richland

When beef steak goes to a dollar
a pound in the show case of your
meat market and other cuts of beef
and pork are priced accordingly,
the housewife scratches her head
and begins to wonder how she can
make her dollars feed her family.
Under present conditions, turkey
poultry meats are the cheap
est meat on the market, pound for
pound. On the other hand, if you
are interested in raising some OF
your meat and do not have poul-
try facilities, you might try rabbits.
Tame rabbit meat is delicacy

equal to fryer chicken and is
easily raised.
Rabbits are raised for food and
for fur in all parts of the country.
Their value in supplementing the
family meat supply has not been
too well recognized in the North
western states. The pearly white
meat is highly nutritious and pal
atable and can be served through
out the year. The meat can be
frozen and kept in the food locker
similar to turkey or poultry. Ex-

are good. The latter part of june
was warm and a good flow Of hon.
ey was in progress west of the
Cascades in the Pacific Northwest

Extracting already ha; started in
southern Oregon and yields in
some parts in the Willamette VAL
ley SO far are around so pounds
per colony. West of the Cascades
bees are working white clover,
yellow sweet clover, alfalfa, as
paragus and Eastwood. Colonies
vary considerably in condition, but
generally speaking are strong.
The extraction of the orange hon.
ey crop in California is about
completed, with reports from some
apiaries indicating yields of SO to
so pounds per colony. Conditions
were variable in the inter-moun-
tain states, with flows under way
from yellow sweet clover, but
cool weather was retarding bee ac-
ivity in some areas.
The market for honey improved
slightly during the last half OF
June. Sales of old-crop honey
ranged beteen 8 and Is cents per
pound for the best grades, and z
to IL cents per pound for stronger
flavors in 60-lb.. cans. On June

of SIS million, 700 thousand lbs. OF

Beeswax, the report shows, held

vacavtion Meals:
BY Loretta Cowdsn
Asst Extension Agent

vacavtion Meals:
In summer many housewives
ease up on cooking and serve light
er meals. Lighter meals may be
well enough for adults in the fam
lily who are less active in, hot
weather. But nutritionist re-
mind mothers that children may
need more food because they are
more active during vacation than
when in school. Whatever the
weather. care should be taken to1
insure use Of all the foods they
need for health and growth, ac-
|cording to the Basic Seven Guide.
A copy Of this guide. Is available
for the asking at the Extension
office. It's, easy to read and fol-
start for a child's active day. Along
low.
All earty breakfast makes a good
with their three square meals,
children may need mid-morning
and mid-afternoon snacls such as
sandwiches and milk. fruit, hard
boiled egg, or fruit juice and cook
les to supply extra calories for ac-
tivity. This helps safeguard them
from getting too hungry and tired
before their regular mealtimes.
Just Before Servings
To make the flavor Of canned
citrus juice more like that Of fresh
juice many housewives have learn
ed the simple device Of pouring
the chilled juice back and forth
from one glass to another just be-
fore serving. This puts back into
the juice the air which was re-
moved during the vacuum pack
ing. Beating briefly with q mix
master or egg beater to aerate
juices Is a trick used by Mrs. Lynn
Tinsman, manager Of the Pasco|
school lunches:
"A Hot Weathsr. Reminder On Eggs
During these summer mouths 1t
is especially important to use care
in buying eggs and to store them
properly to prevent having any
shot weather eggs" In the kitchen.
Freshly laid eggs can deteriorate|
more IA ,one day Of hot weather
than In three weeks Of cool moist
storage. Prompt, continuous re-
frieration u the. best way to con-
serve egg quality. So, treat q good
egg right by storing it under pro-
rer Conditions. The rule Is: clean,
covered and cold.
a Few Words on Canning:
Home,nakers who are q little IN
doubt on the '1mow how" Of can
ming tricks should secure q nancy
little booklet called Home Can
ming Of Fruits and Vegetaoie
from the Extension Office. the IN
formation contained in this book
let can prove helpful to botn ex-
perienced and inexperienced nome
makers alike as it contains new
improved timetables for processins
vegetables.

other "national weeks" Tor TINS
and that, Secretary OF As,lcm
ture Charles Brannon has desie-
mated July 10 to "a as Na 1a

He says well planned home PIT

Honey Aplsniy: -
Westerners should have plenty
of honey in the months to come.
Reports indicate that the now OF
honey in western states Is good.
Along with the warm weather the
latter part Of June came good
flow Of honey west Of the Cascades
