No matter what the word meal

is good for the most ambitious, pru-
dent or wise to forget schedule and
routine sometimes, and enjoy the
beauty around us, particularly on
days like this clear, warm, still day
of early fall.
You see, this should really be a
piece on housekeeping, picking,
silver cleaning, or any of the other
sundry household jobs that are ever
present, particularly at this season.
Instead it is going to be al urge to
go vagabonding and let the clean

This whole house, Fred, needs to be

"And yet the weather today needs

porches."
"And yet - there are the willow

"Some time today I'll manage, Fred,
To mend that coat, when you can

this. How wise the young Cor may

heed the urge to leave everything
and go walking in the Indian sum-

Those of us in Montana know the
scene. The Rocky mountains with all
their colors in the many hues and
shades from deep red to palest
yellow, from black to the faintest
green and pink. Every color in the
filmy rainbow is there in the solid
quartz.
Pine trees covering the distant
mountain with spots of yellow
quaking aspens remind one of lighted
windows on a dark night. Brilliant
splashes of red, orange and yellow
on the grey hillsides are like a great
oriental rug spread over them.

live is the day we as some

The Lloyd Campben nome-ran and
winter evenings find the Campbell men
and their friends enjoying the pool
table in the basement recreation room.
The small table and stools in the fore

the grandchildren who are verY fre-
quent visitors.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1949-10-15

O~r first stop was at the Lloyd
IN the Waller district.
Their attractive, square two-story
house set in a grove of trees on well
kept grounds is an excellent example
Of a remodeled house. 1t had been
moved from the former town of
Williams a few miles away. The
living, dining and bedroom down.
stairs and the upstairs were the
original house. The kitchen and the
utility area were added.
From the porch across the front
we entered the spacious, comfortable
living which extends the full
width of the house. At one end is a
fireplace thanked by built-m oak
bookcases. The cabinet work in the
quarter-sawed oak sideboard with
loaded glass doors, generous cup
boards and drawers are examples
of the fine workmanship in this
house built a quarter of a century
ago.
U-Shaped Kitchen
The U-shaped kitchen is as modern
as electrical equipment and ma
~terials can make it. The refrigerator,
cupboards and work table on por-
tons of two sides and the stove and
more work tables built counter-wise
into the kitchen form the convenient
working area. The dining area is in
the opposite corner.
The outside back door opens into
a small entry with stairway to the
basement, and up a few steps, are
the utility, bathroom and storage
closets, most convenient for laundry
and for the men to wash up.
One of the best features we have
seen for taking care of muddy shoes
that are very often a problem in the
ranch home has been worked out
by Mrs. Campbell. Opening into the
side of the basement stairway is q
cupboard that has been set into the
unexcavated area under part of the
house. The cupboard has a Slated
floor. Muddy overshoes can be pu-
in the cupboard where they are ou-
of the way and out of sight and the

That package of puffed cerea
that you take for granted. al
it sits upon your pantry shelf
has A most interesting history
that dates back to l90l-Wher
first an atomic explosion" shook
the cereal world.
A distinguished professor Alex
ander P. Anderson. one day sealed
some test tubes in his laboratory
In the tubes were grains of pol
ished rice. The special oven reg
istered $50 degrees F.-just right
for the experiment. The professor
put the tubes in the oven, care
fully counting the time Then
removed them, and quickly
smashed them with a hammer
AS he did so, a miniature ex-
plosion took place-each rice ker-
mel expanding to eight times its
original size.
This experiment was the be-
ginning of the manufacture OF
puffed cereals. After further
work, Professor Anderson inter-
ested a large cereal company in
the process, and by 1904 every
thing was ready for a public shcw-
ing. A battery of special COM
preston chambers, which replaced
the test tubes was set up at the
Worlds Fair in st. Louis. Visi-
tors could watch the guns, as
they were called, shoot Oft the
rice. and then sample the new

Puffed Cereal History

food-which was classed as con-
fectionery."
For more than year the candy
manufacturer bought all the
puffed rice available. Company
representatives realized that
puffed wheat and rice could fill
other needs, and plugged them
for a breakfast food. The process
used to make them today is es-
sentially the same as the original
one-only now the grains are
treated with what is called a
"vitamin rain" which restores
them to their nutritive standard.
When I was a kid we used to
spend rainy afternoons making
and devouring what we called
"Puffed Brittle:
Measure 2 cups of puffed rice
or wheat into a shallow pan, and
heat in a moderate oven for 10
minutes. Combine 2 cups sugar,
l cup dark corn Sirup, a cup of
water and Il teaspoon of salt in
a saucepan, and cook to the soft
ball stage. Then add tablespoon
Of butter and "a teaspoon of soda.
Stir gently. and add the puffed
cereal. mixing only until grains
are coated. Pour evenly onto
large creased tray. AS the candy
cools. raise edges with spatula,
and when firm. turn the entire
slab. Break into pieces when
cold.

MORE ON FURNISHING
APARTMENT.

From M. B. L., Washington
Use paper draperies. Buy cur
tains, dishes, silver, ETC., at the
dime store. One of the leading
decorating magazines recently ran
a series of articles on table set
tings, decorations. etc. using all
dime store material and they were
lovely. It's all in how much
inherent taste you have. But the
thing I want to stress. is-don t
go into debt to furnish the place.
BY this l mean, if you buy on
credit, then buy only one good
piece of furniture at time. Get
it paid for before you buy another.
Make the easiest possible down
payment. For example, if you buy
a table for $100, make the largest
down payment and contract to
pay the balance at the rate of
SO per month over period
of a year or so. But, when
ever, you have a few dollars left
over at the end of the month,
don't spend it on something else.
Apply it toward payment for your
table or such. In this way, you
won't contract to pay more than
you can really afford: you may
possibly finish your payments
sooner and you will keep your
credit standing in the best posi-
BILE shape.
You can. of course, find excellent
bargains in used furniture by
consulting the miscellaneous for
sale columns of The Star. And you
can hint to your family and
friends that you have a new
apartment. and Christmas is COM
ing, and new lamps would be
pretty nice Cor whatever you
might need in the line of ac-
cessories).
