POTATO FLAKES MAKE
 HIT IN EASTERN MARKET

Potato flakes. a new dehydrat- ed product used in making mash ed potatoes, sold we'll in a mar ket test in a medium-sized city, and repeat purchases were suffi- cient to indicate that homemak- CTS like them, the U. s. Depart ment of Agriculture reports.
 The flakes were developed by the Departments Eastern Utiliz- ation Research Branch, Agricu1- tural Research Service. Potato flakes were offered for sale in fl supermarkets. Store records were audited in 20 of the stores to measure sales of potato flakes and competing products. Total sales during the five weeks were 854 cases of potato flakes, each case containing 24 four-serving boxes. This was virtually the en- tire supply available for the mar keting test. 1t was found that six of each 10 initial buyers made repeat purchases, despite the short period of the entire study; and nine of each 10 said they would buy again if the product continued available.

The chicken house pictured above is an example of how the farmer can house a flock econ- omically and with minimum of work. This type of building will house D to B birds. porch which gives birds access to sunlight and increases the feos space
 An automatic water fountain on the porch will eliminate moisture in the building proper.
 Inside. big feeder can be placed along the window side. and a dropping pit under the roosts on the opposite side. Nests can be suspended on the wall at the rear of the building
 This type housing keeps the flock off the ground and protects them from parasites and predators.
 A building of this type has a capacity of between 25 and B birds, which should be sufficient for small family. It could house 100 broilers.

eventual paving.
 Costs of the paving will be borne by the property owner and the city, with the property own CT paying two-thirds of the cost, and the city one-third. The pro- perty owner will have his costs spread out over period Of many years so that there will be no great outlay of money for paving only along his property.
 It was pointed out that the entire city could not be paved all a one time. The logical way to do it is to pave those streets that Ire most heavily used, city offi- cia1s said.
 Mayor Wilson said he felt that right now there are three things of importance: Do the city resi- dents want paving2 If so, we must seek bonding company who will buy the city bonds, and should the bond proposal money be increased for additional paw ing? These are things that the Mayor said he felt must be deter mined very soon.
 The Valley Chamber of Con- merce is on record favoring a public forum at which city off ciaIs would be in attendance to explain the entire proposal and answer any and all questions per- taining to the paving proposal. The Palmer Kiwanis Club has offered to assist in any way they can.
 In discussing the paving pro- gram Mayor Wilson said that it is fast approaching the time when the city will have to have an overall plan There will soon be day when we plan a project and the engineer is going to ask to see our overall plan. While in Juneau recently Mayor Wilson obtained information on funds available for planning studies.
 One Council member said that he had been asked by resident living away from the business section, Why should I pay to, , have the street paved downtown, I'm not going to benefit from it. The Council member said that this seems to be the greatest mis- understanding among the pro- perty owners that oppose paving. He again pointed out that proper l ty owners will be assessed for paving ONLY after they have formed an Improvement District requested the paving along. their property-and received ap- proval of their request from the City and the work completed. Then they will have many years in which to spread out their share of the costs of paving.
 Another question answered at the meeting was why personal property owners are allowed to vote in the bond elections, as well as real property owners. This was explained that in as much as the city will be paying one-third of the costs that even the personal property owners will be paying for share Of all paw ing done in the city, and there fore are eligible to vote. Part of the increased tax rate this year has been designated for street work. This was announced sev- eral months ago when the new tax rate was set All property owners, real and personal, pay this same tax rate.
 As the paving proposition goes along items will appear in The frontiersman in an effort to an swer all questions pertaining to the proposal. Anyone wishing to use the LETTERS TO THE ED IIOR column of this paper is invited to do so to express brief opinions on the proposal.
 All city residents are also re. minded that all City Council meetings are open to the public. l

have been an engaging group.
Indeed they were, sufficiently to
inspire Kyle Crichton to write
q play about them.
The result of his effort is a
series of family portraits. more
animated by far than most such,
but hardly enough to stir the
enthusias SIN Of comparative
strangers. The nom Biddle, with
all the good will in the world
toward happy millionaires, is
left only to conclude that the
Biddles life was more fun for
them than for him.
This is a selfish way Of looking
at the folkways Of Philadelphia
aristocracy. 1t remains neverthe-
less the peril of the playwright
who goes for period family
portraiture even with the most
inviting subjects.
The Biddles were inviting, no
doubt about that, with fathers
pet alligators. the gym in which
he taught even his daughter to
box, his bristling Republicanism,
his proud provincialism and his
democratic ways. His life clear

1t was a time Of trouble in
Europe and the calm Of the
Biddle household was being
ruffied also. The boys, Tony and
Livingston were no particular
problems. They were like their
mother, lively but reasonably
serene. Cordelia. the daughter,
was the chip OF the old block,
stormy, volatile. and possessed
OF the best left hook in Phila-
delphia feminine circles.
She was at that age, however,

WINGED Of this when stuffy young
Angler Duke, the tobacco heir,
comes into the family circle only
to discover it is more like q
prize ring.
This is an odd kind Of triangle,
two rough. fun-loving Biddles
and one dainty Duke, and It's
potential Of comedy would seem
to be high. 1t does have its mo-
ments, one Of these q second act
setto when the boxing Biddles
are subdued en- masse by young
Anglers jiu jitsu skill. Another
also in the second and sole lively
act Of the play, is q headon clash
between the Biddle and Duke
folkways.
The contestants in this duel
are Father Biddle and Mother
Duke. the latter q fiery South
erner with an adder's tongue
and some whitening notions Of
Philadelphia provincialism.
Apart from these reasonably
arresting flashes Of distinction

back upon and into the rut Of
family comedy.

Guthrie Nice lintic has directed
1.-THE Happiest Millionaire" with
q veterans eye to its pitfalls. It
comes as no surprise, to him. but
rather as challenge, that there
is a lot Of thin material in this
sort Of thing that demands
bolstering. He has sought the
right balance between the little
ways Of the Biddles and the big
problems Of keeping Father in
line and getting Cordelia hap
PLY married.
The play, unfortunately, up
sets this reasonable design on
the directors part.

It has substantially the same
effect upon the performers, Of
course. With the material avail
able to him, Mr.. Pidgeon is hard
put TO suggest the tempeStuous
man Of mood and action which
the hero Of the play historically
is known to be.
Matching the ruggedness Of
his try is Diana van der Wis go
at the portrait of pretty, firm
minded Cordelia. a girl ready to
devour life but not quite sure
where to start. George Grizzard,
formerly of Arena Stage, is the

able to save the role from its
