For Catering to Conflicting Tastes ths
Various Recommendations Given
Herewith Will Be Found of
the Utmost Value.
With a family divided in Its salad
likes and, dislikes the serving of two
or three accessories with all plain
green salads ls an easy way to sat-
isfy conflicting taste's. In the list of
these accessories may be classed
onions, chives, cabbage, sweet green
peppers, pimentos, cheese, fruits and
nuts of various kinds.
A relish dish is a convenient recep-
tacle for these salad additions. Into
one subdivision put celery clipped in
julienne shaped lengthy into another
thin shavings of raw onion and into
a third long slivers of sweet green
pepper. By passing these at the
same time with the plain greeh salad,
each person at table 1b at liberty to
follow his individual taste. A vegeta-
ble or a fruit salad can be made a
matter of personal choice simply by
serving sections of grapefruit or or-
ange in one subdivision of a relish
dish and quartered tomatoes or shred-
ded cabbage in another.
Incidentally this feature can be
made a decidedly ornamental part of
the table service aiid add greatly to
the attractiveness of the salad course.
A circular or oblong dish having sev-
eral sections can be decoratlvely ar-
ranged by choosing salad accessories
of contrasting color. Tiny balls of
cream cheese rolled in minced pars-
ley will give a good touch, of color in
one subdivision, with sliced hard
boiled egg in another, wedges Of fresh
or canned pineapple in a third and
strips of brilliant • pimento in a
fourth. The list of decorative color
oombinatlons is almost ad varied as
the materials.
Where the taste of the household is
Ji.vided as to salad dressing, It Is lit-
le more trouble to provide both
'•Yench and mayonnaise dressing,
lave the French dressing well mixed
,u a pretty cruet and the mayonnaise
in a glass bowl about the size of a
Inger bowl. These may be placed on
i tray and passed after the salad.
Many boiled cream and egg dressings
ire now in favor for salads, and any
one of these may ■ be served Instead
>f the richer mayonnaise.
In the matter of expense this sug-
?estlon for salad serving, if wisely
carried out. will be found an actual
economy. Small portions of celery,
a single green pepper or left-overs of
■old cauliflower or asparagus may be.
utilized In this form. Once the hofne
laterer begius to practice with salad
accessories she will be surprised at
ihe wide range of possibilities before
her at small expense and little trou-
ble.

Stllwater School Organizes Content
GlviOf Rewards for the Best
Specimens of
Swine.
The A. & M. college of Oklahoma
during the present year has tried to
create" additional interest in hog pro-
duction by arranging for hog raising
contests-and prizes for members of
the boys' and girls' clubs who would
undertake this work. The need for
such work is apparent when one con-
siders that the present hog production
of Oklahoma is far below what it
should be.
According to the last quarterly re-
port of. the Oklahoma state board of
agrictalture'fhe total number of swine
in Oklahoma for 1909 was 851,363 and
I heir total value $4,502,648; while for
1910 the number of swine was 970,288
and their value $5,050,028. This shows
an increase iii number for 1910 of
118,925 and In value of $547,380. The
counties'leading in hog production for
1910 are a sfollow's: Custer, 35,767;
Comanche. /33,943; Caddo, 32.740;
Kay, ot/,321; Stephens, 27,688; Grant,
tillman, 25,746; Garfield,
25,014; dewey, 24,182; Washita,
23.302.
To enooflVage the boys to take up
the work of hog raising the Oklahoma
A: & M. college during the present
year arranged both county and state-
wide -contests. In the county club
contests the college offered for the
best fat hog. any breed, not over eight
inohths^old, raised and fitted by the
contestant, sre first prize a free trip
with all expenses paid, to the short
course at one of the district agricul-
tural schools, and second prize, to the
dtstric* agricultural school short
course, with all expenses paid except
traveling expenses.

erted to niise and feed a litter of

Great Interest Shown Wherever th
Rock Island's Special Made
Stops.
To encourage the farmers of Okla-
homa to raise more kaflr and still
more kaflr, Che Rock Island system
operated a "Kafir Special" train over
its lines commencing Monday, Novem-
ber 25, experts in the culture of kafir
corn having been secured to lecture at
practically all points along the Rock
Island lines in Oklahoma.
One county in Kansas has grown
enormously rich since a considerable
part of the acreage of that county has
b6en planted to kaflr, the crop which
matures regardless of climatic condi-
tions, and railroad companies, bankers
and other interests have combined to
stimulate the raising of the crop in
Oklahoma. ,
Just how many million bushels of
this marvelous grain have been pro-
duced in Oklahoma this year is not
known at this time, and will not be
known until the crop reports aie re-
ceived at the close of the year. Bm
it is known that livestock worth many
millions will be fattened for market
during the winter on kaflr which now
is an insurance crop on the farm of
every progressive farmer of thia state.
The special train which the Rock
Island system conducted over the state
was in charge of H. M. Cottrell, agri-
cultural commissioner of that railroad,
and he was assisted by John Fields,
W. D. Bentley, George L. Bishop and
P. A. Mitchell, all of Oklahoma, who
:tre versed in the raising of kafir, and
who will urge the farmers to increase
their acreage.
Others in the party were: T. C.
Scroggs of the Oklahoma National
Stockyards; W. B. Harrison, Secretary
of the Oklahoma Bankers' association;
J. C. McClelland, member of the state
banking board.
Stops of forty-five minutes were
made except where evening meetings
were held. Comfortably heated cars
served as speaking places and there

asked Tipton Bud, who went t'
consult him:
Do yon own any real estate ?
Are your muscles sore after
diggin' a cellar?
Are you hungry before break-
fast?
Does eatin' a Kierfer pear give
you a warped view o' life?
During the heated summer
months do you hesitate when con-
fronted with some arduous task?
Are you sullen and melancholy
after you've paid for a one-rib
roast?
Do you notice a heaviness o' th'
eye-lids when you try to watch a
ten-thirty film?
Do you awaken with a start
when a neighborin' pianner
strikes up after hours?
Do you feel a wanin' inclina-
tion t' fly a kite as the years go
by?
Are you seized with indecision
when you have your choice o' two
kinds o' soup?
Do you ever notice a low, muf-
fled gurgle in th' region o' the
pipes that carry th' air back t'
th' lobes o' th' lungs while
plowin'?
So what could Tipton Bud do?
It was up t' him t' either linger
