M. Christianson, The plan was adopt- | ed there two years ago and has met) with universal favor. F. L. Goodman, president of Northwestern Trust company the of 'T Chest is the fin- est thing I have ever heard of for financing organizations, Its very | businesslike method of disposing of | this matter appeals to the bi bus-| iness man and the added fact that) it insures efficient administration of | the funds by each organization should lend weight to its efficiency. “The public will have an op tunity to know what is done with funds, owing to a provision whe: the accounts are to be audited y ly by the auditing committee of Community Chest. It seems to that this alone will have the effect of causing greater efficiency and less) spending of money than heretofore.” Additional praise is expressed by| the Grand Forks Herald, which says} that “the Community Chest plan has al advantages over the old: system. One of these is that} it spreads the burden. The Commun- ity Chest makes evident to everyone that social service is an obligation of good citizenship. It multiplies the number of contributors to welfare work from two to 10. times, This means wider opportunities to give and a citizenship that is well aware of and concerned with community prob-| lems. The plan saves money, effort and| annoyance, the Herald goes on to say declaring that the Community Chest means “one campaign, one pled; one week devoted to fund raising. It puts a stop to the endless tag days and drives by social service organi tions, One campaign instead of many helps to cut the cost out of high liv ing.” 49 BIRTHS, 25 DEATHS HERE IN FEBRUARY, 31 Births Were to Bismarck | Parents, Other 18 Live | Elsewhere in State Forty-nine bi saw the light of day in Bismarck during the month of February, while deaths here during the same period totaled only 25, according to records on file in the office of City Auditor M.

Bren- Hilde- ald Seed Specialist at Agricul- tural College Tells Ways of Making Tests Stephen Haider, February 28 siduet Poor germination of wheat or other seeds sometimes is not suspected from the appearance of the grain, according to 0. A. Stevens, seed specialist at the North Dakota Agri- cultural college. Sprouted grains usually can be seen but sometimes the sprout is broken off close and the damaged tip can be detected only by close inspection. Grains some- what swollen usually will grow but may be diseased. Those which are jenek sprouted cannot be expected to grow again. Fortunately samples |thought. to be much sprouted com- monly have three-fourths or more jof the kernels uninjured. Grain ‘|which is dark brown or smells de- cidedly musty is likely unfit for seed. Occasionally a sample shows low germination without obvious reason. Germination tests of the common grains and clovers can be made at home without great difficulty. A - |pair of dinner plates, the upper is-|verted to serve as a cover, a Pan with a tin cover, or any covered will serve as a receptacle. Boxes Braddock. ist dirt, sand or sawdust are often jused but a covered dish with blotting paper, paper towels or canton flan- nel, ullows the seeds to be watched more closely and the results are ob- |tained in a shorter time. A temperature of 65 to 70 degrees is suitable for wheat and clovers. It may rise to 90 for a short time dur- ing the day but should not remain there long. It may fall to 50 or jury. Continuous temperatures of 75 or above are like- ly to produce molds and cause in especially to durum wheat. Ordinary living rooms provide suit- able temperatures and if it becomes too cold at night the dishes may be d with blankets or old coats ould a jar of Yeast. Warmth, moisture and air are necessary for germination. The seeds may be covered with water at first |but not for more than a few hours.

The company was organized Febru- ary 1, 1920, with John A. Hoffman, the present head, in charge. Three departments—pastry, bread and candy—turn out varied articles to supply the increasing demand from over 800 stores in western Da- kota which handle Barker product: In charge of the pastry department is Charles Halverson; George ner heads the bread department and, William Kimberlin the candy de- partment. Many Kinds of Bread Bread of all types is made by this concern, including Blue Ribbon two sizes of Humpty Deny white raisin bread, loaves Home of the Barker Bakery Buns and rolls are many varieties. There house rolls, cinnamon ro! rolls, cottage biscuits, poppy seed rolls and butter rolls, well many varieties of coo ‘ieties of Happines: fruit cakes and a number of other kind: Candy bars in 42 different varie- ties are made by the company, as well as 26 varieties of pail candy. After being mixed, the dough is automatically scaled into the right amount for loaves and then carried through a rounder and an automatic proofer to the moulding machine. The loaves are then placed in pans, the pans are placed in racks and th wheeled into the process cabinet where the temperature is maintained at’ about 90 degrees. In this cabipet the loaves are heated and rise to the proper proportions. Oven Holds 350 Loaves From the process cabinet the tlie are taken to the oven, which holds 350 loaves, and baked for about 28 minutes. The pans are then taken out and the loaves placed on racks to cool, then taken to the automatic wrapping machine, where they are! sealed in hig waxed paper and| are ready for sale. | Two men handle sales on the road, Leo DeRochford and H.
