O. P. in Bates county, would indicate that Republi-| can leaders have learned well the, lesson taught them in the fall of 1910} by a rebuke from the Supreme Court of the State when an attempt was! made to pervert the initiative and referendum for the purpose of gerry- mandering the senatorial districts of Missouri in the interests of the Re-| publican party. —— eee !

The Commoner, a To Bone a Fish—To remove the bones from either fresh or salt fish, while raw, take the headless fish in the left hand, split down the back; with the right thumb carefully push the meat from the flesh side of the backbone, then gently force the thumb between the backbone and the skin of the fish from head to tail; now gently pull sidewise, and the ribs ad- hearing to the backbone will come out with it. All the remaining bones can be removed by catching them be- tween the thumb and the sharp blade ofa knife. Ifthe fish are salt, they must be freshened before being boned.

Suggestions to Water Consumers If you have a meter all the water passing through it is yours, and you Missouri. | teeman. black and blue—made up in first class manne played such a nice assortment should pay for it. No meter regis- ters more than goes through it. Your service may leak or your meter may ‘not be read correctly. To test the: meter for a leak see that no water is. being drawn, watch the dial marked ‘4, If the pointer moves atall there: isa leak. If you doubt the correct- ness of the meter or the meter reader, take a vessel of known capacity and draw.7 1-2 gallons of water. If the pointer on dial ‘1’? has made one revolution, then it agrees with your measure and is correct. We instruct our meter readers to always call for "someone to see the meter read. If you have no meter put your ear |to the service pipe occasionally when no water is being drawn. If there is. {a leak you can hear it. If the leak or |waste is in your service your con-' tract requires you to call a plumber at once. If the leak or waste is in the service of others or the company’s mains they will appreciate the favor if you will call the Superintendent. It is a misdemeanor to draw water from any service without a written permit from the Water Company or to allow others to use your hydrant without such permit. 18 4t Butler Water Co.

Normally, Missouri is substantially Democratic and of course the major- ity of. her Senatorial districts are Democratic, and for this reason the Republican leaders would prefer the State to blindly stagger along under an organic law, formulated nearly a half century ago, rather than have the constitution revised -up-to-date by ashen stir all well together; put into convention which must, by political law, be composed of a majority of Demucrats. Truly the slogan of the Missouri G. O. P. should be “‘Patriotism for Patronage Only.” County Superintendent Allison Indorsed by Teachers. The record of County Superin- tendent of Schools P. M.

Mix thoroughly, adding flour enough to make a soft dough, let raise again; the second time, make into loaves; let raise the same as bred and bake the same. If the weather is warm, a small pinch of soda will prevent souring. (This recipe has been frequently asked for, and is now supplied by one who has lived much among Cornish people.) A model Indian Pudding, (baked)--One quart of sweet milk, one ounce of butter, four well beaten eggs, teacupful of corn meal, half pound of raisin, one- fourth pound of sugar Scald the milk and stir in the meal while boil- ing hot; let stand until blood-warm, pudding pan and bake an hour and a half, and serve with any desired sauce. A meat sauce goes nice with this. Johnny Cake (with flour)—One quart nice buttermilk or sweet clab- ber level teaspoonfuls of soda, one teaspoonful of sugar, one of salt, two eggs (more, if you have them), one pint of flour, and corn meal enough to make a tolerably thick batter seems about right.
