During the hot summon month 1 rooking booomes a drudgery. Rosido. that thoro aro numorous other job:that seem almost insurmountabl* unless advantage is taken of many good tools and great mechanical aids. Rig jobs, such as having cleaning and washing and ironing, should be sf* id over the week. Then they should be done early in the morning while it is still fairly cool and you are fresh. FTequent raids will be made on tl)* refrigerator besides the normal ittugands made of it so plan for leftopfts. Cook in quantities in the mornings and then store the food in the refrigerator. A quick reheating is about all that will be needed at mealtime. 'With the modern ranges a whole mehl may be put in the oven to cook while you play or rest. This includes vegetables and dessert. If your range Is well insulated you will find your kitchen much cooler. It is a good idea to take your meal to the country occasionally. You don’t have to have a cold meal. You can put your whole dinner into an electric roaster, rook until done, and take the fo<d in the roaster out to
i cool spot on a shaded hilltop. Tt s always a good idea to keep paper dates, napkins, and rups around for urh impromptu meals. It is possible to keep the house ool by pulling the shades down on he sunny side during the hot part f the dnv. Awnings are a great help, oo, and may he renovated in th” pring by a coat of paint.

Two-Ton Tony Lose- To Louis
MK.IITY BEER DISPENSOU PIT I I* <;RK \T It \TTI.E I \ST NIGHT
NEW YORK. June 29 (UP) Tony Galento. as game a guy as ever bled for a lost caus , chewed the bitter fruit of defeat today and passed his plate hack for another helping of the same dish. Still groggy from the trip-hammer punches, barely able to mumble through the blanket of bandages on his face, his torn flesh held together by 23 clamps the little barrel of a man said he wanted to fight Joe Louis again. It was short ann sweet up there under the lights at Yankee Stadium last night, but while it lasted it was something to see. Galento went down ami got up off the floor to belt Louis. Joe went down and got up off the canvas to slug it out with Tony. To hell with waiting for the count of nine! To hell with caution and the ancient rules of boxing! It was left to the head and right to the belly and let the blood spatter where it may. Referee Artie Donovan finally halted it after two minutes and 29 seconds of the fourth round when all 233 pounds of Galento was sinking toward the floor in one red, raw mess of blood. There was no doubt about it Tony was out. Recause if he hadn’t he n his great heart would have commanded him to get up and swing another left hook. Rut the brain was paralyzed by too many jolts to the jaw and muscles anil nerves were beyond command. One more of those awful rights Louis was throwing might have left Tony punch drunk for the rest of his days. USE DAILY RANNER A DYER TISING FIRST For the Greatest Re suits at Smallest Cost.

The 1940 budget will be jolted out of line because congress failed to provide means of financing $225 000,(00 for farm parity payments and $113,000,000 for disposal of surplus farm products.

By Victor Walters Conservation, a common word today, almost unknown but a few years ago. Conservation Clubs have been or ganized all around us. Farmerbusiness men. laborers, are today al active conservaticnists. 4-H Clubs Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts and school children are saying “You’ve got to leave something for us." Indiana has at last become con srrvatioTi conscious. Too late to save some of our most valued specie? of wild life, but in time to save many of our very best types of forest trees wild flowers, song birds, fish, and game animals. Yet how many can define thi word Conservation ? Conservation a; defined by C. R. Gutermuth, directo of the Educational Bureau. Indian' Department of Conservation, is sim ply this: A wise utilisetlon of ou natural resources. Our natural resources have been placed here for the welfare of all of us. When the time comes for the harvesting of them we should all be the reapers. Not forgetting the generations to follow. Years ago our law makers saw the use for protective legislation for ou r wild life. The law prohibiting the rale of quail was enacted in 1881 spearing of fish was declared unlawful in 1871 during the months of March, April. May. November, and December. But the average citizen saw no reed for such laws anil there was no organized enforcement agency. Indiana's warden force was nol started until 1897. Education in our schools and social groups, and the organization of over .800 Conservation Clubs have dome the most to enlighten Hoosierlaml and bring about a united force against the destruction of our rightful heritage.
