You'll need to overcast the raw edges in that event, or you can- run machine stitching near the edge and then overcast. You may need to rein force armholes with a double row of stitching one-fourth inch apart. Then, if the material trays easily, better overcast the edges, too. You’re likely to find the hems sewed 1005er or they may be sim ply basted. Before you resew the hem, put the garment on and check up on the length. Lengthen or shorten it as needed and be sure Ithe lower edge is the same dis tance from the floor the whole way round. Then rehem it care fully. Using tape to strengthen points that get extra strain will help give the garment longer life. Sew a strip underneath at the ends of plackets to relieve strain. To prevent the strain in the ends of pockets that result in torn corners, she advises stitching tape under neath the top line of the pocket. Then there are the buttonholes. It’s best to rework carelessly-made buttonholes before you wear the garment, and be sure to use firm stitching on loose buttons and S & K Drilling Co. Drilling Water Wells Curtis Court, Rt.

Miss Eleanore Davis, Extension Nutritionist, says you can can chicken meat (in the bone or off— whichever way you choose, but when it comes to the canner,l there’s no alternate choice. The only safe method is to process in a steam pressure canner. Be sure to follow laboratory-tested direc tions for every step of the canning process, because the processing time in the canner is based on foods packed according to these directions. Your county home demonstra tion ' agent or agricultural agent can provide you with the illustrat ed leaflet, “Home Canning of Meat,” which gives full canning directions.

RUPERT Republican Candidate ‘ for Conny Assessor Primaries July 9 P.” MProsser, Washington O N STOVE AT HOME BIG BUSINESS BEGAN FROM A kitchen-stove experiment to nation-wide operations—second place in size for its type of industry throughout the United States - that’s the story of growth attained from a meager start by the Church Grape Juice Company of Ken. newick, Washington. It is another verifi cation here in our home state of a basic maxim of The National Bank of Com merce of Seattle that virtually all large businesses of today were once small. # t t 1! Soon after M. R. Church came to Ken newick from the grape belt of Michigan he began testing with household utensils . the blending of juices from Concord and Worden grapes he cultivated from plants propagated originally in his native state. With a small press about the size of ‘a gallon tin pail, he experimented with this juice and discovered that he had a product of unusual quality which did not require - the addition of sugar to give it a delightful flavor. s s s a: Mr. Church’s business at that time was with'artificial ice and cold storage. By fur-\ ther experimenting in his cold storage plant, he developed a process of juice ex traction by pressing that seemed to be eernmercially feasible. He planted a‘ 35- acre vineyard of Concord grapes. He eu couraged private owners to do likewise and bought their crops for processing in his small plant. ' s -ss s s From this modest beginning the Church Grape Juice Company has expanded to cover 25 states—an important and valued customer of The National Bank of Com merce of Seattle. However, 1?“ Church put in practice his “idea” too ate in life to live to see his small one-press plant grow to its present imposing size; to see the largest Concord grape vineyard in the world adjoining the city limits of Kenne wick; to see the fine product he developed place its producer next to the top in the grape juice industry of the nation. Others are carrying on in an expansion program involving hundreds of thousands of dol lars in modern buildings and machinery 88 well as the planting of thousands of acres of new Concord vineyards. s s: s 1: Such histories of its customers who began small and became large have strengthened the foundation policy of The National Bank of Commerce of Seattle.” -exten'd friendly and constructive consul eration to new and sound business enter. prises regardless of size at the start. 111° quiries from small business are welcomed here.
