THE GRAN Il .
GRANGE NOTES.

SAYS the Patron Of Husbandry: Worthy
Master Darden writes US that he will soon
have his crops laid by when he will resume
Grange work lie will visit Franklin and
adjoining counties next. Worthy Master
Darden follows the plow, and he can sympa-
thzc with the great mass OF farmers who are
robbed of the profits Of their toll by the
merchants and railway corporations, etc, and
uniustIy taxed by laws enacted by lawyer-pol-
itcans i'm the Legislatures. This fact gives a
power to his speeches and efforts in behalf Of
the Order that carries conviction to farmers
wherever ne goes.
WOULD it be expcdient for Pomona
Grange to invite a general attendance OF Ia
irons to it, sessions including those who have
been "dropped?' Il question recently
propounded to the Worthy Past State Master
mt q County Grange. Bro. Ellis thought that
occasionally the County Grange might wisely
hold an open meeting, which should be made
free to all farmers, who might be invited
specially to he present, and that they be asked
directly to take part in the discussion, which
should be on a practical and remunerative
topic, selected at prior meeting Tor that occa-
zion. and that the brothers should make 1t
point to be- well posted on the subject to be
argued.-Grange Bulletin.
FARMERS and farmers families are apt to
say that they have no time to read-too busy
too tired, or too expensive TO buy books.
has IL never occurred 10 tNpse VINO make tItSt
axcu-es that Grange OF any literary taste

WHAT are We doing within the gates Are
we striving 10 make the Grange an honored
success DO we desire 10 promote harmony
Or are we sowing seeds of discord Without
harmony of action no order can prosper. Do
We attend every meeting OF our Grange and no
suffer little hindrances to stand in our way
And while there, do we exert ourselves to make
IT interesting II would soon become monoto-
nous if only the regular order OF business was
attended to. Let Us make them 9 feast OF
reason and How of SOUL The Grange so far
has been an educator. II has brought to light
talents that had long been buried 30 deep that
the plow could not reach them bat they have
been unearthed, frightened, used, and they have
gained other talents. The diamond was there
in the rough. 1t Is no paste diamond, but the

Household Receipts.

STUFFED EGG-PLANT.-Do not peel, bu
cut the eggplant. a fairly large one, in two
and boil until it is soft. Then remove the
eggplant from the fire, and, when cool, with
spoon remove almost all the cooked substance
leaving the rind. Drain this substance thor
oughiv. using some pressure. Take an onion
cutit up fine, and add to it chopped parsley,
salt and pepper. and with piece OF butter
stir them thoroughly. Then add the cooked
inside OF the eggplant, at the end adding the
volks of two eggs and some grated nutmeg
When this is thoroughly cooked introduce il
into the rind Of the eggplant. Take piece
ot string, tie up the halves, and bake thor
oughly.
To Fry EGG PLANTs.-Egg plants should
not be chosen too large, they are inclined
TO be pithy; peel carefully, and cut in slices
one quarter of an inch thick; put the slices
in slightly salted water, and allow to remain
for two hours. Dry perfectly before cooking.
Take two eggs and mix cold in pint of milk.
Have dried bread crumbs powdered crack
nrs. Dip the egg plant in the milk and egg,
and then into the bread or cracker crumbs.
Have in your frying pan a piece of butter,
and when it Is very hot, put in your slices and
cook thoroughly To have fried egg plant
well DONE put the slices when cooked in a
piece OF paper To absorb the grease. l think
ii a great improvement to cook egg plants
with oil instead of butter. | fry squashes in
the same way, only do not put them in salt.
PLE-DUNiPLINGs.-It' most time for 'em,
but any one that eats an apple before it is
ooked, about this time of the year, deserves
o have cholera morbus. Why don't the
society for the prevention of cruelty to child
rem stop the selling of green, unripe apples
Mortality among children is a great deal owing
10 their indulging in unripe fruit. Stew your
apples, make dumplings of them, and the
poison in 'em is killed. Here Is n fair receipt
Tor dumping: You can boil or bake 'em,
but boiling Is better; for your crust, sift a
pound of -four, and rub into that six ounces
of well-mashed butter; when you have worked
it up well, add the yolks of two eggs and a
tablespoonful of cold water Just before you
have done with your paste add a heaping
spoonful OF pulverized sugar; roll it out thin
and put in cool place for an hour; pare six
apples and scoop out the cores put little
bit of cinnamon, and a grating of lemon peel
and pinch OF brown sugar in each of the
apples close the apple up in the paste, and
boil each one in a napkin, or, if you want to
bake them, don't any napkin; mostly
before serving them slice off the top and put
in piece of butter and teaspoonful of
powdered sugar. Apple dumplings, with
Dundee marmalade for sauce, are first chop.
