Dinner-Table Thoughts.
FRENCH LIVING FOR THE POOR.

fRENCH LlNlNG tOR The fOOk
Taking a table dhote after the French
plan, let us strike out what is not necessary
to preserve the idea of the progression Of
dishes The first course is soup. In adj
dition to this are fish and entrees, /. e.,
various sde-dishes. Everything but soup
can be discarded, although it is not very
expensive to use the meat, out of which
the soup is made, as q piece de resistance to
follow the soup, or to serve in some way as
an entree on the following day. Too many
| mothers train their children to attack the
meats the first thing at the table. This is
unhealthy enough for an adult with chill
dren it is far more so. Soup, then, is a
necessity when looked at in the light of a
proper prelude to the heavy parts of the
| dinner. Americans as class make
miserable soups, and the habitual livers at
| hotels are getting more and more to neglect
| them; and with reason, for a dish of it
looks worse than the "black broth" which
students read about in theirSpartan history.
AS a matter of fact, however, when once
understood cooks say that soup is very
cheaply made, and when care is taken nc
dish is more desirable. The common boaaE
lon is very nutritious and if among the
common people the rule was adopted o.
always having this on the table at noon, il
would add much to the pleasure of
humble meal, even if man did not ap
preciate the inspiring fact that he was fol
lowing French menu. All the side-dishes il
the second or heavy course can be drop
ped, but let the relishes be the last to b.
abandoned. The third course is the des
sert, which must be regulated by circum
stances. 1t is better to habitually neglec
dessert than a soup, and it is often bette
not to have any than to put on the tabl
over-rich pastry. But fruits, coffee, an
perhaps ices are both orthodox, Frenc
e and very healthy.

The English dairy farmers get immense
returns from their grass lands by free use
of bone manure. One Cheshire farmer
saws that by this he can feed forty COWS

sufficient to feed only twenty. The Eng

BUTTER-MAKING IN FRANCE.--Butter is
made from very sour cream according to
the French system, and no attention is
paid to its keeping qualities. No salt is
used for home market. The butter is
washed in the churn, and Notwithstanding
the extreme sourness of the cream, has
nearly the same appearance as that made
from sweet cream. The best French butter
is shipped daily to England and the Con.
tinental markets in small quantities, and
consumed usually within three days. 1t is
sent in refrgerating cars. In Paris all
butter is sold by auction at the markets.
Women are mostly the buyers. Three or
four hundred lots are sold every hour.
Sworn officials weigh and register the
butter, and make up the accounts on sale.
The different kinds of butter are named
from the places where they are made, and
classified according to quality. The best
butter is sold at so to Is cents per pound

New METHOD OF IMPROVING Our WORN
OUT LANDs.-This can be effectually done
by sowing Virginia Black peas, turning in
the luxurient foliage produced. Repeat
ing this for time or two, and the lands
will produce wheat, corn or oats; follow up
sand.hills will assume a different color.
Farmers should try this experiment at
once, as it is one of the cheapest ways to
improve their lands.
"I consider the black or cow peas the
best and cheapest thing out to improve
land, sowed 40 bushels last year.

The Royal Agricultural Society of Great
Britain has instructed its executive board or
council TO appoint qualified commissioners
to gather up and publish the statistics of
the corn and meat-raising capabilities of
the chief producing countries, such as the
United States, Canada, Russia and Aus
tralia, with regard to the probable food
supply intended for the British market.
At present there is no need to look into the
Capabilities" of any other countries be-
sides the United States and Russia, both Of
which are competitors for the English
market, and either of which is able to
supply all its demands in full 1t is not
probable that either country will be strong
enough at present to drive the other out of
the field, and consequently the price of
wheat, as we'll in Baltimore as in Odessa,
must be regulated by the extent of the
| British demand and the severity of the
competition of the two countries.

TABLE MANNERS.

When the three radical courses of a
dinner are observed, however meagerly,
the humble man can turn and does in.
stinctively turn to the matter of table
manners, and soon the whole air of a
family will change. 1t might seem trite or
simple to enumerate the points to be OBJ.
served at table. Well-bred people freely,
but rarely discuss. That is, one should do
no. heavy talking. Chartered food" as
the proverb hath it, 'is halfdgested food"
Americans generally wait until all are
served before they begin to eat; Ed, ,'lish
begin at once. The best way is to ia, : a
middle course, unless it is noticeable. BE
careful about putting your knife or the
end of the soup-spoon in your mouth. Dc
not drink tea or coffee with the spoon in
the cup, and do not pass along the plate
handed you by a servant or head of the
table. 1t always makes trouble.
