tapioca in the bottom Of a small bowl,
and pour oyerit enc quart Of water. Lat

Of good cooking apples, allowing a quar-.
ter Of a pound Of sugar to a pound OF

SALT SULPHUR MUFFISs.- One pint Of
yeast, half a pint Of water, six eggs, one
pound OF butter. These must be worked
together about twelve O'Clock, noon, into
a dough just stiff enough not to stick to
the fingers. Now set it TO rise, and
work the dough well a second time,
allowing it half an hour to rise before
you begin 10 bake the mt IN ns for tea
This recipe, as will be observed, is
meant for a large establishment, but the
proportions may easily be reduced to
suit the needs of a small family.
A NICE BOILED PUDDING Eight
eggs, n quart Of milk, one pint of
-four, add salt to the taste, say a light
t%easpoonful. Beat the eggs very light,
the yolks and whites separately; the
yolks should be as thick as batter; add
to them alternately the -four and milk,
and very gradually, beating hard all the
time. Then stir in the whites, which
must be beaten very light previously,
for it will spoil the pudding to beat the
batter after the whites Of eggs are in
Wet your pudding cloth with scalding
water, wiring it dry, -four the inside, and
pour in the batter. 1t requires one hour
for boiling, and if properly made, is a
very delicate, light pudding. Serve
with any good sauce.
To RoAtT TURKEY Make a stuHing
of bread-crumbs, pepper, salt, and a
little piece OF butter; mix it lightly with
an egg. Stuff the craw. Split it, and
lay it down a good distance from the fire,
which should be clear and brisk. Dust
it with -four, and haste it with cold lard
several times. When done, serve it
with its " gravy. Be sure to skim the
oil from the top of the gravy before
serving it in the boat proper for its ap.
pearance at table. II it be OF a middle
size, that is to say, W or eight pounds
in weight, an hour and q quarter should
be allowed for roasting. The same direc.
tons answe for baking in a stove, only
the process is slower, and will require
from two to three hours, according to
the tenderness of the flesh. If by any
accident q turkey has been allowed to
get stale or in the least tainted, wash it
thoroughly in weak vinegar and water,
in which a tablespoonful of bicarbonate
of soda has been dissolved, 1t will re-
move all unpleasant taste and odor, and
render the flesh more tender. - arper's

n hOf0 10 EufmtTh' sons
Farmers sons are quite apt to suppose
that they can only attain to any coveted
position in life through an avenue of
some trade or profession, They look
about and find the wealthy men nearly
all belonging to these classes. They do
not stop to consider that only the wealthy
ones come to view; that for every one of
those who has acquired wealth or dis.
tinction ninety-nine others have failed
and disappeared, or have W risen to
notice at all. They act IN the belief that
they are the only persons that can be
called into public life, ignoring the fact
that it is the training they get that con-
stitutes the difference rather than the
calling. A farmer of equal learning and
culture with the lawyer would, we be-
lieve, find himself in just as good re-
quest, with perhaps mony chances in his
favor. If the farmer allows the profess
sional man to m%onopolize all the adj
vantages at the start, he must expect to
find himself at a disadvantage all the
way through.
Profitable PotatOe Culture.
Report comes from North Yorkshire
OF striking case of profitable potato
growing on land highly fertilized,-
Twelve acres, too poor for a crop OF
turnips, received each 10 cart loads of
fam yard manure, 7 cwt. superphos-
phate, 2 cwt. kault and Is cwt. wooden
refuse. The seed Of the Champion va
riety was placed 16 inches apart in rows
four feet distant, ridges as large as pos
sible we're made during the progress Of
cultivation for the tubers to grow in,
they took possession of every particle of
soil that had been loosened in planting
or earthing up, and the entire surface
was soon covered. Il was curious
enough says q correspondent of the
English Gardeners Chronicle, fo go
and see the crop plowed out, and such a
crop it was I never saw in any field be-
fore, a fine even lot, not too large, and
very few small potatoes among them.'-
The result was about ten tons per acre,
worth 1913 each. or cay 81, 600 for the
whole, of which fully one.third was clear
profit. Where can farmers find a better
friend than the land they cultivate, if
they treat it literally and ~fairlyP'
