Bia Ranches in Texas.

:. q
I. JeF NV. II. H. Murray, in Boston Herald.l
Men talk carelessly about acres and
money 1t is difficult to realize to the
mind large sums of money. Commodore
Vanderbilt once told me that he could
never realize how much $40, 900
amounted to. The same is true of large
tracts of land. Men talk of 10000, 40
900 and $4,000 acres without any
realization of the extent of such an
acreage. ] visited the other day ranch
of 10000 acres. I intended to make a
thorough survey of it-that is to ride
around it and ride across it. I made my
survey, but when / learned that the
fence which inclosed it was over seventy
miles in length, concluded I would in
spect it by sections. I did considerable
riding in two days, nevertheless, but I
didn't ride around it. On the ranch
there were 1,50O acres all under the
plough, one bit of land nearly as level
as floor, parallelogram in shape, and
the furrow which the pillow cut in travel
ing from one end to the other was three
miles in straight line. It is only after
one has visited such an estate and de-
voted days in riding over it that he
realizes what 20, 900 acres of land is.

The Use of Spices.
lFrom Food and Health.J

nHar I'm
4. Spices make up the aesthetics of eat
qusite products of nature, for they con-
tain the condensed aroma of essential
oils, produced by the intense rays of the
SUN. Almost all spices grow on islands,
that is the East India islands, NADIA
gascar, the Mauritius, the Bandu islands,
the Malincas, Sumatra, Java, Ceylon,
Japan, and the, West India islands; the
coasts of tropical countries are also pro-
ductive Of spices. q N@-' e"
Spices have ve1 y peculiar effect upon
the human system; If taken wisely and
in moderation, they certainly promote a
flow of saliva, of the gastric juice, and
having exerted pleasant action upon
the nerves of the tongue and palate, they
communicate certain warmth to the
blood and stimulate the system bene-
ficially.
The peculiar source of the aroma is
not always in the same part of the plant,
but may be contained in the fruit, the
leaves, the bark or the root, according
to where the treasure has been de-
posted. So
OF fruits, none is more useful than the
pepper, grown in East India and Cey-
Ion, and throughout the east When
the berry of this shrub is ground with
it's dork cuticle it makes the black pep
per, when it is ground without it, it
forms white pepper. Pepper is a most
useful condiment, if used sparingly, and
enhances the natural aroma of many
foods. It is preventive of indigestion,
stimulating the digestive organs.
Allspice is the mild West India or
Jamaica pepper, also called pimento.
and shrubs, and exceedingly grateful 10
the palate, in fact of so exquisite and
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1881-05-25

mild flavor that it suits well with fari-
naceOus substances.
Mace is the cuticle of nutmeg, and with
some people greater favorite still, It
suits well for delicate stews.
The Glove is the fower-bud of a tree
and becomes of dark hue, when it has
been dried In the sun. s5G as as.au.
Mustard is seed of plant which
grows In temperate and tropical climates.
Its pungency is so great that when
ground fine it has to be mixed with starch
to moderate it. Mustard is very use
full and healthy condiment.
Vanilla, the fruit of vanilla plant,
indigenous to Mexico, Brazil, Peru, etc..
and cultivated in the West Indies.
Gathered before ripe, dried in the shade,
and stepped in the oil of the Cashew nut.
This spice is the most aromatic of all
spices, and of exquisite flavor as an es-
sence.
VI the barks, cinnamon is esteemed
most; 1t is a very valuable assistant to
digestion and can safely be given to chill
dren now and then. The young shoots
of the tree are used for the pipes, and
when dried are ground into powder.
Of roots or bulbs, ginger is the most
useful, either as preserve or used whole
in dry state, or also ground into a
powder. Both with ginger and CHINA
mon better results are obtained by the
blending of various grades than by put
ting it up perfectly pure.
Curry powder is the combination of
many spices, and has come to us from
the east. Unfortunately our clumsy
ways often spoil the mixture by not pre-
serving the delicacy of combination
which alone can produce the true flavor
it ought to possess. Curry is far more
useful in food economy than we under
stand as yet, and deserves our best at
