A simple and inexpensive mode of
growing water lilies Is to saw q clean
barrel in half and sink the bottom half
In the lawn In this tub put several
inches of sand and loan and plant the
roots therein Then carefully fiji the tub
with water, and during the season as
fast as the water evaporades pour In
more. On the approach of cold weather
the tub must be protected by a covering
of boards and sufficient coarse material
to keep the water from freezing
Filling q horses rack with hay, Is
some persons do, and permitting con-
slant supply TO remain before the animal
Is one of the most probable means Of
producing disease and most positive IN
rendering animals unfit for fast work
Large supplies Of hay have the effect Of
making the stomach large and weak, the
belly in course Of time becoming pend1-
lous- Not only does the stomach IN
crease In capacity, bat the large mites
tines become enlarged
Copper utensils or brass articles maT
be as thoroughly cleaned and look as
bright by washing them with solution
of salt and vinegar IS by using oxahc
acid. with the advantage of running no
risk of poisoning either children or care
less persons. Use as mnch salt as the
vinegar viii dissolve, and apply with a
wooden rag, rubbing vigorously; then
polish with pulyerized chalk, and the
article viii look like new, with little
labor, as the acid of the vinegar is very
Efficient In removing all stains from
either copper or brass.

teaspoonful of baking powder; hall q
teaspoonful of salt; three eggs; butter

ter Mix and add the beaten yelks and
milk, and last stir In the whites which
have been beaten TO stiff froth- Bake
at once In well-greased waffie-irons. By
using two cups of milk, the mixture Is
right for pancakes If sour milk Is used,
substitute soda for the baking powder.
Sour cream makes delicious wafaes-

Onion Soup--Take three large
