tends to cause fermentation in the sirup and
prevents its keeping. When made for inn
mediate use, a small portion of the zest may
be mixed in, but not when intended for long
keeping
A pleasant mixed beverage is made by add
ing to the sirup an equal portion of rasp-
berry sherbet. Five quarts scarlet raspber
ries, two quarts wine vinegar and eight
pounds granulate ted sugar. Gently mash the
berries, nut them into a porcelain-lined ket-
tie, add the vinegar and stir three times
day for a week, keeping the kettle we'll COW
cred meanwhile. Strain through a coarse
flannel cloth. Mix one pound of sugar with
the seed pulp, work it we'll and strain. Put
sill the srup together into the kettle, add the
rest of the sugar, boil and skim till the scum
no longer forms, then bottle while still hot,

drunk like the lemon sherbet.

The best lemons come to us from Florida,
and the next in quality from Palermo, in
Sicily. Choose those having a thin, smooth
skin, large and solid, in preference to thick,
rough-skiuned ones, which are almost sure
to prove spongy and dry. Select from those
that have never been unwrapped, wash them
lightly in cold water, wipe dry, wrap in
Clean soft paper and keep in a cool dry
place. This treatment removes any stale
favor communicated by decaying fruit or
the odor of the box. The best oranges for
this purpose are those from jamaica and
next the Flordas. Buy them, like the
lemons, in their original wrappers wash and
repack in like manner.
The materials and proportions for the
sy rup are as follows: Three pints lemon
juice, one pint orange juice and six pounds
granulated sugar. This will require about
three dozen lemons and half dozen oranges
all of large size. With fine crater rub off
the thin yellow rind of the fruit but none of
the white; the lemons and oranges separately,
OF course. Mix the gratings well with four
times their weight of pulverized white sugar
and put into bottles which keep corked when
not in use. You have thus two excellent,
pure. every-ready 1avorings for cakes, pies,
puddings blanc-manges, ices, and whatever
else you like.
Now pare off the white rind, scraping it
clean down to the pulp Cut the fruit in
half pick out all the seeds, squeeze out the
juice with wooden squeezer, and strain IL
as fine as possible through flannel jelly
bag Measure it, add to each quart OF the
mixed juices three pounds of sugar; stir it
until it is perfectly clear strip, pour into
wide-m0uthed bottles or jars, brimful, and
keep in dark cool place until they are
clear and free from specks; carefully remove
the scum cover tightly, and keep in a cool
cellar or an ice-chest. Thus made the sirup
will retain its freshness for any length of
time. The above recipe should yield about
four quarts, or sufficient for sixty glasses of
very rich sherbet. 1t may be mixed either
with ice-water, as a cooling drink, o: with
hot water as night-cap. Made in the large
way the last trial by the writer was as fol-
lows: One box lemons 300, large and fine,
30 oranges yield, II quarts lemon juice;
yield, quarts orange juice; add As pounds
of sugar; product, 30 quarts sirup. 1t is al
ways welcome and popular at ladies' fairs
especially when served by pretty "Rebecca
at the Well,'' in turban and flowing robes,
with a rockery, ferns and "a neyer-failing
bowl of the sherbet at her side. Ii you de-
sire to give il an Oriental Arabian Nights
flavor, add to each quart teaspoonful of
rose water or orange flower water to your
taste
All this may seem a needless amount of
labor, but it is amply repaid by the superior
yield and quality of the sirup The seeds are
bitter, and if any are crushed in the squeez-
er, or remain a short time in the juice, they

Belgium is the most carefully and elabor-
ately cultivated country in Europe, and the
Belgian farmers raise larger crops per acre in
their small, unfenoed and finely-lned farms
than are raised anywhere else. Farming
there partakes of the nature of gardening;
indeed, it would be called gardening else
where. Wheat is the important crop and
the management of 1t is particular to what
other people would call extreme The
seed is sown in the fall-spread broadcast
and thick over rich and well-prepared plant
beds, similar to those which Missouri tobac-
co raisers prepare for their tobacco seed. The
young wheat comes up thick, rank ana
strong in the fall and remains so all winter,
forming mat on the ground. In the spring
the ground is thoroughly prepared by deep
blowing and narrowing, after which it is
marked off in drills ten inches to one foot
apart, one way. The wheat plants are then
pulled up from abe bed in punches and care
fully picked apart, one at g time, and
dropped at distances of four to six inches in
the drills in the field After the dropper fol-
lows the planter. who with trowel or thin
paddle, makes holes in the drills at the
proper distances. and sets out the separate
plants in the same manner as strawberry,
tomato or tobacco plants are set out When
the work is done there is wheat field plant
ed in drills one foot apart, and with the
plant six inches apart in the drills 1t is a
tedious and particular process. But on the
small tive-acre Belgium farm, worth 5000 to
$500 an acre, it amply pays for the trouble.
The Belgian wheat fields, after being planted,
are carefully cultivated between the rows by
hand until the plants are too high to admit
of further work, The plants branch into
stools, from each of which shoot up stalks
bearing heavy heads OF grain; and when the
harvest comes the yield is 100 to $50 bushels
of grain to the acre.

of any relief, the first breaks down his general

The oan to Rev. H. S. Yerger, was

Anderson Street Presbyterian church, an off,

and sustaining the relationship towards it Of a
child to parent Still the call is not to the
mother church, though its officers and members
are deeply interested in it, and will give to Mr..
Yerger cordial and fraternal welcome should
he see his way clear to accept the invitation.
Rev. l. S. K. Arson, D. D., has been the pas
tor of the Independent Presbyterian church for
% years, and we hope to keep him for 25 years
longer if God spares his life. For the last 10
years he has had junior pastor working with
him. and the two have had joint care of the two
churches but upon the resignation of Rev. R.
P Kerr recently from the junior pastorship, it
was decided that hereafter the Anderson Street
church should have its own distinct pastor, and
the call was sent to Mr.. Yerger"

need to haveit brought forward. Ofcourse
the writer had to be guided by his own
observation, and as the same difficulties
do not exist in all sections of the Church,
the writer singled out such as had been
prominently suggested to him by his per-
sonal observation. If IS. L. c." will
read over his own report given in the
second paragraph of "Scripsit'' he will
find not little there which might be
very proftably put into operation, though
much more might have been suggested.
