Recipes.

POTATOES STENED.-Cut boiled pota-
toes, while still warm, in neat, medium
sized pieces; cover them with hot milk,
and add salt, white pepper, and a little
butter for seasoning. Simmer in the
milk ten minutes, then fill au. gratin tins
with the stewed potatoes, add atop layer
of grated crumbs, and bake to a delicate
brown. Some like a little grated cheese
added to the bread-crumbs.
CHICKEN HASH ON RICE ToAsT.-This
is an excellent way for using the remains
of poultry. Tim the meat from the
bones, remove the skin, and cut the meat
fine, put in a pan; add a little water to
moistcn it, add salt and white pepper.
When the water is ~evaporated, arrange
it neatly on rice toast, and if desired a
poachcd egg may be placed on top. Pre-
pare the rice as follows: Boil the rice the
night before, pour it into a yellow dish
and place it in the ice-box with a weight
upon it. The next morning cut it in
half inch slices, brush little butter over
them; place the slices between the dou-
bic broiler and toast to a delicate
brown; pour a little melted butter over
them, add salt and pepper and the juice
of an orange.
HAMBURG STEAK.- Take one pound
of very finely chopped or scraped round
or rump steak. ii you do not care TO
scrape it free from sinews ask the
butcher to do it for you. Put in a fry
ing pan an ounce of butter; add a tea
spoonful of minced onion, and fry it a
delicate brown. Now shape the steak
in a round form about an inch and a
half thick, and fry it in the same pan
with the onion; when done add a pinch
of cayenne. Meat prepared in this form
is always more digestible than solid
steaks, and the ways of serving it are
quite numerous. Some like it raw,
highly seasoned with fnely-chopped raw
onion and parsley, cayenne, salt, and the
yolk of a raw egg. Others cat it very rare,
and some insist on cooking it almost as
dry as chips. In our opinion it is best
cooked about ''medium," and a poached
egg placed OF top Of it is quite accepta-
bic.
TuRN1Ps AND POTATOES MIXED
Turnips in any form are supposed to be
the appropriate vegetable to serve with
boiled mutton. 1t is an English custom
so to serve them. and one that has
become firmly rooted in many American
homes. To many, however, the turnip is
somewhat %indigcstiblc, and by others its
flavor is objected to. 1t is therefore
necessary to mix it with other things to
tone it down, and potato is the best
for this purpose. Mash the boiled tur-
nip and also an equal quantity Of boiled
potatoes, mix thoroughly, season with
salt and pepper. and for each portion Of
the mixture add a walnut of butter and
milk enough to make it quite soft. Put
in a ~baking-tin, strew over it a quantity
of grated crumbs, add a small piece of
butter, and bake to a delicate brown.
This mixture, combined with egg,
rolled into corks, and then fried, is &C
ceptable as croquettes. -New York Cook.

How to get Strong.

Dumb-bells and horizontal bars, Indian clubs
and the trapese are valuable under certain con-
ditions. but they are detrimental rather than
beneficial if the blood is poor and thin and pois-
oned with bile. Use of the muscles necessitates
waste as well as induces growth: If the blood
repair the waste, loss of strength necessarily
follows, and growth is out of the question.

will develop and not consume your physique.

Silage is getting a blast Of abuse from
many quarters now. In England its ene-

Bees can be safely wintered on their
summer stand. if properly packed in dry

is good, by making a hollow wall or

With 9, 900, 900, 900 bushels of corn in
the country there should be no excuse
for not fattcning the poultry we'll before
it is sent to market. Spare the feed and
spoil the poultry; but where does the
! profit come in?
Oats and rye are very similar to each
other in composition. To make a good
feed for horses, corn should be mixed
with them. A bushel of rye, two bushels
of oats and five of corn. ground together,
will make excellent food.
Oats and corn in equal parts, ground
together and made into a dough by boil
ing water, makes a first rate breakfast for
laying hens. Milk is, of course, better
than water. For supper give them whole
corn warmed in the oven.
The amount of stores necessary for the
safe wintering of an ordinary colony of
bees should not be less than twenty-five
pounds. Some will consume less or
more, according to the condition of the
winter weather, and its duration.

If you are having trouble with the
quality of your butter, just take down
the scythe from the old apple tree, says
the american Dairyman, and march out
in the pasture and stay there until you
have cut down every weed you can
find. There is no weed known in
botany that makes good milk; they are
natural enemies of every product
of the farm, and to dairy products in
particular.
AS a rule, cattle and sheep relish their
food best as near the natural state as
they can get it; grass fresh and green,
hay as nearly as possible to the condition
it was in the field, and fodder bright and
dry, without either chopping or cooking.
When feed has once been brought within
the reach of the animal, there is no ap-
pliance that 80 thoroughly fits it for the
animals use as the stomach itself, hence
when corn has been shelled for sheep or
crushed for cattle, further preparation of
this food only makes it less palatable.

The 24-inch water main on West Pleasant

in the valve connection about nine o'clock
last night, causing young flood for time,
the water pouring down the p, O. b 81. l..
railroad track like . mountain freshet, reduc-
ing the pressure to forty pounds. Chief
Simpson was finally reached and took steps
resulting in the pressure being taken off until
the section affected could be cut out. The
accident is supposed to have been caused by a
defect in the valve, for which an order for re-
pairs will have to be sent abroad. No par
ticular damage was done, but it is fortunate
no fire broke out before the break was discov-
cred and remedied.
