Cranberry Pie: Chop two cups of

COTS or 'grubs' The dressing is well

Some of the red raspberries, says
the Country Gentleman, throw up
numerous suckers, and if all are al
lowed to remain and grow, they be-
come as bad as weeds. Select the few
which are to be left and grow for bear

The sooner this work is done the better
for those which are allowed to remain.

season to taste. Place layer of bread
in the bottom of a pudding dish, pour
over some berries, then add more bread

1t is curious, says a writer, that the
prevalent belief that the fleece of sheep
sheared on a warm day or in warm
weather will weigh more than the same
fleece would if sheared on a cold. dry
day, should be matter of discussion.
Wool is exceedingly absorbent of moist
ure, and, of course, when in warm
weather the heavy fleece causes the
sheep to perspire freely the wool will
absorb the larger part of the moisture
and increase in weight.-C.eUe!and
