The New Y ork Tribune is opposed
to silk culture as work for women in
this country. The work is of the most
monotonous and slavsh character, I'M
suited for our American women while
there is demand for eggs, honey, small
fruits, or flowers. In every silk-raising
country the women are obliged to work
at very starvation wages.

which will take several hours. Bake in
moderate oven three or four hours, or
till done.-7he Household

Most farmers think tn emselves
worse of than they are, because they
keep no accounts, and yet, paradoxical
as it may seem, the man who keeps
strict accounts, although sensible of
what he is making, generally goes on to
make more, while the man who, through
failure to keep any accounts, imagincs
himself worse off than he is, often goes
from bad to worse, until he really al
most comes to realize his gravest fore
bodings.-NontreaL Witness.
The value of many varieties or, in
fact of all squashcs that are calculated
for winter use, depends very much upon
their being thoroughly ripened. The

slight frost will considerably injure some
them before there is any serious danger,
and place them in some sunny place
where they can fully ripen and cure off,
and where they can be covered up or
easily removed in case of danger of Sc

decay of squashes.-San Francisco
Chronicle.
Every farmer should have stencil
plate with his name and residence cut
in it, so that he may plainly mark all
bags, blankets, robes and boxes with it;
| also brand with which he can burn
his name into the handles of hoes,
| shovels and tools. Then if he is blessed
with a borrowing neighbor the sight OF
the name may remind the borrower to
return the tool before he has worn it
out. AT least there will be less danger
of his thinking he owns it because he
has had it so long that he has forgotten
how he came by it.-IndianapOlis Sen

Dropped Eggs on Toast: Have ready
q dish OF hot water, well salted; break
the eggs into saucer, and slide Into the
water, one at time. Dip the hot water
with spoon over the top of the egg.
When done, take it up with skinner,
and lay on buttered toast, dust little
salt and pepper over it, and butter as
desired. Soft boiled eggs for invalids
should be put in a dish of boiling water
and set on the back part of the stove
where the water will only simmer.
They will cook evenly and be soft and
jelly-like. boston Globe.
