THE MCKINLEY ENGINE.

Mr.. B. f. Mckinley, inventor and
patentee Of the Mckinley Air En-
CINE, cut of which is here given,
was in our city a few days since. We
take pleasure in recommending his
engine to all parties needing an en-
CINE for any purpose. We have been
running our presses with one of them
for over two years and we speak "by
the card" when we say that 1t is one
Of the best motive powers now In
use. One great advantage possessed
by 1t is that an explosion Is utterly
impossible, as 1t generates no steam.
1t is run by hot air aud only two or
three gallons Of water are used In
about 10 hours work-for keeping the
cylinder cool. The consumption OF
fuel is far less than any other engine
and its motion is regular and salts
factory in every way. Mr.. McKin-
ley is perfectly reliable gentleman
and makes good everything he prom
isss to all who use his engines. We
will take pleasure in showing ours to
anyone contemplating the purchase
of an engine. fyou want safe, re-
liable and fuel-saving motive power,
"The Mckinley" will fill the bill.

FARM NOTES.

COOKING FOOD FOR FOWLS.-How
to feed well ard at the same time
economically is often the question
with people who must make their fowls
pay in dollars and dimes. as well as in
pleasure and recreation. And even
the wealthy fowl owners are not averse
to having their fowls pay for their food
and care, even if they are not expected
to pay for their expensive houses and
fancy runs. With persons living east
of the Rocky Mountains corn must
always continue to be the cheapest
food, but 1t has been Objectionable as a
constant food on account of its fatten-
ing properties We believe by cooking
the corn whole until quite soft and
swollen TO the fullest extent that q
flock of hens may be Kept in good
laying condition when fed corn almost
exclusively. We have been experiment.
ing with corn boiled very soft, roasted
and parched until we'll baked through
and very little fed IN it's natural state,
and find our hens laying splendidly
upon it. They have been fed as much
as they cared to eat, were running
upon a good grass rum and fed no
other kind Of dry or green food. This
food, we may say, is very cheap, cost
ing fifty cents per bushel, and kept
the hens in finer condition and at less
cost than anything else that we could
feed.
Corn. oats, and wheat are increased
almost double size by cooking. and as
natural result the hens will not get
fat because they get only half as much
solid matter when fed cooked as when
fed dry grain. They relish it greatly.
All soft foods and vegetables make
better food for fowls if cooked or
scalded well. If large kettle and
plenty OF water and fuel is accessible,
it is very little trouble cooking the
rations Of several hundred hens. If
only small flock is kept. enough food
can be cooked In small dish or pan
to do them day. Cooked food should
not be kept until sour and stale, but
should be fed sweet and wholesome.
We are satisfied that saving of nearly
one half can be effected by the proper
use of water, steam, and fire.

CHOCOLATE CUsTARD PIE. - Si1
eggs, one quart of milk, two thirds of 8
cup of sugar, scant pint Of boiling
water. a quarter cake OF chocolate
grated. Vanilla. Dissolve the chOco.
late in very little water, add the boil
ing water, and boil three minutes.
When almost cold add the beaten yolkA
and three whites of the eggs, the sugar,
vanilla and milk. Line tins with good
paste and pour in the mixture. When
the custard has set. but not stiff, cover
with the reserved whites, whipped to a
froth with little sugar added. Just
brown. Care must be used that the
custard is not too much done before
the whites are spread over.

LEMON SHORTCAKE.-Make a short
cake dough exactly like strawberry
shortcake. While that is baking CRATE
the peel Of lemon and squeeze every
drop of Juice from it into the bow, then
take half cup of sugar and half cup
of molasses, a teacupful of water, a
little lump of butter and tablespoon
full of flour. Let this boil until 1t is
Just about as thick as boiled custard.
When the shortcake Is baked cut &c in
two parts, and pour the mixture over
the lower one, then lay the upper part
on this, bottom side up, and cover that
also with custard.
The national leader., 1889-04-06

CHOCOLATE SAUCE.-This is saHce
much used in Europe as an accom1}ani-
ment to various puddings and Sponge
cake molds. Crate TWO ounces, of fine
chocolate. and stir it into half q pint of
cream and half pint Of milK until 1t
boils. The vanilla chocolate yor boil an
inch of vanilla in the cream while max
ing it, and as much VII 80 sugar as will
sweeten it. When 1t boils mix it with
the yolks of four eggs till it froths we'll,
then return 1t to the stewpan, and stir
till it thlckens. but do not let it boil.
Take it from the fire. Have tSle whites
OF the eggs whisked to stiff snow,
with tablespoonful Of sifted sugar.
Stir this into the chocolate without
breaking up the snow entirely.
The national leader., 1889-04-06

SILVER CAKE. - Whites of eight
eggs, whipped to a froth. three quar-.
tiers Of pound of white granulated
sugar. half pound of butter. Add
the sugar and butter to the eggs and
beat to cream. Add half cup of
sweet cream. set the -four In the oven
until hot, then sift thoroughly to re-
move all Jumps. Add the flour one
cup at time until it is stiff enough.
AS some eggs are larger than others,
the same amount will not always an
swer. Last add four teaspoonfus OF
baking powder and flavor to taste. BY
adding half cup of red sugar you will
have a handsome cake.

THE attempts to introduce too much
color in dinner table decorations are
declining. The finest white damask
still holds the preference, and the cen
ter piece of plush or velvet under lace
Is little used now. Fewer flowers. too.
are seen. and those in low forms. The
latest fashion In ice cream plates is the
Bohemian glass, in oval form, with
small handles. Menu cards, hand
painted, hold the preference, but many
are seen on tinted cardboard. with
engraved vignette in one corner and
the date in another.

BRINE PICKLEs.-Take stone jar
and sprinkle some coarse rock salt on
the bottom, then put in layer OF Gu
cumbers. then layer Of salt until you
have the jar full. They will make a
brine for themselves. AS they settle
down, fill up If you wish to. When
wanted for use. take out what is re-
auired, and pour boiling water over
them, soak until enough, then put into
vinegar. To keep pickles free from
scum, they must be washed clean and
the little black pickles removed.
