seasons, while those raised In rich soil
or in partial shade are always sour.
A rank growth of foliage shades the

To MAKE CoCoA.-Allow two ia
blespoonfuls of prepared cocoa to one
breakfast cup; boiling milk and boiling
water. Put the cocoa into a breakfast
cup, pour over it sufficient cold milk to
make it into smooth paste, then add
equal quantities of boiling milk and
boiling water. and stir all well togeth-
er. Care must be taken not to allow
the milk to get burnt.a as it will entirely
spoil the flavor of the preparation. The
above directions are usually given for
making the prepared cocoa. The rock
cocoa, or that bought in solid piece,
should be scraped and made in the
same manner, taking care to rub down
all the Jumps before the boiling liquid is
added. Two teaspOonfuls of prepared
cocoa for one breakfast cup. or one
quarter ounce of the rock cocoa for the
same quantity.

NOTES ON SEASONABLE SUBJECTS.
For storing turnlps and other roots
out side a conical.shaped mound is
used. First thorough drainage must
be looked after. Then layer Of straw
is placed on the ground for bed, upon
which the roots are placed. When the
desired quantity bave been stored, four
inches thickness of straw isplaced over
the roots, which in turn is covered by
twelve inches of earth, well packed. A
ventilator tube, one inch In diameter,
is placed in the top of the mound,
which is brought to a point, the object
being to exclude both frost and water
from the roots.

SENSIBLE SUGGEsTIoNs.-Where
the temperature in winter does not go
below zero, except occasionally, late
cabbage may be placed together. heads
up, with roots attached, trenches being
dug for that purpose, leaving the heads
above ground. over which a thick COW
eripg of straw, leaves and cornstalks
should be placed, and the outside ridges
banked, so as to turn the water. In
the spring the stalks will throw off
sprouts for early green's. If the climate
be severe, however, the heads should
be down and the roots up, and the
mound we'll covered. so as to keep off
as much frost as possible.
The national leader., 1889-01-26

GREENHOUSE AND WINDOW
PLANTs.-A sudden fall Of tempera-
ture during the night cannot be fore
seen, and it Is we'll to consider what
should be done in an emergency.
Sprinkling water upon the pipes is one
of the most ready means of raising the
temperature. Plants in windows upon
anticipation of very cold night may
be removed to the middle of the room,
or an Arrangement may be made for
hanging over the plants. A screen of
light cloth or paper to be put over the
plants while the room is being swept,
will aid greatly in keeping them free
of dust. The health of evergreen plants
is much promoted by giving weekly
showering, pacing the window plants
in the bath tub. Plants too heavy to
move, OF that are suspended, like ivy,
should have their leaves washed simply
with soft cloth and warm water.
InSects.-It is seldom convenient to
smoke house plants, and tobacco water
may be used for insects instead. stand
ing the pots in the bath tub, or spaci-
Gus sink. Pour boiling water upon
cheap tobacco, dilute it to the color of
weak tea. Lay the pots upon their
sides in order that the under surface
of the leaves may be reached, Fre-
quent drenching with water only will
keep red spiders in subjectlon.
Bulbs that we're potted last fall should
be well noted by this time, and should
be brought into light, and given water,
and they will soon be In bloom. Give
the plants ventilation whenever the out
side weather will allow. Window
plants may be given air by opening the
window of an adjoining room.
Pots of AnnataEs make fine decora-
tion for the window or greenhouse, and
now is the time to SOW the seeds.
Nemophila, or "Love-Grove," with its
abundance Of hghv-blue flowers, is one
of the best, as 1t likes shady place.
Candyt uft, Sweet Alyssum, and MlgnO-
nette, are useful for cutting. The
Canary bird flower is an annual elm
ber, and useful to train up the window
from the inside, or later. upon the out
side, and to trail over the balcony.
Propagdtion.-In the greenhouse pro-
pagate from cuttings and by seeds such
plants as will be needed for the garden
In spring. Look out for sudden and
sharp changes Of weather.

HOUSEHOLD.

FRENCH FRITTER BATTER should
he made as follows: Put one cup of
-four into a bowl, and add gradually,
stirring all the while, two thirds of a
cup of ice water, add the well beaten
yolks Of two eggs. half teaspOonful of
salt and a tablespoonful of olive oil.
Give the whole a vigorous beating and
stand away in the refrigerator at least
two hours. While this is standing a
lobster may Ee boiled, opened and cut
into dice, of course rejecting the pol
sonous parts. Put two tablespoonfuls
of butter In saucepan, and when
melted add two level tablespoonfuls Of
-four, mix and add one pint Of cream or
milk, teaspoonful of salt and salt
spoon Of white pepper; now add the
lobster and stand it over boiling water.
while you make the buchee cases. This
operation, if deftly done, requires but
few minutes, and the cases should not
be made until near serving time. Take
the batter from the refrigerator and
stir In carefully the well beaten whites
of the eggs. Have ready pan of
smoking hot fat. Dip the bouchee
mold in the hot fat, then into the frit.
ter batter, then back into the fat; hold
it there for a moment until the batter
sticking to it is crisp and brown; care
fully lift it out and slip off this case.
Place it upside down on a paper to
drain, and so continue until you have
the desired quantity. If the cases be-
come timber, they have not been cooked
sufficiently long. When ready to serve
arrange the cases on a pretty dish gar
nished with green, fill with the lobster
and send to the table smoking hot.
To be perfect the cases should be
thin and wafer like, crisp and brown.
