But there are a great many good
people who get afrighted in other re-
spects; they are afrightcd in our day
about reviv;ls. They say: oh! this
is strong religious gale; we are
afraid the church of God is going to
be upset, and there are going to be a
great many people brought into the
church that are going to be of no use
to it." and they are atfrighted when
ever they see revival taking hold Of
the churches. As though ship cap
tain, with FIVE thousand bushels Of
wheat for cargo, should say some
day, coming upon deck: Throw over
board all the cargo" and the sailors
should say: Why, captain, what do
you mean2 Throw over all the cargo2"
"Oh," says the captain, I'VE have
peck of chaf that has got into this five
thousand bushels of wheat, and the
only way to get rid of the chatf is to
throw all the wheat overheard" Now,
that is a great deal wiser than the talk
of a great many Christians vino want to
throw overheard all the thousands and
tens of thousands of souls who are the
subjects of revivals. Throw all over
board because they are brought into
the kingdom of God through great re-
vivals, because there is peck of chaff,
a aquart of chatf, pint of chaff! Isay,
let them stay until the last day; the
Lord will divide the chaf from the
wheat. DO not be afraid Of a great
revival. Oh, that such gales from
heaven might sweep through all
our churches! Oh, for such days as
Richard Baxter saw in England, and
Robert McCheyne saw in Dundee!
Oh, for such days as Jonathan Ed
wards saw in Northampton I have
often heard my father tell of the fact
that in the early part of this century

THE ways IN which an omelet may be
made to vary are almost without num-
Der. The omelet with fine herbs is a
favorite with those people who like high
seasoning. Then the most fastid1ous
delight in an Omelet with mushrooms.
These, of course, must be chopped, or
be broken in fine bits, before they are
mixed with the omelet; parsley alone,
rubbed very fine, imparts a delicious
favor to a plain omelet; tomatoes added
to the omelets just before it hardens,
those having been already cooked, give
an excellent relish to it; later in the
season oysters chopped fine, or the Lit
tie Neck clam, render an omelet dish
to be longed for and to be eaten with
indescribable gustO.

TOMATOES cut into slices and baked
make a delicious entree, but to serve
with braiZed fowls and in highly sea-
soned gravies the tomatoes should he
cut into slices, be dipped in flour, and
then be Drowned in butter, with salt
and pepper scattered ON each slice. This
process imparts an indescribable flavor
to the tomatoes which nothing else
could give, and a new joy awaits the
lover of good things who has not par
taken of this relish. 1t is most agree
able as a garnish for fat and juicy
roast of beef, as well as of fowl and
lamb.

OATMEAL MUsH FOR CHILDREN OR

OATMEAL MUsH FOR CHILDREN OR
INvALIDs.-Take one cup granulated
oatmeal, half teaspoonful of salt and
one scant quart of boiling water. Put
the meal and salt in the double boiler,
pour on the boiling water and cook two
OF three hours. Remove the cover just
before serving and stir with a fork to
let the steam escape. If the water in
the lower boiler be strongly salted the
meal will cook more quickly. Serve
with sugar or salt and cream. Baked
sour apples, apple sauce and apple jelly
are delicious eaten with the oatmeal.
They should be served with the mush,
and the cream and sugar poured over
the whole. They give the acid flavor,
which so many crave in the morning.
Coarse oatmeal is not suitable for any
form of waterbrash, acidity or bowel
irritation. 1t often causes eruptions on
the skin in warm weather.

HOUSEHOLD.

MILK should enter largely into the
diet of children. 1t contains caseine, or
tlesh-forming material; cream and su-
gar, which are heat producers; mineral
salts, for the bony structure; and water,
as solvent for all the other materi ais
necessary in nutrition. 1t should be
used with discretion, however - not
drunk immoderately, but taken slowly
as food after the pattern given by ma
ture. Milk as taken is fluid; but as
soon as it meets the acid of the gastric
juice it is changed to soft, curdy,
cbeeselike substance, and then must be
digeSted, and the stomach is OvertaXed
if too much be taken at once. A large
glass of milk swallowed suddenly will
form in the stomach load of dense,
cheesy curd, which may even prove
fatal to weak stomach. Under the
action of the stomach this cheesy mass
will turn over and over like heavy
weight, and as the gastric Juice can
only attack its surface it digests very
slowly. But this same milk, taken
slowly, or with dry toast, light rolls, or
soft dry porridge, forms porous lump
through which the gastric juice can
easily pass, and which breaks up every
time the stomach turns it over. Milk
should be slightly salted and eaten with
breadstuffs or slipped by the spoonful.
Cows milk produces less heat than hu-
man milk; child would grow thin
upon it unless little sugar were added.
Wheat flour has such an excess of heat
producing material as would fatten a
child unduly, and should have cows
milk added to it to reduce its fattening
power.

ABOUT THE QUALITY OF ENs1I-

| ABOUT THE 4UAL1TY OF ENSIL-
AGE.-Five years ago many of our
most experienced farmers; as well as
some of the scientific investigators,
violently attacked ensilage, claiming
that it added nothing to the available
supply of food in winter, was lacking
in nutriment, and came out of the soil
in an acid condition. That there were
good grounds for this opposition is now
made apparent, as the causes of failure
have been discovered, but that ensilage
is now considered an indispensable
article on the dairy or stock farm, is no
longer denied by any one. 1t has forced
it's way wherever dairying exists, and
with our cheap corn-fodder, which gives
the American farmer an advantage,
the failure to use ensilage is to sacrifice
opportunities.
The mistake made by those who first
built Silos and stored green fodder
therein was in supposing that immature
green material was more suitable than
that in the advanced stage of growth.
Corn was broadcasted and the fodder
cut when but two or three feet high.
| Such material contained an excess of
water in its composition, and was lack
| ing in food elements. Its keeping
quality was also deficient, and, though
highly relished by the stock when fresh,
proved unsatisfactory as ensilage. 1t
is now known that the only proper mode
of securing ensilage from the corn
plant is to grow it in rows, so as to
cultivate it until it produces ears. 1t is
cut just when the ears begin to glaze
and stored in the silo. BY allowing the
corn to reach this stage of growth be-
| fore cutting it there is stored in the
stalks and leaves (also the ears) an
amount of valuable nutrition land of a
different character) that does not exist
in the plants when they are cut down in
glass crops, if intended for the silo,
should be cut when the seed heads are
forming. By cutting the crops when
they are nearly matured larger amount
of ensilage is secured, and the quality
is much superior to that obtained at
other stages of growth.
Experiments show that if the entire
stalks of corn be laid across each other
lengthwise, with the butts exposed to
the weather only, and protected by a
canvas, or some suitable covering, the
corn-fodder, If cut when the oars have
formed, can be kept in the fields with
but trifing loss. Silos, however. may
be built above ground in corner of the
barn, OF in the open field, provided
they are made air-tIght, and also strong
enough to resist the pressure. The
difficulty in the way has been removed
by the discovery that the quality of en-
silage depends largely upon the stage
of growth OF the plants used for the
purpose.

PLANTING TREEs.-The trees being
snugly heeled-in, do not plant until the
weather is settled, especially until the
long wind storms are over. These
winds are dangerous and shrivel up the
bark and destroy the verdure of the
buds, which the roots cannot yet supply
with moisture. If the trees come to
hand early in the spring, it is best to
heel them in until the weather gets
warm. If trees after long journey in
warm weather are found to have the
buds started and the bark shriveled,
trim them back, and cut each branch
back to a sound, dormant bud. Then
dig a trench in suitable soil, and lay in
the trees one by one, taking care that
in filling in every part of the shriveled
bark is in contact with the moist soil.
Cover all completely, root and branch,
taking care that the labels are properly
preserved. When the trees are taken
up at the end of week or more, the
bark will be found completely restored.
Examine the roots and prune the mutt
lated ones with smooth cut. Prune
the tops into proper shape. Some
nurseries give large head, while others
cut the young trees into shape while yet
in the nursery rows. A covering of
finely divided, light soil over the roots
is great benefit to newly planted
trees.
