A South American Beverage.

can testify from experience, says
Fannie B. Ward in the Washington
Star, that the civilized chicha of Peru aud
Bolivia. the universal beverage of the
lower classes, is good enough for any,
body. There are many ways Of making
it in different pats of South America.
That most common in the two countries
above mentioned is from shelled corn,
well washed and bruised, then tied upin
leaves and boiled ten or twelve hours
until quite soft. This pulpy matter Is
then run through coarse sleeves and put
into barrels, which are filed up with
water Miehl honey or sugar-cane
syrup is then added in varying degrees
to suit the taste OF the chicha maker,
and after few days OF fermentation it
is ready to drink.
Another and perhaps more common
method is to put the shelled corn, I'm.
cooked, into large, square holes dug in
the ground not deeper than six or eight
inches, the top and bottom being well
covered with a layer of clean straw.
Water is then poured on several times
every day and in the course of a week or
two the corn begins to sprout. When
these shoots have grown about an inch
long the corn is taken out, crushed be-
tween stones, put into barrels and fer
mented with water and honey as before.
Chicha is not intoxicating unless taken
in ino~dinate quantities, but is mildly ex.
hilarating, and among the poorer classes
in measure takes the place of food. 1t
is the fashion among los ricos and the
foreigners to treat one another to pic ante
luncheon-m meaning native dishes made
very hot with peppers and ali, cooled by
gobets of chicha.

ENsTLAGE For PIGS.

Experiments in feeding ensilage to
pigs were made at the New York Sta
ton at Geneva, extending over period
of about five months. The ensilage was
finely cut and made frora corn ripe
enough for husking. The following
points have been CLEANED from the
bulletin, giving the experiments in de-
tail.
At first some of the pigs would not
eat enough from the ensilage alone to
make any gain unlessfed such very large
amount that it was simply rooted over
for the pieces of corn on the cob, which
were at all times first eaten. The ensi-
lage was never all swallowed even
when fed in very small quantities, al
though after the grain had been eaten
out the remainder was cbewed. All of
the pigs were given nearly enough bran
and middlings for sustenance, and some
were fed as much ensilage in addition as
they could eat or chew over, while others
were fed at the same time, in contrast,
corn on the cob.
The results show that with ensilage
rated as low as 81 per ton the gross cost
for production of pork was considerably
more than its market value, when the
proportion of ensilage was about seventy
per cent. Of the ration.
When corn took the place of part of
the ensilage, the ensilage forming an av-
erage of forty-four per cent. of the total
food, the gross cost of the pork, with
ensilage rated no higher than 81 per
ton, was about the same as where no en-
silace was fed.-Neo York World.

row TO EARTH CELERY.

For home use and IN small quantities,
the better way is to earth celery a
row at time. The reason of this is that
celery, once bleached thoroughly, while
the earth is warm and sun hot, is apt to
rust, if not taken up and used. Among
market men, certain portion is earthed
up, and when ready sent to market.
Hence they have under process all the
time portion fit for market, with more
on the way. 1t is always best, when the
celery is nearly full grown, to keep
enough soil down about the plants to
prevent the stalks from spreading.
That intended for fall use will require
sarthing some two or three weeks before
it is fit for use. This, however, entirely
depends upon the condition OF the atmos-
phere In hot weather, couple of weeks
will bleach it perfectly. In the cold days
Of fall, double the time may be necessary.
That intended for late winter and spring
use keeps better not too well bleached
when put away for winter. Hence that
planted latest and small is selected for the
purpose. Before earthing, the loose
leaves and suckers are best pulled off, SO
as to leave all clear, straight stalks. Then
again, in the earthing some care is neees-
cary to keep soil from the heart of the
plant, so as to leave the center free pas
sage for the new growth.
For small quantities, this is aided by a
loose band of some tying material, which
can be slipped up as the growth pro-
eeeds.
One other thing, never earth up while
the dew or rain has wetted up the stalks.
Dig only as wanted for use. Celery loses
much of its crispness if exposed long to
the weather. Prairie Farmer.

Scottish Gynsjps.

Gypsies stole into Scotland from Ire
land about the year 1900. So consum-
mately shrewd were they in carrying out
their assumption of pilgrimage under the
leadership of Anthonius Gawino, Earl of
Little Egypt, and of being under COM
mands of the Pope to wander seven
years without sleeping in bed" that
they actually secured the countenance if
not the favor of James ". They re-
ceiyed no molestation worthy to be called
such until 1879, when James VI, "took
the government into his own hands"
Then a statute was passed "for punish
inert of strong and idle vagabonds and
beggars, and the relief of the poor and
impotent." This statute was very severe
against the gypsies, and ordered that
their ears should be cut off and them
selves banished. This law was ratified
in 1892, and another statute passed in 1897
that they be, on conviction, made slaves
for life. In 1900 another act enforcing
all previous statutes bearing on their
regulation and punishment, aud severely
condemning the negligence of justices
and commissioners in not putting prev
ious laws against them into execution
was passed; and in 1903 the privy coun-
Gil ordered the whole race to leave the
country by certain date, under the pen
atty of death. In 1909 this order was
made perpetual law, but it appears
that, if these statutes were not actually
set at defiance by the gypsies themselves,
they we're effectually voided by the SYM
patty and assistance extended them by
the different powerful Scottish clans,
some of which were allied to the wander
ers by marriage or secret and still mora
influential ties, which the Government at
that period very loosely controlled.
