Rocky Mountain Forest Fires.

Those who are unfamiliar with tho pine- clad slopes of the rocky mountains can have but little conception of the destruction wrought by fire which passes through these forests. The ground is covered to depth of q foot or more with the pitchy accumulations of centuries of forest growth. Pine needles, cone. dead branches and tho restnous trunks of fallen trees form forest floor that catches fire like finder and burns like furnace. A spark from camp fire, pipe or a cigarette, may ignite this forest floor, which may shoulder for hours or days before bursting into hame says Forest and Stream. This flame once started, the fire moves rapidly be- fore the wind, constantly finding, as 1t moves along, new food in tho debris upon ths ground. The foliage of the living evergreen trees burns as readily as hay soaked in kerosine oil. Each tree, as the fire touches il, becomes huge torch, which flares up for moment and then goes out, but in that moment the trees life has been destroyed, and the thou sand trunks of the forest are left to stand for years. black monuments of the fires destruc- tive force. Before a gale, such as often rages in the mountains, fire which got into the thick timber rushes onward with Q fury which is indescribable, and destroys in an hour timber that century of growth cannot replace.

Bananas,

Bananas.
 According to the New York Evening Post the best bananas are the yellow ones, with black spots, which indicate ripeness, not de- cay. Hang bunch in cool shady place to ripen evenly. In the tropics the principal food Is bananas, the daily rations of a laborer being between six and seven pounds, with @ little salt meat or fish. For desert, bananas are sliced and served with cream. The red banana is better for cooking, as it has firm CT pulp.
 BANANA FEATHERS.
 Slice half dozen in slices half an inch thick, and scatter over them two ounces of powdered sugar and three tablespoonfuls of orange or lemon juice. Let them stand for ty-fve minutes and fry in batter made of one cup of flour, half a cup of milk, one egg, one tablespoonful of sugar. one ounce of melted butter, half a teaspoonful of salt, and the grated yellow rind of half lemon. In mix then add the milk, then the -four, sugar and salt, and lastly the melted butter. When fried and drained, sift powdered sugar oyer the fritters.
 BANANA SALAD. Slice half dozen bananas and put them in dish with layers of as many oranges slic. ed. Over all squeeze the juice of a lemon and sprinkle plentifully with powdered sugar. Serve very cold. Any delicate oabe baked in layers and put together with layers of ba- nanas sliced thin makes Q choice dessert. The cake should be served with sweetened l whipped cream, or 1t will be too dry to be | palatable.
 A favorite way of serving bananas in New Orleans Is to cut them lengthwise in two l pieces, dust them with powdered sugar, 6 l little lemon juice and bits of butter, and to l bake them in the oven for twenty-five min- utes. They should be pasted with the butter l one or twice while baking, and served hot in | the dish in which they are cooked.
