Talk Tariff.

40 THE EDIToR-Sir: Let the democracy
talk tariff, disseminate tariff literature of
the various kinds, and above all in Indi-
ana give the people THE DAILY and WEEK
LY SENTINEL. Keep up the tariff organize
tons; lay aside all bitterness and reason
with the people; prove your arguments.
and the victory will come in Gods own
good time. The American people, the
merchant, farmer, mechanic and pro-
fessipnal man, know there is something
wrong, and all great reformations are not
born in a day. With tariff reformation
and other things righted, the silver ques-
ton will be taken care of in due seasoc.

o'clock this morning His illness was
short, and no one outside of his imme-
date family was aware that his life was in
peril until the sad news of his death was
announced.
DIR. Bullock, the physician in attendance,

SWEET CORN.
A Test of Fifty Varieties Made at Purdue
University.

A Test of Fifty Varieties Made at Purdue
University.
Fifty varieties of sweet corn were OBJ
tanned from different sources and planted
April 49, on soil which had previously
been planted to potatoes. All were given,
as nearly as possible the same treatment.
The table below shows the per cents
which terminated, when each variety was
ready for the table, the quality and COM
parative rank as to yield 90 being the
highest). 1t will be seen that an attempt
has been made to remove some of the
superfuous appendages attached to
some of the names, where it could
be done without destroying the
entire name, in order to make them con-
form more closely to the rules adopted by
the committee of experiment station hor-
ticultursts, which state that "the name
of a variety should consist of a single
word, or at most, of two words" A phrase,
descriptive or otherwise, is never allow
able. as, pride OF Italy," Earliest of
ALL" The necessity for this revision of
names is particularly noticeable in the
list OF garden seeds, as found in the vari-
Gus catalogues; and il is to be hoped some
action will be taken in the near future
looking to the revision of the entire cata-
logue OF garden vegetables. The following
is the table of tests referred to above:

Recipes.

Chocolate and Marble Cake.-Make sill
yer cake. Mix chocolate with one-third
of the batter, and proceed as usual in this
cake.
Currant Cake-Made like silver cake
with the addition of Zante currants and
the whole of two eggs, instead of the
whites of three. Lemon flavor.
Citron Cake-Made like silver cake
Add sliced c;tron and flavor with almond.
Flavor the frosting with either lemon or
vanilla when almond is used in cake.
Cocoanut Cake.-Make silver cake.
Stir in desiccated cocoanut to taste, one
half TO two-thirds of n cupful is usually
desirable, After frosting sprinkle cocoa
nut over the ton. OF course. fresh cocoa
nut is to be preferred, but cannot always
be obtained.
Chocolate Ribbon Cake.-Make silver
cake, with middle layer darkened with
chocolate instead of spice vanilla; use
chocolate filling or jelly. as preferred.
Watermelon Cake-Made like silver
cake. Take out one-third of the batter.
Add about two tablespoonfuls of red sugar
to this. Put layer of white in tin, add the
red. Lay evenly upon the red one-half or
two-thirds of cupful of raisins for water
mainder of the white Frost with red,
either mixing the sugar into the frosting
or sprlnkling upon it before drying. Va
nilla flayoring.
Foundation Tor silver Cake.-0ne cup
full of powdered sugar, one-third of a cup
full of butter, three eggs whites only, and
be sure Ihev are fresh; one-half OF q
cupful of milk, one even cupful of flour
(sifted). one teaspoonful of baking powder
(even) flavor to taste. Now the success
OF this cake depends entirely on how it is
put together and baked. II the following
directions are closely obeyed, failure can
hardly come. So, first OF all, see that you
have medium oven and do not let it get
hot throughout. Then butter your tin.
The quantity given makes one card.
Then place all the ingredients together on
the table, for, after certain point the
work must be done rapidly. Rub sugar
and butter together until the mixture
curls up after the spoon. Do not make
the mistake of using instead OF powdered
the confectioner's sugar, for disas-
trous results follow. And granulated DOES
not make so fine grain. Beat the whites
to a stiff froth with an egg-beater. And
then comes one great secret of the fine
light" that almost invaribly is an attrib-
ute OF this cake, and that is this" After
adding the whites to the butter and sugar,
beat all three together with the beaten
until the mass is one white foam, then
toss i'm the sifted -four. milk, baking power
and flavor. AS rapidly as possible beat all
together for a moment after they are well
mixed then pour into the pan and set in
the oven without delay. The rule for
"slamming the oven door holds good in
this case. If the oven is medium" as
prescribed, you need not even look Mt
your cake until you are pretty sure it is
done. Taken as it is given above it is
plain and delicate enough for child or a
dyspeptic. With its variations" it suits
the most epicurean taste. Any house
keeper can add to them ad libitum.

SUGAR BEEIs.

Results of Experiments Made at Purdue
Agricultural College.
During the season OF 1888, seven varie.
ties of sugar beet were raised by the hor-
ticultursl department OF this station. The
samples intended for chemical analysis
were very much wilted when received in
the laboratory. The results showed a
large amount of sugar present, but on ac-
count of the condition of the beets, the
numbers were not considered especially
reliable. Samples Of two varieties we're
obtained in fresh condition and gave 1919
per cent sugar for excelsior sugar beet,
and l1.3 for French white sugar beet
Only two beets of each variety were OBJ

Hints to the Farmer.

An open shed will be found beneficial
at all seasons of the year.
Foot rot in sheep can be partially pre-
vented by keeping the sheep away from
wet pastures, but the rot also attacks sheep
on dry locations.
The extremely wet season will have the
effect OF calling the attention of farmers
whose farms are wet TO the necessity of
draining with tile.
Try a soiling crop OF some kind. 1t
will be found of great assistance in feed
ing cattle and hogs. Peas and oats mako
an excellent crop for an early supply.
Land that has produced crop has lost
a portion of its fertility. This fertility
must not only be restored in some man.
ner. but the soil should be made richer
than before.
No matter how well fed the stock may
be, the greatest gain is secured when the
food is varied. A mess of green food may
contain but little nutrition. but it may
promote the appetite and induce an
animal TO consume more food.
1t is not the largest farms that pay. A
farm of any size can be made to paw a
profit if the management is correct. When
certain crons do not give q profit try some
be considered as much as possible.
The value of the vegetables purchased
by farmers every year is enormous. Trains
leaving Philadelphia daily with loads OF
vegetables in season for the farmers along
the lines of the railroads, many of them
giving the cultivation of garden no con-
sideratfon.
While some farmers spread all their
80 -. a.
crop of corn, and bestow the labor on a
large area, others may perform their work
on a single acre OF celery, cabbage or small
fruit, and realize larger profit than those
who cultivate ten times as much land.
All young animals should be pushed
from the start. When a calf makes rapid
growth in the beginning it viii require
less care and labor later on. The weak
and puny young animal always is more
expensive than the others. Many of the
early drawbacks are due to a failure to
properly care for the young stock the first
few weeks.
When a COW is turned out on a bare
field to pick up her food, she not only
travels over great distance of ground
of that which she should have, but she
also drops her manure where it is wasted.
Nothing is saved by compelling the cow
to depend on herself. \ saving of food
in one direction causes a loss in some
other way.
Every farmer is familiar with the use Of
the plow; but there are many kinds of
plows, each adapted TO some farms better
than to others, and it is important to Sc
lect the right make. There is no best
pillow for all kinds OF work, as level lands,
hill lands, light and heavy soils all re-
quire certain plows best adapted for the
work required to be done, and also for the
crop that is to be planted.
