THAT "NurrY" FLAVOR.

The demand in the market Is for but
.er with nutty flavor, aud as it is not in
the original flavor of the milk, but de-
veloped by a certain care and handling
of the milk and cream, there must be
pretty nearly uniform care of the milk,
and. back OF this, uniform feeding and
attention to not only the COWS but their
surroundings. When the whole matter
is sifted, and the actual methods ex-
plained how this flavor is obtained, it
will be noticed that it is only taking the
best care of the milk, by making every
utensil bright and clean and doing lore
than straining dirt and its cOmpatriots
cut OF the milk, bat rather in not allow
ing them to get into the milk. Then, If
the milk is cared for IN uniform way,
cooled down to a certain point, the tenn
perature controlled, cream ripcned so
much and no more, and the cream
churned then and not some time in the
future, and the buttermilk washed
out. and the butter sailed so much aud
worked down so dry, the nutty flavor
needed will be developed promptly on
time and in needed amount. 1t is a uni
form care, treatment and handling that
insures quality, texture and favor in but

Nature has provided for John Boyle
OReilly tomb worthy Of the man.
On the highest point of Hollywood
Cemetery, Brookline, Mass, there
crops out a ledge Of rocks whose base
is in the foundation walls Of the
earth. Countless Tons ago the great
glacial plane passed over its iron face
and left a polished surface which the
rains and frosts Of thousands Of years
have hardly dimmed. Grinding its
way slowly over the reef the mighty
glacier left its indclible imprint be-
hind, and left also an equally endur-
ing memento Of its passage giant
boulder OF conglomerate rock, fifteen
feet high and, roughly speaking,
about twelve feet sQuare-seventy-
five tons Of weather-stained, time
defying, eternal rock. 1t stands on
the crest OF the picturesque height, a
landmark conspicuous above all else
in the neighborhood, solitary, massive
and majestic.
1t is the tombstone Of John Boyle
O'Reilly. No mark, save a single
tablet on its face, mars the severe
simplicity OF the noble mOnolith,
which is natures fitting memorial to
Gods nobleman. Mankind will honor
him by a suitable work of man in the
city Of his adoption, but this monu-
ment will stand for all time, imper-
ishable as the fame Of the man who
sleeps beside it.

GREEN MANCRING.

In these days of green manrrlng 1t Is
important to get facts as to the rational
basis for the practice AMI also learn
what kinds OF substances are best az a
green fertilizer. It has been determined
BIZ Professor Muntz that leguminous
plants, such as lupiues, are of most value
rs green manure, and this is because
such crops gather much nitrogen from
the air, and in their decomposition in the
soil furnish tais element in one or more
OF its compounds to the succeeding
crop that may have only feeble power in
Selling upon the nitrogen OF tle atmo3-
phere. The expeTimenter concludes also
that the value OF any green manure crop
may be quite accurately measured By the
rapiditg with which it decomposes in
the soil after being turned under. While
this rate to a large extent is determined
by the plants themselves it is found tia.
the soil exerts marked effect. In light
soil, for example, the nitriication Of
green lupine plants aud dried blood is
about equal, while upon a heavy clay
soil that of the lupines is twenty-five
times as fast as that of the dried blood.
This great difference in favor Of the lu-
mines is considered due TO the loOsening
Of the soil by the decomposiug plants By
which areation is facilitated, which, in
turn, supplies the conditions favoFing
the formation OF the compounds OF nitro
gen. Therefore, to build up soil by
green manuring it is we'll to consider the
quality of the crop and the character Of
the soil.-Ne,o York Tribune.

Historic Bell.

One would hardly expect to find
anywhere in this country, least Of all
in New England mill, and still in
daily use, thing Of human manu-
facture that is older than the Oldest
title Of the English peerage; a thing
that was made before the first English
Parliament was formed. But such a
thing actually exists, and Is in daily
use In factory in Saylesyllle, r. l.
1t is a bell, and has an interesting
history. Around the bell, about four
inches from the crown, is this super
scrlption: "Peter Secest, Amsterdam,
Ammo 1863, me fecit."
The date, together with other we'll
authenticated facts, leads to the be-
lief that the bell was long used in a
convent bclfry in England, and was
taken therefrOm for public use dur
ing the Reformation. But the con-
Meeting link between its life in the
old world and its advent to America
Is the famous naval battle between
the Guerrero and the Constitution.
The Guerrero, helpless wreck,
was rolling in the trough Of the sea,
while hGr brave but defeated com.
mander, Capt. Dacres, of the Royal
Navy, on the deck Of the American
frigate, the Constitution, was offering
his sword to the gallant Capt. Hull.
The two heroes had been friends in
time of peace, having often exchanged
Inequalities at the Mediterranean
ports, and now Hull's magnanimity
shone out.
"No, no, Dacres," he said, I'LL not
take your sword. Keep 1t"
In the meanwhile the boats Of the
Constitution were busily engaged in
transporting the crew of the defeated
ship to the deck of the victor. A
mldshipman reported to the first lieu
tenant that the ships bell had been
carried away by grape-shOt from the
Guerrero, and that there was no way
Of announcing the time to the ships
company.
At that moment the Guerrero gave
q succession OF heavy plunges, and the
clear tones Of a fine bell rang out over
the water.
There you have it," Lieut.. Wads-
worth said to the midshipman. "Go
get the Englishman's bell; there will
be no further use for it on board that
craft"
The Guerrero surrendered at !
o'clock in the evening Of the 10Th OF
August, 1912, and at 8 o'clock that
same evening Peter Secest's bell, in
sonorous tones, rang out the hour on
board "Old IrOnsides."
1t was Immediately pronounced a
success, and decided improvement
over its predecessor, and at once be-
came a great fayorite with the ship:
company.
With the lapse Of time, the bell,
amid the confusion and debris COM
mon to a great navy-yard, became
misplaced, lost its identity, and was
thrust carelessly to one side. 1t
found its Way to the scrap-heap; was
afterwards sold by the United States
authorities, and finally came to rest
in its present quarters.

4 little baking soda placed upon a

Lamp tops, when boiled occasionally
in little soda and water, are as good as
new.
Lemon rubbed on the face and hands
tends to remove freckles and whiten the
skin.
When peeling onions place a pin
tightly between the front teeth. This
prevents the tears from coming.
Pancakes are easier to pour when pre-
pared IN tin kettle with a spout. A
small one can be purchased for the pur-
pose.
Persons who perspire freely should put
little ammonia in their toilet water. 1t
is pleasant, and dries the skin very CT
fectively.
A hall window may be made very
pretty by pasting on it stained glass
paper, which can be purchased for
small sum of money, and easily applied.
Never wash in warm water before 60
ing out in the cold air. Such practice
will roughen the skin. Warm water
should be used only before retiring.
When drying the face always rub
down, as rubbing both ways tends to
roughen the skin.
A very palatablc dish can be made Of
mashed potatoes and a little fuely
chopped meat OF one or more kinds,
mixed together, favored with salt and
pepper, and fried 10 small fat cakes.
Oatmeal is excellent for the skin.
Soak cupful in little water for three
or four hours. Apply to the face aud
hands before retiring, and do not rub
of. Dry oatmeal rubbed on the skin
after bath is also very beneficial.
Flannel cakes are great deliclcies for
breakfast on cold mornings. Take a

of sweet milk, and a spoonful OF sugar.
Mix with water into a batter, then fry
in hot pan with little lard Or butter.

VIII There Be a GIut on Diamonds?

By degrees the De Beers Company has
bought up the four principal mines in
the district, which are included in the
limited space of four square miles and
comprise the Kimberly, area thirty-onc
acres; Du Tots, thirty-fye acres; Built
fontein, twenty-seven acres, while the
De Beers proper, the most valuable of
all, spreads over eighteen and one-halI
acres. In addition it has large pro.
prietorship in Brazilian mines. The
directors therefore strenuOusly insist,
with every appearance of sound reason
ing, that the purchase of their shares
should not be regarded as a speculation
like gold mind property, but as safe AMI
permanent investment. They claim
that, being the chief diamond producers
in the world, they can SO regulate the
issue of stones to the market that they
can maintain a steadily uniform price,
and that their uaworked "blue, even
at the present level, will suffice for many
years harvest on the existing scale. BIT
as yet the bottom has not been plunbei,
and the deeper the shaft the richer the
produce.
1 may mention the theory, which
however crude, is not entirely without
verisimilitude, that the diamondilerious
material has been thrust up by igneous
agency from immense profun1ity through
superintendent mass; that the same
agent had long ago crystallizs1 the dia-
monds; and that If we could dig down
to that crust we should find the precious
stones sticking to the roof like pieces of
suet in a pudding. Nor is it argued
can there be the smallest doubt -after
such long and extensive experience, as
to the uniform average richness of the
earth For instance, the accepted esti-
mate that one De Beers truckload will
produce one and one-half carats is useful
and true in theory only, but that thou.
sand loads will bring to light 1900 carats
is perfectly accurate in practice.-

PIrTING PoTAT oEs.

Where potatoes are to be kept through
the winter, aud are not wanted for
market or use till spring, well-con'
suucted pit out of doors is the best way
to keep them. Cellars are always too
warm, and even a temperature OF fifty
degrees starts the eyes whether the cellar
be light or dark. In a dark cellar the
potatoes III bin will be found grown
together If not examined frequently. In
cut of door pits, unless the winter IS ex-
tremely warm, scarcely al eye will have
started M to the time the pit IS ready to
be opened. Such potatoes for seed are
worth double what the same potatoes
would be kept SO warm that each eye has
sprouted and must have its original
Growth broken OF. 1t stands to reason
that this first growth has greater vigor
than will any one that starts afterward.
The ut should only be lightly covered
and good ventilation be given up to the
tune of severe freezing. Just before
that put on another coat Of straw over
the whole heap and cover with four or
five inches deep of soil. If weather be-
low zero is threatened in winter draw a
few loads Of manure from the horse
stables and give the pit another covering.
When thus trebly covered there is little
dancer that even zero weather will reach
dowa to freeze the potatoes. Boston

Beaten Only by MethuseIah.

Henry jenkins, Of Bolton, Lanca-
shire, England, lived to be 1863 years
old. Mrs. Anna Sayille, a writer Of
Jenkins time, has the following in
her account Of him: Il questioned
him about his age He said he was
162 or 1863 / asked him what public
event he could longest remember.
He said the battle Of Floddcn Field,
when Henry VIII. was King. lie
said he was then between 10 and II
years Of age, and was sent TO North
allertOn with a horsc-load Of arrows,
but that a bigger boy was sent 30 the
army with him." All this agrees with
the history Of that time, bows and
arrows being then in use. The battle
CT Flodden Field was fought Sept. 9,
1913, and Henry Jenkins was then q
boy between 10 and II years Of age,
died Dec. 9, 1869, so that he must
have lived at least 100 years, sixteen
year longer than old Parr, who was
born in Shropshire in 1883, and died
IN 1885. If this account Of the age
Of jenkins is reliable, he lived longer
than any other man in the known
world, except Methuselah, concerning
whose age there has been much dis
pute.

Hard Times in Russia.

The Russian nobility are in com.
parariyely as wretched circumstances
as the peasantry. There will be
nearly 900 estates belonging to no.

of the State Bank that has loaned
them money on mortgages. The es-
