Care for the Cook Stove,


No cook stove. tn lugh it is in continual
use, should have fresh coat of backing
applied oftener than once month. though
every stove should be polished off with a
stove brush every morning before the
cooking begins. When fresh coat of
backing is applied monthly, remove the
old coat by rubbing off the stove while it
Is warm, but not hot, with rag dipped
in kerosene oil. This removes all grease
stains. Apply the new coat of backing
when the stove is cold, using cold coffee
instead of water for mixing the backing.
Be careful not to hlacken any of the stove
edges, which are OF polished iron, or any
of the knobs and other nickel work, hut
polish these by using securing soap or
brick dust for the polished iron and
whiting or any silver soap for the nickel
work. After the stove is thoroughly pol
lshed, wipe it off with dry, clean rag to
remove any dust of the backing After
this polishing, all that is necessary is to
keep a stove cloth at the side of the stove
to wipe up spots of grease before they are
burned IN and make a more enduring
stain, and to go over the stove with pol
ishing brush in the morning while the
fire is coming up. Thus with little care
a stove may be kept IN prime order, unless
the cook is one of those unhappy slovens
that spills Or boils over everything she
takes hold of. Cooking which is done in
a methodical manner does lot spill over on
the stove. There is no surer indication of
a household sloven than an ill-kept cook
stove.

Experience With Potatoes.

In running my eye over western pa
per | came across statement made by
correspondent that he had tried fertilizer
under seed potatoes and over them and
every other way and it would never pro-
duce lapger potato nor a smoother one
than the rows each side without any. He
had never found anything except good,
well-ratted barnyard manure that made
potatoes grow any better than to use clover
sod ground. Consequently all the fatigue
he has eyer put on his potatoes he con-
sidered lost. This is so different from my
own experience that | can account for it
only on the theory that his potato ground
did not need any fertilizer for this crop
Ia my own case have found the CONNER
cial potatoes manures so much superior for
this crop that | rely on them entirely, and
secure good yields with them from quite
poor soils. For the potato | prefer them
decidedly to stable manure. The tubers
have been fAirer and less troubled with
scab and worms, and | have had no rot.
The latter | attribute to deep planting and
the use of early ripening varieties

refuses to settle upon Mona's eyelids.
During the rest of the long hours that
mark the darkness she lies wide awake
staring upon vacancy, and thinking
ceaselessly until,
"Morn, in the white wake of the morning star
Comes furrowing all the Orient into gold"
Then she rises upon her elbow, and
notices how TIL light comes through
the chinks of tt e shutters. 1t must be

affrighted; the stars hide their dimin-
ished rays. Surely
''Yon gray lines

what? She herself hardly knows what
it is she hopes for.

To demand the will from Paul Rod

his possession than the fact of having
discovered by a chance a secret cup
board is absurd; yet not to demand it
seems madness. To see him. to reason
with him, to accuse him of it, is her one
desire; yet she can promise herself no
good from such an interview. She
signs as she thus seeks aimlessly to see
a satisfactory termination TO all her
meditations.
She is distract and silent all the morn
ing, taking small notice of what goes
on around her. Godfrey, perplexed too
in spirit, wanders vaguely from pillar to
post, unable to settle to anything

The Ideal Girl.

The ideal girl has never lost her child
soul and her chiId's faith. And this is the
reason, it may be, that the rose she wears
seems to love to lie upon her bosom, and
the canary at her voice wskens from his
dream Of the far away Hartz and greets
her with song so joyousIy happy that
every golden tinted feather seems a lutte
full of marvellous trills and quavers.
And this is the reason, too, no doubt, that
the children love to tell her all the wonder
fui secrets they have learned, listening SO
close to natures heart, and who shall say
that the tales of the fairies she unfoIds to
their believing souls are not truel At
least, you will never make the little ones
believe they are not true, for as they wan
dered into dreamland did not good fairy
meet them In her roseleaf chariot, drawn
by glow worms and butterflies, and did
not the fairy queen herself have the face
and voice of the ideal girl? Happy are

Suggestions to Breeders.

The brood mares and other breeding
females on the farm can net have too in
telligent care few weeks prior to produc-
ing their young. 1t is important that
their owner or attendant get we'll acquaint-
ed with them, and especially that these
dumb creatures have feeling of confidence
established that the offered assistance and
attention comes from friendly hands.
Much of the loss on the stock farm during
the breeding period arises from neglect to
tame the prospective mothers The work
of tanning all the farm animals is never
out of place. The work horses, the cows,
the sires, all under good control, the fat,
tening beasts, resting or eating quietly,
are objects worthy of the farmers earnest
concern.

Tomatoes.

Tomatoes can be grown from cuttings,
but experiments made on the Cornell ex-
detrimental grounds in New York showed
that nothing is gained by this practice In
a number of test cases, where cuttings and
seeding plants received like treatment the
seedlings yielded tie most and the earliest
fruit. The cuttings would in every case
reproduce whatever weaknesses or defects
their individual p og enitors had developed
and though tomatoes grown from seed
to run out, this tendency must be acceler-
ated If plants were generally grown from
cuttings.
