The household,
How to Mend Granite Ware.

Granite ware is in many respects the
finest material for kitchen utensils; ret
once o nick in enamel, and its days are
numbered. Tinsmiths say it cannot be
mended, and when once aleak the article
is worthless. In view Of the frst cost Of
the wear, this makes it rather an expen
sive material; and when my choice
cOffeepot, otherwise as good as new,
sprang aleak, set my wits to work to
meet the situation. For once they
proved equal to the emergency. A
small copper rivet was inserted and we'll
fattened down inside and out, the leak
stopped, and the coffee pot is still in
use. The teakettle spout was the next
article to give out, but as this could not
be got at in shape to rivet, a piece of
soft putty was used as patch on the
outside, round stick to fit the spout
being inserted while the patch was be-
lug pressed on. 1t took several days
to harden the putty, but the teakettle
was used right along, and shows no
signs of leaking. The riveting process
has since been tried on a number of
articles Of granite ware, such as wash
basins, waterpails, dishpans, etc. and is
a success in every instance.
Place the article to be mended upon
piece of iron. so that it will be per-
fectly solid, and pound the riyet down
fat, being careful to strike only the
rivet, as a blow on the granite ware
would cause the enamelto cleave off.
Granite ware should be handled
carefully, in order to prevent the enamel
cleaving. as often slight blow or fall
upon any sold substance will start the
porcelain like substance which forms
the enamel, and this soon makes rusty
spot, which after a time gives out, caus
ing leak.
To remove stains from granite ware
rub with damp cloth dipped in salt,
or if they prove obstinate use ashes in
the same way.

Decline of Literary Receptions.

The past winter has practically set tied one thing in New York--that the literary reception has had its day. Two years ago evenings" were held by all the well known literary people, but the practice was abused, and the following year saw the beginning of the end. This past season but a few literary tat homes have been given, and these lacked their former interest-so much so that next winter will see still smaller number. One cause of the unpopularity into which the literary reception in New York has fallen was it's shameful abuse. A liter
 arv woman would begin her season with a small coserie of her select friends, and so long as those same congenial spirits came together all went delightfully."- well.
 But one friend brought another, and after two or three weeks he would in turn bring q third, until at the close of the season the hostess would find her rooms oyerrun with lot of minor liter Rry lights whom she scarcely knew, and the spell was broken. Then the deaths of Miss Booth, Oliver Bell Bunce, the removal of Marion Harland made diff
 ference, and so for more than one reason the practice has died out. Perhaps the change will be for the better, since privi- legged friends will be more certain of agreeable companionships upon special evenings when the hostess signifies her intention to be at home for these, and these alone.

The capital stock of the company is one hundred thousand 100000 shares of ten (Sl0) dollars each.
 One-half of the capital stock will be sold in the Territoryof Arizona, payable in land adapted to the cultivation of sugar beets, sugarcane sorghum and sac charine products at the market price.
 The other half will be sold for cash, at not less than par, for the purpose of pur- chasing, importing and erecting machin- cry adapted to manufacturing domestic sugar.
 The fifty thousand shares reserved for the farmers can be paid for at any time within five years from the date of the organization in land or it's saccharine productions, such as sugar beets, sugar cane, sorghum, etc., etc., and the sub scribers will be entitled to draw divi- dend pro rata on payments made.
 The fifty thousand cash shares must be fully paid on delivery, and will be entitled to a full dividend sem-annually.
 It is reasonably expected that the company can declare dividend of 25 per cent per annum on current business, and have some land left.
 After the capital stock shall have been disposed of and one-half fully paid in cash, the company will be authorized to issue equal to one-half of the capital stock, bonds secured by mortgage, upon all the property of the company, pay able in twenty years, with interest at the rate of percentum per annum, payable semi-annually, for the purpose of devoting the proceeds to the purchase of land, and for no other purpose; pIo- vided, always, that these bonds cannot be issued nor mortgage on the prop erty executed without the approval of a majority of the shareholders.
 The Government of the United States offers to pay bounty of two cents per pound or 40 dollars per ton on domestic manufactured sugar, and to admit free of duty, until the first day of July, 1892, all machinery required for it's manu- facture.
 EThe Territorial Legislature, at its last session, passed an act exempting all land used in the cultivation of sugar beets, as well as the plant and machin- cry employed in the manufacture of do- mestic sugar, from taxation for ten years.
 We imported from foreign countries during the last fiscal year, sugar, mo- lasses, candy and confectionery to the value of $10l ,293, 1926, or sent away up wards of one hundred million dollars, which can be retained at home by en- couraging the manufacture of domestic sugar.
 The average yield of saccharine matter from sugar beets in France is only 6 per cent, in Germany 10 per cent.
 In California the average yield is 15 per cent.
 It IS confdentlybelieved that the soil and sun of Arizona will yield much larger polarization from sugar beets than France, Germany, California, or any other country; and if these premises are correct, the profits will exceed that of any other sugar factory in the United States.

@ THE ARIZONA SUGAR COMPANY o

The farmers who may subscribe to the stock of the company will have a vital and personal interest in the production of sugar beets.
 Farmers and capitalists can estimate the chances of loss and gain as we'll as the directors of the company, but it may be promised that agricultural land free from taxation forms safe investment, and that machinery which can be i'm ported free of duty and enjoys immu- nity from taxation, is only subject to loss by fire, which can be covered by insurance.
 Land in Arizona will produce at least twenty tons of sugar beets per acre, twice annually.
 The market price will depend upon the quantity of saccharine.
 Sugar beets require neither bagging nor storage; but are cash dt he miQ, and the company might even be able to ad- vance money on unencumbered land de. voted to their cultivation.
 It is a matter of consequence in some parts of Arizona that sugar beets ex- tract alkali from the soil better than any other production.
 After supplying the home market in Arizona with sugar, molasses, confeC- tions, etc., transportation is the most serious question, and the smaller bulk the production of the country can be reduced into the better for the producer.
 Sugar will bear transportation better than hay, grain, or ores.
 sugar mill at some railway depot with capacity of 100 tons per day, at S5 per ton for sugar beets, would be great benefit to the farmers and mer- chants of Arizona.
 The cooperative system of offering the farmers one-half of the capital stock payable in the productions required for the mill has worked well in Germany and France, and in fact the cooperative system in every country is the out growth of civilization.
 The farmers interest in the company will be a guarantee to the nonresident shareholders of vigilant watchfulness over the management. and by united ef- fort a staple production may be intro- duced in Arizona which will enliven the source of all permanent prosperity AGRICULTURE.
 It is not to be overlooked that after the sacCharine matter is extracted from sugar beets the residium forms excellent food for sheep, cattle, hogs, poultry, etc., and nothing that comes from the soil is wasted.
 The cultivation of sugar beets may be carried on by the least intelligent labor. Indians, Mexicaps, children may all be employed in transplanting the beets and gathering the crop. Only the mill re- quires intelligent labor.
 Sugar industries are being started in many States of the Union less adapted by nature to the growth of saccharine products than Arizona, and an effort on the part of the residents may encourage assistance from abroad.

An Extraordinary Advertisement.

From this he OK. ...ctod a small parcel done up in brown paper and, laying it on a convenient desk, said softly to the clerk, That's for the boss" Then he tiptoed out of the office. The parcel was at once taken to the lawyer, who tore of the wrappings and discovered a small china breakfast plate upon which lay what looked ex- actly like fried egg. The egg was suuashed up little bit on the plate ap- pareutly and it was movable. The plate was bona tide, but the alleged egg was made of papier mache. We all looked at it carefully, and after little prying about it was found that the yolk of the egg could be lifted.
 Under it lay what was apparently peanut, This was opened, and within it there was found a small sheet of white tissue paper upon which few letters Ntte laIutil Ntoiolc' lue lawyer went to the window, with everybody follow ing at his heels, examined the paper closely, and discovered upon it an ad- vertisemcnt of hair restOrer and pre- yentive of badness.

Supplying Moving Engines with wate


 By new invention which is being tried on some of the southern railroads 1t is thought possible that engines can be supplied with water when necessary without stopping. The system is ex- plained as follows: There is to be a tower over each well or stream that is to supply water, about forty feet high, and from this tower is suspended by a wire cable tank or bucket holding about 2,5O0 gallons of water. The same is raised by passing locomotives, and the water discharged automatically into storage tank. The bucket that con veys the water to the storage tank, when emptied, goes back automatically into the well or stream of supply, and is filled ready for the next locomotive. This saves the expense of stationary engine and fuel, with engine and such expense as attends the present system, and gives equal guarantee of reliable supply New York Telegram.
