GREEN TOMATOES,

Few people know the value Of green
tomatoes, and they are seldom put to
any other use than making catchups
and pickles. They can be made to take
the place of other fruit In many ways,
which will be found great convenience
to housekeepers In q season when fruit
Is scarce, as In the present.
A very nice breakfast relish can be
prepared by sllclng full-grown green to-
matoes, soaking them In salt and water
for several hours and frying In butter.
Green tomato pie Ia very appealing,
and very similar to green apple pie. To
make II, line ple-pans with crust, put q
layer Of sliced green tomatoes 10,
sprinkle with sugar, put In another lay
er of tomatoes, cover with sugar, crate
nutmeg over aud add little water.
Bake In well-heated oven.
Green tomato preserves are very DELI
cate. Make syrup of one pound Of sugar
and pint of water for every pound OF
sliced green tomatoes. Put the latter
In aud cook slowly until clear; flavor
with lemon or ginger.
Spiced green tomatoes are made a.
other splced fruit, and will be found
delicious.
Green tomatoes make an excellent
sweet pickle. Select large, perfect TO-
matoes, slice thick, put In weak brine
over night, wash In cold water, drain
and wipe with q clean cloth. Weigh
the tomatoes, and allow one pound OF
sugar, and pint OF strong vinegar to
every three pounds. Make syrup OF the
sugar and vinegar, put the tomatoes 10,
add cloves, ailspice, cinnamon, mace
and celery seed to taste; let boil one
minute, take up, put Ia jars; boil the
syrup until thick, pour over and seal.
Green tomatoes make excellent pickles
and catchups, and are suitable add.
ton for all vegetable catchups, a. well
As mango stuffing and other similar
prepare atoms.

THINGS WORTH KNOWING,

II you want good dressing for the
dlplng-room or hall or kitchen floor, try
the following; It dries hard, glossy and
will not scratch: Que pint OF good
coach varnish, one pint Of boiled oil,
one-half pint Of turpentlne; mix.
When you buy wooden pals, the out
aide Ia painted and the inside plain.
Coat the inside thlckly with boiled oil
and put In the sun until the oil dries 10.
to the wood, and your pail Will last
twice ~ long and never get sour or
smell badly.
Apples and potatoes should never be
kept In the same cellar, says an sgri-
culturist, since the apples need well-
ventilated, cool room, and potatoes q
warmer place. The barrels OF apples
should be we'll headed up during the
winter and not unheaded until the ap-
Piles are wanted.
How TO STARCH SrIRrs.-Don't dip
collars and cuffs or shlrt-fronts 10 boiled
starch. You will DO sure 70 come across
Jumps when ironing. Rub the starch on
the wrong side with the fingers, and -
soon a. It begins to sppear on the right
side Il 10 sufficiently stsrched.
CURE FOR HIccoUGH.-The sufferer
closes the ears with the tips Of hls hh-
gers, making . firm pressure, and at
the same time 10 given water to drink
In small swallows. Usually tho hic-
cough ceases at once.
