ROYAL Buckwheats.

For generations it has been the GUS
tom to mix the batter for buckwheat
cakes with yeast or emptyings, retain
ing portion of the batter left over
from one morning to raise the cakes
for the following day.
If kept too warm, or not used
promptly, this batter becomes excess
siyely sour and Objectionable. Buck
wheat cakes raised by this means are
more often sour or heavy than light
and sweet. If eaten daily they dis
tress the stomach and cause skin erup-
tions and itching.
Instead of the old-fashioned way we
have been making buckwheat cakes
this winter with Royal Baking Pow
der, mixing the batter fresh daily, and
find the result wonderfully satisfac-
tory. They are uniformly light and
sweet, more palatable and wholesome,
and can be eaten continuously without
the slightest digestive inconvenience.
Besides they are mixed and baked in a
moment, requiring no time to rise.
Following is the receipt used:
Two cups of pure buckwheat flour
mot prepared" or mixed), one cup
Of wheat flour, two tablespoons OF Royal
Baking Powder and one-half teaspoon
full of salt, all sifted well together. Mix
with milk into thin batter and bake
at once ON hot griddle. Once prop
erly tested from this receipt, no other
buckwheat will find it's way to your
table. domestic Cookery.

100 Bus. Wheat From Two Acres.

This remarkable yield was reported by
Frank Close, Minnesota, on two acres of Mar
vel Spring Wheat. Speaking Of this wheat,
this new sort takes the cake. 1t is the greatest
cropping spring wheat in the world. Farmers
who tried it the past season believe seventy
five to one hundred bushels can be grown
from one acre, and are going to get this yield
for 1894. AT such yield wheat pays at SOC a
bushel. Salzer is the largest grower of vege-
table and farm seed in the world.
If you WILL CUT THIS OUT AND SEND TT with
&c postage to the John A. Salzer Seed Co.. La
Crosse, Wis, you will get free their mammoth
catalogue and a package of above spring
wheat.

The Catholics aud Prolestants of
East Tawas, Mich, are in row over
the public school. A short time ago
Father Brueck appeared at the school
and requested the Catholic scholars to
leave the room during prayers. Pro.

pended scholars for breaking the rules,
That is, leaving the room without per-
mission, which, it is claimed, would
have cheerfully been granted if asked
for. The school board was appealed

Professor Osgerby and censuring
Father Brueck severely. Now Father
Brueck will appeal to the circuit court
for mandamus prohibiting the re-

Adjoining the Addlcls place is the mag
