One of the most distastcful of

mending-for the inch darn that would
have been all sufficient three weeks
earlier now demands a full half hour
of steady work that raises strong
doubts as to whether the game is
worth the candle, while toes and
heels have come through stockings
that needed only a few stitches when
first noticed. The woman who heSi-
tates about mending at the outset,

is assuredly lost so far as any further
satisfaction in the neglected garments
is concerned. and every time they are
washed fresh gaps are sure to appear.
The smallest thin place should be
darned as evenly as though it were
embroidery, and the darning stitch is
often used for this purpose. When
fine and regular, the work is really

HOW TO SALT BUTTER.

Mr.. T. G. Curtis gives the following
method of sailing butter: II assume
that it is generally considered that
butter absorbs salt, which it does not.
In proof whereof l will state that
some two months ago l worked up a
pound of butter into d solid ball with
cut salt. This butter was kept i'm
mel sed in strong brine until the pres
ent time, when 1 found, on cutting it
open, no trace of salt except near the
outer surface of the ball. Salt prop
erly exists in butter only as dissolved
in the water remaining in butter; if
found in the butter in an undissolved
state, objection is made by any good
Judge of butter. From this reasoning
it will be seen that the amount of
salt in butter depends somewhat upon
the amount of water in the butter
when the salt is added. Let us sup
pose we have a quantity of drained
granular butter with 26 per cent. of
wa ter in it-our object is to salt only
half the water, but that is an impoS-
sibility; we must salt all the water
in the butter. Hence, If we are re-
quired to have one ounce to the pound
in the finished product, twice as much
salt must be taken, for half Of it will
come out Ill eAuueu Dflue. 1neTe IL
no danger of getting in too much salt
provided no more salt is put in than
will dissolve. Sometimes twenty
pounds of butter, after sailing in the
granular state, will exude three OF
four quarts on revolving the churr
and working it into mass, and
sometimes not more than one pint
The difference is undoubtedly in the
fineness or coarseness of the granules
when the salt is added"

FATTENING RATIONS.

The president of the National Swine
Breeders association at Chicago gave
the following as his experience in the
selection of an effective ration for
fattening pigs: "The incest food l ever
gave for slaughtering is wheat and
oats ground together about half and
half. 1t does not require great deal
of it and l don't know but it is as
cheap as anything / have used" To
which replied one Mr.. Grossman:
That has been my experience exactly.
l have raised wheat and oats together
for five years, and l grind it and feed
it. in that way. l cannot get good
shorts" Another member said: "Forty
years ago / noticed that my hogs got
into the newly planted corn and rooted
it up and did better than with what
1 gave them dry; so / started giving
soaked corn, and have done it ever
since; and l never saw pigs grow finer.
quicker, easier than they do" Then
the president put in: "Allow me to
suggest, by way of personal experience
that you can put too much salt and
ashes before hogs. ! don't think there,
is any danger if it is kept always by
them. l use four pats of ashes (good
wood ashes) to one of salt. Nothirs 6:

THE REMEDIAL USES OF APPLES

In all temperate climates the apple
grows freely, and might be obtained
in practically unlimited quantities.
That it is not more used than it is is
probably due to the fact that being
so plenty it is undervalued. Yet al
most everyone likes the fruit in some
fashion, and it should form a part of
at least two meals out Of every three
during the year round; for even when
the fresh fruit is not in season, canned,
dried or "evaporated" apples may al
ways be had.
Chemically" says a writer in the
North American Practitioner, "the ap-
pie is composed of vegetable fibre,
albumcn, sugar, gum, chlorophyl.
malic acid, gallo acid, lime and water.
Furthermore, the German analysts
say that the apple contains a larger
percentage of phosphorus than any
other fruit or. vegetable. The phos-
phorus is admirably adapted for re-
newing the essential nervous matter
lecithine-of the brain and spinal cord.
1t is perhaps for this reason-thOugh
but rudely understood-that the old
Scandinavian traditions represent the
apple as the food of gods, who, when
they felt themselves to be growing
feeble and infirm, reSorted to this fruit
to renew their powers of mind and
BODY
Not only to the phosphorus, but the
| acids of the apple are of singular Use
for persons of sedentary habits, whose
| livers are apt to be too slow of action.
These acids aid the liver in its work
of eliminating from the body the nox-
ious matters, which, if retained, would
make the brain heavy and dull, or in
time, would cause rheumatism, jaun-
dice, or skin eruptions, and other al
lied troubles.
The malic acid of apples, either raw
or cooked, will neutralize any excess
of chalky matter engendered by eating
too much meat.
Ripe apples are probably the least
fermentable of all fruits, except pos,
sibly the banana. For this reason
ripe and sound apples may be eaten
| by most persons in even the hottest
weather, but even the apple is safest
when cooked.
We have the support of eminent
medical authority in saying that the
| most healthful way to cook apples is
to pare and core them, and bake in a
moderate oven. If the apple is of q
quite sour variety it may be necessary
to add q little sugar, putting about
saltspoonful in the hollow whence
the core was extracted. The next best
way to cook them is stewing. Con
trary to common belief, apples baked
in their skins are the least healthful
of cooked apples.-Harper's Bazaar.
