THE FARM GARDEN.
How to Keep the Ground Occupied
from Spring to Fail.

How to Keep the Ground Occupied
from Spring to Fail.
The garden is the most productive
scre of the farm. If it is not, it should
be made so. 1t is the most indispensa-
BILE part of farm life. Half of our liv-
ing should come from our garden in
summer. Not one-half the country peo-
pie make an effort to have a garden.
There are some that start out we'll in
the spring, sow an abundance of seed
and never look at the garden again un-
til they think it is time they should
have results. They take look and can
not find any for the weeds have covered
the little plants. Then they come to the
conclusion that the seed did not grow.
They say all sorts of things about the
seedsmen, and NOW off the weeds and
wait until another spring, when they go
through the same process. Now this
is all wrong. TO keep the garden clean
we should begin early and continue the
cultivation until fall. 1t is impossible
tt destroy all the weeds while we are
cultivating the early vegeta bles. Lit
tie patches of weeds around the garden
whole garden next year. We should try
to plan SO as to keep all the ground &C.
cupied in the garden. 1t will require
but little more labor to cultivate cab
bage or turnip in a vacant place than
SIMPLY to cultivate to keep down the
weeds. You can SOW lettuce in July
and it will be nice in the fall. Cabbage
aud turnip can be transplanted into the
ground where the early peas and pota-
toes have grown; or you can set celery
and beets for winter use. Keep all the
ground occupied. If clean cultivation is
given. as should be done, the weeds will
be killed out and at the same time a
good crop secured. Thinning out plants
Is an important matter in gardening;
beets and carrots will not grow to any
size if left too thick. No vegetable but
the onion will stand crowding. If the
soil is rich enough onions will grow to
good size when five or six stand to-
gether; they will crowd each other out
of the ground all but the roots and will
bottom nicely. The onion maggot de-
stroys onions badly; good remedy is
to take the soil away from the bulbs nc
matter If the little onions tip over; SO
long as the roots are in the ground they
are all right. BY doing this the fly has
no chance to put it's eggs on the stalks
and then there are no maggots in the
bulbs.-Alrs. J. w. Ferries, in Farm and

,E MILK HEATER,

used about the creamery for cleansing
is important that nothing but pure wa
ter be used about either boiler or the
building. In case the weather is cold,
and to avoid putting too much steam
direct into the milk, it is important
then to heat the water under the re-
ceiver watts to at least half the necessary
temperature for separating.
know quite number of creameries
that have put this simple device in dur
ing the past summer, and find shat it
not only lessons labor, but that by it's
use better and more even temperature
can be obtained than by the use of the
tempering vat, aud the cleaning Of it
does not require pnc-ffth of the time
that the usual watts require. The cleans
ing is done by pumping warm water
through the pipes and then steam
ing them thoroughly for about three
minutes.
The illustration is simple and almost
explains itself. NJ P represents the
milk pipe or hose extending from the
milk vat to P, pump, which raises the
milk into the pipe joined onto the
pump. The milk naturally flows down
to the point II, where half-inch pipe,
S 2, is inserted into T large enough to
take an inch galvanized iron pipe, the
end being plugged up tight and num-
Der of small holes drilled in on side for
the escape of steam in small jets. The
half-inch pipe joins on the three-quar-
ter-inch by a reducer just below globe
valve which regulates the volume of
steam.
The pipes o o are to allow overflow
when the stopcock at F is partially
closed up, with the point o over milk
vat. The valve at base of pump also reg
ulates the flow of milk into separator
(S). In case the flow vat is at an eleva-
ton above separator, it is only neces-
sary to extend the pipe from point H
directly into vat, and the only thing
necessary would be a globe valve next
to vat, with the steam jet and (F)
faucet.
Not long since while at Sandusky
institute, and discussing the creamery
subject, I mentioned this labor-saving
device, and young man from Huron,
O., made special inquiry about it. In
less than week he had one in their
creamery, and writes that it is simply
"out of sight" in every respect, and
wishes to thank me for putting him
onto the idea. know of five creameries

making butter that grades first-class
everywhere and at all times, and for
such reasons do not hesitate to recon-
mend its use under the conditions noted

"OMAN'S HOTEL FOR NEW YORK.
dents took all my ideas and sketches
and submitted them to the students at
what wanted, or what Mrs. Fred Van
derbilt might think sensible, or Mr..
Glider might approve. We might all
make good suggestions, but art stu
dents are to live in the building, and
I want it to be adapted to the needs, and,
so far as possible, wishes of the women
who are to occupy it.
I'm the same manner consulted bust
ness women about Business Woman's
hotel. I talked with professional wom-
en-, with lawyers, journalists and teach
ers, and modelled the design of an apart
ment house and hotel for: them on their
own views of what was most practical
and desirable"
How much such a building as the
Business Woman's hotel is needed in
New York will be understood by any
woman who has ever attempted with
out an escort to get a nights lodging
at any respectable hotel in the city. 1t
is an unwritten law that no woman shall
be received unattended, not only in the
hotels, but in the first-class boarding
houses as we'll.
It sounds outrageous, does it not ?
But this custom prevails not only in
New York, but to certain extent in
Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago.
If the Business Woman's hotel sue
cessfully copes with this one unmiti-
~ ha 70 ~
woman, as it assuredly will, it will have
INDICATED its right to existence.
Renaissance is .he style of architec-
ture suggested for the main body of the
building, with an indication of the Greek
in the pillars and portico of the two
lower stories. The exterior of the ho-
tel, although somewhat resembling the
club building, in reality will differ from
it in every detail of interior design and
construction, aiming, as it does, to meet
the demand of the thousands. of profess
sional women desiring to limit expenses
and to gain comfortable and respect
able surroundings for the least expendi-
ture of money. The Club building will
rather aspire to the patronage of the
more luxurious class, who are willing to
pay lavishly for rich surroundings and
the conveniences afforded in the more
sumptuous building. ...
The Business Woman's hotel will be
divided into a series of small apart
ments and single rooms. The single
rooms will be arranged in groups of
six, with one parlor and bath for each
group. This arrangement enables each
girl to have her private parlor one
night in the week, and TO have pleas
ant place for reunion on Sundays.

Oranges Sailed Like Hams.

In order to insure the proper preserva-
ton of oranges and lemons, these fruits
are salted in Italy as hams are here
although the process is slightly diff
ferent. The fruit is culled while still
green and carefully examined. Those
found fawless are placed into salt wa
ter, where they are left for from three
to eight days, according to their state
of maturity. They are then put away
on shelves to dry and rest. Before be-
ing used they are placed into fresh wa
ter until the taste of salt is entirely
gone. This treatment preserves the
fruit with all its succulent and aromatic
qualities.

Evidence of Civilization.

Another instance of the rapid prog
ress the japanese are making in modern
civilization is shown in the fact that
the native babies have learned to CRY in
the improved American or European
fashion. In the palmy days, before
the Japs had learned so much, their
babies were models of propriety, and
were scarcely ever heard to whimper.
Now they bawi as long and as loudly as

COOKING SMALL FISH.
Mrs. ROrer Tells How to Best Prepare
Them for the Table.

Them for the Table.
In the Ladies' Home Journal Mrs. S.
T. Rorer, in telling how to fry the small
fish, quotes the old saying: Small fish
should swim twice-once in water and
once in OIL ''Smelts, trout, whitebait
perch and catfsh,' she says, ''are, per-
haps, more palatable fried than broiled
Small fish may be stripped-that is, the
intestines may be pushed out under the
gills, so that the fish may retain their
shape. Wash and dry, then dust with
salt and pepper, dip in egg and roll in
breadcrulnbs, or they may be rolled in
cornmeal. Have ready good-sized pan
with sufficient oil to cover. Put the
fish in frying basket, then into the oil
at a temperature Of 800 degrees Fahren.
heit, and cook for about five minutes.
Drain on brown paper and serve. Where
a small quantity of fat is used, and the
fish cooked on one side and then turned
and cooked on the other, the method
is really not frying is sauteing; the
result is much more indigestible than
real frying. Catfish are frequently fried
in this way without being dipped in
crumbs. Sunfish may be rolled in flour
or cornmeal and carefully fried in drip
ping, oil or lard. a mixture of dripping
and lard makes better frying material
than lard alone. A pure vegetable oil
is freer from danger of disease germs
than either. Never use butter for fry
ing fish; it boils at a low temperature,
consequently burns quickly; the butyr-
ic acid softens the fiber of the fish, de.
stroys the flavor, and causes it to be-
come soft as soon as taken from the

WOMAN AND HOME.
BIG HOTEL FOR WOMEN.
a Greatly Needed and Practical Phil
anthrOpic Scheme

a Greatly Needed and Practical Phil
anthroptc Scheme.
There are thousands of self-support-
ing working women in every large city
in the United States. In New York
alone there are 10000 professional wom-
en-, 100000 working girls and 9,70o stu
dents IN art schools, Conservatives and
colleges. These women, with the ex-
ceptlon of the very few thousands who
live with friends or relatives, find their
only substitute for homes in second
rate boardinghouses. The average
working girl finds the only solution of
the home problem in the hall bedroom.
Since the advent of the professional
woman on the city's horizon, philan-
thropic men and women have been striv-
ing to make room cor her and find her a
comfortable abiding place.
In Chicago, San Francisco and Den
yer this has been achieved in modest
way, but nothing adequate to the needs
OF New York has been suggested or in
any way brought before the public I'M
til Mrs. Dunlop Hopkins conceived the
idea Of erecting a series of buildings.
handsome, spacious, comfortable and
practical, adapted to the requirements
of the working women of New York.
Designs for the first four of the Sc
ries, the business Woman's hotel, the
Art Students home, the Clubhouse and
the model tenement, are already COM
pleted. 1t is calculated that at least
two, if not the entire series, will be
we'll under way early in the spring.
The architects for this scheme of
women's buildings, which is the most
elaborate in the United States. if not
in the world, are Miss Mary Cannon
and Miss Alice Hands, partners. friends
and former pupils of the New York
school of applied design. The faith
full work, tireless energy, enthusiasm
and artistic skill which these young
women have brought to bear upon
their work in the past year alone is
something colossal.
The work throughout, in ARCHITECT
tural style and artistic interior finish,
is on the largest scale that has ever
been undertaken by women architects
in any country. From it's inception
the plan has been entirely in the hands
of women-women working for women.
''The crying need Of the hour" Mrs.
Hopkins said, in speaking of this vast
scheme to New York Journal reporter,
"is the providing of proper home for
the hosts of working women that are
filling up our cities. Not one home or
building, but many of them.

A Profitable Garden Crop.

Spinach is an important crop in our
market gardens and one of the most
easily managed of vegetables, requiring
but little culture, and may be had fit
for use the entire season. The main
crop is sown in August OF September
for spring use, and, although ex-
tre1nely hard, requires to be protected
by light covering of hay or straw
during the winter. For summer use
it may be>sown at intervals of two or
three weeks, from April to August.
